Sinjin shivered as he watched his ex walk towards him. "Saturday night?" It sounded like a question, except he knew the answer. Her Spanish accent, think, but understandable, hinted at her country of origin, but unknown to so many people she spoke fluent English.
"I think I'm busy…" He tried, but he already knew it was no use. Gabriella wasn't going to just let him go. The girl had a thing for nerdy boys, and had decided that he was the nerd for her.
"I'll pick you up around seven." She said confident she would get her way. "Be ready for swimming. I feel like doing something physical." Her smile was as much a warning as a reflection of how happy the thought made her.
"We have a pool." The boy tried.
"Except it'll be getting dark." She countered. "We'll wanna stay warm." She shifted, trying to look cute, innocent. He had no idea if that was even true, just her love of nerds had driven her to be clingy, something he should never have thought possible. Only, the boy had confidence, almost delusionally so, so her desire to hold on was somewhat off-putting.
"Yea…" He looked to his friends, hoping someone could rescue him. 'Jade could. She's the type to get what she wants.' His moment of hope faded. 'Only she made it very clear, she doesn't want me. Beck may be my friend, but he doesn't have nearly the control over his woman he'd need to get her to talk to Gabby. God, why'd she have to be so needy?'
"Look, I get it, you think I'm needy." She whispered, both to force them closer, just to hear one another, and because she maintained an image of not really understanding what people were saying. It allowed her to control who asked her out, and reject the guys she didn't want to go out with by pretending she just didn't understand. "I may not like dealing with your attitude sometimes, but I let you have your space." Her eyes narrowed. "Otherwise, I'd never let you near those girls." She slipped around, behind him, to point his body at the girls she meant. "You know, the one's you've been stalking?" Her voice softened. "I get it, they're the popular girls, the one's everyone wants to be near. Except for Trina, but she's popular adjacent."
She slid around him again, once more facing him. "Problem is, to them, your a stalker, creepy. They don't see how sweet you can be" Brown eyes held him fast. "They have no idea how much of a good man you are, hidden inside that quirky family of yours."
Her eyes narrowed as she glanced back at Tori, who was arguing with Jade about something. Cat was there, happily joining in, talking about who knows what, as lately, she'd gotten even more into just having her own conversation, regardless of if her companions were there or not. "Tori tried to talk to me." She admitted, drawing the boy back. "Spoke Spanish at me, let me know that she felt I may be dating someone without knowing what I was getting."
"Tori's a good egg." Sinjin said, smiling. He felt a warmth he often mistook for more then the friendship the younger Vega girl offered even him, despite his weirdness.
"And I'm not that innocent." Gabby snapped. Her eyes, now hard, glared through the boy. Seconds passed as she let go of that steel, the metal behind her silky smooth touch. "Look, I get it, it's just coincidences that my dad knows your mom. I had no idea YOU were part of what she was offering, back when she promised dad to let him have one of her children. Honestly, I'd have guessed she was offering Courtney. Hell, Dad thought so too. But we don't do much in trafficking Americans. Too dangerous, cause we may well wind up getting the attention of people we don't want to deal with." Her smile returned. "Sides, your dad can pay your moms debts. So believe me when I say, I'm not perusing you to fulfill any of my families goals. My dad barely cares about me. He only wants, well, yea…" She shrugged. "Dad would accept me being with you, cause we have a familial relationship. So I traded one nerd for another."
"Yea, traded." He was more scared now, because his sweet, clingy girl had just reminded him of something his father had warned him about, how his new girlfriend was connected to a crime family. Maybe she was the mistresses daughter, and thus not really in the family proper. Only, she was, if only adjacent. Sinjin had the problem now that he wasn't able to control if he continued to date this girl or not. Girls held to much control over his life, as she'd just pointed out, even as she pretended she wasn't using the very leverage she held so easaly.
"You know what the biggest difference between you two is?" She dropped, smiling a friendly grin towards Cat, who was still glaring at her.
"He has Cat?" The lanky boy guessed.
"No, he doesn't, because she doesn't see the advantages of a boy like him." A touch of darkness edged into her voice. It vanished a moment later. "The biggest difference is, Robbie should be more popular. He's nerdy, and has that puppet, but he's so close to the main people. And, and they can see it, they can see why girls should want to date him, date you." Her head spun around, eyes now locked on the boy again. "It's not about your money. This, it's about that connection, and we have it. I get that your scared, but we have it."
"I want…" He started.
