James Taylor

Date Nights part 2

(James)

"Well James I have to hand it to you. You know how to impress a girl" she said as we stood on the private beach. 

"I aim to please. Speaking of which let's start the picnic" I said laying out a blanket and putting the basket down.

Soon I took out all the delicious food my mom cooked and put the roses in a vase putting it in the center of the blanket beside of the campaign. This was the non alcoholic champagne because I was a incredibly light weight that got drunk off of even the most minute of alcohol levels. Which a sip rendering me wasted

"Wow fancy" she said before I threw out the campaign in glasses.

We sat, ate and drank while music that Libby hooked me up with played.

After packing up we laid on the blanket watching the sunset.

"How did you find this place?" she asked laying on my chest while I had my arms were around her smiling

"I was looking for research materials when I came across this place. It was privately owned so I had to use the entirety of my funding to rent out this place for the summer" I told her

"Wow aren't you the big spender?" she joked

"Too bad it was all a waste. I didn't find what I was looking for and had to return back empty handed" 

"I'm sure your investors weren't happy about that. They must have been pretty upset" she chuckled 

"I'm sure they were but they didn't show it. Compare to having my name attached to their campus what's a few hundred thousand"

"It must be pretty good to be you" she said

"Why do you say that?" I asked taking a sip of champagne

"You're really smart. You don't have to worry about passing an failing classes, you have great friends, good looks, loving happily married parents and colleges are fighting to get you to join. While must kids our age are trying to save up for college you have colleges paying you" she said with an envious smile

"I guess I do have life rather easy" I smiled

"Yeah, you can thank that big brain of yours" she joked 

"Don't know what I'd do without it"

"But seriously what would you do?" she asked

"Huh?" 

"If you don't become a scientist what would you be? Or what would you like to be?" she asked

"Hm?" I said. This was a real head scratcher. What would I be if I weren't a genius

"I would probably become a teacher" I threw out a random profession

"I could see it now. Professor Taylor walking into class" she laughed

"What about you? What do you want to become?" I asked her

"Hm..I want to become an actress" she said 

"That's a surprise? Why?" I asked

"To get rich and famous" 

"Really?" 

"What? Were you expecting some deep psychological reason" she chuckled

"Would you be surprised if I say yes" I chuckled

"What? Something like I want to be an actress so I can be someone else. Even if just for a little while. I wanted to be someone else. Maybe it would be better than being me" she said. Though she had been smiling when she said that, her eyes matching those of a abandoned puppy revealed her inner thoughts

"What's so bad about being you? I rather like you now" I said

"You've only seen the good parts" she said

"And I liked it" I told her getting a genuine smile

"You have a beautiful smile" I told her moving closer to her

"Thank you" she said moving closer to me. Just as we were about to kiss she moved her head

"The sun's going down" she said as she got up off the blanket

"oh yeah you're right" I said after a cough to hide my embarrassment 

"So what's next?" She asked

"It's getting late. I think we should head home" I said getting up as her smile turned into one of disappointment

"Unless you have another idea?" I asked. Smiling again she started talking off her clothes. All her clothes!

"It's such a beautiful night and we have an entire beach to ourselves. It would be a shame to go back without going for a little swim" she said taking off her bra.

I wanted to reject but my words of protest got dropped from my mouth along with my jaw. Skinny dipping. She really wanted to go skinny dipping. Oh my God am I dreaming? Skinny dipping with Betty Ann Turner. That had to be a dream right. But if it was I didn't want to wake up

"Come on James" she said as she put her hands on my chest

"Don't tell me you don't want to swim with me" she said as her hands made its way to my jacket and pulled it off before making her way to the hem of my shirt and pulled it over my head before wrapping her hands around my neck and threw it on the sand then she moved slowly from my back to the buckle of my belt before she took it then my pants off.

