SUMMARY: Set at the beginning of Series 4, though this isn't a reflection of what i think is going to happen in series 4! Katie offers JJ a deal, will it be to good to resist?
JJ just couldn’t stop staring, couldn’t stop watching her. Emily, Emily, Emily... Emily’s hair, it’s redder than it was before. Emily’s face, she’s smiling more than she was before. Emily’s breasts... Well, they’re the same as they were before, and he would know, because he’s seen them, and they’re lovely. Emily’s hand, intertwined with another, one that belongs to the tall blonde standing next to her. He knows he shouldn’t feel jealous, because she isn’t his and she never was. He knows he shouldn’t have feelings for her, because she made it clear from the start that it was just sex. He knows he shouldn’t think about her, because she’s gay and his friend, but all the same he just can’t stop.
“Stop perving on my sister weirdo.” Katie’s voice cuts through the silence, jolting JJ from his daydream, he looks up at what should be a carbon copy of the one he’s lusting after, but she isn’t. Her hair has changed too, it’s darker, they don’t look so much like twins anymore, the same eyes, but otherwise very different.
“I... I’m not, i’m not doing anything.” JJ blushes, surprised when the older twin sits herself down next to him. Watching her, he tried to work out her expression, it was sort of pained, and he knew it couldn’t be because she’d caught him lusting over Emily. Following her eyeline he suddenly spotted the source of Katie’s sudden distress, Effy.
JJ noticed Emily turn to check that Katie is okay, he always noticed Emily. JJ also noticed the way that Katie has suddenly closed the gap between them, shuffling on her chair so that she’s as close to JJ as possible, she looks scared, and he can tell she hates being scared of Effy.
“Shit... Fucking bitch.” Katie mutters, it’s an unconscious action, moving closer to JJ. She just needs to feel safe, and this makes her wonder exactly how she’s going to get through a whole day of school.
It was the first time Katie had seen Effy since the woods. There was a letter, it arrived in the holidays, Effy apologised, Katie hadn’t responded. She couldn’t find forgiveness in herself, nothing could make up for what Effy had done. Katie was still jumping at shadows, there was no way a letter could fix anything.
“Katie are you alright?” JJ asked, not really knowing what to do. Any physical contact would feel like he was breaking the boundaries of their nonexistent friendship, JJ couldn’t help wishing that Katie had chosen to sit next to someone else that morning.
“Fucking hell, just make me laugh or something. I don’t want her to think she’s got any kind of power over me.” Katie hissed, jabbing JJ in the side, Katie couldn’t help wishing that she’d chosen to sit next to someone else that morning.
“Erm... Why did the chicken cross the road?” JJ started, scratching his ear nervously. Recoiling as he felt Katie’s foot connect with his shin. “Ow! Why did you do that?!” JJ squealed.
“Because you’re fucking useless!” Katie growled, before breaking out into a loud burst of fake laughter, Christ if he wasn’t going to make her laugh she’d just have to do it herself, Katie thought to herself, just as Effy began to approach.
“Hi Katie.” Effy muttered, raising an eyebrow at Katie’s clearly fake guffawing, before feeling a hand on her shoulder pulling her back. It felt threatening, the kind of move Katie should have been making right about now, but instead Katie was cowering. Rather than feel empowered by this, Effy felt like shit, and turned to face whoever wanted to punish her.
“Get the fuck away from her. I mean it Effy.” Emily growled, surprising practically the entirety of their form group, quiet little Emily Fitch looked fierce, even Naomi looked a little surprised at her girlfriend.
“I’ve apologised Emily. What more do you want, blood?” Effy asked, her voice low, noticing how Emily’s normally warm eyes, looked so cold staring into hers. Effy tried to pull back, pull away from the angry redhead but Emily wouldn’t let go.
“I will do, if you ever touch my sister again. No-one wants you here Effy.” Emily spat, giving a brief supportive smile in Katie’s direction, before Naomi dragged her away.
“I’m sorry.” Effy muttered, closing her eyes, her heart racing as she wondered exactly what she was going to do. Spotting Panda in the corner of the classroom, she noticed her best friend patting the seat next to her, beckoning her to sit down. At least someone had been able to forgive her.
**
“What the hell was that? Ems you went fucking crazy back there.” Naomi hissed, pulling her girlfriend into the toilets, she glared at some year twelves who quickly scurried out. Muttering something offensive in their direction as they left, Naomi rolled her eyes moving back to Emily who was still balling her fists.
“Katie needs looking after, she’s a mess and Effy’s just strolling around like nothing’s happened.” Emily explained, still angry, she kicked at the cubicle door. Relaxing only when Naomi pulled her in close, kissing her forehead and stroking her hair.
“Let Katie fight her own battles Ems, we can keep an eye on her, but she needs to work out all this Effy stuff for herself. You going around threatening her isn’t going to help.” Naomi soothed, breathing in the smell of Emily’s hair. A familiar ripple of lust running over her, it had almost been a week since they’d been able to spend any time together privately.
Emily nodded quietly, turning her head up to meet Naomi’s gaze. Quickly finding her girlfriends lips, the gentle kiss soon turned passionate. The two tussled in a battle of tongues, completely forgetting their current location as hands began running through hair, desperation to press their bodies as closely together as possible. Naomi dropped her hands from Emily’s face, down to the sinks where she gripped on tightly just to steady herself.
“Oh fucking hell, not at school Emily!” Katie interrupted, clamping her hand tightly over her own eyes, as Emily and Naomi tried to prise themselves apart. Giggling, they tried to smooth their hair and straighten their clothes. Katie wasn’t too bothered though, she hadn’t been all summer really, not that she let Emily or Naomi know that. After all the resistance she’d quickly realised that Emily was far more fun to be with when she was happy, and Naomi made her happy.
