What the hell just happened?
Dazed,confused,frustrated. Just some of the many emotions running through his mind right now. A mind that was in turmoil after what has just happened. A scenario that has only happened in his dreams but this wasn't a dream. This was reality and the reality is he just made out with the beautiful young brunette currently using him as a pillow. This brunette that he would be lying if he didn't say he hadn't been thinking about her lately but who wouldn't? She is a goddess. A true goddess in the flesh. One that would come off sometimes with an attitude problem or just plain bossy at times but hey wasn't everyone entitled to be like that every now and then?
Did that really just happen? Did i really just makeout with Jackie. Jackie the devil. Wait....oh my god! Does that mean i've just joined the darkside of the force!?
Expecting to feel some kind of shiver from this revelation only to feel strangely at peace snapping out of this thoughts looking down as he finds her eyes firmly closed with a small smile across her face as her head rests against his shoulder leaning back gently Eric rests his head on the back of the couch not taking his eyes away from her face for a single second. A face that he can't help but smile down towards seeing the peaceful expression across her face. A smile that he quickly shakes away.
But she's the devil!? But what if she isn't? Oh my god! What if i'm Darth Vader and she's....
" What just happened?"
Instantly as fast as the words escape his mouth causing his eyes to go wide cursing himself mentally for being so stupid unknown to his knowledge a small smile starts to come across the young brunette's face. Feeling her lips curling up just from the confusion in his voice snuggling closer into his side until she feels his arm coming around to hold her comfortably against his chest letting out a sigh Jackie slightly tilts her head into his chest.
" Well it's pretty straight forward. I settled and you traded up. Simple as that."
Trying her best to keep her eyes closed feeling as though he was looking down towards her in annoyance cracking open her eyes as she finds her assumption to be correct letting out a huff rearing back Jackie smacks him gently in the chest as her facial features harden slightly.
" It's not a bad thing you idiot. All it means is i've found exactly what i've been searching for in a man and you have basically won the lottery getting the perfect girl. Don't think too much about it. Call it a win win and leave it at that."
Keeping her face neutral despite her lips wanting to break out into a grin from seeing how flabbergasted it is from the constant opening and closing of his mouth that she can't help but find amusing after a couple of seconds gently Jackie starts to play with his shirt causing his mouth to snap shut almost instantly.
" But,but,but...."
" But what?"
Seeing nothing but a speechless expression come across his face that she has seen on the faces of many way too many times letting out a sigh Jackie can't help but shake her head slightly as she watches him try to come up with some kind of response.
Why do all men have to be so stubborn!? Is a simple yes dear or yes sweetie so hard to ask for!?
Unable to take it anymore as a silent sigh escapes her lips reaching up gently Jackie presses her index finger to his lips causing his eyes to widen slightly by her sudden gesture.
" Eric, I know."
Seeing nothing but confusion in his eyes with a tint of fear behind them that she can see him desperately trying to cover up very slowly she returns her hand back down to his chest.
