Shell was standing on the front porch, playing with the ends of her purple dress before glancing up at the doorknocker. She didn't know if she was pregnant or not yet but she just wanted to see him.
She finally reaches up and knocks on the door, shifting around slightly on her high heels before waiting a few seconds. Many times she stood on someone's doorstep and many times it either ended horribly or on a good note. Most were bad though. Shell was hoping that this wasn't one of those times.
After a few more seconds she turns around as she mentally kicked herself, before tossing her brown curls over her shoulder and sitting down on the stoop. "Good job Shell, just what you need..." she mutters softly to herself as she untied the ribbon out of her hair and let her curls fall around her face. [/size] |

[/b] He shrugged lightly. Placing the papers onto his desk as he pushed his chair away and stood. One hand ruffling up his hair and the other in his pocket Jack walked slowly over to the door, he was in no rush. Bitting his lower lip again, his hands un-did the lock and pulled back the door. To find a girl on the steps with long lush brown hair playing with her curls. He looked at the figure for a moment, a smile creeping onto his lips. Mrs. Slayter.. He thought with a smirk.[/ul][/size] |

Shell sighs, ready to stand up and apparate back home but she heard her name and a slight grin appeared on her face. She knew he couldn't see it but she let it fade before turning around with a straight expression instead as she looked up at him.
"Ah, so you are home. Well I guess I'll go now. But first, do you like my natural hair?" she asks in a teasing manner, twirling around slowly as the purple dress swirled around her frame as well before Shell met with his green eyes again. "I'll assume you're busy with something as usual, so I'll see you later." she teases him again.
Shell wasn't going to leave, but she always loved playing the game of cat and mouse. It was just her style in a way she guessed but it was always fun to play. She winks up at him before turning around again and slowly walking away from Jack and down the first step of the landing. [/size] |

[/b] He told her in a sappy voice teasing her slightly. "I can always make time for you babe" Jack teased her again, as he leaned against the side of the door frame crossing his arms. "Well why did you come here If your just going to go away?" Jack asked her with a smile. Standing still Jack watched her walk down the first step. "So you don't want to come in or anything do you?" Jack asked her, with another smile. For some reason Shelby always made him smile, which annoyed him alot.[/ul][/size] |

Shell grins to herself again stopping in midstep down the second stair before turning around like she did before but this time with a smirk of her own. "Well, I could for a few minutes I suppose." she grins up at him before giving him a light hug.
"Is your wife home?" she asks with a smile still, but it was nothing compared to her former grin. "I don't want to intrude is all. Rather just let it be you and me. I'll get jealous if she was here and I stayed." she says softly, placing her hands on either side of the doorframe with a light giggle as a few her curls fell into her eyes but they were so contrasting they were still visible through the dark locks.

[/b] He said, walking into the house and holding onto the door, with a grin. "No. It's just you and me. Bella took the kids out for the weekend to her mothers. I had to stay here for work."He told her. But seeing you, gives me a better reason to stay he thought. Pushing the door closed as she walked in.[/ul][/size] |

Shell grins walking in and looking around. It was far nicer than anything she had at home. "So, you're a workaholic as well? Let me guess. Bella doesn't like that fact that you are. No one I've ever been with enjoyed that either." she shrugs and looks up at him again.
Hearing his thoughts again, she had to laugh. "Now, did you purposely stay to work here in hopes of seeing me? I know you can do your work with the family or anywhere. It's just in a different place is all." Shell says before sitting down on the couch with a light smile at him. [/size] |

[/b] He told her walking closer to wards her. A small chuckle escaped his lips. "Of cause not, just wanted to stay home for once is all. Seeing you is a bonus." He told her. [[Not long sorry ;D]][/ul][/size] |

Shell nods, understanding what he meant by that. "Same for my kids." she smiles glancing around the house again. "So, what are you working on? Essays or just an assignment?" she asks tilting her head to the side as she leaned her head on the back of the couch smiling lightly. "It's a bonus huh? I'm guessing it's a good bonus then?" she asks with a light smile as she tried to make her curls stay out of her eyes but it didn't work too well. It was the reason why she always tied her hair back into a bow. It was the only way to get to stay out of her blue eyes.
[[ It's okay.  ]] [/size] |

[/b] He told her with a smile, sitting down onto the sofa. His hand ruffing up his hair as he move it away from his eyes. "Well yeah I suppose you could be a good bonus." Jack teased her, with a small laugh his tougne licking along the top of his teeth.[/ul][/size] |

Shell nods lightly before shrugging a bit. "I try to get my own work done but still with a great quality. You know I ran into Bella a few days ago. She didn't even know what you teached. Sometimes I wonder if she's a good match for you." she says shrugging her shoulders a bit again.
"You suppose. Well, I suppose it's better than not being a good bonus." Shell laughs a bit, watching him some before standing up and walking into the kitchen. "May I have a glass of water or maybe a soda?" she calls back to him before looking around to see where the glasses might be. [/size] |