“Sorry Katiekins.” Naomi laughed, walking out the bathroom to leave the sisters to talk to each other in private, winking at Katie as she passed, it was still hilarious to wind Katie up.
“Think she knows her buttons are undone?” Katie grinned the second Naomi was out of earshot, laughing at the image she had of Naomi storming down the corridor with her tits practically on show.
“Oh god, should I go and tell her?” Emily panicked, darting towards the door, feeling herself pulled back by Katie, who stopped her from leaving. Emily reluctantly decided to leave it, leaning back against the sinks.
“She’ll figure it out soon enough, anyway I want to thank you.” Katie smiled, taking hold of her sisters hand. A strange moment, one that never would have occurred a year ago, and yet here they were, completely different people.
“It was nothing Katie.” Emily dismissed, squeezing Katie’s hand in hers. “You’ll be alright you know K, I promise. Effy won’t ever hurt you again, I won’t let her.”
“You’ll be too busy with your girlfriend, to notice when the bitch comes running at me with a rock again.” Katie sighed, because despite everything, she couldn’t help but be a little bit jealous of Naomi taking Emily away from her. Katie found it strange, being without her favourite accessory.
“We look out for each other, girlfriend or not. I will always be here.” Emily promised, enveloping her sister in a tight hug, breaking apart only when the sound of the bell demanded they head back to registration.
**
It came to lunchtime, and Katie didn’t know what to do with herself. She certainly didn’t fancy being a third wheel, whilst Emily and Naomi ate each others faces for a solid hour, not even stopping for food. Pandora had chosen her side, she’d chosen Effy, so she wasn’t an offer for companionship either. There was Freddie, probably sat on the field smoking a spliff, but he was a twat and it would be far too awkward so that left him out of the running for potential lunch date as well. That left Cook and JJ, wandering to the canteen, she quickly spotted them, building what could only be described as a small castle out of fish fingers.
“Alright Kit Kat?” Cook beamed, knocking over a tower, much to JJ’s distress, who quickly set about rebuilding it.
“Are you playing with your food?” Katie asked, rolling her eyes and letting out an exasperated sigh, things really had got bad if she was stuck with these two for friendship.
“We’re constructing some medieval thing, JJ’s explaining history to me.” Cook explained, taking a bite out of one of the fish fingers, which earned Cook yet another dirty look from JJ.
“Right... Using fish fingers?” Katie sighed, pulling a diet coke out of her own bag, setting it down on the table in front of her, as she waited for an explanation.
“Cook has a very short attention span, if he can eat it, then it helps him stay interested. Different learning techniques, work for different people.” JJ smiled, furrowing his forehead as he tried to plan out how he was going to achieve the final wall. “I think we’re going to need more fish fingers”
“I’ll go and sweet talk the dinner lady into giving us more. Be back in a sec JJ.” Cook grinned, leaping up from the table like an excitable schoolboy, Katie couldn’t help but be amused.
“So you’re teaching Cook history?” Katie smiled, drinking from her can, watching Cook flirt with an overweight dinner lady who was more than happy to load Cook’s plate with breadcrumb covered sticks of fish.
“He’s very behind in all of his subjects, I don’t want him to fail.” JJ smiled, consulting his textbook to make sure that the castle was factually correct. Katie couldn’t help but laugh at JJ’s complete dedication to attention to detail.
“So you’re doing all this for him, what are you getting in return?” Katie asked, reaching out to adjust a wall, because she did listen in History, occasionally.
“Nothing. It’s called being a good friend Katie. Plus, there’s nothing that I want.” JJ lied, blushing as he watched Emily walk into the canteen with Naomi, there was something that he wanted and that was Emily.
“Shit you’ve got it bad. You do know she’s a tits and fanny kind of girl don’t you J?” Katie teased, rolling her eyes at JJ’s lovesick expression, watching as Naomi gripped onto Emily’s hand, watching how it made JJ shake his head, looking as if he was suffering.
“She’s mentioned it.” JJ sighed, because he felt a little stupid, saying all this in front of Katie, admitting that he was lusting after a lesbian who he didn’t even have the slightest chance with.
“Christ you need to move on, find someone new, there’s plenty of girls around J. You just need to find one that doesn’t love minge as much as you do.” Katie laughed, grinning as she realised that she’d cheered JJ up as well.
“I’m useless with girls, I don’t know what to say, what to do.” JJ stuttered, the only advice he had available to him was from Cook, and he wasn’t completely sure that Cook was the right person for the job.
Katie mulled it over, thinking for a minute, before an idea began to formulate.
“What you need is lessons, in love, from an expert. How about I teach you JJ, I'll train you to pull a girl.” Katie suggested, raising an eyebrow as she watched the look of shock register on JJ’s face.
“Why... Why would you do that? What do you get out of it?” JJ stuttered, suspiciously eyeing Katie.
“You help me bring down that bitch Stonem, she’ll never suspect you as being anything but innocent little JJ. She won’t know what hit her.” Katie hissed, grinning as she felt more pieces of her plan click together in her head, all she needed was JJ and they’d be able to do this. “What do you say J?”
JJ sat, looking slightly astonished, trying to find the words to reply. Trying to find a reply in the first place, what was he supposed to say? This was all so confusing. Opening his mouth, he started to find his answer...
“Fish fingers!” Cook shouted, slamming the tray down on the table, making both Katie and JJ jump, their conversation interrupted, for now.
