New And Improved Claire
Chapter 6
GOD. I thought as i stripped of my clothes and jumped in the shower, boiling i thought, perfect. 'why did i have to go and say that, now they know why i really came to morganville' i sighed and soaked up the water it wasnt untill i started sniffing that i realised i was crying.
Oh for god's sake Claire, i scolded myself stop being a wimp and stop crying. Your better than that i thought, Oh well atleast it's in the shower were no body can see me than in the kitchen for the whole world to see. I sighed again 'Jesus i thought i have been doing that a lot latley' and got on with my shower.
45 minutes later
Ahhhh now that is what i call relaxing i said outloud as i dived on my bed for the 2nd time that morning. Hmmmmmm i thought what shall i do today, well i have 2 options ;
1) go down stairs and have a full on heart to heart with shane about our little kiss, and then Eve about my little breakdown, Orrrrrr
2) I could go out and stay out untill Michael has re-appeared and take my mind of things with talking to him about his problems.
Just as i am thinking this i get a VERY unexpected text ;
Joey
Hey babe it's me, i just woundered if you wanted to talk for a little while and yeah okai you know me so well make out, meet me in common grounds at 11.00. I'll be waiting xxxx
Me
Nawww why thank you but i have other things planned and why the hell would i want to kiss you. xx
Joey
Babe don't be like that all i want to do is talk, 5 minutes seriously, i'll buy the hot chocolate. :D xxxx
Me
Fine but only because i am a sucker for hot chocolate and you know it, and your right we do need to talk. xx
"Well" I said out loud "I think, i am going to check out the cenery" i said with a flirtatous grin. What better way to get my mind off things in here with fit boys out there, well okai with Joey and yeah he did dump me but he is one hell of a better sight to look at then my bedroom celling :D, So i get my short shorts on as it is a warm day 'and thats the story i am sticking to' with some gladiator shoes and just a plain white t-shirt which sticks to me like a second skin. 'Oh and did i fail to mention you can see my bright pink bra through it'.
But as i run down stairs grab an apple from the kitchen and dive for the door i hear ,
"Claire wait, please i need to talk to you about what happened last night" Shane said sounding desperate.
"Sorry Shane i have totally forgotten what happened last night" i said with a truthful smile 'well i am a good lier' i thought"But i am sure you can jog my memory later on, same time same place yeah" I said with a wink "But i really have to get going Joey will be mad if i am late, see ya" i said with a wave as i saw anger in his eyes. So okai i have no idea who this Joey person is, i don't even know a Joey but i wanted to make him suffer for what he said to me last night, and if i get a kick out of it then hell i am only human after all i thought with an evil grin.
Shanes POV
WAIT. WHAT
"EVE" I shouted
"What the hell do you want" Came the reply from an annoyed Eve
"WHO THE HELL IS JOEY"
"What are you on about Shane, come on spit it out already i need to go in the shower".
I just growled in anger, hell i had a right to be angry me and Claire only kissed last night and yeah maybe she said she forgot but you could tell she was lieing and with the wink and all, HELLO that screams i totally know what happend. But then she drops the bomb and is all Joey this and Joey that, well fine she didn't say that but she might as well. I don't even know why i am acting like this because i have only known her for a day, yet something happened to me when we kissed, i have never felt that way with a girl before like so intuned and now that it's gone i just crave it and -
"OI, I AM TALKING TO YOU" and then came the smack, seriously what is it with girls and smacking boys.
So i rub my arms and say "Hey will you stop that, and Claire just said she was going to be late for 'Joey'" I mimicked in a girlies voice "And that he will be annoyed if she is"
Eve just laughs and says "Boyss"
Now that pee's me off even more "What do you mean 'Boys' I am serious, who is he"
"God Shane you can be so niave some times, there isn't a boy and there certanly isn't a 'Joey' believe me, Claire is just annoyed at you and she wants to make you jelous," she suddenly smiles and says very excitedly ".GOD. i know what to do, lets follow her and see what she does"
At first i was like no, no way at all i am not and will not stalk a girl for any reasons, But just as Eve predicts i cave in from the poking and proding and just well... Eve.
"FINE" i yell after minutes of agonizing pain 'little exageration there Shane', But i just grin and say "Lets go".
Claire's POV
Ugggghhh i thought i hate these type of talks, but as i walked into common grounds all that evapourated expecially becuase of the sight in front of me 'WOW' i thought Joey has seriously been working out. He saw me and beamed the same smile that used to have me swooning, but know it just took my breath away.
"Hey babe," he said as he came over and hugged me, he went in for a full frontal kiss but i moved my face so he got my cheek instead. "You wasn't kidding about the no kissing part huh" he kinda looked sad at this so i had to defend myself.
"Hey, it's not that but you expect me to kiss you after what you did and then you just show up, wait how'd you know were i was anyway" he looked guilty but i carried on "we will talk about that later, and then you expect everything to be hunky dory well i am sorry Jo it's not gonna happen" i saw him flinch when i said Jo because i have never ever called him that even when we were not together.
"Wow i guess it's really over this time then huh, considering you won't even say my name properly" he looked upset again
"Well what would you expect" i said quietly "I gave you everything Jo my heart, my love and my... Virginity and you left me straight after. It broke me Jo, But i've changed i am not the same girl anymore, i don't let people run all over me i stand up for my self and i am proud of it." And to be honest he looked proud of it, i decided i needed a change of subject because all in all i did still love Joey and when we put it together we could be really good mates.
"Sooo" i said with a cocky girn on my face "Loving the new look, you been working out it kinda makes you look even sexier and you now have that dangerous vibe coming off you, i likee" He just leans back, streches his legs out in front of him and foldes his arms behind his neck.
"Too right baby after you left, i needed to get my head sorted out because i couldn't believe what i had done to you, to us, and i realised that i had lost the only good and decent thing in my life" He looked really sincer i thought, ughh i don't know i might give it another try but thats it "so i lost my self in football. and the gym. and basically everything else to get me fitter"
"Well i said it suits you" But i never really smilled i just looked at the table lost in thought
"Hey,hey,hey we will have not of that CB" he whispered as he placed his hand under my chin and brought my face up to meet his eyes.
"Right here's the deal" i said "you get one more go mister but if you mess around and lose me again it's over fammouse understand" But as i was saying this i couldn't keep my eyes of his mouth, and before i knew it my mouth was crushed to his.
