Ruby sat up, watching as JJ stood in front of the door, anxiously biting on his bottom lip.
" I..I can't do it.." he breathed out, going back over to her, "it's okay.." she reassured, automatically taking him into her arms.
She expected to hear the shaky breaths, the rapid pounding of his heart.. but instead she was met with soft breathing and a normal heartbeat.
" JJ.." she said softly, gaining his attention, " hm..?" He hummed, moving his head from her neck, " you're calm.." she said with a smile.
Ruby watched as JJ's expression went from confusion and then to shock, his hand going to his chest to feel his own heart- and it was true, he was calm.
"I'm so proud of you" she said and pulled him into a hug, " how-what?" He said in disbelief, " you're here and you're calm.." she said happily, nuzzling her cheek against his chest.
JJ chuckled and rubbed the back of her head lovingly, " it's only because you're here.." he admitted, gently kissing her forehead.
" well whatever the reason is I'm just happy that you're finally okay.." she said quietly, fixing his bracelets.
He looked at her, taking her in for a moment before getting an idea, " Rubes.." he said quietly, " hm..?" She hummed, looking up at him.
He bit on his bottom lip and rested his hands on her waist, " can you make my heart race in a good way..?" He asked and she smiled, pushing him down onto the bed.
She straddled his lap, leaning down and kissing him deeply, intertwining their hands together and gently squeezing.
He pulled her closer, smiling against the kiss as they made out on his bed- and suddenly he was questioning why he'd never done this before.
JJ knew Ruby was strong, she'd stood up to Luke on more than one occasion, but JJ would never let her in his room unless absolutely necessary.
Most of the time she only got a quick glimpse of his room, she'd never tell him but the butterfly tattoo on her hip was actually inspired by one of the drawings he'd done, she'd seen it on his wall while coming to get him one night and fell in love with it.
Ruby was the only one that knew JJ was actually an artist, he was constantly drawing something and she remembered when they were kids how he practically begged Luke to get him a paint set.
So that Christmas Ruby saved up and bought it for him. But it was their little secret, JJ didn't want to come off as girly so he kept his talent a secret.
She sat up on his lap and took off his shirt, kissing across his chest, smiling as she felt his pulse leap from her touch.
He was in for some fun..
