I had just come into the bathroom to wash my face and do my business in peace, but that was quickly put to an end once I discovered a giant spider crawling up the wall. I eyeballed the furry brown arachnid as if keeping my stare on it would prevent it from moving. But when it did move, quickly at that, I didn't bother holding back a shriek.

There was a large thud followed by the thumping of quick footsteps before my panicked and concerned-looking boyfriend appeared in the bathroom doorway, "Are you okay?! Is everything okay?"

I shook my head frantically, "A big ass spider is crawling up the wall." Anxiously pointing to the space next to the large hanging mirror, I backed away so JJ could take a peek.

Instead, the recently awoken blonde chuckled at my state and proceeded to poke fun at me, "It can't be that big." He peered around the cabinet and I watched in the mirror as his eyes widened in horror. He tried to rub the tiredness from them, hoping that he was still sleepy and imagining things, but when that didn't work, the blood quickly rushed from his face and he went still. "Okay. Changed my mind. It's fucking huge."

"Didn't I tell you that," He grabbed my hand and pulled me out of the bathroom, ignoring my attempt at redeeming my, "I told you so" moment, shutting and locking the door behind us, "What are you doing?"

He glanced back at me as if I was suffering from a sudden bout of short-term memory loss, "Saving you."

I scoffed and rolled my eyes, a smirk pulling at the corners of my lips, it was my turn to poke fun at him, "My hero."

"Would you like to go back in there and get your ass bit?" He suggested.

Weighing my options, continuing to push my boyfriend's buttons, or getting bit by a spider, I ultimately, (and surprisingly hesitantly,) decided in favor of my safety, "No."

He smiled victoriously, "That's what I thought." JJ pulled a blue t-shirt over his head, covering the grand display of toned muscles, and grabbed a backpack.

I pointed at him curiously, "Um, what's that for?"

"Grab your stuff. We're out of here." He announced very matter of factly, grabbing arm fulls of his belongings and tucking them into this bag.

"We're just going to leave it here?"

He took a break from shoving things into the largest pocket and looked up at me, "Hell yeah. It's his house now princess. Let's go."

I crossed my arms, "Go where."

"Far away."

Raising a brow at him and his packing, I asked, "You don't think you're exaggerating just a little bit?"

"Fine. I'll just go then, you hang out here with the big scary spider and make sure it doesn't escape until John B gets home. He can kill it."

A smile tugged at my lips, "Chicken."

"Aren't you the one who screamed for me in the first place?"

"Yeah, for you to kill the spider."

"Why didn't you just kill the spider."

"Because I was scared, and I thought since your the man of the house, and my boyfriend, that you wouldn't mind saving a damsel in distress."

JJ scoffed and tried his best to hold back a smile, "Whatever."

"How come you can bark at and pick up snakes, throw worms at me, go frog hunting, gut fish, and swim with jellyfish, but you can't kill a spider?"

Zipping the first two zippers, (struggling slightly because of how full he had stuffed them) he snuck a glance at me, "I'm only so blessed y/n."

"Cocky much?"

"Not at all." He declared, shaking his head and sighing as the zippers finally gave in.

"Sure, I'm going to hang out with Kie at The Wreck. You can chill here with your new buddy." Tucking my phone into the pocket of my shorts I grabbed a sweatshirt and started for the door before he could.

"No! Wait!" He scrambled for his own phone and slung the backpack onto his shoulder before running into the living room after me.

"Are you planning on staying for a month?" I motioned towards his stuffed to the brim bag and stifled a laugh when he shrugged.

"Gotta be prepared."

"I think you're more scared of that spider than I am babe."

JJ contorted his face into a mix of disbelief and offense, "No way."

"Says the one who wants to evacuate the house."

"You're going along with it."

"Well I don't wanna stay there with it, but it wasn't my idea."

"Oh, whatever." JJ slung an arm around my shoulders and pulled me into him, quickly kissing my forehead before heading outside.

"I love you, my defective boyfriend."

"Defective?"

He looked over at me from the back and tossed his bag in shutting the door before moving to the driver's seat.

"Yeah, defective."

"How so?"

"Cause the boyfriend is supposed to save the girlfriend from the big scary bugs. Mine just screams and moves out."

"At least I'm bringing you with me." He started my car and rolled down the windows, cranking up the radio.

"I'm lucky you're even doing that."

"Yeah, yeah. Pick up the pace, that spider moved faster than you do."
