A/N:  And then there was Chapter 9.  There's more of Jason and Bra in this chapter.  But there's Bra and Goten also.  Don't wanna say anything else and spoil it for you so I'll just let you guys read. 

Chapter 9: Jason to the Rescue

I ran out the stadium gates in displeasure, completely overlooking Jason's presence at a nearby food stand.

"Hey Bra!"

I reluctantly stopped in my tracks to see him hollering at me from nearby.

"What's the rush?" he asked.

He trailed over to where I stood and it didn't take him long to observe that I was upset.

"Is something the matter? Wanna go somewhere and talk?" he asked.

I just nodded my head in agreement and followed him uselessly towards his ride.  Ten minutes later we were cruising into the parking lot of his crib where he invited me inside and treated me to a beer.

"Take a seat on the couch," he said before heading into the kitchen where I heard him fumbling around in the refrigerator. Five minutes later he brought out some popcorn and a compact disc, which he popped into a DVD player. He then took a seat on the couch next to me and threw his right hand across my shoulders.  I didn't flinch when he pulled me closer to him trying to break my uneasy tension.

"So, wanna tell me what's wrong?" he asked worriedly.

His hazel eyes pierced deep into mine as if trying to read my sorrowful thoughts. It was patently obvious his concern was genuine and the softness in his eyes made me feel at such ease. How could I not fall for a guy like him, I thought to myself gruelingly, snuggling my body just an inch more closely. "Jason?" I finished my questioning uncertainty by brushing my lips hungrily against his. I felt his body stiffen tensely under my breast as our kisses began to deepen with eager desire. My tongue grazed against his ever so slightly while his lips willingly connected with mine. 

Grabbing fistfuls of his hair, I pulled Jason anxiously above me easing his brawny body on top of mine. I pried inquisitively under the snaps of his shirt seeking to explore the warmth of his perspiring flesh.  It was like my fingers had a mind of their own, as they fumbled to loosen the snugly buttoned snaps.

"Whoa, slow down," Jason whispered breathlessly.
He reluctantly pushed himself away from me and held me securely by the shoulders.
"Bra, you're coming on really strong."

"Just the way you like it I'm sure," I replied teasingly, pulling my red t-shirt from over my shoulders.

"What are you doing?"  Jason asked uneasily.  "Put your clothes back on."

"Why are you so nervous?" I inquired.  "It's not like we're going get caught, right?"

"It's not that, it's just…" He clasped my face softly by the chin urging my lips softly against his.  He sighed heavily in a form of disinclination before pulling himself away again.  "It's just that I don't want you to get hurt."  He caressed the side of my cheek lovingly and looked at me disquietingly with his hazel-brown eyes. "Bra, I'm sure you're aware that I have deep feelings for you by now," Jason confessed.  "And I'll be lying if I stated that a part of me isn't dying to be with you at this very moment." He brushed a lazy hair away from my face slightly before clasping my hands into his. "But a part of me knows that this just isn't like you."

"I think someone has an objection to that," I responded jokingly staring at the huge bulge protruding from his pants.

"Yeah, well he doesn't have a say this time around," Jason replied blushing profusely. "Now come on, let me take you home."

"Why can't all guys be as nice as you?"  I asked wishfully.

"Actually, I'm not even this nice."

"Is that so?" I replied surprisingly.

"Yeah, I'm usually the one-night-stand kind of guy," Jason confessed guiltily.  "But my mom always told me that one day that'll all change."  He turned around and smiled at me admiringly ceasing all conversation.

"You still haven't put on you t-shirt yet?  Come on, I gotta take you home remember." He commented breaking the sudden tension of the awkward silence. 

"Umm yes, let's go."  I threw on my t-shirt hurriedly and followed Jason out his front door.

****

"Well, I'll see you in school on Monday," Jason suggested. He leaned forward and kissed me lightly on the cheek. I hugged him tightly before jumping out of his car and watched as he sped away down the street. I whispered thanks to the air cheerfully then flew up to my bedroom window. I stepped inside my room unknowingly of the male presence sleeping soundly on my bed.

It was night already.  I couldn't believe I had spent so much time at Jason's abode.  My thoughts flashed back to the incident, which had occurred that evening.  Ah yes.  Trunks and Goten… they were bickering over me, I thought.  I had never been so embarrassed in my life.

I crept to the edge of the bed carefully trying not to topple over anything within the darkness.  I sighed into my thoughts sadly, making myself comfortable on the right side of my bed.

"Bra?"

I jumped off my bed fearfully searching clumsily for a lamp's switch within the darkness.  "Who's there?"  I formed two fists bracingly swinging my arms blindly, trying my best to connect.

"Bra, it's only me," a voice assured softly tightening a grasp upon my trembling shoulders.

"Goten?"  My hand stretched towards a light switch reflexively aiming to gain better sight of his face.  But, his masculine arms rained down upon me possessively embracing me snugly towards his chest.

"Yes it's me.  I've been waiting in your room for hours.  I fell asleep on your bed waiting for you to return."

"But…"

"Listen, I'm sorry Bra," he cut me off facing me towards him.  "I'm such a jerk."

"And you now realized that?"

"Bra…" he cut his sentence short giving me a kiss, which surprised me.  He pulled me back towards the bed clumsily behind him.  "I really like you and I just wanted you to know that.  And…" It was my turn to cut his eager thoughts as I kissed him back longingly.  We tugged at each other's clothes in uncertainty seeking more of each other in the concealing darkness.

****************************************

A/N: Well, what do you guys think?  I know it's a bit of a cliffhanger.  It may be little while before I update again since this was the last chapter I wrote before I discontinued the story.  I have decided to write the additional chapters as I told you before.  So there's no need to worry Hejah and Da_Blue_Monk.  Hopefully I'll be able to do a better job.  Oh, and I may utilize some of your ideas (I'm speaking of everyone's ideas). 

What's going to happen with Bra and Goten?  Oh and what about Jason?  He seems like a pretty nice guy to fall for… would she fall for him?  Who knows.  When the next chappie comes we'll see.
