Charming |Closed RP|

Riley stayed laying next to him for a moment longer and even with everything that'd just happened she couldn't help but smile right now. She hadn't even realized how badly she'd missed Carlos until now. Seeing him earlier that day had been great yes, but right now felt just like when they were in high school again. Here they were laying comfortably on her couch just like they used to. There was a bag of movies that they probably hadn't watched in a really long time and junk food that she'd probably stopped eating after she'd gotten with Jeremy and went through a phase where she hadn't wanted to gain all kinds of weight and end up not liking her own body. But it felt really good to just be laying here with a bag of movies and junk food like they were 17 again. "I just wanted you to know that I appreciate that."

Jax wouldn't say no to being there and being a part of his son's life, and he wasn't going to say no to being able to do fatherly things for his son that he'd already missed out on. He felt like he had a lot of catching up to do given the little guy was already two. He finally stood up from the table and went to pick the little guy up and rest him on his hip. "Bed time buddy." He said smiling at his son and turning take him to his room. "Can you tell daddy where your room is?" He asked smiling at the little boy in his arms. And it was adorable when he stuck out his tired arm and pointed towards his room, which Jax headed towards. Once he'd walked into the room he set him in his bed and took a seat next to it picking up a book close to the bed. "Story dada?" He heard Thomas said in his tired little voice and Jax just nodded his head. "Yea little man I'll read you a story." He said opening the book.

Juice looked down at her keeping her in his arms. He smiled at her cupping her cheek, "Anytime." He whispered lightly stroking her cheek with his thumb. He smiled down at her and kissed her forehead and smiled down at her. "I know it might not be the perfect time. But even though we're not in High School anymore. I still have those feelings for you. They never went away." He paused staring at her. "Seeing you today and being here like this. It feels so natural to me." He told her as he smiled at her.

---

Carter stood near the doorway watching Jax read the story to Thomas. She smiled seeing Thomas fall asleep as she slipped away and sat on the couch. She pulled the book into her hands and skimmed it over. She took and lent back into the couch remembering before the whole fight, and the shit that happened between her and Jax. They were literally the perfect couple. She smiled at the memories as she looked at the picture of her and Jax she had in her book. She smiled down at it hearing Jax's foot steps. She looked up seeing him walking from Thomas's room.

Riley couldn't hold back her smile at his words. "I feel the same way." She told him looking up at him. "Right now it feels like it did when we were 17. Like I never made the mistake being with someone else, and you never left. And I don't want that feeling to go away because I've missed this so much." She told him looking at him, "I've missed you." She whispered before leaning in to kiss him. She didn't know where it came from, or why all her emotions had to be bubbling over right now but they were and she was going to take advantage of them and just go for it. This was their second chance after all and she really didn't wanna mess it up by not taking a chance.

---

Jax finally tucked Thomas in when he saw that the little guy was asleep. He tucked the book back where he'd picked it up from and then quietly left the room. "He's asleep." He told Carter when he saw her sitting on the couch. "What'd you got there?" He asked her seeing that she had a book of some sort but he hadn't gotten a good enough look at it to be able to tell what exactly it was.

Juice slid his arms around Riley's waist and pulled her closer. He kept his lips to hers and smiled into the kiss. He pulled back and smiled at her. "It does feel like we're 17 again." He whispered to her. "I love this, being here with you. I don't want it to go away either." He told her. He cupped her cheek stroking her cheek lightly. He lent in and kissed her lips again. It was their second chance.

---

Carter looked at Jax smiling a little, "Just some little book." She smiled putting it down on her coffee table. She smiled at Jax nodding her head. "I'm glad you came over." She smiled pushing herself up off the couch. "It was nice hearing and seeing Thomas like he was tonight." She told Jax hugging to herself a little.

Riley made herself more comfortable and ended up straddling him while she continued to kiss him not wanting to break the kiss for anything. All her memories of kissing him at that party years ago didn't seem to be doing right now any justice. And she questioned how she didn't know that it was right back then when right now it felt right. She questioned herself on why she didn't just take a chance with him the first time around, and was going to consider them bot lucky that they were being presented with another chance they hopefully wouldn't fuck up.

