Chapter 3 is here. I pretty much gave up on this fic, but I'm coming back. Might as well finish it right? Thanks again for the lovely review :)
Sebastian and Jade continued to meet up occasionally. Casual flirting was always exchanged, but neither of them had gone far enough to make it serious.
They grew closer, finding themselves confiding in each other. They didn't realize just how much they had in common, and just how much only they could understand about each other.
Sitting on her bed with a book in her hand, her thoughts were on the gorgeous, blue-eyed boy she had been talking to for the past few weeks.
She didn't expect to have him in her thoughts this often. He was different, unlike most guys. He had the bad boy act going, but not entirely. It was odd.
She remembered their conversation in the auditorium after she was done with practice.
"You were amazing." He grinned at her, in his Dalton uniform.
She couldn't help smiling back. Going up to him, she wrapped her arms around his neck as his strong arms enveloped her waist. She loved his hugs. Pulling away too quickly, she stopped herself from thinking about how sexy it was when he licked his lips like he just did, and how his eyes shone when he smiled. Stop. Friends. That's all you are. She thought grudgingly.
"Thanks. When am I going to see you perform?" She asked, taking a seat and tried not to check him out as he sat down.
"How's saturday? We're having practice at Dalton."
"Sounds great. I wonder if you'll live up to all the hype." She teased with a grin.
"You're going to have to tell me."
"Do you think Thad or Nick will mind?" She asked, biting her lip. She was aware of how strict they were with their performances.
"Who cares? I'm head Warbler remember?" He smirked, leaning back.
Shaking her head she couldn't stop herself from smiling at his cocky attitude she knew only too well.
"Listen, there's something I need to tell you." He said seriously.
Furrowing her brows, she waited for him to continue.
"I know you haven't been completely oblivious to the situation between Blaine, Kurt and me." Finally. The time she caught him checking out Blaine crossed her mind. And then the attitude from Kurt every time she mentioned Sebastian.
"There was a deal I made, with the Warblers. Well, not all of them, but a pretty large majority." He continued, staring at the ground.
"We really needed to win these regionals. And McKinnley has home court advantage this year. So since I was new in town, we decided that I would get Blaine to fall for me and get him to come back to the Warblers. If not, at least convince him not to perform, or break his heart hard enough that he wouldn't be able to." He finished hanging his head.
"I'm not gay. Or bi." He interrupted, just as she was about to say something. She was pretty sure her expression was one of confusion and mild surprise.
"So that's why Kurt doesn't like you. Because you were trying to... seduce Blaine?" She asked pursing her lips.
Looking mortified, he nodded.
"Okay. And you're not gay?" She double checked, feeling relieved and slightly glad.
"No." He replied, looking slightly confused.
"Alright." She said, nodding. The sexual tension and chemistry between them was obvious but she was still not sure of her feelings. But why did this make her so happy then?
"I wanted to tell you before somebody else said something and you misunderstood the situation. But most of all, I wanted to tell you because I don't want to lie to you anymore. Kurt and Blaine don't know the truth and I don't care if they never find out. But I care if you do." He said, his velvet voice echoing through the empty room.
"Thank you for telling me. I appreciate the honesty." She said, smiling.
"I'm sorry that I stooped to that level. It just didn't seem to be of any harm. That was before I got to know Blaine and you. He's a decent guy and one of your best friends."
"He really is and I'd appreciate if you don't go through with your plan." She said, slightly annoyed when she considered how hurt Blaine would be.
"I'm not going to." He assured her.
"Alright, well, if that's all. Are we going for soccer with the guys or not?" She asked, indifferent.
"Yeah, sure." He breathed. Surprised at how calm she was.
They got up and she stopped him. "Look Sebastian, I'm no saint. I've done some pretty messed up things before, so I'm not going to judge anybody. You may have had your reasons, just don't friends with the friends okay?"
He looked like those were the exact words he wanted to hear. "Thank you, for understanding."
Smiling, she picked up her bag and made her way out with him following.
