Theodore J. Jarvis Johnson was a basketball superstar and a hopeless romantic. He longed to be in a relationship where he's loved, respected and appreciated. It's no secret that he's been searching for Ms. Right ever since high school.
TJ also happens to be a huge music lover. Thanks to his mother, Portia, who was a famous singer, he grew up listening to all kinds of music. From R&B, Hip Hop, Top 40 radio and even Jazz, music filled his ears and gave him some much needed comfort. He can even remember his mother singing to him before he goes to sleep at night because her voice was soothing and relaxing, then she would make sure that his boom box was placed right by his bedside so that he could listen to music while he was asleep.
TJ cherished the times that the soft sounds of the radio would fill his ears and provided him with some stress relief.
His father was also a famous basketball player. Harvey Johnson played for the Lakers and the Golden State Warriors competitively for 25 years before an knee injury permanently derailed his career. However, instead of wallowing in self pity and feeling sorry for himself, Harvey took the time to teach his only son how to play and be good at the sport. TJ became a faster learner under his father's guidance and fell in love with it from the moment he started dribbling the ball in their driveway. He knew what he wanted to do when he grew up.
By the time he entered high school, TJ wasted no time joining the Angel Grove basketball team. With his hard work and the lessons he father bestowed on him, he quickly became one of the most talked about athletes at AGH. However, TJ was also a honor roll student; always making sure that his grades were on the up and up so that he could continue to play basketball and strive to make it in the NBA in the not-so-distant future. He just wanted to make his family proud.
Meanwhile, Cassandra Michelle Chan, or Cassie as she would like to be called, was an aspiring singer and songwriter; having learned how to play piano and guitar when she was five years old. Both of her parents were successful musicians in their own right, so it was only fitting that Cassie would follow her parents' footsteps as she got older. Her father, Michael, was a successful producer, songwriter and arranger for the Japanese Jazz band, Hiroshima, who had a number one hit song "One Wish". Her mother, Tacoma, was also a successful songwriter and studio engineer and worked with some of the biggest names in the music industry at that time. In fact, the Chans even converted their pool house into their very own recording studio and Cassie would find herself recording demos of her own whenever she got the chance.
By the time she entered high school, Cassie was writing and producing her own music. Her demos started going around and got great reviews and by the time she reached her 12th grade year, a record executive from Los Angeles got a hold of her demo and invited her to perform at a talent showcase at a popular dance club in Hollywood. Needless to say, she was a hit and before she received her high school diploma, Cassie was offered a record deal.
She didn't have to think twice about signing on the dotted line. Shortly after graduating from Angel Grove High, she immediately started working on her debut album.
TJ and Cassie had grown up together in Angel Grove. They lived right across the street from each other and were pretty much inseparable when they were kids. Both of their families had a sinking feeling that when they grow up, their kids would fall in love with each other and get married. It was only a matter of time and patience on both sides.
However, TJ and Cassie didn't know it at the time. They always saw themselves as family, brother and sister even. Besides, they both didn't have time to find that special someone in their lives because they were too busy working on their lifelong goals. No, remaining best friends suited them just fine.
It wasn't until they went their separate ways after graduating high school that things did start changing between them. TJ and Cassie just didn't want their lifelong friendship to be ruined, so they didn't pursue a romantic relationship with one another. They were oblivious to the fact that their feelings for each other was growing, but they didn't see it coming at the time.
It wouldn't be long before fate would bring them back to one another.
In the meantime, TJ decided to go to college to continue his education, rather than jumping straight into the NBA (National Basketball Association). He joined the UCLA men's basketball team while pursuing a degree in business and sports management. It wasn't long that his name became a hot commodity among his college classmates and basketball teammates. Even the coaches were impressed with his skills, but also his dedication to have something to fall back on in case his chances of getting drafted in the NBA doesn't pan out in the long run. TJ just wanted to make himself and his family proud.
Cassie, on the other hand, her debut Jazz and Pop album Daddy's Little Rocker Chick came out to critical and commercial acclaim. The album went gold within just two weeks of its release and she immediately went out on a promotional tour to promote the album. It felt so good for her to see all her hard work was finally paying off. Whenever she meet fans, they would rant and rave on how amazing she sounded on the record and would thank her for putting out some quality music. Cassie was completely floored and flattered by all the attention she was getting and she knew, without a shadow of a doubt, that this was just the beginning.
