"If you could fly, where would you go?" Asked the Interviewer.
"Fly into bed." Jeremy said first, sitting back lightly.
"Yeah, we'd fly into bed.." Scarlett said, to hear Jeremy burst out with laughter. "I'd fly back home to bed." Scarlett corrected herself, not daring to laugh.
After the interview, Scarlett and Jeremy walked out laughing. "Fly into bed?" Jeremy laughed, Scarlett chuckling.
"I didn't mean it like that!" She laughed, wiping her eyes from the laughing tears.
When they got back in the car, they both had a moment when they paused silently, letting it all settle in before laughing again. It surprised Scarlett when he leaned over and kissed her, though she quickly settled into it and began to kiss him back. "Before this turns into anything illegal.. we might wanna get home." Scarlett whispered against his lips, cupping his chin with her thumb and finger, her eyes still closed.
"Yes boss." Jeremy murmured, pressing his lips against hers again before turning back to the car, turning it on and driving back towards the house, Scarlett watching him with that sexy side smirk of hers which she knew drove him crazy.
"Don't speed." Scarlett scolded when she saw the needle move up on the reader. Jeremy nodded obediently, chuckling gently when she laughed. "You really wanna get home, huh?" She smirked.
Jeremy nodded. "Yep." He grinned, sighing when he had to stop at a red light. He was itching to get home, and with Scarlett now kissing his neck, he could barely contain himself. "Honey, if you keep doing that, you're gonna have to pay the fines." He murmured, Scarlett chuckled huskily into his neck before sitting back, watching him still.
Jeremy sighed softly, adjusting how he was sitting. "You're killing me here, Hot Sauce." He warned, driving again once the light turned green.
"Don't worry old man. I'll take care of you once we get home." Scarlett told him, smirking when she heard him sigh. She knew exactly what he was thinking. "You're all the same." Scarlett rolled her eyes with a hint of a smile. "You'd rather it be in someone's mouth."
Jeremy looked straight at her, as white as a ghost. "I-... I didn't.." Jeremy stuttered, looking back to the road.
"No.. but you thought it." Scarlett told him, which made him look down. "Its okay, Jer." Scarlett soothed, resting a hand on his knee. "You know I don't mind stuff like that.. Well.. I don't mind it with you." She winked, Jeremy smiling a little bit, pecking her lips before rolling up to his house.
Scarlett smiled, gracefully slipping out of the car, shutting the door. She walked around to Jeremy who was just getting out, taking his hand gently. "What?" Jeremy smiled.
"I love you." Scarlett said softly, kissing his lips gently.
"I love you too." Jeremy smiled softly, kissing her back carefully. "You seem a little weird. Are you okay, Scar?" Jeremy asked softly, Scarlett nodded with a small smile, taking his hand and kissing him. "Scar, that's not an answer." Jeremy said, pulling back.
He watched her as she looked down. "What is it?" He asked, surprised when she moved closer and hugged him.
"Come inside." Scarlett said softly, taking his hand as they walked inside. Jeremy opened the door for her. The faint barking of Jeremy's dogs was heard in the background as they sat on the couch.
Jeremy watched her intently, still holding his hand. "I have a part in a movie, but it means I'm moving around a lot." Scarlett told him softly.
"Okay." Jeremy nodded softly, rubbing his forehead with his free hand. "I understand. That comes up a lot with movies. Its a shame but I think we can survive." He said softly, giving a gentle smile. But Scarlett didnt seem convinced.
"Im really not sure, Jeremy." Scarlett said softly, chewing her bottom lip. His attention was completely on her. She only used his full name when she was either talking about him or when serious. "Its in Italy. Then Switzerland. After that, theres Russia, Tokyo and then we go to Toronto." Scarlett said, by his surprised expression she knew he finally understood.
She wouldnt have time to talk to him, especially with the time difference.
"Oh." Jeremy murmured, rubbing the stubble on his chin as he watched the floor aimlessly. Oh? Scarlett thought. Her slight annoyance didnt register on her face. It never did. To everyone else, it seemed like life was a walk in the park to her. However if you really knew her, like Jeremy did, you could tell it was far from it. Fucking "Oh"? Scarlett's voice screamed in her head.
"That's it? Just oh?" Scarlett asked, Jeremy watching her in slightly surprise.
"What do you want me to say, Scar?" Jeremy asked, getting up and pacing lightly, leaving Scarlett on the couch.
"I don't know. Something other than 'Oh'!" Scarlett told him, rubbing her forhead.
