Slowly but surely

The next day carl once again headed to Jessie house to see her sitting on her front porch she looked over to see Carl and smiled at him

Carl smiling back “hey are you,how you feeling”

Giving a sad smile she shook her head “still not doing to well after what happened you know?” Her voice cracking on the verge of tears she stood up covering her eyes

Carl walked up to her going in for the hug wrapping his arms around her “I’m sorry for all that’s happening to you”

Jessie wrapped her arms around him embracing his hug they stood in each others embrace she buried her head in his chest and sobbed Carl laid his head a top hers they stood there for a minute She then pulled back her head slightly away looking up at Carl both look in each other’s eyes as she’s about to pull away from the hug Carl goes in to kiss her on the lips

Her eyes widen “mmph!!!”Jessie beyond surprised by that Carl would do that but part of her didn’t care Carl places both hands on her lower his pulling her closer to him deepening the kiss jessie could feel his tongue wanting to gain access to her mouth but Jessie was having mixed feelings about him doing that denying him that carl and Jessie pull away both out of air Jessie with her mouth slightly open still surprised at Carl’s actions

Carl panting “I’m surprised huff… you let me did that huff… I was afraid…. you had a thing for my dad”

Jessie smirked shaking her head “what made you think that?”

Carl shrugged “At the party I saw when you were holding Judith my dad kissed you I was afraid you two were had a thing. It’s why I thought my dad and your ex husband were fighting”

Jessie raised an eyebrow saying “Well first off he kissed me I didn’t expect that. Second what makes you think me and Pete are over just cause of what happened? I’m still married”

Carl looked down with slight disappointment “but what about the kiss? I thought we were having something here?”

Jessie looked to the side “look Carl the kiss was…. Nice but come on we can’t have anything I mean for god sakes your the same age as my oldest son. It’s… just wrong Carl”

Carl grabbed both her hands “Does it feel wrong?” Looking to her eyes face leaning closer to hers

Jessie looked to carl speechless with no words to say she just shakes her head Carl smiled “It’s the end of the world we can do whatever we want”

they both leaned in to each other and kissed again she wrapped her arms around his neck Her legs wrapped around his waist Carl began to carry them to her room
