Chase
Gert was pacing, and Old Lace was tucked away soundly in her head although she could feel her shifting and stirring. Even with her roommate gone, it would have been irresponsible to let her out. Gert couldn't keep things the emotions from funneling to her currently. Pacing was not something she did regularly. It was typically reserved for very complex homework assignments that required concentration. There could be something relaxing in the movement, but now she was just fidgeting and there was a terrible, horrible knot in her stomach.

Calm, cool and collected were out the window, and Gert was reduced to the sort of person that she didn't like. What the fuck was wrong with her and why couldn't she seem to stop it? Gert stopped and pressed her forehead against the wall, counting under her breath. That wasn't helping, either.

What the shit was going on? How the hell was it that whenever Chase Stein was in her life the whole world seemed to get shaken and strange? And how could she get that to stop?

Did she want it to stop? That thought made her start pacing again, muttering darkly to herself. "Stop it. This is ridiculous. You are not five years old. You can control yourself better than this. Fuck." There was a note of resignation rather than anger in the swear.

That wasn't why his parents were evil. Or at least the whole reason they were evil. Chase didn't really want to talk about that. Ever. Gert never needed to know. It was enough she believed him about them. He shook his head. "They're fucked up," he agreed. "Not really my problem anymore." Which it wasn't. They were just happy he was finally 'applying himself'. And he was happy to be on the opposite side of the country. He shrugged off the rest. Yeah, it was probably true.

But when you grow up hearing the opposite...yeah, not going there.

"Eh, I was a little prick back then," Chase admitted. "I deserved everything I got." Well,not from his dad, but from Gert.

He laughed when she pointed out she'd messaged him first. "I was kind of surprised at that," he admitted. "I figured you'd just avoid me, since you weren't being forced to deal with me."

"No, Gert," he told her. "You're not fucking this up. I get that. The whole challenge thing. Why do you think I spend so much of my time doing things like riling up Drake until he buries me in the snow? Because that's the only way to get people to challenge you. Get in their faces and not back down until they rise to it or run off." And Gert had risen to it. Hell, she'd even done the stupid meme.

He laughed when she admitted she actually liked having him around. And that he never stopped talking. "I give you the last word," he said. "When you agree with me." Moving in closer, he reached down and gently tilted her face up towards his. "Well, that's one thing that is never going to stop. I never shut up, remember?"

"I considered ignoring you, but in the end I figured that it probably wasn't a practical decision. I mean, it's not that small of a school. And it was mine first, after all."

She rolled her eyes at the mention of Drake. "The more attention you give, Drake, the more he's going to want. If you keep up like this, he'll eventually turn you into some sort of tiny, yappy lapdog and then you might even be abducted into his collective. Don't worry. I wouldn't allow that. He is worthwhile to verbally spar with. You're a better alternative, though, even if you do choose stupid things like those memes to focus on." She wouldn't consider her version of the meme counting as having done it.

"I only agree with you when you're being sensible, which happens more often then I would have thought possible." Her voice shook just a little as she looked at him, but then she smirked. "Not ever apparently. However I read my Shakespeare, and I have a solution." Gert had to stand on her tiptoes in order to press a very chaste kiss on his mouth. "At least that worked for Benedict."

"Yeah, which you are never going to let me forget," he reminded her wryly. Not that it bothered him. It was hers first. And she was being pretty good about sharing.

Chase scoffed at the idea Drake turning him into his lapdog. "Eh, he was amusing yesterday," he said. "Besides, I'm not interested in hanging out with his posse. Maybe when it amuses me. Like yesterday." Heh, the fact she'd even half assed attempted it showed he was getting through to her. "Because there's anything better to do here? I was bored, it was a way to amuse myself for awhile. And get attention." Which had worked like a charm.

He laughed when she admitted he was sensible more than she thought he could be. As for shutting him up, that would be more effective if it lasted longer. Chase leaned down a bit to help her out, because she was so little. "Well, it would probably worked better if it was more like this..."

Chase leaned down further, wrapping his arms around Gert's waist to draw her closer and kiss her deeper. It was really easier just to pick her up and lift her closer to his height. And more fun. God only knew Gert needed more fun.