As for TJ, his future also looked bright once he graduated from UCLA.
He was finally drafted in the NBA, after the UCLA men basketball team won the NCAA tournament. He ended up with the Los Angeles Lakers, the same team that his father played for 12 years. TJ was humbled, excited and anxious to be able to play on a national level and he vowed to not let his father down. Within a year, he was named rookie of the year and even got to play in the playoffs, which was a huge honor for him. TJ was making a name for himself and carrying on the Johnson legacy.
TJ and Cassie would not see each other again until his Lakers teammates invited him to attend a concert in the park in Los Angeles. Basketball season was over with and the players took advantage of the down time they got to have, so TJ accepted the invitation without hesitation. The park was filled with so many people as he searched for a spot near the stage, which he was able to find within several minutes and two attempts to maneuver around the freshly green grass. He laid his blanket down and sat down, then he popped open a bottle of water and took a big sip. He couldn't wait to get this show on the road.
"All right, ladies and gentlemen, put your hands together and welcome international recording superstar...Cassie Chan!" the announcer said over the PA as everyone in the park erupted into a loud cheer.
TJ almost spit his water out of his mouth when he heard her name. Sure enough, after a few moments, the stage was lit up and there she was, Cassie, his childhood best friend and secret crush, standing on stage and soaking in the total elation of the crowd. She had a big smile on her face as she sat at the piano and mentally prepared herself to play the first number. Taking a deep breath, she placed her fingers on the keys and began to play.
For the next two and a half hours, TJ was mesmerized by Cassie's voice; the way her songs filled his ears and made his heart beat madly. It wasn't long before he started mouthing off the words to the songs she wrote and he was captivated at the sight of her singing her heart out. It was as if she was giving everything she got whenever she performs.
As for Cassie, as she continued performing, she placed her hand above her forehead so she could look out at the audience. One familiar face captured her attention and she couldn't help but to let a big grin form on her face. She knew that face anywhere.
She found TJ Johnson.
Immediately, as soon as she laid her brown eyes on him, she winked; signaling him to look at her, for which he did right away. He winked right back at her and smiled, then he gave her a thumb's up; silently letting her know that he was proud of her and he'll catch up with her after the show. He'll make it his business to see her again before it's all said and done.
After the show, Cassie was back in her hotel room, lounging around on the plush sofa, nursing a glass of red wine and began to unwind after an epic show tonight. She was overcome with emotion after receiving a standing ovation from the audience. She never thought in a million years that she would get this kind of reception from the crowd; especially since she performed outdoors. She'll cherish that memory for the rest of her life.
A knock on her door jolted her out of her deep thoughts. Setting her wine glass down on the glass table, she got up from the sofa and headed right for the door. Peeking through the peephole, a huge smile was formed on her face when she came face to face with the man she knew all too well.
TJ.
Without hesitation, she opened the door and leaped right into his arms, catching him off guard for a second before wrapping his arms around her waist and twirling her around for a few seconds. He sat her back down and took a moment to look at his best friend. She was even more beautiful than the last time he saw her, even without any makeup. He mentally kicked himself for not making his feelings known to her back then.
Well, that was then and this is now. They were now grown up and nothing was standing in their way this time. Before the night is completely over with, two hearts will be united as one.
"Cass, you look stunning," he said, finally breaking the silence between them.
She smiled timidly at him. "Oh, come on, Teej. I'm wearing a fluffy bathrobe and I have no makeup on. Clearly I don't look stunning."
"Oh, on the contrary, my dear, you do look stunning. Even more so now than ever before," he complimented with a smile of his own.
Cassie playfully punched his arm. "You're such a suck up, Johnson."
TJ wrapped his arm around her shoulder and kissed her forehead gently, which caught her completely off guard. In all the years she had known him, he'd never shown this kind of affection towards her. The signs were there, but she was completely oblivious to what he was trying to tell her. Or show her.
"On the serious tip, though, you kicked ass tonight, Cass. All that hard work really paid off for you," he said as they both stepped inside her hotel room. She closed the door; not before placing a 'do not disturb' sign on the doorknob. Something big was about to go down in that room tonight.
