~7~ 1-2, I got a crush on you
Jess woke up by a loud snore from Michael; he looked at his watch and saw that it was 8.30 in the morning. He lay against a large tree from which he could feel the roots underneath him that were sticking in his skin. He wanted to stretch, but then noticed that Rory was lying with her head in his lap, he hadn't even notice before. He looked at her sleeping form and realized how innocent she looked when she was asleep; maybe that's what he like the most about her. She didn't care how she acted around guys, she just wanted to be herself, not trying to impress the boys around her, like the girls he used to know.
He sat still, not wanting to wake Rory up, luckily his bag lay next to him, and he opened it and grabbed a book out. He accidentally touched Rory's cheek when he opened the book. He shivered from the touch under his fingers as he softly stroked her cheek. He didn't want to do it, but he couldn't stop his fingers from moving over her soft and warm skin.
Slowly Rory's eyes started to flutter, Jess didn't notice it, he was caught in his feelings that were messing with his mind. When Rory finally had a clear vision of the world around her she recognized the pair of eyes that were looking at her but seemed so far away, she knew it was wrong of her to be here to lay there in his lap while he was stroking her cheek, she felt it...that's why she woke up.
She didn't try to stop him; she had ghost bumps all over her body by the warm touch of his fingers. Her eyes closed again, she wanted to stop the time, and lay there forever in his arms. But she knew that she couldn't stop it, she had a boyfriend...GOD DEAN! Her eyes sprung open as she again looked in Jess' eyes.
Suddenly Jess' thoughts were disturbed by the movement Rory made under his touch. He smiled as he saw her sleepy eyes; he didn't even know that he was still stroking her cheek till she waved his hand away with her own.
He ran his hand trough his hair that was sticky and dirty from the sand. "Morning" He said avoiding what happened earlier.
Rory sat up as she saw Michael and Lane still asleep, she didn't want to look at Jess, she felt guilty towards Dean for the feelings that she just had felt.
She rubbed the sleep from her eyes as she stood up to drink something; she then remembered the night and stopped walking... What if the thing or person was still around here somewhere?
"What's wrong?" Jess asked as he followed every move Rory made.
"Do you think that thing or person from last night is still here?" Rory asked as she looked around.
Jess also stood up as he looked at their bags, it seemed like that they still had everything.
"I don't know, but one thing is sure, the thing didn't want us." He said laughing.
Rory looked at him, she didn't understand why he was laughing, she gave him an angry look and quickly turned around.
"Do you want to know what it was?" Jess said, still laughing.
"What? Do you know WHAT it was?" Rory asked surprised. Jess nodded his head and sat down again, stuffing his book back in his bag.
"Well, what was it then?" Rory asked impatient.
"Walk to your right" He said dry; Rory did what he said but didn't get what he was saying to her.
"What do I have to see?" She said getting annoyed.
"Take a few steps forward and you'll see." He said laughing again.
Rory sighed, but still did what Jess said, a smile spread upon her face as she saw the sight before her. For her eyes she saw a couple lying on the ground, completely naked, and curled up around each other. It was clear that they had a pretty good night. Rory giggled as she looked away, not wanting to disturb them.
"I figure that it was them." He said smirking. Rory nodded her head as she looked at him, they both couldn't hold their laughter anymore and bursted it out.
They heard moans from the side were Lane and Michael were lying; they obviously were woken up from the loud laughing sounds.
"What's going on?" Michael asked sleepy, rubbing in his eyes.
Rory looked at Jess, she wasn't sure if she could tell them...well of course she could tell them...but she wasn't sure if she wanted to tell them. She tried not to think about it, but something said to her that she had it to keep it for Jess and herself, that they shared a secret together.
"Nothing, Jess had a bad dream, and he woke up with a loud sound." Rory explained.
Jess gave her an angry shot, she was lying to them, and he couldn't figure out why she would do that, not that he mind of course...

"Here is your bread and water, the next post is 3 hours away from here, so eat as much as you can, it's gonna take a long time to get there." Mrs. Watson explained to Lane.
Lane nodded her head, not taking in all the information that she just got, she was so unbelievable hungry that she couldn't concentrate anymore.
Rory was already sitting on the ground, eating her bread with cheese; she thought it was disgusting and dry.
"I just can't believe people eat this EVERY morning." Rory sighed as she looked at her bread in her hands, she was hungry, but the bread made her stomach crazy, it wasn't used to this 'healthy' food.
"Some people can't believe that you eat pancakes every morning." Lane said smirking as she took a bite of her own bread.
Rory took a sneaky glance at Jess but then quickly looked away when she saw that Jess was doing the same. She felt her cheeks turning red as she quickly tried to hide it with her hands on her face.
"You know, I thought this was really exiting and all...but now we are actually doing it...it's really boring and I don't think I can hold it any longer." Lane complained.
Rory let it all coming over her, she knew that what Lane said was true, but she didn't thought that this 'trip' was stupid, she actually enjoyed it and she couldn't deny it.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Jess and Michael were walking behind Rory and Lane; they both didn't talk as they stared to the ground, looking for something to say. They could clearly hear Rory and Lane talking about their music passion. Jess would really like to join their conversation, but the music they were talking about was nothing for Michael, so he decided to keep him some company...not that it was necessary because they both didn't know anything to say.
"So...do you have a girlfriend...or boyfriend?" Jess asked to break the silent.
"No, but I had one...but she moved when I was 10." Michael said, and somehow Jess felt sorry for him, Michael was so completely different from him. Jess was the 'bad' boy from New York that had a reputation that he could get almost every girl when he wanted it. And here he was...walking next to Michael who was the complete opposite from him, and somehow...he envied him.
"Do you?" Michael asked, getting Jess out of his thoughts.
Jess shook his head, looking at Rory who was now singing with Lane about a song of 'the Clash' He grinned as he remembered the lyrics.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
I wanna get serious right away
1-2, I got a crush on you
what you doin' today or any other day?
1-2, I got a crush on you

1-2, I got a crush on you
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Jess...JESS?" Michael shouted, Rory and Lane looked back at them as he again snapped out of his thoughts.
"Huh?" Jess said, acting cool
"Have you've ever had a girlfriend or boyfriend?" Michael asked.
Jess softly pushed Michael to the side.
"Of course I've had a girlfriend; I think it stopped by 25." Jess said cool.
"25?"
"Jup, why are you looking at me like that?" Jess asked Michael as he saw him looking.
"Don't you think that's many?" Michael asked shocked.
Jess shrugged as he saw that Rory was still looking at him, he could see that she was shocked too, he smiled at her as she gave him a small smile back, then turning back at her conversation with Lane.
