J&B Story - part 104

A few minutes after Jax answers the door, he returns to his bedroom. Surprise hits Jax as he notices that Brenda is missing.

J: " Brenda! Where are you?"

The sweet sound of Brenda's voice slows Jax's racing heart to a few beats faster then normal.

B: "In the bathroom, I'll be right out"

A few moments later, Brenda strolls out of the bathroom, looking absolutely gorgeous in a short red dress.

J: "Wow! You look fabulous"

Brenda lightly kisses Jax.

B: "thank you, will you zip me?"

Jax maneuvers Brenda around in his arms & zips her dress.

J: "You smell so good"

Jax gently kisses Brenda's neck & shoulders, while wrapping his arms tightly around Brenda.

J: "I love you so much. I hate sharing you, especially with two people"

B: "Two?"

J: "Yeah. Miguel brought a date, SusanaMaria, I'm still not sure if that's one name or two."

Brenda laughs at Jax.

B: "I guess you were wrong about him"

Brenda twists around in Jax's arms & hugs him loosely. They share a kiss then both say, "we better go"

Out in the living room, Miguel & his "date" were sitting on opposite sides of the couch, until Miguel heard footsteps getting closer. At that time, he began moving closer to his date.

While Brenda talks to Susana & Miguel, Jax stares out the window.

J: "It's snowing quite hard, maybe we should cancel the reservations & eat here tonight"

M: "It was difficult to drive here"

B: "Do we have food in the kitchen?"

Brenda's question should have been a sign to Miguel & Susana that Jax & Brenda weren't very prepared to make a meal, but neither thought anything about it.

J: "Yeah, Jerry was here a few weeks ago & he always feels the cupboards & refrigerator"

Jax mumbles something that no one else but, Brenda can decibel.

J: {In a mumbled voice} "of course most of the meat is probably crocodile"

Jax turns & faces Miguel & Susana.

J: "Do either of you mind if we stay in this evening?"

S: "Not at all"

M: "It's fine with me"

J: "I'll go see what we have in the kitchen"

B: "I'll come with you"

As soon as Jax & Brenda are completely out of the room, Miguel turns to Susana Maria.

M: "Thanks for doing this for me"

S: "No problem, they're really nice"

M: "Yeah, they are"

S: "I can tell he's really in love with her, by the way he looks at her."

Susana stays silent for a moment as she finishes her thought <<the way I wish you would look at me just once>>

M: "She looks happy. Doesn't she?"

S: "Yes she does, she looks at Him the same way he looks at her. They look like they belong together"

M: "That's why I need you here. I got the feeling that they're a bit uncomfortable showing their love in front of me"

S: "Maybe because you're still in love with her" <<eventhough she moved on a long time ago>>

In the kitchen, Jax is sitting on the kitchen counter, Brenda's directly in front of him, standing between his legs. Jax's feet are connected, firmly around Brenda, his hands are massaging Brenda's back & shoulders.

B: "Susana's pretty, don't you think?

J: "She looks okay"

B: "Okay! You think she just looks okay?"

J: "I guess she looks nice, she's no where near as beautiful as you are"

B: "I wonder how long Miguel's been dating her form he never mentioned her to me."

J: "Does that bother you?"

B: "A little bit. Miguel has been such a good friend to me, but I haven't been a very good friend to him. I mean, he doesn't even trust me enough to tell me about his girlfriend"

J: "I don't' think she's his girlfriend"

B: "Of course she is"

J: "I don't think so. They looked a bit uncomfortable together. When she took his hand, he got this strange king of shocked look in his face"

B: "Does this mean we still can' touch?"

J: "He obviously brought her for a reason. I guess it's okay for us to touch, as long as we don't flaunt our relationship in front of him."

B: "For some reason just knowing I couldn't touch you made me want you more"

J: "I felt the same way"

Suddenly Brenda remembered the reason they went into the kitchen.

B: "What do we have to eat?"

J: "I don't know. Lets check , since that is why we came in here"

As Brenda & Jax search the cupboards, Miguel & Susana walk in.

M: "Can we help?"

B: "We're still looking"

J: "Neither of us cook very often, so we're not sure what we can make."

Susana who had been searching the cupboards, refrigerator & freezer, for any ingredients that could make a meal, finally came up with an idea.

S: "You really don't have much food, but you do have all the ingredients for salad & pizza"

Brenda, realizing that she was starting to get hungry & wanted to be able to eat the meal cooked, responded quickly.

B: "I can make the salad but"

J: "Don't look at me. Pizza is one of the meals I've trued to make but ruined everytime."

Miguel doesn't think twice about volunteering.

M: "I'll help with the pizza"

S: "I'll help you"

J&B: "we'll make the salad"

So the preparation of the meal began in a sorta reversal of roles, with the guests preparing the main course of the meal.
