Caught Up // Jimmy Butler

Chapter 23

"Maybe." Allison smirked, sarcastically as Jimmy shook his head.

"Better be." He whispered, pressing his lips to hers gently.

Suddenly he found himself roaming her body, hands grasping at her shirt while his lips trailed down her neck.

"Wait..." Allison whispered, reluctantly.

"What?" Jimmy questioned, pulling back to look at her.

"We shouldn't." She shrugged, giving him a little smirk.

"Huh?" He asked, confused.

"We should wait until the wedding," She said, "Your mom gave me the idea. She said it'll be more special if we wait." She concluded, laughing a little as she saw Jimmy roll his eyes.

"Are you kidding?"

"No," She shrugged, "C'mon."

"My mom gave you this idea?" He groaned, rolling over.

"Mhm." Allison giggled, "She said it's bad luck, same with if you see the wedding dress."

"You are not that superstitious?" He said, giving her a look.

"You can't go a week without sex?" Allison laughed.

"No!" Jimmy laughed, as he laid down and Allison crawled over and put her head on his chest.

"Liar." She shook her head, as Jimmy's hands automatically made their way to her hair as he started massaging her head and playing with her hair, "You think you can bribe me now, huh?" She asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Nah," Jimmy shook his head, "You're right." He admitted, bringing his eyes to meet hers, "It will be more special."

"Awww." Allison swooned with a smirk.

"Yeah, yeah." He chuckled.

Allison brought her hands up to his chest and started tracing his muscles through his shirt.

"Don't do it to me Walker." He warned, as her hands continued around his chest.

"What?" She asked, playing dumb.

"You're not slick." He laughed, shaking his head.

"Hmm." Allison sighed, repositioning herself to her back as she placed her head back on Jimmy's chest as she looked towards the ceiling.

"What?" He questioned, bringing his hands down to tangle with her own.

"Are you scared?" She asked seriously.

"Scared?" He repeated, "About us?" He asked, as she looked up to meet his eyes and nodded, "Nah."

"Don't lie to me." She said honestly.

"You're scared?" He inquired, not knowing where this was coming from.

"I don't know." Allison sighed, "I just feel like it's always something with us." She explained, "I don't want problems anymore, and I'm scared we're not ready and then you're gonna regret it and-"

"Ayeee, shhh." Jimmy calmed, bringing one of his hands up to her face, "I love you." He stated, looking her dead in the eyes, "Do you love me?"

"Of course." She whispered.

"Then that's it." He shrugged, "Baby, all I need is you. I don't care about that other shit. I love you and I'll go through it all as long as I have you."

"You say that now but-" She interjected.

"Where is this coming from?" He questioned with concern, "Nothing's changing. Ever – I promise you."
