DISCLAMER: I DON'T OWN THE SHOW OR THE CHARACTERS JUST THE IDEA

Chapter 4: Strike One

Rocky's P.O.V.:

Today's friday and I can't believe I'm saying this but I'm glad I'll be having a break from school after today. I was in desperate need of a weekend and all I wanted to do was dance on Shake It Up! Chicago with CeCe and relax over the weekend (with CeCe of course). You see for the past three days CeCe has been acting a bit odd but as far as today has gone it's been going pretty good, CeCe and I have been hanging out all morning and well today is sorta like a free day since we've got a week and three days till school ends. Well at least I do, as an over achiever I had permission to take my finals earlier than the rest. So instead of going to class I've been helping CeCe get ready for hers but at the same time keeping me and her as far away from Gunther as possible it's been three days since my encounter with the boy and I've been avoiding him as much as possible. There has been a few close calls but CeCe could already tell; after a few times of it happening, she would grab my hand and pull me into another direction. I could tell she was worried about me but I've been trying to convince her that I would be alright. Well right now CeCe and I are in the library just chatting, we've been done studying for her English test so we might as well just hang out. We were talking about the situation going on with me, Ty and Gunther.

"So has he done anything threatening?" CeCe had asked as she stared down at the table avoiding my eyes. I sigh and grab her hand, my thumb rubbing against the back of it and holding it securely.

"I promise CeCe I'll be fine, stop worrying. As for the question, no he hasn't; I haven't spoken to him since wednesday." She huffed and pulled her hand away and I frowned. "CeCe please what's wrong? You've been acting like this since my talk with Gunther." It hurt me that CeCe had been denying my kind gestures, she'd usually accept it and show off her bright white teeth and giggle.

"Rocky, you're hiding things from me."

"What am I hiding Cece, I've told you everything."

"You won't tell me what Gunther told you!" She yelled in a whispered tone, we were still in the library and I'm pretty sure people are trying to listen into our conversation.

"I told you CeCe I promise I will tell you as soon as things settle down or at least wait for the right time to tell you. Please CeCe I'm begging you, it hurts me enough that I'm keeping this from you." I'm now holding onto both of her hands across the table, our faces are about inches apart and my heart is racing. She looks me straight into my eyes and I stare right back. One of her hands then slips out of my grasp and she lays it over my heart, my breath becomes uneven and I try to process everything that is going on.

"Rocky," she breaths out, "your heart is beating so fast, I swear it may burst any second." She leans closer to me, now I feel her breath on my lips, my heart beats even faster, by breath shortens and I can barely think. I look down at her lips, back up to her eyes and back down to her lips; I can smell the strawberry lip gloss that she had put on after she had closed her note book. None of this was helping the fact that I wanted to kiss her and hell was I ready to just close the gap between her lips. "Make a move Rocky," she licked her lips slowly, "I'm waiting." I swallowed hard and I was pretty much freaking out. Did CeCe like me back? I mean she's flirting with me right now, in fact she's TEASING me right now. She giggled. "I'll see in class alright?" She winked at me, grabbed her things got up and walked out of the library doors while swaying her ass, as I sit alone, shocked, turned on, my mouth gapping while watching her ass move back and forth. Once the door closes I immediately grab my binder, get up and run after her, once I'm out the door I see CeCe smirking at me as she's leaning against the wall across from the door. CeCe's hands are tangled in her red hair, while she bites her bottom lip and her eyes traveling my body up and down slowly getting to see every detail of me I guess.

"What's with you CeCe? You're being more out going that usual, and you've been really touchy." I'm breathing hard like I just ran seven miles. She giggles.

"Oh nothing, just taking a pre-test." She smiles at me and I can't help but smile back.

"Are you flirting with me?" I ask like it's a joke but I truly want to know is she flirting with me.

"Maybe." With that answer she walks away with a smirk across her face, I would love to kiss that smirk of her face.

"So Rocky I see you have an interest with CeCe." Great way to ruin the moment, I turn around and see Gunther and Tinka right behind him.

"What do you want Gunther? You still want to know what makes me tick?" He laughs.

"I already know you're weakness so why bother?" Wait, so he didn't know that I liked CeCe? "You probably thought that what I found out was that you liked CeCe correct?" I nodded slowly. "Well you're wrong, it's something else, now if you excuse me I would like to talk to CeCe." He starts to walk past me but I move right back in front of him.

"You are not going near her." I say in a deadly voice, you could feel the tension in the room between me and Gunther, we were glaring at each other with eyes full of hate. Tinka then came in between us pushing me and Gunther away from each other.

"Stop Gunther, that's enough." He huffed and walked the other direction as the female Hessenhefer sighed. "Rocky I am so sorry for my brother, I don't know what's gotten into him I," I interrupt her by holding her into a secure hug, slowly she registers what's happening and hugs me back.

"Tinka, it's alright don't worry. Thank you." My arms are around her waist and her arms are around my neck so she looks up at me.

"For what?"

