The Mall

Daia

I couldn't believe it when Jez sounded so eagar to go shopping for a swimsuit. Damn, I thought, we should have gotten her hooked up with David a long time ago.

June and Jake were talking about doing some more shopping, then Richard asked me if I wanted to go for a ride. I grinned.

"Now I know I've lost my mind," I said. "When I'd give up shopping to go ride around with a boy!" I giggled.
 
June

I stood up and took Jake's hand.
"Well, if everyone has plans I can go looking at anything you want and then we can take that ride."

Pulling him to his feet, I waved at Jez and Daia. "I'll call and we'll three way to talk about our shopping trip tomorrow."
 
Jacob

i looked at June, we walked away, i pulled her to me and kissed her again, i wanted to kiss her passionately like that for a long time, and i didn't want to around them. "So, we gonna go cruzen or shopen?" i asked her.
 
June

I opened my mouth so that he could kiss me deep and our tongues touched. I loved to kiss and kissing Jake was as good as it got.

After the kiss I looked up at him and shrugged,"Up to you, Handsome. I love to shop but being with you just might top that."
 
Jacob

"well...how about we do some cruzin" i said and took her hand again as we walked tword the doors. We got to my car, and i opened the door for her, and rushed around, i turned the music down before i started my truck, so the subs wouldn't kick in. "You got any cd you want to listen to?" i asked handing her my case as i started up my truck.
 
June

I fastened my seatbelt and took the CDs he handed me. Picking one without really looking at it I handed it back. I was much more interested in who I was with than what I was listening to.

Turning partly in my seat I smiled at Jake,"So, where to, Handsome?"
 
I couldn't believe Jez was actually willing to to the whole hot tub thing! An hour ago she would have been horrified at the thought. Like i said, the power of peer pressure! She gave me a sexy look when no one was watching and i thanked God for giving me this wonderful woman!

Back to the present moment in time and everyone seemed to be going their separate ways. June and Jake went off to go cruisin in his car, and Rich and Daia seemed pretty wrapped up in each other. So i turned to Jez and said "So my queen, what do you want to for the rest of the afternoon?"
 
Jacob

I looked at her after taking the CD, "so you like Linkin Park eh?" i put it in, and fastined my Seat Belt, "well you can control how loud it is" i said hitting play and starting to drive out of the parking lot.
 
Jezbel

I felt myself color a bit when he called me his Queen. I had never had anyone treat me like this before. When he asked me where I wanted to go I almost said,"Anywhere but home." I was having so much fun and I was loosing my shyness with this great guy that I didnt want to go back to the bickering and fighting of my parents.

I shrugged and said,"I'm done shopping. Til tomorrow, that is." A smile came on my face again as I thought about what I was going to go shopping for,"What were you going to do before we bumped into each other?"
 
June

I ususally like my music pretty loud-in fact my parents go ape when I play it at home. I had to buy headphones just to keep them from bitching so much. But right now I wanted Jake's attention on me and no one else so I turned the volume down so he could hear me.

I scooted over as close to Jake as the seatbelt would allow me and I ran a finger down his neck and watched him shiver. "I love being in control," I said softly in his ear,"But not too much." I giggled as I watched what effect my words had on his face.
 
I shrugged and rubbed my chin, "Well not much actually come to think about it. We were just going to hang out and see what happened." Faking an accent i said "Until my two so called friends ditched me for some brazen hussies!"
I smiled and wondered what to do.

"Well i don't really mind actually. I mean i'd love to get to know you a little better. Well i guess we could always hang out here, or if you're not in the mood we could head back to my house. My parents are both away on a business trip tonight so we could just watch a movie or something."

Then i realised how suggestive that sounded, and mentally kicked myself for it. After all, she was still a shy girl really and asking her to go to my place may have been going a bit too far! Hope i hadn't blown it.
 
Jezbel

I swallowed hard. He had just asked me to go to his house with his parents gone. I thousand reasons why I shouldnt whirled through my head and I almost said no and then I looked over at Daia and Rick going at it hot and heavy.

