My Best Friend Jimmy

Hello?

The whole night, my heart and mind could not have been more restless. I knew that it was going to be one of the hardest days ever at work, and that kept me up most of the night. The uncertainty of what happened plagued my mind as well. I didn't know why it had to end like this. I didn't know why he couldn't have just broken up with me for her.

When I woke in the morning, I did so to a very sleepy Seth Meyers.

"Hey. We should probably get going to work soon."

"Fuck." I grumbled into the pillows.

"I know. That's the last thing you want to do right now. But just know that you're going to have everyone on your side. Literally everyone. Please don't be scared. The day will be over before you know it and you're more than welcome to stay here again tonight. And the next night... and the next..." He lightly kicked at the floor. "Actually, you never have to leave if you don't want to. I really don't want you to ever leave."

"I know, Seth. Everything is just a little fresh right now. I don't want to go making plans right now because I don't know whats going to happen in the future. As of right now, all I know is that I never want to speak to Jimmy ever again and I'm definitely not getting back together with him."

"That's perfectly fine, princess. That's actually what I expected you to say. I just want you to be happy. I'll do everything that I can to make sure that you are. Okay?"

"Thank you." He tenderly kissed me on the forehead and pulled back the sheets to get out of the bed. I did the same and stretched myself out. Seth proceeded into the kitchen to make breakfast, I would assume. I took this chance to take a look at what I expected to be more than a shit ton of text messages and missed phone calls about the events that had taken place last night.

Well, what do you know? I was right! I had 27 voice messages from Jimmy and about 13 from Lorne, Tina, Maya, and Will.

I read Lorne's first just incase they had to do with work. It read:

"Hello, Jess. I heard about what happened last night. I'm not completely sure what happened, but I would like you to come in today and we will all talk this out. You're not in trouble. You didn't do anything. I just want to get this all worked out to the best it could possibly. Love you, sweetie. See you in the morning."

It wasn't something that was unexpected, but it still made me tear up. I heard Seth's footsteps coming nearer, so I quick wiped my tears away with my sleeve and got myself together. 

He walked in carrying a plate of eggs and toast and another mug of tea. He was so good to me. Maybe in the future, I would be able to be with him, but not right now. It was just soon.

We sat in his bed together and ate our breakfast while talking about the sketches that were up for this week. Both of us were clearly avoiding the giant elephant in the room.

I finished up my last piece of toast and with my mouth still full, said, "I got a text from Lorne this morning."

"Oh really? What did he say? Is he pissed at Jimmy?" He raised an eyebrow.

"He said that he wants me to come in today so that we can all talk about things and make things as good as they can possibly be or some shit. I just don't even want to fucking hear it."

"Is he pissed though?"

"You know what? Now that I think of it, I don't think he is... I just naturally thought that he would pissed about it. Do you think he knows something that we don't?"

"Oh yeah. Of course he does. You're forgetting that its Lorne. The fucking CIA trusts him with keeping important information from people."

"You're so right..." I looked off past him and thought for a while.
