The Maynards

Soft, Sweet Kisses

"Well.." I say trying to move the conversation along.
"Hi, I'm Conor"
"Yeah and I'm Jack." They both said, awkwardly.
I then heard my mum say, quite quietly "yeah, we know"
'This was not a good idea. What was I thinking?" I said to myself. I would always talk to myself in my head but would also do the facial expressions with it so I would always look a bit weird, just doing strange facial expressions.
"Right well I will go get Conor and Jack a drink, boys do you want to come?"
"Yeah" they said together, as if they were thanking me.
We went to where the drinks were and on the way Jack said, "that was honestly the most awkward situation I have ever been in. " I nodded in agreement. What was I going to do, they couldn't stay here, the grief I was going to get from my parents and family was going to be intense.
We got the drinks and told Jack to go into the living room as bronte was in there on her phone alone thankfully, as everyone else was outside waiting for lunch. I went into the kitchen with Conor where my grandma was putting all the food into plates.
"Hi darling, you wouldn't mind taking these into the garden for everyone?"
"Don't worry, I got it" said Conor, wow did he charm me. 
"Thanks babe. " I said as he walked out, my grandma gave me a funny look and I blushed and looked down.
"Gemma, is there anything you want to tell me?"
"No don't worry about it, here I'll take this." I grabbed the plate of food and raced out side where I saw Conor talking to my dad..... Crap. My dad is probably the worst person for Conor to talk to. I wasn't worried about Conor as he was quite the charmer and good with parents it was more my dad. He knows me and all my embarrassing secrets  and when I was obsessed with them a few years ago my dad would go insane at the mention of his name and do not like him, so the fact he was here I think my dad was slightly shocked.
I put the food on the table and sat next to Conor. Everyone was quite awkward and bronte and Jack were still talking, and I could feel the judging looks from everyone, especially my cousin Toby, brontes brother. He was 20 and would always bring his girlfriend to these lunches, and for someone to bring someone I think he was a bit annoyed.
I stood up to go to the loo and Conor asked me where I was going. He said he needed it too and I told him I would show him where it was, we both walked inside together, that did not look weird at all.
I showed Conor upstairs to the loo, he then suddenly pulled me in and slammed the door and pushed me up against me, I hoped none heard it. He was staring into my eyes for a few seconds before we passionately started to make out. His soft lips on mine as he began to slowly move to my neck. He then went back up to my lips and after a few more seconds of soft, sweet kisses, I pushed his chin up with my finger. He looked at me, our faces so close, he looked disappointed but there was no way this was going to go any further. I was not about to have sex on my grandmas bathroom floor. I told Conor to hurry up and left. As I opened the door Toby was standing there. He had just seen me walk out of a bathroom with Conor standing there, what the hell was he going to think.
"Lunch is ready" he said awkwardly. I thanked him and told him we would be down in a sec, his cheeks were bright red and he quickly walked downstairs. I turned back and gave Conor a little smirk, to be fair that whole situation was quite funny, he smiled back.
I went to the loo downstairs and as I walked out I overheard Jack and brontes conversation.
"Bronte is it mine."
"Look Jack I don't know but I'm pretty sure"
"You don't know, you don't know...... slag" Jack may have said it under his breather but I heard it and that meant bronte heard it. There was no way I was going to let jack talk to my cousin like that. So I decided to barge in,
"Jack how dare you, you're one to talk, it's like a new girl every night, constantly hitting on different girls, you are the actual definition of a fuckboy man whore, so don't you dare call my cousin a slag, you're the one who got her pregnant."
"Gemma, you know I'm pregnant?"
"Umm yeah, look don't get upset, you guys can and MUST work this out. It's a thing that has happened and it's not going away, I mean unless...."
"No!" Bronte was adement at this answer, Jack looked annoyed.
"Right, well that's none of my business but I think you need to think about this seriously, bronte your going to be at university studying and Jack, I mean Jack.... You are basically a child, let's just say it would be no more going out and parties. " they both looked at each other scared. I told them to think about it as it was time for lunch, I turned around to see Conor making me smile, he had some lipstick on his cheek so I got my finger and wiped it off, I looked back to see bronte smiling at me. I put my finger to my mouth hinting to keep it a secret, she agreed, to be fair she had bigger secrets I could spill.

After an extreme awkward but fun lunch of Jack and Conor mainly just talking to me,, Conor said him and Jack had to go, I wanted to go with them but that was not going to happen. They stood up and said a few awkward goodbyes and I showed them out to the car, I hugged Jack and he got in the car, I then checked behind me to make sure no one was looking and gave Conor a kiss, he was not expecting it, but pulled me in closer by the hips. I stopped and whispered in his ear,
"Later baby, I'll come over later,"
He did a cheeky little grin and got in the car, I waved them off and went back inside.
I walked into the living room where bronte and Toby were sitting, they both just looked at me... What?
"So, how's your new boyfriend?" said bronte, as if she was teasing me.
"He is not my boyfriend" I said, remembering she had slept with both of them before. She saw my concern and just said
"Look, it's fine, I was over those boys a long time ago."
'Really?' I thought but didn't want to make a scene and thanked her instead. Toby looked confused and was obviously clueless about Brontes past with the boys, or present situation with them, I mean I could tell him but instead I told them to just keep Conor and I a secret and sat down and we just spoke about school and stuff when I got a text from Conor. I picked up my phone and read it
'Heyyy baby, can't wait to see you later, don't bring much cause I will just have to take it all off again ;-)'
I smiled, bronte looked up at me, she had read the text as well.
"Look gemma I don't want to spoil your fun but just be careful ok, your a lot younger than them and they could use you"
I nodded, and although I was great fun for her advice, whenever anyone tries to tell me something I don't want to hear about Conor, I just ignore it. Toby looked up confused, I panicked then bronte went.
'She is meeting some friends later, just giving advice."
"Right" he looked scared, probably thought we meant girl stuff. Bronte was clever like that, she looked so innocent, but as I got older, I realised she really wasn't, like really wasn't.
Before I knew it it was time to go. We said goodbye and after the half and hour car journey it was already 9 o'clock. Mum sent us straight up to bed, my 14 year old brother not hesitating. My parents were acting funny to me ever since they met Conor and Jack, I wondered why, did they know something was happening. At about 10pm my mum came up and I pretended to be asleep, she turned the lights off and I was left. As soon as I heard her bedroom door close I quickly got changed into something a bit more club appropriate and grabbed my school bag with uniform in it as I was planning on staying the night and was not going to make the same mistake twice.
Luckily Conor and Jack lived close, as I got on the bus I called them and told them I was on my way. As I arrived I was greeted by everyone, Jack, josh, Caspar and his lady friend, Mikey, Joe and his girlfriend and Jack, but no Conor. After hugging everyone hello, all of them already a bit drunk, I asked Jack where Conor was,
"In his room finalising music" we both laughed, to be honest it was a stupid question. In the short time I had known Conor personally, I knew that if he wasn't clubbing or playing Fifa then he was in his room finishing music. I ran upstairs and barged in he was sitting at his desk with headphones on. He took his headphones off and I ran up to him and wrapped my legs round him and we started to kiss until we were interrupted but Jack yelling us down so we could leave.

With that we were off, I was ready to dance the night away and get wasted with Jack until we cant stop laughing, as usual. Let's just hope I'm awake in time for school and actually make it home this time....
