I'm feeling a bad writer, but, as you may know, I'm fighting with a mayor writer's block - I started a few new stories to get over and and I think it is helping. I can't believe it has been two months since I published a new chapter to this story :O
Thanks to Cena-Centric333, my time is now, Cena's baby doll and ChainGangHottieWithKillerLegs for the reviews - I feel so bad for making you wait for so long to another chapter. Hopefully the new one will be up sooner, a lot sooner.
Read and Review
What do you do when your life is upside down? You do mistakes that you will regret later when your head is clear again.
Being cheated by his girlfriend was being harder to overcome than Jeff thought - in fact Jeff never thought in any moment of his life he would have to overcome a cheating girlfriend. Maybe it could be easier if his school students didn't know about it - he could only blame himself for it.
If the younger Hardy had controlled his rage when Trish confessed she slept with Randy, no one would have known. He shouldn't have gone after Randy - if Randy hadn't told about his date inside the locker rooms, he wouldn't have known where the basketball team caption was.
Taking a deep breath, he entered in the gloomy alley. Deep inside Jeff knew he was doing something wrong. However he only wanted something to forget Trish's treason - only if it was for a moment.
A man was expecting the younger Hardy. No words were shared between the two during their transaction: Jeff gave him a large amount of green dollars and the man gave him in return a small package containing white powder.
- If you need more, I'll be here - the man advised the teenager when he turned his back to him. The words were ignored. Jeff would only do it once to forget his problems, to forget how hurting he was.
What Jeff didn't know was that all addictions have a beginning and everyone always says it will only be one time.
As her two arms were wrapped, Stacy was pushed out of her path. Before she had time to realize who was who, Candice and Torrie's voice echoed. Her two best friends started the interrogation she left unanswered the day before. Stacy should have known it would be impossible to run from them again without a leak of information.
- I have to go home to help Kyle with his homework. If I don't show up in time he is going to tell my parents about my no-existent boyfriend - Stacy replied, but was ignored. The other two kept pushing her. In no time they were making their away to Candice's home.
- Call Kyle and tell him you have a school work to make - Torrie proposed. Stacy was not going anywhere until their chitchat. Stacy was not going to keep from them one more time about her fabulous weekend. - And you have to confess us about your no-existent boyfriend before Kyle's big mouth tells to your parents.
- So, start spiting it out - Candice concluded. This time, Stacy wouldn't get away without reveal them her little secret - because they knew a little secret existed.
-X-X-
"The leggy blonde gave John back the helmet he lent her. Afterwards, Stacy fixed her clothes - she should have remembered a skirt was not appropriate to ride a bike.
- May I know where are we going? - Stacy questioned him. Since the invitation, John didn't reveal her any details about where they were going. Mystery was always a nice touch, but Stacy's curiosity was too aroused. She wanted to know where they were.
- Too impatient? - John smiled at her. One thing Stacy really liked on John was when he smiled at her - when she thought about his dimples, the blonde used to have one of her girly moments.
- Well, as I hadn't made any questions since we left, I do believe I have the right to feel curious. - She crossed her arms over her chest and waited for a concrete answer. However all she won was another unclear reply.
- Let's say that I'm sure you are going to enjoy it. You just have to give me ten minutes. - If he confessed her where they were going, John was afraid she regretted and walked away. He would keep it to himself until the right moment arrived, until she couldn't back-down. - It is going to be much better than when I told you to show up in the night club. - He offered Stacy, who was still suspicious, his arm. - Shall we go now?
xx-xx-xx
- First time running from the authority? - John queried offering Stacy a strawberry smoothie. He placed it on the tabletop, at her front. They were in a small coffee located close to his high school.
- No, I use to do it every day single day of my life. However, it always happens under the sunlight and not in an old movie theatre. - Stacy tasted her drink before going on with her answer. - Did you never hear that you shouldn't take a girl out to go watch a movie in a place where you have to pay a ticket, but you didn't do it? We did something illegal!
- It is not illegal. I simple took advantage of a clear space where we could spend time and have fun without wasting money. - Stacy rolled her eyes. He just expressed they did something illegal by other words. - I saw you were enjoying it.
- I was enjoying the movie until we had to leave or I would end up in deep troubles - the female teenager replied without being able to sound angry as she should. Maybe she was overreacting. Nevertheless he had taken her to an old movie theatre by the back door and they ended up being caught. - How did you find out about that place? It doesn't seem a place where you use to hang out with your friends. I cannot even imagine you hang out there alone to watch old movies with discount.
- You don't get in troubles, right? - John questioned avoiding the question. Stacy didn't understand he was changing topic and went along with him. - You had never done anything wrong, right?
- I'm sorry if I don't cross the line so many times as you would wish me to do. I like my freedom. If I want to keep it, I have to be good behaved.
- You never cross the line - he pronounced one more time. His voice's tone could make everyone think that be good behave was a sacrilege.
