CHAPTER ONE: Lives Turn Complicated

It all started when I was sixteen-years-old. Now, when you are growing up the biggest problem most people have to deal with is what clothes match their new cell phone. I on the other hand, had a huge crush. It doesn't sound that bad, and it wouldn't have been if the crush wasn't on my brother's best friend.

Most people said I didn't look my age. I was taller that most girls and my body was well developed. I had long slender legs, my breasts were big. Nearly a C-cup; so I felt awkward and different. I had long dark hair that complimented my deep green eyes, full lips that had a natural red color and a completion that my friends told me they would die for. I wasn't fat, but then again I wasn't the thinnest person either. I had the proper amount of curves my friend would say.

My body attracted a lot of attention, most of it unwanted and un-needed. There was never a lack of boys hanging about asking me out, but I only had Eyes for James Carrends.

He was tall and muscular, like a man should be. He had amazing biceps and a well built chest that I could fantasy about all day if I let myself. His abs were rock hard and making themselves known. And he fit his jeans like they were painted on, and I had to admire his skill of being able to fit everything in them; if you know what I mean. He had dark blonde hair and hazel green eyes that I could lose myself in.

He was also polite and the perfect gentlemen to me. He treated me like the princess, I never was and I adored him for it. He would always make me smile when I was sad, and because of that I think I loved him. I think the reason why I liked James was because; I could talk to him and feel comfortable around him.

I have a great family, a mother who loves me and a father who took care of me. Younger sisters have problems with their brother, but my brother Rick was my best Friend, he was so protective of me and even though he had his friends he always made time to hang out with me. James was older than my brother, but whenever they got together they would act like teenagers.

I had a mostly normal life, I went to school paid attention; got good grades, and had a few friends. Didn't like parties or going to the mall. I spent a lot time playing video games with my brother and James. I wasn't spoiled or childish. I was very mature for my age and that made it hard to talk to boys my age. If I wasn't with my brother or at my computer I was at the library, study or just simply reading a book.

I loved martial arts and without my parents consent I got into a gym and started taking classes. I was very happy because my sensei said that I was natural at it. The only two people who knew were Rick and James and they were totally accepting with it.

Oh, were are my manners? I'm so dreadfully sorry, I forgot to introduce myself, my name is Sarah Carter and this is my story.

Well, let me tell you when my life became complicated. It was the day I realized I was attracted to my best friend's sister. You would think that is not a problem, but the thing is she was 16 and I was 26. She had the body of a woman and the most deep green eyes I had ever seen. She had full luscious lips made to be kissed and the maturity of a grown up. She loved reading and talking about art, politics and history. She wasn't like most girls her age and that made her the more attractive to me. She was nice and sweet with me and her innocence amazed me. But I was her brother's friend and that was it or so I thought.

One day I went in the study and found one of her notebooks open. Thinking it was something from school I picked it up and was about to close it when I read my name. I started reading and was shocked to find the words.

"I wish I was older, so I could tell James how I feel about him. I want him to see me as a woman not his friends little sister.

Maybe I should accept a date with Kyle. I mean he said he liked me and wanted to get to know me better. If I get a boyfriend maybe I won't think of James so much.

It doesn't really matter in the long run I guess, no matter what I feel he does not feel the same way about me.

I want to cry so badly, it hurts knowing I will always be the little girl he knew when he was growing up and I will never be the woman he loves."

I dropped the book to the ground and cursed out loud. She liked me. I couldn't believe it and who the hell was Kyle.

Wow! I'm pathetic, I'm jealous of a 16-year-old kid. I came out of the study and saw her walking out of her room. She looked amazing, her hair falling around her shoulder and just a small amount of mascara and lip gloss covering her already beautiful features.

Her dress was black and fitted her body perfectly showing all of her curves. She was wearing heals and you could see she was having a hard time getting use to them. She saw me and blushed. I wanted to pull her close to my body and kiss her, never to stop again.

That was the day my life became very complicated.

"How do I look James?" She asked softly as she shyly glanced up at him from under her lashes. He was speechless and couldn't find the words.

"Is the dress to much?" Sarah asked looking at him fully, her worry showing on her features. James bit back a frown over the fact that he had been the one to create that frown.

"No! You look fantastic. The most beautiful girl I know," James replied looking at her, smiling as he watched her face light up from the compliment. She grinned widely and gave him a small turn, giggling in delight as she finished she turned and walk off, just as her brother came into the room.

"You are not going with Kyle dressed like that," Rick said after taking a quick look at her. She smiled and walked towards him. She kissed him on the cheek and went down the stairs.

Kyle was already waiting for her. He was a little bit taller than her and had dark brown hair and blue eyes. His jaw dropped when he saw her.

"You look amazing Sarah." Kyle told her as he told her hand.

"Thank you Kyle, you look great also," Sarah replied she took his hand and they walked out of the house.

