Hi I'm back hope you didn't miss me too much!

Please comment etc on this part ( it took me ages to write but I'm not entirely sure what happens in it) 

She meets the next boy (sort of) in the next part...


Jess POV:

It's been hard, really hard the last few weeks, looking after Luke and all the animals has had Sang exhausted from dawn till dusk. Charlie and Lola having been dropped off just a few hours after we got back from Erica's with Luke. Sang being Sang, can never say no, so she took them in and by evening they thought of her as their mum.

With Sam and Jeff living practically permanently in the sling slung around her shoulder and the two troublesome monkeys hanging on her constantly, her job has not been made any easier. I know I've been resenting Luke for the last two weeks, but I am used to Sang only trusting me. And I was annoyed at him for completely exhausting her every second of the day, in some twisted way I managed to make it his fault in my head. Admittedly I was not expecting her to trust him that quickly, it shocked me and I didn't have time to get used to it. Why did she sleep next to him that first night? Why did she trust him so quickly? What does she see in him that she doesn't see in my mum? When she slept all four of the babies between them after he came back injured...

I felt jealous, I know I did. But Sang saw it and the next day she somehow made more time to spend with me, despite everything else she had to contend with. For the last few weeks, she's ramped up my language lessons and now I'm almost fluent in Italian, we are going to start others soon, but she went with intensive Italian first as none of the boys spoke it. She hasn't said a word to me in English for the last week. Apparently learning by immersion or something. It lessoned the jealousy, but I was still expecting it to come back in full force when Luke woke up. Yet...

It hasn't.

Sitting on the bed laughing at Uncle all I can feel is content, like I just found my chosen family. It feels right. Luke with the arm not in a cast wrapped around Sang's shoulders looks more content and relaxed than I have ever seen, no tapping. And Sang, I would say she's glowing. Literally. I didn't realise that it was her first kiss when I suggested it. I read somewhere about coming out of bad memories by replacing them with good ones, it may be total garbage but it was worth a try, and I saw the way Luke was looking at Sang, he had it bad as soon as he met her, so any memory with her was going to be good.

It worked, but now I feel really bad that I was her first kiss... She's twenty for god's sake, I kind of assumed that everyone had their first kiss before then! Yet she doesn't seem bothered by it, in fact I think she loved it, when Luke kissed her again a moments later, I couldn't help but notice the grin that crept across her face, a lot with the bright red blush. She didn't pull away either and I decided that they both deserved that happiness, something else that lessoned the jealous twisting my stomach. They really did both deserve happiness.

We had both started reading the mission report on Luke, but Sang had stopped after the basic overview, saying that it had to be his decision to tell us. I wasn't sure I entirely agreed, thinking that we needed to be prepared if something went wrong, as Luke's break down proves, but Sang had locked the file down in her computer so that only Luke could unlock it, not sure how she locker herself out and I'm sure she could get in if she wanted but it showed she was serious about this.

At least everything feels fine, right, good, until Luke asks that question, the one we have been dreading answering. Sang said there was a chance that he would have forgotten stuff. We didn't think it would be her and the whole time that he spent here. Luckily that came back when she kissed him. But he still didn't remember why his here. I can get that, normally he would, if injured on a job, wake up surrounded by his team.
