She didn’t expect it to go that way, but who was she to complain? The blonde teen was able to make him squirm, but all that aside, she had missed him. She didn’t know exactly if she loved Jareth still, or if she simply missed fucking with him, but one thing was for certain: he was going to be thinking about her, and that’s all she cared about. As she smiled proudly, Jade noticed the lovebirds. They were sitting down on the sand. Why they were, Jade had no earthly idea, but whatever. By the looks of the way they were wrapped in each other’s arms. Sierra’s back was to his chest, and Jay had a hold of her waist as if he had no care in the world. More to the point, Sierra seemed…[i]happy[/i]? No that couldn’t be right. She was never happy, not to this extent, at least. She was salty. Yes, she was Salty Sierra. What changed? Jade was going to find out. Seeing as how they didn’t notice her approach them, Jade quietly tiptoed behind Jay. In a matter of seconds, the blonde hovered over her Indian cousin, her blonde hair flowing naturally down over both Sierra and Jay’s head. “[color=e62020]Hey there,[/color]” Jade said simply, looking at both Jay and Sierra. Tonight, Sierra Jameson was acting in unrecognizable ways. If she were in her usual mood and looked at herself and Jay from the outside, she would surely gag. She despised those lovey-dovey type couples to the core, and couldn’t comprehend what was their pathological need to show so much affection in public. Surely they didn’t get enough love and attention as kids for having that need to be so explicit about their affection? It still didn’t justify the way they subjected everyone else to their overly-expressive torture, but her salty self eventually just learned to live with it. Hey, living with it didn’t mean she wouldn’t make some snarky comment about how they should stop sucking their faces off and get a room! But there was something about this night that made Sierra feel it was magical. Maybe it was the combination of weed and alcohol, or maybe it was just the overall feeling of the evening. The soft sound of the waves coming and going, the sea salt breeze cooling their, the way Jason’s arms were wrapped around her in such a loving and tender way, their bodies close enough to give warmth to each other, the way they kissed and laughed and kissed and smiled and kissed… It was as if their senses were unaware of the rest of the world and nothing else existed but each other. And Jason was just so damn fucking sweet. He treated her like she was a rare jewel that he couldn’t get enough of, and quite frankly, she couldn’t get enough of him either. In a surprising twist, she [i]really liked[/i] all this affection with him. If there had ever been a definition of a vanilla-type heaven in Sierra’s commonly dirty mind, it was definitely this. Si had been right in the middle of yet [i]another[/i] deep kiss with Jason (they were doing a lot of that tonight) when she heard a familiar voice addressing them. For a moment Sierra considered ignoring whoever was talking ([i]Didn’t they see the pair was obviously busy?[/i]), but decided against it in the end after thinking of the person staring at them as they kissed. Begrudgingly, Sierra pulled away from Jay’s honey-sugar-candy cane lips and looked up in the direction of the voice. Her droopy eyes lit up in recognition. [color=darkred]“Oh, it’s you! Hey Jade!”[/color] Sierra greeted, lazily waving a hand at her. [color=darkred]“You been enjoying the party so far?”[/color] “[color=e62020]I should be asking you that,[/color]” Jade said smiling. She took a seat to the right of Jay and Sierra, seeing that neither of them bothered to move their current position. Jade shrugged at that seeing as how they were just [i]so[/i] comfortable being interlocked in each other’s arms. “[color=e62020]Though, I suppose I am.[/color]” Jade thought about it. Perhaps yeah she was. [color=e62020]Get this! Tis and I fucked - well, skinny dipped, but you catch my drift.