Reputations: Chapter 8: Burning Desires ((Pt.1))

"How Long" by Hinder

Why'd you go and break what's already broken
I try to take a breath but I'm already choking
How long till this goes away
I try to remember to forget you
But I break down every time I do
It's left me less than zero
Beat down and bruised
I can't see him with you
Why'd you go and break what's already broken
I try to take a breath but I'm already choking
Cause everywhere I look I can see how you hold him
How long till this goes away

I can't seem to get my heart over you
Cause you creep into everything I do
And now I'm dying to know
How he touches you
I can't see him with you
Why'd you go and break what's already broken
I try to take a breath but I'm already choking
Cause everywhere I look I can see how you hold him
How long till this goes away
How long till this goes away
She said she wants to be friends
I took a big step back
She said
She said
She said she's sorry
With one finger
I said fuck that

I can tell you're lying when your lips move
Cause of one lie it's not me it's you
It's left me less than zero
Beat down and bruised
I can't see him with you
Why'd you go and break what's already broken
I try to take a breath but I'm already choking
Cause everywhere I look I can see how you hold him
How long till this goes away
Why'd you go and break what's already broken
I try to take a breath but I'm already choking
Cause everywhere I look I can see how you hold him
How long till this goes away
How long till this goes away

She said she wants to be friends
I took a big step back
She said
She said
She said she's sorry
With one finger
With one finger
I said fuck that

The Mall

Jack and Carmen are sitting at a mall in the food court drinking their smoothies. Carmen couldn't stand the awkward silence and couldn't figure out why Jack just couldn't spit it out and get whatever it was off his mind. It was aggravating.

"God damn it Jack just talk to me or I'm leaving!" She screamed. The few people close enough stopped eating and stared at her, "What are you looking at?" She retorted to their stares.

"Carmen, calm down. Sorry I'm just trying to figure some things out," Jack said.

"Well here why don't I help you? You stay here and figure out whatever it is
you need to figure out and I'm gonna shop. Find me when you're ready," Carmen said, starting to walk away.

"Excuse me!"

Carmen turned around and walked up to Jack and grabbed his shirt collar, "You know you're starting to sound more and more like Josh every fuckin' day," She threw him back slightly, grabbed her smoothie and walked away.

"Yeah, well at least I wasn't the one to get pregnant by my friend's brother at 15!" He shouted, now standing up.

"Fuck you, Jack Mercer!" She said, flipping him off without even turning around.

Couple Hours Later

Jack was standing in Hot Topic, starring at random stuff just for something to do when Carmen walked in.

"Jack."

"What?"

"We gotta talk."

Jack sighed and grabbed her hand.

The 2 of them started towards Carmen's house, in silence, before she spoke up. "I really am sorry about the whole Justin thing, Jack…"

"I know…"

"I know you know but I don't like not feeling like you're sure it's an apologue not just a "yeah whatever I slept with him" kind of thing like it used to be."

"I don't know if I can accept it, yet, but I know it's an apologue…" Jack said, softly.

"I guess I don't really deserve you talking to me at all, so that's a pretty good deal."

School

Carmen was sleeping in homeroom in the back corner; her head rested on her arms on her desk, her backpack thrown sloppily next to her feet.

Justin was in the front in the next row over, so Jack took to the other side of the room.

Jack noticed Carmen's MP3 was on and that was why she didn't wake up when the bell to go to first period rang. Justin left without bothering to touch her. Jack rolled his eyes and walked out of the room.

Carmen got bored with everything and everyone around 3rd period and left. She went, once again, to the Skatepark because only a few people were there.

Unfortunately for her, Josh was there. He skipped too.

"Hey, Carmen," He said, skating over to her.

"What do you want?" She sighed.

"Why aren't you and Jack talkin'?"

"You know why,"

"Yeah, but I like hearing you say you screwed up, big time," he smirked.

"Fuck off, Josh," She retorted.

"Oh, come on, you know you fucked up pretty bad, why don't you just say it?"

Carmen didn't answer; she just walked away from him.

"Don't walk away from me!" Josh laughed.

Carm wasn't in the mood to deal with him, so he got a firm blow to the face the second he got close. "I warned you."

"What the hell was that for!?"

"I told you to leave me alone! I'm not taking your bullshit anymore! I don't give a flying fuck what you think so leave me the fuck alone!" She screamed.