The thought that I could always ask him to my house crossed my mind but then I squashed it. That would definately be the death knell to this relationship.

Looking back at Dave, I thought I saw doubt in his eyes like he almost regretted asking me and I found myself speaking up before I could stop and think,"Movies sound like a good idea. I like Comedy and Horror, how about you?"
 
"Nothing like a good comedy, but i'm also a bit of an action movie aficionado."

"Well i guess we'd better go for a ride and pick up a movie then! How about that?" I gave Rich a goodbye slap on the back, to which he grunted a reply still playing toungue tennis with Daia.
Taking Jez's hand i led her to my car and opened the door for her. My car's not great, but it does the job. I installed a decent stereo so no one really complains.

As we were driving along i asked her, "Tell me some more about yourself?"
 
Jezbel

I settled my packages in the car and fastened myself in. Then Dave asked me to tell him more about myself. "Danger, Danger!," My mind blared. The last thing I wanted for this great guy to know is about my home life. That would drive him off faster than a swarm of mosquitoes.

"Oh not much to tell," I said hurriedly as I picked up some of his CDs. "How about some music?," I asked quickly changing the subject.
 
I could tell she was pretty reticent about herself. There must be something that she doesn't really want to talk about, so i just left it and let her dictate the pace.

"Why don't you pick the cd?" i said, "i listen to just about everything so i'm sure there's something you like".
As she put the cd in i pulled into the car park near the video store.

Walking in i said to her, "Well, since you're the girl you get to pick the video. Make sure it's not too cheesy though i don't feel like throwing up tonight!"
 
Jezbel

I breathed a sigh of relief as he backed off the question. I couldnt believe I found someone who was so intuned to how I was feeling. It was great.

As we walked into the video store, I managed to get up enough nerve to slide my hand into his. It felt so right there as his hand closed over mine.

Looking at the rows of tapes I giggled at his comment. "Dont worry," I said with a wink,"A movie that has something being blown up, hacked up or run off the road, coming up."

I searched out one of the most popular action/adventure movies and handed it to him. "There," I laughed,"That should have enough violence to last a whole evening."
 
Damn, i think i've seen this movie about six times now. Oh well better bite the bullet as they say and keep my mouth shut.
"Yeah i don't think i've seen that one" i said, lying through my teeth. "Why don't you pick up a comedy as well?"

We walked around looking for comedy videos. I was cracking my usual jokes and she actually found them pretty funny. Normally my kind of humour is a bit too sarcastic for the masses so i was glad she appreciated it! After she made the choice (thankfully one i hadn't seen) we jumped back in the car and headed on back to my place.
 
Jezbel

I held tight to the movies as he drove to his house. My palms were sweating and I couldnt believe what I was doing. I was going to be alone with a boy, in his house, no parents whatsoever. I didnt know whether to feel nervous or bold and daring.

It seemed like just a little while before we were pulling up in his driveway and he was helping me out of the car. As we entered the house I looked around. It was nice and comfortable. Had kind of a cozy feeling about it-or maybe I was feeling that way due to the company.

Handing over the movies I said,"Do you have any popcorn? You know, the microwave kind? A movie isnt a movie without popcorn."
 
"Of course i have popcorn, but why don't i show you around the house first?" With that i took her hand and went on an extensive tour of the house. I showed her my garden with a mini soccer goal, she'd already seen the ring in the driveway so no need for that, so i took her upstairs and showed her my room. It was a bit of a mess as usual, but i sat down on the bed and took out a photo album from under the bed to show her. It was my own pride a joy, a photo collection of my life, from when i was a little baby, the first basketball and soccer teams i played in, and pictures of me with medals and trophies that i had managed to win over the years.
 
Richard:

"Well i didnt bring my car,so we get to go on my bike," i said to Daia...

I sat on his bed and looked at his photo album. Boy, this felt weird. In a guy's room and sitting on his bed with him. June and Daia would never believe this even if I handed them pictures.

