JIM'S POV:

I did it...I told her. I told her I love her...shouldn't she be saying it back by now? I watched her every move. Not to be creepy, but for a reaction.

Her eyes were huge, changing all kinds of colors: pink, orange, deep pink, and yellow.

"(Y/n)?" I poked her cheek softly.

"Hmmmmm......?" She hummed. Tiny blooms started to grow in her hair.

I picked a bloomed flower and tucked it behind her ear. "Love?" I blushed at my own words.

She blushed darker than me and fully bloomed all the flowers in her hair. "Y-yes..?"

I smiled softly at her reaction. Okay so she heard me. Maybe she needs time to process it. I grabbed her hand. I wonder why she produces flowers in her hair. It's not a common thing she does. She must get super happy and-

"I love you too, Jim."

I snapped my attention at her. Did I hear her correctly?

She traced little hearts on my hand, smiling up at me. Her eyes were as pink as her cheeks. "D-d-did you hear me?" I said-"

"Y-yeah I heard you, I eh uh umm...heh." I was so lost for words. How could she fall in love ....with ME? I ain't special like her. She's waaay out of my league, and yet here we are, confessing our love to each other. Crazy how the world works-

Suddenly, I was blushing harder than (y/n). She had her arms wrapped around my neck, and she was kissing my jawline. "(Y/n)...what....whatcha....whatcha doing?" I placed a warm hand against her waist.

"Sorry..." She whispered in my ear, I shivered. "I just couldn't help it. You look really hot when you're thinking." She placed another kiss against the other side of my jawline. I leaned my head back, giving her more room.

She took that chance immediately. She unwrapped her arms as she kissed lower, placing small pecks against my neck. When she made it to the nape of my neck, she pulled away. That's it. I can't take it.

I quickly flipped us over to where (y/n) was below me, and I was pinning her down. I grabbed both wrists and pulled them above her head. There. So she won't turn me on with her touches. In theory.

She was blushing HARD. I smirked. Bet ya didn't see that coming. She smirked back, her eyes turning a dark pink. Shit that's hot. "W-whatcha doing, Jim?" I smiled at her. Word-taker.

I leaned in and barely brushed my lips against hers. "I...." I shut my eyes and kissed her softly. "Love...." I kissed her again. "You....(y/n)." I kissed her lips again and let go of her hands. Big mistake.

She wrapped her arm around my neck again and played with my little rat tail braid. With her free hand, she sloooowly rubbed against my exposed chest. I'm going crazy over here with your touches ma'am.

But your kisses are more distracting. Her soft lips against mine, her breath connecting with mine. Our bodies pressed up against each other, our hands all over each other. Best day of my life.

(Y/n) pulled away and panted against my lips. "We're making the windows foggy." She laughed softly as she rested her forehead against mine. I glanced at the blurry windows and smiled. "Well....." I got up off of her and walked over to the door.

"Well....?" (Y/n) sat up a bit, her eyes turning yellow.

I tore off my belt and locked the door with it, just so that Mom or Silver couldn't just burst in. I could see (y/n) blushing hard as more flowers bloomed. Her entire head is covered! How many more can she produce??

I turned back around, holding my pants up with one hand. "Welllllll.........." I slowly turned off the lantern light.

(Y/n) was blushed hard, and I could tell, even in the darkish room. I climbed back into bed with her and flipped her over to where she was sitting on me, and I was laying down.

My hand glided against her thigh, creating goosebumps. "Well......we could make them foggier.....if you want to."

She smiled and kissed me as a response. Thank god a grabbed a few condoms for the trip.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A little while later, (y/n) was fast asleep in my arms. I kissed her forehead softly. My little sleeping beauty.

What got my attention was the door. Someone was trying to get in. I covered (y/n)'s bare body and threw on my sweatpants. I quietly tippy toed to the door, taking off the belt lock I made earlier. I opened the door to see Mom.

"I was just checking to see if you two were okay."

"Yeah, we're alright. She's asleep right now." I whispered and looked behind me, smiling.

Mom smiled with me. "Did you tell her finally, son?"

I snapped my head at her and blushed. "Y-yeah. Yeah I did, Mom." I looked at ground, feeling awkward now.

Mom hugged me tight. "Oh I'm so glad, I'm so happy for you two."

I hugged back, smiling. "Thank you, but please don't tell the Dopplers. They'll have my head. Or Silver."

"Of course, sweetie, oh! Also, Amelia's and Delbert's idea worked, we're now cruising on water, if you would like to see."

"I would, but...." I looked back at sleeping (y/n). This is her trip, I should see it with her and enjoy it with her. "....but I'd like (y/n) to be by my side when I see it." I turned my head back towards Mom.

She was smiling big. "That's my boy, being the sweetest." She gave me another hug. "I'll be with Delbert and Amelia, I think Amelia and I were going to plan dinner."

"But isn't that-"

"Silver's duty? Yeah I know, but ever since you two had an argument, Silver's been cooped up in his little area in the pantry."

I frowned with guilt.

Mom rubbed my cheek with her thumb. "It's okay sweetheart, I'm sure he'll get over it, he's like me, protective."

I smiled softly, feeling a bit better. "I'll apologize to him when (y/n)'s distracted with something. I don't want her to hear everything, because not everything is nice."

"Good plan, honey, well, I'm going to Amelia's side now. See you two later." She smiled and left. I shut the door and shrugged off my sweatpants. I am NOT missing the opportunity to sleep NAKED with the hottest girl in the galaxy. I excitedly hopped into bed again, taking in her warmth.

Her scent is just so.... wow. Smells like firewood and fir tree, but it also smells like honeysuckle and dew drops. She smells like nature, and I love it so much. She's my wild girl.

I leaned my head on top of hers, and wrapped my arms around her, pulling her figure closer to me. She mumbled something like "yes I'm a natural blue". I shook my head slowly in confusion and amusement.

Goodnight my crazy sleep-talking girl. I'll be here when you wake up, then we'll go out and check out the water. I snuggled into her hair. You're safe with me, doll. I won't let anyone or anything hurt you. You're mine now.
