Nick and Jess had both left to sit alone in their rooms, after a long time arguing about who would say what was on the valet cards first. Nick seriously did not want to be the first one to say anything but he had a feeling Jess was going to be quite stubborn.
It was 2 in the morning and Nick had woke up with a sense of anxiety and nervousness. He shuffled out of his room to the bathroom but stopped in his tracks as he spotted Jess curled up in a ball, her glasses askew, on the sofa. He wanted nothing more than to walk over to her, sit with her and comfort her. He lent against the loft wall and stood staring at her, peacefully sleeping. Jess started stirring and she slowly opened her eyes, Nick walked over to her,
"Hey Jess, why are you out here?" He spoke cautiously.
"I was hoping you'd come out of your room." She said sternly with heavy tired eyes. "About 3 hours ago."
It was silent and their eyes were gazing around the room. Nick decided to sit down next to her.
"Jess, what are we doing?" He asked feeling a bit scared but also intrigued.
"I don't know Nick! I'm just so confused! I don't know how you feel, I don't know how I feel! I JUST DON'T KNOW!" Jess broke down into a tired, crying mess.
"Jess, look at me. LOOK AT ME, DAMN IT!" He tried to stay calm, but his anger issues started to show.
"I can only do what I can do to make you feel better! I can only do half of what you don't know about! YOU have to do the other half!"
Jess looked straight into Nick's eyes, feeling secure and safe. "Ok Nick. You help me, TELL ME WHAT WAS ON YOUR VALET CARD! There's NO other way for me to figure out what I don't know if you don't tell me."
"FINE JESS. YOU REALLY WANT TO KNOW?"
"YES, I REALLY WANT TO KNOW." They both stood face to face in each others personal space.
"Everything." Nick said, loudly and fearlessly.
"What?" Jess looked confused, her eyebrows raising and her lips closed together.
"Russel asked us what 'this' is and what you are. This and you are everything." Nick could not believe that he has said that out loud, but he was tired and realized, there's only 2 things that could happen. And with a 50% chance that something amazing could happen, he took it.
They still stood face to face, staring into each others eyes. Absorbing each other. They both felt highly vulnerable but they finally understood how the other one felt. Nick lent in and kissed Jess, they fell into each other. Pressing their bodies against one another, collapsing onto the sofa. Nicks hands running through Jess's hair whilst her hands were running over his body. They pulled away from each other ever so slightly and each took their first breaths into, everything.
Thanks for reading guys, hope you all like this next installment. Sorry I didn't upload chapter 2 earlier, but my school work got in the way! I hope the kissing scene was alright... I tried to make it tasteful ahah! Anyway, as always, reviews welcome! Please be nice :)