Speaking of pictures, I had spaced off while Dave had been pointing to pictures and talking to me. I edged a bit nearer to him so I could see the pictures better.

I laughed. He was right-his parents werent very good at photography but you could tell all the pictures had been taken by proud parents. As I was looking at the book, I didnt notice that I had scooted right next to him. I was so close that our hips touched.

My head was bent over the photo book and my finger picked out a few of the better ones. "You know, Dave," I said, without looking up,"Some of these would make great sketches. That is if you dont mind me borrowing them for awhile."

He didnt answer and I turned my head to look at him. Thats when I realized how close we were. When I turned my head I was staring straight at him-our faces only inches apart.
 
As she started to examine the photos she started to move closer to me, until finally our legs were touching. I had the photo book in my lap, and as she pointed out pictures to me i became lost in my moment of contentment again. Suddenly she turned to me and asked me if she could take some of the photos for sketches, but i was lost in the moment as i realised that we were so close. I looked into her eyes and murmered "sure, if you want" quietly, before leaning in, putting my hand on her cheek, and kissing her softly.
 
Jezbel

I heard him answer but at that moment I had forgotten the question. His lips were on mine and I could feel mine parting as we kissed. Wow! Was the only word I could think of about that time as I became lost in just being with him.

And when our mouths parted I told him as much,"Wow," I said softly and then a bit puzzled,"Sure I can what?"

"Oh, oh yeah, the pictures," I said as I kept staring back at him. I couldnt take my eyes off of his face,"Thanks, I promise to..to bring them back..." Oh,hell! I gave up and leaned in for another kiss, my arms coming up and around his neck to pull him close.
 
She carried on mumuring about the photos but we were both too caught up in the moment to care. Suddenly she put both her arms around my neck and kissed me hard, causing us both to fall back onto my bed as i wrapped my arms around her. With me on the bed and her lying on top of me we continued to kiss, the passion of the moment carrying both of us along with it.
But as this carried on i thought to myself that in a way it wasn't right. I disengaged my mouth from hers, and sat up, turning to face her.

"Jez, i really like you and you're really sweet. But i can tell that there's a few things that you're holding back from me. I just want you to know that i'm not going to pressure you into anything, after all this is our first kiss a couple of hours after we first spoke! Anything that happens between us will only be if you want it to happen, ok? I'm not in this for some fooling around, or for just playing. I'm in this for real."
 
Jezbel

I blushed so hard I thought my face was on fire. What was I doing? I had been more forward than I ever had in my entire life and I couldnt believe it was me doing it.

My breath was a little rapid and I stared down at the cover on his bed before answering. It took some time to compose myself but he seemed willing to wait. Sitting cross-legged on his bed, I tucked my long hair behind my ears (another nervous habit. I had alot). For some reason I wanted to talk to him and tell him all about me but I was so afraid that he would turn away from me after I did.

"Oh, well," I thought,"If he hasnt run for the hills yet there may still be hope."

Shaking my head I began,"I appreciate that, David. I really do. It's not so much that I'm holding back anything it just that....well, I dont exactly have the perfect home life."

"My parents got divorced almost four years ago and, since then, they have spent every spare moment arguing and yelling at each other about every little thing. And when I'm home I get pulled into the whole mess."

Looking down at the photo album that had fallen on the floor, I said,"I dont have parents to take pictures of me or be there if I was to ever get an award. You dont know how lucky you are. Mine are too wrapped up in hating each other to even notice if I'm around-unless they need me to take a side on something or other."

"I hate going home but I dont have any place else but the mall to go to, really. That is until this year when I met June and Daia. Now I usually hang around with them either shopping or at their house."

"When I am at my house I usually lock myself in my room and draw. It's my escape-my outlit. The reason I dont go and make freinds with people right away, is because I hate telling anyone about my life. With the exception of June and Daia, I have never told anyone else til now."

The words had come out in a rush and I could feel tears building up in my eyes but I refused to let them fall. I just sat there on his bed and waited to see if he would ask me to leave now.