Kurt had been furious when she told him.
"What? Pretended to be gay? That's messed up!" He exclaimed.
"I know." She replied calmly.
"And you're still speaking to this guy?" He asked
"Yes."
"Why?" Kurt shrieked.
"Okay calm down. I know how this sounds, but he had his reasons."
"Winning? That's a good enough excuse for you?"
Saying nothing, she closed her eyes and took in a few deep breaths.
"The fact that you're still on speaking terms with him is unbelievable."
"What are you going to do Kurt? Are you going to stop talking to me?" She asked, tired of this.
"No. But I'm done with that snarky meerkat friend of yours."
"Fair enough." She shrugged. Sebastian and Kurt had never got along anyway.
"You seem so, so casual about this. Isn't this freaky for you?"
"Shit happens."
"This isn't everyday shit."
"It is for the upper east side." She replied, thinking of all the scandals back in New York. Fake pregnancies, heiresses going missing right before their 18th birthdays, businessmen shot in their own homes. This was pretty tame compared to that. A show choir competition and faking your sexuality? Nope. Didn't really compare to the drama back home.
"You can tell me all about your crazy past at the sleepover tonight, with Berry." He replied, seeming to have given up on Sebastian finally.
"I'll be there." She smiled.
Her phone rang, breaking her out of her thoughts, and coincidentally it was that blue eyed chipmunk. She picked up, wondering why he was calling so late.
Hey she answered
Hey, you busy? he asked, she could hear more people in the background. The sound of his voice made her stomach do little flips.
Not really, what's up? she asked curious
Can you meet me at Dalton? The back entrance. Intriguing.
Uh, yeah okay. She was wondering why she was agreeing to this. Sebastian Smythe wasn't exactly safe with the things he did.
And bring a bathing suit. See you in 10. A click.
What on earth was he up to? A bathing suit? Were they going swimming? Spontaneous, that's what he was, she liked that. And she was definitely interested.
Her hair wasn't too bad, she was having a good hair day.
She pulled out her bathing suit from inside her wardrobe. It was barely a one piece with a few lines of fabric between the top and bottom halves. It was very flattering on her. She threw a casual dress on over it.
Putting on some flats, she checked her hair, letting it loose. She grabbed her phone and car keys and left.
It was dark and the school was closed. What is he up to? After circling around the back, she found him typing into his phone near a parking lot.
He was wearing shorts and a casual t-shirt. He looked up as her headlights approached and smiled, motioning to one of the parking spaces beside him.
She parked, got out and walked over to him.
"What's going on?"
"You swim right?" He asked, answering her question with his own.
"Yeah.. Sebastian, what is - " she started but he grabbed her hand and pulled her toward the school's back entrance.
"You'll see." He replied, as they reached a door marked 'pool'.
She couldn't believe it, they were breaking into his school. This was so much better than McKinnley.
They entered and she saw many more students lounging and talking around the pool with drinks in their hands. Generally having a huge pool party.
"Ah," She smiled, comprehension dawning.
"You said you swim right?" he grinned, taking two drinks from a table near them.
Taking a sip she tasted champagne.
He set his drink on the table and took off his shirt.
She bit her lip. He was very well built. He had a six pack and very well defined biceps. Her eyes moved to where his shorts began, catching herself, she moved them back to his smug face.
After a sip, she set her drink on the table.
Slowly, she slipped the dress off her shoulders and it slid to her feet. His eyes widened as they raked over her curvy figure in her suit.
Kicking off her flats, she dived into the water, feeling the moderate temperature water and chlorine sting her eyes slightly.
She surfaced, taking in a drag of air and brushing the hair off her face.
His mouth was slightly ajar.
"Well, aren't you going to come in?" she challenged, raising an eyebrow.
He smirked and dived in near her, submerging her with a wave.
When he came up, his face was dripping; drops of water slid down his flushed face and plump lips. It was... really hot.
She moved closer to him and he looked at her with teasing smirk. They drew closer and he was leaning in when a wave of water hit him in the face.
