"AJ, did I ever tell you how much you guys kick ass?"
"Yeah, only about a billion times!" he said kissing and embracing her in a hug.
"Ewww, you’re all sweaty!"
"Fine! I’ll go change your highness."
"Thank you, my prince."
Jesykah chuckled to herself as she watched AJ walk away. They were going back to Orlando the day after tomorrow. She was quite nervous about seeing AJ’s mom again. She had been on tour a few times. But they hadn’t been able to talk or see one another. She was mostly there to do business. Even AJ had complained of not seeing his mother all that much. Jesykah was taken from La-La land by AJ wrapping his arms around her waist.
"Go get on the bus. You don’t know how long this meet n’ greet is going to feel." He said.
Jesykah knew what AJ wanted by what was poking at the back of her leg.
"AJ, hun, we can’t do this." She said, turning around to face him.
"Oh come on Jess. You can’t leave me hanging."
"AJ, you are anything but hanging." Before AJ could respond she was out of earshot.
"Damn!" AJ swore under his breath.
"What’s wrong AJ?" Brian asked, coming up and putting a hand on his shoulder.
"Ummm...nothing. Come on. Let’s go do the Meet ‘N’Greet."
"All right." Brian said, AJ following behind him slowly.
~*~After the Meet ‘N’ Greet~*~
"AJ! What is wrong with you?" Kevin asked.
"Nothing!"
"You weren’t yourself and you still aren’t. Now tell us what’s wrong." Kevin demanded.
"Nothing. And even if there was something wrong it’s none of your business."
"It’s our business when it effects our fans!" Nick spat.
"Well, I’m sorry for not being Mr. Cheery tonight all right? See ya later. I’m going to talk to Jesykah. AJ found Jesykah reading a magazine in her bunk with her headphones on. He gently touched her shoulder and she removed the headphones. "Hey." He said, kissing her softly.
"Hi, baby." She said returning the kiss.
"Can I?" he said, referring to the spot next to her on the bed.
"Of course." She said moving over a little more.
Jesykah continued reading making little notice of AJ. He rolled over on his side so he could stare at her. After a little bit of staring he kissed her neck.
"AJ..." she said pushing him away.
"What?"
"It’s nothing, just stop all right."
"If it was nothing then why are you telling me to stop?"
"Because AJ, I know what you want and I’m not ready to give it to you. I don’t care if we make out…I mean we do THAT all the time," she chuckled slightly. "But, I mean I don’t want it to go past that."
"I understand. If I promise not to let it go past that will you give me a kiss?"
"Hmmmm...maybe." she said.
"Okay, I promise not to let it go past that. I respect your decision and I’ll wait forever for you."
"I know you would, and that’s why I love you."
"Aww...honey I love you too." AJ rolled over slightly and gave her a kiss.
She kissed him back this time and wrapped her arms around his neck. They made out for a little while before both of them fell fast asleep.
~*~The Next Morning~*~
I woke up before Jesykah did and decided not to wake her. When I went out to get something for breakfast Kevin was out there.
"Hey AJ."
"Hey Kev."
"AJ, truthfully, what was wrong last night?"
"It’s Jesykah. Well not her personally but,…" I stopped.
"But what?"
"She’s not giving me any."
"Is that all you can think about AJ? Sex?" he asked.
"Well, no, but Kev you gotta remember I’ve never been this long without any!!! My body is not used to this." I said.
"AJ, that’s one more reason I have to respect Jesykah. The girl has morals."
"Yeah...but what about me?"
"AJ, stop being so selfish and think about your girl!"
"I am...but I’m thinkin’ bout me too. Hmmm...I wonder if Amanda is home."
"AJ you wouldn’t dare."
~*~Jesykah’s POV~*~
I heard the whole thing!! What a rat! That asshole. I’m sorry if I’m not like Amanda. I pulled out my suitcase and started putting things in furiously. When I was done I went out and saw that Howie, Brian, and Nick had joined Kevin and AJ.
"Bye everyone," I said.
"Where the hell are you going?" AJ asked.
"As far away from you as I can. Next time we stop I’m gone." Just then the bus stopped. "I guess that’s my cue. Bye everyone. Oh yeah, and AJ, I hope Amanda’s home."
And with that Jesykah was gone from AJ’s life again.
