Braceface Porn Story: Operation Awakening Chapter 11

A/N:
I know, I know. I’m a horrible person I deserted this story
for, what, well over 2 years? And it really doesnt have much left to
it Maybe 5 more chapters at the most. But I figure since I have
some time off for the next couple weeks, I should finish it
Especially since I have about 3 or 4 other stories Ive been
writing but havent posted. Id be a complete ass to post them
and not finish this one first.

I
have to say most of my motivation to pick this story up came from
reviews I got Even though it hasnt been updated in so freakin
long, you all still reviewed and told me you liked it. And plus I
read it over again last night and found myself snickering at parts so
I felt I had to finish it.

As
of right now, Im really motivated so I might even finish it in
about a month or so but if not that fast, then I PROMISE I will
finish it before college starts again in August. Otherwise I wont
have any time since the two years Ive been absent for have been
my freshman and sophomore years at college and I never had time to
write.

So
I sat down and wrote this in about 3 hours this morning and Ill
probably start the next chapter later tonight. (And I also like how I
had a reason for the title at one point But I never actually
explained it and forgot to do so in this chapter too Haha, oh
well.)

Ive
also enabled my e-mail so, heaven forbid, I neglect you again, feel
free to yell at me.

Your groveling authoress, theLadyLoco

Sidenote:
To all of you who read this far You had the patience to read 54
pages (size 12 Times New Roman) I didnt even realize it was
that long until I condensed it into one Word file. So thank you and
here is the LONG awaited new chapter.

Aldens
POV

Running
a hand through his hair in annoyance, Alden glared at Nina in
frustration. He couldnt believe he had actually dated the girl for
a full year She seemed so, well, spoiled.

But
Alden, we were so good together. Nina whined, attempting to wrap
her arms around his neck.

Pushing
the petite redhead away firmly, Alden shook his head. Ugh, I forgot
how much she whines No Nina, we were never good together. I was
just a nave little boy who actually thought you might love me.
And you got a cheap thrill out of having me wrapped around your
little finger.

Feeling
a little mean at being so blunt, Alden shrugged it off. Nina had
brought this upon herself by assuming he would just welcome her back
with open arms. Especially after all the shit she talked about
Sharon. No one says that type of stuff about my Sharon and gets away
with it. Wait My Sharon? Gah

But
Aldie, the sex was amazing.

Smirking
at her, Alden held up a finger. First, do NOT call me Aldie.
Holding up a second finger, he added, And secondly, I know this is
an odd concept for you to grasp, but for a relationship to be
meaningful, there has to be more to it then sex.

Pouting
up at him, Nina made her lower lip quiver. But it was beautiful
when we made love.

Snorting
derisively, Alden couldnt believe he had ever fallen for that
expression. Annoyed at how long this needless conversation was
taking, he bit out, Nina, we did not make love. What we did
is fuck, plain and simple. Dont try to dress it up with pretty
words. In order to make love to someone, there has to be love on both
sides and what we had was clearly a one-sided relationship.

Watching
her face contort into an ugly scowl, Alden shook his head and began
fiddling with the car keys in his pocket. God, shes so vapid.
And annoying. And, well, a bitch. Ill have to tell Sharon about
this when I get back.

Shifting
his mind to Sharon, Alden felt a small smile grace his face. There
was something about the blonde that just made everything else seem to
pale in comparison. She was just so genuine; she truly cared about
people and their feelings. Nina looked like a washed-out fake in
comparison.

ALDEN!
Would you pay attention to me when Im talking! GOD. I forgot how
annoying it was trying to have a serious discussion with you! Nina
screeched, interrupting his train of thought.

Wincing,
Alden clenched his jaw and glared down at Nina. Look Nina, as far
as Im concerned, this conversation is OVER. There is no us
and there never will be again. Even if I could have forgiven you for
the way you treated me, I could NEVER forgive you for cheating on
me.

Realizing
the conversation was not going the way she had planned, Nina glared
at him and shrieked. Oh thats just RICH! You cant forgive me
for some stupid indiscretion but youre still buddy buddy with
Brock! He had a part in it too, you know!

Snorting,
Alden glared at Nina, Brock was DRUNK, Nina. You took advantage of
him when he was intoxicated because you KNEW it would hurt me.
Smirking at her rather maliciously, he continued softly, You know,
what you did boarders on rape so I wouldnt go shouting it out to
everyone.