I tried protesting but her breast were pressed up against my chest so I couldn't focus on protest and I was being completely honest I didn't want to. I just stood there until she tried taking off my underwear

"Okay okay that can stay" I said. My face now a deep shade of crimson

"Do you really want to go back in soggy underwear?" She asked

"I don't see you worrying about it" I said thinking she wouldn't take off her underwear

"I guess it's only fair" she said as she stepped back and took off her underwear then threw it in my chest and I caught it

'No way!' I thought as I stared at it. It was like I was looking at proof of extraterrestrial life. I just couldn't believe it was actually there

"This way James" she said as I looked up to see her naked figure enter the water.

And with that the last bit of my self-control went out the proverbial window and I charged into the water swimming over to where she was and as soon as I did she wrapped her arms around my head. We were waist deep in water holding unto each other

"I knew you would come around" she said

"With the invitation you gave me I couldn't exactly say no" I said blushing as she smirked and gripped my hair moving closer to my ear

"Since I got you hot and bothered. Let me help you cool off" she whispered before pushing my head under the water for about a minute before letting go. I got up and spat the water out of my mouth and glared playfully at the laughing beauty in front of me

"You're so gonna get it Turner" I said

"You'll have to catch me first" she said as she swam away.

I chased after her and when I caught her I lifted her up and threw her in the water before pulling her up.

With my hands around her waist I stared into her brown sparkling eyes as the water dripped from our bodies then the distance slowly started closing them she wrapped her arms around my neck and pulled me closer connecting our lips.

We kissed passionately for three minutes before breaking for air.

We just stared at each other with smiles on our faces before a wave crashed against us submerging us in the water. Betty started laughing after we resurfaced

"Getting a little hands, aren't we?" She laughed playfully but I just got a confused look

"That's not me" 

"I can feel your hand" she chuckled

"My hands are on your waist" I said

"Then what's going up my leg" she said worriedly

I dipped into the water and saw a snake the size of my hand wrapped around her leg making its way up. After seeing the snake I went back up

"Okay Betty. Don't freak out. There's a snake on your leg. I'm going to go down and see if I can get it off. Don't move" I said before she nodded then I smiled as I dived down and grabbed unto the snake

'I hope this thing isn't poisonous' I thought before yanking it off her leg and rushing to the top. The snake wiggled and wormed in my hands before I felt its fang go into my right hand. But I finally got a good grip so I threw it as far as I far. I started swimming back to shore but soon found my head getting lighter. I was dizzy and my eyes were blurry. I'm not sure what happened but I blacked out just before I reached the shore

"James" I heard Betty's voice say before feeling something soft on my lips then a force pushing on my chest making in spit out the water in my lungs before I looked at Betty who let out a relieved sigh

"Betty" I said after my coughing fit

"About time you woke up I was getting worried" she said

"Did you just give me mouth to mouth" I said smiling as I touched my lips

"Yeah" she said as I looked down to see that my hand was bandaged

"What happened to my hand?" I asked

"The snake was poisonous. So I had to suck out the venom" she said

"So you find my first aid kit" I said

"Yeah" she said

"Yeah I think we should head home now" I said as I got up then we went back in the car

"You're gonna have to be the one to drive. I still can't move that much" I said. Wow the venom in that snake is really potent. I should try collecting a sample. It spreads really fast

"Sure" she said before we got in the car. Midway to town the car started making strange noises

"What is that?" she asked

"I don't know" I said before the car suddenly stopped

"Oh great" I said sarcastically

"I'm guessing that's bad" she said

"We might need to call someone" I sighed. I normally would be able to do this myself but considering my current situation that was still impossible. Soon the repairman came taking a look at the engine

"This is probably the worst date you've ever been on right" I said laying in Betty's lap in the backseat

"Let's see. I had to save my date's life twice. One from drowning then from snake venom. That's a different type of kissing and sucking than I'm use to. And to top it all of I probably got sand in places they really shouldn't be" she said

"So worst date ever?" I said grimly

" I also got to drink champagne as well as stay on a beach by myself and who knows maybe next time we can fulfill a fantasy of mine. Plus I've had worst." she said with a wink

"Next time? There's gonna be more dates"

"Not really dates but date like outings" she clarified

"I'm glad to hear that but the fact that you had worse dates scares me" I said before she giggled giving me another kiss

