Anatome (Jaime Preciado/Pierce The Veil)

Chapter 48

Alexis's POV

~1 day later

We all woke up in very uncomfortable positions after we fell asleep through The Conjuring. Jaime and I had somehow managed to tangle our legs together when we were sleeping and I was leaning on Jaime's chest. I started flicking his ear in an attempt to wake him up. Jaime started stirring and groaned, stretching his back and trying to move.

"Morning dork." He said as he opened his brown eyes and smiled at me.

"Morning." I whispered, smiling back.

"How did we end up like this?" Jaime groaned as we started untangling ourselves.

"I have no idea but you know I wriggle a lot when I sleep." I said, moving one of the covers Jaime draped over us last night and started getting up quietly. I checked my phone and saw that it was 7:30am.

"Oh god, it's too early to be up." Jaime whined and drew back the curtains. Sun light poured into the room, making me hiss and cover my eyes with my hands.

"Did you just hiss at the sunlight?" Jaime asked me in shock.

"Maybe. After all, I'm half vampire. Hiss." I said, making a fool of myself.

"Whatever you say, whatever you say... dork." *gasp*

"You did not just call me a dork." I threatened Jaime, squinting my eyes at him and holding my stare.

"Crap. Run!" Jaime ran into the kitchen, I was following close behind. When I ran in, I was pushed to the side and I saw Jaime run out again. I got off the ground and exited the kitchen, examining the quiet living room.

"Oh, Jaime." I called, sounding nice. I heard a whistle and saw that the patio door was slightly open and wind was getting through the gap.

"Found you." I muttered to myself. I tip toed to the patio door and quietly slid it open. I poked my head outside and looked around. I heard a giggle sound from the other end of the garden and I saw a dark shadow in the water. I looked in the direction I saw the shadow and saw a human like shadow in the water. My assumption was is that Jaime snuck in the pool.

"Oh damn, I can't find Jaime. I wonder where he is!" I called loudly. I slammed the patio door shut and mimed walking away before hiding behind one of the trash bins in the back garden. After a few seconds, I saw the pool ladder rattle and Jaime's head poked over the surface. He looked around cautiously before slowly climbing up the ladder. I took my phone out my pocket and slipped it behind the bin. When Jaime had turned his back, I tip toed behind him and stood for a couple of seconds. Deciding not to wait any longer, I let out a loud roar and jumped onto Jaime's back, causing him to get startled and tilt forward: into the pool. I clung on to his back, bracing myself as we hit the water. I stayed underwater for a few seconds before resurfacing and I started spitting up water.

"You scared the shit out of me!" Jaime exclaimed as he wiped water away from his face.

"You called me a dork. That was my revenge." I said, crossing my arms and continuing to kick in the water seeing as I fell in the deep end.

"I always call you dork." Jaime said, miming my actions. We kept our stares on each other before I gave in and blinked.

"Ha! Yes! I win! You lose! Now you get a big bruise!" Jaime exclaimed, swimming over to me and punched my arm.

"Ow!" I exclaimed, rubbing my arm.

"That's fair, that's fair, now I get to tug your hair." I said and tugged his hair.

"Owee!" Jaime whined, rubbing his head.

"We're both injured, we're both equal." I said before kissing his head.

"Yeah, true." Jaimee said before wrapping his arms around me and kissing me.

"Jaime, I didn't hurt my lip." I said. Jaime leaned forward and lightly bit my lip.

"It's hurt now, now I have to kiss it better." He said smugly.

"Alright smart ass." I said, giving in to his child like charm and kissed him.

"Ew! PDA! You're in the pool!" I heard Jolie shout. We pull away and see Jolie covering Kenadee's eyes with her right hand and her own with her left hand.

"It's not that bad, it's ony a kiss." I said, putting my hands on Jaime's shoulders and wrapping my legs around his waist, losing the energy to keep kicking.

"Lazy." Jaime muttered.

"Oh you know me so well." I said before kissing his cheek.

"But Alexis, I thought you were gay. Why are you kissing a guy?" Jolie said, smirking at me. I heard Jaime hold back a laugh and I glared between the two of them.