"To be free?" She finished. "For what? To pine after a girl you'll never get? Or maybe to start perusing those girls who will see daddies bank account, and want the security, love be damned. Me, I have a type, and you fit it to a tee. The fact that we have the connection, our families, that just makes it destiny."
She stepped away, her voice still low. "I'll pick you up Saturday, around Seven, maybe a touch earlier, so we can have a nice, causal dinner before I show you the advantages of our indoor pool." She started walking away, her hips sawing just a touch more then normal. "Like the privacy."
Sinjin staggered away from his not quite ex girlfriend. He wasn't sure why she held on so tight, when she was right, he had problems keeping anyone interested enough to date him. Quick steps took him to his friend, looking for advice. "Beck!"
"Sinjin?" The popular boy asked, seeing the look on the tall boys face. "Is someone picking on you again? I told you, Jade's not that easy to deal with. She'll tolerate you, just as long as you don't do anything to set her off, like breathing near her." He sighed. "My girls has her issues."
"She just doesn't know me." He said, anxious to get back to his own issues. "Like last year, the three hole punch drama. I could have told her I wasn't gonna fit in that thing, so there was no way she could hole punched me to death. Only, she wanted to make sure, even if she claimed she had no intent of actually punching any holes. Man, who'd have thought it'd hurt used that way?"
"Jade does have some deranged, and oddly specific, fantasies about school supplies." The actor noted. "So, if it's not Jade, then who's picking on you. Maybe we can find us a way of talking them out of anything to extreme."
"It's not, I mean…" The curly haired boy gulped. "I have a stalker."
"What now?" Beck asked, sure he'd heard that wrong.
"I have a stalker." Sinjin repeated. "That girl, Gabriella, she didn't like me breaking up with her."
"Cause she was clingy." Beck nodded. "We all just assumed that was your excuse, and she'd gone running into the… I mean, she found a hotter boy."
"Girls had nerd issues." Sinjin shrugged. "She told me we weren't broken up, because I didn't do it right, and she doesn't except that I wanted more freedom." He looked to the side. "Truth be told, I kinda lost interest when I realized she was only drawn to me because of my nerdyness. I wanted her to like me for being cool."
"Dude, sometimes it's better to go for what we can get, then hold out for some fantasy." The heart throb warned.
"Says the boy every girl wants." Sinjin didn't want to sound bitter. He knew Beck was a good guy, part of the reason so many girls liked him.
"Which is why I realized that sometimes, you need to see the good of the person your with." Beck said. "I never thought I'd miss Jade, up until I did. Girls doesn't seem like a catch…"
"She's so pretty." The taller boy tossed in.
"Dud, she tried to hole punch you." Beck snapped. "Sorry, but she takes a lot to keep, simply because she's so demanding. And, and I get it, she's always gonna be a problem, because she's so, er…"
"Demanding?" Sinjin guessed.
"Damaged." Beck admitted.
"Gabby's kinda damaged too." Sinjin confessed. "Turns out she's the daughter of one of my mothers contacts, from Mexico, so she feels we're kinda destiny. It's one of the reasons she doesn't wanna let go, and now, I'm scared. How do I convince her to just let me be?"
"You spoke to her?" Beck tried.
"She said I had it wrong, and told me we were going out on Saturday." Sinjin explained.
"Why not Friday?" The popular actor asked.
"I didn't ask." The taller boy napped. "I was too busy being coerced into dating a girl I don't wanna be with."
"Because of the whole mom thing?" Beck guessed.
"Because I can get her." Sinjin let out with a sigh. "For a while, I thought it was the whole misunderstanding thing, until I realized she speaks nearly perfect English. Accented, but understands every word we say. So then I thought, it was just her wanting a Nerd. Don't wanna be stereotyped. I'd date her if she were into me because I'm cool, but not because I'm a nerd."
"HA!" Trina fake laughed. "Never once thought I'd say it, but you're echoing Groucho Marx." She smiled, only to realize she needed to provide more. "He once said something to the effect of never wanting to belong to any club that would have him as a member. See, that's where you are. You don't wanna date any girl so desperate as to want to date you. Cat, you know, KNOW she can do better. Plus, she's one of the main people. You want her, because it says you're one of the main people. Only, you're not on of them. Robbie is, cause when he doesn't try so hard, he's one of the better actors in the school. But you, you're a good student, and Gabby may well be the best you ever get."
"Sorry, Trina, but t his is a private conversation." Sinjin said but is voice lacked any bite, or the authority to make her want to leave.