"Ah, thanks, Teej. I must admit, I was pretty nervous at first; having to perform in front of all those people in the park. I mean, it took me a while to adjust being on a grand stage. However, when I started performing my first song, all that nervousness went away; especially when I spotted you sitting right near the stage," she explained as they both sat down on the sofa. She poured him a glass of red wine and handed the glass right over to him.
TJ took a nice sip before reaching over and grabbing her hand gently. "I always knew you were talented, Cass. You're a gifted singer and songwriter. I've always admired you for following your dreams."
"Same with you, Teej. I mean, look at you; basketball superstar and college graduate. I'm really proud of you," Cassie said as she clinked her glass with his.
"I'm proud of us. We both realized our dreams and made it happen. I think that says a lot about us," he agreed with a smile on his face.
"Well, with that being said, is there a special someone in your life?" she asked, looking curious and silently hoping that he'd say no.
TJ shook his head. "No. I'm not seeing anyone. I mean, I dated off and on during my college years, but because I was so focused on my studies and making it in the NBA that having a serious girlfriend was the last thing on my mind. What about you? Seeing anyone right now?"
"I'm in the same shape as you. I'm so focused on my career that a romantic relationship wasn't in my cup of tea. I dated off and on myself, but I've spent so much time traveling, performing and being in the studio that I had no need to have a boyfriend," she told him with a timid smile on her face.
"You know something, Cass? I always wondered why we never dated each other," he asked as he scooted closer to her, wanting to be near her.
She shrugged her shoulders and sat her wine glass down on the table. "I don't know, Teej. We've been friends for so long. I never knew you had feelings for me and vice versa. I guess we didn't wanna ruin our lifelong friendship."
He sat his glass down on the table and wrapped his arm around her shoulders again. Surprisingly, she laid her head on his broad shoulder and let out a deep sigh. He kissed her forehead again and squeezed her closer to his body.
"Well, we may have been oblivious to our feelings, but our family didn't. Our mothers especially hoped that we get together. Hell, they even predicted that we be married," TJ confessed, which caused Cassie to shoot her head up and look at him in disbelief.
"Are you kidding me? Our parents wanted us to get together? I can't believe it," she snorted, laughing sarcastically.
"Well, to be honest, I kinda hoped that you and I would be more than friends. I hope that it's not too late," he whispered against her face, which made her heart beat madly. God, just his deep, husky voice alone made her shiver with delight.
"At this point, Teej, anything's possible," she whispered back as they looked into each other's eyes. Without warning, their faces inched closer and before they even had time to comprehend, their lips met each other. Cassie closed her eyes and felt the fullness of his soft lips pressing against hers gently. That one simple kiss that made her bones melt like butter.
She never wanted it to end.
Fortunately for her, TJ didn't pull away. In fact, he parted her lips and slid his tongue right inside her mouth, causing her to moan softly. It wasn't long before they fell right into each other's arms; their hands exploring each other in ways they never thought possible. The temperature in her hotel room was already reaching its boiling point and they weren't about to put a stop to it anytime soon.
When air finally became a problem, they reluctantly pulled apart. Both of them were breathing heavily, looking at each other with smoldering looks on their faces and not wanting the night to end.
"Are you sure about this, Cassie? We don't have to do anything if it's gonna make you uncomfortable," TJ said sincerely, his hand cupped her flushed face affectionately.
Cassie smiled brightly as his sweet declaration. "I'm sure. I've never been so sure in my life. I need you tonight."
With that being said, he carefully scooped her up in his arms and carried her right into the bedroom, kicking the door closed with his foot.
He carried her right over to the mattress and sat her down on her feet, then he came up right behind her and wrapped his arms around her waist; kissing the back of her neck and nibbling on her ear sensually as she started melting right into his arms. He untied the knot on her bathrobe and removed the garment away from her body, leaving her in her pink laced bra and matching pink laced boy shorts. He slipped his fingers inside her underwear and she had to gasp when she felt him rubbing her center. He grinned against her hair as he felt her juices coating his fingertips. He pulled his fingers out of her and brought his hand right up to his lips. Cassie's eyes were widened in shock when he stuck his fingers right inside his mouth and tasted her juices.