---

"It was nice being here." Jax said biting his lip, he was glad she'd invited him over and that everyone had gotten satisfaction in him being here right now. "Thanks for dinner, and for being so forgiving even though I probably don't deserve it." He told her moving forward to kiss her forehead. Sure they hadn't really been affectionate with one another since she'd gotten back. And he knew that there had been a lot of hard feelings they both held towards one another as well, but he was trying to work past it all and he knew she was too. And that really meant something to him because he knew that he'd fucked up, and he was glad that she'd been able to forgive him.

Juice rested his hands on her hips kissing back. He adjusted himself a little and continued kissing her. He licked along her bottom lip wanting access to push his tongue into her mouth. Once he got it he wondered around and felt how good it was. He couldn't believe it was just like that party that night. He questioned himself on why he didn't just tell her that he liked her. Or why he didn't just make a move. If he had've maybe that bastard wouldn't had harmed her.

---

"It's in the past, Jax." She whispered lightly looking at him. She smiled cupping his cheek lightly as she stroked his cheek. "Like I said earlier today. No matter what shit happened that night, I forgave you a long time ago. Just took me a lot longer to realize where I belonged." She admitted to him pecking his cheek.

It really did feel amazing making out with Carlos like they were a couple of teenagers. She kind of felt like they'd missed out on a lot over the last 8 or so years of not being together. But at least they were here now giving this a chance. After a few moments she pulled away to breathe and rested her forehead against his and smiled. "I've really missed you."

---

"Yea." Jax said knowing she was right about it being in the past. "Well I guess I'm glad you finally realized where you belong." He said smiling and leaning in to give her a quick kiss. Even though they weren't together right now and he wasn't sure what would happen with them next it felt like the right moment to kiss her. Show that he still wanted her and would be open to giving it another go with her.

Juice smiled at her as he looked into her eyes, "I missed you too, Riles." He whispered against her lips. He admired her as he let his hands go to her lower back so she wouldn't fall off his lap. He smiled at her as he took and rubbed little circles on her back. "I'm glad the universe brought you here. So we could have that second chance." He admitted to her.

---

Carter smiled looking up at Jax as he kissed her lips quickly. She took and stepped and closer giving a little longer kiss and smiled. "I have no idea where this is going to go. Us." She paused staring into his blue eyes. "But whatever does happen, this time I won't run away from Charming." She assured him as she took and smiled a little backing up from her spot dead on him and smiling lightly. "We're here for good." She smiled at Jax.

Riley kissed him again quickly glad the universe had brought them together too. "Make you feel like all those sayings about true love are real." She said remembering so many times she'd hear people say things like if two people are meant to be together they'll find a way. Or that if you love someone you should let them go and if they come back it was meant to be and if they don't it never was or something. And there was even this story about a red string a fate she'd heard and how there was an end tied to both people who were destined to be lovers or something. It's like all those things felt kind of real right now because here she was with him again.

---

Jax smiled and held her face in his hands. "I don't know where this is going to go either." He said softly, and he didn't. He didn't know what would happen or how things would turn out this time around but whatever did happen it was happy to know she wouldn't run again. Honestly he wasn't sure he'd be able to handle that heartbreak over again. Because it'd been heartbreaking to find her gone, even if he'd pushed her away at the time. It'd just hurt him that he'd hurt her enough that she'd even want to think about leaving.

Nodding his head Juice agreed with her, "Like it was fated to turn out this way." He smiled at her keeping her close. "We were fated, I can tell or we wouldn't had ran into one another today." He told her smiling. He kept his arms around her admiring her. All those tales he'd heard about being in love and if fated and all, they were true considering this happening. He smiled at her as he kept her close. He wasn't going anywhere's this time, and he wasn't going to let her go anywhere's either. He'd protect her no matter what.

