Here is the final chapter of this story, guys! This one was really fun to write and I hope y'all enjoy it :) And do not worry...there will definitely be more Jamie x Eddie stories down the line...I just love them to pieces!
I do not own anything lol..
"Ya know," Jamie said sleepily as he began to stir on Eddie's floor - slowly waking up. "I didn't think this is what we meant when we said 'bright and early'." Jamie joked, sleep coating his voice.
Eddie mumbled something and curled up into herself more, just not willing to wake up at the moment.
Jamie laughed as he sat up, causing her to sit up in the process. Somehow, the two of them had ended up laying on the floor, her beside him but slightly on top of him as well. "Come on, Eddie." Jamie said, shaking her gently. "We gotta go to work today."
"No." Eddie pouted like a child, her eyes tightly shut as she crossed her arms over her chest in a defiant way.
Jamie laughed even more. "Come on, Eddie!" He nudged her playfully. "Get off me!"
"With all them sibblings you got, you can't manage to push me off?" She slurred, her eyes not as tightly shut now.
"That a challenge, Janko?" Jamie asked, his eyes sparkling with mischief.
"I don't know, Reagan. What did it sound like to you?"
Jamie could tell she was more awake now by the way she was trying to hide the fact that she was smirking.
"I think it sounded like a challenge." He said simply, smiling as he placed his hands on her waist. "Challenge accepted!" He exclaimed as he rolled over with her.
She squealed as he did - her eyes popping open and a laugh escaping her lips as she landed softly on the ground in front of him - not as close as they had been but not too far away either.
Jamie laughed along with Eddie for a bit before they both heard her stomach grumble.
"You hungry?" Jamie asked, glancing down at her stomach before looking back up into her eyes.
She smiled, biting her bottom lip. "Always, Reagan."
Jamie laughed as he stood, pulling her up to her feet behind him. They both all but ran to the kitchen, both telepathically knowing it was going to be a race to see who could get to the eggs in the refrigerator first.
Jamie laughed as Eddie pushed him aside and he bumped against the counter. He just watched her as she hastily opened the door and grabbed the carton of eggs. Smiling triumphantly, she turned to him - handing him the gray egg carton that was designed to hold a dozen eggs but now held around five.
Jamie shook his head and reached for the carton, his fingers brushing against Eddie's briefly before Eddie let go of the carton and walked around Jamie to get a frying pan out of the cabinet behind him.
Jamie looked around her small kitchen, spotting the oven. He made his was over to it as Eddie appeared beside him with a bowl and a pan.
"Scrambled?" He asked, taking the bowl from her hands as she began digging around in a drawer for a wisk.
"Pfft, duh." She rolled her eyes playfully as Jamie began to crack the remaining eggs from the carton into the bowl.
Jamie laughed, shaking his head as he finished cracking all the eggs into the bowl. "You wanna stir?" He asked, offering her the wisk playfully.
She just looked up at him, a smile twitching on her lips as she shook her head. "Nahh. I'll let you give it a go. You are my guest, after all."
"Alright." Jamie nodded as he began to wisk the eggs to perfection.
Meanwhile, Eddie walked over to her refrigerator and opened the freezer in search of some of the frozen breakfast foods she kept in there. "Pancakes or waffles?" She asked, briefly glancing behind her at Jamie.
"Oh, waffles, definitely." Jamie answered as if it wasn't even a question. "You got syrup?"
"Do I have syrup." Eddie mocked, rolling her eyes as she pulled the eggo waffles out of the freezer.
"Right, I forgot who I was talking to Eddie Janko - my pretty, food loving partner." Jamie smirked, unaware until it was too late that he had let the 'pretty' part slip.
Eddie couldn't help but smile a bit at his words, her stomach feeling butterfly-ish. She didn't push it, though. She just nodded and began to prepare the waffles. "That's right."
After they had finished making breakfast, they piled the plates up on her kitchen table and took a seat infront of them.
"Geez, Jamie!" Eddie exclaimed as she scooped up another spoonful of eggs. "How did you make these eggs this good? They're eggs, for crying out loud. Shouldn't they all taste the same?" She asked as she chewed.
Jamie laughed as he shoveled some into his mouth as well. "Reagan family secret."
Eddie stopped and just looked at him. "You Reagans even have secrets for eggs?"
Jamie just shrugged, holding her gaze as he placed another forkful of food into his mouth.
Eddie just shook her head and continued eating.
"What surprises me is these waffles." Jamie shook his head, cutting his second waffle up. "They're amazing."
"Thanks." Eddie laughed, shaking her head as she watched him shove food in his mouth like she had been the at the buffet.
The buffet...the night before. All of a sudden, Eddie wanted to talk about last night.
She wanted to thank him.
"Jamie?" She asked quietly, her fork clicking against her plate as she rested her hand from eating so she could talk.
"Hmm?" Jamie asked, still stuffing waffles into his mouth.
It was hard for Eddie to remain serious with her handsome partner eating like an animal just a mere two or three feet infront of her - but it had to be done. At least, in her mind it did.
Eddie cleared her throat. "I just - I just wanted to thank you for coming over last night."
He stopped with his fork and looked up at her - now chewing slowly.
"I mean - you didn't have to do that. You didn't have to come over here and - sleep with me on the floor." She laughed a bit, scratching the back of her neck as she looked down at her breakfast. "You're my partner - being my psychiatrist isn't in your job description."
"Maybe not, but being a friend is." Jamie answered as her blue eyes looked up to find his. "I was glad to come and help you, Eddie. I'm glad you called me to help you get through the night."
Eddie nodded, becoming a bit misty eyed. "I'm - I'm just glad you are like you are."
Jamie wasn't quite sure what she meant, but her had a pretty good idea. He reached across the table, resting his hand over hers. "I'll do whatever I can to help you get through this, Eddie."
A small tear slipped down her cheek as she nodded. "Thank you, Jamie."
"No problem." He smiled, rubbing his fingertips lightly over her hand before the both if them continued eating. Jamie kept his hand where it was the whole time they were eating. Eddie's fingers began to brush his as well as she ate.
Eddie smiled because she knew that she could get through this. She knew that it would be hard, but with Jamie's support, she also knew that she would eventually be getting through this.
Well, what did you guys think? Good ending or what? I love every single one of you guys who reviews and favorites and follows...even those of you who just read. It makes me happy :) Keep it up!
