Clearing The Air

The next morning, it was 11am and boy, was Kimmy feeling it. Despite waking up without much of a headache, she didn't feel right, but that wasn't the most immediate problem in her eyes.

Kimmy: Holy... What the... Okay, where the hell am I, and why the hell am I naked?

She then got her bra and panties on before then also putting on her blouse and opening the bedroom door and almost instantly recognising her surroundings, as there he was, sleeping on the sofa. Jake had been up 3 hours earlier but could barely stay awake for long, and so after a little while, he went back to sleep on the sofa in his living room. Kimmy cautiously approached the sleeping Jake, and just looked at him.

Kimmy: What the hell do I do now?

All of a sudden, she ran to the bathroom to throw up as it was coming on quite quickly. After a few minutes of vomiting quite violently, she sensed someone was behind her.

Jake: Better out than in, I always say. We should consider ourselves lucky there's no filming for anything today.

Kimmy: Thank god for that... I might just stay here, next to the toilet for most of today...

Jake: Yeah, probably for the best. You really went all out in terms of drinks last night.

Kimmy: How bad was I?

Jake: Well, let me show you...

He pulled up the video of he and Kimmy making out in the parking lot, as Courtney had sent it to both of them. When it got to Kimmy putting her hand down his pants, that's when it got a bit too much for her.

Kimmy: Yeah, that's more than enough for me.

Jake hit pause and put his phone away as she ran her hands through her hair in regret.

Kimmy: And from there?

Jake: You basically couldn't take your hands off me for the rest of the night, so I had no option other than to bring you to my place. But you still weren't done.

Jake took a deep breath before going on.

Jake: Last night...

Kimmy: ... we had sex. Didn't we? Otherwise how else would I have woken up naked?

Jake: In my defence, I did ask you if you were okay with this considering I was reasonably drunk myself, not as much as you, but you still went for it.

Kimmy: Ohhh god... I'm so sorry. Really, I am.

As she threw up yet again, Jake just gently patted her on the back, pulling her hair into a rough ponytail.

Jake: If it's any consolation, the sex was awesome last night, arguably the best I've ever had.

Kimmy was helped to her feet and with a hand from Jake, she stumbled towards a kitchen stool.

Kimmy: Ugh god, I feel like I've been trampled by horses for 4 hours straight.

Jake: Same here actually. Consider us lucky there's the basic rations for us to survive on - so did you want a coffee?

Kimmy: If it will help make me feel better I'll do anything right now.

Jake made her a coffee while he had a lemon and ginger tea, and almost with the first sip, she began to feel a bit better.

Kimmy: That's so much better already...

Jake took a stool opposite her and the two had a serious talk.

Kimmy: So, what now? About... you know... us? Where do we go from here?

Jake: Truthfully I don't know. I mean, I don't wanna rush into anything too serious that quickly.

Kimmy: Yeah, I agree. I only split with my ex about a month ago, and rushing into all this would be stupid.

Jake: With all that being said, however...

He took another sip of his tea and a deep breath, giving Kimmy a hint of hopefulness in her eyes.

Jake: I do really like you, Kimmy. And I'm not just saying that cos we're both quite hungover either. I think you are really attractive, quite funny and just a perfect human being.

Kimmy could have sworn she felt a tear running down her face as she took a big gulp of coffee and then went on to say what she wanted to about Jake.

Kimmy: I've only really known you for the best part of a day, but it honestly feels like I've known you forever with everything that's happened already. You're just the most kind and inspirational soul I've ever known and... I really do like you too, Jake. I know that sounds a little silly, given I sound like a schoolgirl right now but I really do.

Jake couldn't wipe the smile off his face. Just as the two leaned across the table to share a possible kiss, Kimmy's phone went off, with a message from Courtney.

Courtney: Hey girl, hope you're okay after last night! You really went all out! Anyway, wanna go get breakfast with me and Shayne? Or considering it's almost lunch, brunch? You can even bring your boyfriend if you want!

Kimmy laughed a little and put her head on the table.

Jake: Problem?

