Undercover

I cried myself to sleep for the first week of Jake being undercover. I slept in his t-shirts and didn't really leave the apartment unless I absolutly had to. Hope kept asking for Jake at night when she couldn't sleep, but the best I could do was give her his top and teddy bear he had given her. She takes that bear with her everywhere, she even has to have it sit on the side of the sink when she goes in the bathroom because she refuses to let it out of her sight. I asked her why a while back but all she said was, 'Uncle Jake asked me to keep it safe, and he would come home. I want him back.' So ever since I've stopped questioning it.

For the six weeks I had my stupid leg cast on for, Rosa was living with me to help around the house, look after Hope, take her to school on her days off and pick her up as well. I honestly couldn't have asked for better help. She still took Hope out for their weekly dinner date to keep Hope on as normal of a schedule we could get with our jobs. So Holt and Kevin still took had her once ever two weeks for a weekend sleepover but they also now took me, Liam and Hope out on a Saturday afternoon, when they didn't have her, for ice-cream, which is pretty fun. I've been working my way thourogh the 31 flavours with Liam, Holt and Kevin thinks that's too many flavours, but whatever makes us happy they say.

When Hope's school play came around, Rosa, Holt, Kevin, Liam and I were sat in the front row. There was an empty seat next to me that was ment for Jake, as Hope made me give the front desk his ticket incase he showed up. So naturlly when he didn't, I bought the video of the entire play for him to watch when he finally came home.
 
When it was Hope's birthday , we were hitting the five month mark without Jake being here. However, the morning of, we woke up to find a card for Hope that Jake had sent her and inside there was $20 and the promise he would take her out to spend it as soon as he could. Because of this Hope made my put the $20 in the safe until she could spend it. I agreed and now now it's been sat there for a month.

I found out that Jake was coming home the other day and the team were gonna do a raid of someone's wedding. I tried to get myself on the team but Holt told me it would be better if I stayed at home and he would bring Jake to my place as soon as it was safe. Kevin offered to take Hope so I could have the night a lone with him, I agreed and promised her I would let her see him the next day. She only agreed to this because I said I would get Grandpa Holt to phone her as soon as Jake and him were in the car.

Someone knocks on the door franticly, making me jump in suprise. I quickly run over to the door and swing it open finding Jake on the other side dressed in a gray suit, a black shirt and some jewlery. Before I even know it, he engulfs me in a hug, even going as far to lift me slightly from the floor, laughing when i yelp. I can't help but wrap my arms around him, half because I'm afraid he's not really here, and the other half because I want to hug him back. When I pull away, Jake is grinning at me, that crooked smile I love so much and my heart flutters.

I stand on my tippy toes and gently pull him forward by his jacket and just pause for a second looking into his eyes to make sure he wants this. I see the uncertainty and fear because its been so long but behind all of that I see a want, a need even. I finally close the distance between us. Jake frezzes beneath me for a second but he slowly starts to kiss back. His lips are ever so slightly dry and cracked, exactly like they were six months ago, not that I minded, regardless, they felt increadible after so long with out them.

I slowly let go of his suit jacket with one of my hands, slowly reatching up and slipping it behind Jake's head, gently pulling at the hair on the back of his head. A tiny moan escapes him, causing me to smirk into the kiss. I twist my body to stand in front of him, pushing my body against his, my other hand moving from his jacket to join my other hand in his hair.

My tiny gasp gets lost in the kiss whe I feel his lightly shaking hands find thre way to my waist, his hands resting gently on my body. I silently encourage him by pushing my body as close as I could get it to his, my hips brushing against his, his belt digging into me.
