Wish Shift: The Blooming of the Rose 1 A.S Day 139 Jenny got what sleep she could. It wasn't much but somehow when she got up to start getting ready she didn't notice the lack. She was so animated that she was almost manic in her movements. While she had been lying on the bed waiting for sleep to come to her, she had been turning over all of the different ways that she could use to find out if Derek felt the same for her that she felt for him. After letting a parade of half-baked schemes march through her mind she realized that she needed to stop over thinking this. She already had two ways that she could do this. She could just come out and say it of course. But thinking about doing that made her heart seize up at the thought that he might say no. She couldn't do that. Maybe she would after she had a better idea, but not yet. As she turned it over in her mind she started laughing to herself. What she needed was a little recon. It struck her funny that she would think of something from so far in her past and apply it to her situation now that way. But after she finished laughing she realized that it wasn't that ridiculous of an idea. She started thinking then of all of the women that he had been involved with as James. All of the little things that they had done before they had started the final run that ended with them being together. After she had kicked it around in her head a bit she started picking out the ones that had got her to notice them when she had realized what they were doing. She made a short list in her mind and decided that she would go down it until she found out what she needed to know. And if she failed. Well if she failed, there was always the direct approach of just coming out and asking him. She got out and started getting ready. He would be here soon to pick her up and she needed to get started on this right away. After her shower she started with the most obvious. She looked through the clothes that Hong had sent her. It didn't take long before she found the one that she knew would have caught her eye. It was a gauzy ankle length skirt. It had a pair of shorts made of slightly darker fabric inside it that clung tightly to her legs. The fabric of the skirt was so sheer that it literally was like wearing nothing. She paired it with a blouse that had a deep plunging neckline and short sleeves that only went just past her elbows and trailed off to hang down the back of her arm in a swallowtail cut. She had gotten a lot of different sandals because she knew that it would be hot this summer and the flat sole would be much easier on her as well. She looked over what she had chosen and looked at some of the jewelry that mom, grandma and Dianne had either given her or helped her pick out. She thought about what had gotten her attention and started looking through what she had. The last thing she went looking for was a gift from mom. It was a small bottle of perfume that she had yet to even open. She put it aside and started working on her hair first. She knew what she wanted to do. She brushed and pulled and pinned until she had it so one side of her face was bare. The rest had been shifted over to fall on the other side of her face leaving her left earlobe easily seen. She took her time on her face and made sure that she covered all of the spectrum. It took her a little while to get it just right, but she was glad that she hadn't balked at learning how to do this properly. She still needed more practice, but with what she wanted to find out she would get a lot more and that would not be an issue for too long. She carefully stepped into the outfit she selected and then turned to her shoes. She had adopted the Chinese habit of not wearing her outside shoes in the house most of the time soon after she moved there and she had kept doing so when she came back, but she needed to get ready in the bedroom for right now and that meant having to make an exception today. Once she finished she put the earrings in that she wanted to wear today. She decided to go with a little dangly. These ones were three silvery tubular triangular seashells grouped close together and enclosed in a delicate hoop. These ones were Sonya's but she had never really worn them that often so they never had much of a strong reaction for Jenny. She picked out the matching necklace and put it to the side. Lastly she applied the perfume the way he had seen her girlfriends apply it over the years. She was almost ready. She went hunting through the cabinets until she found the handbag that Dianne had helped her pick out. She transferred what she really needed to it from her murse and went into the kitchen to get a little tea until he got there. The kitchen section was getting more cramped for her now. She had to maneuver a little more to get in there recently, but she could still get what she needed for now. It occurred to her that she finally may have to look into moving the majority of her cooking outside to the grill or settle into dining out even more than she was doing already. Derek pulled into her lot a little after eight. Since he had started picking her up he had gotten into the habit of just going to Java Jolts after he dropped her off at the institute on the days she had to go there and waiting with her when she saw one of her other doctors. She was going