"And as much as it frightens me, Trina is right." Beck agreed. "So talk to her, Gabby. If you really wanna break up, let her know you have good reasons. But she's not a stalker, because she doesn't pose a danger to you or your friends. She just, I don't know. She let Rob go without a fight, so I don't understand why she's holding onto you so tightly."
"She still might be cray cray." Trina warned. "Cause is she wants to date nerds, no shortage of those here."
"No shortage anywhere." Beck agreed. "Think that Robbie's popularity made him to main stream for her?"
"Not sure." Trina shrugged.
"What about my problem." Sinjin bugged them.
"I told you, talk to her." Beck cautioned.
"Or ask Beck here to ask Jade." Trina added. "I'd ask Tori, but you know how delicate that situation is."
"What situation?" Sinjin asked.
"So, Trina, have you noticed how, when you just acted normal, we could have an actual conversation?" Beck asked the girl.
"What situation?" Sinjin repeated.
"So, what kind of date, and why didn't she want to hang out on Friday night?" Trina pushed, oddly ignoring Beck.
"She has a performance." Sinjin said. "I'm helping do the lighting for it. Her dad may even show up, if he can cross the boarder."
"Yea, that doesn't sound like trouble." Beck told his friend.
"And Beck, the reason I can be so calm is I realized, as much as we're destined to be together, you need time now that your Ex tore your heart out and danced on it." Trina explained.
"First, she didn't tear out my heart." Beck countered. "I'm the one who set that whole mess up. And I'll need your help to clean it up. So, lets leave that said, and focus for now on Sinjin's problem."
"Thanks." The lanky boy got out before his friend was talking again.
"And second, we both have to realize, I'm not into the kinds of challenges you represent." Beck continued. "Heck, I was shocked when that girl I was chatting up…"
"Marcy, and it's too early." Trina jumped in. "You need time to recover."
"… Told me she thought you were really pretty." Beck pushed on. "Never once thought of you that way, not even for a three way, and god, I was so sure I could have had you, any way I wanted, cause you were and are so desperate."
"Marcy's not gay." Trina told him. "But she has tried to set me up with like half a dozen girls in the last thee weeks, so I'm thinking she thinks I am…"
Sinjin had walked off, now sure that his friends problems would dominate their talk for some time to come. 'Gabriella may be determined, but she's not dangerous, just demanding. I mean, maybe she's just drawn to my raw animal magnetism?'
/
Bolstered by Beck's pep talk, Sinjin agreed to go ahead and have that date with Gabby. He even made sure to give her his full support at the performance, because she was his girlfriend, for now, despite his best effort to break up. "Like you'll find another like her?" Some guy poked at the nerdy boy. "Lets be honest, it's only her vast misunderstanding of who and what you are that keeps her around you. Once she learns English, you're gone."
The tech nerd considered his many retorts, like how she speaks English, or that she knows exactly what she's doing. However, after he'd considered his many options, he was able to come to one that cost him the least, and got his point across. "Get back to work. I need the curtains ready to be swapped out after this dance, and we're going to the translucent red, so we can have the live orchestra behind them during the dance. And for the love of music, make sure everyone's wired properly. Modern theater is as electronic as anything, and the audience needs to be able to hear a nice, balanced sound from the orchestra."
"You don't tell me what to do." The boy, tall and solid, protested.
"Actually, he does." The faculty advisor corrected. "He's the crew chief, so what he says, goes."
"Honestly, if I trusted you as a followspot operator, you'd be up in the lights now, away from my crew." Sinjin told the boy. "So far, all you've been good for is manual labor, as long as it's under competent supervision. So, focus, man, cause this is a career you're learning. Figure this chiz out, and you'll put food on the table for the rest of your life." He shifted, looking to his Best Boy. "Burf, make sure he see's how we're rigging the mikes, so he can learn. But this performance, it's too important, so you may have to do the rigging yourself."
The dark skinned boy stepped to the big guy. "Hold my squash." He ordered, handing the vegetable over before leading the way to where the orchestra was set up to go over the mike rigging and make sure everything was ready. The would be bully was left to follow, reminded that the tech nerds actually ran a fair portion of the school.
Later, Gabriella stopped by to give him a kiss before she headed off to speak to her family. Burf gave a low whistle, watching as the girl headed off. "Looks like you two made up." He told his friend. "She must have come to her senses, realized how good you were for her."
"She vetoed my breakup." Sinjin told his buddy. "Beck said I should give her a try, because she's a good egg, even if she can be a bit clingy."
