He laced their hands together and kissed the back of her hand "I know I know. I don't trust him though." he sighed hevily and glanced down at her with a half smile "promise to be careful arund him?"

“Duh, I’m not stupid.” She said, matching his half smile with one of her own, “I promise I’ll be careful.”

"good." He leaned down and kissed her "beat his ass for me if he does something even remotely shady."

She laughed lightly, "Won't I get in trouble then?" Scarlett set the bag of chips on the floor and just focused up at him with a small grin.

He shook his head "I did your internship so technically I'm your boss, work wise. Not him. And I'm letting you beat the daylights out of him if he even suggests something innaprpriate. So no, I don't think you'd get in trouble." He laughed lightly and traced her lips with his fingers "plus, if he fires you, you can just come and work with me.”

"Well, alright then." She said, reaching up and tilting his hand to plant a small kiss on the back of it before letting go, "Is he known to be really inappropriate?"

He nodded "yeah, at the worst times possible, too." he smiled softly "he wasn't like that all the time. He used to be the greatest but that was before mom died. Then he tried to protect me from dad. When he saw I didn't want protecting, he left the house. After a few years, we reconnected. He changed but was still good inside. Until he started dating the wrong people."

She nodded in response, "So just be careful around him? I don't think I'd be able to beat him up if I tried though."

"If he puts a single hand on you I swear to God…" he closed his eyes and sighed "sorry, just anxious."

"Don't be, I'll be fine. I know how to handle myself." She replied, scooting around so she could sit up instead of having her head on his leg.

He nodded "believe me I know you can handle yourself." He laughed lightly and kissed her hand again "feisty thing."

She laughed lightly and shrugged, "What can I say, I have an attitude." She leaned against him and smiled.

"I can tell." He muttered softly "wonder what the kids will do…"

"Whatever it is, they're going to miss you like crazy." She replied softly, closing her eyes.

He kissed her head "I'll miss them too. the older ones don't like Theo that much…He's going to have fun fighting with them." He smiled lightly at the thought of what the older kids would do to his brother, whether break the rules or rebell completly against him much like they did to Jasper when he began first working there

She shrugged, opening her eyes to check the time quick and decide if she should get to sleep, "Whatever they do, I'll make sure they don't go too crazy, though I won't stop them either."

"if they do act up, please send me a video." he said with a laugh "tired?" He asked, feeling the weight of the day dragging him down as well

"I'll definitely send you a video," She replied, nodding, "A little, I'll probably get up in a few minutes and head to bed if I don't fall asleep before them."

He hugged her tighter against his chest and nuzzled into her hair "But I'm comfortable…" he muttered sleepily

She smiled and closed her eyes again, "I am too…but I don't think you'll want to be squished up against me on this couch all night, I'm a blanket hog."

He kissed her head and laughed lightly "that's the only thing I want right now, and we can always get two blankets."

"Well then, let me go grab another blanket," She said, getting to her feet before heading to her room. She grabbed her favorite blanket and made her way back to the couch with a small smile.

He settled comfortably on the couch, leaving some space for her to lay down and move a bit and pulled a blanket around him

She laid down on the couch as well, pulling her blanket over herself and snuggling against him while still giving him some room.

He wrapped his around her waist and pulled her close. He propped his head on his arm and lightly stroked her hair

"Night Jassie," She mumbled, her eyes already half closed. She put one of her arms under her head and left the other overtop his arm on her waist.

"Night Scar." He kissed her head a moved his arm to wrapped it around her as well, falling into a deep sleep surrounded by her scent

She drifted off after him, happy for the warmth from him as well as the comfort.
