The next morning Thalia pulled up at the studio and easily found the parking space that had been reserved for her. It even had her name printed neatly on a marker. As she was getting out of her car she heard a low appreciative whistle. She turned in the direction of the sound and found Jared walking her way. He strode toward her on long, strong legs. He was wearing a pair of nice fitting jeans and a black v neck tee shirt. Thalia made a mental note to make sure he wore a tee shirt as much as she could get him to. He filled this one out nicely and she found herself wondering what was under that shirt. "I should have known you would drive a hot car.", Jared said as he stopped and looked her car over before turning his gaze onto her. "What can I say? I love American muscle but wanted something a little newer. I love how much like the older cars the new Challengers look so I indulged myself.", Thalia looks up at Jared and tucked a strand of auburn hair behind her ear. "Well I like it. Here let me walk you in.", Jared says with a playful smile on his face.
Just as they began walking a large dog loped up to Jared and licked his hand. He stopped and squatted down so he was on the dog's level and ruffled it's hair and took a ball from it's mouth. The dog, who was on it's haunches, jumped to all fours and began spinning in a circle and watching Jared, wanting him to throw the ball. Jared stood and threw the ball as hard and far as he could. The dog bounded off in that direction in search of the treasure. Jared turned back to Thalia, "That is Sadie. She loves to play fetch. I'll introduce you to her better when she's settled down some. She's been in my trailer all night." Thalia nodded not really knowing what to say but feeing even more intrigued after seeing Jared interact with his dog. They walked together to the building where Tiara's office was and when they got to the door Jared quickly grabbed the handle and opened it for Thalia. He held it open for her to go in first and then followed her inside.
They found Jensen and Tiara inside sitting on a couch. Jensen was sitting in the middle and Tiara was sitting with her back against one arm and her legs thrown over one of Jensen's. She had her fingers in his hair and he had his hands on her thigh. They were smiling and flirting and Thalia thought how lucky Tiara was to have this gorgeous man so enamored with her. She shyly looked up at Jared and then she saw the mischievous look spread across his face. "What have I told you two? I mean you could have stayed in the trailer longer if you weren't finished!" He walked up behind Jensen and playfully slapped the side of his head. Jensen was quick and grabbed Jared's arm and nearly pulled him over the back of the couch with the surprise attack. "You're one to talk. Looks like you just happened to be outside when Thalia drove up.", Jensen quipped. Not one to be discouraged, Jared fired off, "Yeah well I wanted her to have a nice greeting on her first day at work."
Tiara stood and gave both guys a withering look, "Both of you cut it out now. I think they need you to get ready for shooting. Get on out of here so I can get Thalia settled in." Tiara kissed Jensen on the cheek and gave him a hand up off the couch and then she playfully pushed Jared toward the door. Jared pretended to pout and then grabbed Tiara before she knew it, picked her up off the ground and swung her around. Tiara squealed, "Jared put me down you crazy boy!" Jared laughed like a kid and sat Tiara on the floor making sure she wasn't too drunk to fall before he let her go. Jensen kissed Tiara, "Come on you giant 5 year old.", he said to Jared. Jared nodded but turned to Thalia, "I'm going to come check on you later. Let me know if you need anything." With that he leaned down and gave her a little hug. He stood and looked down at her, "Damn girl you smell good!" Thalia blushed a little, "Thanks. It's Rihanna's perfume. It's called Nude." This caused Jared to get a wicked look in his eyes before he followed Jensen out the door.
******************************************
As the door shut behind them Jensen turned to Jared. "What the hell man? I've never seen you act like this. I mean I know you and Gen flirted some when she was here but dang!" Jared ran his hand through his hair and shook his head. "I don't know man. This little girl has got me feeling all kinds of crazy." He kicks a rock that's close to the toe of his boot and then sees Sadie as she trots up to him. He gives her ears a scratch but doesn't take the ball and throw it for her. "Well she is cute.", Jensen says as he claps Jared on the back and they head in the direction of their trailers. When they reach their trailers they decide to go their separate ways.
Jared went inside and Sadie followed him up the steps. He was trying to figure out just what he was doing. He sat on the couch and flipped on his stereo. Pearl Jam was playing and he laid his head back on the back of the couch. Sadie climbed up on the couch beside him and laid her head in his lap. He absentmindedly rubbed her head. With his eyes closed he could see auburn hair and green eyes swimming in his thoughts. He longed to run his fingers through her hair and to kiss those pouty lips. He wondered if she had freckles everywhere like the ones that were on her nose. And he wondered just how small she would feel in his arms….in his bed. He sat and let his mind wander and soon his jeans grew tight. He felt Sadie get up and leave the couch but he didn't open his eyes. He continued to daydream about Thalia and how her small, round breasts would feel in his hands. His erection was almost unbearable at this point. He reached to adjust himself through his jeans and groaned at the thought of that being her hand instead of his own.
Before he got to the point of no return he stood from his place on the couch and grabbed the darts from the dart board on the wall. He decided to take out his sexual frustrations on the dart board instead. He reached and turned up his music and then lined up with the board. Taking a deep breath to try and steady his pounding heart he reared back and threw the first dart. It completely missed the board and impaled the wall below. He rarely ever missed and he shut his eyes and shook himself. Thalia was driving him crazy. He either needed to get himself under control or he needed to find some way to have her. Opening his eyes he glared at the board again and made a second attempt at hitting the board. Again he missed and this time it went wider than the first. He quickly strode over to the wall and pulled the two darts from it.
It was then he heard a knock at his door. Walking over he jerked it open expecting it to be Jensen. His breath caught when he saw Thalia standing on the bottom step. He quickly stepped behind the door, giving her access to come in and himself a cover so that he could again adjust his growing need. "Come in.", he said as he looked down at Thalia. She walked in and he closed the door behind her. "Excuse me. I was just on my way to the restroom when you knocked.", he lied. Thalia nodded and yelled over the music, "No problem. I'll be right here." Jared cursed himself in his mind as he quickly strode to the back of the trailer and yanked open the bathroom door. He stepped inside and then took a deep breath with his hand against the back wall. His head fell forward. Damn that was close! He unzipped his jeans and adjusted himself trying to find the best position. Finally with a sigh of relief he could tell he was almost out of the woods. He zipped his jeans and checked himself in the mirror one last time. Satisfied that things were safe he took one last deep breath and opened the door.
When he walked into the living room his heart skipped a beat. Thalia was sitting on his couch and Sadie was curled up beside her. Sadie was friendly but she didn't always take to new people right at first. She had only been this way with Jensen and Tiara. "Hey I see Sadie has made herself at home with you. I'm sorry if you didn't want her up there.", Jared says as he comes in and sits on the couch with Sadie between himself and Thalia. "Oh no she's great. I love dogs and well animals of all kinds really.", Thalia says and smiles at Jared. Jared's breath catches as her green eyes sparkle through her smile. Jared can feel a strong desire to tuck her hair behind her ear and to kiss her but he forces himself not to.
"So were you just out checking out things or what?", he says trying to make conversation and keep his mind off of things that could get him in trouble again. "Oh I needed to fit you for your wardrobe for the next episode and wasn't sure how to call you.", Thalia's eyes never leave Jared's and he suddenly is at a loss for words. Thalia can feel the tension and stands, "Well if you'll come with me we'll get started." Jared stands to his full height and the closeness of the trailer is almost unbearable. Thalia's perfume assaults his senses and he can feel his desire stirring again. He needs to get them out of there quickly before he picks up Thalia, carries her to his bed and takes her right there. Thalia finally starts toward the door and Jared quickly turns his stereo off and follows her to the wardrobe trailer so she can get his measurements.
