“I have a feeling that she may get you later. But, to answer your questions..yes. I'll help you first though."
Jessica laughed a little, her smile growing more natural knowing that Darrin wasn’t being as awkward as he had been earlier that day. She walked over; sitting in the spot he motioned her to, pulling her long brown hair up into a bun. When he had asked her where she’s been all week, Jessica relaxed before smiling, leaning back on him a little as she began to answer him.
“Well, the school was on-” "Are you Darrin Reed?"
Jessica turned her attention over towards the group of kids asking him. The next thing she knew, Jess nodded and he excused himself to go over towards the group- now, she was watching girls in those tiny pieces of clothes hang around a little longer. A hot feeling sweltered in her stomach; watching the pretty young girls try and flirt with Darrin was very aggravating for Jessica. Was she jealous?
At that thought, Jess shook her head a little; she couldn’t be jealous- she had no right. He wasn’t her boyfriend, husband, or even brother; only a friend. If anything, shouldn’t Jess be happy that he was actually getting out there? This caused her brows to furrow as she began to think a little about these feelings; she definitely hadn’t felt anything at all when they kissed, yet, she felt so conflicted inside about watching him talk to girls- no, not even girls, his fans.
Oh god, she wasn’t even classifying the young girls as girls- she was indeed jealous. To prevent her aggravation to cease, Jessica quickly turned her head downwards, staring at the concrete below her feet until she heard him apologize, making Jessica turn her head up quickly.
“Ah, no need to apologize.” She smiled, holding her hands up. “I knew this would happen; I just hope you aren’t too bothered.” She only nodded when he had asked her to do his back. Jessica smiled slightly wider when he had taking off his shirt; she had saw that he had gained weight since the last time she saw him.
Jessica squeezed some sunscreen out on her hands and slapped them to Darrin’s back, causing the lotion to splatter across his back and drip down it, landing on the chair and ground. “You’ve gained weight!” She proclaimed happily. “It makes me happy that you are getting better.” Her voice was only above a whisper as she started from his shoulders, rubbing in the liquidly lotion.
She was quiet for a little longer, before she began to bite her lip, her hands making their way down his back. “Anyways, the school building is under renovations, so they moved out all of the students to trailers outside. I just had to set everything up in the trailers.” She continued her interrupted answer to his question from earlier. Her hands got to the middle of his back before Jessica pulled away, pouring more lotion on her hands.
“I didn’t mean to make it awkward for you; I mean, like not even calling or anything.” She was hinting to after the kiss. Her hands slowed as they reached the bottom of his back. She chewed on her lip a little more before stopping, backing up so he could turn to face her. “Alright, all done!” She smiled, rubbing whatever was left on her hands onto his chest, looking at him in a playful way.
“Daddy!” Nichola’s voice brought Jess’ attention over. “Come in!” She yelled, her face red from laughing and playing before Taylor was thrown by Anna, followed by Ian.
