A/N: Loads more to come!
As well as taking team gold with the seniors on the first day, JJ had scraped out an all-around silver by less than a tenth over Bailie Key, as well as qualifying to three of four event finals. Her mistakes on floor had been enough to shut her out of the final due to the two per country rule that was in place, and the fact that Aly had scored higher than her.
There, she had done very well. In vault finals, she had downgraded her Amanar back to a DTY to play it safe, coupling it with a very respectable Lopez to grab another silver behind Simone. Bars had seen a few minor mistakes, keeping her in second yet again while Kyla grabbed the title. Beam and floor, however, had gone better than planned, and she'd taken the senior beam title over Simone, as well as another silver behind Simone on floor.
All in all, despite the mistakes, it had been a good competition for Team USA, and they were easily going home with a handful of medals. After two days following the conclusion of competition to explore Jesolo and enjoy the location, they were headed home.
After the first leg to Paris was over, the girls were hanging around in the transit lounge. Simone was snapchatting with furor, keeping all the girls entertained.
"JJ, do you miss your boyfriend?" Simone asked with a giggle as she held her phone so that JJ was visible behind her.
"Yes," JJ said, pouting dramatically as they all giggled.
"A few more hours and you'll be in his arms," Aly said dramatically, flopping into JJ's lap as Simone's video stopped recording. Giggling, Simone dropped down between JJ and Maggie, posting the video to her story.
By morning, they would all be home.
Why is JJ doing an Amanar if she can't even land it in competition? Does she think she's Simone Biles?
Haha, I can't tell if you're being serious or not. JJ used Jesolo as the testing ground for an Amanar that probably needed another month or so in the gym. She doesn't think she's Simone... no-one in their right mind thinks they're Simone except Simone.
Has JJ peaked?!
Ok almost every question I've got this past week has been to this effect. No, I don't think she's peaked. JJ had a peak in London, where she was one of the best of the bunch and cleaned up five of five medals available to her. In 2013, her coach, Nick, made a very smart move and scaled back her difficulty on beam and floor to limit the strain on her body. They're slowly rebuilding adding in upgrades in preparation for next summer, and this has allowed JJ to have a an unexpected rise to the top. She's already passed the level she was at in London, and she's only going to get better. A few falls in Jesolo means nothing in the bigger picture..
The next morning, JJ was home, her Jesolo medals proudly added to the glimmering collection in the corner of her room. With both of her parents at work, it was Will who had picked her up at the airport. After showering and changing following the three flights it had taken to get from Italy to home, she had had all intentions of taking a well earned nap. However, that had been pushed back for a little while when Will got a little handsy.
After a bit of fooling around, JJ had succumbed to exhaustion, taking a hard earned nap while Will watched a movie beside her.
It was afternoon when she finally awoke again to find Will scrolling absently through Facebook on his phone. Still half asleep, she wriggled over so she could cuddle up to his side, draping an arm across his stomach and laying her head on his shoulder.
"Hey," she mumbled softly, a tired smile on her face.
"Hey sleepy head," Will replied, breaking his attention for a moment to lean down and give her a kiss.
"Whatcha doin?" JJ asked, reaching up and turning his phone in his hand so she could see it.
"Uh, looking at Facebook," Will chuckled. "You quite right there?"
"Mhm," JJ replied, reaching behind her and grabbing her own phone as Will kept scrolling. She opened Snapchat, swiping over to the camera and taking a highly exaggerated selfie, before posting it to her story.
A few more weird photos and videos found their way onto her Snapchat with Will choosing to ignore what she was doing, before she decided to get him in on the action. "Will," she said, recording as she did. "Will"
"What," Will mumbled, his eyes still glued to his phone.
"Wiiiiilll," JJ whined, poking his side and getting a yelp out of him.
"Ow!" he laughed, finally seeing what she was doing. He chuckled as she added the video to the already long story and immediately went to record another. "What are you even doing?" he asked as she started recording. "You're in a really weird mood"
JJ laughed, leaning over and giving him a chaste kiss before giggling. "Blame it on the jetlag," she whispered.
"Yeah, I will, because you're weird and annoying," Will chuckled, looking pointedly at the camera as the last seconds began to roll around. "Don't believe everything you see from her in competition, she's actually crazy"
JJ burst out laughing as the video stopped recording, adding it to her story and tossing her phone down on the bed, before pulling herself up and swinging her leg over Will's so she was straddling his lap. "I missed you," she said softly, the brief bout of half asleep weirdness seemingly gone.
Will smiled up at her, also tossing his phone aside before wrapping his arms loosely around her waist. "I missed you too. Missed your craziness," he chuckled.
Leaning down, JJ kissed him again, but this time, with the passion and intensity she'd been craving for since they left for Jesolo. Will kissed her back just as fiercely, his hands sliding down onto her ass and pulling her closer. His tongue brushed her lower lip, deepening the kiss, raising the heat.
Their makeout session was getting more heated by the minute, both of them wanting as much of each other as they could get. The occurrence earlier hadn't gone any further than wandering hands, considering JJ was so tired. With their rough patch earlier in the year, coupled with Will's stress about having his own place, and JJ's stress about gymnastics, it had been what felt like forever since they had been properly intimate with each other, and the tension of that fact was radiating off of both of them.
Just when Will's hand was starting to slide up JJ's shirt, the slam of the front door made them jump apart.
"JJ, are you home?" came her mother's voice from the bottom of the stairs.
Will groaned. JJ laughed.
"Tonight, I promise," she chuckled, patting his chest, before climbing off him and heading for the door. "We'll stay at your place, and you'll have me all day tomorrow as well"
"I'm holding you to that," Will called after her. Her laugh floated back up the stairs as she went down to see her mom, making his smile grow even wider.
He loved his crazy girl.