---

Carter stared up at him as she remembering the night when she left. All the heartache she'd went through. And knowing she'd probably broken Jax's heart. From what Opie and her dad had told her. She'd done damage to him just as he had done to her. She lent up kissing his lips softly, "Whatever happens, happens." She whispered to Jax.

Riley couldn't have agreed more. There was no way they weren't fated to be together. Because she didn't believe that the universe would be cruel enough to bring them together right now only to rip them apart again, sure she knew there were times when it was cruel but this wasn't one of those times. And she hoped it wouldn't become one of those times either. Because she loved him, maybe she hadn't told him yet and vise versa, but she knew she was. And she knew she always had been but she'd just been to afraid to tell him.

---

"Couldn't agree more." Jax told her nodding his head. Whatever happens happens. That'd seemed to become kind of like a catch phrase for him lately he felt like. He'd been saying it a lot, and thinking it a lot really too. But it was kind of true and a good thing to live by he supposed. At least if someone was okay with whatever happening though they'd be okay. Well if they were really down for whatever. It was kind of strange concept once he thought about it, but it was a good mind set to have about certain things he supposed.

[ Hun, I had no idea you'd posted in here I never got the notification I am so sorry ]

Juice kept his arm around her and kept her close this form. He kissed her head lightly and kept her close. No matter what, he was going to protect her. He took and glanced down at her, "Riley." He paused a second. "I want to do things right this time around. Between us." He stopped a second. "You know that I like you. And I know you like me." He looked at her. "I want us to be more than friends. The way we should've been when we were younger." Juice told her.

---

Carter nodded her head to Jax lightly and ran a hand through her hair slightly. She bit on her lower lip looking at Jax. She could tell he was in deep thought over something. "Um." She said breaking the silence between them. "If you don't feel like going to your place. You can always stay here, if you want too." Carter offered to him.

Riley pressed her forehead against his while she listened to him talk. And she didn't think she could've agreed more with what he said. "I'd like that." She told him kissing him lightly. "We should do things right this time around. It isn't like many people are given the amazing second chance that we've been given. And we'd be idiots not to take it." She said knowing that if she didn't take this chance to be with him like she should've done years ago and she ran from him or something stupid right now that she'd regret it for the rest of her life. And nothing would ever feel right again. Because nothing, and she really did mean nothing, felt as amazing and right as right now. Just sitting in his lap kissing him whenever she wanted.

---

Jax bit his own lip and nodded his head. "That'd be nice." He told her not really sure why it'd be nice to stay the night at her house, a house he hadn't been in in God knew how long. But it did seem like the right idea. Staying the night, being there in the morning when his son woke up. He was already going to be spending the day with the litte guy the next day anyways while she went off to get a job so he might as well stay the night and just be ready to go when they woke up in the morning. Things were still a little tense between them, he could feel it. They were a little awkward but he was really hoping that soon they'd be able to get over that hump and move forward from the awkwardness.

Juice smiled nodding his head, "I couldn't agree more." Juice smiled at her leaning in and kissing her lips again. This felt so right to him. He didn't want to be anywhere's else but here with her. It's where it felt right.

---

Carter gave a light smile, "So, um the guest room is right here." Carter smiled at Jax leading him back to the bedroom. She smiled and pushed the door open, "Clean sheets and all. There's a bathroom beside of it. So if you want to shower or whatever it's there." Carter smiled at him. "Do you want anything else to eat or drink?" She asked. She could feel the tension and the awkwardness between them. She hoped it'd bypass soon.

Riley smiled before she held his face in her hands and just looked at him for a minute. "We're gonna be one of those couples who makes out all the time aren't we?" She joked laughing a little. "Because I don't wanna end up like Lorelai and the like twenty guys she dated in high school, making out everywhere in front of everyone making everyone around her very uncomfortable." She said remembering how uncomfortable that girl had made her during high school with all her makeout sessions.

