[TEDDY MUNROE]

Teddy smirked, his hands slipping into his pockets as he walked. Memories of the last few nights drifting through his mind. Hooking up with Oakley and his date with Ivy, as well as bumping into a few other ladies on his travels. He was really beginning to like Vegas. As long as no one got too attached to him - everything would be great.

But then there was the first problem. People getting attached. He had found Oakley's underwear under his bed that morning. Having forgotten they were even there. He had frowned at them for a moment before stuffing them at the bottom of one of his drawers. Was she getting attached? It didn't seem like it to begin with, but the morning after? She was almost...shy around him. Blushing even. Teddy couldn't have that. But then...she was hot, and a very good fuck. Maybe it wouldn't be so bad.

Making his way through the park he sighed, thinking of Ivy - was it a good idea to lead her on? Probably not. But then he wasn't intentionally planning to hurt her. Did that even make a difference? He rolled his eyes, sighing to himself again. He always got himself into these situations.

Planting himself down on an empty bench he pulled out some papers he had to mark, resting them on his knees as he pulled out a red pen. He smirked, thinking of the first time he had seen Oakley in his class room. He would have taken her there, if there wasn't that other girl in the room. God that girl knew how to push his buttons, in the best way possible. He was so engrossed in his thought, he didn't even notice someone sitting next to him.

[OAKLEY JAMES]

Oakley would never in a million years get attached to a boy after one night. Hell, getting attached after a million nights of hooking up wouldn't happen either. The poor girl was raised on the thought of temporary love, and she wasn't one to be smitten for a boy. Then why did thoughts of Teddy Munroe always find their way into her mind? Why was she always finding ways to walk by the music hall, to talk to him around campus, to chat on the college chatroom with him? She felt like she was in high school again. Well, no, she didn't feel this way about a guy in high school either.

Realizing this, for the last few weeks she had been avoiding Mr. Munroe. She didn't want to get attached to someone, especially not someone like him. He was the male bersion of her, commitment challenged. They would just hurt eachother. Sighing at the thought, the brunette looked down at her feet below her, away from the cute couple ahead of her that she was watching. How sickening. It only made her feel worse.

She was so caught up in thinking about Teddy, that she hadn't realized he was sitting right beside her. Jumping a little, upon first glance, she turned her head quickly away from him and pretended like she hadn't seen him. Shit Oakley, don't be a girl about this. Sighing heavily again, she slowly turned to him and snaked her arm around his neck before leaning over to whisper in his ear "Stalking me already?" with a wink following.

Teddy looked up in surprised when he realized the voice next to him was from the one person he had just been thinking about. He chuckled lightly when she asked if he had been stalking her. Indeed I have, he teased, smiling at her as he leant back against the wooden bench, But you make it very difficult when you vanish off the face of the earth for two weeks, he teased, referring to the fact she had been avoiding him.

He expected she probably assumed that he wouldn't notice. But he had. He had even tried ringing her a few times, but no reply. Even their text messages were getting more sporadic. Even the more...dirty...once that she had been quick to reply to in the beginning. You never did answer my question about the lacy underwear, he smirked, biting his bottom lip as he turned to face her again.

The smiled dropped slightly as he brought his arm up to rest on the bench, giving her the option to lean against him if she wished - he hoped she would, but he somehow doubted it. So where have you been? he asked, and eyebrow raised slightly, off seeing younger, more attractive guys?

"Yeah, I guess I've been pretty busy." she replied before thinking of a clever, more truthful answer. She hadn't been busy since that night. For some reason, people were distancing themselves from her, even Simon, her trusty friend with benefits. She knew she wasn't the nicest person in the world, but it almost seemed that Teddy was the only one who really liked her. Maybe that's why she'd been avoiding him. In a strange parallel universe, that made sense. Though she wasn't even sure if he really liked her, or if he just wanted to fool around. Normally that was okay with her, but right now she wasn't sure.

