A/N: Thanks to XxXCocoaPuffXxX and TheWraith4 for their lovely comments. "Broken" by Seether Featuring Amy Lee is used in this story because I think it is absolutely beautiful.
Chapter 11
The weekend soon came, and Chuckie had not spoken with his friends or his sister. Kimi and Chuckie were civil in front of their parents, but that was as far as the civility went. Chuckie and Kimi would leave the table and not speak another word to each other, and Kimi felt horrible about it. She rarely saw Chuckie angry, and she didn't like him being so angry at her. She was the one he was most angry with because he still respected Tommy, Dil was younger, and Phil had scared him. Kimi didn't know much on how Chuckie felt on Lil, but she knew that he was seriously hacked with her.
Chuckie left on Friday and told his parents that he was going to Tommy's--they had no idea that Chuckie was feuding with his friends--and was given permission to leave. So, Chuckie drove out to Marina's to stay most of the weekend; he had the weekend off from work for a change.
Seeing Marina immediately lifted Chuckie's low spirits, and she greeted him with a gentle kiss. He savored the moment before they went inside. For once in a long time, Marina hadn't thrown a party, and she wasn't planning on having any more parties ever again. She saw no need to have company when Chuckie could give her as much company as she ever got from the party-goers; he gave her more company than she would ever need.
Chuckie and Marina wasted no time in racing upstairs to Marina's bedroom, where they quickly shut the door behind them. Inside, both pulled clothes off as they exchanged deep, deep kisses. Marina, left in an aqua-colored satiny bra, had her hands in Chuckie's shaggy hair as her mouth moved past his. Marina couldn't think of anything better than being with Chuckie as they fell onto her soft bed.
Marina landed on top of Chuckie, and she nuzzled his neck. Chuckie held Marina against his body as he inhaled the scent of her hair; it was a nice fruit blend. Marina began to kiss Chuckie's neck and move down to his chest before he pulled her mouth back up to meet his.
Marina held onto Chuckie's shoulders as their kisses lingered and as he rolled her down onto the mattress. His hair tickled her cheeks as his fingertips glided down her body. She pulled him down against her and stared into his brown eyes; there was so much emotion in his eyes. She brushed her lips against his, which sent shivers up both of their spines. Then, Marina leaned back as Chuckie began to kiss up her neck.
Kimi sat at home, bored out of her mind. So, she picked up the phone to see if anyone was on it. No one was, so she dialed Phil's cell phone. There was three rings, then a breathy, "Hello."
Kimi's first thought was not a good one when she heard the Phil's breathless voice over the phone. "Phil, it's Kimi," she answered.
"Hey, Kimi, what's up?"
"Nothing much except that I'm seriously bored."
"Do you want me to come get you and bring you out here? We could watch movies or something." Phil suggested.
"I'd love that." Kimi realized what she'd said and figured she'd better add more to it. "I have to get out of this house before I die of boredom."
"I'll be there in no time." Phil said with a smile on his face. He knew that Kimi couldn't see the smile, but he was fine with that. He was sure she heard it in his voice; he was really happy to have Kimi nearly beg to come over. Plus, no one was at his house to screw up any plan of him kissing Kimi.
Kimi didn't have to wait long for Phil to get there, but she was glad for that. She was waiting outside for him; she'd told her parents that she was going to Phil and Lil's to hang out, and they didn't protest. The figured that Lil would be there and was the one Kimi was going to hang out with. They had no idea that Kimi preferred to see Phil because she was so in love with him.
Kimi climbed into Phil's truck, and smiled at him. "Hey," she greeted him.
"Hey chick," he replied grinning at her.
Phil took the truck out of park as soon as Kimi closed her door and buckled her seatbelt. "So, where's brother?" Phil asked making quick conversation in the fact that Chuckie's truck was missing from the driveway. "Working?"
"I'd say yes if I didn't have a nagging feeling that isn't where he is."
"Ah, you think he's with Marina." Phil replied softly.
"Yea, and I don't think there's any reason to stop him. He all ready hates me." Kimi replied settling down into the seat of Phil' truck.
Phil glanced over at her. "He can't 'hate' you."
Kimi looked over at Phil by the pale, blue light of the radio. "He does; we're only civil to each other during dinner so that our parents don't find out he's having sex."
Phil let out a sigh. "I thought my relationship with Lil was bad," he said.
Kimi sighed as well. "I don't know how it got this bad, Phil. It didn't used to be. I just don't trust that girl because she hasn't been associated with such good press around school."
"Yea, she has been in trouble for various things." Phil added. "Like, the spray paint all over the girl's locker room. Her friends were the ones to do that. So, she was in on it as well I'd suppose."
"Sure." Kimi replied.
It was only a few minutes later that Phil's truck pulled into the driveway to his house. He and Kimi hopped out, and he pulled out his keys. He unlocked the front door and opened the door for Kimi. She smiled as she walked in, and he trailed behind her. Phil flipped the light switch on, and the house filled with light. He closed the door and locked it up.
"So, what do you want do?" Phil asked as he put his keys away in his back pocket.
Kimi looked over at Phil and took in every detail of his attire; he had on a shirt that had the school crest on it, and it surprised Kimi. But, he had on worn blue jeans and a studded belt to match the studded wrist bands on his wrists. Phil also had black Chuck Taylor Converse shoes on. Kimi had to admit that even normal, Phil was very sexy.
"I don't know, you live here. Surprise me." Kimi told him.
Phil grinned. 'We can't do what I have in mind, so I'm not sure.'
"How about we sing?"
"All right." Kimi replied happily; singing along with Phil made her feel really good.
Phil led Kimi up to his bedroom and opened the door. He turned on the light and blushed at the mess that was inside. "Sorry that it's messy."