"Sweet," TJ groaned, smiling at her. She really didn't have time to comprehend what she just saw because within a matter of minutes, she was completely naked, laying on the bed and moaning loudly when she felt his hands cupping her breasts; his thumbs playing with her nipples.
"Oh, God," she panted loudly when he leaned down and captured a nipple right in his mouth; his teeth biting down on it as he was sucking and blowing on it. He did the same thing with her other nipple, which caused her head to thrash from side to side. She was withering in pleasure and it was a good thing that she was laying down on the bed because she would've passed out from the intensity of TJ's antics.
Before long, he leaned down and captured her lips with his; his tongue searching her for her as they worked to get his clothes removed. They want nothing to come between them when that special moment finally comes. It took a few minutes, however, when the last article of clothing was removed from his body, the childhood best friends knew that after tonight, nothing will ever be the same between them. There was no turning back.
And they didn't wanna go back. They were looking forward to the future.
Cassie felt TJ's weight pressing down on her when he moved on top of her. He got settled right between her outstretched thighs and aligned him aroused member against her core. She closed her eyes tightly as felt him start to enter her slowly; not wanting to rip her apart by going right in. She felt tears forming in her brown orbs and allowed her body to shudder from the incredible, but slightly painful sensation of him going within her depths. It wasn't until he was finally fully sated inside of her that the slight painful sensation became a dull ache. It was amazing that even after all these years, he knew her so well.
Wiggling her hips, she encouraged him to move. Bracing himself on his elbows, he began moving in and out of her in a gentle rhythm. He looked down at her and was pleased to see the pleasurable look on her face. He kept thrusting inside of her slowly, hitting her hot spots like a pro and making sure that he took his time with her. The last thing he needs to happen is to rush the night away.
As for Cassie, feeling him inside of her felt like home. She felt so safe and secure in his arms that she never wanted the moment to end. She lifted her hips and met his luscious strokes, not wanting him to do all the work. She wrapped her legs over his back and felt him go deeper inside of her with sensual precision. She gasped when she felt his lips sucking her neck; his teeth scraping her skin lightly. It wasn't long before he started picking up the pace.
As the night wore on, they were too busy being lost in each other's passion. They tossed and turned all over the bed; taking turns on who was on top and keeping the momentum going. It wasn't long before the pace was picked up and they both were working to reach their attended goal. As much as they would love to keep their lovemaking going, they knew it has to come to an end sometime.
Cassie tightened her legs over TJ's strong back and felt fireworks exploding in the back of her eyelids as he kept hammering deep inside of her; hitting her hot spots like a pro. She dug her fingers into his broad shoulders and moaned so loudly, her voice was about to give out. When his hand reached down between them and started fondling her bundle of her nerves, that finally became her undoing. She came hard; throwing her head back and screaming out his name as if her whole life depended on it. He buried his face in the crook of her neck and grunted when he finally spilled deep inside of her. He collapsed on top of her and started coming down from his high.
As they allowed themselves to cool down, he reluctantly removed himself from her and laid down on the mattress. She breathed heavily for a few seconds before laying her head on his chest. He wrapped his arms around her sweat drenched body and felt something he hadn't felt in a long time:
Complete.
"That was amazing," Cassie said, breaking the silence between them.
TJ smiled against her long dark hair. "You can say that again. It was well worth the wait."
"So, what happens now? We can't go back to being friends again. And, quite frankly, I don't want to go back," she confessed, looking up at him.
"I don't wanna go back, either. I don't know if you know this, Cass, but I love you. I've always loved you, ever since we were kids. I don't wanna lose you, especially after what happened between us. I hope there's still a chance for us to be together," he confessed, squeezing her closer to him.
She couldn't help but smile at his confession. "I love you, too, Theodore. And, as I mentioned before, at this point, anything's possible."
Three and a half years later, that possibility became a reality when TJ and Cassie tied the knot in a lavish wedding ceremony. Tacoma and Portia both had tears of happiness in their eyes as they watched their children pledge their undying love and devotion to one another. When the minister pronounced them husband and wife, the new Mr and Mrs. Johnson kissed passionately and romantically under the pale moonlight.
Their lifelong friendship and everlasting love proved to be rocking.
On all cylinders.