Pulling nervously at her skirt(that's odd), she laughed as she brought up the dirty texts from the few days after they did the naughty deed. At that time, she had planned not to text him back, just to make him uneasy. It always drove boys crazy when she cut them off after a hot conversation. Apparently it had worked. "Ah, well...I seem to have forgotten what the question was." she lied through her grinning, laughing a little at his expression, almost anticipating. "You, Uh, called me quite a bit. Were you trying to get your sweater back? I thought we had a deal!" she said before lifting a black pile of fabric off the seat beside her, indicating it she had taken it with her that day. It was almost an affectionate gesture, giving her feelings away a bit, but not quite. 

As his arm went around behind her, she hesitated for a moment. She could tell by his body language that he wanted her to be closer, but she was still unsure of her control. Biting her own lip she looked from his face to his arm and Slowly scooted into him nestling her head onto his shoulder. At first she wasn't feeling it AT ALL, but after a time it was sort of nice. 

As he asked her what she had been up to, she immediately felt at conflict. She wanted to ask him what was going on with them, she really did but she knew that was too soon, and he had taken a liking to the bad ass Oakley, not the confused one. Looking up at him, she smiled, shaking her head no. "Yes, I've been seeing other guys, but none of them quite met up with your good looks. A lot of them were from the gym. Meatheads..." she said, stopping herself from going on. She'd only really slept with one other guy and she couldn't even remember his name. Looking back at him, she removed herself from his body and leaned against the bench. "Heard you've been seeing other /older/ women, too. Hm?"

Teddy smiled at the girl, leaning back a little so his eyes could glaze over her whole petite frame. So she had been busy, eh? Teddy raised an eyebrow at her, a little confused. Had he done something to upset her? Was that why she had been avoiding him? He leant towards her again, resting his hand on her leg as she leant against his arm.

He chuckled when she mentioned the sweater, and his hand came off her leg to wave dismissively. No, I said you could keep it, he nodded, agreeing that they did indeed have a deal. Actually, I just wanted to see you again, he said, shrugging as if thought admitting that hadn't dented his pride slightly. But he wouldn't let her catch on.

He frowned, watching her sitting up. He chuckled lightly and, using a finger, hooked it under her chin and turned her towards him. Older woman, he began, There was only one. Leaning forward slightly he smiled, brushing his lips against hers but not actually kissing her. You're not jealous, are you? he teased, smiling before kissing the corner of her mouth.

Biting her lip almost to keep her from saying something really stupid, she kept looking away form him. Yes, she was upset with him! But, not for the reason like he did something to hurt her. He just conflicted her emotions. Why did he have to be this way. He was making it so hard for her to be the bitch on campus with him staring at her with that goofy but oh-so-adorable smile of his.

Feeling his hand on her leg, her back stiffened and she turned to look at it, almost contemplating if she should move it away in protest. Didn't he see he couldn't touch her like that? Of course, he had done it back in his car the other night, but then it was merely standard procedure to get the girl to sleep with you. Now, they were in a public place and they weren't even getting "intimate". SHit. He just wanted to see her again? Why, bro, why? "Oh, you did?" she said hesitantly. It was her turn to say she wanted to see him again, too, but in all honesty, she had been avoiding him because of that exact confession. Attachement was difficult. She didn't like difficult.

Wass she jealous of the professor he was supposedly seeing? Yes, of course she was. She'd never admit it, but she definitely was. Mrs. Michaelson was pretty, and they were from the same country, and on the chatroom, they were always flirting. It annoyed her to the core. As their lips brushed eachother, she laughed as if Teddy had made a joke instead of flat out telling him she was jealous. "Me? Jealous? It seems we don't know eachother well at all. Why would I be jealous? Not like we're dating or anything..." she said before allowing him to kiss her. Pulling back after a few moments, she smirked at him. "Should I be?"

Teddy smiled, kissing her quickly before getting to his feet extending his hand for her to take. You have no need to be jealous, I'm not dating her, and I probably won't see her again... he said, choosing his words carefully. He paused as she stood up, smiling gently at her. He didn't even know why he was doing this, he was a one night stand kinda guy. So why was he even hanging around.

It was then music began to play around the corner at the bandstand. Grinning he grabbed Oakley around the wrist and almost ran towards the sound, skidding to a halt just beside the bandstand where a band had set up so raise money for a place at the local recording studio.

He smiled as they set up, remembering when he did the same, when his bad was in the same position. When they began playing, Teddy realized they were only playing covers - obviously to get the most attention. Popular songs too, not really ones Teddy listened to, but he knew some of the words.