"Damn it, Carmen, I was joking around," Josh sighed, getting up and walking off.

"Well I wasn't," She mumbled to herself.

Turns out, Carmen wasn't in the mood to skate after all, so she started walking; not to anywhere specific, but wandering around.

Surprisingly, she ended up outside the Mercer house; and she also noticed Bobby's car was still in the driveway.

"It's been almost 4days and he still hasn't left yet? Damn it," She said to herself, walking towards the back.

Carmen knocked twice, but no one came to the door, but it was open so she let herself in.

"Evie?" She called, walking deeper into the house. "Bobby?"

When she entered the living room, the TV was on, but no one was there. So she went upstairs. As she entered Bobby's room and stood silently in the doorway, she noticed he was looking at a picture, but he put it away in his dresser drawer to fast for her to see what it was.

"What were you looking at?"

"Huh…? Oh, nothin'. Old picture."

"Of…what?"

Bobby just shook his head. "Nothin' important."

"Oh, come on, Bobby, you know you wanna tell me…" She grinned, crawling over him to the other side of the bed to lay down, her head rested against his chest.

"No, I really don't. And you wouldn't like it if I did," he replied, truthfully.

"Okay, now I've gotta know!" She exclaimed, climbing over him and reaching into his dresser drawer, but he grabbed her hips and pulled her back. A little too late.

"You kept this?" She breathed, holding up the picture.

Bobby was starring at the carpet, unable to make any form of acknowledgement that he heard her.

(I don't wanna know)
(I don't wanna know)
(I don't wanna know)
I'll go ahead and pour myself a drink
I really couldn't care less what you think
Well I don't have to listen now
Live this day down
If I can't feel a thing
You might as well save your goodbyes
We can give this train wreck one last ride
I'm gonna have to listen now
Live this day down
If I don't make things right
I'll tell you one last time

"I told you to burn it!" She stated, angrily.

miniFLASHBACK

Carmen and Bobby were both drunk as hell. Carmen was dressed like a slut, showing off pretty much all of herself to a camera.

The 2 of them went back to the Mercer house and landed a spot on Bobby's bedroom floor, wearing absolutely nothing left of her slut outfit.

The next morning, Carmen felt like shit and the only thing she could remember from the night before was the pictures.

"You've got to get rid of this. Just burn it. I don't want any evidence of last night, you'll get in a ton of fuckin' trouble," She told him before she snuck out the back door to go home. With a killer hangover.

END miniFLASHBACK

"I couldn't do it," Bobby said, quietly.

"What the hell do you mean "you couldn't do it"? Of course you could do it! You're just too goddamn perv-ish and lonely to have the balls to! Why the fuck did you keep it!?" She screamed.

"Goddamn it, Carm, I don't know!" He snapped.

I don't wanna know it's over
So save your goodbye kiss
I don't wanna know it's over
Cause ignorance is bliss
I can hardly see
What's in front of me
Cause the vodka's running on empty
I can't stay sober
If it's over
(I don't wanna know)
(I don't wanna know)
(I don't wanna know)

Carmen ripped up the picture into really tiny pieces and threw it at him, even though it didn't really go far, she was pissed.

"I hate you and you're ignorance," She said, angrily.

"Yeah, well I hate you and my brother," Bobby spat back, walking out of the room and slamming the door.

She was still pissed, but Bobby just said he hated her AND HIS BROTHER…which means he hates them together…which also means he still loves her.

So save your goodbye kiss
(I don't wanna know)
(I don't wanna know)
(I don't wanna know)

I woke up with a heartbeat in my head
I reached for the bottle by the bed
I saw your side was not slept in
Cold sheets again
Remind me of what you said
We need to take a break for a while
It's been so long since I smiled
I don't wanna listen now
Live this day down
With you so drunk and high
So I'll say goodbye

Jack

Jack had looked in every usual place Carmen would be, but no luck. That was until he arrived at his house and found her lying and crying in Bobby's bed; shredded pieces of picture all over the floor.

"Carmen," He sighed, "why are you here? And what the hell is all over the floor?"

"If you have to know, some really dirty pictures of me because you're brother refuses to throw anything out even though I told him to burn it."

"Excuse me…?"

"Last year, before the whole baby ordeal, we were both pretty drunk and…I was showin' a little more than usual…"

"How much is a little…?"

