Part Thirteen
About two hours later everyone was at Justin’s house. All four girls gathered together and giggled about stuff. They watched Justin and Chris playing basketball. Joey and JC worked on putting up all the picnic tables and Lance helped Justin’s mom carry out stuff.
Cierra leaned in toward all the girls and got really quiet. She looked over at JC and smiled, then she looked back at the other girls. “I so thought we were about to do it this morning. I mean the thought was definitely there,” she said.
“Are you serious,” Anna said.
“Dead serious, we were just teasing at first but then I really thought that something was gonna happen, but then the phone rang and it was Chris asking what time everything was starting today.”
“Wow, were you scared?” Anna asked.
“Not at all. I feel way comfortable with him,” she said and then got interrupted.
“Cierra come here please,” JC yelled.
“Yeah,” she said as she got up and walked towards him.
“Well Justy’s mom just asked if we had any pictures of us and I realized that we don’t and I’d like to have one... so, smile!” he said and then pointed at Justin’s mom. She had a camera in her hand and snapped the picture as soon as Cierra turned. Cierra always had a smile on her face when she was around JC so that wouldn’t be a problem in the picture.
“JC I look terrible. The least you could have done is pose with me and make us actually look like we are a happy couple,” she laughed.
“Okay Okay,” he looked over and asked Justin’s mom to take one more.
“Are you ready this time?” she asked Cierra and JC.
“Very,” Cierra said back.
JC stood behind her with his arms around her waist and she had her hands on top of his. She had her head leaned against his chest. They for sure made a cute couple. They had the sparkle in their eyes that proved to be a quality that couples that had sparks had.
The day was long and everyone was beat by the time they got home. Justin’s mom and step dad made a huge lunch/dinner and they all messed around playing ball and just goofing off. The girls had an 11:45am flight to catch back home the next day. They couldn’t believe how fast the time went by.
Cierra and JC got home and sat themselves on the couch. They ate a small bowl of ice cream and watched a movie that was on TV. Cierra laid cuddle in JC’s arms through the whole thing. When it was over she almost didn’t want to get up because she knew that he would have to let her go.
“CiCi, baby I’m gonna go take a shower before bed okay? I feel all gross from runnin’ around so much today.”
“Okay. I’m just gonna go ahead and crawl into bed. I’ll probably still be awake when you get out,” she said as she fidgeted with her bracelet that matched the one on JC’s wrist.
He bent down and kissed her on the forehead and said, “okay.” He then walked up the stairs and headed for his room. He stripped down on the way to the bathroom and just stood in the shower once he got in.
Cierra made her way up to the room not long after JC got in the shower. She changed into a pair of PJ bottoms and a short button up t-shirt. Cierra walked over to the dresser and took out her earrings and set them next to the mirror, and then she flipped the light switch walked over to the bed. She slowly climbed into it and pulled one small sheet up to her waist, and turned on the small lamp next to her. Her hands were under her head so that it was slightly elevated.
A couple minutes later JC walked out of the bathroom with a towel around his waist. Though Cierra had seen him like that before, she still got chills when she saw the water dripping from his hair onto his chest. JC ran his right hand through his hair and then grabbed the smaller towel from off of the stand. He dried his hair off and then ran both of his hands through it to give it some composure.
“Still awake I see,” he said.
“Uh huh,” she said back.
“You tired,” he said.
“Just a little. You?”
“Eh, the shower woke me up some,” he said as he neared the bed.
Her eyes studied every inch of him and then she licked her lips and took a deep breath. He stood next to her and glided his hand over her cheek. His simple touch sent another set of chills down her spine. JC put one knee up next to her and smiled down at her. She smiled back and then reached her left hand up and ran it down his abs.
With her eyes glued to him she watched him reach his left arm around her and place it on her right side, to give him balance. He slowly leaned over and positioned himself so that he had one leg on each side of her. His towel was still draped over him, but the knot had came loose. Cierra placed her hands on his sides just below his pectoral muscles.
JC nuzzled her nose lightly with the upward movement of his head. He then kissed the tip of her nose and whispered that he loved her. Cierra took a huge gulp and closed her eyes as she felt him move his hand to the top button of her shirt. She began to lick her lips when she heard him speak.
“Are you ok?” he asked.
