Oh my god.. I can't stop watching the clips for the next episode especially the morning after one.. Tuesday needs to be here fast.
Anyway next chapter up, hope you like it :)
Schmidt came running into the apartment as if there was so sort of national emergency "Nick! Nick!" Looking around a Nick-less room.
"Jesus Schmidt he isn't back yet, what is so important." Jess replied.
"It's a matter of life and death Jessica. I need Nick to go on a double date tonight with me."
"What! Why do you need Nick to go." Jess started panicking she didn't exactly want Nick to go on a date if it wasn't with her.
"The girl I met at the bar last night will only go out with me if I bring a friend to go out with her sister. Winston still has that thing going on with Daisy, which leaves Nick... It be good for him anyway it's time he got some."
Jess felt a gut retching feeling in her stomach. "I really don't think that is the best idea Schmidt, Nick is really bad at blind dates. Surely there must be someone else."
"No there isn't.. Darn it where is he?"
At that point Nick walked through the door. "Where's who?"
"Ah Nick! Just the man I wanted to see. I need you to help me have sexual intercourse tonight."
"You want me to do what now?" Nick wasn't quite sure if he had heard Schmidt correctly. He looked over at Jess Incase she could shed some light on what was going on. But as he looked over at her he frown slightly. She was sitting on the sofa staring into space barely moving and he could swear her eyes were slightly watery.
"I have arranged a date for you and me tonight. I met a gorgeous woman at the bar last night, but there a slight problem with the fact she will only go out with me if I bring a date for her sister. I preceded to tell her that I have best friend who would be perfect."
Now Nick understood why Jess looked like he did he would have to get out of this some how "Schmidt I can't go."
"Why not Nicholas? I know your not working tonight and it's not like you have important things to do. I really need you to come with me please Nick."
"I don't like blind dates it always ends up bad."
"I'm not asking you to marry this girl, just go out on a date with her so I can nail her sister, you never know you might get lucky yourself if you play our cards right. I'm not taking no for an answer Nick you own me plenty of favors I am just cashing in one . We meet them at 8, wear something half descent."
With that Schmidt walked back out the door.
"Crap! Jess don't worry I am going to try and get out of it. I don't know how but I will think of something before tonight."
Jess just say there unusually quite for the normally talkative, quirky person she is. "Nick, I think you are going to have to go."
"What are you crazy? You want me to go on a date with this woman."
"No Nick of course I don't want you to go on a date. But it sounds like Schmidt really does need you to go, and unless you tell him the real reason you don't want to go. I don't see another option."
Nick sat down next to Jess, he knew she was right. He put his hand on her shoulder to brush back her hair. "Jess you know I don't want to go. The only person I want to be on a date with is you, but your right Schmidt does a lot for me..."
"Yeah I know, just promise me you won't enjoy it." She turns to look at him. Nick takes her into his arm, Jess tucks her head under his chin curling into him.
"How could I Jess?"
"This sucks!"
Nick chuckles and Jess could feel the vibrations in his chest
"Yes, this sucks a lot."
Later on Nick and Schmidt are getting ready for the double date. The latter putting more effort into his outfit whilst Nick was dragging his heels in just about everything he could.
"For crying out loud Miller, hurry up or we will be late."
"Calm down Schmidt nearly there. Why don't you go and get the car and ill meet you downstairs."
"Fine, but don't keep me waiting long."
Nick was glad that Schmidt had left it meant he could get a few minutes alone with Jess who was currently hiding out in her room.
"Jess? We are going now."
"Greeaat. If you want me to say have fun, you might be waiting awhile." She knew she was being childish. They had spoken about this earlier and she understood why he was going but still didn't mean she had to like it
Nick didn't say anything else. Instead he walked up to her lent down so he was the same height as her and pulled her to him and into a kiss they sent tingles all the way down to her toes. Also making her feel very twirly indeed.
"I might be having to go out on this date Jessica, but this is the bed that ill be coming home to later." He whispered into her ear.
With that leaving a very stunned Jess, who was touching her lips after that kiss.
Nick met Schmidt at the car and they drove to the bar that they were meeting the girls.
Walking in to a very cocktail type bar Nick already regretting coming. Schmidt walked straight towards two women who had some sort of colourful cocktails in their hands.
Schmidt gave the tall, light brown hair one a kiss on he cheek and she turned to introduce her sister who was smaller than her with lighter hair "This is my sister Amy."
"Pleasure to meet you Amy, this is my friend who I brought with me tonight.. Nick this is Tracy and her sister Amy."
