Jessica Parker was suffering from lack of sleep and lack of love. She and Becker had split up and Jess, even though she would not admit it, was not over him. Every night she cried herself to sleep and even when she was asleep, she tossed and turned. She decided to stay behind at the Arc so that Connor and Abby would not hear her crying.

When she was sure everyone had gone she absent-mindedly walked into an empty office, sat down and started crying. She tried to stop, wiping her face with the back of her hand but her tears were uncontrollable.

"Jess, are you okay?"came a voice from behind Jess, making her jump slightly. It was Matt; he came over and sat next to Jess, putting his arm around her shaking body. "What's wrong?" he asked pushing her chin up so he could see her face.

"Becker" Jess sobbed "dumped" she started to choke on her sobs "me".

"It's okay" said Matt and he kissed her gently on the head. Jess adjusted her position so her quivering head was rested on Matt's strong knee. Matt started to idly play with Jess hair as she fell asleep on his lap- her first proper sleep in a week.

After what felt like an hour and Matt was certain Jess was fully asleep he carried her, in his muscular arms, outside to his car. When he arrived at his car he rested Jess on his knees as he open the door and lifted her into the front seat of his car. He propped her up and wrapped the seat belt around her.

Matt drove very slowly back to his flat, scared that a sudden movement would disturb the sleeping angel- his sleeping angel. When he finally arrived at his flat he carried Jess up to his room and lay her on his neat bed. "Matt" said Jess weakly as she awoke, "don't leave me, please" as she said this Matt walked over and lay in his bed next to her. He grabbed the duvet and pulled in over both of them and placed his arms protectively round her tender frame. He placed his hands on her stomach so he could feel her breathing. All of a sudden, Jess turned over so she was facing him and kissed him passionately. Matt pulled Jess closer and kissed her back. Matt pulled away for a second and said "Don't expect tears to always bring joy" Soon Jess had fallen asleep in Matt's arms.

A very short fic purely because I wasn't sure about the pairing, what do you think? :D
