My Past and My Future Collide
Chapter 14: Ridiculous and Even Closer
Shane rolled over in bed looking at the clock reading 10am in big red block numbers. He yawns and rolls back over. He smiles at the sight of the petite figure curled up under his deep blue comforter, her breathing evened out as she is still sound asleep.
Her figure was defined do to being under the blanket, which was wrapped around her body tightly. She was in a tank top and short shorts. Her hair was carefully tied in a messy bun and her face was facing his. He carefully ran a finger through Jenny's long blonde hair. She was gorgeous sleeping, in his bed. He carefully twisted it around his finger trying to not wake her.
He smiled and reached for his cell phone now lying on his back. He slowly removed the hair from his one finger and slide his phone open. There was one missed video message from anonymous.
"What now?" He asked himself and opened it and the video started playing music blaring
It was Mitchie singing Picture To Burn. He was going to turn it off but something made him watch it intently. It could've been the words she was saying and he knew very well it was about him.
"This is ridiculous" He almost shouts seeing the small body move in the blankets
He shuts his phone laying it on the table as he turns and her emerald eyes flutter open "Hey" She mumbles yawning
"Sorry to wake you" He said sweetly
"It's okay what's wrong" She said sitting up against his headboard
"They sent me a video of her" he said and she nodded
"Just delete it Shane" She said honestly
"Yeah" He takes his phone and deleted it "There" he smiles
"By the way, your bed is really comfortable" She said laughing
"Definitely is, always have great sleeps" he said smiling
"We might have to make this a habit" She said sticking out her tongue
"Wishful thinking" He said gently hitting her shoulder
"You know it" She winked pushing his back and they both laughed
"Well last night was fun" he stated
"Definitely, sleeping in your bed was a bonus, definitely comfortable" he stated
"Totally" he laughed
WHOA! They both slept in his bed. Well let's Rewind to their Thursday Night shall we?
~~~ THURSDAY ~~~
It was Thursday afternoon around 3:30. Shane was still in his pajamas. I pair of plaid pants, and a white wife beater showing off his muscles. He was watching Transformers. He was consumed in his thoughts. He was excited for no reason really. One feeling he did have was a growing flame for Jenny Garth. The way her blonde hair fell to her shoulders. How her eyes sparkled in the sun, the smell that intoxicated him and the feel of her hug. He was slowly brought out of his thoughts when his sidekick went off. He opened it and smiled.
Hey you Mr. Thang
Hey Jen, how's it going?
Good, getting ready for a boring weekend. My parents are away. YAY all alone, not.
Well come over and stay here silly
Really? I don't want to intrude
Jenny would be intruding, never. However I don't think I mind ;)
He doesn't know why he sent that but he smiled and laughed after he did
It's okay with your parents
Yeah, they love you Jen, it's so obvious
Okay so I can stay the night?
Yeah, why are you being so silly? Stay the weekend okay? Guess you are packing again
Yeah. Ugh I just unpacked for hours last weekend
Well have fun Jen
What time should I come over with all my stuff?
How about your stuff and your pretty little self show up in 30 minutes
Okay, bye S, XOX Jenny
Bye Jenny XO Shane
He doesn't completely understand why but lately they have been hugging a lot. When she gets there or they meet. When they leave, it's strange but he was not going to complain she was so tiny in his arms and so warm. Also they always put X's and O's at the end of their text conversations now. He smiled remembering she would be there in 30 minutes and bolted up stairs to change after turning the morning off.
He went upstairs and jumped into the shower. He rinsed off his body and washed his hair in a quick but normal fashion. He jumps out wrapping a towel around his hips still wet with water. He decided to get dressed into a pair of black jeans with a pink shirt. Only Real Men wear pink splattered along the front. It was so true. He shook out his hair as he blow dried it and it turned all curly. He smiled. She always ran her fingers through his hair when it was curly. He loved her fingers exploring his curls. He snapped out of his thought when the doorbell rang and bolted down to the door.
He opened the door smiling revealing Jenny smiling with a duffle bag slung over her shoulder and her purse in her hands. She looks at him, then his shirt and bursts out laughing. He smiles chuckling and letting her in. She drops her bag then laughs again.
"So you're a man?" she asks
"Well yeah, what do you think I am a woman" he asks laughing
"No, a boy" She says winking
"Dream on" he says laughing and hugs her as she gives him a greeting hug to
"Thanks for letting me come over" She said smiling as they go and sit on the couch
"Hi Jenny" his mom says walking in
"Hi" She replied smiling
"It's okay that Jenny stays until her parents get back on Sunday right?" Shane asks and Jenny looks at him like you didn't ask
"Chill" Shane said to her
"Of Course sweetie, you're always welcome" His mom replies and Shane grins at Jenny
"Told you" He said laughing as Jenny playfully hit him
"OW" He says rubbing his chest
"Okay, well have fun you two I'm going grocery shopping" She said and left
"So Jenny so you want to go swimming?" He asks casually
"Sure why not" She says smiling "Where can I change?"
