A/N: ANOTHER UPDATE! So this is the one a lot of you have been waiting for. Jordan and Tammy!!
Disclaimer: I own a bunch of shit but not Degrassi or its characters. =)
After Alex and I got her settled in at my grandparent's house we made our way over to my dorm. I'm driving my grandpa's car and Alex is just staring out of the window in awe. She looks like a little kid.
"It's so amazing," Alex says.
"What is?" I ask her.
"There's no snow on the ground. There's no gray clouds in the sky. It's completely sunny here."
I laugh a little bit. "Yeah, well they call Florida the sunshine state for a reason ya know."
We're getting close to the campus because I can see the giant FSU sign and the Nole sign. As I pull into campus Alex is even more in awe.
"Wow," she says.
I chuckle. "Yeah, there's a reason why I picked this school."
I pull up in front of Smith Hall. I get out of the car and Alex follows me. We pop the trunk of the car open and grab as much of my stuff as we can.
"This looks more like an apartment building than a dorm building," she says.
We head into the building and climb the stairs to the second floor. I take my key out of my pocket and open up the door.
Alex is scanning my room now. It's like she's looking at it with a critical eye, judging it.
"It's kind of small," Alex says.
I roll my eyes. "It's a dorm room," I inform her. "It's not supposed to be huge."
Alex walks over to my wall and looks at all the posters I have hanging up. By posters I mean poster frames full of pictures of me with friends and with family. Alex walks over to my desk and picks up a picture frame. I already know what picture it is without even having to look at it. It's a picture of her, Paige, Beth, and me when we went to La Ronde last Spring Break.
We're all staring up at the ride. We just entered the park and Alex said she wanted to get on something great. A ride that would really hype us up for the rest of the day. No one knew she was talking about Tornade.
Paige crosses her arms. "There is no way in hell I'm getting on this thing Lexi," she says seriously.
Paige is just shaking her head. "Nu-uh," she says. "There is no way I'm getting on that hon."
Alex places an arm around Paige's waist. "Paigey there's nothing to be afraid of," she says trying to calm Paige's nerves.
"Except death," Beth mutters.
"It's really not that bad," I tell them. I turn to them. "Growing up as a Floridian I was surrounded by amusement parks and you better believe that I went to every single one of them. I've been on worse rides than this one and I'm still alive."
Beth places a hand on my shoulder. "I think that maybe secretly you're supernatural," she says seriously.
I take her hand and kiss it. "Of course," I say agreeing with her. "That's how you're under my spell." I smirk.
Beth giggles and Paige and Alex both roll their eyes. We walk up to the sign in front of the sign. The sign is completely in French and I can't read a single word of it.
"I don't read French," I tell the group.
"It pretty much says this ride will kill us," Paige says matter-of-factly.
"Paigey, I know I'm not the best at French but I'm pretty sure that it does not say that," Alex says.
"I agree with Paige," Beth says to me.
Alex leans into Paige and whispers something in her ear. Paige's face expression changes as Alex is whispering. Alex pulls Paige closer to her by her hips and keeps whispering.
"Fine," Paige says. "I'll get on the ride."
I look at Beth and pout and give her puppy dog eyes. "Pwease?" I ask her.
Beth shakes her head. "No Jordan, no way," she says sternly.
I get down on the ground on my knees. Thank God I decided to wear jeans today. I clasp my hands together and hold them up to Beth.
"Please Bethany will you get on this crazy yet exciting ride with us?" I give her sad pleading eyes. She's looking straight at them and I can see her walls crumbling down.
Beth sighs. "Fine, you win."
I jump up and throw my arms in a triumphant manner. "Alright let's get on the ride."
"We had to talk to them for a good 10 minutes before they finally said yes," Alex says, remembering the moment.
"I had to get on my knees and beg," I point out.
Alex places the picture back on my desk. "I surprised you have the photo out here," she says.