"No, not funny. Shut up." I whined as my attempt of repressing yesterday's escalator incident failed and the memory flooded my head again.

"I'm sorry but it was funny!" Jaime exclaimed and he and Jolie started laughing again.

"Ha ha ha. I'm going for a shower." I muttered and detached myself from Jaime before swimming to the shallow end and pulling myself onto the pool ledge.

"Can I choose your clothes?" Kenadee asked me.

"Of course you can. Not the underwear but everything else is fine." I said, smiling at my god daughter. I offered my hand to Kenadee and we skipped in the house, leaving Jaime and Jolie laughing in the back garden. As you do.

"Ugh, why are you people up so early?!" Oh look, Mike's awake. Kenadee giggled at Mike's tone and we went upstairs. We entered my room and Kenadee started going through my drawers whilst I pulled out my underwear and a towel.

"Here you go!" I turned and saw that Kenadee had chosen dark denim jeans, navy high tops, a Disney top, checked shirt and a couple of accessories.

"You know me so well, hun." I said, picking her up and twirling her around before kissing her cheek. Kenadee giggled the entire time and kept giggling as I set her down and she ran out the room. I laughed softly as I watched her run out. It warmed my heart looking after her and I had the feeling that my heart would melt when Shyloh was her age.

"We have a signing at twelve today." Jaime said as he entered our room.

"We have plenty of time. When the Grump, Thea, Beth, Vic, Tony and Erin wake up, I can cook us all breakfast and we can kill a bit of time before you guys go." I said.

"Not you, we." Jaime said as he pulled out a pair of black skinnies and a key street t-shirt.

"Well, looks like my plans for toda have been set." I said in fake shock as I gathered my clothes and exited the room. I dumped my clothes in the bathroom and turned on the shower, placing my hand under the running water to check the temperature.

"Lex?" I heard Jolie call.

"Bathroom!" I called back. I heard footsteps on the stairs and Jolie entered the bathroom a couple of seconds later.

"Kenadee and I are going to head off. We'll see you tonight?"

"Sure, we're all going to a signing today. I'm not sure where but I can text you the details and you can drop in if you like?"

"If we're not busy, yeah. Bye, love."

"Caio." I hugged Jolie and she hugged back for a few seconds before pulling back and waving. I waved back and locked the door after Jolie left.

~15 minutes later

After showering, I changed into the outfit Kenadee had picked me and I left the bathroom, wrapping a towel around my head to conceal the mess that is my hair. I walked downstairs and walked into the kitchen, pulling one of the over head cupboard doors open and getting myself a glass. I turned on the tap and let it run for a few seconds before filling the glass.

"Alexis? Do you have a spare bedroom I can change in?" I turned and saw Beth standing in the doorway.

"Sure, first one on the right? Thea can use it too after you've changed. There's also a spare bathroom that you can use if you need a shower." I offered.

"We both showered last night so we should be fine." Beth smiled at me before leaving. I picked up my glass of water and headed upstairs to my room. I opened the door and closed it, turning and saw Jaime leaning over the bed in one of the most awkward positions ever.

"Erm... Jaime?" I questioned. He jumped up and turned, slightly shuffing to the right, letting me see that Shyloh was lying on the bed.

"She woke up a few minutes ago and I was playing peek a boo with her." Jaime said.

"Aww, how adorable!" I said, moving towards Shyloh and scooping her up.

"How's my little bean?" I asked Shyloh in a baby voice, getting a gurgle in response.

"That voice scares me." Jaime said as he watched the two of us interact.

"But it's cute, isn't it?" I used the same voice, talking to Shyloh once again.

"Stop."

"No." I heard Jaime sigh and I heard a thud then a groan. I looked beside me and saw Jaime on the ground, groaning and clutching his head.

"What did you do now?" I questioned.

"I tripped and hit my head off the bedside drawer." Jaime groaned and closed his eyes, wincing as he touched the front of his forehead.

"You're a complete idiot." I said, laughing as Jaime got up and whined.

