Hope you enjoy and please review!

A week of torture passed slowly for Nick and Jess. Both of their haunting questions hung in the air creating a thick wall between them. Nick came home early one afternoon from work to find Jess laying on the couch watching "Dirty Dancing" and wearing her favorite pair of pj's. It was at that moment that something just snapped for Nick. "What the hell are you doing Jess?" Nick screamed at her, letting out all the steam from the past week.

Jess hadn't heard Nick come in and jumped almost 2 feet in the air when she heard him shout. Jess' face could have stopped a wrestler in the middle of a round. Tears were now streaming down her face and she was holding the blanket closer, still staring at the TV. Nick suddenly realized his mistake and came to sit by Jess, but as soon as he touched the couch she bolted to her room, carrying the blanket with her. Nick threw his head in his hands, rubbing his temples. What had he done? He had just chased her away even more. Nick was just about to try and fix the situation when Jess came out of her room in a black polka dotted dress, her eyes wild and her curls thrown up in a ponytail.

"If you follow me out that door Nicholas, you will never get me back. I just need some time to think, ok?" Jess yelled grabbing the keys to her car hastily, not even waiting for Nick to reply as she slammed the door shut.

Jess almost broke down crying right then and there but told herself that a drive would make her feel better. As she hit the elevator button she almost wished that Nick would come after her, but she knew that the threat of her leaving him scared him half to death.

As she half-heartedly slammed the car door and started the engine, she wondered why Nick had been so distant. Did he know? Nick wasn't really good at analyzing situations like this, let alone tolerating them. Jess sighed and drove out of the parking lot (it was Jess' week to occupy the spot). As soon as she stopped at a red light she quickly yanked her headphones out of her purse, stuffed them in her ears and dialed CeCe's number.

"CeCe we need to talk, it's serious."

"Jess, are you ok?" CeCe said, with concern in her tone.

"I'm fine right now, Nick and I just had a fight, it's just...something else. Can I come over? I don't want to talk over the phone."

"Sure honey, come right over." CeCe said, trying to cheer Jess up. There was silence on the other end, "See you soon love."

Finally Jess broke the silence and replied, "I have to stop by the store first, so I'll see you in a half an hour." Jess hung up the phone before she broke out in tears, pulling to the side of the road and gripping the steering wheel hard. She bowed her head, accidentally honking the horn with her head in the process, and quickly yanked it up in response. How could this be happening? Things were going so perfect, Nick loved her, she loved him, they were going steady with the thoughts of marriage in both their minds. Maybe she was just making things up , being irrational.

Jess took a deep breath and pulled back onto the busy road. Driving made it easier to think for her; the feel of being in control and the silence that pursued when she was the only one in the car.

Jess pulled into the Walgreens parking lot and slowly got out of her car, grabbing her keys and purse. She walked into the store feeling the satisfying breeze of the AC hit her face, and started perusing the aisles.

Finding what she needed quickly she dragged her feet to the check out counter, thumbing through her wallet and pulling out a $20. The cashier, a pretty blonde who looked like she was still in high school, smiled at her politely and handed her her change.

As Jess walked out of the air conditioned store and into the L.A. heat she had the sudden urge to throw up. Running quickly to the nearest garbage can she pulled back her ponytail and puked up all of today's lunch. Groaning she looked up to see a set of eyes staring at her. Jess grimaced and briefly apologized hurrying off to her car, her face beet red.

Jess grabbed a warm bottle from her purse, cleaned her mouth out with it and then finished the rest of it uncomfortably. She sighed again and jumped in the car, starting up the engine again. She probably just had a bug, or maybe her lunch was bad...she knew she had to think positive though.

Jess pulled up into CeCe's parking lot and turned off the engine. Well, here we go, she thought.

Ok short chapter, a definite filler. Reviews?