"Hey lovebirds. The car's fix" he said tapping the window

"Thank you" I laughed paying him

"You should go back to drive" I said after one more kiss. She went back to the driver's seat directly after driving us straight back to town

"Thank you for the dinner. I had a great time" she said

"I did too" I said

"Well I guess see you tomorrow James" she said before she walked away

"Is that really how we're gonna end tonight" I sighed

"I was planning on given you a kiss but I think you've already exceeded the limit" she teased

"Come on that's not fair" I chuckled as she walked away swinging her hips as she made her way to the door then she opened it walked inside. I sighed looking at the door longing until it opened and she blew me a kiss before winking and closing the door

"See ya" I said smiling like a buffoon before jumping in my car. Dancing in my seat the drive back to my house

(Sophie)

The night had been going wonderfully. Nick and I were sitting in the restaurant talking about our day when suddenly his phone went off with one look his smile went away

"Um.....Who is it?" I asked

"No one" he said hanging up

"Okay" I said before the ringtone went off again

"No one is really insistent" I said passive aggressively

"It's fine. It's probably something trivial" he said

"Doesn't seem like something trivial. Who is it?" I said

"Yeah it's just a friend" he said hanging up again then the person called again

"Come on. Take a damn hint" he cursed

"Nick it's okay. You can answer the phone"

"You sure" he asked

"Yes, the person won't stop calling so it must be something important. So you can go talk to them" I said

"I'll make it quick I promise" he said as he got up and answered the phone before walking out.

So there I was stuck in the restaurant fiddling my thumbs for five minutes when suddenly I got a message. Taking up my phone I clicked on i********: message and the first thing I saw on Betty's page was Taylor and Betty taking a selfie on the beach on her story. My blood was boiling but I didn't know why. You know what I did. It wasn't jealousy. Why would I be jealous of Taylor? I didn't care that he got himself a girlfriend. But did it seriously have to be her. There's so many better girls in the town and he chose Betty Ann. It really pisses me off, Before we were dating he was practically a dog drooling over a bone every time he saw her and some part of me knew he had feelings for her even when we were dating. Now he's dating her so that proves it

"Sophie. Sophie" Nick's voice said knocking me out of my daze

"Huh. Sorry I spaced out" I said

"You've been doing that a lot lately. Is something up?" he asked

"No I'm fine. I guess classes have made me a little stress" I said 

"Okay. Then maybe you should take more breaks. Let the genius handle the projects. All work and no play makes Sophia a dull girl" he joked

"Coming from the guy that refuses to go to school" I said

"It was just one day Soph"

"Yeah it was just one day last time. But then that turned into one week then one month and before long it was the whole semester. After that you stopped coming to school all together. You know just because your parents have money doesn't mean you can slack off your whole life Nick"

"Look I'm sorry okay. Can we just stop talking about this. I promise I'll be at school tomorrow. Bright and early"

"Whatever. How was your call?" I asked

"It's okay. It wasn't anything important" he said with a smile

"So who was it?" I asked

"One of my friends" he said

"Oh a friend. Would this friend happen to be a girl?" I asked

"Yeah" he said eating a piece of steak

"Is she good looking?" I asked cutting a piece

"I guess why?" He asked nonchalantly cutting another piece his steak

"Oh no reason" I said eating the piece I had cut

"Wait. Sophia Aurora Vortex are you jealous?" He asked a smug smile

"Hmph as if" I said taking another bite from the steak

"I mean I understand why you would be. She is insanely hot" He said

"Hot?" I said

"Yeah she gets mistaken for a model all the time" he said

"A model huh" I said

"She has such a great figure. Big breast, slim waist and a phat ass-" he said before realizing he was doing too much

"Why did you stop? Please carry on" I said in a threatening tone

"You know now that I think about it. She isn't all that beautiful. Especially when I compare her to you" he said

"Mm hmm. Nice save lover boy" I said before a waiter came up to us

"Is it time for dessert all ready?" Nick asked

"Um yes. But there's someone here to see you" he said before Nick looked behind me then growled angrily

"Damn it" he said under his breath

"Just give me a minute please" he said before he got up and walked out the restaurant once again

"Um Madam" he said

"Not married" I said

"Uh?" he said

"You say Madam when the person is married otherwise it's mademoiselle" I explained

"I'm sorry I didn't do well in French class at all. I'm actually just filling in for a guy" he explained

"Oh it's okay. I was just pointing something out" I said

"Thanks a lot so would you like to eat your dessert here or to go?" The waiter asked

"Here please" I said before he left

I turned around and saw Nick arguing with a blonde girl.

