Chapter Forty: Dave's P.O.V.

At 6:30 the next morning, I found myself sitting next to Jessie on a flight to Boston.

"I'm sorry you had to get up this early," she apologized.

"There's nothing you could do, Jess. It's not your fault that this was the only flight today. Now get some sleep. I want you to have enough energy to show me around your hometown."

She smiled lightly before closing her eyes and leaning her head against y shoulder. I soon followed suit and also went to sleep.

"Excuse me, sir," a female voice said. "We have landed."

I opened my eyes to see a flight attendant standing in front of me. "Thanks," I replied before turning to Jessie. "Jess, you're home," I whispered in her ear.

Her eyes stayed closed as her arms stretched high. "What time is it?"

"9:30," I yawned and noticed that everyone else was off the plane. "Come on, we better go or we're gonna be on the next flight to who knows where."

We got off the plane and caught a cab to Jessie's house; a two story house with a two car garage and a wrap-around porch.

"Nice house," I told her.

"Not nearly as nice as yours, but it'll do," she replied, unlocking the front door. "Just set your stuff down here and I'll take it upstairs later,"

"Don't worry about it, Jess. I can take it up myself."

A grin slowly grew on Jessie's face. "Remember when I was a guest in your house, you could tell what to do?" she asked, wrapping her arms around my neck as I nodded. "And like I said, payback's a bitch. Leave your stuff down here," she smiled and kissed me but quickly pulled away.

"What?" I questioned.

"Open your mouth," she ordered.

I stared at her in confusion.

"Open your mouth and stick out your tongue," she repeated.

I smiled, realizing why she had pulled away. I clicked the post in my tongue against my teeth before showing it to Jess.

"When did you put that in?"

"Just this morning. Did you like it?"

"I don't know. I'll have to try it again," she said and pressed her lips against mine.

I slid my tongue into her mouth and felt the ring click against her teeth. My hands ran through her soft, dark hair and eventually made their way down to her waist. Electric impulses surged through my body from the second that her lips touched mine, and they weren't about to stop.

Thoughts of taking Jessie upstairs to the bedroom raced through my head. That's when I knew I had to stop. I slowly pulled away fro her as she looked up at me.

"That," she said and paused, "was absolutely mind-blowing. You'd better keep that in as long as you're with me. But right now, I'm gonna go upstairs and grab a shower. Make yourself at home," she told me before walking upstairs.

I began walking around the house and soon found the kitchen. I opened the refrigerator and found nothing but bottled water and case of soda.

"This is going to be a problem," I said to myself as the doorbell rang.

"Dave, could you get that?" Jessie yelled, obviously not having jumped in the shower yet.

"Sure," I yelled back while walking to the front door. I opened to find, to my surprise, John Cena. John and I were good friends back in OVW and when I was on Smackdown! but since then we'd lost touch.

"Dave, man, I didn't know you moved to Boston," he told me.

"I didn't, this is actually my girlfriend's house," I replied proudly. I could definitely get used to saying that.