"Pretty much everything…" She sniffled, wiping off her cheeks with her fingertips.

I don't wanna know it's over
So save your goodbye kiss
I don't want to know it's over
Cause ignorance is bliss
I can hardly see
What's in front of me
Cause the vodka's running on empty
I can't stay sober
If it's over

I don't wanna know it's over
So save your goodbye kiss
I don't wanna know it's over
Cause ignorance is bliss
Now I know I can't stay sober
Cause you left me here like this
I don't wanna know

"…That's…well, um, that's quite a bit, Carm…" Jack stuttered out.

"I'm sorry I didn't tell you anything that happened between me and Bobby…it's just like…the darker side of me that I hate. And I really don't like sharing it with my boyfriends of the future…or ex-boyfriends or--"

Jack cut her off, in a kiss. He pulled back, but before he could actually say anything, she pulled him back into a more passionate kiss.

(I don't wanna know)
(I don't wanna know)
(I don't wanna know)
So save your goodbye kiss
(I don't wanna know)
(I don't wanna know)
(I don't wanna know)
Cause ignorance is bliss
I can hardly see
What's in front of me
Cause the vodka's running on empty
I can't stay sober
If it's over
If it's over
I don't wanna know
If it's over
If it's over
I don't wanna know

Carmen pulled Jack on top of her and kissed him until they were both physically gasping for air.

Jack was reaching for her belt buckle, but she immediately grabbed his hand and stopped kissing him. "Jack."

"Why not?"

"We're in your brother's bed. You could atleast have the common decency to have sex in your own bed," She laughed, in a soft whisper.

"Aww, come on…" Jack pouted, putting more of his weight on her, especially on her hips.

"In your room or screw it all," She smirked, rolling out from under him and starting to walk out of the room.

Jack jumped up, wrapped his arms tightly around her waist and carried her down the hall.

"Holy shit!" She giggled, loudly. "Jack, put me down!"

"Are you crazy!? I'm not settin' you anywhere except my bed!" He laughed, walking into his room and dropping her on her back on his bed.

He crawled on top of her and straddled her to the bed after kicking the door closed behind them.

"Bobby's bed is comfier," She pouted.

"Yeah, that's only 'cause he uses it so much," Jack laughed, pulling his shirt off and throwing it across the room.

"Hello, sexy man," Carmen smirked, referring to his muscle, and pulling him down over top of her.

I'm under attack again my dear, I'm in the way
Got no resolutions, no clever anecdotes to say
And still if I yell at the top of my lungs will it be the same?
I'd fly you a flag, I'd bury this pen into my veins

Jack started kissing her neck and she couldn't help but giggle. His hands quickly went towards the back of her shirt and immediately after taking that off, got her bra off as well.

Carmen started nibbling at his bottom lip, Jack moaning softly against the soft skin on her lips.

I wanna feel through you tonight
But I won't make you
I won't make you

Once he got her belt buckle off, he reached down for the button and eventually did manage to get it undone, and then the zipper, and, finally, after a minute, her jeans were down to her ankles.

And you had an apology in your mailbox since last July
It's funny when you find the words to say you find no reply

"Wait, Jack…" Carmen interrupted, "Did you see Bobby downstairs when you came in?"

"No, I think he's gone for the night."

"Okay, then continue."

I wanna feel through you tonight
But I won't make you
I won't make you

Jack buried his face against her neck, inhaling her perfume and tasting her skin.

Carmen apparently had enough experience in bed to get Jack's pants off with her feet, except for the button and zipper. His boxers were the easy part.

His hands moved on her body, cupping the perfect globe of her breast in one hand. His mouth left her neck and moved to lick the rosy nipple, feeling it grow taut under his tongue.

Her hands were busy also, quickly finding something of his to cup. He moaned as her hands found his sex and he kicked the covers off, and then opened his legs wide so that she could touch him easily.

She stroked and teased until he was at her mercy, whimpering helplessly, his hips moving to the rhythm of her hands.

Jack ran his hands up to her hair and pulled her into a deep kiss, then brought them back down to her hips, pressing her stomach against his naked, muscular body.

Then he moved so that he was kneeling between her legs, positioning them so that they were opened. Jack laid down, his hands gently on her thighs, spreading them even further apart. His mouth pressed against her mound, kissing it, slipping his tongue deep inside. Carmen gave a little gasp as his tongue found a sensitive bit of flesh, and she felt her entire body, from head to toe, tingle with the pleasure he was creating.

