~15~|Monday/Walking Back| Entry #63 Part 1

(Y/n)'s POV: 

We all get back to Jays car. Tim and Jay talk as I plug the camera in setting it on the dashboard so both of them are in the frame "-get out of there okay. And I appreciate your guys help, I really do, but I'm good to walk from here" Tim says "you're going to walk from here" I ask getting out and sitting on the hood of the car "yeah" Tim says with his back facing Jay "that's like miles" Jay says "wouldn't be the first time" Tim says back and I say under my breath lighting a cigarette "what, so you're just going to walk away like nothing happened? You don't think you need any help, after all that" Jay asks kind of aggressively "I've got other problems I need to deal with right now, okay. First of all, I've got to go to my doctors office and explain why I called him up last night like it was some kind of big emergency and then just didn't show up. So if you'll at least let me deal with that, then we can figure out where it is we're going from here. But until then, just go back to wherever it is your holed up and just try not to say anything about this to anybody, alright" Tim asks as he walks away "okay, how long do you think it'll be" I ask "I've got Jays number" Tim says back "Alex said the same thing" Jay says getting in the car. I finish my cigarette and get off the hood and into the passenger seat, Jay starts the car and I turn the camera off and grab it putting it in my lap. 

Jaybirds POV:

We drive in silence for a bit "wanna head back to my house finish selling the furniture to the creepy neighbors, and stay there for a bit" (Y/n) asks "yeah sure" I say. After a while we pull into the hotel parking lot and grab our things, tossing them in the back, and heading back to (Y/n)'s house.

We pull into the driveway and I park, (Y/n) gets out "damn home sweet hell" she says grabbing her keys and unlocking the door I laugh at her 'home sweet hell' joke "no I'm serious Jay don't laugh at me" she smiles and chuckles. We walk into the house and as soon as (Y/n) closes the door Peter comes knocking on the door. (Y/n) opens it "hey how you doing" she asks "great actually we've met some of the other neighbors and I just saw you pull up and we were wondering if you where still selling the furniture" he says "oh yeah we are" (Y/n) says smiling "awesome we have the money for the stuff" he says "all of it?" She asks "yeah" he nods she raises her eyebrows surprised "how much you got" she asks "1,100" he says and (Y/n) looks back at me smiling "okay yeah I'll take that" she says looking back at him "awesome oh also here's my number just so we can get the furniture" he says handing her a piece of paper "thank you" she says "you're welcome bye" he says walking away "bye" she says closing the door. She looks at me "1,100 dollars Jay that's crazy" she says "yeah that is crazy" I smile, she smiles at me "I'm hungry after last night and this morning what about you Jaybird" she says looking in the fridge "yeah I could go for some food" I say "cool, grilled cheese?" she asks looking at me "sure" I say. She grabs the butter, cheese, milk, bread then walks to the pantry and grabs two cans of tomato soup, she grabs the pan and pot "crap" she says "what" I ask "forgot to take my pills" she says grabbing them out of her pocket "mm" I hum. After she takes her pill she gets back to cooking "how many do you want" she asks "one" I say she looks at me "you sure I mean we haven't eaten in a while" she says "yeah I'm sure" I say she side eyes me "Jay you need to eat" she says buttering the bread "I know I'm going to" I say "Jay when was the last time either of us made food" she asks "um a while" I say she nods "yeah and then last night we ran and walked and woke up in a random building so you're eating more than one" she says "I'm not letting you starve" she continues and looks at me, I smile "why do you care if I eat" I joke with her "maybe because I like you" she says under her breath looking back at what she was doing "what was that" I tease because I heard her. Her face turns red "nothing" she says "I think it was something I mean your face is pretty red" I say standing up and leaning on the counter by the stove she smiles "I said maybe because I like you" she looks at me and my face gets red from how she went from a blushing mess to straightforward "oh really" I say "yeah" she says.

*Timeskip*

(Y/n) plates our grilled cheese, (she's making me eat two) and puts our tomato soup in bowls and grabs cups and fills them with water. She has her plate, bowl, and both cups in her hands "when did you get so good at carrying multiple things at once" I ask "I worked as a waitress for a while before I got my job at the grocery store. Don't know which ones better scanning food or carrying food" she smiles, I laugh at bit. She sets her plate and bowl down and sets a cup in front of me and moves the camera. We eat in silence for a bit "about what I said earlier about liking you, it's okay if you don't like me back and if it makes us hanging out weird then I'd understand if you left" she says looking at her food "(Y/n) I'm not going to leave" I say smiling, she looks at me "I'm surprised you didn't notice but I've liked you since college, everyone else said it was obvious" I continue, she smiles "I guess we were both oblivious to each other" she says, I laugh "I guess... so what" I ask "what?" she asks confused "well we both like each other so what" I ask "well I've never dated anyone probably because of staying in that hospital most of my life, until it caught fire" she says "well I'd like to try and date you" I say "I'd like that to" she smiles "then we're dating" I ask "sure Jaybird" she says, I smile. The rest of the meal was in comfortable silence. 

*Timeskip* 

After eating (Y/n) puts the plates and bowls in the sink after rinsing them. She starts cleaning "do you want me to help" I ask "sure you can if you want" she says "of course I want to help" I say getting up from the table "can you wash the dishes" she asks "sure" I say walking past her, she smiles. She grabs all the cups and puts them in the sink "oops" she jokes "yeah sure" I say sarcastically as I smile, she kisses my cheek then walks away. After a while she comes over to see me drying the dishes "hey I told you to wash them not dry them" she says taking the plate and towel I was using "well I thought that washing the dishes included drying them" I say "when have I ever had you dry my dishes" she asks "never" I say "so why would it change" she asks I shrug "you can wash the counter if you want" she says grabbing a cup and drying it. I walk away and grab a washcloth and wash the counters. We do the laundry, clean the papers off the floor, sweep the floors, clean (Y/n)'s room (even though it was fine), and (Y/n) cleans the bathroom. After we're done cleaning (Y/n) texts Peter and he comes over to move the furniture, we move the furniture to their house and where they want it and now it's around 11 pm and we just finished moving everything while we were doing that Becky was cooking dinner "if you want you can stay for dinner" Peter offers "wanna stay Jay" (Y/n) asks "sure if you want to" I say "yeah we'll stay thank you" (Y/n) smiles "well you guys did give us lovely furniture so it's the least we could do" Becky says walking out of the kitchen with a tray of Lasagna and sets it on the table. The kids come running out of the living room as soon as the tray hit the table and they sit next to each other, Becky and Peter sit on either side of the table and me and (Y/n) sit next to each other. After an awkward dinner filled with the kids arguing, talking between the grown ups, and silence me and (Y/n) head back to her house "bye thank you for dinner" (Y/n) says waving at the family standing on the porch "you're welcome" Peter says. We walk in the house and look around "it's empty now" (Y/n) says "yeah wanna head back to the hotel" I ask (Y/n) nods. (Y/n) finishes packing up and we get back into the car. We get back to the hotel and (Y/n) jumps on the bed "I'm tired from all that hard work" she says falling asleep "yeah" I say laying down next to her. She scoots closer to me and falls asleep. I smile and kiss her cheek, covering us up "night night (N/n)" I say and turn the lamp off.

Finally Jay and (Y/n) together. I realized I didn't give the family names so I gave them names this chapter.
