"You allright?" He said warmly.

"Yeah, I'll be fine." She said. Just then her eyes started to tear up.

Nick noticed this and quickly placed his index finger underneath her chin so that he could look into her eyes. What he saw in her eyes was...well, it was heaven. Finally, he knew what it was. He knew what he felt when he looked at her. He saw Heaven In her Eyes.

"What's wrong babe? What is it?" He said.

Jessica looked at Nick. She too felt what Nick felt. Whenever she searched his eyes, she always found an answer to her problems. His eyes were like an escape for her.

"Nick...I realised how much I love you. You could have been badly hurt, but instead it was me. But, you stayed by my side through it all. I've never felt so wanted, or so needed. But, I need you so much Nick. I love you so much." She said as she sofly caressed his cheek.

Nick looked at her and gave a heart melting smile.

"Oh god Jess.....I need you to. So much. When I saw you laying in that music store, god....I thought my world was going to end. But, when you looked at me, somehow I knew everything was going to be alright. I love you too Jess." He said.

Finally, the tears that were building up in her eyes, had let lose. she couldn't hold them in any longer.

"Why are you crying kiddo?" He said sofltly. His face was so close to her's that their forheads were touching, and she could feel his warm breath.

"They are happy tears Nick...I'm just so happy. I'm happy that girl cannot interfier with our relationship anymore, I am happy that I am out of the hospital, I am happy that i am alive, I am happy that I am here with you right now, and I am happy because for the first time in my life, I am in love." she said.

That was all Nick needed to hear. He quickly cut her off by pressing his lips to hers. That was one of the many things she loved about Nick. The way he expressed his affection, and his love was by kissing.

"Are you tired?" Nick said.

"Yeah, I am really tired." Jess said.

"Me too, let's nap together." He said smiling.

"Sounds good to me." She said.

Nick propped himself against the headboard of the bed, and Jessica layed with her head nustled into his chest. His arm was protectivly placed around her shoulder, and his other arm was slung across her waist. Jessica's arms were were positioned right on his chest. **********************************************************************

"Hey you guys. Where is Nick?" A.J. said.

They all looked around and realised that Nick never came back down from Jessica's room.

"I don't know." Said Brian.

"Let's go find him." said Aaron.

So the whole party went up to Jessica's room. The all stopped and smiled at the scene that was set in front of them. Mr. and Mrs. Carter smiled at the expression that was plastered on Nick's face in his sleep. Aaron made a disgusted face.

"Yuck!! Mom, why is Nick holding a girl? And why does he have that dumb smile on his face?" Aaron said.

All of them silently giggled not wanting to wake up Nick and Jess.

"Because Aaron, your big brother Nick is in love." Mrs. Carter said.