- I cross the line. Tonight I crossed the line to come to meet you. My parents don't imagine I went out with you. They think I'm with Torrie and Candice. - Since when did Stacy feel proud of lying to her parents? Since John made it sound as she was too good girl for him. - When you saw me coming from that party and took me home, I was supposed to be sleeping in my friend's house. I do cross the line a lot of times.
- Fine, you won! - John surrendered and lifted his hands in his defence. - Next time, you choose where we go and there won't be any unpleasant surprises.
- Who told there is going to be a next time? Even if I choose the place, you will find a way to make me cross the line.
- You should trust me.
- I trusted you and guess where it took me!
He stood in silence for a minute before saying another word. John approached of her and his lips coiled into a smirk. - Can you trust me one more time? - he asked almost in a whisper.
- It depends - Stacy stammered feeling the closeness between the two. Or her mind was imagining something she wanted so badly to happen or was he going to kiss her? Her doubt would soon to be answer. - Why do you want me to trust you now?
- Because I'm going to do something and I'm afraid of a very slightly chance of you not liking it after our disastrous date and to get mad at me. - His fingers lifted up her chin. His lips were close of hers and instantly Stacy knew her mind was not imagining his intentions. He was definitely going to kiss her.
If there was a line Stacy was officially ready to cross over and over again was the one John was offering her now."
-X-X-
When her date with John was finally told, Candice and Torrie still had too many questions. It was being hard to control those two - even if they weren't excited as they were before. Something in her story had broken all those romantic theories they had imagined.
At least, they weren't in her house and neither James nor her mother nor her brother would hear her date's name. Or would hear that she went out on a date when she should be walking by the mall with her two closest friends.
- He took you to the cinema and you were expelled? - Candice finally queried. Stacy nodded with her and with a smile spread all over her face. - And you are all happy about it? What's wrong with you? The Stacy we all know doesn't agree with that stuff. She likes peaceful encounters with flowers. You aren't the kind of girl who gets excited with danger situations.
Stacy offered them an odd look. She thought her date had been wonderful. Why didn't they see how perfect it was as she? Didn't they listen to her when she told John kissed her? For love of God: John had kissed her on the lips. A long and tender kiss on her lips.
- If your parents ever know about it, they will murder you - Torrie exclaimed. Two of the most apologists of Stacy crossing the line once a while and not be so very well behave, were now condemning her.
- I did not steal anything and I did not hit someone or committed a murder. I did nothing wrong. - She bit her bottom lip. She had done something wrong. Nevertheless, she hadn't done anything horrid and wouldn't be sent to jail because of her little infraction - and if it counts, in her defence, she didn't know where John was getting her into.
- Your parents would kill you anyway - Torrie proclaimed once again.
- I knew I should not tell you - Stacy grumbled and finally lost her silly smile. Torrie and Candice were ruining all the magic of a first date. Mad at her friends, Stacy rose out from her place and stared at the outside by the window. It didn't mind what Torrie and Candice thought. For her, her date had been perfect and it didn't matter if John almost put in troubles. It had been perfect. Period! - Who is the little kid helping your mother?
- That's Damon - Candice answered without getting closer of the window. It was not the first time Damon showed up to go help her mother with the groceries. - She has a crush on me.
- So, the wrong brother fell for you? - the taller blonde asked and the raven haired girl nodded with her head.
Exchanging looks, Torrie and Stacy burst in laugh. Candice's tactics to get Phil made his younger brother to gain a crush on her. At least, Candice learnt a lesson and would never try again to be friend with the younger brother.
Another school day was over and everyone wished to go home. Nevertheless, with his arms folded, John was staring at Chris in the school hall. The blonde teenager was trying to have a conversation with Katie Lea, who was taking out from her locker-room her books. He couldn't hear the precise words, but the gestures were the indication he needed to understand it was not going very well.
- What is he doing? - Matt's voice called John's attention. Without taking his eyes off Chris, the basketball team caption offered an answer.
- An ass of himself - he simply said with a grin on his face. Chris was full of surprises. First Katie scared him and next he wanted to have something more than a friendship with her. If they ever got together, John would have a great time making fun of Chris.
- Did you try to stop him? - John looked at Matt askance. Why would he even try to stop Chris from embarrassing himself? It was too hilarious to watch it happening. Shaking his head, Matt got ready to get off. - I have to go, Amy is waiting for me. See you tomorrow.
With those words, John was left alone watching Chris not acting has himself. The teenager's thoughts rambled when realized how he was the only from his friends who haven't seen the girl he was into or shared a word with her in that same day.
After their not so fabulous date, John hadn't been with her - Stacy couldn't show up in her house and he couldn't show up in hers until the blonde confessed to her father their new-born relationship. They had shared messages and one cell phone conversation, but no contact at all.
The malicious smirk disappeared from his lips and formed a tender smile. Maybe it was time to make Stacy a surprise - another dangerous surprise.
I'm sorry for the spelling and grammar mistakes. English isn't my first language.
