Him.

Back Home

< 1 month later>

"Jess!" Jake yelled from upstairs. 

"What?" I yelled back at him.

"Can you get me another Ice pack?" he yelled back down. "DAMN! Yelling hurts!" I couldn't help but laugh. I went to the freezer and grabbed him another bag of peas. I wrapped it in a paper towel and took it to him. 

I walked up the stairs cautiously. As many times as I had walked up them I somehow always trip. But then again I fall on everything.

When I walked in the room, Jake had this teasing smirk on his face. I walked over to him and threw the bag of frozen peas at him. I now having the teasing smirk on my face.

"Uh.. OW!" he exclaimed. 

"Oops? Did I hurt you?" I had my hands on the side of his bed until he grabbed them and pulled me on the bed with him. 

"Lay with me?" he asked. He put his arm around me leaving me with no choice but to lay there. He laid on his side, trying to ease the pain of his right side. He lifted up my shirt just below my bra and drew small circles on my stomach with his finger. He moved his head in to the crook of my neck and let small kisses on my neck.

"Well, since it doesn't look like I have a choice. And I DEFINATELY don't want to leave this! So sure. I'll lay with you." 

I never remember going to sleep, but I woke up to him saying, "Scoot over. You're killing me!" he was joking, but I realized I had elbowed him near his wound. When I moved, he winced in pain.

"Sorry!" I moved over but he pulled me back close to him. Only this time, he moved my arm over my stomach and held it there. " I thought you wanted me to move?"

"I did. But then I realized I'd be lonely." I laughed at the comment. I reached over to grab my phone that was vibrating. I kissed Jake and answered it.

"Yes. Mmhmm. I'll tell him! Thank you Dr. Lee!" I turned around and looked at Jake. "Time for somebody to start some physical therapy! Lift up your arms and sit up. Lean against the bed head." When he did that, I climbed in his lap, careful not to hurt his side, and pulled his arms down gently, like I was getting them to move. Then I came with the attack.

"Now lets get them lips working again."