to do things a little differently today though. She was waiting by the counter when he knocked on the door and then came in. "Hey Derek," she said brightly. He paused getting a good look at her. "Wow," he said. "Don't you look good this morning. What's the occasion?" "Nothing really," she lied. "I just felt like it." She picked up the necklace from the counter. "Can you put this on me?" she asked. She handed him the necklace and turned around and lifted her hair from the nape of her neck. She felt him drape the slim chain around her neck and then his fingers working the clasp behind her. He finished it and she felt his fingers pull away. She dropped her hair and turned around. "Thanks so much," she said leaning up to give him a quick peck on the cheek. She walked around him before he could say anything to the back room. "Let me just get my bag and we can go ok?" she called back over her shoulder. "Ok," she heard him mumble back to her. When they got into the jeep she thought he still looked a big off. She didn't say anything about what she had done at all. She asked him if they could go to Bob's first and he just said he was fine with it and headed that way. She picked one of the half booths over by the window. She felt him slide in beside her and spent the rest of breakfast sitting just close enough to him that she didn't get in his way while still making sure that she 'accidently' brushed against him often. While they were eating she asked him if he could get away for a few hours on Wednesday evening. She told him she wanted to go to City park to see the public showing of the local troupe putting on their annual Shakespeare run. He thought about it and said it sounded fun and he'd see what he could do. He dropped her off at the institute and headed back to Java Jolts to wait there until he opened up. She waited until he had gotten out of sight before she let herself start shaking from what she had done. She walked around high the rest of the day while she was with Dr. Min and Dr. Nakamura. She saw them looking her over, but they didn't say anything to her. When she was finished she walked out to meet Derek so he could take her back to the shop. He gave her her tea and she let her hands trace lightly over his as she took it. When he came out to talk with her during one of the slow patches she asked him if he would rub her neck and upper back for her. It wasn't the first time she had asked him to do that, but when he finished this time she leaned back against him and raised her hand behind her head without looking to squeeze his in appreciation as she thanked him. When he took her home she lingered with him outside talking. She made sure that she stood close to him and she tried to give what she hoped were subtle signals for him to kiss her before he left. He didn't take her up on it and she was afraid to push it seeing as she had already been so bold with him today. After he left she went inside got undressed and furiously used her vibrator thinking of him until she was exhausted and fell asleep. ------------------------------------------------ 1 A.S. Day 141 She repeated a variation of this each day after that. Wednesday morning when he picked her up she asked him again if he could get away that evening. He looked surprised and said that he had already taken care of it and said he already blocked that time out for her. When they got to the park the crowds were just starting to mill around and pick their places on the huge lawn in front of the big public stage. Derek had brought a blanket for them to sit on and a small cooler. As they walked across to find a place to spread out she knew what she would do if she were in China. There she would just reach out and take his elbow in her hand as they walked, but while he would not really get the meaning of an action like that like someone there would it didn't mean that he would be dim either. She decided to go ahead and do it anyway and she moved closer to him and leaned against him as they walked. She slipped her arm under his and reached up to hold it with her hand. Derek looked down at her and then quickly looked back up. When they found a good place he spread out the blanket and they sat there talking until it started. She let the play go on for a while until it was just starting to get dark and then she leaned over and lay down on her side with her head in his lap to finish watching it. She looked up at him and asked him if he minded her doing that and he quickly said he didn't. She snuggled against him and went back to watching the play. She thought she did a decent job concealing how she really felt while she did that. She really couldn't concentrate on the play very much. She was too busy enjoying how it felt to be there close to him like this. After a little while she felt his hand come down to rest on her shoulder and when he did that she squirmed a hair closer to him. She couldn't really tell, but she thought she could feel his stiff penis behind her head. She waited a few minutes and slowly reached up without looking to let her hand rest on top of his for the rest of the show. -------------------------------------------------------- 1 A.S. Day 143 On Friday she told him she wanted to go someplace different for lunch. He asked her what she had in mind and she told him she wanted to go