Evolve (Soulmates Book 4)

by Dykes, Nicole

  “Jackie, you don’t have to.”

  She grinned and said, “I know.” before slowly taking me into her mouth. I let out a soft moan, trying to keep it together, but the feeling of her warm mouth wrapped around me was incredible. She increased her pace slightly taking me in and out of her mouth and paying special attention to the very sensitive tip.

  I ran my fingers through her soft hair and it didn’t take long before I felt my whole body tense, “Jackie, I’m going to come.”

  She didn’t stop and in fact sped up a little until I felt myself explode into her mouth.

  She stood up and sat next to me as I pulled my underwear and pants back up and looked over at her. We sat next to each other on the couch and I tried to get my breathing under control. She looked over at me shyly, “Was that okay?”

  I laughed and turned my head toward her, “Yeah that was fucking amazing.”

  She looked happy, “Good.”

  My face turned serious, “Not that I don’t appreciate it, because I do for damn sure, but you really didn’t have to do that.”

  “I know I didn’t. I did it because I wanted to.” She got a really big grin on her face and continued, “I didn’t do it because I thought I had to or you would leave me. I did it because I was turned on and wanted to do it. And it felt awesome.”

  I shook my head, “I think it felt way more awesome for me.”

  She gave me a quick kiss and as much as I wanted to reciprocate the pleasure, I knew that’s not what she wanted in that moment. So I just held her close to me. “Hey Jackie?”

  Her voice sounded like she was lost in thought, “Yeah?”

  “Will you be my date to the prom?”

  She sat up a little and looked at me, “We are all going together, silly.”

  We had all made plans at lunch the day before to go in a big group and rent a limo. I knew that Jake just wanted to ask Maddy to prom, but was too scared.

  “Yeah I know, but I still want you to be my official, although secret, date.”

  She grinned at me, “Of course.”

  Chapter 14

  Jackie

  The following Saturday was prom, the plan was to meet up at Maddy’s house before we all went to dinner. I was in my room still getting ready when my mom knocked on my door.

  I was putting on lipstick and staring into my large mirror when I said, “Come in.”

  She opened the door and walked in with Andy following behind her. She had a huge grin on her face, “Someone special is here for you. You didn’t tell me you had a date to the prom.”

  I looked at Andy surprised to see him and then back at my mom, “I don’t.”

  “Mmm hmm, well it sure looks like a date to me.”

  Andy was dressed in a tux that fit him perfectly and had some type of product in his hair that gave it a sexy tousled look. I could barely concentrate on my mom and brushed her off, “We are just friends, mom, and don’t you have somewhere you have to be?”

  She looked at her watch, “Oh damn, I do. Well you two have fun.” She winked and brought a slight flush to my cheeks, there was always some type of innuendo with my mother, and then she finally left the room.

  When she was gone I walked over to Andy, “What are you doing here? We are supposed to meet at Maddy’s”

  He smiled and held out a box with a beautiful dark pink corsage in it. “I had to see you before to give you this.” He opened the box and I held out my wrist.

  He slipped it on my wrist and I admired the beautiful flower, “Thank you. That’s so sweet.”

  He looked at my hot pink dress. It only went to mid thigh and hugged my curves. I had liked the way it made me feel before, but when Andy looked at me in it I loved it. “You look beautiful, Jackie.”

  I smiled. “Thank you. You look pretty good yourself.”

  “So are you ready to head to Maddy’s?”

  I looked into the mirror and checked my hair and makeup and then turned back to him, “Yep.” I thought about it for a second, “Oh wait, no not just yet.”

  He sighed, I kinda had a reputation for taking a long time to get ready, “Jackie, you look perfect. Not one hair is out of place.”

  I walked over to him so that our bodies were almost touching. I stood up on my tip toes and wrapped my arms around his neck bringing him down to me and kissed him.

