Kiss and Tell

Reese POV-

The smell of pancakes and bacon fill the room waking me from my dreamless sleep. I look around and notice I'm in a room I've never been in. The sound of soft piano music flutters through the air from the door on the left. I open the door and head down the stairs into a living room I've only seen once. All of this seems familiar but not enough to remember where I was. A soft voice echoes throughout the house making everything vibrate and blur.

'Reese....Reese wake up.' A icy soft hand rests on my shoulder and rocks me back and forth. I groan as I break the surface of sleep opening my eyes to two bright beautiful green eyes. I look around the room and notice that it is still nighttime. Running a hand down my face I sit up stretching.

'What time is it ?' I rub my eyes and look at the shadowy figure before me. I examine the silhouette and realize I'm not in my house. That's right mom left...what's her name again?

'It's 12...' The voice gets soft as it answers my question. Still extremely exhausted I roll out of bed and walk over to the light switch by the door. I flick on the light and turn around.

'Look princess it's not ok to just wa-' I look the girl up and down suddenly remembering her name. I look at the slender chest of the girl before me noticing the shirt she is wearing looks really tight and form fitting. My stomach turns and my hands itch to pull her closer.

God damn... My heart pounds hard and my thoughts focus on her body. Her slim figure exposed through her tight tank too. I want really bad...My eyes travel further down to her waist where she gets thicker. The curves clearly shown through her pajamas. Focus !!!

'What do you need?' My voice comes out bitter and low. I glare down the beautiful girl before me. I fold my arms and lean against the wall trying to look pissed off. Which is really weird I mean why do I have to play the bad boy around this one.

She bites her lip and looks down making me want to hold her. I notice the makeup smeared from her eyes down her cheeks. I stare a little longer than I should have and when I finally notice she is stepping towards me. I try to step back but bump into the wall instead. She looks up at me with her big puffy green eyes. I see the tears well up inside and before I could ask one escapes her eye.

'Um... Hey you ok? ' I place a hand on her shoulder trying my best to comfort her without seeming like a nerd. I can't help but want to hold her and make her stop crying. I had to make this stop... I need to stop catching these frelings for a girl I didn't know .

A.J's POV-

My tears stream down from my eyes leaving warm trails down my cheeks. My breathing gets heavy making it hard not to gasp every few seconds for air. My body aches bad and I lose feeling in my legs. I drop to the floor in a violent sob. My emotions flood out of me and become uncontrollable. Carter kneels down and wraps him warm arms around me pulling me into his chest.

'It's ok...' He whispers softly in my ear comforting me. Without thinking I grab handfuls of his shirt and cry. We sit on the floor for what feels like hours and I still haven't stopped crying.

He slides his hand under my chin and lifts it so I'm looking up to him. I felt the blood rush to my cheeks and my heart pound harder. He smiles down to me before he closes his eyes and pressed his lips to mine. I push him back but he doesn't move. I didn't want this but I didn't want to stop this isn't why I was here.

My heart drops and I bite his lip hard enough to draw blood. He pushes me back quickly and stares at me from where he sat. My face gets red and I instantly regret what I just did. The look on his face is different than I expected it to be. Instead of anger it looked more like.... Sadness. I reach out to Carter and he slaps my hand away getting up and pointing to the door.

'Get out ...' I look up at him and open my mouth to speak. Unable to find the words for about 2 minutes I get up and walk out the door to my room. I look back to catch Carter touching his lip and staring at his fingertips.

'Goodnight...' I manage to say without that many sniffles in my voice. He looks up and glares at me making me turn around. I open the door to my room but before I could walk in I hear Carter call my name.

'Hey...are you ok ?' I look back and see him leaning against the doorframe with a concerned look on his face. He cares enough to ask. I cant believe that a bad boy like him cares about me. My heart pounds hard again and I'm sure he can hear it this time. I nod my head before smiling softly at him. He smiles back and winks at me before closing his door. I touch my lips softly and smile sliding slowly down my door.

Carter opens his door and stares at me. I realize I'm still touching my lips and smiling like a fool. The tears that I fell before forgotten for the moment being. I stand up quickly and rush into my room.

'Good night princess' were the last words said between the two of us before the door closed. Standing in the dark by myself I realize that I just had my first real kiss.
