..And so the second chapter begins!
Matt and Jenna walked to the pub their arms linked together, giggling and chatting most of the way like excited little children. Once they reached the pub they walked inside to a bunch of people talking loudly, music was blaring. Everyone greeted them and they did their best to stay together, but they were soon pulled apart by many of the cast once again.
Matt soon found Jenna again and pulled her in by the waist, so she would hopefully stay without being pulled away by someone again. "You just keep getting away from me." he teased.
"I don't try too." she stated.
He smiled at her and she smiled back.
"Can I offer you a drink?" he asked.
"Oh yes please." she laughed, it had been a long day.
Matt took her hand into his and walked over to the bar with her. He ordered two bourbons and cokes and passed one to her once the bartender had made it up.
"Cheers big ears." he said holding his drink up across from hers.
"Oi, watch it." she narrowed her eyes at him and tapped her drink against his with a large clink.
He matched her eyes, teasing her before taking a sip of his drink. She took a sip as well.
Suddenly one of the camera men, Brad approached them with a smile. "Matt." he nodded. "Jenna." his eyes brightened. "Do you want to dance with me?" he asked.
Matt couldn't help but scoff and Brad ignored it, Jenna couldn't help but almost laugh. She smirked instead at him then looked at Brad. Brad had been crushing on Jenna for a very long time, everybody had known that. Unfortunately, for him though, the feeling just wasn't mutual.
"No thank you Brad" she said softly, it came out more bluntly though than she had wanted it too.
Brad's smile faded. "O-okay." he stammered.
"Sorry." Jen spoke again, a gentle smile on her face. She at least tried to be kind to him.
Brad walked away then in defeat and Jenna looked over at Matt waiting to see his reaction, but Matt was still looking at Brad walk away.
"Ouch." he said as he looked back at her.
"Oh please." she replied. "What was that little scoff?" she asked him. "Is somebody jealous?"
"Yes."
"What?" she blushed, her eyes meeting him now.
"Of course I am." he stated, as if was the most obvious thing to be said. It was. In the same way that everybody knew Brad had a thing for Jenna, they all knew Matt and Jenna were just meant to be together. Matt even knew it, Jenna did too.
Jenna didn't reply and Matt became worried. He placed a hand to her bare knee and looked up at her. "Jen."
"Matt." she replied, acknowledging him now.
"We should leave after we have a drink and dance." he chuckled, although it was clear he also meant what he was saying.
She kept eye contact with him and nodded, "we should." she replied.
They finished off their drinks not long after and Matt stood to his feet taking her hand. "Come on then, lets boogey." he teased.
Jenna laughed and stood up taking his hand into hers.
"If we must." she replied.
"Oh we must." he said, walking over to the dance floor with her.
Once they approached the dance floor Matt showed off his moves, the same moves he always used in the show to dance. Jenna giggled watching him and was forced to mimic him. They danced together for a while to some upbeat music before a slower song came on.
Matt lent closer to Jenna and placed his arms on her waist, the distance between them at a minimum now. She placed her arms around his neck, and they looked into each other's eyes, both were glowing.
"We should go after this song." Matt whispered to her.
She shivered at his warm breath as it touched her neck gently. "What if people wonder where we are?" she asked. "It is your party after all." she whispered back.
"Oh well," he replied. "I'd rather be with you somewhere else."
That statement made Jenna shiver again. "Okay." she whispered, giving in to him. How could she not? He did it so well, everything.
They continued dancing until the song was over and Matt took Jenna's hand leading her over to the door. They were leaving without even saying goodbye to anyone. Jenna couldn't help the butterflies fluttering around in her stomach then, she almost felt wicked, she felt ecstatic.
Once they got outside, without another word spoken yet Matt broke into a large chuckle and Jenna looked at him giggling. "That was fun." she giggled some more.
"I feel a little bad for doing that." he chuckled. "But, yes, it was fun."
She raised an eyebrow. "What happened to your bad boy attitude Matt?" she teased.
He chuckled some more. "Oh, true, I guess it wasn't that bad what we did though."
"I'd still like to think it was." Jenna met his eyes again, and spoke softly, but earnestly.
Matt swallowed deeply, having not let go of her hand yet. He squeezed it. "Come on." he said and led her back to the studios.
Once again I hope you enjoyed!