[/color]” Jade said. Jade let out a surprising laugh. Not surprising in the sense that she never laughed. Jade always laughed, but more like Jade was a bit surprised that she hooked up with, of all people, Tis. Well, weirder things have happened. Case and point? Jay and SIerra. Of all the times that Jade had been the receiver of Jay’s complaining on why he couldn’t find the courage to talk to Sierra made her really sad for him because she wanted him to do [i]something[/i], but fear always set in. Well, apparently that was no longer the case. Jade left him alone for only thirty minutes tops, and suddenly they’re a couple now? Yeah, that’s a little more weird than Jade and Tis hooking up. Sierra looked up at Jason, giving him a smile before looking back at Jade. [color=darkred]“Yeah, you can say that.”[/color] she replied with a small laugh in response to Jade’s comment about asking her if she’d been having fun. The truth of the matter was that yes, Sierra had been having a great time being all vanilla with Jay, as bizarre as that might look and sound to everyone kno knew her. At Jade’s confession about getting it on with Tis, Sierra’s red-rimmed eyes widened. [color=darkred]“You’re shitting me?! You got frisky with [i]Atlantis Strang[/i]?! Dude, we made fun of how she can’t speak like a normal person all the time. How the fuck did that happen?”[/color] “[color=e62020]Turns out when that surfer babe gets a good buzz going on, she talks like you and I do. And, well usually, when someone gets frisky, it involves some touching, but of course, I don’t need to tell you that, now do I?[/color]” As per usual, Jade winked at Sierra. “[color=e62020]On a completely different note,[/color]” Jade let the topic not-so-subtly change, “[color=e62020]I think Jar still has the hots for me.[/color]” Jade said nonchalantly as she stared at the water, watching the waves push against the shore a few times. Ah, [i]Jareth[/i]. At the mention of his name, Sierra visibly cringed, her mood dampened a little. The painful memories of his rejection and seeing them together afterwards all came back, flooding her brain. She hadn’t told Jade about her little fling with Jar, so there was no way she could know about how she was feeling at the moment. Well, in all honesty no one except the two of them -Jar and Sierra- and Rhett (because, duh, he’s her best friend and she tells him everything) knew about it. But Sierra would be damned if she allowed this night to go to waste over the mention of someone who had hurt her. Best try and change the subject before it could even fully start. [color=darkred]“Ugh, can we please not talk about him?”[/color] Sierra told Jade, imitating her nonchalant tone. “[color=e62020]Eh, fine, it’s your call.[/color]“ Jade shrugged, “[color=e62020]just figured you would like to know that, even after all the weeks that had passed, I still got him under my spell.[/color]” Jade said with pride, as if she’s happy with how Jareth may or may not be still into her. She was confident that he was, but she would have to play with that specific toy a little more to be certain of that. In the meantime, Jade was growing bored of this party. “[color=e62020]In either case, this party is starting to die down after that little scruff between [i]The Bromance[/i].[/color]” Jade noted, talking about the fight between JAckson and Rhett. Speaking of that, Jade hadn’t seen JAckson around since then. She lost sight of him when she was speaking with Jareth, so he could be god-knows-where. “[color=e62020]So, either of you seen Jackson?[/color]” she asked. “[color=springgreen]]Not me, no. At least, not since he was following some dark-haired girl.[/color]” Jay recalled, but that was several minutes ago. “[color=e62020]Dark haired woman?[/color]” Jade had a bad feeling about that. “[color=e62020]Fuck, so that means—[/color]” Jade knew exactly what that meant. Jackson had gone after Eve. “[color=e62020]Well, I guess there goes my ride. And he has the fucking keys. That asshole.[/color]” Jade said annoyingly. “[color=e62020]I guess that means we’re carpooling with Sierra here.[/color]” Jade said, shrugging. It was what it was. There wasn’t no use complaining about the situation. All she could do was accept it, and hang with these two until they were done sucking face. “[color=springgreen]So should we go right now?[/color]” Jay asked, looking at Sierra and Jade. “[color=e62020]That’s up to your [i]girlfriend[/i].[/color]” “[color=springgreen]She’s not--I mean, we’re not--[/color]” “[color=e62020][i]Right[/i], I get it. You don’t like labels. Just enjoy it for what it is.