"Hey good to meet ya." Nick shook both the girls hands. Looking at Amy who he was meant to be on a date with, he noticed that she had brown eyes. Not deep brown like his, more hazel like. But all he could think of we're blue ones. He sighed.. This is going to be a long night.
They grabbed a table and got their drinks. Nick wasn't impressed with the drinks menu everything was too fancy and over priced. What was wrong with regular good beer.
He had admit he wasn't sure what they others were talking about. He hoped he had said a few things that made sense so he didn't come across as rude. Though for the first time in awhile Nick was glad Schmidt talked as much as he did, which meant Nick could get away with saying very little. Most of the time he kept his eye on the clock behind the bar.
About half way through the date Schmidt and Tracy decided to go outside for some air. Leaving Nick and Amy alone together. Amy had been getting more confident, but when the other left she got very bold. Her had went to Nick's leg.
At her touch Nick almost kept from the table. "Ahhh, what ya doing there."
"Oh come on Nick, I know you are into me. I'm good at picking up the signals."
Ok so this is why her sister had to make sure that Amy had dates because she was a raving lunatic.
"Look Amy, I'm sorry that if I gave you those signals, truth be told I am only here for Schmidt."
"Really? I don't believe you. I think you are just play coy with me." With this age got close and started playing with the buttons on Nick shirt
At this point Nick did stand up " I'm going to get some more drinks, you want anything?"
She shock her head bite her lip " hurry back"
When Nick at the bar Schmidt came over. "Hey man, thanks for coming tonight but Tracy and I are leaving. She is going to show me her place." Schmidt did a little happy jig.
"You leaving me here with the crazy one after you dragged me here."
"You will be fine Nick."
"Easy for you to say, you got the sane one."
"You ready to go Schmidt?"
"Yeah, see you later Nick."
Great now what do I do, Nick thought. He headed back to the table and sat as far away from Amy that that was possible.
He decided the truth was the only way out of it. "Amy, I'm sorry for letting you think there maybe something going in here but the truth is..." Could he say it, he hadn't it to any one not even Jess, hell especially not Jess. "The thing is.. I have a girlfriend. It's just that Schmidt doesn't know about her yet."
"Oh." She looked disappointed more than Nick was expecting.
"Yeah it's just she means a lot too me, and your a nice person an all but well I don't want to mess up what u have with her."
"No of course not, I understand Nick. Completely. It's nice that you have someone. What is she like."
"Oh man, she is amazing, beautiful, highly irritating." Nick laughed fondly "She has these amazing eyes that you could just get lost in."
"Wow sounds quite a girl."
"She is. Amy I know this is a cheek asking you this but can you keep it to yourself. I don't want Schmidt finding out about her.
"Of course Nick. I should be going."
"Sure you ok getting home."
Yeah I will be fine Nick.. This girl of yours is lucky to have you, you are a sweet guy Nick." She gave him quick peck on his cheek. It gave him nothing like the feelings he got he Jess did the same.
Nick knew he wanted to get back to the loft as quickly as possible and be with the girl he spent most of his night thinking about.
Back at the loft Jess was trying to distract herself. Tv or reading didn't work, not house chores . She was running out of options so she ended up sitting on he sofa driving herself crazy with the thought of what Nick could be doing on his date.
She sat there for a little while before the door slammed open making her scream out loud. "Oh my god Nick! Are you trying to kill me!"
"I am so sorry Jess, I was in Such a hurry I didn't mean to open the door like that.
"Why are you hear anyway. I thought you were on your date" she said with as much contempt as possible.
"Well when I told my date that I had a girlfriend who means a lot too me. She wasn't so interested in me any more."
Jess just stood there her arm going limp by her side. "What did you say?"
Nick went closer to her and put his hand on both her shoulders and looked her straight in the eyes so she could hopefully see the truth behind his words. A fleeting thought of how much better looking into those blue eyes again.
"You heard me. I told her that I had a girlfriend. I shouldn't have gone Jess it wasn't fair on you."
Jess smiled, the kind of smile that lights up her whole face, her eyes were watering just a bit too. She didn't have anything she could say that would be right so she brought her hands up behind his neck and into his hair and pulled him in for an earth shattering kiss. Hoping that everything she couldn't find words for went into the kiss. Nick was just as quick to bring his arms around her bringing her as close as possible. He began to move them into her bedroom so he could finish of what he should have before going out on to a date.
"I am very happy that my boyfriend is back from his date" Jess spoke softly against Nicks mouth.