to King Wok. When they walked in a ten year old black girl came out from behind the register and asked them what they wanted to have. By now she had become fairly proficient in her Chinese so she asked the little girl about getting a few things that she expected would be off menu. The little girls eyes opened up wide when she started speaking to her and when she answered she told her that she really didn't expect to hear her speaking to her in that way, that just because she looked Chinese she didn't expect her to speak Chinese. Jenny told her a brief version of how she switched and where. They chatted for a few more minutes while Derek stared blankly as they chattered in a language he knew nothing of. She took them to a close booth so they sat right next to each other and went back into the kitchen and started saying something in Chinese to the kitchen staff. Jenny looked up at him. "You can get something off the buffet for now, but don't get too much," she said. "She said they can make a couple of off menu things for us that I asked her about." The little black girl came out a few minutes later with a small grey- green teapot and two small handle less cups. She poured some of the steaming liquid into them and went away for now. She handed one to him and told him that it was hot and to be careful. "What is it?" he asked sniffing it. "It's Pu'er tea," she said. "I asked her if they had some and she said. they did and she could make some up for us." They got a few things off of the buffet, but Derek listened to her and didn't take much. They snacked on what they had gotten until the black girl and a florid faced man of about fifty brought them out the dishes that she had asked for. She chatted with them in Mandarin while they were laying the dishes out and when they went off she thanked them for doing this for them. As they ate she occasionally used her chopsticks to give him small tastes of the different dishes. "Watch out for this one," she said extending him a piece of spicy chicken breast," They just chop it in smaller pieces when they serve it so you have to watch out for the little bits of bone." Walking out to the jeep he told her how unexpected that had been and asked her why they didn't have that on the regular menu. "Because they're a Chinese-American restaurant," she said. "What we got was what they cook for themselves. That was real Chinese food." She hoped that he would finally kiss her when he dropped her off at the trailer that evening, but he still didn't. She walked into the small home and decided that if he didn't show her any sign that he was going to by the end of the weekend she was just going to go ahead and do it herself. ------------------------------------------------------ 1 A.S. Day 145 Brother Paul watched Derek and the pretty Chinese woman. She seemed very bright and animated when she was talking with him. Derek seemed to be very attentive to her as well. Ever since she had come up to talk to him, Derek had only focused on her and forgotten that Brother Paul was sitting here. She was a lovely woman he thought. She was obviously very pregnant and she was dressed in such a feminine way that every part of her attire complemented her even in this condition. He did not see a wedding ring on her finger though and this made him lower his opinion of her considerably. This lovely woman had obviously paid the price for her own immorality and still did not have the decency to even be ashamed of her condition. She should have had at least a smidgeon of propriety and surrendered herself in marriage to whatever man she had plainly been fornicating with as a measure of her repentance, but clearly she hadn't. As they continued to talk he went over in his mind appropriate brothers who could take this little harlot and guide her into her proper role as a good Christian wife. They were talking about some kind of work she was doing while he was considering suitable candidates for her. He kept hearing them mention the names of different doctors. She was telling Derek how much progress that they had made in the latest part of some experiment she was involved with. Brother Paul looked at Derek again and things fell into place. That woman he had guided into her proper role several weeks ago had mentioned this very woman just before Brother Paul had ushered her into her rightful position. This was the sister she had spoken of he realized. This was what had tickled his memory when he was listening to that confused soul blather on before he helped her to get her mind right. He looked at the diminutive pregnant woman again. That sister had said that the woman she was referring to had been a man before the Rapture. Yet as he watched her now he could not see anything about her that would even suggest that she had ever held even the hint, that within her delightfully feminine frame there had ever been a man there. If he hadn't known about what that confused woman had told him he would have dismissed the possibility entirely. If someone else were to have told him that the woman talking with Derek ever had a trace of masculinity within her he would have had a hard time even giving it credence. Derek. That was the connection he thought. When Derek had approached Cody for help in staging an incident so he could find a way to meet a new woman he