  I felt his lips turn into a smile before kissing me back. At that point I could have skipped prom and stayed there with him for the rest of the night, but he pulled away slowly and looked at me, “Although I would rather do that all night the smart thing would probably be to go to Maddy’s right?”

  I nodded and we went over to Maddy’s in separate cars. Everyone was there already. Maddy’s parents took our pictures and then we went out for dinner and afterwards the dance. We all mostly sat at a table by ourselves and talked. Paul and Shelley danced several times with each other and even Jake and Maddy shared a couple of dances.

  After we had been there for an hour Andy stood up and walked over to me at my spot at the table. “Jackie, you wanna dance?”

  He had a cocky grin on his face and before I could answer Michelle said, “No, don’t do it. You’ll catch something.”

  I rolled my eyes, “You can’t catch anything from dancing Michelle.”

  We all laughed and Andy flipped Michelle off and I stood up, “I would love to.”

  We went out to the dance floor and he put his hands on my waist and I cautiously put my arms around his neck as we swayed to the slow song. We kept a respectable distance between us, even though it was killing me and I was tempted to lay my head down on his shoulder. I looked at Andy, who still had that grin on his face, “That was kinda risky wasn’t it?”

  He shrugged, “Not really, just two friends dancing at their Senior Prom. No big deal.”

  I laughed, “How are you so confident?”

  “How are you not?”

  I shook my head and he pulled me in a little closer. As we danced, he whispered into my ear, “You are beautiful inside and out, don’t ever let anyone tell you any different.” I smiled and wanted to hold onto that moment for forever. There was no one in my life that ever made me feel as special as he did.

  Andy

  There was no part of me that wanted to let go of Jackie when the song we were dancing to ended, but somehow I managed to. We went back over to the table our friends were sitting at.

  It wasn’t long after that when we all decided to go out to the lake house for the after party. When we got out there we all changed out of our formal wear and met back in the kitchen.

  I smiled when I saw Jackie had changed into a short jean skirt and a pink tank top. She looked sexy, but I tried to hide my need for her and grabbed a bottle of tequila. I got shot glasses and poured one for each of us and passed them out.

  When everyone had a shot in their hand I held mine up and looked directly at Jackie when I made my toast, “Here’s to a badass senior year and everything to come.”

  We all took the shots and I watched Jackie grimace from the sting of alcohol. After that we all pretty much stayed with each other drinking and talking about the next year. It was hard to believe that we wouldn’t all be together all of the time. I remember thinking I was even going to miss Michelle.

  Then it all went to shit in an instant when Ryan, the guy Maddy dated right after me, surprised us all when he showed up.

  The argument that ensued was fast paced and confusing, but apparently Maddy and Ryan had hooked up on New Year’s Eve, the night Jake and I got into it over him fucking Maddy.

  I felt a pang of guilt because Jake would have been at that party if we wouldn’t have gotten into a fight.

  The one I felt the most sorry for was Jackie though. Apparently no one told her about anything and she was clueless that one of her best friends wasn’t a virgin anymore and in fact had slept with two different guys. I watched the hurt spread on her face as she realized, Michelle and I knew, but no one had told her.

  Of course
Michelle had made it worse when she told Jackie that Maddy didn’t tell her because quote, “Maddy knows you have a big fucking mouth. She didn’t want anyone to know.”

  I glared at Michelle and Jake left after telling Maddy that it was over between them. Michelle of course tried to comfort Maddy, who walked off toward the bedrooms.

  We all stood there frozen for a bit, trying to figure out what the hell just happened. Shelley cleared her throat, “Wow. Did that just happen?”

  Jackie looked upset and without saying anything headed out the front door of the lake house. Michelle watched her leave and said, “Shit. I’ll be right back.”

  She started to follow her, but I stopped her, “I’ll go. I think you did enough.”

  She glared at me, “What the fuck did I do Andy?”

  “You treated her like she wasn’t worth enough to tell her. Aren’t you guys supposed to be friends?”