Kimmy: Besides Courtney already thinking we're together? Not really, no. She and Shayne just want to get a bite to eat, and asked if you fancied coming too.

Jake: Meh, why not? Could use a bit of good American food to kill off this hangover.

Kimmy: Sounds good - we're meeting her there in an hour so we should get properly dressed.

They finished their drinks and got themselves properly ready, with Jake getting changed, while Kimmy took a shower and put on what clothes she had from last night. Before long, they were ready to go.

Jake: Remind me to stop for some food shopping on the way back - gotta get the fridge stocked!

Kimmy: And also, you might want to think about getting a car too - we can't just Uber everywhere!

Jake: Good idea - fancy helping me choose?

Kimmy: Hey, if you want me there, I'll be there. I'm certainly interested to see what you choose...

The two then headed out and got to the restaurant in almost no time at all. They met up with Courtney and Shayne, and the two immediately were questioned.

Shayne: So, are you two a thing?

Courtney: Yeah, give us the deets!

Jake: Well, we're not exactly a thing...

Kimmy: Yeah, we had a talk earlier about it and what feelings we have towards each other, but no more than that - and that's it.

Shayne: Spoilsports...

Courtney: Yeah, you two would actually be SOOO cute together!

Jake: Like you and Shayne, huh?

The two blondes had a look of embarrassment towards one another before Jake continued.

Jake: Yeah, don't think I haven't seen the potential ships - you two top that list, hands down.

Kimmy: Anyway, can we eat? I'm starving!

The 4 got a booth, and while Kimmy and Courtney went to freshen up a little, the boys had a man's chat.

Shayne: So, what exactly happened last night?

Jake pulled up the video and showed it to Shayne - who's eyes raised a little when Kimmy got handsy.

Shayne: Wow, she's all over you there. But you don't seem to be complaining! How about after that?

Jake: When we got back, it got even more sexual - and we actually hooked up. But for me, that wasn't the most awkward part.

Shayne: Then what was awkward about it?

Jake: I finished inside her...

Shayne's jaw dropped in pure shock.

Shayne: You finished INSIDE her?

Jake: Yeah, I wanted to pull out and not take a chance but with her legs around my waist, it was hard to actually do that. And let's not forget, I was quite drunk too so maybe my drunken self told me not to...

Shayne just patted him on the back as Jake looked quite conflicted.

Shayne: Well, if I were you, I'd tell her if she doesn't know already. Cos if you don't, she'll be wondering why she's got a baby growing inside her belly in 9 months time.

Jake: Yeah, I'll do that, she deserves to know if she doesn't already.

Shayne: You feel like you could be a dad?

Jake: I don't know - can't say I remember much about my own dad so I'd have next to no experience. But I think I would be an awesome dad.

Shayne: I like the way you think.

The drinks then arrived, with the boys toasting to their future.

Meanwhile, in the women's bathroom...

As Kimmy was applying some foundation, Courtney was fumbling around looking for her perfume, whilst also curious about Kimmy's antics last night.

Courtney: So, how was last night with Jake?

Kimmy: To be honest, I don't really remember much after when we got to Jake's - all I do know is I felt amazing afterwards, but I just can't put my finger on why I felt so good...

Courtney: Well, do you know if he finished inside you or not?

Kimmy: I don't think he--- Oh wait...

Courtney: He didn't. Did he?

Kimmy: I don't actually know... Oh crap, what if he did?

Courtney: Give it a couple of weeks, see how you feel, but in the meantime, Jake needs to know about it.

Kimmy: Yeah, you're right - I'll talk to him tonight and see what he says.

Courtney: Also, what will you do? You know... if you actually turn out to be...

Kimmy: Well, I guess some decisions would need to be made, especially regarding any future videos. And then there's whether I'm ready to be a mum...

Courtney: Do you feel like you're ready?

Kimmy: Again, it's something I'd probably have to ask Jake about. But honestly, I'd say... maybe. Part of me does and part of me doesn't.

After the girls got back to the table, the group had a large and filling brunch, with a few jokes involved mainly by Shayne before splitting up, with Kimmy sticking with Jake as they went down to the nearest car dealership.

