Serenas POV

The sun was starting to set as I made my way over to Sophias. I don't know how she managed to make me give in to her so easily. I mean, I went into her class pissed at her and here I was 6 hours later driving to her house. It was strange to me how quickly we had developed feelings for one another. If that's what this even was. 

I never really had feelings for anyone. Julianna was the closest thing I ever had to a girlfriend but I knew I never loved her. It was different with Sophia. Most girls I just viewed as a quick lay and nothing else, for some reason I didn't want to do that with her. I wanted to get to know her and that scared me. 

I pulled up to the familiar apartment and parked my car, walking up to her door. Before I could even knock the door swung up revealing a very sexy Ms.Ryan in short shorts and a tank top. She definitely did that on purpose. 

I let my eyes travel her body taking in her beauty before she cleared her throat, bringing my attention back to her gaze. 

"My eyes are up here babe," she said and for some reason the way she said babe made my heart flutter. 

I just laughed making my way past her and into her apartment. I went over to her couch and plopped down making myself comfortable. When she reached me she just looked at me and laughed. 

"Please, make yourself at home," she said, with clear sarcasm in her voice.

I rolled my eyes smiling, "You were the one that invited me" I said holding my hands up in defense. 

She sat at the other end of the couch which I thought was weird because she was acting as if she was scared to get too close to me. 

"Let's watch a movie" I nodded my head as she stood pulling her already short shorts up. Oh, she was so teasing me. Well, two could play at this game. 

I sat up on the couch as she picked a movie and put it in the DVD player. I began removing my jacket which left me in a rather tight crop top that revealed quite a bit of my toned stomach. When she turned back towards the couch and noticed my outfit change, her gaze was filled with lust. I watched as she swallowed hard and slowly made her way back to her seat. 

"Hey where's your bathroom," I asked watching her struggle to keep her eyes off me. 

"Second door on the left" she replied while refusing to make eye contact. I smirked at that.

I made my way to her bathroom running my hands through my hair and adjusting myself. I decided I would need to be bold to get her to give in. When I finished fixing my appearance I made my way back out to the living room but instead of sitting where I was before, I walked right over to Sophia.

I stopped in front of her and her eyes shot up to mine. She looked confused as to what I was doing but also intrigued. I placed my legs on either side of her thighs and straddled her lap bringing my arms around her neck. 

The look on her face was priceless. Her hands went to my lower back and then down to my ass. 

"You know we're never going to get to know each other If you're scared to touch me," I said with a smirk causing her to laugh. 

She moved her hands up from my ass to the hem of my leggings. I was confused until I felt her hands traveling back down but this time on my bare skin. My eyes closed at the sensation. When I opened them Sophia was staring right at me. 

"Oh trust me, I'm not scared to touch you" she was smirking and her tone was so seductive. I felt myself shiver. I brought my face closer to hers so there were only a couple of inches separating us. My hands went to her sides now as I lightly grazed my nails on her soft skin.

"Prove it" I whispered and she wasted no time in connecting our lips. I would never get tired of kissing her. Her mouth moved perfectly on mine and I felt butterflies rising in my stomach. 

Things were heating up quickly and I heard a moan escape when I bit on her bottom lip. Just as I started to trail kisses down her jaw, I was interrupted by the sound of my phone ringing. 

"Don't you dare answer that" she mumbled, out of breath. I sat up giving her an apologetic look, "It could be Jax" I said and she nodded understandingly. 

I grabbed the phone out of my jacket pocket and saw Gemma's name flashing on my screen. Well, that can't be good. 

"Hello," I said in a confused tone.

"Serena I need you to get back here" her voice was muffled and it sounded like she'd been crying.

"what's wrong?" I asked, fear rising in my stomach.

"Just get to the safe house" 

"Gemma what happened" I was starting to panic.

She sighed into the phone "Jax has been shot" 

My heart dropped and my mouth was hanging wide open. I couldn't do anything, I couldn't move, I couldn't respond, all I could do was stand there in shock. The room felt like it was spinning and everything seemed to be closing in on me. I thought of Jax sitting somewhere in pain and covered in blood. 

Then as if my mind took over, I snapped out of it realizing I needed to get to Jax. 

"I'm on my way," I said to Gemma hanging up the phone. 

I began to put my jacket and shoes back on, Sophia was looking at me with concern written all over her face. 

"I gotta go" my tone was flustered as I rushed to get out her door.

She grabbed my hand, "Serena what's going on?" those blue orbs holding so much worry. 

"Jax was shot" and that's all I said as I hurried out the door to my car.
