Hi everyone, you're probably thinking WTF I thought this was a oneshot, but I've decided to now make it a series of one shots based on Nancy and Ned scened from the Files. The first six or so I'm going to do will be from the results of the poll I've had up on my profile. Smile and Say Murder will be first as that was one of the two equally most popular. Each oneshot will follow a similar patter to Revenge. If you have any ideas of requests for scenes from any of the Files, please let me know!
REVENGE.
This is from ND Files #60, Poison Pen. If you haven't read the book, there is this bit with Nancy and Ned when they are inspecting a car to see if its breaks were tampered with, and I will quote below what they say, but in the book those lines weren't followed up on, so this is my take on what happened : )
(Sorry if that totally made no sense).
"Oh, but you have to fix the car today," she whined. "We need it." She grasped Ned's arm possessively. "Today is our one year anniversary, and this is the car that we rode in on our very first date. We have such a big day planned, and if I don't get to ride in this car today, I'll just have a fit!" She squeezed Ned's arm. "Honey, can't you talk to him?"
Ned glanced down at her in surprise, and Nancy gave him a discreet kick on the ankle. "Er- that's right," Ned said quickly. He leaned toward Ernie, lowering his voice. "Let me tell you, you don't want to be around this girl when she's having a fit. It's not a pretty sight." Looking back at Nancy, he shot her a quick wink. Oooh! I'll get him for that later, she thought.
So that's the scene, and this is my version of her getting him back later, along with an awkward interruption from Nancy's dad.
"I can't believe you said that!" Nancy Drew said to her boyfriend, Ned Nickerson, as they walked into her house for dinner later on that day.
Ned laughed. "What? it was just a joke. Besides, you're the one who started it," he reminded her with a grin and a quick nudge to her ribs.
"I know, I know. Just be warned- I might have to get back at you," Nancy replied as she led him up to her room. They still had an hour or so before dinner, and she wanted to go over the case with Ned in the mean time. And possibly get a little revenge on his earlier comment at the garage.
"So," Nancy said to Ned, sitting down on her bed with her legs crossed beneath her, "What exactly am I like when I have a fit, Ned?"
Ned sat down beside her and rested his hands on her knees, "Well," he started, a joking gleam in his eyes, "From the few times I can remember you really having a go at someone- usually during a case, or now and again at me," he added with a grin, "You are always in charge, people listen to you," he leaned closer, "There's this fire in your eyes," he moved closer again, the joking look gone from his eyes, "Your face is usually slightly flushed," closer, "And you always look incredibly sexy," so close, "Like right now…"
Nancy felt her heart beat double time. Ned's lips were less than an inch away, his hands had moved up to clasp at the back of neck, and hers had somehow made their way into a similar position across his shoulders.
"I love you, Nancy," Ned whispered against her lips before claiming them fully with his.
Nancy's eyes fluttered shut as his lips pressed against hers in a kiss that was passionate, yet soft and loving at the same time. During the kiss Ned's hands had moved lower, where they were now moving up and down, gently stroking her back.
Nancy leaned back a little, thinking her bed head was behind her to lean against, but it must have been further than she'd thought, because her back was almost against the mattress. And Ned was almost on top of her. Nancy wasn't particularly comfortable with their position, but at the same time she didn't want to break the kiss.
Ned was leaning over her, his hands moving back to her shoulders to avoid being squashed underneath their now pressed together bodies. Nancy trailed her fingers under his t-shirt to stroke his back as Ned's fingers moved through her hair.
Finally the two broke for air and Ned rolled off Nancy. "Wow," Nancy finally managed.
Ned grinned. "Yeah. Nan, that was-"
"Amazing," she finished.
Ned took a deep breath, "Yeah, that pretty much sums it up. I mean, we've never had a kiss like that before. Is that how you always act when you want to get revenge on someone?" he asked with a sly smile.
Nancy blushed. "Um, not quite. It's usually more like this," she said suddenly, diving on top of him this time and tickling his ribs and under his arms. Ned squirmed to get away, but Nancy planted her knees firmly either side of him, still tickling.
Ned eventually made a real attempt to move and they wrestled until Ned was on top of her again. Before Nancy realized what had happened, her lips were pressed against Ned's in a kiss that was more heated than the last. Ned's shirt was pushed up around his chest and, and his hands had found their way into her hair and just under her top.
"Ahem."
A cough from the doorway suddenly made them pull apart. Nancy gasped as she noticed who was standing there.
"Dad!" she exclaimed as she and Ned quickly sat up. "We were just…"
"Kissing on your bed?" Carson supplied, a slightly amused look on his face.
Nancy blushed. "Um, yeah, pretty much."
Carson nodded. "Nancy can I talk to you for a minute, alone?"
She nodded and followed her dad to his room, where he closed the door.
"Look, Nan," Carson started, "I know you're a young women now, I know you're responsible, and I trust you one hundred percent, it's just… Well, you and Ned seemed to be in a very compromising position just then, and I don't know how far you've gone, but-"
"Dad!" Nancy suddenly exclaimed, "There's nothing to worry about, believe me. We haven't gone that far, don't worry. But even if we had or were going to, I know the risks and everything."
Carson nodded. "I know. I guess it's just sometimes hard for me to accept that you're growing up."
Nancy smiled and stood up to give her dad a hug. "You have nothing to worry about."
Carson hugged his daughter back. "Ok. But, hey, I think you'd better go and see that young man of yours- he's probably getting pretty anxious by now."
Nancy laughed. "Probably," she said as she headed back to her room.
Ned was still sitting on her bed, his chin resting in his hands. Nancy went over and put her arm around him, resting her head on his shoulder.
They were quite for a moment, then Ned turned to face her. "Nan, I'm really sorry. We shouldn't have been making out like that with your dad just down the hall. I was the one who started it, and I guess I just got caught up in the moment," he said with a small smile.
Nancy smoothed his hair and kissed his cheek. "Hey, it's no biggie. Dad's cool- he was just a little freaked at first. Anyway, weren't you the one who said I started it before?" she asked with a grin.
Ned smiled. "I guess we both started it. But for now I think we should just save the revenge tactics for when we're alone. Deal?"
Nancy laughed. "Deal."
Ok, so that went in a completely different direction to what I'd planned, but oh well. Hope you enjoyed. Please review : )
