the next morning

*amys pov*

i wake up slightly confused, i slept on the couch, which is rare because im usually able to drag myself up to my bed. my head is resting on something soft yet firm, i rub my eyes in confusion and lift my head up, its jakes thigh. holy shit, he slept over, which is crazy to me. i slowly sit up to avoid waking jake if he's even still sleeping. poor him, he had to sleep in a sitting position all night, i look over at him, head laid back and his body looking relaxed, he looks peaceful. i think my moving woke him up because i see him moving around slightly. he opens his eyes and also looks slightly confused. i guess he didn't realize he fell asleep and spent the night. "hey... uh good morning, is everything okay? sorry i fell asleep after you, you seemed so peaceful and i didn't wanna wake you" he says softly clearly still half asleep. "jake its okay, don't worry about it, honestly it felt nice, i felt safe, and for the first time in a while i actually slept" i smile lightly and get up. suddenly i feel myself get really nervous and shy, well i guess that's what happens when your co-worker comes over after work and you fall asleep on his lap so he spends the night. he smiles back at me, i can tell he's shy as well, but i mean who wouldn't be. "uh do you want some coffee?" i look back at him with another soft smile trying to lighten the mood. "yes that would be great actually" he says and lightly smiles back. i walk into the kitchen and start the coffee machine and take out two travel mugs. "well have to bring it with us, if we dont leave in the next ten minutes well be late" i say taking out the cream and sugar. "fuck i forgot we had work" he chuckles lightly "guess im wearing the same clothes as yesterday" he chuckles once more and i look down at myself "shit i have to change" i laugh along with him and start walking to my room "can you finish the coffee?" he nods while i step into the room and before closing the door i look at him "i like it-" he cuts me off "double double" he smiles "i know your order dont worry" we both smile and then i rush to get changed.

a few minutes later i step out of the room while quickly tying my hair, im wearing a grey pant suit with a purple blazer, my usual outfit. i step into the kitchen where i see jake finishing up the coffee. he turns around and smiles "you clean up nicely" he laughs lightly and smiles. "oh shut up dork" i laugh back and grab the cup of coffee and taste it "i gotta say, you nailed the coffee pretty damn well" i smile to him and he gives me a cocky smile "what can i say, im a coffee pro" i laugh and jokingly tell him to shut up then i check the time."hey coffee pro, we should get going" i say grabbing my bag, badge, phone and jacket. he grabs his jacket and checks that his badge and wallet are in there and that his phone is in his pocket. i open the door and let jake go first then behind him i close and lock the door. i start walking and jake follows me. "hey ames?" he stops and waits for me to turn around. "yeah?" i look back at him. "i had a really nice time last night, and im really glad you were able to sleep and feel good" he smiles softly and looks at me with soft eyes. " i had a nice time too jake, im glad you're here, thank you, seriously, for everything" i smile softly and place my hand on his shoulder. "okay jake we gotta go now" i chuckle lightly. "lets go ames" he smiles
