Chapter 13: Breakfast Time

Mia walked into the kitchen the following morning but heard laughter from another room. She went into the living room and found Jayden and Emily watching television. "Morning guys," she greeted.

They looked up and smiled at Mia, "Morning Mia," they said together.

"How long have you guys been up?"

"Since four," Jayden said.

Mia's eyes widened. "Why so early?"

"I warned Jayden that if the movie gave me nightmares that he'd have to stay up with me."

"So you've just been sitting here watching television and eating junk?"

"Yeah, mostly."

"Then I guess you guys aren't hungry, I was about to make some breakfast."

"As much as I would love to sample more of you cooking Mia," Jayden started placing his hand on his stomach. "I'm actually a bit full."

"Me too," Emily agreed.

Mia shrugged. "Oh well, I can still make breakfast for the others. It is a little early so they won't be up for a little bit." Mia headed back into the kitchen to cook breakfast.

"I wonder what she's going to make everyone eat."

"Whatever she makes you guys don't like it."

"True, but this time I don't have to eat it thanks to our pig out."

"So what would you like to do today?" Jayden took Emily's hand and kissed it.

"I don't know, whatever Ji has planned for us."

"That's not what I was thinking but okay,"

"He gave us the day off yesterday Jayden, so today he's going to make us practice. We still haven't really learned to fight with you and you need practice with the seal symbol."

Jayden sighed. "Yeah, you're right. Well, we can practice together while the others eat breakfast."

"Okay, we might as well clean up in here and change into our work out suits." They cleaning up their mess and straightened everything out before heading to their rooms to change.

One by one the others entered the kitchen and fearfully sat down to eat Mia's food. "You didn't set plates out for Jayden and Emily," Kevin commented.

"They're not hungry," Mia answered.

"Oh, um I'm not hungry either," Mike said trying to save himself.

"Me too," Antonio joined.

"You two haven't eaten since dinner last night, you're hungry."

"Why do you think Jayden and Emily aren't hungry?"

"It seems Emily had nightmares from the movie and Jayden promised her if she did then he'd stay up with her. They've been up since four and they ate while watching television." Mia explained.

"So where are they now?" Ji asked.

"I'm not sure, come one guys dig in." Everyone looked at each other fearfully and began eating.

A while later Jayden and Emily walked into the kitchen and got bottles of water. "Where were you guys?" Lauren asked.

"We were outside practicing, I was teaching Emily some of my techniques." Jayden replied before taking a drink.

"So you guys better watch out the next time I'm your sparring partner."

"Mia mentioned you had a rough night, you okay Emily?" Lauren asked.

"Yeah I'm okay."

"To be fair," Mia started, "it could've been avoided had Jayden and Spike picked a different movie."

"I'm aware her nightmares were my fault Mia and I paid the price."

"I'll admit I was freaked out when they said the witch's name, the second half was Shiba." Everyone looked at Antonio. "Like you guys didn't get the chills up your spine at that part." (I finally saw The Conjuring)

"Well wait, was the name they said just her first name or a first and last name?" Mike asked.

"If you guys don't mind," Emily said freaking out. "I'd rather forget about the movie."

"Sorry Emily," Everyone said together.

Emily looked at Jayden. "We should get back outside and keep practicing while they finish eating."

"Okay, when you guys finish eating feel free to join us outside." Jayden wrapped his arm around Emily's waist and lead her back outside.

"That looked like a more than friendly gesture." Kevin said noticing where Jayden put his arm.

"It turns out Jayden likes Emily," Mike said.

"How do you know that?"

"Look how he looks at her, how he stares at her when she's not looking. Plus he told me."

"If anything happens between them they better not let it distract them. Jayden has to master the sealing symbol, that is his biggest priority and his life's mission." Ji said sounding okay with a possible relationship.

"You've got to admit they look cute together," Mia said looking outside.

"I have some things to take care of today but I still expect you all to practice." Ji said getting up and heading outside.

"Looks like we've got another free day," Mike said happily.

"No we don't," Lauren corrected. "You guys still need to work on your teamwork with Jayden and at some point he needs to practice the sealing symbol."

Ji watched Jayden and Emily practice their sword skills for a few seconds before walking up to them. "That was excellent," He commented.

"Thanks mentor," Emily said.

"You're welcome, but there's always room for improvement. I came to tell you that I have a few things to take care of so I'll be gone most of the day but I expect everyone to practice their combat, sword and symbol skills."

"We will Ji," Jayden promised.

"Good, and the rest of us noticed something between you two. Is there something between you?"

Jayden and Emily blushed. "Yeah, we got to talking and we're going to try to be a couple but we swear it won't be a distraction."

"Good because you cannot afford to be distracted Jayden. The defeat of the nighlok and the fate of the world is in your hands."

"I know," he sighed.

"I'll be back in a few hours." With that Ji headed off.

Jayden put down his practice sword and sat on the bench. "You okay Jayden?"

"Yeah, it's just that I'm always being reminded that the fate of the world is on me and it just puts more pressure on me. I know if I screw up the symbol the world is as good as dead."

Emily stood behind Jayden and began massaging his shoulders. "You're really tense,"

"I'm always tense."

"Let me repay you a little for helping me train." Emily continued to work the knots out of Jayden's shoulders in hopes to help him relax.

"You are really good at that."

"Before my parents moved to the farm my mom was a masseuse, she taught me and Serena when we were younger. She always said after a hard day at work every man deserves a relaxing massage to take the edge off."

"I've got to be sure to write her a thank you letter." Jayden felt Emily work out a big knot. "I may just include a fruit basket, I've had that knot for months."

Emily leaned forward so her lips were next to his ear. "You could just thank me." Jayden turned his head and kissed her.
