In The Army

|leaving & teasing

Their group was a bit larger than usual after calum informed everyone that the two MEDDAC females would be joining them for drinks. Ross was a mess of conflicting emotions as he stood there when Calum made the little announcement earlier that day at the motor pool. Yes, he'd cut most of his blonde hair, so much so that if he pushed his bangs out of his face and threw on a hat he could pass for actually having his required crew cut, and yes he showed up, but not to prove to Calum that he'd kept their bet so much as to be there when Laura showed. He wasn't sure what he would say to her or how she would act towards him after what took place between them, but he wouldn't have any of his comrades thinking she was up for grabs... no matter what he had to do to fend them off.

Just as he finished that thought, there she was, standing with her back to him at the bar with her friend and fucking hell! She looked, looked... he swallowed hard, hotter than he'd ever seen her. The civilian clothes he'd seen on her were cute, very cute, but tonight she looked like a goddess, decked out in leather except for the black cotton top that was held together by a long line of silky, feminine strings that braided down her entire back to tie neatly in a bow. When she turned around, he noticed it showed her mid-riff off where she sported a silver belly ring. The short black leather mini-skirt barely came to mid-thigh and her knee-high boots he'd seen her wear before completed the outfit. Every male in the place had to be as hard as he was right now. She looked like the little sex kitten he knew her to be and he couldn't help but wink at her when she caught him staring. He was sure she'd dressed that way just for him, and he was definitely going to show her just how much he appreciated the gesture. Seems she'd finally come around and accepted the inevitable... they belonged together.

"Okay, I got my beer. Now let's go find calum and his motley crew of foot soldiers."

"Oh my God!" Hannah had already turned around and the sight she saw took her by complete surprise right before she gasped in surprise and tilted her head to get a better look..

"Wha..." Turning around, she quickly caught sight of the reason for her roommate's reaction. There was Ross, standing next to Calum, looking as fine as ever in his more typical, faded jeans and white tee, but with his Californian surfer-style hair trimmed considerably, his neck cleaned up and his unruly bangs barely swooping down in front of one eye. He winked at her. "What the hell?" The wink was the second shock to the haircut and he had that all too familiar smug look about him. She quickly turned back around and picked up her beer, taking a huge swig from it. "Oh-my-God!" This was so not happening. He looked good, surprisingly sexy even though he'd tamed his rebellious hair style for someone in the Army, but the look on his face had her fuming. The cocky gesture meant he must have misinterpreted their kiss for something more than what it was... a heat of the moment thing that her lack of better judgment had lured her to participate in.

"Your boy looks good, Laur. Come on, time to join them for this drink before we high-tail it outta here."

"Yeah." It only took a moment to recall the way he'd treated her all along and his expression suggested he was going back to being the jerk she knew him to be.Erghhhh, how dare he after she'd went and apologized. She thought that meant something to him. Obviously not. Fine, okay, if he was going to go back to being his usual arrogant self, well, she would just have to remind him where he stood with her.

For the next twenty minutes, Laura put as much distance between them as possible, smiling away at his friends, making small talk while drinking her beer, ignoring his presence entirely. He thought for sure, no, he knew they'd come to an understanding with the way she kissed him back and even encouraged his advances in the woods. Now... now she was back to acting as if he were beneath her, unworthy of acknowledgement in any form.

"We need a woman's perspective," Calum turned to both the girls. "Men have the same typical reasons for joining the Army, but what's the story on why you two joined?"

Hannah answered him first.

"This is the only place where I'm treated as an equal and can make as much money as a man."

Laura chimed in to back her friend up. "I agree. I mean let's face it, in the civilian sector men make two thirds of the world's income. But here," she spread her hands wide, "We're equals. It doesn't matter the age or gender, it's time in service that determines income."

"Sounds like bullshit to me," ross quickly interjected, trying to gain some measure of her attention.

Hannah nodded in agreement with laura. "Take a man and a woman who are both at the same executive level in corporate America. The typical paycheck for that female executive is at least twenty thousand less than the guy who has the same amount of experience in terms of years with the company."

"Shoot," one of the other men went ghetto. "I'd give twenty percent of my paycheck to have multiple orgasms." Everyone around them burst out laughing while a few of the men shouted, 'here, here'.

"Speaking of... time to hustle," Hannah nudged laur's side while pointing to her watch. She needed to keep 'operation orgasm' on schedule if she and calum were going to succeed.

"Gotcha." She walked over to Calum and ignored Ross completely as she embraced him for a hug. "Gotta go, sorry. It's been fun, thank you."

"Awww," several of the guys chimed at the same time. "Leaving us so soon?"

"Afraid so."

"Hot date, huh?" Calum asked.

"Something like that." She winked at him, all the while feeling Ross's eyes bore a very welcome, jealous hole through her clothes. Good. He should have known better. If he'd been nice to her, they might have had a pleasant conversation for once. Alas, it wasn't meant to be. He'd chosen to resort back to being the natural born ass he was and ruin everything. His loss... totally. She felt a smug sense of satisfaction when she caught him staring after her retreating form and she purposefully exaggerated the sway of her hips to drive home the unspoken point.

A/N: hey guys, hopefully guys love this chapter and just a heads up the next chapter is going to get a little steamy so I have to warn you guys whenever the next chapter is going to be rated M, so just warning you anyways.

I also have another news and kind of a question for you guys, so there was a show on Disney Channel that was on in 2009-2010 and it was called Jonas (from jonas brothers) and then they made a season 2 into Jonas L.A and literally I was so so obsessed with that show when I was little, and I have been watching a marathon of every episode and if anyone ever saw this show also knew that in season 2 Nick and Macy liked each other and started a relationship and.... come on they were adorable together, I ship them so hard. But then I grew up and I forgot about the show. but now seeing the show again I really really really think that they're a cute couple; Nick and Macy. and I have been thinking that I want to do a book about them and this is going to be a little different because I usually just write about raura but I'm ready to start writing about something different, and if you don't know anything about these characters you can watch the show and I also put a video of nick serenading macy ♡ the feels!. it's actually a very funny show and if you have watch the show are you a nacy shipper? like oh my God they're so adorable together I just can't!!!!!!

Do u think I should do the book? But I'm making it about fantasy trust me it's so adorable!

Back then I had a crush on nick 🙈😂 he's my favorite...he's so cute!

And nick's rap tho! 🙈💜

In this episode originally nick and nicole kissed after he serenaded her but it got cut off cuz as chealse said "it was a to hot/steamy kiss for Disney" 😂😂😂
