"Go away Nick!" Jess hollered through the the bathroom door. "Just leave me the fuck alone!"
With tears streaming down his face, Nick was at a complete loss. He had been begging and pleading with Jess to open the door for the past 20 minutes; relentlessly apologizing over and over again, but she wouldn't have it, she was hurt and embarrassed.
"I'll do anything Jess, please just..."
"No Nick! Just go. I can't even look at you right now!" Nick heard Jess slump down to the floor and he could tell that she was exhausted from the one-sided screaming match.
His hand was still hovering over the door, "Please Nick, I can't do this right now." Jess sobbed.
Nick hesitated, but lowered his hand in defeat. Wiping the tears from his eyes, he took in a deep breath and uttered "I'm sorry I hurt you Jess, that was never my intention, but I hope one day you can forgive me." He heard her let out a low whimper and then decided it was time to give her some privacy.
Nick turned to Winston's empty bedroom; Reagan was still packing in his room and he had no where else to go. Winston's room was the safest place in the loft at the present moment and he honestly didn't give two fuck's about breaking the loft contract right now, he just needed a safe place to hunker down for the night.
"Jess! Are you in there?" Cece called from the hallway.
After her fight with Nick, Jess had fallen asleep on the bathroom floor. She hadn't wanted to risk bumping into him or Reagan, so she had remained in the bathroom praying that no one else would witness her in this state.
"Hey babe, are you ok? It's safe, Reagan and Nick aren't home."
"What time is it?" Jess squeaked.
"It's 7, babe. Schmidt is having a slight panic attack out here. Do you think you could open the door?" Cece tried to reason, even though she knew her husband was acting irrationally.
She heard Jess shuffle to her feet and click open the lock. Cece slowly pushed the door open giving Jess enough time to move away, "Hey babe, what's going on? Why were you in here all night?"
Hiding behind the bathroom stall, Jess piped "It's nothing Ceec. Can you just tell Schmidt to come take care of his business quickly? I'd like for the loft to be empty before I attempt my exit."
"Ah come on Jess, just come out of there. I promise it's just me. I'll tell Schmidt to stay in the kitchen that way we can go to your room." Cece turned to Schmidt and began shooing him back down the hallway towards the kitchen.
Jess slowly cracked the toilet stall open and peaked her head out. When Cece reappeared, Jess lowered her gaze to the floor and allowed her friend to usher her out towards her bedroom.
"It's about time Jessica! I should have been out of the shower 30 minutes ago, the chute-ney needs a full hour to set. Now my whole morning routine has been thrown off and I'm going to be late for work!" Schmidt griped.
Cece shot him a warning glare before closing Jess' bedroom door behind them. As she turned, she watched her friend flop down onto the bed and curl her small frame into a ball. "What's going on Jess? Why are you so upset? Did Reagan find out about you and Nick?"
"Yes! But it's worse than that Ceec." Jess whined.
"How can it be worse Jess? What could you have possibly done?" Cece probed as she sat down next to Jess.
"I'm so embarrassed, I can never face Reagan, Nick nor Winston ever again!"
Cece furrowed her brow in confusion. "What, how is that even possible Jess? Winston and Nick do embarrassing stuff all the time."
"No, this is worse Cece. I have broken every loft agreement that has ever been known to mankind! I don't even think Nick and I will ever be able to recover from this."
"Come on Jess, you're being silly now. Nick loves you, he doesn't care about this type of stuff. You could shit your pants in public and he would still proudly parade you around on his arm."
Jess smiled, "That's just gross Cece!" than quickly frowned again. "Trust me when I say that this is much worse."
"Well tell me then, let me be the judge."
"Ok, but you have to promise me that what I am about to tell you, will never ever get back to Schmidt. And I mean NEVER!"
"I promise with all my heart Jess and seal it with a pinky swear." Cece said as she crossed her finger over her chest, than held out her little finger.
Jess hesitated, but ended up taking Cece's pinky with her own, allowing Cece to give her a solid shake.
She inhaled deeply and began divulging all there was to tell from the prior evening.
"Woah! That is some heavy stuff Jess. I mean it's so sexy, yet sad and cruel. What the hell were you guys thinking?"
"ARGH! WHAT AM i GOING TO DO?" Jess screamed into her pillow, kicking her feet in the air.
"I can completely understand why you're embarrassed, but trust me when I say this, Nick would never intentionally hurt you. I mean sure, I want to strangle him right now. He knows how fragile you are, but at the same time can you really blame the guy for going through with it? It's every man's fantasy to have a threesome with two women, especially two very hot women."
Jess turned her head looking up to her friend. "I know Cece, but you should have seen them. He just fell back into his stupid chair and allowed her to ride him like I didn't even exist. And then to top it off, he blew his load like he had just had the best sex of his life!"
"I think you are exaggerating Jess, you can't honestly believe that he actually enjoyed having her assault his pole like that. It probably felt more like a self-induced handjob."
Jess couldn't help but giggle.
"Besides, I just find it hard to believe that he would be all over you one second and not want to finish what he had started with you in the elevator."
"Maybe you're right Cece, but what am I supposed to do? I can't face him, especially when that floozy is still living under our roof!"
Brushing her hand over Jess' cheek, "I'm telling you Jess, Reagan took advantage of the situation. She was trying to get back at you both for having an affair."
"URGH... I know you're right, but I'm still mad at him. And at this very moment I don't think I can live here any more."
"Listen Jess, just come to the bar tonight. Nick's not working and we can figure things out. Ok?"
Jess just turned her head back to her pillow and nodded. She wasn't sure what she was going to do, but she needed to get away, and the sooner the better.
I'm not abandoning this. I promise. I was just frustrated the other day. I finally feel inspired to keep writing. Last's night episode was great!
And for those who want a one shot, I promise I will try to get to it, but every time I start one I end up tying it to this story. So I think you will need to wait until I am done with this one. Besides more Sexyness is to come, I hope :~ I need inspiration and feedback always helps.
I began the next chapter last night, but I'm not sure when it will be done yet.
