BECKER'S P.O.V-
A roast. That's what Mrs. Parker Cooked. A full roast. Gammon, roast potatoes, veg,gravy.. It smelt delicious. By now, in the house, it was just the ARC team, Jess, her parents, her siblings, Lia and Kira. Mrs. parker looked at us.
"You can all eat this, right?" She asks. An indirect way to ask us if we are vegetarians. We all nod. She nods, and smiles happily. I'm beginning to see where Jess gets her perkiness from.
"Your boss doesn't mind that you are all out of work, does he?" Mrs. Parker asks, worry leaking in to her expression. Matt shakes his head.
"Don't worry, Mrs. Parker, He doesn't mind," He assures. Jess smiles, and mutters.
"Probaly overjoyed that none of our there." She says. Us Arc people laugh, softly at that.
"Having a private party with the mammoth," Abby adds, making us laugh more. I notice Kaleb raising his eyebrow at 'mammoth'. Mrs. parker seems to overlook that.
"You sure? What if something like yesterday happens today?" She questions futher. I shrug.
"My men is there," I say, referring to my soldiers, "Plus, we can go to the site, from here, and deal with it, Mrs parker." I explain. That was our deal with lester.
"Please. I've told you. Call me Sherry," She says, looking more relaxed with our assurance. Ella Looks at us, from across the table.
"What do you do exactly?" She asks. "Jess doesn't tell us much," She puts a huge emphasise on the 'jess'. We exchange looks, before just shrugging.
"It's just goverment stuff," Abby tells her, edgyly. Ella pulls an asperated look, before leaving the subject alone.
"Mrs parker- Sherry- that dinner was delicious," Emily compliements, polietly. I know she appreciates it. In her opinion, nowadays, people aren't eating proper food like they did in the Victorian era, and she hates it. So I know she likes this roast. Mrs. parker beams. Something Jess does as well.
"Thankyou, Emily. I like being appreciated. No chance from these," She says, looking at her family, who all look back with the same confused expression.
"We apreciate you, mom! We compliement you!" Jess protests. Mrs. parker rolls her eyes. her family nods with her.
"my birthday and mother's day does not count." Mrs. parker says, asperately. All of the parkers full quite. the rest of us smirk at how Jess looked.
JESS'S P.O.V-
We're sittting the lounge again, and the confersation is now no longer a group discussion, but little differnt confersations.
"So, You work with that hot military dude?" Rose mutters to me, And Ella nods. I roll my eyes.
"Yes- but please don't discribe him like that," I say, cringing. It's embarrising to here your little sisters describe your crush like that.
"Why? Don't you think of him like that?" Ella grills. I feel myself blush.
"No...no..no, i do, it's just.. i don't..hearing you to describe-" I stutter. Abby leans in, with Emily.
"Talking about Becker?" Abby asks, smirking. I nod, blushing deeper.
"How you know?" I mumble, still blushing.
"Because you only go red and slutter when the Captain's involved," Emily says, grinning. I roll my eyes.
"Emily! Not you as well!" I say. Her and Abby high five. My sisters just have amused expressions.
"Your sister, right? Totally crushes on Becker," Abby tells them. I hit her, playfully.
"Abs, shut up," I tell her, blushing. Emily laughs slightly.
"I don't see your problem, Jess, he's smitten with you." Emily says. I roll my eyes.
"Guys.. not now," I tell them. They sigh.
"Sure, Jess," They say. I know now they'll torment me extra when I'm back at work.
BECKER'S P.O.V-
It was raining outside. and stormy. I hate the winter- not as much as Jess. I don't think it's actually humanly possible to hate the winter as much as Jess. Like it isn't possible to smile as much as her.
By now, it was 8, and i was beginning to think it's time to head home. Kaleb, Lia and Kira was gone, and they only lived a couple of streets away (Apparently to Jess). The rest of team looked like they were having similar thoughts.
"Alex, Sherry," Emily says, adressing them by their first names. " We really should go home, but it was nice meeting you," She says. They nod.
Sherry looks out of the window, with a concerend look.
"It's pretty stormy.." She says, absently. Jess looks up from fixing her sister's laptop.
"Mother..." She says, warningly. Sherry just gives Jess a little look.
"Are you sure you don't want to stay here for the night? It looks dangerous out there." Sherry asks. Her husband nods. Jess, however, is haking her head like mad.
"Mom- they've faced worst things.." She protests, but gets silenced by a look from her father.
"Sure, we'll love to!" Abby and Connor says, at the same time, with glints in there eyes. Jess scowls.
"Abby! Connor!" She says. Her siblings laugh. Sherry glares at Jess.
"Jessica, shut up." She says, silencing Jess once again. The rest of us agree with Abby and Connor. Well Emily and Matt. I'm against it because it makes Jess unhappy, but i'm out voted.
"It's settled then," Alex says. We nod. Jess looks up again.
"rooms. we have one spare room." Jess says. Sherry pauses, stumped. The rest of her family pull the same expression.
"I'll sleep on the sofa- i don't mind," Cody offers. Jess glares at him, what just causes him to smile wider.
"Jess can sleep on my spare bed- I'll move of all my teddies." Ella adds. Jess glares deeper at her. alex nods.
"It's sorted. You don't mind?" He asks us. We all look at the weather, then shakes are head.
"Okay, who's getting what room? Emily, Matt, you're together, right?" cody asks them. They nod.
"Abby and Connor in the spare room, Emily and Matt in Cody's. Becker can go in mine." Jess says, simply. Abby and Emily mutter something, what makes Jess glare. Probaly about me. Her family nods. This day has turned very interesting.