"For helping me, I didn't know Gunther would do that. I was hoping that he would let it go but I guess not." She sighed letting me go.

"Rocky I need you to be careful I can't protect you from my bother all the time you know." I nod.

"I know."

"I have to go," She kissed my cheek, staying there for a few seconds and pulled away, "thank you Rocky for everything. I'll see you around." I agree and she walks away.

CeCe's P.O.V.

I watched from behind the wall and saw the scene unfold between Rocky and Gunther. I didn't see the beginning but I heard my name.

"Well you're wrong, it's something else, now if you excuse me I would like to talk to CeCe." Why would Gunther want to talk to me? Then my breath hitched, Rocky blocked Gunther from walking past her. Why is she doing that? Gunther's fist had clenched as Rocky told him that he wasn't going to go near me. It scared me a bit, I had never heard Rocky talk in such a way but as soon as Gunther's fist started to move, Tinka jumped in between them and pushed them apart. I guess Gunther didn't like it and walked away. I was about to walk over to Rocky to see if she was okay but I started the hear them talk so I stayed where I was. Tinka kept apologizing to Rocky about Gunther but she said it was all okay. Rocky thanked Tinka as they were hugging, soon I saw Tinka kiss Rocky on the cheek. When I saw it lasted for a few seconds I felt myself become angry. Wait why? Do I like Rocky? I know I'm bi-curious and I flirt a lot with Rocky but do I actually LIKE Rocky Blue? I don't know I mean, I do think she's pretty, when she talks to me, or I like it when she holds me. Actually I like that the most; when she holds me I'm usually sitting on her lap, my head resting on her shoulder; I can hear the beating of her heart, her strong but gentle hold on my body, the comfortable silence, I loved everything about it. I didn't just like how things were but I also liked the fact that it was Rocky who held me in such a way. When I'm with Rocky it feels right; if it's just some guy it feels horrible, like it was all a big mistake but with Rocky... It's perfect. I looked back at Rocky who was deep in her own thoughts, I was about to walk up to her until I felt a hand on my shoulder. I turned around and found Gunther Hessenhefer smirking down at me.

"Hello CeCe, nice to see you." I was a bit scared, after the scene I just saw I didn't know what Gunther wanted from me.

"H-Hey Gunther," I straightened up and got his hand off of me, "What are you doing here?" I laughed nervously.

"I just wanted to talk to you that's all." He stepped towards me and I moved around him so then I was at least five lockers away from him.

"About what?"

"You, Rocky, Ty... My sister." Now I'm confused, what is going on?

"Really why?" Maybe I can figure this out, if I play it out right.

"Well, Rocky and my sister have gotten really close haven't they?" I nod; the way Tinka kissed Rocky's cheek made that quite obvious to me. "Well what about you and Rocky? Are you two still as close as ever?" I nod to that as well, he frowns. "Well I may have to change that." My eyes widen as his hand grab mine and pin them above my head against the lockers.

"What are you doing? Get off of me! Rocky! Help!"

"Oh keep yelling your precious Rocky won't be here to help you anyway." Before he could do anything even further, he was pushed to the side and fell down. Soon enough I was pulled into a tight hold and I immediately know who it was.

"Rocky?" She looks down at me and smiles slightly.

"Yeah it's me, are you hurt? Did he do anything to you?" I shook my head but whispered.

"Make him go away Rocky." She nodded and pulled me behind her.

"I told you not to go near her Gunther." He got up and laughed.

"Like I would listen to you, now let me show CeCe who's the better man." He popped his collar and I heard Rocky growl at him getting even madder.

"This is your first strike Gunther, two more and you're out." He smirked.

"Really now, and what will you do if I get three strikes?" She walks up to him grabs his collar pulls him up off of his feet (who knew Rocky was that strong?) and pushed him against the locker.

"You don't want to get my angry Gunther, no one has ever seen me angry. If you get three strikes you will see blood and it won't be my blood." She lets go of him, dropping him onto the floor and walks over to me. "Come on, lets go." I nodded and walked as fast as she did to get away from the foreign boy but not fast enough before I heard him yell.

"This isn't the end! CeCe will see who's better and come running to me, she should be with someone she can trust! Someone who can protect her, a man to give her the greatest pleasure!" I winced at his words and his last sentenced scared me; I guess Rocky could tell because she held me even tighter.

"He won't do anything to you I promise." All I could do was not but I kept thinking about Gunther's words: "This isn't the end! CeCe will see who's better and come running to me, she should be with someone she can trust! Someone who can protect her, a man to give her the greatest pleasure." What did he mean by that? What did he mean by someone I could trust. Was Rocky lying to me about something or hiding something? Plus Rocky has been able to protect me, she just saved me right now. As for the greatest pleasure part I wanted to throw up, there was no way in hell I would have sex with Gunther Hessenhefer; I don't even like him. I can tell he's now delusional but what he said didn't help the fact that what he said might be true. I looked at Rocky and prayed to god that it wasn't true.

I'm back from camp and I thought I'd upload a new chapter :D