I shrug my shoulders. "That was a good and fun day," I tell her. "When I look at that photo I remember the good days and try to forget about the bad."
Alex nods her head, agreeing with me. "Well I guess we should get the rest of the stuff from the car," she says.
I nod and follow her out of the room. I look back at the picture. A sad smile is on my face. Sometimes memories are all we have.
Next Night:
Alex and I are at my dorm room right now getting ready to go to a frat party. My roommate Amy is also here, well actually she's in the bathroom applying make-up.
"Why are we going to this again?" Alex asks me.
"Ya know in high school you loved to party, so stop complaining," I tell her. " This is the first frat party of the smester. There will be dancing, hot girls, and free alcohol."
"Isn't the drinking age in America 21?"
"Psh the drinking age is when you get into college," Amy says while walking into the room.
I look Amy up and down. She's wearing a short skirt that barely covers her ass, a white halter top with a red bra underneath. I then look down at her feet. What the fuck is she wearing?
I point to her feet. "What the fuck are those?"
Amy looks down and then looks back at me and smiles. "They're called Uggs," she says happily.
"Why are you wearing boots with a skirt and halter top?"
"Because they're comfortable and I look cute."
"You look ridiculous. I can see your bra and I'm pretty sure your ass is hanging out of your skirt."
Amy narrows her eyes at me and points at my outfit. "Well what the fuck are you wearing?"
I look down at my outfit. I'm wearing simple blue jeans, a red button up, and some converse shoes. I think I look good. "I'm wearing clothes."
"Well you could at least try to look hot," Amy says. "At least Alex is wearing a wife beater and tight skinny jeans, showing off some of her body."
Alex is grinning now. "Wipe that stupid smile off your face," I tell her.
"Alex how do you think I look?" Amy asks Alex.
Alex is looking between Amy and me. She's really trying to think about which side to pick. "I think you look fine," Alex says.
Amy cocks her eyebrow and then smirks at me. "Let's go," she says.
Amy walks out the door and Alex and I are following her. I lean to Alex. "Just so you know you just gave her the confidence boost she needed so now she's really going to go wild at the party."
PARTY!!
First frat party of the new semester and this place is packed. The music is pumping through the loud speakers and cups are full with alcohol. Alex, Amy, and I had arrived with my friends Erin and Michelle but those two decided to go and try to get some guys, which shouldn't be too hard.
Alex says something but I can't hear her over the music. "What?!?" I yell.
"This is my first frat party!" she yells back.
"Oh!"
Alex looks down into her red cup. "What am I drinking?"
"Jungle juice!" Amy yells and drowns another cup.
I take the now empty cup away from her and point my finger at her. "What the hell are you doing?"
"I'm drinking, duh," Amy says and tries to snatch the cup back. I can already tell she's buzzed.
"You know as well as I do how hard and fast this stuff hits you. Calm down on the drinking." I hand her the cup back as she's sticking her tongue out at me.
I drink some of my juice from my cup and see Alex do the same thing. I do not feel a buzz yet, but it's still early. A blonde guy is walking straight toward Alex and me. He's part of the fraternity because he's wearing the letters and his eyes are set on Alex. Oh this should be entertaining.
"Hi," the guy greets Alex.
Alex looks at me and rolls her eyes. She turns back to the guy. "Hey," she says uninterested. She drinks some more of her juice.
"I'm Adam," the frat guy says and now he's holding out his hand.
Alex shakes Adam's hand. "Alex," she says.
"Alex," Adam repeats her name while nodding his head. "Kind of weird isn't it?"
"What is?"
"Your name's Alex and I'm Adam, A and A." Adam flashes Alex a stereotypical frat boy smile. "It's sort of like fate."
I start laughing. This guy is way too funny. I hold my cup up to my mouth so the guy doesn't notice me laughing. Alex turns to me with a look of horror on her face. Her eyes are screaming out for me to help her. I shake my head while laughing in my cup. I pull my cup away from my mouth and say I silent "No".