Kimmy: Hey, do you mind if I stay around your place tonight after we're done doing what you need to do? Because I actually want to have a chat about what happened last night. And... there's something else too.

Jake: Sure, no worries. I actually was thinking the same thing.

After a short walk, they arrived at the dealership, and straight away, Jake saw a car he liked, a brand new Mercedes E-Class Cabriolet in blue, something which even caught Kimmy's eye.

Jake: Price is good, looks amazing, got a decent engine so will go pretty quick too. What do you think, Kim?

Kimmy: Just amazing, I love the colour in particular, so I say go for it!

As Jake then sorted out the paperwork, Kimmy was distracted by a mum and dad walking by with their twin baby boys, and Kimmy couldn't help but think about that one day pretty soon, she and Jake might be in that position. She snapped out of it just as Jake emerged with the documents and keys for the car.

Jake: Okay, car's all paid for - let's head to the store for food!

As Kimmy got in, she was in awe of the cream leather interior and the shining dials, as well as the sat nav. When Jake started the engine, and revved it a little, she bit her lip and even got a little turned on when he pressed the button to bring the roof and windows down, rocking his hat and sunglasses while having some of his favourite song, Human by The Killers. As he was singing along, Kimmy secretly filmed him while they were at a red light, and when he noticed, he just laughed as she ended the video, laughing as she posted it on her Instagram with the caption:

"voice of an angel"

When Jake pulled up at the store, he looked at the video in embarrassment, and Kimmy would not stop pestering him about his singing voice throughout the store while he looked around for stuff he would like. But on the way out, while Jake went to the checkouts, Kimmy stopped in the baby aisle, and had a look around. Nappies, bottles, little blankets, and it was really sinking in that in a few months, she might need them. Before long, Jake came back to find her and snapped her out of it.

Jake: Kim? You okay?

Kimmy: Yeah, sorry, blacked out for a second...

Jake: In the baby section?

Kimmy: Er... yeah?

Jake: You trying to tell me something? I mean, you've been acting a little strange since brunch...

Kimmy: Best talk about it when we get back - can we stop off at my place on the way? Could really use a change of clothes...

Jake: Yeah sure thing.

When Kimmy got dropped off at her house, she got changed into a black shirt and some booty shorts, and also packed a bag with a change of clothes and even a special white lingerie set she thought she could tease Jake with, and then quickly rushed back to the car where Jake was still waiting.

Jake: You ready?

Kimmy: Yeah, good to go!

After another short drive to his house, they got the shopping unpacked and Jake made steak for dinner before sitting down on the sofa, next to each other with a glass of wine for each of them.

Jake: So... about last night...

Kimmy: Look, I honestly don't know what I was thinking. I know you were drunk and all... but I was definitely worse off.

Jake: No denying that - but you also said something happened last night.

Kimmy: Yeah it kinda did...

They spoke at the same time.

Jake: You made me finish inside you.

Kimmy: I think you finished inside me. Wait, what?

Jake: From what I remember, you wrapped your legs around my waist and left me nowhere to go.

Kimmy: So, you already knew?

Jake: Yeah, cos I haven't woken up like I had today in a long time.

Kimmy: For me, it was the after sex glow I felt, especially at brunch. And you're okay with possibly becoming a dad?

Jake: I'll admit I did need a little pep talk from Shayne but I think so. How about you maybe being a mum?

Kimmy: Same here with Courtney, she gave me some good advice. Sooo... what now then?

Jake pondered on it for a moment before coming up with an answer.

Jake: Well, I don't really know - I guess we act like those couples who pretend to be  together but aren't really together - especially around the office and stuff...

Kimmy: Given the chance though, would you ever want to try it? Like, you know... me and you... together?

Jake: I mean, I'd jump at the chance. But like I said, best not rush things. Ask me again in a month's time - and if we decide to go for it by then, we go for it.

Kimmy: Agreed. That gives us more than enough time to think about the situation we're in - not to mention me perhaps becoming pregnant and all...

They then raised their wine glasses and had a little toast.

Jake: To what the future holds.

Kimmy: To the future.
