Chapter 21

Newt POV

"Did you enjoy eavesdropping on our private conversation?" Jakie asks with her hands on her hips and Emily comes to the doorway rubbing her eyes from tiredness.

"Yeah... I did," I admit and Dean chuckles. With one looks from Emily though, he shuts right up.

"Glad," Jakie says sweetly but the cold, venomous look in her eyes tells us otherwise. 

"JC, what's going on here?" Emily asks. 

"I found some peeping tons in on our conversation," she admits pointing to us boys with her thumb while we smile innocently.

"Was our conversation interesting?" Emily asks.

"Very enjoyable," Dean responds. 

"Ugh, you assholes," Jakie rolls her eyes and shoves by us skipping down the stairs. 

Emily POV 

The Next Day

I wake up to Dean's arm still wrapped around me and I roll over to face his mesmerizing, emerald green eyes.

"Good morning, Sleepyhead," he chuckles.

"Good morning, sweetie," I respond and give him a peck on the lips.

"Let's get up, it's almost 10:00." He suggests and releases me from his muscular grip so we can get ready for breakfast.

"Alright," I say and lead him downstairs to see Sam in front of the oven wearing my pink, flowery apron and oven mitts. He leans down to take my muffin tray out of the oven and takes some icing out of a bowl to frost the cupcakes with.

"Morning guys," he greets turning around.

"Morning," We say in unison and he gives us each a cupcake.

I take one bite and am instantly in food heaven. "These are so good!" I moan sitting down on Dean's lap in a chair at the table.

"Thanks," Sam mumbles and we all chuckle.

Jakie comes down the stairs holding hands with Newt and she smirks at me with a knowing smile. "Shut up!" I mumble in her ear as she passes Dean and me. She just giggles.

"Emmy, can I talk to you?" She asks feigning sweetness but the tone of her voice conveys that it's an order. "In the dining room?"

"Um... sure," I say hesitantly, looking at Dean for reassurance and he nods in approval.

"What did you do last night?" She squeals like a child with a smirk plastered on her face.

"You can guess..." I indirectly answer.

"Are you okay?" She asks noticing that silent tears are slipping out of my eyes.

"I just- I just- I don't want what happened last time to happen again, with the miscarriage." I get out between sobs.

"I promise, I'll take care of you and I won't let anything bad happen to you," She consoles.

"Thank you," I sniffle into her shirt as she envelopes me into a warm hug.

"Anytime," she mutters releasing me as Dean comes into the room. I know it's him because of his luxurious scent of apple pie and my coconut shampoo.

"Everything okay in here?" He asks wiping away a stray tear.

"Yup," Jakie answers before I can say otherwise.

"Okay then. Can I take my girlfriend back now?" He requests and Jakie nods her head. "Thank you."

Dean takes my hand and leads us to my room. He takes off his shirt and heads over to my desk where my MacBook Pro sits. He grabs it and an extension cord before plugging it in and sitting on my bed. I follow him onto the bed, grab my panda stuffed animal, and curl up next to him with the computer in the middle of our legs.

We log into my Netflix account and pick out a movie to watch. We end up watching "How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days" and we both find it very funny. About halfway through the movie, we're laughing so hard that we don't hear the door open. 

"Hey!" I yell at Jakie as she pauses the movie.

"Let me explain!" She counters as a crowd forms by the door.

"What is there to explain?" I ask starting to flash my eyes yellow playfully 

"I have a question, what color blanket do you want?"

"Oh..." I sulk. 

After she returns, she plugs in the machine and retreats back to her room to get some fabric.

"Pink, blue or green?" She asks pulling out three different rolls of material.

"Green... Obviously." I choose a 'duh' tone.

"Okay then." She says and gets to work, cutting and sewing, sticking her tongue out in concentration.

"Can we watch the movie now?" Dean asks and I look at the doorway noticing that since the scene is over, everybody's back to their normal lives.

"Yup," I say after Jakie nods that we can.

Jakie POV

I pick out the only colors that I've kept at Emily's house and she chooses the green variety of my skills. 

They continue the movie that they were watching earlier and soon they're both lost in fits of laughter. I turn around to inspect the insanity of my best friend and her boyfriend but notice that she's no longer laughing and is now curled up to his side and his arm is draped across her body in a protective manner. She's asleep and he's watching this chick flick... alone.

"You good there, buddy?" I ask spinning around in the swivel chair and stifling a yawn with my hand.

"Yeah. I'm good. You look tired. Go to sleep. Newtie is probably missing you." He smiles cheekily closing the laptop and setting it aside. He lays down next to Emily ready to sleep. I roll my eyes at him and am about to walk out before Dean makes one more comment.

"I bet you 10 bucks he can't sleep right now because you're not there with him!" He calls quietly. I continue walking as if I didn't hear a thing.

I open our door to see Newt lying on his back in bed, bouncing a ball against the ceiling. Dean was right. I smile to myself that we both can't sleep without each other. I guess I owe him $10.

"There you are. I've been trying to sleep for a bloody hour." Newt whines.

"Well, I'm here now." I soothe as he misses the ball and it hits him square in the nose. He reaches his arm up and rubs it, groaning in pain. "You okay?"

"Bloody brilliant." He replies and drops his hand, beckoning me over to the bed. I approach the bed and kiss his nose as he chuckles. I climb off of him and curl up into his warm body, closing my eyes to embrace sleep.