had seen and get past her reluctance to speak; this must be the woman he had meant. Cody had told Brother Paul about what Derek had in mind when he had asked him about how Derek was doing. It had occurred to Brother Paul that being involved in such a thing would be a wonderful opportunity to return Derek to his proper place in the flock. If such a scheme were to get out of hand, who would Derek turn to, if not them once it had gone wrong and was over? But it hadn't worked. He looked at her again and tried to match the woman he saw talking to Derek to the brutal she-devil that Cody and Stephan had described to him when he saw them afterward and couldn't picture it. He had told Cody what he and Stephan must do and then dismissed the matter from his thoughts. When it had failed he had been more focused on using Derek's own guilt over his involvement with them to convince him of the need for him to return to them. Derek had been born into the Church. It was his rightful place even though his sinful Aunt had led him astray. Brother Paul looked at Derek and again cursed inwardly at the evil that Derek's tainted aunt had worked with him. If it hadn't been for her, Derek would have been raised in the Church and could have been one of Brother Paul's strong right hands today. More importantly, he was one of the Blessed and when the Rapture had swept so many away Derek might have been a good candidate for being a Brother himself. But that destiny had been denied the boy. At least though Brother Paul could console himself that she was even now just beginning her eternal suffering in the fires of hell. Because of her Derek would never take his rightful place and the best he would ever have in front of him was being a servant of those who would rule in the new world instead of being one of the ruling elite, the new Levites. But how to even get him that close to salvation was the dilemma facing him now. Brother Paul was still somewhat reluctant to use the Water of Truth on one of the Blessed if he didn't have to. Even so he had almost given up on convincing Derek with words already and as they were sitting at the table he had a vial of the drug ready in his pocket to use to bring the wayward boy back to the proper path when he judged the right time had come. Brother Paul's instructions to them may have failed to result in what he had intended, but as he thought about it and watched them it was obvious that clearly Derek had formed a close relationship with this woman afterward. She was the key he had been looking for with Derek he realized. He looked around while they continued talking and considered the little coffee shop. When Derek's parents had operated this location as a Christian book store before their deaths, the income they had provided the Church had been a welcome addition to furthering the Lord's goals. After Derek had been given into the hands of his sinful Aunt, that loss had been felt strongly by them then. Her actions in closing the outpost of faith in favor of this place had grated on him in more ways than just financial. But he had to admit, looking around at what she had built in its place, that before she had been sent to her richly deserved punishment in hell, what she had built was much more successful than what Derek's parents had owned. Now of course the Church would not miss the contribution this place would have made to them, but when he succeeded in returning Derek to the fold, he would feel great satisfaction that Derek's sinful Aunt's work in life would be returned to its proper role in supporting the advancement of the faith. He looked at the both of them again as they talked. Yes, she was the key he needed. He discarded the mental list he had been compiling for her and began considering other options. There was something he had been discussing with Brother John recently. What he had been talking about may be much more useful to them if they used it in this fashion. It may even be a better use than the one they had discussed in their efforts to find more effective ways to serve the Lord. A test then would be in order. He looked again at the woman. She had been a surprising source of inspiration to him the last few minutes and Brother Paul was certain it was the Lord's hand actively guiding him right this moment. The woman finished up talking and told Derek that she had to be getting back to visit with L.J. Her fingertips lingered against Derek's as she reluctantly rose to leave. They watched her walk slowly away and down the road to this institute she had mentioned in her conversation with Derek. Brother Paul looked at him. His eyes were following her until she finally passed from sight. "Such a lovely and charming young woman," Brother Paul said. "She just seemed to light up the whole table while she was here," he lied of course. In his personal opinion the woman should have remained in silence and not interrupted them. "Jenny?" Derek said. "Yeah, she is great." "And she seemed particularly taken with you brother Derek," he said. "Yeah, we've gotten pretty close the last couple of months," he said. "I do hope that your close relationship had not brought you both into immoral actions," he chided. "No," Derek said to him. His tone was a little annoyed. He still was under the mistaken impression that how he conducted his life was