"So would you like to dance?" Adam asks Alex.
"Actually-"
"She would love to," I tell Adam, interrupting whatever Alex was going to say.
Alex's eyes are shooting daggers at me now. "Jordan I should stay here with you and keep you company," Alex says with fake concern.
I shake my head disagreeing with her. "You should go have fun with Adam. I'll be fine here." I smile at both of them.
Adam nods his head. "Cool," he says. He grabs Alex's hand and now they're heading to the dance floor.
Alex turns her head, facing me, and slides a finger across her throat and points at me. I just smile and give her a thumbs up. Watching Alex "dance" with this guy is the most hilarious thing I've ever seen. It's not that Alex sucks at dancing, because she doesn't , it's just that every time Adam tried to get close to Alex she either slightly pushes him or maneuvers herself out of the way.
Suddenly I feel an arm around my shoulder. I look to see who's touching me. Oh, it's just a slightly tipsy Amy who has another full cup of juice in her hand.
Amy is giving me a questioning look. "I thought Alex was a lesbian like you," she slightly slurs. "Why is she dancing with that guy?" Amy seems genuinely confused.
I chuckle a little bit. "She is a lesbian," I tell Amy. "The guy asked her to dance and I kind of pushed her to him."
"Oh, that's nice." Amy takes a sip of her drink. "Guess what," she sings.
"What?" I sing back.
"Tammy's here," she says simply and giggles.
Wait, what! I look at Amy wide-eyed. "You're kidding right?" I ask her seriously.
Amy shakes her head. "Nope."
Oh shit, oh shit. I thought I wouldn't see her until classes start. Fuck, what am I going to do? I down the rest of my cup of juice. I then snatch Amy's cup and down that to.
"Hey!" she shouts angrily.
I let the alcohol flow through my body. I need to be buzzed right now. I hang my head down and sort of shake my body.
"I hate you so much right now," I hear Alex say.
I look up and Alex is standing right in front of me. I focus on the red cup that's in her hand. I snatch her cup from her and down the rest of juice, which wasn't much. Oo, suddenly I feel a head rush.
"Are you ok?" Alex asks.
"Tammy's here," Amy answers for me.
Alex's face sort of lights up. I do not like that look of excitement.
"Where is she?" Alex asks excitedly.
Amy points to the corner where Tammy and some girl are talking.
"She's the black girl in the jean skirt and green top," Amy tells Alex.
Alex looks to where Amy is pointing. "Oh, she's cute," Alex says.
I nod my head in agreement. "Yeah she is," I say. "Never said she wasn't."
"Go talk to her."
I look at Alex with a "what-the-fuck" look. I place a hand on Alex's shoulder and sort of balance myself. "And say what to her?"
Alex places her hands on my shoulders. "Jordan, do you like this girl?"
I'm definitely tipsy right now which is opening another part of my mind. Do I like Tammy? I mean I do find her attractive and if I remember correctly she was pretty smart back in high school. I think the only turn-offs were her perkiness and the fact that she tried a little too hard with me. But then there's still Beth. My heart still belongs to her.
"Jordan! Jordan!" Alex is yelling my name while snapping her fingers in front of me.
I snap out of my thinking. I look back to where Tammy is standing. I want to but it's just…
"You're either going to talk to her or not," Amy says in a bored tone. I can tell she's starting to sober up a bit.
I look at Alex. "What about Beth?" I ask her.
Alex sighs and looks back at me with some sadness in her eyes. "Jordan," she says concerned. "You and Beth broke up awhile ago. You have to try to at least move on, at least till the summer."
Alex is right; I have to try to move on. Also my tipsy state of mind is sort of going into Tammy's favor right now anyway.
I'm nodding my head. "Ok, I'll go talk to her."
I feel Alex slap my back. "Good, go get her."
Alex sort of pushes me which doesn't help since I stumble a bit. I'm walking toward Tammy and her friend now. I can do this, I can do this. I'm getting closer and closer with each step I take. I finally reach them. Oh God, they're both looking at me weirdly.
