Blandview High Musical

8. Happy Birthday, Shayne Topp

"Do you like wild things, Javi?" Jade asked, bone white spearing the tanned flesh of his shoulder. He let out a muffled growl, pulling her onto his lap. "Wild? You should be locked up in a cage." He muttered. Dinner had been moved to Friday; so after leaving a mess in the kitchen downstairs, Jade and Javi ended up in bed together like usual.

Renee sighed as her heels clicked against the flooring. "She's not answering the phone." She said, looking to her husband who was on her right side. He placed a hand on her lower back. "Honey, I'm sure everything is fine. Let's just get home. Given the time, she's probably sleeping." He said, reassuringly. LAX was busy, like usual. "I really can't believe you paid for our car to sit here the entire time, Lawrence. I told you we should've taken a cab." Renee said, as they walked out of the airport and into the weighty night air. The nights in LA were getting cooler as fall was approaching. Lawrence unlocked the vehicle and walked to the trunk, pressing the lever to get it open. "I'll take that." He said, pulling the bag away from her to place it in the trunk. Renee opened the car door and got inside.

Lawrence followed her after slamming the trunk shut. "Trying her again?" He asked. "Yeah, still no answer. She better not have any boys over." She snapped. "Honey, she's eighteen." "It's still my house." Lawrence just sighed. "Let's just get home and we can decide how to handle the situation from there." He said, reaching over and patting her on the leg. He put the key in the ignition, turning it until the engine rumbled to life. He pulled out of the parking lot to cut through most of the airport traffic and take the long route home. "I think we should visit Maine next." "Honey, we just got home." Lawrence said. "That's the beauty of it, we're already packed. I just need a couple things and we could leave next week." Lawrence sighed. "I'd like to sleep in my own bed for a few days if that's alright with you." He said. "Of course." Renee said, offering him a smile.

"Who's car is that?" Renee asked as they pulled into the driveway. The black Mustang was parked on the street, but in front of their house. "Maybe it's one of her friends. What's that girl's name? Cathy, Carla—?" "Caylie." Renee corrected, getting out of the vehicle. She immediately headed for the front door, leaving the bags in the trunk. Lawrence followed her. She unlocked the door and opened it. The smell of steak and shrimp hung heavily in the house. Renee walked in first and Lawrence after; the two of them heading in starkly different directions. "See? She made dinner and went to bed." He said. "Nothing out of the..." he turned around to see Renee standing there holding an article of clothing...men's clothing. A white button down shirt with intricate line patterns on it. "...ordinary." He finished. Renee's heels fell against the hard wood floor, moving swiftly upstairs. "Renee! Renee!" Lawrence shouted, chasing after her.

Javi's fingers scored against her back, pulling her closer to his body. Her knees were flushed to the mattress as her hips rolled against his own. His face was nuzzled between her breasts as her fingers skated into his black locks. He was so fucking close. Right as she craned her neck back, the door came bursting open. Sharp gasps interrupted the bliss bathing moment as both of their heads snapped to the doorway. "Mom?!" She bayed. "What...are you doing?" It was clear Renee was trying to keep her composure. The words came out of Jade's mouth in stuttering declarations, she wasn't able to piece the words together in a correct manner. And of course, Javi was frozen out of fear. Lawrence was standing behind his wife. By this time, Javi had pushed Jade from his lap and she had tugged the sheet up over herself. "Who the hell are you?" She asked, the question was directed at Javier. He looked over at Jade. "I'm Ms. Tondre's mentor...we work together at the library." His face had turned an almost permanent shade of deep red. Jade placed her hands against her face. "Do all the mentors fuck their mentees?" She snapped. "N-No ma'am...it was just..." he trailed off. Renee tilted her head towards him. "Just what?" She asked. "It was just a spur of the moment thing, mom. Jesus Christ..." Jade said, reaching off the bed and grabbing her t-shirt. She pulled it on before beginning to hand Javi his clothing. "It couldn't have been that spontaneous! You made him fucking dinner!" Renee shouted. "Just leave it alone! My god, you act like it's a crime for me to fuck someone!"