  “We’re better friends than you’ll ever know, but everyone knows Jackie can’t keep a secret. Don’t tell me how to be a friend asshole.”

  She had no idea how well Jackie could keep a secret. “Oh yeah, telling her she has a big fucking mouth is being a great friend.”

  “Fuck you.”

  “Yeah, fuck you too. I’ll go talk to her.”

  I didn’t give her a chance to argue with me and headed outside to find Jackie. Michelle luckily didn’t follow me. I had had enough of her shit.

  I walked outside and my eyes immediately found Jackie. She was standing out on the dock. The same dock that we had her birthday dinner on. I walked down the end of the dock, where she was standing. “Hey.”

  She looked pissed, “So you knew?”

  I kept my distance, “About Jake and Maddy, yes but not about Maddy and Ryan.”

  “Since when?”

  “He told me New Year’s Eve, before the party.”

  She folded her arms across her chest, “That’s why you were pissed at him that night?”

  “Yes.”

  “Because you are still in love with Maddy?”

  I decided to be completely honest with her. “I thought I was then, yes, but I think I realized that night that she was never mine. She was always his. I think I was infatuated with her, but I saw her differently after that night.”

  “So you don’t still love her?”

  I shook my head, “No. I do not love her.”

  “Why didn’t you tell me? Was it the same reason as Michelle?”

  “No. She shouldn’t have said that. I didn’t tell you because I guess I didn’t feel like it was my place to tell you and I assumed Maddy would have. I honestly didn’t spend a ton of time thinking about it after that night.”

  Her expression softened and she uncrossed her arms, dropping them to her sides. “I guess I can’t be too mad. I mean I’m keeping a secret from them. And I guess it makes sense that you didn’t tell me.”

  I laughed and moved a little closer, “You can be pissed if you want to. They should have told you. And I should have also. From now on, I will. No secrets between us.”

  I pulled her closer to me and wrapped my arms around her waist. “Can I ask you a question?”

  She smiled up at me, “Yes.”

  “Were you upset because you are still hung up on Jake?”

  She shook her head quickly, “No, not at all. I haven’t really felt that way about Jake for a while now. Maddy can have him.”

  “Yeah I don’t know if they are gonna come back from this one. He was pretty pissed.”

  “Yeah.”

  “Well I’m sick of talking about them.”

  She grinned, “Me too.”

  She pulled me down to her and kissed me softly. “Thanks for being my prom date.”

  Our lips were almost touching, when I whispered, “Someone might see.”

  She smiled and said, “I don’t care”, before kissing me again.

  We spent the rest of the night laying together out on dock and watched the sun rise in the morning. Shortly after that I dropped her off at Maddy’s house to get her car and then went home.

  Chapter 15

  Jackie

  Despite all of the drama on prom night it had ended up being a great night for Andy and me. Monday at school I saw Michelle first thing and she actually looked a little hesitant to talk to me at first. We were walking to class when she stopped us both, “Look, I’m sorry for what I said Saturday.”

  I raised my right eyebrow at her, this was weird, Michelle never apologized, “You are?”

  “Yes. I mean it was harsh. I was worried about Maddy and I was a bitch to you.” She took a deep breath, “And I’m sorry.”

  I couldn’t hide the surprise, “It’s okay.”

  She shook her head and we kept walking, “No it’s not. Andy pointed out to me that I was a total bitch.”

  “Andy did?”

  “Yeah he was pissed. I mean really pissed.” She stopped walking again and turned to me, “There’s nothing going on between you two is there?”

  I stopped and swallowed hard. Michelle was like a human lie detector. “We are friends, really good friends.”

  She studied me, “Just friends?”

  I started walking again, “Yeah, we’ve gotten a lot closer this year, but yes just friends.”

  Ugh. I hated lying to her, but I just didn’t want her opinion yet. Luckily she dropped it and we continued to class.

  I didn’t talk to Maddy until the next day, she was definitely in a funk over Jake the day before. As crazy as it was to be upset with her when I was hiding a relationship with Andy from her, I was hurt that she didn’t tell me about Jake.