"I don't know." The vegetable lover noted. "She never tries to interfere with us hanging out. Maybe she doesn't like it when you stalk the Vega's?"
"Sikowitz thinks I'm just scared." The lanky boy offered. "Hard to accept when someone wants you. Especially Gabby, cause she has a real thing for nerds." He made a sour face. "Hate being loved for being a nerd. Not a nerd."
"Yea, Sikowitz may be right." Burf sighed. "Kinda wondering when I get one."
"Trust me, you don't know the real Gabby." Sinjin warned. "Not that she's a bad person, but she has so much baggage in her family, sometimes it makes me worry that she's not all there. Girl has issues, and I'm scared about where they're gonna take her."
"Apparently, on a date with you, tomorrow night." Burf said, smiling. "So, why an evening swimming date?"
"I have a race, and she has something she's doing." Sinjin shrugged. "We'll be in a form of indoor pool, so we'll be plenty warm."
Later, the next evening, Gabby showed up in her car, smiling a huge smile as she walked her boyfriend to the car. "I think tonight's gonna be a very special date." She told the boy.
"I sure hope so." He smiled, relaxing into the passenger seat of her car. "Nice car."
"My dad gave it to me." She said, looking ahead. "Just like so much of my family chiz, this is a car he'd used for business, and when he got a new once, he gave me this one."
"So hand me downs." The tech nerd said.
"Yea, cause we're not his real family, just a byproduct of his fooling around." She confirmed. "Still, we do okay. Down side, my mom, she has to work to support me. But dad's first wife, she made sure my mom got an education, and helped us move here, so she can earn a good living. We do okay."
"Glad to hear it." Sinjin said, nodding. "My mom wants to tell your dad hi."
"Yea, my dad won't remember." Gabby said, suddenly very honest. Once again, Sinjin missed the warning signs his girlfriend often gave when things were about to change.
They got to her place, a house he'd visited a few times before. Only this time, he was heading in deeper then before, to the pool, deeper then the usual guest parts of the house. He was shown where the indoor pool was, more of a shaded greenhouse style structure built around the pool, complete with a short connecting hallway, as well as several sliding walls that allowed the pool access to the back yard. "So, where's your mom?"
"Out for the evening." Gabriella told him, a large smile on her face. "You eat yet?"
"Yea, kinda surprised you didn't wanna eat together." He shrugged.
"Had a meal with my uncle." She told him. "So, lets get ready for the pool, and later, maybe something for desert."
He looked around. "Where can we get changed?" She pointed to a restroom.
"There's another one in the pool house, cause my mom wanted one, but this'll do for getting changed." She glanced behind her. "Gonna hit my room and get changed." She started. "Need a towel?"
"Got one." He told her, heading to get changed.
Once he was changed, he managed to find his way to the pool, down the small walkway into the greenhouse style pool house. He was amused by the whole design, fascinated by the way the whole thing was built. 'It's shaded.' He told himself. 'Greened glass that allows the sunlight and warmth in, but gives us a decent amount of concealment from prying eyes. Cool. I guess they don't need their neighbors knowing when they're in the pool…'
He then turned his attention to the poolside, where the cement bordered the pool, and just a few feet beyond, a wooden deck. 'They have a few deck chairs there.' He noted. "Guessing I'll put my stuff next to one, and get ready to hit the water. I wonder, how cold is the pool, and is the hot tub on?'
Moments later, Gabriella walked in wearing a robe. "So, like what you see?" She asked.
"This whole thing is so neat." The boy said. "I love the way this has been put together. It looks like you used existing technologies to make everything, but repurposed it all so that you have an indoor pool. And the deck, it's pressure treated wood designed to resit weather, and as such, probably'll last as a place to warm up after a dip in the pool. Plus, deck chairs."
"Not enough room for much, but we did make it as nice as we could." The girl admitted. "Yea, my mom, she's really into this kind of design. Went to collage and everything, learning to do interior design, and she came up with this kind of pool house back when we moved here."
"Your mom?' The nerdy boy asked. "Sorry, I just assumed…"
"You were right." Gabby jumped in. "She wasn't very educated when my dad had her as his mistress. Only, his wife, she isn't the type to kill off a rival, not when there are other alternatives. So, I guess she paid for my mom to get an education, just so I would be taken care of, but not too directly connected to my dad."
"I see." Sinjin nodded.
"My mom also studied Architecture, but that business is so hard to make it in." The Latin girl continued. "She mostly does modifications to existing homes and structures, combining her interior design skills with her architecture skills, and makes the whole thing look nice."
