:: xliii. | until i lose my breathAnother morning, but at Jj's apartment. It was a peaceful night because Henry was at his dad's place for a couple of days, according to jj and will's co parent schedule. Just as the sun came up, jj was already out the bed, getting ready and making coffee while Vanessa and Cole were still asleep.
Vanessa wasn't sure if she should sleep in the same bed as jj, but was convinced otherwise and besides, jj only had one extra room which was for Cole.
After thirty minutes, jj was about to head out the door but quickly realized that she was forgetting something ——— her phone. So she placed her things down on the couch and rushed back to the bedroom. And just as she saw, Vanessa was just waking up. Or so jj thought she was, but no, Vanessa was just turning around in her sleep.
Jj thought it was cute and just stared at her sleeping for a moment. They weren't together yet, but she already knew she was lucky. After another couple of seconds, Jennifer turned around and began to head out the bedroom door but suddenly stopped.
"Heading to work?"
Jj turned around at the sound of the voice, "And you're supposed to be sleep."
Vanessa sat up, "Couldn't help but wake up. My body felt you leaving."
Jj lightly chuckled, "Never heard that one before."
"Can I get a hug at least?" Vanessa opened her arms.
Jennifer walked over to Vanessa and leaned down, wrapping her in an embrace. Because jj needed to get to work, the hug didn't quite last long. She pulled away and as she did, her eyes glanced down to Vanessa's lips ———- lingering on them for only a moment before stepping back.
