30| Miscellaneous things

A/N: Ladies, not gonna lie to you. Weird ass chapter, but humor me. Also feel free to comment about how disturbing this is.

          "That's the last of it!" I exclaimed happily as I put down the final bundle of Phoebe's things on the floor. "The trunk is officially empty."

The pretty girl stood from the couch and walked over to me, pushing with her foot the new addition of  stuff to the things she was already sorting through. "Alrighty then, let's get to work." Phoebe's hazel eyes looked up to my brown ones as she wrapped her hand around my bicep and guides me to the couch she was previously sitting on.

Sprawled in front of me were mounds upon mounds of colourful clothing, books, old toys, and other miscellaneous things. We decide by separating all of her clothes from the rest of the stuff. I emptied half of my drawers and made enough space for her in my closet. In a team effort, I smoothed and folded Phoebe's clothes as she hung up and put it away in the new slots I made for her things in my room.

"Well, all the clothes are out away now. Phoebe exhales with relief, plopping down on the couch with me and sliding herself over my lap so that her stomach was over my thighs. "Can we go lay down now?"

I dropped what I was holding, "Aw, but I thought you wanted to get this all done today." I smooth down her hair as she laid tired over me.

"I know." She turns over, looking at me with sleepy eyes, "It's just I got so little rest last night between partying and nursing you and, you know," Her cheeks flushed and eyes flickered away from mine, "Kissing."

"Oh, well then you can go lay down." I continued to gently comb the hairs in front of her face, "I can take care of the rest."

"Josh, you don't have to. They are my things, it's my responsibility." Phoebe quickly turned down the offer.

"Well, you're living with me for the time being, that makes it our responsibility." I reminded her, "Go on and take a nap, all of this will be sorted once you wake up."

"I mean if you insist, I'm not going to oppose." She sits up from my lap and starts to stalk of to my room. "Goodnight!" She closed the door behind her.

"Goodnight." I whispered to myself.

"Phoebe." I mumbled quietly, shaking her shoulder to wake her up. Only successfully causing her to hum sleepily.

"Phoebe." I said a little bit louder, removing the comforter from her.

With half-closed eyelids she reaches for the covering, but fails to get it out of my grip, "Go away." She turns away from me, and presses a spare pillow over her head.

Seeing that she's refusing to wake up I say, "C'mon, wake up I gotta show you something." Which only earns me more groans and a white pillow to the face.

She giggles happily and rolls around playfully over the large bed. Rolling my eyes at her, stalking out of the room with a fake frown on my face.

After seeing me walk away from her, Phoebe quickly stood up and followed after me, almost falling from getting her feet caught around the sheets, "Okay, okay! Fine!" With tipsy motions, Phoebe catches up to me holding onto my left arm as she leans forward, suddenly red-faced from the view in front of her.

"Oh my god, you didn't." She brings her left hand up to her mouth in awe.

"Oh, but I did." I chuckle.

In front of us, all kinds of assorted to plush toys stood in formation. From worms, to penguins, to teddy bears, and ducks, everything was displayed in an almost disturbing manner across my floor.

"What the fuck, Josh!" She pushes me slightly, laughter in her voice.

I shrug innocently, "I didn't know what you wanted me to do with all of them so I just kinda," I reached my hand forward towards all the toys aimlessly, "Showcased them for you."

"That is about the creepiest thing I've ever heard you say." The brunette says as she sits down in front of the plethora of stuffed animals.

"C'mon, I was bored and done within the first hour while you were asleep." I sat down beside my girl, "So I found them, what are we gonna do about them now? Are you going to throw them away or-"

Her hazel eyes widen as she gasps, loudly. "I could never!" She place her pale hands on either ear of a teddy bear that sat in front of her, "I cannot believe you would even suggest that!"

"You seriously cannot believe it?" I laugh lightly and look at her with disbelief.

Phoebe childishly reaches for the soft bear that was placed in front of her and hugs it suffocatingly tight to her chest, "I would never get rid of Mr. Snuggles, or or- Captain Duck- or even-"

"Babe-"

"Is this gonna be a deal breaker?" She squinted her eyes as me and scooted further away from me, bear in hand, "Because if it is, me and my squad can live in the streets. We don't need you."

"Oh my god." Was all I could say.

She had to be kidding.

I hope she was.

"No no no no, you and your stuffed toys can stay with me." I took the bear from her hands and put it back in it's spot, dramatically petting it's small toy head.

"Good." She scoots back closer to me with a smile of satisfaction on her face, "You've made a good choice."

I looked at the toys from the corner of my eyes with a cringed expression, "They don't gotta sleep with us in the room. Right?"

Hazel eyes now wide open again, "Why? Is that going to be an issue?"

"Well.." I trailed off.

"I'm kidding, I'm kidding!" Phoebe giggles and reaches for my face, planting a sweet kiss on my right cheek, "In the room is just gonna be you and me, baby." She whispers lowly in my ear, making me catch my breath.

"That reminds me!" I try to dismiss the fluttering emotions I was experiencing. I reached my hand from in between the toys, pulling out a small pink apparatus. "I found this earlier."

She's stunned and at a loss of words, her mouth is open in awe until she is able to say something, "I can explain." She says quickly, "No I can't."

"Really?" I brought the sex toy closer to her, "It's pretty clear what it is and much more importantly: what it's used for." I smirked.

"Oh my god." She shields her face with her hands. "I cannot believe-"

"Does it have a name like all of you other toys?" I laughed a bit louder as I looked at her reddening face.

"Josh-"

I turned it in my hands, "how about 'Jack the Rabbit.'" I mused.

"JOSHUA!"
