This Tom-Boy Loves You

** This is for my bestie Alli-kins who begged me to write her a romance. Hope i can make you and my fans proud.**

Alex, aka Alexandria, sat on the work bench watching Jason work underneath his car. A drool worthy 1963 Corvette Sting Ray he and his father are restoring. She couldn't wait to take it for a spin. With that thought she snorted, very un-lady like. As if I could think of breathing on the steering wheel without him having kittens, .

"What's so funny, gorgeous?" Asked Jason, as he slid out from under the car.

"Just contemplating the astronomical odds of me driving this beauty," she answered with a cheeky grin.

"As. If." He announced before stretching out the kinks in his neck and shoulders.

And what broad shoulders, she thought with an inaudible sigh. Oh, sweet Jesus, the scrumptious six. Who thought six little muscles could look so good.

"You checking me out, Coleson?" He asked with a knowing smirk.

"Ugh, so wrong. You wish." She replied, calm and unaffected on the outside, inside her heart was racing like a wild stallion on an open plain.

For four years, she had hidden her feelings for this gorgeous man in front of her. And there was no question about it. At 19 on the cusp of 20, just a mere six months older then herself, he had lost any babyfat from his high school days that football hadn't worked off him. Constant workouts this summer had succeeded. All his hard work definitely paid off. Shaggy golden brown hair, 6'4, eyes of fresh cut emerald, strong jaw line, he was one of the most wanted males in school. His personality had him offers practically crawling on the floor to be with The Jason Mitchell. But he was too old fashioned for that to make a difference. The whole time save the first month he moved to town and last four months since the break-up, he was with Jenna. He wasn't the guy who had a different girl every week. He was the whole package. Looks, personality, but didn't allow it to get to his head. He would never look at me as more than one of the boys, she thought. She was about to sigh again when she realized he was talking.

"-you okay? You kind of spaced out on me a few minutes." He asked, concerned.

"Yea, sorry. Just thinking." she replied hastily.

"Well while you think, I'm going to jump in the shower. Unless... You want to join?" He teased her, smirking.

"Dream on, Cassanova," she chuckled. "I'm going to go call and see if everyone is still on for the movies tonight."

"Fine, be that way, Alex." he pouted.

"You'll survive." She promised with an eye roll, before socking him in the arm and going to his living room to call their crew.

"Woo-hoo, the partay has arrived!" Shouted Allison, as Alex and Jason pulled up.

Allison jumped from the bed of the truck, their other friend hopping out too. Blakely aka Blaze sped up to loop his arm around his girlfriend.

"Slow down, Al. We're all going to the same place," said Blaze with, rolling his eyes.

She knew it had only been three days but she was glad to see her friends again. They would all soon be off doing different things this summer, unlike previous years. Xander and Lia were heading to Denver, Colorado for a college convention, before checking out UCLA and other possible college they would like. Marcus and Karly were going on a five week cruise with Marcus' mom and future step-dad. Two weeks in will be the ceremony where Marcus is Man of Honor and Karly one of the brides maids. Lisa and Kasey, the twin terrors, were stuck baby sitting their seven and eleven year old brothers the next three weeks. Only herself, Jason, Jamie, and Tristan would be able to hang out for a while. Good thing in used to hanging with the guys so much or I would die of boredom, thought Alex.
