Jeremy's POV
I woke up to find Dani's head rested on my chest, and her cheeks stained with tears. Carefully, I managed to get her head off my chest, and rest it on the pillow. I get out of bed, and stand back to look at her. She looks so small, and helpless. She's sleeping on her side, and all curled, her knees close to her chest. Like she's protecting herself from some unknown force. Will's such a jackass. I would kick his butt, but y'know, I weight about 170 soaking wet, so......not really a good idea. It's the thought that counts I guess. I take another look at her, and I'm overwhelmed with the need to kiss her forehead, so I do. She shifts at the touch, but then she starts to sprawl out and take up all space on the bed.
I sigh, and head upstairs to her kitchen. Maybe there's something we can eat..... I survey the kitchen as I walk into the room. I didn't really get a good look at it last night, cause I kinda got punched in the face. The kitchen has light brown cupboards on the wall to the right. There's a rusting stove breaking the forest green countertop, and with a broiler on top of it. I can see the first aid kit is still on the counter, and I proceed to close it. Then I start to look through and find something to eat. In the small cupboard beside the fridge, there's a box of cereal labelled "DANI" and some other boxes of oatmeal. Above it is a utilities cupboard where I'm assuming the first aid kit would go. I turn to my left and look at the cupboard above the microwave. I find a box of pancake mix. Score! I grab some eggs, the carton of milk, the mix and I'm good to go. I look in the cupboard underneath for a pan. Then I follow the cooking instructions, and get the mix ready to flip. I'm dancing around, belting out lyrics into the whisk.
My love she throws me like a rubber ball
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
She won't catch me or break my fall
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
Baby's got blue skies up ahead
But in this I'm a rain cloud
You know she wants dry kind of love
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
I'm losing you
I'm losing you yeah
Ain't love the sweetest thing
I wanted to run but she made me crawl
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
Eternal fire, she turned me to straw
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
You know I got black eyes
But they burn so brightly for her
This is a blind kind of love
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
I'm losing you
Oh oh oh, I'm losing you
Ain't love the sweetest thing
Blue-eyed boy meets a brown-eyed girl
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
You can sew it up but you still see the tear
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
Baby's got blue skies up ahead
But in this I'm a rain cloud
Ours is a stormy kind of love
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