---

"Thanks." Jackson said nodding his head and deciding that he'd probably shower while he was here then. He wasn't sure when, but he'd probably take one before he went home. "No I'm good." He told her when she offered him anything else, he was good as far as needing anything went.

Juice shook his head at the memory, "No way." Juice grinned at her. "Making out every little bit that we can. But nothing like that stupid whore done in school." Juice shuddered at the memory and sighed. Juice grinned slightly, "I do have to admit though." He paused staring at her. "Having you hold my face in your hands, now that's a slight turn on." Juice teased her.

---

Carter nodded a little and smiled taking her book from the coffee table as she sat back down on the sofa. She took and opened it up seeing the picture fall out as she bit her lip reaching to grab it before Jax could but he got it faster. She looked at him and bit her lip.

Riley smirked at him still holding his face in her hands. "Is it really?" She asked in a whisper before she licked her lips. They were both adults here and fully capable of making their own decisions. Which included if they had sex or not. Which since they both wanted to start over and be with one another then clearly sex would happen eventually. And it wasn't like she hadn't thought about it before, because she most certainly had. "What about this?" She asked softly leaning back and slowly unbuttoning her shirt revealing her bra.

---

Jax had bent down and picked up the picture that it seemed Cater wanted to hide from him. He finally looked at it then back up at her for a moment before he opened his mouth to speak. "Is this..." He didn't even know how to finish what he was trying to say really. Just seeing the picture was making him feel a lot of different emotions, emotions that he wasn't sure he wanted to deal with right now.

Juice saw her bra and took a breath, "Holy fuck..." He muttered and stared at her chest a second. He took and lent up kissing her lips as he put his hands on her boobs. He took and rubbed them slightly. They were starting over. He seen no harm in taking and having sex with her. They were here, adults, and made their own choices.

---

Carter stood up taking the picture and lightly putting it back in her book. She bit on her lip, "Yeah it is." Carter said lightly. She looked at him telling by his expression he didn't want to go down the road of emotions. "I'm going to bed, Jax. Good night." She said walking past him and to her bedroom.

Riley moaned into the kiss while she undid the bra so she could take it off. Then she pulled away and rested her forehead against his one more time. She wanted him, she wanted to be with him in every possibly way. Every aspect she could. Because he was the one for her, that much she knew. Even if she'd let him go the first time around and might've thought for the last eight or so years that she'd never see him again she was with him now. And she knew just as well now as she did back then that he was the one for her. This time though she wasn't letting him go. And she didn't care how fast they moved, they were making up for lost time, plus she knew he wouldn't hurt her. No matter what he did with his life right now, even if he was part of a gang and he didn't want her to know, it didn't matter really. Riley knew that he wouldn't hurt her, or let her get hurt on his watch ever.

---

"Night." Jax said softly just letting her take the picture and put it back in her book. He turned to watch her walk down the hall to his room and ran his hand over his head sighing before deciding that it might be a smart choice for him to head to bed himself. And he'd already said he'd stay the night here so he'd stay the night here. Plus it was getting kind of late and he didn't really feel like heading home, so he was just gonna let the picture go. Not worry about it, and he certainly wasn't going to let his emotions go crazy right now. So he headed into the guest room and got read for bed.

Juice took and lent in kissing her lips as he laid her back on the sofa. He took and played with her boobs as he took and kissed on her neck sucking her sweet spot. He took and pushed his jeans and boxers off. He pulled back and took his shirt off and Riley's jeans and underwear. He lent back in kissing her lips again. He took and stroked himself a few seconds before pushing himself into her. He slowly started out before picking up his pace.

---

Carter sighed laying on the bed as she stared at the ceiling. She looked at the picture of them from high school. All she wanted was to be with him again. Be like old times. But she knew it'd never happen, or so she thought. She sighed rolling onto her side and laying the book on the side table. She closed her eyes trying to go to sleep. But she couldn't. She got out of the bed closing her robe around her. She tied it and walked out going into the kitchen. She flipped the light on and sat down at the table and sighed a little flipping through the photo album her dad had given her.