“I’m fine,” she said back in a shaky voice.
“We don’t have to do thi...” his words were broken as she lifted her head and kissed him. He continued to unbutton her shirt and then reached over and shut off the lamp.
Cierra woke up with the sheets pulled up to her chin. She turned slightly to look at JC. To her surprise he was awake too and staring right at her.
“Good morning,” he said and gave her a small kiss.
“Mmm, morning,” she said back.
JC rubbed his thumb over her cheek. “Are you okay?” he asked.
She looked at him and smiled. “Uh huh,” she said back to him.
JC pulled her closer to him and just held her. Cierra ran her fingers back and forth across his chest and just smiled up at him. She couldn’t believe what had happened last night. It was the most amazing experience she had ever had. JC was gentle with her the whole time and took things at a pace that Cierra was comfortable with. He had nothing but respect for her and he didn’t want to hurt her. JC knew that it was Cierra’s first time and he didn’t want to rush her into it at all.
Cierra closed her eyes and sighed. She looked over at the clock and saw what time it was. “Nine already,” she said.
“We should think about getting up. I think we are meeting over at Justy’s before we take you all to the airport.”
“Y’all are gonna go with us to the airport?” she asked. “What about all the fans,” she led on.
“They’ll deal. At most they might snap a few pics of all of us walking in there or something, but Lonnie is gonna clear the lobby for your terminal except for the people that have to get on the plane. We’ll be fine,” he said as he tried to reassure her.
“Ok,” she said.
“You wanna take a shower first, or you want me to?” he asked as he moved a little towards the edge of the bed.
“You can. I just wanna lay here for a minute,” Cierra said as she pulled the covers up a little higher.
“Okay,” he said and the sat up on the edge of the bed and reached over on the floor to grab his boxers. He pulled them up and then walked over to the bathroom.
As soon as JC was in the bathroom and she heard the water running Cierra put her hands over her eyes and then grabbed the pillow. She put it over her face to smother her voice. “Oh my God,” she said underneath the pillow. “I had sex with JC last night,” she said and then pulled the pillow closer to her face. She started flopping her feet on the bed. “oh my God oh my God,” she continued.
Cierra took the pillow off of her face and took a deep breath. “Pull yourself together,” she said. “hmmm, I guess you can tell how a guy is in bed by watching them dance, cuz damn.”
In the meantime JC leaned up against the wall of the shower and let the water run down his face. He was so happy. He had just made love to the girl he loved. He thought to himself, ‘it was her first time but she sure was good at what she did’. He finished washing his hair and then stepped out of the shower.
He walked into his room and saw Cierra sitting on the bed in one of his shirts. “Your turn,” he said. She smiled, got up, walked over to him and gave him a kiss, and then walked into the bathroom.
Two hours later everyone sat in Justin’s living room talking. Cierra and JC sat on the couch holding hands, Justin and Anna sat on the floor next to each other, Joey and Vickie sat on the other couch together, and Lance sat on the arm of the couch and Melissa sat on his lap.
“We need to get going,” Lonnie said.
“Alright,” Justin said and started to get up. He reached a hand out for Anna and then they kept their fingers locked. They all piled into the big white van and headed for the airport. Lonnie thought that it wouldn’t be ‘AS’ obvious if they didn’t show up in a limo. Chris wasn’t with them because early that morning he had to fly out to Cali to do some promo stuff for his company.
When they got to the airport Lonnie walked in to check the place out for tennyboppers and then came back out for the others. Each couple walked in hand and hand with each other. They only saw a couple flashes from camera so all in all they did well. The guys walked the girls to their terminal and Lonnie finished checking in all the girls luggage. It wasn’t going to be as hard for them to leave that time because they knew that the guys would individually be stopping in to see them until next month when they all came down.
They each got their hugs and kisses and then the guys watched their girls walk down the hallway toward the airplane. As soon as the plane took off the guys rushed out of there and headed back home to get ready for a press conference they had scheduled at three that afternoon.
While the girls sat on the airplane they discussed what happened the night before and were all astonished to find out about Cierra’s night with JC. Cierra didn’t plan on telling anyone else, but these were her best friends and she knew that they would recognize her ‘personal high’ eventually and want to know about it. They all agreed that it was a great trip and they couldn’t wait to see the guys again.