not any business of Brother Paul's. "I've just been taking care of her since she got too big to drive herself around," he said. "Admirable behavior brother," he said. "A wonderful example of Christian charity, and clearly she does appreciate the sacrifice you make for her. She seemed positively enamored with you just now." "That is new," he admitted. "The last few days it seems like when she is here every spare moment is like that." "And she is the young woman that you mentioned before?" Brother Paul asked. "Oh, yeah that's her," he said. "Brother Derek, I don't know the young lady, other than what you have told me, but if you'll bear with me I'd like to make you a suggestion," Brother Paul said. "I'm just a humble servant of the Lord and not in any way a worldly man, but it seems to me that she was making an excuse to spend time with you just now, perhaps I'm mistaken though." He watched Derek closely. Most of the time when he came to talk with him he could tell that Derek was just being polite with him, but this time he was paying close attention. Yes, she definitely is the key he thought. "But if I'm not, then perhaps you should find some way to see if that is the case. Dinner possibly, at your home. Now if we are misreading the young lady, then at the very worst she will politely refuse and at the very least you'll have some charming company for the evening," he continued. "We've already gone out a lot," Derek said. "I come over to her place almost every weekend to cook out, especially when her family is down to see her," he said. "Why that is very encouraging news, brother Derek. And her family? How do they view you?" he asked. "We get along," he said. "They're good people, I like them. They seem to like me." "That is truly marvelous to hear brother. But I can't help but feel though, that in such a familial situation that you wouldn't be able to truly gauge the young woman's outlook towards you properly," he said. "Now, as I said, I don't really know the young woman, but if she is really seeking a way to spend more time with you as you noted, and she does have feelings that she hasn't shared with you, at the very best she would seize that opportunity to let you know that she is receptive to your attentions now." "Either way, I think you would regret not finding out. And I do hope that if it is the last reason that you remember that we would be so pleased to see you both as members of our little flock. I tell you it would surely do our hearts good to see the both of you in the fold," he said. Brother Paul rose from the table and picked up the bag he had placed next to his chair. "I must be going now brother Derek. But it has been so very good to talk with you today." Brother Paul walked away to his car. He would have to make the time to come by a little more often now to see if his suggestions had taken root. ------------------------------------- 1 A.S. Day 145 Derek looked at Jenny sitting outside at the tables in front. She was drinking her tea and reading again. She had finished Agatha Christie about a month ago. Lately she had been reading old Dashell Hammet stories. Since he had taken over driving her around, her being at Java Jolts almost all the time was not an unusual thing to see. Most of the other regulars would immediately ask him where she was if they came in and she wasn't at her usual table. Derek found himself feeling antsy when he looked out and didn't see her there. Not seeing her in the little nest she had made there for herself made him feel out of sorts, like some pillar that held up a part of his life was missing. She wasn't always there of course. When her family was down she only stopped by for short visits and you wouldn't see her back here until they concluded their visit. "Jeez Derek, just go over and talk to her already," Mindy said to him. "You look like a dog on a broken leash trying to decided if you should leave home without your owner." "I can't go yet Mindy," he said. "I need to ask her something and I want to do it when I take her home, not here." Mindy stopped and looked at him. "Whoa, you're going to ask her to marry you aren't you?" he said his face lighting up. Derek looked back at him. "No, Mindy, I'm not. Where did you even get that?" Mindy cocked his head and looked at Derek. "Hello!" he said. "Ex- girlfriend here. I know what you look like when you're in love. And you've got it worse for her than you ever had for me." "Mindy you know I just want to help her out, we're just... "Good friends," he interrupted. "Yeah, I've been hearing that from you for weeks. And you're as full of shit now when you say it as you were the first time it stopped being true." Mindy reached out and put his hand on Derek's arm. "Derek, I don't know what you're planning, but anyone with a half a brain who has seen you two together the last couple of months can tell you are in love with her. And speaking as your ex-girlfriend and an ex-woman, after seeing her this last week around you I think she just realized that she loves you too." Derek looked back at Jenny. She was looking up from her book and watching them through the glass. No, that wasn't exactly right. She was watching him. She saw him looking and dropped her gaze back into the book again. Mindy came up from behind him. "All week she has been sitting so she can