"There's lots of interesting things to do here. I've been trying to show you that. Well, new interesting things for your ilk anyway. Things other than getting yourself buried in the snow and making me watch animated movies." Although she had enjoyed the movies. What she had seen of them before they had both fallen asleep. In her bed.

If she had been wearing shoes, the kissing would have been easier. They gave her a few more inches at least. It might not have made enough of a difference, though.

"Center of attention, hot scary girl kissing you, and you're still talking?" she raised her eyebrows at him. "I think I might need to officially designate you as my third major." That was all she managed to get out before he was kissing her.

And Chase was a much better kisser than she would have guessed. Not that she had a lot to go on. She threaded her hands into his hair and just enjoyed it for a few moments before she pulled back to look at him. "You had better not turn into a sap now, Stein. I cannot have you ruining all of my cred around here."

"You like Shrek," he defended. "Which reminds me. We need to finish the last one. Possibly the last two, since I think I fell asleep about the time they hit the high school."

Chase laughed and just kissed her. Yeah, a couple of inches of extra height would have been easier, but Gert was both built and tiny at the same time. And still didn't weigh that much. Especially to a guy who lifted weights three times a week.

He laughed again at her accusation. "Now I want to be all sappy," he countered as he adjusted his grip on Gert so he could hold her up easier. "Just because you said that. Don't worry, I think your bitch cred is safe. Now shut up and kiss me, Yorkes."

"It wasn't quite what I was expecting. I will give it that. Also interestingly timed considering these new circumstances." That was one way to phrase it.

Gert frowned at him, her brow furrowed. "Sorry. This is a no sap zone. I think I'm allergic to it. Plus I'll mock you terribly."

She kissed him again, lightly. "Good. It's taken me years to send people scurrying into the night at a mere glance. I see you're not worried about your reputation, though."

Chase might be able to lift her easily enough, but it wasn't the most comfortable position. Squirming out of his grasp, she hesitated for a moment not sure whether she or not it would be a good idea to take his hand. In the end she tugged lightly at his sleeve. "I don't promise anything, but the bed helps decrease your somewhat annoying height advantage."

"Totally unintentional," Chase defended. "Although now that I think about it,they are good date movies. What with the obvious love themes."

Chase laughed at her threat. "You'll mock me anyway," he reminded her. "And since when has the threat of mockery ever stopped me?"

Yeah, because this would totally ruin all of his dumb jock cred. As Jared had so conveniently pointed out, Gert was hot. Any interest he had in her could easily be dismissed by the unobservant as wanting to get into her pants. Not that Chase didn't want to, but it wasn't his immediate concern.

Well, if Gert would work with him here, it could be. But this was Gert and he should know better by now. Chase looked down at her grabbing his sleeve and raised his brows. Okay, Yorkes, jeeze. He'd just stuck his tongue in her mouth and she was worried about holding his hand? Yeah, okay.

"Yeah, because I'm expecting to get lucky just because I actually realized what was right in front of my face," he pointed out as he sat down on the bed. "Jesus, Yorkes, give me some credit. Besides, unless your roommate is actually telepathic, Murpy's Law states the second I put my hand under your shirt, she'll come walking back in here." Which would end the whole make out session, he was sure.

"I wasn't implying conscious intent. I was merely pointing out the circumstance. Although in retrospect, they could be considered a bit blatant."

"Of course, I would mock you anyway," she said simply. "If the threat of mockery deterred you, you wouldn't be here. That would make everything entirely too simply and downright dull."

To be honest, Gert was more concerned about holding his hand than either of their reputations, which was stupid and entirely in character at the same time. Holding hands just seemed childish and silly somehow. It was a level that she wasn't sure she was ready to go yet, and it scared her in a way that kissing hadn't. Not that she could have explained it if anyone has asked.

Gert sat down next to him, chin in her hand, head tilted as she looked at him. "I wasn't talking about sex anyway. I just meant that in general I don't promise anything."

Then she laughed and shook her head. "It's terrible that I don't even know her power. Maybe she is a telepath although I would hope whomever makes the rooming assignments would realize it could be a bad idea to put a telepath in a room with a roaming id."

