Part 25

Morning came and Sneaks went to Gin's room to get her ready for the day they both had been dreading. She had a small tray of some toast and coffee to wake her up. Sneaks had taken her time coming up to the door cause she knew what Gin was prepared to do should Jack's plan not work.

Sneaks stopped at the door and sighed. She knew this day was going to be very hard on the both of them. She knocked lightly on the door before she entered. Sneaks slipped into the room and set the tray down on the small table near the bed. She then went to open the curtains.

When she looked onto the bed she nearly screamed in shock. There was Gin was sleeping in the arms of Jack. Sneaks ran to the bedroom door and locked it then she ran to the window and closed the curtains before returning to the bed.

Sneaks shook her head before she bent down and shook Gin's arm until the girl opened her eyes. At first there was a smile across Gin's face till she realized what was happening and she sat straight up bring the blankets with her to cover herself.

"Good morning." Voiced Sneaks sarcastically

"Oh no" Gin mouthed

"You gonna wake him up or should I"

Gin turned to see Jack still sleeping soundly next to her and she couldn't help but smile.

"Jack" she whispered shaking his shoulders

He mumbled and rolled over.

"Jack" she whispered again

She looked back to Sneaks who just shrugged her shoulders.

"I don't know what to do" whispered Gin

"Neither do I"

Gin turned back to Jack biting her lower lip. Suddenly she got an idea and grabbed his face landing a kiss on his lips that clearly woke him up.

"Good morning to you too" he said dreamily

"Jack think about what you just said." Sneaks stated

Jack looked at her in shock and tried to get up only succeeding in falling off the bed. Which brought laughter to Gin and Sneaks both.

"Not funny. One of you mind giving me my clothes" was Jack's reply as he tried to wrap the sheet around his waist.

Sneaks picked up his pants which had landed over Gin's mirror and hand them to Gin. Gin leaned over the bed gave them to Jack. She covered him from Sneaks as he quickly put his pants on. Once his pants were secure he went for his shirt. Buttoning it as he went he went back to the bed and kissed Gin one last time before Sneaks guided him through the house.

Gin was worried they would get caught so she swiftly threw on some clothes and went to the window to wait. Seeing Jack began to take off down the street she smiled. He turned back to look at her and she blew a kiss his way as he smiled and continued down his way back to the Lodging House. He had a wedding to crash.

When Sneaks went back to the bedroom she was surprised to see Gin almost laughing she was so happy.

"You're insane you know that" Sneaks said sternly

Gin just laughed.

"You're both lucky I was the first to come in here."

Gin laughed all the harder. Sneaks looked at her and couldn't help but start to laugh as well.

"Are you hungry" Sneaks asked

"Starving" Gin went over to the tray and picked up a piece of toast.

"Gin did you really have to do that" asked Sneaks as Gin took a bite

"Do what"

"You know"

"Oh Sneaks you don't understand. We couldn't sleep." Giggled Gin

"Looked to me like you were sleeping pretty good" laughed Sneaks

"I've never slept so good." Replied Gin through her laughter

Suddenly there was a knock at the door and the laughter stopped. Gin's mother poked her head in the door and looked in.

"I'm glad you're in a good mood Gin." Gin smiled at her mother.

"I knew this wedding stuff would get to you eventually."

"You could say that, Mother"

"We're leaving in two hours for the church. Your dress is already there."

"Thank you, Mother" she said as the woman retreated from the door
