James Maslow: Chances

James Maslow: Chances PT 5

"He's the guy I train from work." You shrug as you answer Kendall.

"He's the guy?!" Kendall asked sounding a little alarmed.

"Yeah, why?" You ask looking at Kendall.

"Psh...no reason." Kendall frowned slightly jealous.

You guys enjoyed the rest of the afternoon trying not to think of James and the small tension between the two of you; you finished your lunch laying on the mat with Kendall before your alarm goes off for work. You sit up and turn off the alarm; Kendall sits beside you as you do.

"Work time babe?" Kendall asks as he stands and helps you up.

You grab your work bag and nod.

"Yeah, sorry babe." You kiss him gently.

He kisses you back.

"Did you want me to give you a lift to work?" He asks walking you up from the beach to the road.

"It's okay; it's only about 2 blocks anyway." You reply holding his hand in yours.

He smiles before pecking your lips once more.

"I love you." He says as you both smile at each other.

"I love you too." You reply walking to work.

Kendall walks in the opposite direction to you and up to the surf club; he smiles seeing a tall brunette woman and wraps his arms around her waist from behind...

MEANWHILE...

You walk to work and quickly change in the bathroom, smile before walking up to Jake and Sam.

"Hey guys, Jake, is James here yet?" You ask looking around.

"Not yet, but would you be able to clean the tools just over on the bench?" Jake asks.

Sam says hello before you grab a cloth and starts to wipe down the tools with grease on them. You're cleaning for about 10 minutes before two hands cover your eyes.

"I'm ready to be taught cutie." You hear against your ear.

You giggle as James removes his hands from your eyes.

"Hey James." You smile as he grabs another cloth and helps with the greased tools.

He smiles sitting on the bench beside you.

"This looks fun; you were waiting on me?" He chuckled glancing at you as he wiped the spanner.

You nod and smile up at him as you put down the cloth and tool.

"Yep, you were late so I had to do something with my time." You laugh as you start walking to the car with James closely following behind you.

"Well, better late than never I always say." He winks as he leans against the car you both have to fix.

You shake your head smiling at him before looking at the car.

"Today we're going to replace all four tires, check the break line and putting in a 15 inch fan belt." You smirk looking at James as he watches you talk with his mouth slightly open as he realizes you both have a lot of work to do.

"Let's get started on the fan belt boss." He salutes you before opening the hood of the car.

You look in the hood, before asking James to get a fan belt from the wall. You both, once again, enjoy work by being flirty and being playful with each other. He helps you replace the fan belt before you make him slide under the car to check the break line; after he double checks it, you slide under and make sure its fine.