Nina
had the good grace to look a little apprehensive but she had one last
card up her sleeve. If you think that Spitz could ever be as good
for you as I was, youve got another thing coming to you. Shes
just a stupid little girl who isnt even as pretty as I am.

That.
Fucking. Bitch.

Now
Alden understood the term seeing red as he leaned down and
glared at her furiously. You could never be HALF the woman that
Sharon is. And you know why? Because you dont have a single decent
bone in your entire body. Sharon is sweet and pure and funny. And she
is ten times more beautiful than you could ever be because her beauty
comes from inside and has nothing to do with makeup or designer
clothes.

Wow,
that was really corny Did I just say that?

Clenching
his fists together in an attempt to control his anger, Alden took a
deep breath to calm himself before looking down at the intimidated
redhead. This conversation is over. As far as Im concerned, we
have nothing left to talk about. Goodbye, Nina.

With
that final word, Alden turned and walked swiftly back towards his
car, ignoring the sounds of Nina yelling after him. Grinning to
himself, he unlocked the door and slid into the drivers seat. That
felt really really good. I would have probably been mad at Nina for a
long time still if I hadnt been able to say that all to her face.

Pulling
out of the park parking lot, Alden turned right and headed towards
Marias house where he knew the band (and Sharon) would be waiting
for him. Now that that conversation was out of the way, I can focus
on more important things like the band. And school. And, well
Sharon.

Sharons
POV

Bouncing
her foot up and down, Sharon stood and went to look out the garage
window for the third time in the last 10 minutes. Where is he!

My
god Sharon, would you sit still! Youre driving me crazy! Mark
moaned pitifully.

Turning
towards the brunet, Sharon grinned to herself before making a running
leap towards Mark and landing directly on his stomach.

OOF!
SHARON!

Pushing
the laughing blonde off his lap and onto the floor, Mark glared down
at her in irritation. Look, I know how antsy you are to see lover
boy, but SERIOUSLY, take a chill pill.

Snorting
at him, Sharon stood then leaned forward and ruffled his hair in the
way that she knew pissed him off. Aww, poor widdle Marky.
Someones knickers are in a bit of a bunch, arent they?

Hearing
someone snort behind her, Sharon turned to see Jace smirking at her
as he leaned on his pool stick, waiting for Conner to make his shot.
Sharon, leave poor Mark alone. He didnt get any last night so
hes a little grumpy.

Snickering
with Jace, Sharon was about to make another comment to annoy Mark
when she heard the garage door open behind her. Spinning around, she
grinned when she saw Alden let himself in quietly. He looked tired
but happy. Thank god hes okay. I dont have to worry about him
anymore Not that I was worried or anything. Right. Um. Anyways.

Bouncing
over to him, Sharon threw herself onto his back and wrapped her arms
around his neck, grinning when his arms immediately grasped her
thighs so he didnt drop her. Aldie! Where have you been! Ive
been so bored without you!

Hearing
Mark groan from the couch, Sharon peeked over Aldens shoulder in
time to see Mark poke his head over the couch and look at Alden
pleadingly. Please calm her down or something. Shes been
annoying the shit out of us for the last hour or so.

Laughing
from the pool table, Maria nodded as she kept her eyes on the game
between Jace and Conner. Shes been harassing Mark almost
nonstop since she got here. Its quite amusing actually.

Pouting
at Maria, Mark whined. Maria! Whose side are you on?

Raising
an eyebrow, the Asian girl finally took her attention from the game
and focused on Mark. Dont be a whiny little bitch, Mark. It
doesnt suit you.

Snickering,
Sharon buried her face in the back of Aldens neck in an attempt to
muffle her laughter. It was always hilarious when Maria and Mark got
going. Feeling Aldens back shake slightly as he laughed with her,
she grinned and snuggled closer to him. Murmuring so the others
wouldnt hear, Sharon asked quietly. Is everything okay, Ald?
You kind of ran out on me earlier.

Nodding,
Alden began rubbing his thumb along the outside of her thigh where he
held her. Just something I had to take care of.

Ignoring
the fuzzy feeling she got at Aldens light touch, Sharon frowned
slightly. You dont normally hide things from me, Alden.

Moving
towards the couch, Alden gently lowered her onto it backwards before
turning and smiling down at her. Everything is fine Sharon. In
fact, everything is perfect.

It
felt like she was drowning in his caring blue eyes and never wanted
it to end. Gah Why is it I think in cute little clichs
when ever Im around him? And why to I always get that warm, fuzzy
feeling in my stomach. Do I really like him as more than a friend?