I raise a hand up. "Hi," I greet them nervously.
"Rachel I'll talk to you later," Tammy tells her friend. Her friend nods her head and is walking away while giving me an odd look.
Tammy turns to me and crosses her arms. She does not look happy. "What do you want Jordan?" she asks with attitude. What happened to the love?
"Umm how was your break?" I ask her.
"Do you actually care?"
Ouch. "Yeah, that's why I'm asking."
Tammy sighs. "It was good." Tammy runs her hands through her hair. "Look Jordan I don't know what kind of game you're playing but I'm not playing anymore. It's not fair what you're doing to me and I don't deserve it. I am an amazing girl and if you can't realize it then that's your fault. I am too smart, talented, pretty-"
This girl is just going on and on. She never shuts up, God. I lean in quickly and capture her lips with mine. They tastes like strawberry, I like strawberry. I caught Tammy by surprise but she's kissing me back now. I put my hands on her hips and pull her closer to me. Suddenly she jerks away.
"What are you doing?!?" Tammy exclaims. "Was that your way of shutting me up again because if so Jordan Johnson-."
"I want to be with you!" I exclaim and interrupt another rant.
Tammy is looking at me with a blank face. "What?"
I pull her back to me and rest my forehead against hers. "I want to be with you," I tell her.
"Are you saying this because you're drunk?" she asks me.
I groan and shake my head. I pull her into another kiss and this one feels like it could get pretty heated.
"Woo! Yeah!" I hear stupid frat guys cheering us on.
Tammy and I pull apart. "Want to go back to my room?" Tammy asks.
All I do is nod because the thought of what we might do at her place is keeping me from forming any words at the moment. Tammy is pulling my hand leading me to the exit. I look back to Alex and Amy and they're both giving me thumbs up.
Tammy and I grab a freshman frat brother to drive us back to the dorms. Tammy and I are in the backseat and we can't keep our hands off of each other. She has her hand on my thigh squeezing it.
The frat guy is trying to look at us through his rearview mirror.
"Keep your eyes on the road perv!" I yell.
He averts his eyes back to the road while I capture Tammy's lips with mine again. I just can't stop kissing her.
Tammy's Dorm:
I have Tammy up against her door out in the hallway. We're not even in the room yet but I wanted to kiss her again so I did. Tammy lightly pushes me away.
"Let me at least open the door," she says and giggles. As she's trying to get her keys into the lock I'm kissing and sucking on her neck. She's moaning and having a hard time opening the door. She
finally opens the door and we both rush in as I slam the door behind me. I kick my shoes off and I have Tammy up against her bed. I'm kissing down her throat sucking on her pulse point.
"God Jordan," she moans. Hearing my name being moaned turns me on and a fire within me lights up. I slide my tongue along her bottom lip asking for entrance and she gladly opens her mouth. Our tongues are dueling for dominance and at this point I know I can no longer control myself. I'm sliding my hands up Tammy's shirt as she's unbuttoning mine. Tammy throws my shirt off into some unknown land. We pull apart so she can take off her shirt and so I can take off my wife beater. Tammy and I climb onto her bed and I begin another assault on her neck while my hand is on her ass. I'm sliding my other hand up her skirt.
"Wait, wait," Tammy says and slightly pushes me away.
I give her a questioning look. "What?"
"Are you sure you want to do this?"
I take her lips into mine once again. I pull away. "Yes, I am totally sure," I assure her.
She grins at me and pulls me back down. Looks like Tammy is going to have her own party in her bedroom.
A/N: So the only appearances Paige will be making for awhile are through memories. I need you guys to see how Alex adjusts to life without Paige in a new place. Don't worry I will reunite them again but not quite yet. So what did y'all think of the chapter and of Jordan and Tammy? Will Jordan regret her little party in Tammy's bedroom?