"I am surprised that you got jealous about the moron, though. He really wouldn't have been a threat." The fingers of Gert's free hand brushed through his hair gently.

"Yeah, but then I'd have to totally take credit for setting that up," he pointed out. "And since I already admitted it was unintentional, that would be lying. Also if we're talking blatant set up, well, that'd be the fourth one. Which I think you'll like Fiona more in that one. Just saying."

Holding hands only seemed silly and childish because Gert seemed to think anything that wasn't utterly serious and boring was silly and childish. Chase had been working on her, but he didn't expect results overnight.

Chase scoffed at the whole not talking about sex thing. "Please give me credit for being smoother than that, Gert," he reminded her. Then rolled his eyes. "Did I come in here asking for promises? No. Will you just relax already?"

Yeah, he didn't want to talk about her roommate. Or Jared. Nor was this position any better for anything. Grabbing Gert around the waist, he pulled her into his lap. "Did it ever occur to you that I was in denial of your hotness because we're supposed to hate each other?" he reminded her. "And it took some other guy telling me that he envied my hot girlfriend with the nice rack and ass for me to realize that 'Wait, maybe there's something to all of that and if I don't stop being an idiot, some other guy is going to notice and come along and take what I didn't realize I wanted'."

Fiona had her good points although Gert had found that each subsequent movie had her liking the character a little less. In the first movie she had been a sort of anti-princess, but in the sequels she was becoming more domesticated. There was still the edge, but it seemed to have dulled by love and marriage. "I'll take your word on that. You've been having a pretty good run of good ideas."

She was way more relaxed then she had been earlier that was for sure. Of course, Gert's definition of relaxed differed greatly from the one that Chase seemed to subscribe to. If she were being honest, she actually wasn't sure if she could be that relaxed ever. Gert scrunched her face up and then just stuck her tongue out at him. "You do get that this is slightly terrifying, yes?"

Being pulled onto his lap didn't make it less terrifying, but it at least helped get her mind off of it. "I never actually hated you. I hated the way you acted sometimes."

Gert kissed his neck. "Considering that fact that you can be an idiot, especially when you're playing it up for whatever lame front you've developed, that doesn't completely surprise me. Although I'm not really the type to be swept off her feet by just anyone. I'm sure you realize this."

Yeah, she'd definitely like Fiona in Shrek Forever After then. Even the latter part of Shrek the Third when she was knocked up and still kicking ass was awesome. "Oh no, you're not taking my word for it, babe," he told her. "We'll just finish watching them sometime."

It was slightly terrifying. It was also pretty awesome. "Yeah, I get that," he told her. "Hence me telling you to relax, Gert." He had to agree on that. "I never hated you either. I hated what you represented. Which isn't really who you are, when you forget to put up your own front."

He wasn't the only one putting up a front. Gert was actually pretty damned cool when she wasn't being an intellectual snob. "Yeah, I know," he pointed out wryly. "How many times do I have to remind you how much I like a challenge?"

"I could see that happening in the future. Sometime. Eventually. Thank to you my animated movie quota for the next six months has been used up." There were some times when she was glad that her Chase filter from when they were younger was still working. It was the only thing that kept her from getting annoyed when he used "babe" as an actual reference to a person. Although, knowing him, it was just as likely to be used in an attempt to get a reaction out of he as it was just an ingrained part of his vocabulary. The best way to handle it was to ignore it. Gert was capable of that.

Awesome was one word for it. Unexpected, surprising, potentially devastating, inexplicable and wonderful were also descriptors she would have used though some of them would have required more questioning and provoking than others. "I am relaxed," she said, somewhat huffy.

She looked away when he said that he hated what she represented. "Chase, all my political, ideological and intellectual leanings don't go away just because I go out of bitch mode. They're still a part of who I am. The difference is just in how I'm interacting with the person."

Most of her fronts had come part and parcel with her powers. It was easier to trap things and emotions away when you didn't have to worry about being bothered by people all the time. Plus she was actually smarter than most of them. It wasn't their fault. She couldn't help it, and she had no desire to dumb herself down to their level. Things were just easier with Chase. "That comment goes both ways."

