December 29 Genovia
SCORE! I get to come home early, Grandmere just told me! TWO WHOLE DAYS! It's a Christmas Miracle (though Christmas has passed…) Apparently there is no need for me here tomorrow or the next day… YAY
I did everything I was supposed too, the ball, the opening, the occasional wave, and constant smile… So I think I did okay this time, no one got hurt… that's always a plus.
However, I just got some horrible news…
Yesterday night, Lilly called me. She told me what supposedly happened at Vix.
You see, Jesse wanted to borrow Jackson's car, and Jackson told him that he had to work… Well, a couple hours later Jackson called Jesse and said that he could borrow his car… Jesse said that he thought Jackson was working. Jackson said that he had gotten fired and now Jesse could borrow his car. (Lilly can totally suck at explaining things.) Jesse asked him what happened and this is what he said:
He was in the club, taking away cups and just doing his job, when he saw Michael with Paige… dancing, really, really, close. So Jackson went up to him and was all, "What the hell man, you're with Mia."
Michael then replied with, "Who I'm with is none of your business. Just because you have the hotts for Mia, doesn't mean you have to be her babysitter."
"You're an ass hole… You don't deserve Mia."
Then Michael splashed his beer on Jackson handed him his cup and said, "Here take my cup."
And well, then Jackson punched him… really hard…
Jackson's boss saw the whole thing and fired him…
I want to believe this story, but I just can't see Michael being that much of an ass…
Ugh, I should go see Jackson when I get back to the city.
I leave late tonight, so I'll get to New York about mid afternoon.
December 30 on the Plane
Okay… I've made a decision. I'm going to have sex with Michael. I think it's the only way to make our relationship stronger. Even if he wasn't fooling around with Paige at Vix, I still think this is what we need to do.
I know I've been waiting for the right moment, but maybe I have to make the right moment, I just can't expect things to happen…
I'll just pick up a pack of condoms on my way to his dorm. And I'm already on the pill, because my dermatologist proscribed it for my acne… So then I guess I'm set.
I need to do something about Jackson, maybe I'll stop by his house on my way to Michaels… Though it's way, way, farther then Michaels dorm. I think I need to set things straight.
December 30 On the Subway
Well I'm heading to Michaels, I have the condoms in my back pocket and I guess I'm pretty much ready…
When I got home, my mom hugged me like she hadn't seem me in years… and Mr. G. gave me a nice hug. Rocky ran up to me and held on to my leg. He wouldn't let go so I was forced to walk up the stairs to my room with Rocky attached to my leg.
I finally got some alone time in my room and I realized that it would be my last time in my room as a virgin… weird…
I told my mom that I was spending the night at Lilly's, and she believes me. I even called Lilly and told her she needs to cover for me. I've covered for her more times than I can count…
I stopped off at Jackson's before I went to Michael's. I dropped off his Christmas present, which was my Princess Leia action figure. It's not much, but that action figure means a lot to me… I hope he can see that. I just left it in a little box in front of his house and addressed it to Jackson Taft… I hope that works…
Oh god, I'm almost at Michaels…
December 30- Later on the Subway
Oh god… I'm going to write down what happened before I chicken out again…
Okay, so I got to Michael's and I knocked on his door, but no one answered. His door wasunlocked, so I went in. I heard the shower on so I figured it's either him or his roommate. I walked around his dorm (which is easy since it's pretty small) and didn't see him, so I waited on his bed. Since he's a junior in college, he has a nicer door then the freshman… his dorm has it's own shower and even a small kitchen. Very cool… but cramped…
After about 5 minutes I heard some noises in the shower… a couple uuuhhhs and ahhhhh… I figured his roommate had someone in there with him… I was thinking, note to self, tell Michael to spray some 409 in there before he showers... so I decided maybe I should wait outside and call Michael's cell… Until I heard a 'oooh Michael…' at first I was confused… then I thought to my self 'Holy Shit!'
I stormed into the bathroom pulled back the curtain and found Michael and Paige having SEX! I was in shock… I definitely wasn't ready for that… they pulled apart, then Michael said, "Mia, it's not what it looks like."
I replied, "Oh yeah Michael? Well it looks like your FUCKING PAIGE!"