[/color]” Jade laughed, winking at the now red-as-a-tomato Jay. In her current state, Sierra was only half-listening to Jade, so the mention of The Bromance didn’t have any effect on her whatsoever. The teasing exchange between them also went unnoticed by her, up until Jade made the comment of the cousins carpooling home with her and Jay asked if they should go. [color=darkred]“Sure, you guys can ride with me. But on one condition,”[/color] she said, her eyes lighting up with a playful twinkle in Jade’s direction. [color=darkred]“[i]You[/i] drive yourself home while Jay and I ride in the backseat, then I drive him to his place.[/color] Sierra turned to Jay with a smile, and briefly kissed his lips. [color=darkred]“But do we really have to leave now? I wanna enjoy your company a little bit longer.”[/color] “[color=e62020]Are you talking to me or Jay?[/color]” Jade asked, giving Sierra a half-amused smile. Sierra snuggled further into Jay’s arms, looking for warmth, in response to a particular chilly breeze that had made her a little cold. [color=darkred]“Jay, of course.”[/color] “[color=e62020]Of course you are. It’s not like you stated a name or anything like that, because you were [i]totally[/i] specific.[/color]” Jade sarcastically chided Sierra. Sierra rolled her eyes good-naturedly at Jade. [color=darkred]“I was looking at Jason when I said that, so wasn’t that enough to know I was talking to him?”[/color] “[color=e62020]Do I look like I have eyes on the side of my head? How was I supposed to know you were looking at Jay?[/color]” [color=darkred]“Bitch, I didn’t even know you weren’t looking at me.”[/color] Jade shook her head. She realized that this was going nowhere. The more time she and Sierra went back and forth the less time she would be able to spend in her own bed. After a long night of fucking and having her fun with her Emo Toy, Jade was more than ready to go home, and sleep off the party in her bed. “[color=e62020]Whichever the case was, yes we should go. As much as I know Jay loves this, you don’t know how his father gets. Uncle Girisha is kind of a hard ass when it comes to Jay’s curfew.[/color]” “[color=springgreen]Oh, well about that..[/color]” “[color=e62020]What?[/color]” “[color=springgreen]Dad said I could stay out as late as I can. He even implied that, if something good were to happen, I shouldn’t come home until morning.[/color]” “[color=e62020]You’re shitting me.[/color]” Safe to say that Jade was a bit speechless right now. “[color=e62020]Uncle Girisha said this? Well, I guess I know where you’re spending the night at.[/color]” Jade said, her eyes directly at Sierra. Her head slightly jolted towards Jay multiple times, but she did it subtly so that Jay wouldn’t pick up on it. Sierra could relate to parents being hardasses. Back in the day her mother was like that, but when she realized Sierra had basically stopped caring she gave up. Sonya would still nag endlessly at her daughter after nights out like this one, but that was more of a way to let out her frustrations then out of genuine concern. Hell, Si was sure that if something ever happened to her it would be up to Shawn to help her out, because her mother would probably just stay at home being like ‘I told you so’. Bottom line: Sierra had an idea of what Jay was going through. What really made Sierra’s night was when Jason said that if something good happened he wouldn’t go home until morning. Him being with her counted as something good that happened, right? Her dirty mind was soon swimming with ideas of what they could do, even before Jade’s gestures, to which she replied with a knowing smirk. Yes, having Jason stay at her place would be the perfect end for this night. But the question was: would he be willing to accept the offer? Sierra turned her head in his direction again, her eyes full of anticipation. [color=darkred]“You’re more than welcome to stay at my place,”[/color] she told Jay. [color=darkred]“There’s plenty of room for you in my queen-sized bed.”[/color] As Jay pondered the offer, he wasn’t sure what to say to it. Or if he was going to say anything at all. He started to feel a bit heavy in his heart. He was feeling hot, and not in the way most would think he would. Maybe it was the idea that had entered his mind that he could not only get to be in Sierra’s house, but be in her bedroom? It was all a little much for him in all honesty. And Jade noticed that. “[color=e62020]Hey, don’t feel compelled to accept it. You two just started..whatever it is that you two are. There will be plenty of time for...