"Upstairs" He says grabbing her duffle bag and they go upstairs and into his room for now
"You can use my room I'll use my bathroom. The guest room isn't well made up yet so we'll move you there later tonight" He said grabbing a swim suit and going into the bathroom. For some reason the image of her changing in his room was a turn on. SHANE CONTROL YOUR TEENAGE HORMONES GOD DAMN IT! He shook his head then changed into his swim shorts.
"You can come out" Haley said as she finished tying her hair up into a pony tail and turned around as Shane smiled opening the door and coming out being hit by a heat wave. Damn she was definitely fine. She was in a red fitting bikini that hugged her chest perfectly. It was resting on her hips defining them to a tee.
"Ready?" he asks trying not to stare
"Yup I am" she says smiling putting on her channel glasses on her hair
He slips on his Gucci Aviators and they walk downstairs and into his gorgeous backyard with the pool. His backyard was not big, but not small either. It had a pull along the one side of the back yard vertically. It was more of a longer then a wider backyard. In the other corner there was a beautiful colorful garden his mother plants every summer. Before that there is a barbeque pit. It was a stainless barbeque with the grill surrounded by brick and such. They were in an average neighborhood; they were more than wealthy though but didn't brag about it. They walk off of the porch were there was an umbrella and patio furniture.
They walked over to the poolside. Shane grabbed his iPod he had grabbed and placed it on the deck on the table near the pool. He put on shuffle as music started playing. Haley took of her glasses and smiled looking at the blue pool water. He snuck up behind her lifting her up and jumping into the pool with her and she shrieks as they collide under the water together. They soon both return to the surface Shane laughing hysterically.
"Not funny" She says splashing him roughly with water and he smiles
"Well yeah it was, but you know" he said smiling
"I wanted to dive in" She says pouting
"Go ahead" He said still kicking his legs resting his arms behind his head almost floating
She walks up to the diving board and he just stares trying not to make it to obvious. She smiles at him jumping up then diving in her body curved in a way to show her off. Damn she is hot and Shane was not complaining. She swam up and popped up in front of him.
He smiled and clapped "Good job" He said noticing her chest in her bikini then adverts his eyes and starts swimming around.
"Thanks" She smiles doing laps "I haven't swam in so long it's so much fun" She smiled "Well In a pool" She giggles and side by side they start doing laps together.
She wouldn't say anything but she definitely noticed his body. He had his defined six-pack which any guy would die to have. It was toned to a perfect Tee and she loved it. She would give anything to run her fingers along the defined lines. His Hawaiian flowered swim shorts resting just below his hip bones as they showed. She definitely loved being Shane Gray's friend. Maybe one day more than that. She knew he was comfortable with her, but he wasn't leading her on just being comfortable, cuddling could be friendly right?
After an hour or so they got out and laid their towels on the pool deck. They then both lied on their towels letting the sun shine over them. The water slowly drying and dripping off their bodies, their eyed covered by their sunglasses.
It was now around 9 and they were playing video games up in his room. They had finished drying off when his mom called them in for dinner. They both hate then they showered and Jenny finished showering and her room was ready. She moved her stuff to her room and got changed into a pair of shorts and a tank top to sleep in. She didn't wear a bra, but she didn't really care she was in a friend's house. However she wished she could call him more than that.
He was in a pair of plaid pajama pants and a wife beater as usual. She cursed him for being so muscular and defined. They finished playing video games as they were getting pretty tired so Shane suggested they watch a movie. They could've gone downstairs to watch a movie, but his parents were watching a movie so he decided they could watch it in his room.
He leaned against the headboard as did she under the blankets as they didn't want to get cold. They put on She's The Man and started watching the movie. They were sitting pretty close, closer then friends, definitely. He casually wrapped his one arm around her shoulder pulling her a little close. She smiled leaning against his shoulder and with his other hand he took hers as their fingers intertwined. Her heart rate raced unnaturally and she had to remind herself friends could cuddle, about a hundred or more times. She so badly wanted to look up and kiss him but well that was crossing the line.
Sooner or later they were lying down still curled up together sleeping. Their even breaths were in tune to each others as they slept peacefully. They were both in dreams about each other. Shane was having a hard time imagining anyone else in his arms at this moment. His arm draped over the perfect girl and her tiny petite waist and letting him do so. His hand intertwined with hers. He was sleeping with a smile.
