Angel with Spurs {Chapter 18: Part 3: A Visit with Jess}

''I hope he wakes up soon''; Naomi thought as she opened the bedroom door and walked in quietly. Hello, Jess; Naomi said softly when she saw his eyes start to open. Hello, Naomi; Jess

said with a smile in Naomi's direction as she sat down on the edge of his bed. How'd you like town, Naomi?; Jess asked curiously. Oh, it was really nice, Jess; Naomi said

with a smile. Did you find something pretty to wear, Naomi?; Jess asked with a wide smile in her direction. I sure did, Jess; Naomi said as she helped him sit up.

I missed you, Naomi, even though you were only gone for a little while; Jess said with a wistful look on his face. I missed you, too, Jess; Naomi said as

she smiled and squeezed his hand. Are you hungry, Jess?; Naomi asked with a smile. I sure am, Naomi; Jess said as she helped him to his feet.

Come on then, Jess; Naomi replied. Let's get some lunch before Slim and Mike gobble it all up; Naomi said jokingly.

Let's do that, Naomi; Jess said with a laugh as they walked out the bedroom door into the kitchen.