"Jaime, shush. You're worse than the baby." I said. Jaime whined further and collapsed onto the bed, moving his arm upwards and grabbing his pillow, manouvering it and placing it under his head. He grabbed out towards me and I placed Shyloh in his arms. A small smile came on his face and he kept his eyes closed as he held Shyloh close to his chest. Shyloh started settling down and fell asleep in Jaime's arms after a few minutes.

"Aww, that's so sweet." I turned and saw Erin, Beth and Thea standing in the doorway. I laughed and nodded my head, allowing them to come in.

"You have got to take a picture, showering everyone with cuteness overload." Thea said as we all watched Jaime and Shyloh.

"On it." I said as I retrieved my camera that was on my chest of drawers and turned it on. After adjusting it, I took a few pictures and the four of us started awwing for ten minutes over how cute they both looked. Erin started uploading the pictures onto instagram whilst I got my hairdryer. We left the room and went into the room that Beth and Thea were using to change in. We all gossiped and talked about anything that we could think of whilst I dried my hair. After twenty minutes, I turned off the hairdryer and brushed my fingers through my hair.

"You're lucky you have naturally straight hair, mine is naturally frizzy. It sucks." Erin pouted.

"Your hair's lovely now hush." Thea said, shutting Erin up.

"I agree." Beth said.

"What's the time?" I asked no-one in particular.

"Almost 8:30." Thea said, checking her watch. Out of the four of us, I think Thea was the only one that had a watch. It showed how much we relied on technology now.

"Breakfast?" I asked the girls. They nodded and we headed downstairs. We walked into the living room and I started getting out pans.

"Are pancakes alright?" I asked the girls. They all nodded in agreement whilst Erin went through the fridge and Beth & Thea looked through the cupboards, gathering the necessary ingredients.

"Are Vic, Mike and Tony awake?" I asked Beth.

"Tony woke up when Erin did, Mike fell asleep again and Vic's still been sleeping." Beth replied.

"You don't mind if I give my brothers a rude awakening, do you?" I asked Beth and Thea as I lifted a sauce pan in my left hand and a wooden spoon in my right hand.

"No, go ahead." Thea shrugged.

"I'm going to say that they deserve and do what you want." Beth said.

"Alright, watch Erin. She isn't to be trusted in the kitchen." I said, pointing at Erin.

"Hey!" Erin pouted. I grinned at her before walking out the kitchen. I entered the living room and saw that Vic and Mike had now curled up against each other, snuggling and softly snoring.

"Oh, sweet blackmail." I chuclked to myself as I pulled out my phone and snapped a few pictures. I put my phone away and braced myself for the noise. I started hitting the wooden spoon off the pn, causing Mike to jerk up quickly, head butting Vic in the progress.

"Oh sweet Jesus, my ears!" Mike exclaimed as he held his hands over his ears.

"Alexis Fuentes." Vic grumbled as he groaned and held his head. After the initial shock, Mike started holding his head as well and started complaining. I'm now hoping Tony is the more responsible one out of the four guys for the signing today, three quarters of the band now have minor head injuries.

"Morning boys!" I chirped.

"Why? Just why?" Mike groaned as he threw his head back on the couch again and groaned.

"Why not?" I replied glumly.

"Ugh." MIke moaned before getting up and walking out.

"Love you!" I yelled only to be respensed by Mike flipping me off. Thanks Mike.

"I smell pancakes!" I heard Tony call and all I saw was the flash of a body dart through to the kitchen.

"Tony, out!" I heard Erin yell and a clatter before Tony came out holding his hand, looking sad.

"She hit my hand with a spatula." He said.

"Why does that not surprise me?" I said.

"I told you not to near the food and you ignored me!" I heard Erin yell from the kitchen, which caused me to laugh.

"I thought you were joking!" Tony shouted back.

"When do I ever joke?" Erin sarcastically replied. I rolled my eyes at them and went upstairs to Shyloh's room. I picked her up and held her close to me as I carried her out the room, exiting quietly to not wake Oscar. I walked out the room and as I approached the stairs, I saw Jaime walking down the stairs with his phone in one hand and held a pizza slice in the other hand. Where he got that from, I will never know. He wasn't paying attention to anything, playing games on his phone.