The boy smiled. "So, if's getting late, but we do have the lights, and the warmth, so lets get swimming." He walked to the edge of the pool, guessing at how deep the water was. "Four feet? No problem, lets get wet."
"Couldn't agree more." Gabby agreed, dropping her robe, tossing it on her deck chair, next to her towel, and the spare towel she'd brought, just in case. Her date, however, hadn't notice, while his hand had dipped into the pool to guess at the temperature. "So, tell me, what do you think is supposed to happen tonight, with my mom out, and us here, all alone?"
"I don't…" His eyes bulged as he looked back, taking in Gabriella's smooth, naked form. Beyond the flip flops she'd yet to discard, Gabby was naked.
"I don't want you to take this the wrong way." She assured him. "I'm here to punch your V card. Before we're done, I'll have shown you just how much I want this relationship." Her smile grew, just a touch. "And don't worry, I understand just how little protection a condom offers when mixed with a Saltwater pool, so I'm on the pill."
Sinjin stood up, stepping back one step, and promptly fell in the pool. Splashing around, he tried to regain control, even as he felt his life slipping away. After all, he had once almost drown in a kiddie pool.
Gabby pulled him out, holding his head over the water, even as her small breasts pushed into his side. "Look, it's all okay. Gabby's here. Lets get you to the side, and from there, we can make sure you're safe." She smiled, pulling the nonresistant boy with her. "Just, no sex in the pool. My dad says it's no fun for the woman, which is odd, cause no one would ever think a man in his line of work would care about what his lover feels.'
"Yea, I can see how that might surprise some people." Sinjin gasped. The loss of air from falling in the pool was exacerbated by the proximity of the naked girl. "Um, why are we…?" he tried to form the right words.
"Because, I refuse to let anyone else be your first." She told him. With a strength he hadn't expected, less then Jade, but stronger then he could resist at that moment, she helped him out of the pool and over to the deck. "Now then, just tell me, what should our safe word be?"
"Safe word." Sijnin was beyond freaked out.
"You really don't sound willing." She sighed. "Look, I'm not trying to rape you. I just, I need this, to be your first. Mine was a disaster, going with him because I thought that's what you're supposed to do. But my heart wasn't with the star football player." She hesitated. "That would be soccer to you Americans. God, you're so backwards. You play your game carrying the ball. Hardly any use of the feet."
"Yea." Sinjin said, only because he felt he had to say something.
"So, can I touch it?" She pushed.
"Yea…" He again stammered, not totally aware of what he was saying.
"Just remember." She purred into his ear, her accent making it all feel that much more exotic. Her hand had pulled his shorts down to expose his manhood. "If you need to stop, just say…" Her hand touched him, and he exploded. "Butternut!" She swore.
"Sorrysorrysorrysorry." He babbled, even as he scampered to the pool, hoping the salty water would wash away his shame.
"It's okay." She growled. "My mistake, my fault. I didn't take into account how new you were to all of this." She rolled stood, walking to the pool and dunking her hand, washing the goo off of her. "Now, watch, and when your ready, come join me. Don't worry if you're not sure what we're doing. I'll do the heavy lifting."
"–" He didn't say anything., because somewhere inside, he worried about how many lovers she'd had, and didn't want to be judgmental to the person who was so obviously in control at that moment.
"Hollywood Arts has taught me to do my research." Gabriella told him. "You'd be my second, and hopefully, more satisfying then the minute and a half of shame I endured with my first."
With that, she pulled a padded seat off a deck chair, and lay back, making eye contact with her date. Then, she started to touch herself, bringing herself closer and closer over the next several minutes.
By the time Gabby was getting close, she was also getting frustrated. Sinjin had been sitting in the pool, watching, the entire time, and hadn't made a single move to get out and join her. Sexual frustrations shorted her temper, and holding back a scream, she rolled to her knees and crawled towards him.
She stopped and stood up as soon as the cement started to hurt her knees. Kneeling by the pool, she reached down and pulled him upwards. "Come, it's time to cum." She told her date.
Sinjin was laid back on the same cushion she'd been laying on just moments before, his face towards the blunted sky. Gabriella straddled him, measuring his erection, before easing herself down on him. "Now, relax, and try to enjoy this." She breathed out, even as he moaned.