Jenny was sleeping well hey body was almost exploding with fireworks. She didn't know how she was sleeping with all this sexual tension but she managed to sleep with the biggest smile on her face. Maybe Shane was moving on with her, maybe this dream that was half way true could become her dream relationship. Who knows but that night was one of the best!
~~~ BACK TO FRIDAY MORNING ~~~
They both got up and Jenny walked to the guest room stretching and then deciding on what to wear for the day. Shane got up and changed into a pair of dark blue skinny jeans and a red t-shirt with reserved plastered along it in black letters. He then walked out of his room as Haley walked out of hers. She had brushed her hair as it was slightly knotted. She was wearing a pair on jean shorts that went half way to her knees and a white tank top with her red bra straps clearly showing on her shoulders. God she looked hot when she was being modest.
They were headed down the stairs, Jenny in front of Shane as she stumbled and almost fell backwards. She was ready to hit the floor but instead Shane on instinct wrapped his arms around where he could reach her at her chest. His hand landed on her breasts cupping them and he doesn't know but his teenage notions got the best of him.
He gently squeezed them wondering why he hadn't done it before. They were so firm and perky and so, they were breast and honestly guys love them. His hormones were definitely getting the best of them. He was in a daze and kept squeezing them a little until he looked down seeing Jenny's eyes wide and he let go accidentally dropping her with a thud.
"OW" she said rubbing her head
"OH MY GOD, Jenny I am so sorry" he said picking her up and hugging her
"What was that" She asked
"Sorry. I'm a man, teenager, hormones, breasts do that math" he said blushing
She giggled "You better keep a shirt on then and you didn't have to drop me" She said flirtatiously winking and walking rest of the way down the stared still surprised and kind of shocked her groped her but true he was of the male sex crazed teenage species. She definitely had breasts and well maybe that's another thing working for her although was anything going to happen?
It was not about 10:00 on Friday night and again they were lying on Shane's was this about to be a habit? He was leaning against the head board with his legs stretched out. Haley was also leaning against the head board right next to him their heads touching but her legs curbed draped over his. Her long slim legs were definitely gorgeous. He casually ran one hand down the slim limb of her body.
They were just chilling out listening to music. Rain was making a pitter-patter pattern sound bouncing on and off of his window, and window sill. He had his lights on and Jenny was looking at some lyrics she randomly wrote when she was bored laughing as she remembered them.
Shane was off in his own little world listening to the rain and just sitting there thinking about the one and only Jenny sitting right there. They were close before they started on their own lives. Now they were older and even closer to the point of almost not being friends but crossing the safety lien to shark invested waters of a relationship. He didn't know if that's what he wanted but the safety line was right there all he had to do was cross it.
He looked over at her as she looked over at the same time each of them catching the others gaze. He looked deep into those amazing sparkling immaculate Emerald eyes that would capture the heart and soul of most guys. They were breathtaking.
She looked into his brown eyes which always had a slight spark in them that made them unique. The first day she saw him a week or so ago and he was hurt it wasn't there. Now it was back and she couldn't help but smiling staring into him with passion and they could even feel the lust and electricity from each other.
He had one hand on one of her legs and he slowly started leaning his head towards hers. She knew a kiss was coming so she leant in a little too. They both wanted this so bad. Their foreheads were just touching their eyes still open staring at one another's. The kiss was right there it was.
He was just about to let their lips meet as his hand cupped her cheek. They heard the thunder and then saw everything go pitch black as the power just blacked out. Shane sighed pulling away, why now. He couldn't even see the dazzling eyes. It was so close they were about to kiss. WHY! He wanted to scream WHY!
Jenny groaned falling backwards letting her head hit the pillow frustrated. She was about to kiss Shane for crying out loud. SHANE FREAKIGN GRAY! She groaned again in frustration and they were both cursing at the power.
She grabbed a flash light and turned it on. They sorted stuff out then curled up in his bed once again. They were really close. Nothing could happen he needed to see her eyes when they first kissed if they did. She was afraid of thunder storms and even if she wanted to his arms were wrapped around her to tight and she was so close to him she wouldn't and physically couldn't leave the room.
They both slowly fell asleep the rain still bouncing on his window. They almost kissed and they both regretted that it didn't happen a second earlier but maybe there was reason. Was it a browned hair beauty of his part or just bad timing? They didn't know and they know they wanted it they both did. Would it ever happen or would it be a miss. They will make it happen they were both determined for it. What was to come was anyone's guess but they could also control it.
A/N: I am so terribly sorry it took me FOREVER to get this out. I was having trouble figuring out exactly where I wanted this to go. I hope the beginning people were a little surprised. I mean the same bed. Bet no-one saw that coming, good! Anyways I hope it was worth the wait and that it was good. They almost kissed and people are probably cursing at me for that but hey I'm the author I have reasons for everything I write and make happen. My Creative ability and freedom came into use.
