When we entered the kitchen, Mike was just beinging a platter of burgers from the. The others were spread across the kitchen, prepping burger toppings and bring them to the table. Jamie was off to one side talking with Patrick. Whatever Patrick had said made Patrick smile and when Jamie spotted me, he came over to me. Jake squeered my hand giving me a quick kiss before going to help bring the rest of the food over to the table, Jamie looked a little nervous taking several seconds before he spoke. "I just wanted to make sure you were ok and to apologize for sedating you yesterday." He said. I reached out resting my hand on his enormous bicep, giving it a gentle spareze, "Im doing much better," I assured him. And dont think for a second I'm mad about you giving me that shut. You did what Patrick told you to do, and for the record, I'm not upset with him either. Thank you for helping take care of me." lanie blushed ch a deep red that I actually gigded. At that moment. Patrick came over and slapped lamie on the shoulder

"I told you Emmy wasn't one to hold grudges. Go grab a burger you and Sean are both eating with us tonight, I insist" Jamie grunted, giving me a final once-over like he didn't believe that I was okay. Then, nodding his head, he went to sit at the table. Patrick tacked me under his arm, gave me a squeeze, and then led me over to the table and pulled out my chair like the perfect gentleman. Grinning at him, I kissed him and sat down between lake and Josh. Everything looked and smelled amazing, the twins loading my plate with a little bit of everything. When Jake passed my plate to me. I had to laugh because my burger was so tall I couldn't even pick it up, let alone get my mouth around it.

I turned a little so I faced him, tugging on his hand so he would look at me. lake, honey, what's going on?" I asked gently, giving him a reassuring smile. "What you went through really scared me," he admitted, I was so afraid that we were going to lose you. I love you so much, Emmy. I was just afraid, and now I just want to be close to you. I know it sounds stupid, but I feel like if I stay close to you, you will be okay, and I won't lose you." He said the last so quietly that I had to strain to hear him.

When Josh finally picked a movie, Jake sat up straight, adjusting me so I was comfortably sitting across his and Patrick's laps. It was the perfect relaxing night that we all needed.