Feeling
the couch sag as Alden sat down next to her, Sharon sighed happily as
he wrapped his arms around her. There was a point, probably even just
a few days ago, when that realization would have scared the crap out
of her. But this was Alden. Alden would never do anything to hurt
her. In fact, hed rather hurt himself first.

My
god, get a freakin room already! Mark growled.

Giggling,
Sharon flipped the glowering guitarist off before snuggling deeper
into Aldens arms. See Ald? He really is bitchy today.

Hearing
Aldens laughter rumble in his chest, Sharon bit back a grin when
she felt him shift to look at Mark and state, in a very solemn tone,
Mark, I think you need to get laid.

At
that comment from Alden, who normally didnt join in the teasing,
the entire group burst out laughing (even Mark). Maria, getting up
from Conners lap, walked over to Sharon and pulled her reluctantly
out of Aldens arms. Come on Shar, we have to find you something
to wear tonight for the show.

Shit,
how could I forget about the show tonight? She wasnt so much
worried about it as she was surprised she had forgotten. I guess with
all thats been going on with Alden, it completely slipped my mind.

Shooing
the guys out of the garage with the instructions to go home and get
dressed, Maria yelled after them. Be ready in an hour! Well
meet at the diner for dinner at 6:00! With that, she grabbed
Sharon and pulled her into the main house and up the stairs to her
bedroom.

Grinned
at Marias enthusiasm, Sharon laughed as the other girl practically
dove into her closet to find something for her and Sharon to wear. It
wasnt as if Sharon couldnt dress herself, it was just that she
dressed a lot more, well, preppy then everyone else in the band so
Maria always took it upon herself to find Sharon a suitable
outfit for gig nights.

And,
although Id never really admit it out loud, I absolutely adore
Marias taste in clothes Most of the time.

What
do you want to wear tonight, Shar? Pants or a skirt? came a
muffled voice from the rather large walk in closet.

Shrugging,
Sharon threw herself back onto Marias large bed. Doesnt
matter. Something comfortable. Looking around the large bedroom,
she grinned to herself. I absolutely love Marias room My mom
would kill me if I did anything like this to mine.

Maria
had painted her entire room a dark purple and had matching black
sheets and curtains. All over the walls, Maria had tacked pictures of
the group from the past couple years. Pictures of her and Maria from
way back in freshman year. Various candid pictures of Alden (most of
which Sharon had taken). Tons of more recent ones of the entire band,
just relaxing and having fun together.

Reaching
up, Sharon traced one picture of herself and Alden from one of the
many picnics the band had had last summer. Alden was leaning against
a tree, playing his guitar while Sharon was lying next to him on her
stomach, reading a book. Smiling, she traced Aldens smile with the
tip of her finger. I love his smile. Especially when hes
completely relaxed and happy.

Hearing
noise from behind her, Sharon turned to find Maria stumbling out of
the closet with an arm load of clothes. Tossing them on the bed, she
immediately began sorting through them before tossing an outfit at
Sharon to try on.

Looking
down, Sharon found herself holding an extremely short plaid skirt and
a sheer top with a bunch of crisscrossing straps across the front.
You have got to be kidding me. Does she want me to look like a
hooker? I wouldnt even know how to put this thing on

Wrinkling
her nose, she looked up at Maria and frowned. Seeing Sharons
expression, Maria laughed and took the outfit back. Too much?

Snorting,
Sharon rolled her eyes. Maria always attempted to get Sharon to try
on some of her more eccentric creations before giving her something
she would actually wear. Seeing another set of clothes come hurling
towards her out of the corner of her eye, Sharon caught them and
raised an eyebrow at Maria in skepticism.

Grinning
innocently, Maria shrugged. What? Dont you trust me?

Laughing,
Sharon shook her head no and took what appeared to be a plain black
shirt and worn jeans into Marias bathroom to try on. There has to
be a catch

Tugging
the shirt over her head, Sharon turned to look at herself in the
mirror and started laughing. The shirt was a far cry from the sheer
number Maria had attempted the first time. It was actually a modified
black muscle tee with a scoop neck and cut off arms. Maria had
tailored it to hug all the right places so it didnt look boyish at
all. Across her right side, the band name Avenged Sevenfold was
written in white with the picture of a skull with batwings directly
below it. Never listened to the band but I think its one Maria
constantly raves about. (A/N: Sounds weird but my friend owns it and
it looks really cute.)

