Jeremy sighed and burrowed himself deeper into Damon's chest. Every since the Winter Ball Damon has been sleeping over at Jeremy's house or sometimes like on the weekend Jeremy would sleep at Damon's. It was the only way either of them could sleep nowadays. The mornings however sucked like today it was Wednesday and there was no school today so Jeremy had spent the night at Damon's house and while everyone else got to sleep in Jeremy couldn't because he had gotten a job at The Grill.

Jeremy groaned and turned in Damon's arms, so that he could grab his phone off of the side table and check what time is was. It was 7:30 in the morning he had to be at work at 8:15.

Jeremy reached down and pulled Damon's arms off him so he could get up from bed. Once he was out of his arms Jeremy jumped out of bed, and looked over at Damon and giggled a little when Damon reached out searching for him. Damon groaned and opened his eyes and glared when his eyes landed on Jeremy who was still laughing at him. "What are you doing up so early?" He questioned.

"I have to go to work today and then meet up with Elena." Jeremy said smiling at his boyfriend.

"Oh, I'll go with you then." Damon said as he sat up in bed.

"No!" Jeremy said a bit too loudly. Damon looked at him with a look of confusion and shock. "I mean no it's alright, I'm just going to work then going to help Elena find a Valentines gift for Stefan." Damon still looked confused as to why he couldn't go with go. Jeremy smiled. "Which means I'll be looking for a present for you to."

Damon smirked. "We'll now I know what I'm going to do today." Jeremy smiled and jumped back on the bed.

Damon leaned back on the bed wrapping an arm around Jeremy's waist pulling him closer. Jeremy cupped Damon's face between his hands and placed his lips on Damon's. They kissed for a couple of minutes lost in their own little world. Suddenly, Jeremy's alarm went off. Jeremy jumped grabbing his phone and seeing that it was 7:50. "Shit!" Jeremy yelled hurriedly getting off the bed quickly throwing off his clothes and putting on new ones. The he ran into the restroom to brush his teeth. Jeremy grabbed a jacket and opened the bedroom door and running out.

Damon smirked lifting his hand, dropping a finger down and mouthing a number whenever a finger went down. When he got to five Jeremy was back in the room. "Sorry." He sheepishly said jumping back on the bed and pecking Damon on the lips. "Bye. I love you."

"Love you too." Damon smiled stroking Jeremy's cheek with his thumb.

"See you later." He kissed him once more, and then ran back out the door.


Jeremy got to work at 8:20 p.m. but thank god Matt was working the same shift as Jeremy because he had clocked him in on time. "Thank you so much Matt. I owe you." He said hugging Matt.

"No problem. Why were you late anyway? Ever since you got this job you've been on time."

"Damon distracted me." Jeremy said biting his lip.

Matt smirked at Jeremy. "Distracted you, huh?" He winked.

"Fuck you." Jeremy glared throwing a towel at Matt.

Matt laughed. "So what are you doing for Valentine's Day it's in two more days?"

Jeremy perked up. "Damon's taking me to the Valentine's Day fair!"

"Nice, is that all you guys have planned?"

"No we're going to eat dinner first and Damon said he has a special surprise for me after the fair."

Matt smiled. "That's great. Let's get to work before were fired."

Jeremy nodded grabbing his apron and tying it around his waist then got his notepad and went to take some orders.