For once, he wasn't trying to annoy her with the 'babe' reference. It was more ingrained in his speech patterns than anything. That said, he knew well it annoyed her and wasn't about to stop. She knew what she was getting here. "Yeah, yeah, because it was clearly torture for you."

It was all those things, but the more Gert mulled over, questioned and stressed about it, the more likely she was to run the other direction because this wasn't supposed to be something she wanted. Especially not with a guy like him.

"Exactly," he agreed. "When you aren't being an intellectual snob and turning your nose up at things we less intelligent folks like to do, you're not being what I hate. Elitism is elitism. Doesn't matter who's doing it and why." He didn't expect her to dumb anything down as opposed to not act like his parents because not everybody got to be a genius.

"Yeah, kind of figured that."

"I was doing advanced organic chem equations in my head the entire time to keep myself sane," she joked, the smile reaching her eyes as well. The movies had actually been a lot of fun. More than she was willing to admit.

Gert patted his cheek. "You can drop the act, Chase. You're at least able to keep up with me in any intellectual conversation we have. You might not have all the reference points, and your vocabulary could probably use an upgrade, but that doesn't make you less intelligent."

"One would hope. I distinctly recall saying it in at least five different ways, not all of which were logical or understandable, but I would hope at least one of them was clear enough to get the point across."

Then she smirked. "Are there any unexpected tattoos or piercings I should be made aware of for future reference?"

"Sure you were," he challenged. He had a feeling she liked the movies way more than she let on. Of course, she couldn't just come out and say that. Her front and all.

Chase shrugged. "I get by," he dismissed. "I prefer to spend my time doing other stuff. Besides, that's what Wikipedia is for, right?" Yeah, he was possibly a masochist for antagonizing her like that, but when she insisted on playing the snob (and she was just playing right now), he had to match her with his own front.

"And here I thought you just wanted me for my body." Not that Chase figured that wasn't part of it. "You're welcome to check for yourself." Not that he had any. Chase had always wanted to get a tattoo, but he didn't know of what. As for the piercings, he played too many sports and worked with too many things that made extra piercings more of a liability than was worth the cool factor.

"You should be doing much more than getting by. Smart is sexy. I mean, Norse god is also sexy, which you are very nearly approaching. Were those private schools feeding you human growth hormone? I'll wait while you Wiki that, and if it says that human growth hormone comes from pink unicorns, it's true. Remember it's on the internet so it must be real." A lot of her phrases were all about tone, and this one lacked any semblance of venom. Plus she was still smirking.

Gert knew that Chase was attractive. Okay. He was hot in the way that would probably always make her just a little bit paranoid. If he wasn't the sort of guy she was supposed to want, then there was no way she was supposed to be the kind of girl to catch his interest.

"I just want to see how vanilla you are when it comes to body modifications, that's all." Gert held a finger up at him. "Don't start. I'm sure you have more actual sexual experience." Especially considering that she was technically a virgin because sex toys didn't count for that.

"If I start playing hide and seek with any potential mods, though, that is when my roommate would walk in." She slipped her hands under his shirt to run them across his chest and then over his back. Nothing there. Tattoos were harder to find by touch, but they raised the skin slightly, and Gert was used to the sensation. Hands resting at the small of his back, she shook her head. "Tease. When are we breaking your tatt cherry?" There was more of him to check, but that was a little out of her depth at the moment.

It was amazing, how she could insult him, compliment him, lecture him and taunt him all at one time. Chase was really starting to like that. "Consider it our little secret," he countered. "I don't show every girl my brains." He snickered about the human growth hormone thing. "No, no, I'm pretty sure it was genetic engineering perform by my parents. My dad especially, you know Victor Franken Stein." God it pissed off his dad to know end when he made that joke and said he was clearly supposed to be the experiment that went awry. That had earned him more than few black eyes. But it was worth it.

How vanilla he was huh? Chase smirked when she said not to start. "There's nothing wrong with vanilla," he reminded her in a teasing. Really, most of the so called kinks just creeped him out. Especially all of the S&M fetishes. Purposely physically hurting people for please was just fucked up beyond belief.