She looked a little older than us I'd say about a year or two. She looked to be a size two so needless to say she had a slim waist but surprisingly enough she had big asset in front and behind. She was exactly as Nick described. The perfect example of an hour glass figure and her beautiful face made her even more attractive. About a few minutes later he gave her money then a kiss on the cheek. I sighed as I called the waiter over

"Sorry about this but could I change that to go please" I said before calling an Uber

"Sure" he said as he went back to the chef.

About a minute later Nick came back

"Sorry about that? She just wanted to borrow some money" He said taking his seat

"No it's okay" I said getting up and taking up my purse

"Where are you going?" I asked

"I'm getting a little tired. I should be heading home. I have school tomorrow" I said as the waiter came back and gave me the dessert

"Thanks a lot" I said

"Okay at least let me drive you home" he said

"No I'm fine. I already called an uber" I said as I started heading for the door.

Nick chased after me after random throwing money down in the table uncaringly and unknowingly leaving a rather sizable tip

"Come on Sophie let me drive you home" he said

"I'm okay" I said

"Is it about Vanessa? Listen she's just a friend" he said

"It's not about her. I just have school early tomorrow" he said

"Then let me drive you home" he said

"Nick I'm fine" I said

"You'll reach home faster" he said before a car pulled up beside me

"Are you Sophie Vortex?" He asked

"Yeah that's me" I said as I opened the door

"Fine" Nick said before he walked to the driver's seat window and gave him a hundred dollar bill

"Make sure she gets home okay and you can give the change to her" he said before leaning up allowing the driver to drive away

He drove me back to my house and started to give me the change

"You can keep it" I said as I got out and he drove away then I looked across the street and saw Taylor parking the old car on his lawn with a goofy smile on his face. 

"Hey Taylor" I said making my way over to him 

"Vortex what are you still doing up?" He asked

"I just got back from a date" I said

"Really. Did Nick get a new car again?" He asked

"No I took an uber" I said

"Yikes guessing the date didn't go so well" he said

"It was fine until he kissed a girl in front of me" I said

"Did he really do that?" He asked

"Well technically it was behind my back and it was just a little peck on the cheek" I admitted

"Sophie that's nothing to be mad about" he laughed

"You think I'm overreacting?" I asked

"Yeah" he nodded

"Whatever so how was your....date" I said chucking out the last word

"It was okay I guess" he said with a perverse grin making me glare at him

"Okay huh" I said

"Yeah I mean we went on a picnic" he said

"That's all?" I said

"Um, we kissed I guess" he said

"Like a little peck" I asked

"Um, do you remember how we kissed last month?" He asked. I tensed up a bit at that time

"Vortex. You okay?" He asked 

"Yeah I'm fine. I'm just surprised. You guys must be pretty serious huh? I asked

"I don't know. I think we can go there. I hadn't felt this way since...you know. I feel like with Betty I can finally start a relationship. You understand what I mean?" he said

"Yeah yeah. Totally, I felt the same way when I started seeing Nick"

"Are you really okay Soph? You're shaking" he said

"I'm probably just cold. I think I'm coming down with something. I just need to get home okay. School tomorrow an everything. You know how Mrs. Jones gets" I said

"Actually there's no class tomorrow Mrs. Jones will be out" he said

"Oh I still need to finish up my other homework" I lied rushing across the street

"Bye" he called out but I didn't respond I just entered my house slamming the door behind me for sliding down in putting my face in my lap as tears ran down my eyes

'Why am I crying?
