The Dog That Brought Them Together

Chapter 13

Jessies POV-
We were out getting coffee, and chatting.
"So, What are your plans tomorrow?" Jeremy asked, sipping his coffee and keeping one eye on the road.
"Luke." I groaned.
"Why the groan?" He asked.
"Cause, I have to tell him I moved."
"Oh, Yeah, Have fun." He replied.
"Thanks."

~Later that night.~
I was sitting on the couch re-watching the third episode of Orange is the New Black, When Jeremy came in, and sat down next to me. I realized how close we got over the trip.. Literally.
He use to be half a cushion away, at the least. Now, He sat so close, we almost touched.
"Mm." He made a sound. I looked over, he was staring at his phone, I leaned in to look. He was texting Neil, something about plans tomorrow.

He turned to look at me, his nose brushed mine.
"Can I help ya?" He asked.
"Er, Not really." I answered, Then, He did something i wasn't exactly expecting. He pecked me on the nose quickly. Turning back to his phone as if nothing happened.

It might not have meant much to him, but, it was enough to make me blush.

Jeremys POV-
"Why are you blushing?" I asked, furrowing an eyebrow.
"Hm?" She asked.
"Pf, Nevermind." I said, turning back to my phone.
"Whatever."
What are you guys doing -Neil
Not much -Me
Cool, Anything tomorrow?
I think she is gonna see Luke, but, it wont be a long date.
What makes you say.
Remember, hes not gonna like the fact shes moving in with a male.
Oh yea, you up to anything tomorrow.
Nope.
Good, See you later

"What's Neil want?" She asked.
"Dunno, Wait, How'd you know it was Neil?"
"Couple minutes ago, I was a couple inches from the screen."
"Oh yeah."

~10 AM~
I walked into my living room, the sight of a body sprawled on my couch startled me.
Its Jess, you idiot.
I walked into my kitchen, and started making pancakes.

"Yo Jess." I kicked the couch, Waited a couple seconds, "YO" I kicked it again.
"Wha- Stop!" She said. "Um..Jer?"
"What." I replied, sitting down on the floor..
"Remember, Blurry vision." She said "Making sure its you."
"Last time I checked, I was Jeremy.. So." I replied, sticking the fork in my mouth again. "Oh and, help yourself to pancakes or anything you can find."
"M'Kay." She said, Getting up.

She returned with pancakes.
"These are delicious. Buy 'em or make 'em."
"Well. Both." I said sarcastically.

"Pf. Anyway, Thanks Jer. But, Next time, Put pants on." She said, motioning toward my underwear.
"My house." I groaned.
"So. Respect your guest's request." She said.
"Pf. No." I said.
"Pf, Yes,But anyway, Cute underwear."
"Stop looking." I said.
"Can't, the sight of your adorable puppy underwear is unbearable.
"Shut up." I groaned. "My mom bought them."

"Want me to take your plate?" She asked.
"Um, Sure." I handed it to her, and stood up, getting on the couch.
Neil let himself in, and plopped down next to me. Jessie reappeared.
"Bruh, Nice underwear." Neil said.
"Thats what I said!" Jessie said, sitting down on my other side.
"Shut up guys." I said.

"I will if you put on some pants." Neil said.
"Make me." I said jokingly "Its my house anyway." I stood to go put some pants on, Neil stood up too.
He dropped his jeans, and sat back down. I just stared at him.
I fell back on the couch.
"Really." Jessie said.

Jessies POV-
"Yes." Neil said. "Wanna join the party."
"Erm, No." I giggled.
"Why not!" Jeremy said smirking. I rolled my eyes.
"Oh and Neil, I like your underwear too." I said. His underwear were a lime green, with a black outline around the crotch, pink inside the black outline.
"Well, Er, Thanks." He blushed.

"What was that Neil?" Jeremy asked.
"Hm?" He remained looking strait ahead. Jeremy laughed a bit.

~An hour later~
Jeremy had been playing Skyrim on his Playstation, Neil past out.
"Bleh. Luke got his license and he's coming to get me, in 30 minutes." I said.
"M'kay." Jeremy replied.
I got up to get a drink, I had my phone in my right hand, I tripped a bit on Jeremy's foot. I didn't fall, but i dropped my phone on Neil. He woke up.
I reached forward to get it, picked it up, and accidentally brushed his crotch. Only a bit, but enough to make us both blush.

"What's with the pink?" I heard Jeremy ask.
"Um, Nothin'." Neil replied.
"Uh-huh." Jeremy said. "Don't quiet believe you."
"Just, Let it go." Neil whined.
"Whatever." Jeremy replied.

There was a knock on the door. Neil fretted, and pulled his pants up. Jeremy rushed to the back.
Neil opened the door, I walked up behind him.
Luke's lip went up in disgust. "And who would you be?"
Neil's eyebrow furrowed "Neil.. Neil Westfall." He offered his hand, but Luke kinda ignored him.
"Here to see Jessie. Where is she." Luke said, Demanding.
"Here." I squeezed infront of Neil."
"Did he hurt you?" Luke whispered.
"Er, No." I said, Neil furrowed his eyebrow again. "Neil isn't that kind of guy."

"Neil isn't what kind of guy?" Jeremy shouted.
"Come in." I said, we all walked back to the living room.
"Who's that."
"Jeremy." I said
Neil sat down and whispered something into Jeremy's ear. Jeremy furrowed his eyebrow,Neil leaned in and added something. Jeremy had a look of disgust on his face.

"Luke, Anyway, What do you want."I asked, Me and Luke walked into the kitchen
"I wanted to apologize, Ya know." He said, Grabbing my hand.
"Um, Yeah." I took my hand from his.
"Do.. You not want to be friends..?"
"Um, Yeah, But, not that close." I answered.
"How about this close."He leaned in and kissed me. I didn't kiss back, I broke away as soon as I figured it out.

"No."
"Yes." He leaned in again, I pushed him back.
"We can do even more later." He whispered
I ran away.

Neils POV-
"Jessie! Get back here!" Luke yelled. From the couch, you could see the spot they were standing so, I'd been watching them
She fell on my lap.
"Oh Hi." I said.
"Yo." She said.
"Jessie." Luke walked up."Jessie, It was so right."

"Luke, You need to leave." Jessie had her face in my chest.
"Make me." he growled. "Look, your upsetting her."
"I think that was your fault" Jeremy said.
"What? No, Bitch, That was your fault." Jeremy raised an eyebrow and stared at Luke.
"Leave." Neil said.

"No." He said. That's it, I stood up, gently sat Jessie in Jeremy's lap.
"Get out." I said. He shook his head. I wanted to push him back, but, i had to wait until he touched me, or the asshole finally left.
"Fine! I'll be back." He said. "She's my friend! She'll trust me. We will go far!" He said, I slammed the door behind him. Making sure i locked it.

Jeremy was hugging Jessie.
"He's gone." I said, Sitting down.
"Good." She got off Jeremy's lap, and sat between us.
"So, What was with the fake crying?" I asked.
"Whoa, You were faking?" Jeremy asked.
"Yeah.." She said.
"Let me in the loop next time." He said. I laughed a bit.

"I pretended i was upset to maybe make him regret it.. I don't think he got it." She said.
"How did you hang out with him?" I asked.
"He's changed." She admitted.
