Chapter 8: Next Morning

Emma woke up by the sound of Shalimar and Brennan laughing. For a few minutes she was trying to think where she was. She nearly screamed when Jesse moved around.

"Dam it Jesse!" She yelled, slapping him on the head.

"Emma what was that for?" Jesse said rubbing his head as he sat up.

"You scared me you jerk."

"Well sorry for sleeping 'cause that's what I was doing before you slapped me. I was sleeping. I didn't know sleeping scared you, I should sleep more often just to-"

"Shut up. Why are you being a butt, are you always like this when you wake up?"

"No, I'm always like this when I get slapped across the head for sleeping, then I act like this." Jesse grabbed the fallen pillow from the floor, and put it on the opposite armrest that Emma led up against. Fluffing up the pillow, he went back to sleep, or so he tried.

"Jess what are you doing?"

"Going back to sleep."

"Why Brennan and Shalimar are up, and Adam is probity up-"

"And that concerns me..."

"Jesse stop acting like Brennan." That made Jesse jump off of the couch.

"What did you say?" he said in a serious tone

"I said stop acting like Brennan."

"Don't ever say that again, Ok?"

"Ok." She said very confused

"Lets eat breakfast." He said as he walked out to the lounge, with Emma following behind him.

"Good morning you two, How was your movie?" Brennan asked when he saw them walking up.

"It was good, but I think I fell asleep half way though." Emma said.

"How was your dinner Jess?" Asked Shalimar

"It was the best. It made up for everything that bad happened yesterday. Oh, that reminds me...Brennan?"

"What?"

"You and me are going car shopping today."

"Man you're rich, why can't you buy your own car?"

"Because I wasn't the one who destroyed it. And Adam told you to buy me a new car."

"Fine, fine, fine."

"Can I come with you guys when you go car 'shopping'?"

"Sure, Emma you want to come?"

"Sure, me and Shal can help you pick a new car."

"No!" Brennan stated

"That's a great idea. Lets leave in a hour or so."

"Ok." The girls said in unison.

Hour Later

Jesse, Shalimar and Emma were all in the Mustang waiting for Brennan. Brennan was in the lab pleading with Adam to change his mind about making him buy Jesse a new car.

"Adam do I have to?"

"For the tenth...yes." Adam was getting a bit annoyed by Brennan and his stubbornness, "You destroyed Jesse's car when you didn't have his permission to drive it, and you knew that you'll have to buy him a new one."

"But-"

"Brennan hurry up and strop complaining to Adam. Get your ass over here." Jesse said over his comm.-link.

"Fine."

"You know Brenn, you have been saying fine a lot." Shalmar said.

"Go Brennan. We'll talk later."