Kimi laughed. "Please, it's not so bad."
Phil pushed clean clothes there were lying in the floor out of the way. He turned and saw Kimi laughing at his antics. "It's fine, really."
Phil stood up straight and grabbed his acoustic guitar off of its stand. He walked over to his bed and sat by his pillows. Kimi sat at the foot of his bed and waited for Phil as he tuned his guitar to fit the song he was about to play. Finally, Phil started playing the opening chords to "Broken" by Seether featuring Amy Lee. "I wanted you to know, I love the way you laugh. I wanna hold you high and steal your pain away. I keep your photograph, and I know it serves me well." Phil began the song.
Kimi watched him closely and felt her heart skip every line, especially since she wished Phil would say things along the lines of the song in regular conversation. Her heart was beating so fast that she wasn't sure that she could come in on the chorus. But, she kept it together. "Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome, and I don't feel right when you're gone away. You've gone away. Kimi and Phil sang together with perfect blending voices.
Phil smiled and watched as Kimi sang Amy Lee's verse. "The worst is over now, and we can breathe again. I wanna hold you high and steal my pain away. There's so much left to learn, and no one left to find. I wanna hold you high and steal your pain."
The two friends began the chorus again, and Phil went into the guitar solo. Kimi watched with complete awe, and she noticed Phil smiled at her. She even swore he winked at her, but she couldn't be for sure.
The song ended too soon, and Phil set his guitar back on its stand. He looked over at Kimi and felt his mouth go dry. There was so much that he wanted to share with her, but he didn't have the courage to do so. So, he walked back over to where he had been sitting on his bed.
Kimi picked at the frayed hem on the cuff of her jean pant leg. "Phil," she said with a burning question in her mind.
"Yea." Phil replied to her.
"Does it seem weird that all of our friends or family are having sex?" Kimi asked wearily still focused on her pants hem.
Phil shifted uncomfortably. "Nah, it's normal teenager reaction to each other," he replied.
Kimi forced herself to stare Phil in the face; she wouldn't let her embarrassment shield her from the truth. She had to know the truth about Phil, especially since he hadn't seemed appalled by the question she'd asked. "Are you a virgin?"
Phil froze for a moment and headed for his door. "Are you thirsty," he muttered as he inched towards the open door frame.
Phil was halfway out of the door when Kimi called, "Walking away automatically means 'yes.'"
Kimi heard Phil sigh, and she watched him step back into the room. He wouldn't look her in the eye as he crossed his arms over his chest. "Why do you want to know?"
"I'm curious." Kimi left it at that; she didn't feel it was right to add that she was dying to know if she'd be his first because she didn't know if he had any interest in her at all.
Phil took a few steps closer to Kimi. 'Why is she curious,' he wondered. 'Could she be interested in me that way? God, I hope so.' He took a deep breath and shakily replied, "Yea, I am." He hated to admit it, but it was the truth.
Phil saw Kimi exhale, and he wondered what she was up to. "Are you," he asked.
Kimi stared up into his blue eyes and nodded. "Yes," she replied. "I was afraid I was the only one of our friends who was."
Phil sat down beside her and noticed her outfit; it was a red camisole made out of silky material over rugged jeans. He swallowed hard as he put his hand over Kimi's right hand, which was sitting on her knee. He squeezed her hand and told her, "You aren't the only one, Kimi."
Kimi let out a smile then pulled her hand out of Phil's. "I figured you wouldn't be."
"Why?" Phil asked with a curiosity.
Kimi ran her fingers in Phil's hair, and he stiffened up at her unexpected touch. "Just everything about you seems like what girls want."
Phil honestly didn't know what to do; Kimi had just hit on him, and he was in shock. For so long, he'd wanted her attention. Now, he had it and didn't know what to do with it. So, he leaned down and brushed his lips against Kimi's.
The kiss sent shivers up Phil's spine as well as Kimi's. She immediately wrapped her arms around Phil's neck and pushed the kiss further. His lips were full and demanded to be kissed more than once. She felt his hands on her back, holding her against him.
Kimi pushed Phil down against his bed and pulled away from the kiss. Heat radiated throughout her body, and Kimi enjoyed it. She couldn't stop the rush that led to what she said. She whispered into Phil's ear, "Let's see what the big deal about sex is."
Phil stared into Kimi's green eyes in disbelief that he wasn't dreaming. Everything was happening like a dream, and he certainly didn't want to wake up if it was. He rolled Kimi down against the mattress and found himself straddling her. Quickly, he hopped off of his bed and walked over to the door.
Kimi sat up and asked, "What's the matter?"
Phil shut and locked his door. "I just wanted to be prepared," he said as he stumbled a little. The rush of hormones had caused him to be far more clumsier than he was. He stopped by his nightstand and opened the drawer. Kimi saw a box in the drawer and stared up Phil. "You're sure you're a virgin," she asked at the sight of the condom box in Phil's nightstand.
Phil nodded with a flush to his face. "Yea, Lil bought these and hid them in my room for her boyfriend."
Kimi made a face, and she and Phil laughed. Phil climbed onto the bed and straddled Kimi's legs. He leaned down and kissed her hard before he pulled his mouth away from hers. "Even if we're gonna share our first time, there's no reason not to be safe about it," he explained.
Kimi slipped her camisole off, and Phil pulled his t-shirt away. His hair frizzed up a little bit from the static, and Kimi laughed. She smoothed his hair down before running her hands down his toned chest. Phil leaned down against Kimi, and she inhaled at the touch of his bare torso against hers. It made her heart flip, and she pressed her mouth against Phil's, willing a very deep kiss. Both of them felt more than ready for what was to come.
