On Ancient Ground

Come to my window

Anna went to the window and opened it up, standing back as Jackson slipped in. He sighed and brushed off his pants. "That was a workout to get up that tree". He pointed at the rough-looking tree that hung over the roof. It was old and one of the last trees in the neighborhood.

"Its a tree, not a ladder, what did you expect?" Anna covered her mouth. "Sorry" she closed her eyes and rubbed her forehead. "I am still confused is all. A little freaked out."

Jackson looked around the room. "Whoa, not what I pictured. But not far off."

Anna looked around. "Sorry."

Jackson smiled. "Why are you sorry?"

"Sorry." Anna rubbed her arms. "Sorry, I say it a lot when I am nervous. Sorry."

Jackson took a few steps towards her until he was standing in her space. He put his hands out to her arms and slid his hands down her arms to her hands. This untangled them from the way she hands them crossed and made Anna shiver.

Jackson looked at her. "Are you cold?" Anna shook her head.

"I am, I just, tell me again whats going on?" She asked him. But before she knew it he had pulled her toward him and planted his lips on hers. She closed her eyes, stiffened at first but then melted. His arms knew what to do and they supported her by the waist and back, tightening gently. She felt tingly all over. And then he pulled back.

"I am sorry, I just wanted to do that all day." He said and looked at Anna. She looked almost dazed by it all. He started to release her back slowly when she pulled him forward and planted her lips back firmly on his.

Anna didn't know what this was but it was electric. She never felt this in her life. It was like they needed to be together and connected. She wrapped her arms around his neck and tightened her body to his. Jackson didn't say know, he rubbed his hands up her back and returned the embrace.

Anna pulled back finally and put her hands on his chest. "What was that?" She said out of breath.

Jackson smirked, happy with himself. "I would say that means you like me too."

"You have to go..." Anna said touching her lips with one hand and keeping her other on his chest.

"Why?" Jackson looked confused, almost hurt.

Anna looked at him and finally pulled away. "It is going to go too far if you stay. I... I do like you. " She stumbled on the words.

Jackson took a step towards her. "What do you mean too far?" And in that moment they were tangled up in each other again. Lips locked, hands no longer just tightening in an embrace but exploring each other's bodies. "Jackson." Anna let escape her lips as she tried to break between them. This just made Jackson want her more and he kissed down her neck. She moaned out loud and he pushed her onto the bed. Then she pushed her hands against his chest as hard as she could and looked at him dead in the eyes.

"We have to stop. It's too much too fast." Anna tried to catch her breath.

Jackson nodded and laid on the bed beside her. "What was that?" He panted.

"I don't know but I think you should go. This isn't normal, is it?" Anna looked at him.

Jackson smiled. "I think it is every guys dream but I don't think for a first date it is."

Anna sat up. "This was a date?"

Jackson laughed. "Well, I don't know what else to call it."

Anna looked at him and felt a rush come over her again, and in one quick move, she was straddled on top of him. "I think you need to go now." Jackson nodded but his hands reached and held her waist and yet again they were making out. Each of them now rubbing up against each other, friction building between clothes. Anna let moan after moan escape her lips which led to Jackson gripping her tighter.

**Bang** The front door of the house closed. Anna shot up out of what she was doing and looked at Jackson. "Now you really have to go." She got off him and tossed him his shirt that had managed to get off during this escapade.

Jackson put it on. "Is that your parents?" He stood up putting his shoes back on.

Anna brushed back her hair from her face and took in a breath. "My dad, yes, and likely my little brother, and the last thing I need is for them to see me in my room with a hot guy."

Jackson grinned and pulled her toward him. "You think I am hot, huh?"

Anna pulled back and smacked his chest. "Jackson, go home." She walked over to see the window was still open. In her mind, she wondered if anyone had heard them while they were tangled in each other. She pointed at the window.

Jackson went to the window and got out and just before she was able to close it he pulled her forward into another kiss and whispered in her ear. "You are mine now." He smirked and was gone.

Anna closed her window just in time for her door to open and her brother to run in. "Anna, I won!" She hugged her little brother and he looked up at her. "You smell funny, like a guy." Anna looked panicked but replied.

"Um... must have been from the bus. Was pretty full today."
