\\You kidnapped me to protect me?// - Private

Jake shook his head and got up slowly. "Just need to use the bathroom is all. I can handle that." he grunted as he slowly made his way to the bathroom. He closed the door, doing his business but taking longer than usual since he was still a bit sore.

When he came back, Charisma had taken over his spot in his bed and was dozing again.

Jake chuckled as he saw her sleeping, this time in his spot. He leaned over carefully, grunting but kissing her head. "Sweet dreams." he whispered as he draped his covers over her and made his way to the kitchen to make himself something to eat. At least without disturbing her.

Risma slept for at least an hour more. Getting up with her hair a mess and her shirt riding up, she made her way out to the main room. She saw him washing his dishes and smiled, going to stand behind him and wrapped her arms around his waist loosely so not to hurt him. she kissed the back of his shoulder then rested her head on the back of his neck.

Jake tensed up a bit but smiled. "Morning." he said gently as he turned around and kissed her head. "Sleep good?" he asked as he hugged her back. Obviously his was a more gentle hug since his pain killers were starting to wear off. "Hungry?"

she smiled, leaning her head on his shoulder. "I'm starving. Let's get my dad and uncle and we can go out. Do you feel up to that?"

Jake chuckled, nodding. "Ok, so long as I don't have to move around too much. You know why." he said, sighing. "Go get dressed, it won't take me long." he said, letting go.

she hung onto him for a little while longer before kissing his shoulder and letting go. "Are you excited for me to move in?" she asked, going to the bed room.

Jake looked at Charisma and smiled. "You're considering it now?" he asked, excited and walking past her as he was going to get a nice casual shirt and jeans.

"what do you mean considering? I thought it was set." she said softly.

"You know what I mean. So, when will you? Starting anyway." Jake said as he put on a black short sleeve shirt with open collar and jeans with sandals.

Charisma put on whatever clothes she had there and turned to him. "I guess we could today. It's your day off and I don't have a job anymore..." she said. "If you're up to it that is."

"You'll get another job soon, don't worry. And uh, we can do that after hanging out with your dad and uncle, ok?" Jake said, smiling. He was feeling better now, since Dustin left. No more problems.

She nodded. "Let me call daddy, see if he's free." she said, sitting on the bed with her phone. "where do you want to go, babe?" she asked Jake.

Jake stretched slowly, sighing as he sat beside her and shrugged. "Anywhere, we could just hang out at that cafe near the beach." he smiled.

She nodded, calling her dad, laying down on the pillows, waiting for him to pick up.

Craig picked up, yawning. He stayed up watching a football game pretty much, just to kink out his nerves about his daughter going back to Jake's. "Hm?" was his reply.

She chuckled. "Hi Daddy." she said cheerfully.

Craig smiled, happy to hear his daughter wasn't in a bad mood, or depressed for that matter. "Hi, sweetheart. Why call so early?"

"Jake and I were wondering if you wanted to go out." she said, rubbing Jake's back. She was laying down and he was sitting up. She felt rather clingly with him right now.

Craig yawned, shrugging. "Well, I guess it could be fun. But isn't Jake sort of still hurting?" he asked, wondering why she suddenly wanted to go out when her own man wasn't even in the best of states.

"He says he's up to it." she said softly, slowly sitting up again. "You know I wouldn't go if he wasn't okay with this."

Craig nodded, rubbing his eyes. "Ok then, where will we be going?" he asked, knowing she'd probably want Howard in too.

"That one Cafe by the beach. The one that mommy liked..." she said.

"Oh...well, that's fine. What time?" Craig asked. He still had a bit of a problem just even walking by that cafe. But, heck, it has been years.