  I saw her as she was walking out to her car after school and caught up to her. She looked over at me as she was getting her keys out. “Hey, Jackie.”

  “Hey, how are you?”

  “Not great. I’m sorry I haven’t talked to you since prom. I’ve been in a terrible mood.”

  I shrugged, “its okay, I’ve been trying to give you some space.”

  She smiled a really weak smile. She was really upset about losing Jake. “I’m sorry I didn’t tell you. I just… I didn’t know what it was and Michelle she just guessed. You know her. She doesn’t miss a damn thing.”

  I laughed. “Yeah I know. It’s okay. I understand that you wanted to keep it to yourself.” I paused and then asked, “So you guys weren’t dating?”

  She shook her head, “I mean we never talked about it. We were having sex, but it felt like more. Then I don’t know. We never said that we were exclusive and it’s Jake so I thought maybe he was fooling around with other girls and Ryan was there and so sweet.”

  I knew that Maddy had really cared about Ryan and I actually felt bad for her. She had been torn between two guys and made a horrible mistake. “Have you talked to Jake?”

  “No he hates me again. He won’t answer my calls or talk to me at school.”

  “Well give it time Maddy, he will.”

  She smiled, “I hope so. I wish we would have just talked about it.”

  I nodded. “It’ll be okay.”

  We said our goodbyes and I headed home. The next week and half flew by and before I knew it we were all graduating from high school. I barely saw Andy since prom and had missed him greatly.

  Graduation night there was a party out at the lake house and I went with Maddy and Michelle. Andy drove to the party by himself.

  Maddy didn’t stay very long. Jake was being an ass and hooked up with Kelsey. After she left Michelle found a guy to entertain her and I led Andy to an empty room upstairs.

  He closed and locked the door so no one would walk in and question what we were doing together. I sat down on the bed and he sat down next to me. I smiled at him, “I can’t believe high school is over.”

  “Me either, it feels like it went really fast.”

  “It did.” I climbed onto his lap, straddling him, my favorite way to talk with Andy. I leaned down nibbling on his neck. “I missed you this week.”

  He sw
allowed hard and it made his Adam’s apple move up and down. I moved to that spot on his throat, kissing it and then kissing up his jaw line and to his mouth. I kissed him hungrily and he kissed me back like he had missed me just as much.

  I loved kissing him and loved the feeling of his arousal pressing into me through our clothing. I was unbelievably turned on, but something about what Maddy had said was nagging at me and I pulled back a little looking down into his beautiful eyes.

  I was still breathless from that kiss, “Andy…”

  His look turned from aroused to concerned, “What’s wrong?”

  I just blurted out, “I don’t want you sleeping with anyone else.”

  He looked surprised. “I’m not. I swear.”

  “I know. I just I mean… I don’t want to be with anyone else and I don’t want you with anyone else either. No kissing, no licking, no sex with anyone, but each other. I want to date exclusively.”

  He kind of chuckled at me, “I thought that’s what we were doing?”

  “We are. I just want to make sure that we are one hundred percent on the same page.”

  “This is because of Maddy and Jake?”

  “Yes. They didn’t know what the hell they were to each other and now it’s a huge mess.”

  He grinned and moved his hands up from my ass, where they were previously, and held my face in his hands. He looked deep into my eyes, “There is no one else for me Jackie. We are on the same page and dating only each other.”

  “Good.” I started kissing him again and he flipped me over so he was on top of me on the bed and in control. I let out a soft moan as he started kissing down my neck, driving me crazy.

  He sat up a little and removed my shirt. He threw it to the side and kissed my lips again. Parting my lips with his tongue and moving it inside my mouth. My body was begging for more and Andy obliged.

  He continued kissing me and then unhooked my bra and removed it and moved his mouth slowly down to my left breast. My nipples were already painfully hard and then he slowly circled one and then the other with his hot tongue.