Sinjin let her drive, guiding his hands to the right places, riding him, making the whole experience better for her. Her soft moans mixed with his grunts and moans, as they found the joy of their coupling together. After far to short a time, but more then enough thanks to her preparations, he climaxed again. Only Gabby was close, able to tip over the edge and enjoy the same release as her lover. Then she let the moment take them, and lay on top of the nerdy boy. "Just like that, my world is complete." She purred.
"Um…." He tried, but his mind was far to scrambled to make words.
"So, lets review, shall we?" She said, taking advantage. The girl would then go over everything that worked, and everything that didn't, through their lovemaking. She took her time, making sure the nerd understood her sensitive points, as well as what worked, and what didn't. "So, you ready to swim?"
"Do girls always critique their boys?" He wondered.
"No, usually they just cuddle." She informed him. "I got my cuddle on, I really did, but if I'm driving, then I wanna make sure you learn right. Too many boys just don't care."
"No complaints about the lesson." He said. "Really, they don't cover this is sex ed. Kinda wish they did." He reached for his trunks.
"No, lets stay naked." Gabby suggested. "I'm thinking you'll be ready for another round soon, and we don't wanna make it too hard to enjoy ourselves."
Deep as he was, Sinjin still had his reservations. Still, he couldn't think of a good reason not to, so he swam naked, next to her, and found the warm water inviting. Soon, they shifted to the Jacuzzi for a little bubbly fun, and decided to try again.
"Remember, my mom said that the water acts as an irritant, so we do it out of the tub." The Spanish girl instructed.
The second round involved doggy style, with Sinjin doing most of the work, while still listening to Gabby's instructions on where to place his hands, and how quick a rhythm to set. Afterwords, they both sank into the tub to relax their muscles and talk. "Okay, a couple of things." She started.
"It's more work then you'd think." He observed.
"I didn't fuck you to make you my boyfriend." She told him. "Sex was just something I thought we were ready for." Her hand caressed his face, only to shift, grabbing him by the throat. "However, if you even try to break up with me before two weeks has passes, I will rip your heart out and feed it to the birds. Clear?" He nodded desperately, hoping she'd let go, as he had no hope of surviving if she tried to hold his head under water. "After, when it's not get some, get gone, then it'd be okay." Her smile returned. "However, I'm not really sure you understand what kind of girl is good for you. Take Jade. She'd rip your balls off, just because, and I kinda need them." That sweet smile again. "At least for the next couple of weeks." Eyelash flutter. "Second, sex is now a part of our relationship. Not saying we're gonna do it that often, cause I'm not a nympho. Just, it may or may not happen. So, we're about done here, so why don't we get out, get dressed, and if you're up to it, a movie?"
"My parents are probably missing me." He stammered out.
Gabriella laughed. "Singe, you can go. I just, after fucking you, I felt bad abut asking you to leave, even if it was just to go home." She pulled herself from the pool. "Lets get dressed, and I'll see you off."
"I thought you'd already…" He stammered. Only, seconds later, he realized how much fun English could really be.
He stopped and kissed her on the way out. "You have time to drop by tomorrow?" he asked her.
"For a date, sure." She sighed. "Sex, from now on, I kinda wanna make it only happen when it feels right."
"Just a date." He promised. "I'm thinking I wanna reevaluate my stance on you. I mean, yea, you're clingy as chiz, but I think you're just a strong girl raised in a world where you weren't expected to be strong, just supportive. So," He shifted, nervous again, even if he didn't know why, "I guess I'm saying, lets spend the next two weeks trying, really trying, to get to know who the real us is, and see if we work."
"Afraid I'll hurt you if we don't?" Gabriella asked.
"Afraid of Jade, and yet, I so wanted her." The nerdy boy admitted. "I'm thinking, as bad as it may seem, I need someone who is willing to push past my limits to want me. Not saying what we have here is healthy, just it's not unhealthy. So yea, lets give it two weeks, I can avoid a drowning death in some random puddle, and we can really see if this thing between us is destiny, or I just gave in to the first, and possibly only girl in high school, who wanted to sleep with me."
"Deal." She shook his hand. "Just, one more thing, and it's mucho importante… Only stalk girls when Sikowitz makes it a part of your assignment." her hand tightened, enough to remind the boy how dangerous his delicate flower really was. "As long as we're dating, I expect you to treat me like the lady I am. That includes respect. Got it?"
"I got it." He managed not to squeal from the crushing pressure on his hands. "God, you could have…"
"Not strong enough to break your hand." She promised, even as she leaned in to give him a quick peck on the lips. "Jade, she is, but not me. Just… Did you know Jades dating Tori?"
