One Step Closer (Sequel to OSAAT)

Chapter Twenty-Four.

Ali's POV

"That's Jim?" Kylie asked as Jack and a tall guy with dark hair walked into the room.

"I'm guessing." I said and she squealed.

"He is so adorable and fit!" she said and I rolled my eyes.

"Uh, this is Jim. He can fix anything. He's like Bob The Builder!" Jack said and laughed awkwardly, scratching the back of his neck. Jim glared at Jack and Jack coughed. Jim looked at Kylie and I with a blank expression.

"I'm not like Bob The Builder." he said. He's voice was so beautiful, it made me want to die. Kylie and I made eye contact and I could tell we were both squealing inside. I looked at Jack and wiped the grin off my face. I made a serious face and Kylie burst out into giggles. Jim looked at her and she stopped.

"He might not like giggling... so I have to zip my lips." she said quietly to me.

"Oh, yeah. Way to be casual." I said and she nodded. I rolled my eyes and looked back at Jack. He was staring at me, so I walked over to him.

"What's the matter?" I asked him and he shrugged. I laid my head on his shoulder and he kissed my head.

"So, Jim. What's your major?" I heard Kylie's voice and quickly looked to my right a little. She was leaning against the wall, smiling.

"Jack... this girl is scaring me." Jim said and I laughed. Kylie glared at me and walked out of the room. Jim looked back at us. "Do you think she hates me? She's totally cute." Kylie walked back into the room. Jim's eyes widened and he went back to fixing the door. Jack and I slapped our foreheads in unison and Kylie walked over to us.

"He's pretty hot, right Jack?"

"Why are you asking me?" Jack asked and Kylie looked up at him.

"Uhm. I don't know. I didn't really think you wanted to hear Ali say he was hot when you were right here." Kylie said and I pinched her back. "Not that she thinks that."

"All done! Bye!" Jim said and ran out of the room.

"Damn! That was fast. Does that mean he is good with his hands?" Kylie asked me and my eyes widened.

"Leave. Now." I said and she sighed.

"Fine. No more breaking doors you two, alright?" she said and winked at me. She walked out of the room and closed the door.

"I swear to God, she's never like that." I said and Jack laughed.

"Okay, whatever you say." Jack said. He walked to the door and locked it. "So... where were we before all of that happened?"

"I don't remember." I said and walked to the living room. He grabbed my hand and I stopped walking. I turned around and looked up at him.

"Jack remembers." he said and I laughed. He leaned down, kissing me softly. I kissed back and put my arms around his neck.

"No more," I said in between a kiss. "pinning me against doors."

"That was fun until the door collapsed." he said. He sat on the arm of the couch, and I leaned down, still kissing him. He fell back on to the couch, and I fell ontop of him. I pulled away from him and got up. "Where are you going?" he asked me. I shrugged and he tugged on my t-shirt. I looked back at him and he smiled. I walked away from him and he stood up. He followed me into the kitchen and I opened the fridge. He kissed my neck and I turned around.

"No." I said and grabbed a lemonade from the fridge.

"No?"

"No." I said and he pouted.