Paired
with a pair of tight, faded jeans, Sharon found she actually liked
the end result. Normally it took at least 3 or 4 outfits before she
agreed on one but this she liked. The tee was formfitting enough to
look sexy and, paired with the jeans, the outfit would be comfortable
to perform in.

Grinning,
Sharon headed out into the bedroom and did a pirouette for Maria.
What do you think?

Crossing
her arms across her chest, Maria eyed Sharon critically before
grinning. Most girls go for slutty when going to gigs so youll
stand out. I can even get out some temp hair dye and have some fun
putting streaks in your hair.

Nodding
in agreement, Sharon watched as Maria grabbed a pair of worn black
Converse sneakers out of her closet and handed them to her before
adding, Either way, Alden wont be able to take his eyes off of
you.

What!

Sputtering,
Sharon turned to look at Maria before repeating her thought. What!

Laughing
at her, Maria moved over to fasten a black leather bracelet over one
wrist and several thin plastic ones on the other. Dont give me
that. I saw youre expression earlier! You finally admit to liking
him, dont you!

Frowning,
Sharon crossed her arms and debating on being stubborn just to annoy
Maria. Damnit, when did she get so observant. I thought all her
attention was on Conner.

Sighing
in defeat, Sharon moved over to the mirror and began applying her
make-up. Get dressed while I talk. And yes, for your information,
I do like him.

Glaring
at Maria in the mirror when she saw the other girl smirking in
triumph, Sharon groaned in aggravation. Shut up, you little brat.

Tugging
on her own clothes, Maria flashed Sharon a grin. Aw, dont get
annoyed with me. Im just happy you finally stopped denying it to
yourself. I mean, everyone could see it but you two.

Raising
an eyebrow, Sharon frowned. I wasnt that obvious.

Snorting
derisively, Maria shook her head before stating. Yes, you were. If
Alden was anywhere in the room, I could basically guarantee youd
be with him. You two are like attached at the hip. Plus theres
been all the cuddling recently.

Ugh,
shes not going to let me live this one down.

Blushing
slightly, Sharon attempted to stand her ground. Not necessarily.
And we havent been cuddling! Well, at night maybe But what
Maria doesnt know wont hurt her.

Laughing,
Maria just smirked knowingly. You two cuddle just as much as
Conner and I do And were going out!

Growling
in annoyance (a habit she had picked up from Alden), Sharon admitted
defeat. Fine. So maybe I do like him Seeing Maria look at
her in amusement, she growled again. Fine! I like him A LOT Is
that better?

Nodding
happily, Maria motioned for Sharon to continue. Little brat Shes
lucky I love her to death or I might have to kick her ass for being
so annoying.

I
just want to take things slow and see what happens. Since Im
not even positive he likes me back. What if he still thinks of me as
his sister? Remembering yesterday mornings kiss, Sharon found
herself blushing. Okay, so maybe not as a sister But he might not
like me as much as I like him

Frowning,
Sharon shook her head. I dont know Maria. I just dont want
to rush things and push him into something he might not necessarily
want.

Hearing
Maria laugh out loud, Sharon broke out of her depressing thoughts and
looked at her friend as she laughed hysterically. Maria? You
okay?

Waving
at Sharon, Maria hunched over and attempted to catch her breath.
Looking up at Sharon from under a curtain of black hair, Maria asked
in astonishment, You really doubt how much he likes you?

Seeing
Sharon nod, Maria stood up straight and walked over to Sharon.
Looking her directly in the eye, she dropped the teasing note her
voice had held earlier. Sharon. Seriously. I know that boy almost
as well as I know you. And while I might not be as close to him as
you are, I have something you dont.

Tilting
her head to the side, Sharon stared at Maria in confusion. Whats
that?

Smiling,
Maria said, An outside view on the situation. And from where Im
standing, that boy is head over heels for you. Its like whenever
youre in the room, everyone else comes second is his eyes. I dont
even know if you realize, but he always watches you. I dont know
if its because he has a bit of a possessive streak in him. But
either way, he rarely takes his eyes off of you.

Looking
down, Sharon felt her cheeks blush at Marias words but she wasnt
quite sure if she should believe them. Maria has this way of
exaggerating sometimes and I dont know if what shes saying is
really true. But if it is If it is, that would be amazing.

Reaching
over, Sharon pulled Maria into a hug. Thanks Maria. You always
know how to make me feel better.

Who
knows? Maybe Maria is right?

Smiling
to herself, Sharon allowed herself to savor the warm, fuzzy feelings
that thought provoked. Maybe things might work out alright after all