Carmen propped herself up on her elbows, her head dropping back at the feeling of his tongue inside of her. She moaned out his name, loudly, several times before his hands left her legs and went to her mound, opening her labia wide, revealing her completely. His tongue licked everywhere, deep into the channels on the side, then back to the fleshy nub. Over and over his tongue found her, and Carmen responded, her hips moving under his attention, pushing upward against his mouth, also grabbing the back of his head, holding him against her, never wanting him to stop.

Carm suddenly pushed her sex hard against his mouth, a cry escaping as she climaxed and let go of the back of his head, propping back on her forearms. Jack continued to probe with his tongue but also dipped two fingers into her passage, soaking them with her fluids, stroking her throbbing walls. He kept tonguing her, and combined with his fingers deep inside, she soon came again. Expertly, he brought her to her peak for yet a third time, and when she was very close to another climax, he moved quickly to a kneeling position and shoved himself deep inside of her.

He arched his back upwards to get his lower body into her deeper than thought possible, he hit a spot she didn't know she had, making her yell out in delirious screams of his name.

Scream my name just one more time

But I won't make you
I won't make you

And it's been hours now

Carmen's head flung back, sideways, trying to release the pressure he built inside of her, but he bent down to her exposed neck, nuzzling it until she brought her hands up from his lower back and engaged him in a kiss. As he kissed her, he lowered his groin so that his penis teased her thighs, just a soft brush of his flesh. After a couple of times, she opened her legs and captured him. He gave a little cry of surprise and then settled down partially on top of her body, his length buried between her warm thighs.

"Carmen!" Jack whispered/hissed, smiling softly. Carmen laughed a little then opened her thighs and let him move free. Instead of moving free, Jack moved upward and Carm could feel him moving back and forth across her mound. She moaned, loudly.

Carmen gently pulled away from him and bent down, capturing his penis to torment it even more. She licked at its tiny mouth, bringing drops of crystal liquid out of it. At the same time, Carm reached down and took hold of his balls, massaging them. Jack began to whimper, his whole body a mass of writhing movement, sweat pouring out of every pore until his whole body glistened.

She swiftly straddled him, impaling herself on his swollen member. He flipped her onto her back, quickly so he was on top and shoved himself in hard and with only a few thrusts poured streams of white semen into her already sopping passage.

To be here like this
And just to lay you down
And just to taste your lips
And just to keep me up
God I'm tired of sleeping
And just to lay inside you
And just to know this feeling

She felt it rush into her, like a wave upon the sand, it came slowly, but it sent electricity up her spine, and she was tingling all over, goosebumps covering her body. She screamed out of pain and pleasure, and then they came down from the orgasm they had just hit together. He slowly pulled out, as not to harm her, and collapsed next to her.

I wanna feel through you tonight
But I won't make you
I won't make you

Scream my name just one more time

But I won't make you
I won't make you

Both hearts racing and completely out of breath, they wrapped themselves in the comforter, despite the fact that they were sweating. The blanket only strayed up to Jack's waist, but rose all the way up on Carm's body, along with Jack himself.

"I love you, Carmen," Jack whispered into her ear, wrapping his arms around her body and kissing the back of her right shoulder where he discovered a tattoo of a heart with a banner across it with the word, "STRENGTH".

"I love you, too, Jack," She whispered, placing a kiss on the hand he had resting above her chest, casually.

There was a silence and then Carmen spoke up again, "Oh and Jackie…"

"Hmm?" He hummed, his eyes now closed.

"Best make-up sex ever."

"No, best SEX ever." He laughed, softly.

She glanced over her shoulder at his face and smiled, before drifting off into a sound sleep, feeling the protection of Jack's arms around her body.

A/N: That was definitely rated M. Haha 12 pages, next chapter we'll sort out the shit between Justin and Carm // Bobby and Carm. WOOT! THANKS SO MUCH TO Amanda ((xBrokenDreamerx)), my friend: Bev, Bethany, and anyone else who offered even a line!

Disclaimer: Again, the very first song was "How Long" by Hinder, the second one was "Bliss (I Don't Wanna Know)" also by Hinder. And the last song ((that was in bold)) was "I Won't Make You" by Something Corporate! The bands own themselves and their songs, unfortunately!

REViEW PLEASE!!!