[i]that[/i].[/color]” Jade said, putting a reassuring hand on Jay’s shoulder. She smiled at him. Rarely did Jade sound sincere, but Jay was like her little brother that she looked out for. So it was no surprise that she would try to look out for him the best that she knew how. If he was feeling pressured into accepting the offer that Sierra had presented to him simply because it was some dream of his coming true or something like that, then she would remind him that he didn’t have to accept. It wasn’t like there wouldn’t be other opportunities like this. “[color=springgreen]I’m, uh,[/color]” Jay took a deep breath, “[color=springgreen]I mean, would your folks even allow me to stay the night?[/color]” Jay asked Sierra as he looked at her. Sierra hesitated for a minute. The truth of the matter was that [i]no[/i], her folks would never allow a guy to spend the night in Sierra’s room. But lucky for her, this night wasn’t like the rest. [color=darkred]“Lucky for you, I don’t need to ask them. I have the house all to myself this weekend. Mom and stepdad are actually out of town. They called it ‘romantic getaway’ or something.”[/color] she said, shaking her head at the unwelcome thought of Shawn calling anything involving her mother romantic. Having also sensed his hesitation earlier, she quickly added, [color=darkred]“But I mean if you’d rather not stay and do something else instead I have no problem with that.”[/color] In normal circumstances Sierra would be furious at Jason even hesitating to take her offer (you all saw how raging she got when he rejected he was checking her out, so imagine how she would be if he declined this), but in her current state she just let things go with the flow. If he chose not to stay they could do something else. “[color=springgreen]It’s not that, I just..[/color]” Oh great, Jay was finally back to his stuttering, nervous self. “[color=springgreen]I mean, it’s not that I don’t want to because I [i]really[/i] do.[/color]” Jay was all over the place here. “[color=springgreen]Maybe I’m just--I don’t know...[/color]” Jay didn’t know what he wanted to do. He was more conflicted than ever. [color=darkred]“Tell you what. How does grabbing a bite at the nearby diner sound to you right now? Because I could use myself a huge late-night breakfast dish.”[/color] Yep, the munchies were all in full swing now, and Sierra was betting that she could eat not one, but a few of those breakfast dishes. Plus that would give Jay some time to make a decision. “[color=springgreen]That’s fine. I am getting kind of hungry.[/color]” Jay said. Now that he was thinking about it, he [i]was[/i] ignoring his grumbling stomach for the past five minutes. “[color=e62020]Me too![/color]” Jade chimed in, “[color=e62020]I think I remember seeing a Denny’s a little down the main road.[/color]” Jade recalled. Denny’s was the magic word. When the word reached Sierra’s ears, she immediately shoot up from her seat in front of Jason. [color=darkred]“Dude, YES! One of their American Grand Slams sounds amazing right about now. Let’s get going, then!”[/color] She took one of Jason’s hands, helped the guy up and dragged him along with her as they stumbled, swayed but eventually made it to her car: a [url=http://zombdrive.com/images/2005-jeep-liberty-11.jpg]2005 army-green Jeep Liberty[/url] that had belonged to her father, who had purchased it just a year before he died. She unlocked the doors, climbed into the jeep’s backseat and waited for Jade to take her seat at the front before handing her the keys and settling down with her head on Jason’s lap. [color=e62020]“Right, let’s see what this bad-boy can do!”[/color] Jade said rather excited. She turned the keys in the ignition, and the engine purred like a mountain lion. Jade waited until Jason and Sierra were strapped up(or whatever they called already kissing with their seatbelts on), and drove off into the not-so-sunset(since it was dark and shit). It didn’t matter. They were off in Sierra’s Jeep with Jade driving, her bag full of party favors in the passenger seat. Next stop? Denny’s!