Rick waited awhile, and then told James to come with him. He didn't trust this guy and was going to make sure his sister was safe. James agreed and they left shortly after Kyle's car left the driveway.

Kyle and Sarah arrived at the theatre in record time; they slowly strolled up to the front desk and purchased their tickets as they slowly followed the crowd into the crowded theatre.

Rick and James broke every speed limit to make sure they could also arrive with plenty of time to waste. They followed the couple into the theatre and sat back a ways from them. James frowned at all of the attendance that Sarah was getting.

Kyle placed his arm around Sarah's shoulders and James tensed.

Rick was planning on how to break every bone of the kid's body.

Sarah was happy with the movie and didn't mind his arms around her. She was focused on the man in the screen he looked so much like James and that made it a great movie.

James kept watching how Kyle would touch her hair, her cheek and her arm. He wanted to rip the kid's arms and tell him to stay away from Sarah but, he had no right.

The movie was about to end when Rick and James moved to leave, hoping to avoid running into Sarah and her date. Sarah noticed that someone was getting up and leaving, she glanced back and gasped as she saw James and Rick both leaving the crowded theatre. She fumed, how dare them!

The two mean when back to the house and had a couple of beers. It was about an hour later when they heard the car pull up outside.

James had, had more beers than Rick, but he needed something to keep his mind of Sarah, and at that moment drinking was the only thing he could think of doing.

Sarah was nervous while they walked to the door. Kyle said a gentle good night, and without asking he kissed her. She felt weird and it just seemed like it was a horrible mistake. Everything that was happening seemed wrong. It wasn't like the perfect first kiss that she had always dreamt off. There weren't fireworks, nor was there a sense of floating. All that happen was mashing of tongues and lips and some biting. After a few moments of this Sarah was getting more upset and pushed off his chest, she faked her breathing and looked him in the eyes.

"Thanks for the great night Kyle."

"My pleasure Sarah, maybe we can do it again sometime soon."

"Maybe," was her only reply as she smiled at him.

James was about to open the door and beat the guy up for daring to kiss her.

Kyle felt confused and quickly said his good night.

Sarah sighed and opened the door. 'Well that was a great first kiss' She thought sarcastically, she went inside and found them near the window. She laughed and went upstairs to her room.

Rick went to get something to eat and James went upstairs looking for Sarah. He found her sitting on the bed and thinking.

"Hey, is everything okay?" James asked sitting down on the bed by her side.

"Yeah, it's just--well I--I just expected more for my first kiss," Sarah said looking at him.

To this day he still doesn't know what made him do it, if it was the liquor in his system, or the look in her eyes. He pulled her close and brushed his lips on hers gently, and then he traced them with his tongue. He sucked on her lower lip until she parted them and he slid his tongue inside caressing hers with tenderness and passion.

Sarah couldn't believe what was happening, the man of her dreams was kissing her and she loved it. 'This is what a real kiss feels like' Sarah thought. She moaned into his mouth and he deepened the kiss.

He loved her taste, it was a mixture of strawberry and mint, and he couldn't get enough of it.

He tasted like vanilla and liquor, but she didn't mind this is what she would define as the best kiss. She wrapped her arms around his neck as he placed a hand on her back pressing her body against his.

He wanted to lower her to the bed and make love to her all night, but he knew that he couldn't, it was so wrong, so very, very wrong. 'It's so wrong but it fells so damn good.' He was losing control, she kept making delicious sounds and it was driving him crazy, he pulled away and she gasped, she was panting and trying to find support because the room was spinning.

She opened her eyes and looked at him, the moment she said his name he ran out of her room and down the stairs. Sarah figured she had done something wrong or that he didn't liked the way she kissed. She got up still feeling weak and closed the door; she got under the covers and cried herself to sleep.

James got to the living room and stopped to regain his breath. He looked down and found himself aroused. 'Damn it! I have to take care of this before Rick notices it' James thought, he went to the bathroom and got in. He unzipped his pants and grabbed his erection and began to stroke himself.

He started to imagine it was her hand moving up and down his shaft and that made his breathing ragged. He was losing control, once again and that thought only pushed him further. He knew he was close, he started to picture her again but instead of her hand it was her mouth. He started to stroke faster and the memory of her saying his name shattered his control. He came quietly moaning her name. He leant on the sink and looked at himself in the mirror.

He was sweating but the thing that bothered him was the shame he felt for thinking of Sarah like that. She was just a kid and he was imagining her doing sexual activities with him. He felt like a pervert. He splashed some water on his face, cleaned himself up and washed his hands. He got out and couldn't believe that just by kissing her he had gotten so aroused.

"I have to stay way from her, it is not right to take advantage of her innocence," James whispered to himself. He found Rick and told him that he didn't feel so good and that he was going to leave. His house was a few blocks away from Rick's so he decided to walk instead of drive. He wanted to think and plan what he was going to do next.