look in here. And I think she's been on the same page of that book for over an hour," he said. Derek hadn't noticed that, but Mindy was right. Before Jenny had always sat facing the road when she was outside, but now that Mindy said it, he couldn't remember seeing her do that at all recently. "So what are you going to ask her that's so important that you can't do it here?" Mindy asked. "I wanted to ask her over to my place for a date," he said quietly. "Are you kidding?" Mindy said. "You guys have been dating for weeks, even if both of you refuse to call it that. You already do everything together. Everyone around here already knows she's practically your girlfriend." "What, you mean she's not?" Teddy chimed in with her high pixie voice. She was openly listening to Derek and Mindy from her table by the counter. "Can it Teddy," Derek said to her. "You know she isn't." "I'm with Mindy on this," she came back at him. "That's bullshit. Everyone around here knows you two are an item." "It can't be that obvious," he said turning back to Mindy. Mindy snorted. "It's been obvious since the first time she walked past the window you've had a thing for her. Jeez Derek, wake up. When's the last time you ever asked her to pay for anything here." Derek looked away, he already knew the answer. "You can't think of it can you," Mindy said. "Cause you don't want her money, you want her." Mindy put his hand on Derek's back. "Just ask her man. You ask her on an official date and I promise you she'll say yes." Mindy turned away and started setting up a couple pots of regular coffee to brew. "And if you don't ask her, I guarantee you she's out there trying to think of some way that she can ask you right now. So just ask her and get it over with." Derek flipped the counter up to walk out and reached for a mug of the tea that Jenny liked to drink. "Ok, I'll do it now." "Good I'm glad that's finally decided," Mindy said. "So Derek," he said as Derek started to walk to the door. "Can I be your best man?" "Oh come on Mindy," Derek said reaching around for a towel that wasn't there to throw at him. Mindy laughed at him and dangled a towel just out of reach. Derek was coming over to her with another tea. He put it on the table for her and she touched his hand lightly and said thanks to him. Jenny felt so transparent, but she couldn't help herself. She needed to touch him even if it was just briefly like now. "Hey Jenny," he said. "What are you doing tomorrow night after you finish at the institute?" he sounded a bit nervous. She looked up at him. She had a hint of a smile on her lips. She also had gone all the way out on her make up as well he noticed. She usually didn't do that either and now that he thought about it he knew exactly when she had started doing that. "Nothing really, what did you have in mind?" she asked him leaning a little toward him. "I wanted to know if you wanted to have dinner at my place," he blurted out. "I've been to your trailer so many times now and I really haven't asked you over and I thought we could just hang out there." Jenny raised a finger and held it up to his lips. "Shush," she said. "Of course I'll come over," she said. "We've been eating out together almost all the time already. So what could possibly make you think that I suddenly wouldn't want to come now." Derek had sat down when he came over. Now he leaned forward towards her. She felt her breath rush in as he came closer and felt a warm flush all over her body. "Because Jenny this is different," he said taking a deep breath. "Jenny I want to have you over with me as a woman. And not just a friend. I want you with me because you are a woman that I want to be with if that makes any sense. I want to have a nice time with you, just the two of us. No expectations. Just us enjoying being with each other, but I don't want to do it as friends because you mean more to me than just a friend." Oh god she thought. He did it. He really did it. He was watching her waiting for her answer. She realized that her foot was shaking under the table. "I'm not trying to get you to have sex with me," he said quickly. "I just.. She put her finger on his lips again. "Shush," she said again. Jenny felt a little thrill go through her. She decided that she liked doing that to him. She moved her hand from his lips to cup the side of his face and looked steadily at him. "Of course I want to be with you tomorrow night," she said to him softly, deliberately. Cheers erupting from inside Java Jolts made both of them look inside. All of the regulars were clapping and hooting in celebration. Mindy, with his mouth open, was walking around the room exchanging high-fives with them. "If I didn't know any better," she said. "I'd say Mindy just won the pool." "What pool?" he asked. "You don't think they didn't have a pool on us? she answered. "I believe he did win then," Derek said. "Excuse me," he said. "I have to go kill Mindy now." He turned and stalked back into the coffee shop. As he went into the door she shouted to him to make sure he left enough for her to kill when he was done. Mindy fake cowered and retreated to the back room with Derek in hot pursuit. Jenny put her forehead into her hand and just laughed at them. She should have been feeling a little embarrassed by the commotion, but she felt too happy to care.