Then I turned around, turned off the bathroom light, and closed the bathroom door. I ran out of there and got onto the subway… I hope they got hurt trying to get out of the bathroom…
Now, I've been riding the subway for an hour… mostly crying and trying to figure out where to go… I can't go home because Michael will go there and I don't feel like seeing him, ever, ever, ever again… I can't go to Lilly's because I don't want her to hate Michael even more than she already does… Tina is out of town… damn… Well, I do know one more place I can go… It's raining so hard outside though… Well, this is going to be fun.
December 31 Jackson's house
It was tricky getting into his house. I didn't want to wake up his family, so I decided to climb through his window…
His house is two stories, so it wasn't easy. I had to climb up the trellis (a/n trellis- A structure of open latticework, especially one used as a support for vines and other creeping plants. Sorry I had to lookit up…I had no idea what it was called.) on the side of his house, but it was raining so the trellis was really slippery. I almost fell like ten times.
Finally I got to his window. I was trying to open it with one hand and hold on to the trellis with the other. To my surprise, it was unlocked. After a lot of attempts, I finally got the window open enough for me to slide through.
I wasn't as stealth as I would of liked to be… I fell into his room with a huge thud, I knocked a few things over too… It was like 11:00 at night, so I'm sure he thought I was a burglar or something…
Jackson sat straight up in his bed and turned on his lamp. He looked in my direction then said, "Mia, Jesus Christ, what are you doing here?"
Not exactly the welcoming I had intended. I said looking at the floor, "I'm sorry, but I had no where else to go… "
"You're soaking wet."
He got up (with no shirt on, jeez he has a lot of muscles…) and went into his closet for a second, then came back out with a shirt on and some clothes for me.
Jackson said, "Here put these on, I'll go get you something warm so you don't freeze to death."
I put on the clothes he had given me. An old pair of Ninja Turtles boxers and a long sleeved black ARMY shirt.
I looked around his room and was surprised to find the Princess Leia action figure on his desk. I smiled for a brief second, but then I remembered Michael and I was almost in tears again.
Jackson came back in with a towel for me and a Cup Noodles.
I was sitting on his bed eating, while he was sitting next to me.
After a couple minutes he said, "Want to talk about it?"
"Umm, not really…" I didn't want Jackson knowing just then.
He shook his head like he understood.
About 10 minutes later, when I was done with the noodles, Jackson took some blankets out of his closet and made a bed on the floor.
He said, "You can have the bed, and I'll sleep down here."
I said, "Would you sleep with me?" I didn't mean it sexual in anyway, I just didn't want to sleep alone.
"Michael won't mind?"
"No." I looked into his eyes, he looked pretty confused. Then he got up and slid into the other side of the bed.
There was a good two feet between us. After a couple minutes I said staring at the wall, "Jackson, I'm really sorry about what I said over the phone."
He replied to what I said by pulling me really close to him and kissing my cheek. I took his arm and wrapped it around myself. I've never gone to sleep with a guy before… It felt so nice being so close to him. I could smell the Old Spice.
I fell asleep in arms just like that. No hanky panky involved, it was so nice.
I woke up to the smell of cinnamon. I went downstairs cautiously (I didn't want his mom or anyone seeing me in his clothes and get the wrong idea). I found Jackson cooking French toast in the kitchen, and listening to the Beatles.
I asked him, "Where's your family?"
"They left yesterday. They're visiting some relatives in Vegas."
"Why didn't you go?"
"I'm not the biggest fan of my relative back west."
"Oh…"
I wasn't about to ask why.
"Want some French toast?" He said as he flipped a piece of toast.
"I would love some."
He handed me a plate with a couple pieces, then we both sat down and ate.
And now I just got out of the shower and Jackson just hopped in. Then he's taking me to meet his band mates… but first we have to get some stuff from my house.
And that was chap 5… duh I know…
This chapter would have had a lot more profanity in it if it wasn't for Melissa. So those of you who dislike profanity, thank Melissa.
Since I kind of like profanity, I can't thank her for that… but I will thank her for helping me :) thanks melis. Though I posted this before you could read the ending… I'm sorry for that, but you were out so what could I do? Get my mom to read it? I think not.
I'm sorry you're sick Sarah :( I posted this quick so you can have something to read.
REVIEW PLEASE! I love reviews… without them, I think I just mightcry. ;)
Much love,
