Warning" Bad language, and some . questionable flirting.
Pulling my chair away from the table where everyone sat silently I followed Shyla to the back yard. There was something in her body language that told me there was more to this "going back to school" issue than she was letting on. Climbing in the hammock I found her sprawled in, I lay beside her for a while figuring out what I was going to say.
"What's wrong with school Gabby?" I asked trying to keep things light hearted. "Its not school, it's this school in particular." "OK, what's wrong with this school?" I asked humoring her. "Oh its nothing, I'm just being a silly child," she said slowly turning to face me. "You know what?" I asked kissing her gently. "What?" "You're a horrible liar," I said laughing as she punched me in the arm. "It was petty stuff, just some kids I didn't like."
Smiling I stroked her hair soothingly. She would tell me the story when she was ready. It wasn't like I didn't' have my secrets as well.
"Come here baby doll," I said pulling her to lay on my chest.
Though she had gained weight, and put on some muscle, there was still something about her that was so incredibly fragile. WE drifted of to slip that night as the hammock swayed back, and forth gently. My last coherent words being I love you.
Shy
I sat at breakfast the next morning trying not to think of school that would be starting Monday. It was Friday so at least I had the weekend, and the races to look forward to.
"Dom I was thinking," Letty said with a sly look that only meant trouble. "About?" "Well if Shy's gonna start school Monday, she needs some new clothes." "Yea Papi," I said jumping in .
"Well I guess you're making a valid point, here's my credit card," Dom said eyeing as with something kin to fear as he handed over his Visa gold.
"Don't look so scared Dom, not like we're Mia, " I said laughing as she
made a noise that meant she was offended.
"Come on Mia, you know you can shop girl," Letty said laughing as her friend broke out in a grin.
"Vince," she whined making me laugh.
Those two were so perfect together, I didn't' see how they were ever with any one else.
"We'll be back in a few hours," Letty called as we headed out waving at the others.
"Finally we have some alone time, spill it girl."
"Spill what?" I asked confused.
"The goods, you aren't telling me, you and Jesse aren't getting it on yet. "
Seeing my blush she laughed harder.
"OH shit you really aren't!"
"Leticia!" I said embarrassed as I looked away.
"No, it's not that, its just that before you came around , that boy was one of the horniest boys I knew, and now he's done a complete three sixty.
"Jesse horney?"
"Oh yea, he had the girls begging for him."
"Jesse?" I asked again still in disbelief.
"Uh huh, he knows how to work his tongue well apparently, cars aren't the only thing he's good at working on."
"Oh my, " I said fanning myself as a heat fell over my body.
I sneered at her as she smiled at me knowingly, realizing exactly why I was having a hot flash all of a sudden. Sometimes I did wonder about that girl. She was just a little too.. I couldn't quite put my finger on it; but the looks we shared linger a bit too long at times.
Turning away I rolled down the window, and let the cool breeze caress my face. Those were thought best left alone, though I knew every girl had to think about it at some point.
We shopped for four hours that day, a record for us both. Usually we came in , got what it was we were looking for, and got out. It was nice to actually take our time for once, browse through the sales rack, and have a chance to linger in stores with out the boys rushing us. I smiled at Letty bashfully as I purchased a few new shirts for Jesse, and a pair of khaki cargo he had been eyeing.
"What can I say I love my mad scientist?" I said shrugging as I took the bag from the sales clerk, and we headed back to the car.
"You are so his little wife," she said chuckling as I stuck my tongue out at her.
Shaking her head she started up the car, and surprised me when she drove by our street.
"Thought we'd treat our selves to a few drinks."
"But Letty, I'm not old enough."
"Where we're going they'll never notice she said smiling.
"I like the way you think," I said suddenly ready to party.
We parked in a parking garage near by before heading to a small club that looked like a hole in the wall, but was packed on the inside.
"Holy shit!" I yelled over the noise smiling as Letty laughed.
"Sometimes its nice to just get away, and have a girls night out you know?"
"Yes," I said nodding in agreement as we made our way on to the crowded floor.
Positioning ourselves in the middle of the floor with tequila sun rises in our hands I let the rhythm of the music, and the alcohol take me over. Shaking my hips to the beat I shimmed my way around the area we had designates as ours. Staying close to one another to feel safe from others. I scowled as two guys approached us, laughing as Letty moved closer running her hands up and down my arms sensuously as she gave them a look that said my property. They still didn't' get the picture taking her actions as an invention until she pressed her lithe body against mine her hips pressing in to mine. The thing that shocked me the most was the thrill it sent spiraling in to my body, and the way I instinctively responded.
"I knew you were an undercover freak," she said smiling as I looked away blushing.
"Nothing wrong with a little experimentation here, and there," she said her hungry eyes making me wonder just what she was talking about.
Once the guys were gone we headed back to he bar for a few Coronas. "WE should call Mia," I said as we sat around the bar. "Good ideal!" She said pulling out her silver flip phone.
My smile widened as she turned to me to say , she's ditching V as we speak.
Jesse's POV
Pacing back, and forth in my room I was taken back by the loneliness I felt. I had not realized before today that I hadn't been apart from her since we left the hospital. Mia had left an hour earlier to join the other two, and I couldn't help wondering what they were doing. Letty was infamous for her adventures when she drank too much. Wandering down the stairs I smirked as I saw that Dom, and Vince were in the same position I was. Lounging on the couch they starred at the kung fu movie bored out of their minds, and obviously missing the girls.
"Come to join the pity party?" Leon asked snickering as I took a seat next to him. "Ugh," I replied grunting as my only response. "Why don't' we just go there?" He asked a few minutes later, tired of the long faces.
We all agreed quickly, and I couldn't help but feel a little excited as we pulled in to a club .Gabby, and I had never really been on a date, and now seemed as good a time as any.
