The police had taken Luke's body and given JJ the clear to get the stuff he needed from the house, before it was repossessed. He wanted me to come with him which I was more than happy to. Mr Heyward had given me the day off work to be with JJ which I was thankful for, I didn't want to leave my boyfriend alone when Barry was still out there.

Most of JJ's belongings were at John B's anyway, likewise with mine, but there were a few items of clothing, some bags and some trinkets from his childhood he packed up into a duffel bag. I tried not to stare too long or ask questions about the various items JJ picked up at his house, as I knew most would be tokens of affection from his mother, or his father before he turned into an abusive addict, and both were sensitive subjects.

JJ's demeanour shifted slightly as he picked up a red cap from the back of his wardrobe, and a cockeyed smile graced his features.

"This was John B's. I stole it from him in the third grade and must have forgotten to give it back," he chuckled slightly, placing the small hat delicately in the bag, despite it behind knocked out of shape already.

The trip took no longer than half an hour, the memories too tender for most of the items to give them much thought as JJ tossed them into his bag. He took anything valuable of his father's, like jewellery or fancy cutlery he had stolen once, but left most of it for the police to dispose of.

I gave him a supportive smile and reached for his hand, which I could feel shaking, but I didn't mention it.

The other pogues had gone out for the day, partly to give JJ and I some space, so I suggested that he took a bath after unloading his things to relax.

"With you?" he asked playfully, a smirk faintly tugging at the corners of his lips, and with a face like that, how could I refuse?

"Sure," I replied nonchalantly, and I watched his face light up because he didn't think I'd actually agree.

We undressed in the bathroom as I got the bath ready and JJ gestured for me to climb in before him, so he could situate himself behind me. Once he got in, I felt him sigh in content, as he leaned back and let the hot water relax his muscles.

We chatted about random things for a while, to take his mind off of the day while we soaked, but the he grabbed the sponge and put some soap on, moving my hair to the side as he lovingly washed my body.

I leant back in his arms as he used his hands rather than the sponge on my chest.

"JJ," I warned, not wanting him to get horny when the point was to relax him.

"Don't worry, I'm almost done," he replied, and I could sense his grin.

I stood up to climb over him and once he was seated between my legs, I glided the sponge over his back and shoulders. We showered afterwards so I could wash my hair, and then I saw JJ yawn and I felt accomplished, it was like getting a toddler to sleep.
