JAKE : 7:50 am
I woke up surprisingly early, which is weird for two reasons, first is I always wake up late, second reason is that I fell asleep at 3:00 am, thinking about her. Amy, my coworker, who's also my best friend. I wouldn't exchange her for anything, not even Charles.. I couldn't tell him that though, he's my best bud. But I want Amy to be something, more.

*4 knocks sound at the door*

"Amy, that's her knock!" I called out really high pitched, I probably shouldn't know what her 'knock' is, but whatever. I open the door ready to see the familiar face.

"Jake! woah, you're awake?" Amy blurted out in which Jake could tell was genuine shock, which he also could not blame her for.

"What can I say, im an early bird now!" I say jokingly, knowing if I was joking or not, still a complete lie, she laughs at what I said, oh, her laugh. The best thing in the world, she always laughs too hard so it's just silent laughing and then the occasional high pitched squeal trying to catch her breath.

"Well go get ready, im gonna go make breakfast."

"You came here to make breakfast?" I questioned, though not surprised, it's something she'd do, she always takes care of others, never herself. But I jump to go get ready, coming back 2 minutes later.

"You like?" I ask as I dramatically leap out from my doorframe.

"Your new shirt, very nice peralta. Come sit down, I made waffles!"

"Sweet! Oh these look good.." I complimented very genuinely, which wouldn't even be thought of as a lie because I devoured all 3 of my waffles in less than a minute.

"Jacob! Enjoy your meal, stop messing around!"

"Whoops, sorry mom!"

"Whateverr.." Amy rolls her eyes sarcastically.

We chat for another hour, until Amy unsurprisingly shrieks at the thought of being late.

"Come on Jake, we have to go! Just come in my car."

"Ookayyyy alright!"

We're in Amy's car driving to the precinct, I turn to look at her while she's focused driving, she's so beautiful, but I can't be thinking that. Amy is a fellow coworker, with a.. boyfriend. Teddy, or whatever.

We get to the precinct, Amy sits down at her desk, looking really anxious.

"Hey, Ames!"

"Yeah?"

"You okay, you look worried."

"I'm.. I'm okay, fine, better than ever!"

"Well now you're just lying, come on Ames. You can tell me, I swear!"

"Seriously Jake, there's nothing, thanks for worrying anyway, you're a great friend."

Friend. That stung. I mean, it did feel like getting stabbed a million times in the heart, I know she's with Teddy, but why? He's the most boring and secretive man ever, Amy always is stepping on eggshells around him, well that's what it looks like anyway, but almost on cue, that weirdo walks in.

NOTE!
sorry this chapter was SO short!! I just was in a rush to change it to Amy's pov, next chapter will probably be longer though.
