Triple Trouble

Alani & JJ

So after the fire died down you all went inside. Ward called Rafe saying that he needed Rafe to go back home. It's just you and the pogues now. School starts in a week and you've got limited time to hang out with the gang.

Pope and Kie are the first ones to go to bed.

"Night guys!" They both say walking to the bedrooms.

"Night!" You say,

JJ mumbles something but you can't understand it. JB is on his phone. Probably texting with Sarah. Sarah left awhile ago to go hang out with Wheezie a little bit. JJ is fumbling with his fingers, he looks anxious.

"I think I'm gonna head to bed guys, goodnight!" You say walking to your room.

You get into your room and change into your pjs. You like the full sets of pjs (matching tanks and shorts). These ones are red silk, your favorite pair.

You go to your bathroom to wash your face. You hear the door open so you rinse your face off quickly. You dry your face with a towel and go back into your room. You see JJ looking at a picture of you and Rafe on your nightstand.

"Oh, hey JJ." You say, yawning right after,

"Oh hey Alli.." JJ says putting the frame back down onto the nightstand.

You sit on your bed and watch him. He turns around facing you sits next you.

"JJ what's wrong?" You look at him,

"I don't like you with Rafe. He murdered Peterkin, he doesn't deserve you. He's not a good guy." JJ says looking into your eyes.

You can see his hurt and that he's worried. But for some reason you don't care about that. Not right now.

Rafe is my boyfriend and he's not a bad guy. I mean yea, he has his past. But you can't judge someone like that based on their past.

"JJ I know your worried, but he's not like that anymore. He's good to me." You say looking down into your lap,

"Oh you mean by fucking you?" JJ scoffs,

"JJ why are you so worried about what me and Rafe do?! It's none of your business!" You say standing up and looking at him.

"Because I love you!" He shouts,

Your shocked by this. You know that JJ is Rafes best friend and it would be a break of trust if JJ did that to him.

"JJ.." you say walking away from him,

"I know. I know I'm not supposed to because your his girlfriend." He looks at you and starts walking towards you.

"But I can't just pretend my feelings for you aren't there." He pushes up against you.

Butterflies. Everywhere.

"JJ, I-" you stammer

"Cupcake, I know." JJ puts his hand level with the top of your head.

You look at him, pleading that he doesn't do what you think he's gonna do.

He kisses you. Passionately.

You know it's wrong but you kiss him back.

You push away from the wall and continue kissing him. You hear noises outside of the room so you pull away. JJs eyes open slowly.

"JJ I can't-" you look towards the ground,

"I know Alani, but I can't stand seeing you with him. It just makes me so pissed off that he met you first." JJ walks away from you.

You try and grab his hand but he snatches it away from you.

"JJ please!" You walk towards him,

"No Alani.. I can't do this." JJ walks out of the room and closes the door behind him.

You sigh. You know Rafe would be furious if he ever found about that kiss. You decide to just turn off your lights and crawl in bed.

A couple hours later..

You hear your door creak open. You awake from the dream you were having and turn on your bedside light.

"Hey Alani," JJ says standing by the closed door,

He's wearing his blue plaid pajama pants and no shirt. God, his abs..

"Hey JJ, what up?" You say falling back onto your pillow.

"I'm sorry about earlier. I shouldn't have done that. I just needed-"

You interrupt him,

"JJ it's fine. As long as Rafe doesn't hear about it, our lives will be the same. Nothing happened." You say,

"But that's not it. Our lives won't be the same because I fucking kissed you!" He yells,

"JJ! Be quiet!" You snap,

"Sorry.." JJ scratches his head.

Damn it JJ. Why do you have to be so hot, it's making this harder.

You pull the covers off of you and sit up. JJ looks over at you and stares.

"Wow, Alli," he stutters

You laugh.

"JJ your good," you pat the bed next to you for him to come sit next to you. You know it's probably a bad idea but what the hell. He's all sorts of mixed up right now. You can't just avoid him.

Once he sits down, you hug him.

"JJ it's okay," you whisper

"It's not, Rafe will kill me.." he pulls his head off of your shoulder and looks at you.

"Rafe won't find out, only you and I know about the kiss! It's fine!" You say hoping he believes you.

It's silent for a moment, you try not to look at JJ.

"JB saw me come out of here earlier.." JJ says looking at you,

"Doesn't mean he knows that you kissed me! And if he does, he's not going to tell Rafe!" You say trying to convince him that it'll be alright.

"Can- can I sleep in here tonight Alli?" JJ says,

"JJ.." you say

"I'm not going to do anything, I promise." He stares at you,

"You know that if anybody cat-"

He interrupts me,

"I'll be out of here before anyone wakes up," he says

You sigh and shake your head.

"Just this once JJ.." you say standing up to get back into bed.

JJ goes to the other side and slides in next to you. You turn on your side and reach for your light.

"Goodnight JJ," you say before turning off the light.

"Goodnight Alli." JJ says

You snuggle back down into bed and feel a hand slide around you waist.

You let the touch of his hand guide you to sleep.