"You're gonna fall." I said, standing at the top of the stairs, watching Jaime.

"I'm not." He muttered.

"Whatever." I said and continued to watch him. Just as I predicted, the doofus missed a step and slid, letting his phone fall from his hand and held on to the pizza slice.

"Noooo!" He wailed as he clutched the pizza slice.

"Jaime, what the hell?" I questioned.

"My phone!" He exclaimed as he picked it up, showing me that the screen had cracked.

"Why the HELL did you let your phone drop instead of the pizza slice?" I questioned.

"It's food... I love food..." That man is unbelievable.

"I can't believe you. I hope our daughter doesn't do that in the future." I joked.

"Hey! Our daughter wil take after the most amazing man on this planet: me!" He shrilled, attempting a falsetto voice.

"Ha! In your dreams." I replied and pecked his lips before walking downstairs, watching where I was going unlike Jaime.

"I heard someone cry, who was it?" Erin asked as I entered the kitchen.

"Jaime dropped his phine when he tripped and held pizza close to him. I don't even know where he got the pizza from." I said as Erin started serving up the food. She shouted that food was ready and the guys stormed into the kitchen, grabbing the plates before running out. Erin and I rolled our eyes at each othe before getting what was left and walked out the kitchen. Seeing as it was a pretty nice day, we ate outside.

I put Shyloh in her baby carrier and sat down at the spare seat, the girls and I watching as the guys ate like animals.

"Seriously, how can you be so thin?!" Beth exclaimed as Mike scoffed his food.

"What?" He muffled, staring at Beth with food slowly falling out his mouth. Tony heard Oscar cry and went into the house, emerging a couple of minutes later with his son. Tony held Oscar in his arms and slowly rocked him whilst Erin hand fed Tony.

"You're a stick Mike." Beth said.

"But I'm your stick." Mike smirked.

"That sounded a little weird." Vic stated, looking at Mike strangely.

"Your face is weird." I said. Wow, nice comeback, Alexis.

"You're a girl, you're weird." Mike retorted.

"Mike, she outdone you on that one. Let it go, save it for the rap battles." Jaime said, leaning across the table and patted Mike's shoulder. I smirked, being pleased with myself as I got Shyloh out her carrier, who had started being fussy. Jaime went in the house and re-emerged a few minutes later with two bibs and two milk bottles. He gave one of each item to Tony and I and we started feeding the kids.

"Does it feel different having a kid?" Thea asked.

"What do you mean?" I replied.

"Does it feel as if your life's changed for the better?"

"It definitely has, I mean, your child is something you created and it feels absolutely amazing." Thea nodded and we contiued talking and eating.

"Right, we've got about an hour left?" Vic said, checking his watch.

"Shall we start getting ready?" Jaime suggested. We all agreed and everyone else left, going to their houses, leaving Jaime, myself and Shyloh in the house.

"How long's the signing?" I asked Jaime as we went upstairs.

"All day, I think. It's in a popular area and it's high demand." He replied s he started pulling out his clothes from the drawers. I changed Shyloh into her outfit whilst Jaime got changed then he started playing peek a boo whilst I put on my jeans, a black tank top and put on a denim jacket.

"You look as beautiful as always." Jaime said as he kissed me.

"Thank you." I said as I pulled back after a few seconds. We heard Shyloh gurgle and Jaime chuckled, bouncing her in his arms.

"I think she doesn't like it when we kiss." He chuckled as I packed Shyloh's baby bag.

"She'll think we harvest cooties or something like that when she's older." I replied. After packing Shyloh's baby bag, Jaime and I retrieved other things we needed and headed downstairs.

"How are we getting there?" I asked.

"We're all taking separate cars, getting out close to Target then walk in through the back entrance seeing as it may be dangerous out the front." Jaime replied. I locked up the house whilst Jaime out Shyloh in her car seat. He got in the drivers side and turned on the engine as I done up my seat belt.

"Ready?" He asked.

"Definitely." Jaime shifted the gearstick and reversed out the driveway and we started our short journey to Target, unaware of what was going to happen next.
