As they exited the building, Jackson looked around before looking down at Ellie.”Where is everyone else at?”He asked curiously. She looked up at him as he spoke, her attention turning back to the crowded streets as she talked.”They’re waitin’ for us at the club. Everyone is there except for X. He really isn’t a social person.”Ellie explained, shrugging slightly. Jackson only nodded, looking around at the places as they passed. Within minutes, they were at the club. As they walked threw the doors, the music started to fill up his ears. He looked around, his attention turning to Ellie as she pulled on his hand, making him follow her to one of the tables. At the table sat three people sat Lola, a male, and female who appeared to be the same age. Jackson assumed they were Carter and Addison. As he looked them over, it was easy to guess that they were siblings, though he figured the girl was a bit older than the boy. He walked over to them, smiling as they introduced themselves.”I’m Carter. This is my sister Addison.”He told Jackson as he stood up, taking Jackson’s hand an shaking it.”Nice to meet you guys. I’m Jackson.”He said, nodding at Addison. She gave him a small smile, though she stayed silent.”Don’t worry about her. She’s just a wee bit shy whenever she meets new people.”Lola explained, giggling as Addison shot her a glare. Jackson could only chuckle. Back in Beacon Hills Jackson would only make friends with certain people, it seemed like it would be the same way here. The only difference is instead of jocks, it would be his pack.”Alright, did we come here to sit around and talk the whole time or did we come to have a good time?”Jackson heard Ellie say over the music. He watched as Lola and Carter stood up, but he noticed Addison didn’t budge. Jackson looked at her confused before he turned around to look at Ellie. She shook her head at Jackson, moving over to Addison.”Come on, I don’t care what you say. You’re comin’ out and dancing’ with us, that’s that!”Ellie told Addison as she grabbed her hand, pulling her up. Though the girl tried to refuse, it was obvious that Ellie was stronger. Addison looked like she was being tortured. It reminded Jackson of when he and Allison had went to the dance together. Though he didn’t want to, he danced with her so she wouldn’t have her feelings hurt. He knew that McCall would flip out if he had treated her like a complete piece of shit.”C’mon Jackson!”Lola said, grabbing his hand and Carter’s, pulling them both behind her. They all danced, though Addison was awkwardly standing there barely moving at all. Jackson wasn’t sure what was wrong with her, but he was very curios. Within minutes, two girls had come over and started dancing on Jackson and Carter. Jackson looked at Carter and grinned, punching his arm lightly. When Jackson looked over at Ellie, he smirked. The look on her face reminded him of jealousy. He raised an eyebrow, mouthing the words “jealous?”. Ellie shook her head, walking away into the crowded floor. Jackson looked down at the girl in front of him, fake smiling as actually saw what the girl looked like. He didn’t want to be rude, but damn, she was not the type of girl Jackson would get with. If any of the guys in Beacon Hills would have seen him, he would’ve gotten hell about it for a while. Lola walked up to Jackson, Addison and Carter by her side.“We‘re gonna take her home. Tell Ellie we’ll see her then.” Minutes later Ellie returned, a tall, muscular built guy behind her. Jackson clinched his jaw. When Ellie saw him, she smirked, raising an eyebrow.”Jealous?”She mouthed, mocking Jackson. Though he tried, he couldn’t shake the look from is face. He was actually feeling jealous. He looked away from Ellie so she couldn’t see his face. He could play this game. He placed his hands on the girls hips, running them up and down her sides. He leaned his head against the girls, looking over at Ellie. There was the look he had been wanting from her. Ellie pushed away from the guy she had been dancing with, making her way over to Jackson and the girl. She put her hands on her hips, looking at Jackson then the girl.”Ya know, if you’re goin’ to dance on someone, at least make it enjoyable for them. Like this.”Ellie grabbed the girl by her arm, pulling her off of Jackson. His eyes widened, a smirk spreading across his face as Ellie began dancing on him. He put his hands on her hips, feeling her movement, moving with her. Her hands ran up his arms, his chin rested in the crook of her neck. The girl stood in front of them, shocked by what she was seeing."You can get goin' now."Ellie told her, waving one of her hands to signal the girl off. After the girls disappeared into the crowd of people Ellie turned around to face Jackson, looking up at him."Just so you know, I only did that beca-"Before Ellie could finish her sentence Jackson placed his hands on her cheeks, leaning down and kissing her slowly on the lips. At first she didn't fight him, she gave in and kissed him back. The feeling he got when he kissed her was so much different than anything he had experienced before. After a moment he felt Ellie pull away, gasping lightly as looked up at him."Bloody hell, what do you think you're doin'?"She said, a bit of anger in her voice. Jackson shut his eyes, opening them as he locked eyes with her."You can't tell me you don't want me too, Ellie."He told her, raising an eyebrow as she shook her head."Oh you don't? Then tell me. Say 'Jackson, I don't want you.'"He told her, crossing his arms across chest. She took in a deep breath, letting it out slowly before she looked up at him."Jackson..I-I don't want you."She managed to get out. In mid sentence, Jackson heard her heart beat began to go faster."I know you're lying, Ellie. Give it up."He told her, trying to take her hand in his. She pulled it away, shaking her head."So what? We can't be together. Things are complicated, Jackson. If we were together, it could mess up everything in the pack. We can't be together."Jackson shrugged slightly as he listened to her talk."That doesn't mean anything. Life is very complicated if you haven't caught on to that yet. Maybe we don't have to date. There's a such thing as friends with benefits, you know?"Ellie rolled her eyes when she heard him."Friends with benefits?"She mocked, looking up at Jackson as he nodded. She thought about it for a minute, rubbing her forehead."I need to think. C'mon, let's get out of here."She said, motioning for him to follow her. The whole walk back to his flat was silence. Once they were in front of his door, she stood in front of him."No feelings. Only sex. And if either of us start to feel anything more than just friends, we stop. Deal?"Ellie asked, biting her lip as she looked into his eyes. He nodded, grinning."Deal."
