Love Ridden

Chapter Three

Endless Summer

Emma sat on the a chair at the table. Jay was still sleeping, it was of course, only 10 a.m. Emma sipped the coffee she got with her breakfast. That's why she was awake. The front desk called asking if they wanted breakfast. Emma told them to just send up some pancakes and lots of coffee.

Emma stood up and walked over to her bag and pulled out her cell phone. "3 missed calls?" Emma said out loud to herself. She looked through the missed call log, "Unknown...Unknown...Manny?"

Emma walked to the bathroom and brushed her teeth. When she was done, she stepped outside the room to call Manny.

Ring Ring Ring

"Em?"

"Hey Manny. You called?"

"Uh, yeah. Where are you?"

"I'm going to visit Sean."

"Why?"

"I miss him. Duh."

"Who are you with?"

Emma sighed, "No one."

"Liar. I saw you yesterday. With Jay."

Emma rolled her eyes, "And?"

"Why were you with him, Emma? Are you trying to get another disease?"

Emma laughed, "Why are you with Craig again, Manny? Hmm?"

"Don't even go there Emma."

"Well, then stay out of my business. If I want to hang out with Jay, I will."

"Whatever, Em. See you when you get back."

Emma didn't even say bye. She just hung up and went back in the room, where she found Jay sitting at the table scratching his head and drinking some coffee. Emma laughed at the sight of him, "Morning sunshine."

Jay yawned, "It's way too damn early, Em."

Emma laughed again, "Not really. Besides, I need to go shopping."

Jay clapped his hands mockingly, "OH! Can we get manicures?"

Emma smiled, "Only if you're a good little girl!"

Jay stood up and grabbed Emma's wrist. He pulled her back to the bed and wrapped his arms around her, laying her down with him.

"Jay, what are you doing?"

"Holding you captive before you drag me around a mall."

Emma bit her lip, she was in heaven with his arms around her. She whispered, "This is nice."

Jay let go, and sat up, "Emma, we need to talk."

Emma say up with him, "Yeah, we do."

Jay looked her in the eyes and put a hand on her cheek, "Look, Em, I like you. You're amazing. It's just..."

"Don't say you're not good enough. Please don't say it." A tear slid down Emma's cheek and Jay kissed it.

"I'm not."

Emma sighed and pulled Jay towards her, kissing him hard on the lips. She pushed him down on the bed and climbed on top of him. Jay turned his head and then looked back up at her, "Em, what are you doing?"

Emma took a deep breathe, "Just go with it."

And that's what Jay did. He pulled her back to him, kissing her harder. Emma pulled away quickly pulling off the shirt she was wearing revealing her breasts. Jay pulled her back down and began kissing her neck. Emma put her hand in his hair and pulled. Jay rolled so that he was now on top of her. He pulled off his shirt, revealing his abs and chiseled chest. Emma gasped at the sight. He was so sexy.

They were chest to chest and couldn't keep their hands or mouths off of each other. Emma was starting to pull down Jay's boxers when her cell phone rang.

Jay rolled off of her, "Shit."

Emma sighed and got up, "It could be my mom. I have to get it."

Emma followed the sound of her cell phone, and found it under the bed, she picked it up, "Unknown name, again."

"Again?"

"Yeah. I had 3 missed calls earlier. Two unknown and one Manny."

"Want me to answer?"

Emma handed him the phone, "Sure."

Jay took the phone and hit the green button, "This is Emma's pants. She's currently not in them, if you like I could leave her a message."

Emma laughed. Jay hit the speaker phone button.

A girl sighed, sounding annoyed, "Heard it a million times Hogart."

Jay's jaw dropped, "Alex?"

"Yeah. I need to talk to Emma. So, take me off speaker and give her the phone."

Jay handed the phone to Emma.

"Hello?"

"Hey, Nature Freak."

"Ok. Don't call my phone, and then call me that."

Alex sighed, "Sorry. Why are you at a hotel with him?"

"We're visiting someone today, and it was easier to just stay at a hotel."

"Just be careful. Ok?"

"Ok."

"I'll text you my cell number, just in case."

"Alright. Bye."

"Bye."

Emma hung up and looked at Jay, "I'm suppose to be careful."

Jay shrugged, "Oh."

"Yep."

Jay pulled her back down to the bed and kissed her, "You are amazing."

Emma smiled and bit her lip, "You are, too. But we need to get going."

Outside of Sean's

Emma and Jay sat in the car outside of Sean's house. They were sitting there for almost 20 minutes. They had drove all the way to his house, and now they weren't sure if it was a good idea.

"What if the reason he hasn't called us is because he hates us now."

"Maybe he hasn't called because we haven't called, Em."

Emma sighed, "Good point."

Jay looked at the lunch box looking house and then to Emma, "Before we go in, I need to know..."

Emma looked in his eyes, "Know what?"

"Are we, in a relationship sense, going anywhere?"

Emma laughed softly, "OK, are you the chick here?"

Jay rolled his eyes, "I just need to know."

"I think we are. I want us to. Do you?"

Jay nodded, "More than anything." Jay leaned in to kiss her, but there was a tap on his window. Jay turned around in his seat to see who it was.

It was Sean.

Emma opened her door and got out. Jay did the same. The two of them stood in front of Sean, who looked dumbstruck.

Sean ran his fingers through is hair, "OK, I most be seeing things. 'Cause it looks like you guys were about to have a moment."

Emma and Jay laughed.

Emma walked up to Sean and gave him a hug. Jay shifted his weight to his other leg and let out a jealous grunt. They pulled away and Jay and Sean did a 'manly hug'.

"So, what brings you guys here?"

Emma smiled, "We missed you."

Jay nodded, "It's just not the same back home without you man."

Sean laughed, "Let's go somewhere. Catch up. Like old times, just not. Because I've only hung out with the two of you at the same time once."

They all got in the car and headed for an unknown destination.

We laughed, we cried
And all the while we felt so alive
It was you and me
You grabbed my hand and you made me see
What it could feel like
And what it might be like
You wrote my name in the sand
In this endless summer
We will be together
And I dont want this feeling to ever end
Looking back in november
Feel the sun and remember
That when our time has finally come to pass
Some things last
Some things always last
Save goodbye
Keep it frozen in december
I need the high
To get me through the ever after
Cause now that it feels like
Its far from what it was like
When we wrote our names in the sand
In this endless summer
We will be together
And I dont want this feeling to ever end
Looking back in november
Feel the sun and rememberThat when our time has finally come to pass
Some things last
Some things always last
It's not what it feels like
Its far from what it was like
When I wrote your name in the sand
In this endless summer
We will be together
And I dont want this feeling to ever end
Looking back in november
Feel the sun and remember
That when our time has finally come to pass
Some things last
Some things always lastSome things last
Some things always last
We laughed, we cried
And all the while we felt so alive
It was you and me