Okay, that was not fair. Chase didn't protest, since hey, she was running her hands all over his torso. In fact, the sound he made when she did it wasn't a protest at all. "When we figure out what to get and where to put it," he told her. "Piercings are a no. I'm not getting extra holes put in to spend all my time wearing spacers so I don rip them out on a good tackle or accidentally wield them to something."

"Your brain is mine alone for the taking, huh? I could be okay with that arrangement although I do think it could be considered a bit of a waste." Then she frowned. "I always forget exactly what sort of creepy mad scientists your parents are probably because I tune out my parents whenever they start in about the next great feat the Steins have managed."

"Wouldn't know when it comes to sex. We're talking body mods here. Not that I'm implying it's necessarily bad in either sense: sex or lack of bodily modifications." Gert didn't pretend to understand other people's preferences, but she wasn't interested in trying most of them, especially the ones that were accompanied with physical pain. Her power could be triggered pain, which was not the sort of situation anyone wanted to be in.

Gert was too busy concentrating on checking for tattoos to catch his reaction. "Do you have any general ideas? They do hurt a bit. It depends on where you get it. Usually the level of pain isn't bad. When I got my seraphs, it was actually relaxing enough that I fell asleep."

"I forgot about you and your crazy sports. It probably wouldn't be a good idea to get anything ripped off or welded to your flesh." Gert's hands traced back around to his stomach while she was talking without her noticing.

"Well, it's not like I'm using it all that much," he teased. As for his parents, Chase just shrugged. "They make some cool stuff." He just didn't want to know what a lot of it was for. Or more didn't want to talk about it right now.

Especially because his was very distracted by Gert running her hands all over his body in some sort of evil subconscious plot to driving him insane. Also, like he could think rationally (or at all) when she was groping him.

"Gert," he began, then just decided to skip the explanation and just kiss her again. Probably a bit more hungrily and demanding than he intended, but see groping him for the last few minutes.

"I still vote you use it more. It's fun when it comes out to play." Gert had been picking up the pattern for a while now. Something in their conversation would lead to them talking about his parents, and then the topic would be dropped. Not in overly obvious ways, but it always seemed to happen.

Gert was actually used to moving her hands while she talked. It typically did not involve running them over the skin of a guy, but it was just a habit she had. She was not intentionally trying to tease him.

When he kissed her, her hands tensed slightly on his sides and then she whimpered a bit. Eyes closed she let herself fall into this kiss more than she had the others, brushing her lower lip purposefully over his so she could drag the metal over it.

"Maybe for you. A bit more." Chase didn't want to talk about his parents. It was that simple. Them as a topic of conversation was the biggest mood killer ever. Hopefully, she'd learn to just drop it, right?

It didn't matter if she was doing it on purpose or not. She was running her little, soft, warm hands all over his chest and back and stomach, under his shirt, which was just an even bigger tease. He was 18 and male. Everything made him horny as it was without help.

Okay, that was so not helping him not get even more riled up. The feel of cool metal across his lip made Chase groan and draw her closer. He pulled back enough to trace his tongue over the snakebites, shuddering at the sensation.

Yeah, piercings rocked. At least on her they did.

"If I reward you? Like Scooby Snacks or something?" She was grinning although she was not going to let the issue of her parents go. Not completely. Gert could be patient, and she was collecting evidence anyway just to make sure that it wasn't just her reading more into things than she should be.

At the moment, though, she wasn't really thinking about that too much because Chase was kissing her and her hands were under his shirt. This was a decidedly unexpected occurrence for her. Gert was definitely not complaining, though.

She shifted her hips against him and that was either some tool in his pocket or his penis. She was voting for penis especially considering their current activities. Gert wasn't a prude despite what most people on campus probably thought. It was true that she didn't have a lot of practice, but she wasn't clueless.

Gert pulled away slightly so she could catch her breath and just look at him for a minute. Untangling her hands from where they had gotten caught in the him of his shirt, she gently closed his eyelids before planting a soft kiss on each of them being careful of the metal. Then she went back to his lips, one hand in his hair and the other one cupping his face.
