- knock knock -


There was a time and a place for everything. Everyone knew that.

For example, one couldn't just burst into song in the middle of the mall; he needed to wait and do it under the shower as it was proper, or his sergeant would definitely smack him on the head (not that he knew anything about that).

Just like one just couldn't knock on someone's door at two in the morning.

Least of all when it was on Jake's door.

Eyes still half closed, blanket around him, he blindly walked towards the entrance, mumbling a vague "Icomin'".

When he opened his door, it took him a minute to even recognize his late visitor, which, by the small smile on her face, seemed to amused her.

"Hey, sleepy head. You look cute."

"It's two, I'm allowed to be sleepy", he whined, voice hoarse.

"I know", her face turned concerned. "I'm sorry."

"'salright". He opened his arms for her, and Amy walked straight into them as he closed the door behind her before wrapping up her close to him in his tangle of sheets. "Mhm, you smell good."

"Thanks. Can I stay with you tonight?", she mumbled into his neck, lips grazing his skin.

"Do you really need to ask?"

He then backed up a little, watching her closely for a moment."You okay though?"

She looked up, chin on his chest, and smiled again."Yeah, I'm fine. Just missed you, that's all."

Jake grinned back through his haze.