He gasped with shut eyes as the chlorine mildly stung his eyes. He heard her tinkling laugh and watched her swim away from him.
Oh no, she wasn't going to get away that easily.
He went after her, but damn she was fast. She glided through the water easily, cutting through it like a fish.
He was fast too, though. He cut through the water, avoiding the people in the pool narrowly, who splashed at him as he passed.
Following her to an empty side, he cornered her against the edge. She was backed up against the corner with her arms on the edge of them, waiting.
"You're a good swimmer." she remarked as he got closer.
"So are you." he smirked, as he closed the distance between them.
He got closer to her and when they were facing each other, he put his palms up against the walls on either side of her. "Nothing's ever easy with you is it?" he asked, leaning in.
"Not usually." she replied and ducked below the surface, twisting away from the corner. She back stroked away from him with a smug look on her face.
Nope. Nothing was ever simple with this girl.
He swam after her and caught her from the back, putting his hands around her waist and pulling her to him.
She felt his body press against her from the back. She felt his abbs and the bulge in his shorts. They hadn't been this close, physically, before.
She felt his lips brush against her ear, and his hot breath on her neck.
"Finally." he breathed and she felt her heart race.
She turned around but he didn't let her go, his arms around her waist. She saw droplets of water dripping down his eyelashes and jaw, it looked entrancing in the light. His eyes were sparkling like the droplets of water that were on his beautiful face.
He was transfixed by her beauty. Her gorgeous almond shaped, brown shining eyes. Her high cheekbones, somehow heightened with the water. Her full, pink lips. He wondered if they were as soft as they looked.
He couldn't stand being so close to her. Something was fluttering in his stomach and he could feel his heart beating rapidly.
He leaned in and pressed his lips to her. They were softer than they looked.
He kissed her softly but with passion. She put her arms around his neck and he pulled her closer- their wet, almost bare bodies touching.
As their lips moulded into each other, she felt his bare chest press against hers. Skin on skin, it felt amazing.
Their bodies pressed against each other, he felt the curves of her body on him. She felt the bulges of his chest and moved her hand lower - tracing the depressions in his chest.
He shuddered slightly at her touch. She moved her other hand into his hair as the kiss deepened. His heart was out of control, beating hard against his chest. She could feel her stomach doing flips wildly.
His tongue moved into her mouth and hers snaked into his. They explored each other's mouths, her tongue twisting and convoluting against his.
She bit down on his lower lip and pulled, grazing over it. She heard a soft moan coming from him which pleased her.
Chuckling she kissed him again, this time it was faster, he kissed her almost hungrily. She responded with the same enthusiasm and he pushed her up against the pool's wall. Her heart pounded against her chest.
She felt the bulge in his shorts against her pelvic bone and moaned into the kiss. She felt his lips curve into a smirk.
She pulled his lips back to hers and entangled her fingers in his hair. As their bodies pushed against each other again, she tightened her grip on his hair and he bit her lip.
He started to trail kisses from her jaw, down her neck. She felt her breath stutter. He could feel her breathing heavily and he reached her collarbone and bit down. She groaned as he nibbled and sucked, working on a hickey.
He left it to bruise and kissed up her neck again. He looked up, her eyes were closed and he head was tilted up. She looked like she was enjoying it. He smirked and pulled back and she opened her eyes.
He had a satisfied expression on his face.
He opened his mouth to say something but forgot what as she began to plant kisses along his neck. It felt so good, her soft lips against his neck. She stopped in the middle of the crook of his neck and bit down gently.
He grunted as she sucked hard on the skin and pulled at it with her teeth, licking it before she did the same up his neck. She kissed his ear. And then went back to his lips.
After a few moments she pulled away, both of them trying to catch their breaths.
She dropped her hands to the walls of the pool and he pushed his against them too.
His head dropped as he breathed fast, a grin forming on his lips.
When he looked up she was looking at him with an amused expression.
"Wow." Was all he said.
