\\You kidnapped me to protect me?// - Private

((I guess around...19ish?))

Jake sighed, nodding. "I guess. So, no old feelings are popping up, right?" he asked, despite her reassuring him. Getting Charisma's door open, he got in and started the car, waiting his answer.

((I was thinking maybe 20. 19's a little young to move in with a boyfriend. At least I think so))

She nodded. "None, my hearts all yours baby." She smiled. "Dustin is the one who left me when I was having lots of trouble with my disease. The pills I take now, as you know, messed up my hormones and he left when I needed him most."

((Eh, makes more sense))

Jake nodded, yawning. "Ok, good to know. He's a pussy apparently." he snickered as he drove off. Still, he couldn't help but feel threatened. They had only been dating for a while, he didn't want it to be ruined. "So, how was work?" he asked as he drove home.

She shrugged. "It was alright..." she said then sighed. "I have a dance I want to show you when I get home. I think you'll like it." They had been dating for a while and they wanted to move in together so a lot of the time, he stayed at her apartment or she stayed at his.

"Heh and I got a few lyrics in to go with that ballad." Jake said, smiling. He was the guitarist in his band, so far they had a few gigs, made decent money. Most of the time, they both were at his place since it was closest to the school.

She smiled. "The ballad you're writing for me?" She asked. She loved that he was a musician, he was always singing to her and playing for her.

"Yep, what else?" Jake asked, smiling. His apartment wasn't far from the school, it was just a few blocks down practically. A nice two bedroom and one bathroom plus kitchen and patio. Arriving to the parking lot, he stopped and got out, opening Charisma's. "Come on, first you can dance and then comes the rest of the ballad."

She smiled, getting out of the car. "The dance is still a work in progress. I'm still working on it." she said. It was a piece for a show she had to do. She had to choreograph a dance in 3 days. This was the first.

Jake chuckled. "I'm sure it'll be good. You usually have a good routine." he said as they went up the steps of the complex and went inside his apartment. He dropped his backpack next to the counter in the kitchen and sat on the couch in the living room. "You have music for the routine?"

She shook her head. "No music is allowed. It's a pure physical dancing expression." she smiled, going over to him and wrapping her arms around his waist. He was a good couple inches taller than her and she loved that. She liked when the man was taller than her.

"Ah, I forgot. Oh well." Jake said, smiling as she hugged him. "Is this supposed to be a dance? Cause I think I like it." he grinned, chuckling and kissing the tip of Charisma's nose. Being a few inches shorter, she just seemed even more cute. That's one cute thing of her from many.

She giggled and started to sway her hips against his. "This isn't the dance." She said, smiling up at him. Her smile was mostly Liberty, but, her eyes were all Craig, there was even a little bit of Howard somewhere in her looks. She was a beautiful girl. "I just wanted to hug you before I started dancing."

Well, with everything she inherited from the three, she was gorgeous. Jake especially liked her eyes. "Well heh, now I wanna learn how to dance. Teach me?" he asked, winking as he kissed her cheek. "Well, go on and tease me then." he said, letting go and sitting back on the couch and crossing his arms.

She smiled, raising an eyebrow at him. "If you want a teasing, I'll teas you." she said sensually but then started dancing the first part of her routine. Her hips swayed and she danced. As she did, a silly little smile formed on her face. It was obvious she loved dancing.

Jake watched, more entertained than teased. He knew she took her dancing seriously. He smiled, gazing at his girl dancing with such passion. As she finished, he clapped, getting up and hugging her tightly. "You're wonderful, you'll definitely do good this time." he said softly, nuzzling her neck.

She smiled, holding onto him tightly, letting him pick her up. She didn't weigh that much. She was a small girl as it was. "You really think so?"

Jake nodded, chuckling as he sat on the couch again, holding Charisma in his lap. "You should really see yourself when you dance. It's great." he said, rubbing her back. "So, ready for the ballad?" he asked, smiling.

She nodded, smiling. "Most definitely!" she said, sliding off his lap to sit cross legged on the couch.

Jake nodded, getting his guitar and sitting on a chair in front of Charisma. "Ok, here goes. I'm still figuring out lyrics.." he said as he began playing, closing his eyes and concentration on the music.

She brought her knees to her chest and listened to him. He put so much soul into his music, as much as she put into her dancing. They really were a perfect match and she loved him with all her heart and soul. When he was done, she smiled. "Jakey Baby, that was amazing."

Jake blushed a bit but smiled. "Thanks, Charisma." he said, getting up after putting his guitar down. He was usually an acoustic guitar player, never went beyond that. It was a simple instrument. Sitting beside her, he kissed her cheek. "So about that guy.....Who is he? I'm just curious."

"Dustin? He's an exboyfriend. I thought that he was the one, we were together for a few years. Then, I got that disease, or at least the effects started kicking in and I had to start taking those pills." she said, her knees still at her chest, it was how she sat most of the time. "They really screwed up my hormones for about 6 months, I was horney at all the wrong times and I would get pissed at nothing and then start crying over literally spilled milk. After about a week, he couldn't handel it and he left. I didn't hear from him until like, 7 months later. Even then, I was smarter than he was and left him before he could hurt me and leave me again." She shrugged. "He really is nobody to me."

As he listened, he already wanted to punch Dustin's lights out. Though, then again, he wouldn't know if he could handle that either. Better the ex than himself. Jake nodded, feeling a lot better about an ex coming back to her life. "Then I have nothing to worry about. Right?" he asked as he leaned in and kissed her softly.

"You have nothing at all to worry about." She smiled, kissing him back.

"Good. So uh, now that we're done with what we wanted to do....Wanna go out or something? Like a movie? Or maybe just lay in bed for the whole rest of the day?" Jake grinned, cuddling Charisma.