Hey, Oakley...did you want to see me again but was to embarrassed to ask? or were you really avoiding me? he asked, not really looking at her as he did.

[OAKLEY JAMES]

Laughing slightly as he reassured her, she waved it away like it was no big deal. "Well good, because I'm not jealous." she said raising an eyebrow at him, as if trying to get a reaction from him. She knew he cared only as much as she did, and he was just trying to get a reaction from her, but Oakley was not about to confess to him how she really was jealous. 

Suddenly without warning though, all of those thoughts sort of disappeared as he practically dragged her towards the bandstand. "Teddy, what the Fu-!" she said, but trailed off as she realized the band was playing one of her favorite songs. Humming quietly, she began looking away from him again, not really wanting him to hear her sing. Then he ask her a question. "Uh...well, I wasn't embarrassed...But Teddy, I did avoid you. I dunno. This is going to sound really annoying and cliche but I've never actually stayed until morning with a guy before and it kinda freaked me out. I didn't exactly know what I was supposed to-"As she talked, she was cut off by the band pointing at her from across the way, asking her to come join them. Laughing, she shook her head no, but the compelling crowd clapping in rhythm to encourage her made her change her mind. Walking up nervously to the area where they were playing, she took hold of the microphone and waited until it was time to jump in. "I heard that you settled down that you found a girl and you're married now..." she bean singing "Someone Like you" by Adele. At first her voice was shaky, but after al while it got better and by the time
She finished, everyone was clapping. Making her way back to Teddy after giving a few hugs to the band members , she blushed slightly and shrugged it
Off. "Sorry about that." he said, biting her lip. What would he think?

Teddy chuckled lightly and encouraged the girl onto the stage, his arms crossing loosely over his chest. He listened to her sing, the smile growing on his face a little as the crowd joined in with the chorus. He didn't. He opted to listen, his voice had never been the best and he knew it, though it hadn't stopped him from doing backing vocals a few times.

He applauded with the audience as she nimbly returned to him, he made a face as she approached him, as if he hadn't been impressed with her performance. His expression softened almost immediately as his arm slipped around the girl, No need to apologise, it wasn't that bad he teased, gripping her a little tighter when he realized there were people looking at her in that way.

Frowning a little he looked over her head, scowling at one of the band members who were pointed at Oakley still. He stopped almost immediately, noticing the way Teddy was looking at him. To the boy, Oakley was obviously spoken for, even though she wasn't. He softened his gaze and kissed the girl's head, loosening his grip and slipping a hand into hers. You don't have to do anything, with me, he said after a moment, a smile on his face, I'm here if you need, or want, me to be.

Looking away from Oakley he tugged on her hand and walked slowly away from the bandstand, So would you like to get a coffee? Or are you going to disappear on me?

[OAKLEY JAMES]

That bad? Her smile turned into a scorn and she let her her head upturn to look at him, her bottom lip protruding now. "That bad? Well, I'm never singing again for you then." she said, crossing her arms over her chest for only a few seconds before letting them swing back to her sides, just in time for him to pull her close. That was odd. It wasn't like an affectionate squeeze, more of a territorial one. 

Looking over towards the bandstand she saw the guy pointing at her. Ohh, would you look at that. Teddy Munroe getting his feathers ruffled by a little musician. Laughing a little, but doing her best to conceal it, she let him lead her away with ease. She'd bring up that little scene he just made later.

As he brought up coffee, a smile crept onto her face and she lifted a finger to her chin, as if pondering whether or not she wanted to hang out with him. Of course she did, look at him. He was gorgeous, and she was obviously attracted to him. But, she was a game-player. She couldn't just act all hunky-dory over a date just yet. 

Mentally reminding herself this, she turned to look at the bandstand once more and gave a little wave to the guy looking at her. He was definitely not as attractive as Teddy, but he'd do well enough to make him jealous. "Coffee? Hmm, maybe. But I dunnoo, I might want to hit that Uh, lead guitarist up...." she trailed off, getting closer to him by pulling at his shirt towards her. "Like you said that one night, you know what they say about guitar players." she whispered, with a wink.
