Jade's Discovery

Jade wandered down the meandering hallway toward her uncle's lodgings, 'I wonder if he is still taking a shower? What would he look like dripping wet…with his muscles glistening in the moonlight…whoa I better cut that out.'

Finally arriving at the door of Jackie's room she knocked softly and called out to her uncle. The door swiftly opened to reveal a clean and slightly wet Jackie, "Jade, what are you doing here? It is the middle of the night, you should be in bed, now go on we have a big day tomorrow."

Jade dismissed his comments and motioned for them to step into the room and talk about it. "Jackie, I have been having some weird dreams lately. They seem to be premonitions of what is to come…do you think they mean anything?"

Startled by the way the conversation was going Jackie tried his best to put on a stern face. "Now Jade, dreams do mean a lot of things, but premonitions? That is stretching it a bit far, but since they scare you so…hmm…maybe you should tell me about what it is you are dreaming about."

A bit nervous of telling Jackie all the sordid details, Jade edited her dreams and made sure to not mention any of the more how shall we say…exotic dreams.

"So what you are telling me is that something or someone who plays a part in the evil is coming to destroy me and you? And Yuki is also a part of this evil organization?"

"Yes, that is exactly what I am trying to say. I know it may seem farfetched but it is so vivid in my dreams that I can't help but feel frightened and alone."

"Jade you are never alone, you have me, uncle, and Tohru to keep you safe. Don't ever be afraid to come talk to one of us if this ever happens again. Farfetched as it may be I have seen too many things to let something so strong slip away. We will talk to Uncle and see what he says on the matter, other than that there is nothing more I can do."

"Thanks Jackie, for listening I mean."

"Anytime Jade, anytime."

"I have one more favor to ask Jackie, would you please let me explain it all before you answer?"

"Of course Jade."

"Well, since these dreams are happening to me only when I am alone…"

"I know what you are trying to say Jade…but…"

"Wait you didn't let me finish Jackie, I mean I wouldn't sleep on the bed or nothing just on the floor. Anywhere that isn't my room, please?"

"There is no need for that Jade, you will sleep on the bed while I take the floor."

"No, Jackie I didn't mean for you to sleep on the floor. Never mind, I'll just stay in my own room."

"Nonsense, if the dreams really bother you so much I will not have you lose sleep over it for something as silly as sleeping arrangements. We can both share the bed, it is certainly wide enough."

Feeling her heart beating at a mile a minute Jade walked toward Jackie and gave him a big bear hug. "Thank you Jackie, I don't know what I would do without you."

"Come now, no need for tears…it is alright Uncle Jackie is here. Now let's get some rest, we have a big day tomorrow."

Without further ado they went about their nightly activities changing into their night clothes, brushing their teeth, and grabbing a drink of water before heading to bed. "So which side do you want Jade left or right?"

"Doesn't matter to me Jackie, I could have slept on the floor but either side is fine."

"Alright you take the right and I'll take the left. Could you turn on the nightstand lamp?" After Jackie closed the main light the room gave off a homier feeling…much like a suite or a cozy fire.

With the moonlight dancing through the window Jackie easily maneuver his way to the left side of the bed. Falling lightly he tucked himself in and whispered good night to Jade.

All the while Jade was having trouble sleeping…it seemed to be a bit too hot in the room. Or at least that is how she felt, in such close quarters with Jackie did that to her, 'This is ridiculous, we are just sleeping in the same bed, not making love. There is nothing to be this nervous about, yep nothing at all.' That was until Jade found out why so many women chased after Jackie, you see Jackie only wore a thin T-shirt to bed and boxers.

With such little fabric to hold in his physique it was no wonder Jade stared and stared at the Adonis that was her uncle. Capturing the visage of the slumbering martial artist in her mind forever, Jade soon fell asleep wrapped in another sort of dream, but one that was definitely more pleasurable, at least that is how anyone who looked at Jade's slumbering face would assume.

By the middle of the night, the two had slowly but surely inched ever so closely together…almost as if their bodies knew what their brains would not allow. Thus by the time morning came…their bodies were entangled with each other…showcasing their bodies need for the warmth they found in each other's arms.