[/b] Jack told her with a small smile. "And why isn't she a good match for me?" Jack asked her. "Well you can be a bonus but you can be a other things as well." He teased again, walking after her into the kitchen. Looking into the fridge Jack said. "We have tins of coke and seven up. Or there is cold bottled water in her as well?" Jack told her looking round to her a little.[/ul][/size] |

Shell shrugs lightly again. "I just don't. She's too serious and a goody goody. You're just so opposite than her." she sighs deciding to drop the subject all together. It wasn't her place to say anything anyway.
Shell turns around and walks over to the fridge, bumping Jack out of the way with her hip taking a coke. "Thank you love." she says softly before popping the can open and taking a sip before looking up at him with a smile. "So, how have you been? You haven't told anyone have you?" she asks a frown. [/size] |

[/b] He asked curiously. Jack chuckled slightly leaning onto the counter as he was pushed out of then way. Jack smirked at her when she said thank you then replied. "I've been good a bit curious, but good, and now that Bella is pregnant it's a bit scary. Do you know yet?" He asked her looking down a little.[/ul][/size] |

Shell thinks for a moment before getting up and leaning over him with a light smile. "I think you know love." she whispers lightly before she walked into the kitchen.
"No, I don't yet. It's only been a few days." she whispers, thinking that the baby could possibly be Draven's as well now. "Yeah, I heard that she was. She was stocking up on chocolate frogs." she says shaking her head lightly before taking another sip and setting it on the counter next to him as she stood infront of him with a smile. "So, I've noticed you've been able to keep your thoughts more to yourself now." Shell laughs a bit as she tries to shake her curls out of her face, but failing. [/size] |

Shell smiles lightly. "You mean her right? What if I am, what would you want it to be?" she asks moving forward a bit as his arms went around her waist. "I've noticed hun." Shell whispers again, smiling a little more as her aquamarine eyes shined from the sunlight coming in from the windows. [/size] |

Shell laughs a bit, shaking her head. "You and boys... I guess that would be nice another little boy. Only have three out of eleven." she adds, shaking her head again. Shell's eyes widen a little hearing his thought. She wasn't expecting that. "Jack, I. I ummm." she whispers, but turns around and walks a few inches away from him. Shell had no idea what to say to him about that. Not a clue. [/size] |

[/b] Jack laughed again. Watching her reaction Jack nodded. "Yeah. I sort of worked it out last night, but I'm not sure.. So don't get you hopes up to soon" Jack teased her once more. Pushing himself off of the counter.[/ul][/size] |

Shell turns around and looks up at him feeling a few tears run down her face. "What is it then? Am I just a fuck buddy or do you really honestly care about me Jack? Do you really love me enough that you would leave Bella?" she asks sliding down to the floor before looking at the space in front of her before feeling a few more tears fall from her eyes. Shell always ended up in this situation and she hated it more than anything. [/size] |

[/b] He said almost in a shout. Turning round he looked straight ahead, not seeing her he raised an eye brow looking down to the floor. "Your the one who said that it was just a one night stand. Just a few night stands. That was your choice not mine, I love Bella and you love Draven. So why are you crying Shell?" Jack asked her, moving closer to her. Kneeling in front of her.[/ul][/size] |

Shell glances up at him before frowning tremendously, "Maybe I don't love Draven. What if I'm in love with someone else Jack? What about that?" she asks shaking a little as she put her hands up to her eyes to try to hide her tears. "And don't you play the innocent card Jack. I asked you if it was a one night stand or not and you're the one that said more than one." she whispers, still shaking a bit as she glanced up at him again. [/size] |

[/b] Jack asked her with a small frown. Bitting his lower lip gently Jack replied. "Well we haven't done any thing else have we so it has only been a one night stand, I'll take full responsibility, If you really didn't want it to happen." Pulling away a little, his face filled with breathlessness.[/ul][/size] |

Shell sighs, closing her eyes a bit. "I did love him... or so I thought I did. I'm afraid of being alone. It's pathetic of me but I need someone to love me for me." she whispers, meaning the whole Rubalyn side of her. Jay wasn't too thrilled about it and neither was any of her husbands for that matter. "You don't get it do you? I think I'm in love with you Jack. I'm almost sure of it." she whispers again before leaning forward and kissing his cheek lightly. [/size] |

Shell laughs slightly, shaking her head. "Draven was missing for two months. Just a week after we were married. Who knows what he did... As for Jay, he was never home neither. Always off at work twenty four seven. I'm just a trophey to everyone Jack." she whispers, biting her lip at what he said. "Because you understand me. You don't only like me for what I look like. You like my mind and everything else." she nods glancing at him with a frown. Shell watches him for a few more moments before standing up and walking back into the living room to lay down on the couch. Good job again Shell. Open your heart for it to get shattered. [/size] |

Shell sighs, closing her eyes a bit. "I don't know Jack. After all you love Bella, not me." she calls, glancing around the other sofa to see if their was a blanket or something to cover her. "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry..." she whispers, but she knew he couldn't hear her. [/size] |
