Chapter Sixteen: Should I be worried?
"So you think Max was spooked by a spider that was being controlled by Shadow Spider?", said Jack skeptically.
"Maaaaaaaybe," I say in a sing song way.
"Why?," said Finn, "Why would Max be followed by Shadow Spider?".
"I don't know..." I say slumping back on the sofa in Jacks living room.
"How about we solve this another day and just go to bed, after all it is 1:43 am" said Jem yawning.
"It what o'clock am?" I shouted siting up.
"What the matter scared you'll screw up your sleeping schedule... on a weekend?" Jack said smirking which turned into a yawn.
"Who has a sleeping schedule?" Finn says confused.
"Who sleeps?", said Jem.
We all looked at her concerned and confused.
"What?", Jem said confused looking at us blankly.
"Should I be worried?", Jack said looking at Jem genuinely concerned.
"Yes but not about that!", Jem said followed by a chuckle.
All our concern faded, I caught a glimpse of Jack and Jem smiling at each other. Are they blushing?
"So should we go to sleep?", Finn said with a clasp of his hands as he stood up. "Uhh what are the sleeping arrangements?", he asked nervously shuffling on his feet.
"Oh umm I never thought of that," Jack said as he then went deep in thought, " I have plenty of pillows and blankets we could make a comfy space in the floor and just sleep there?" He says with a shrug.
"Sounds perfect!", Jem says excited.
About 20 mins later the floor had become a massive bed and we all settled in for the night.
"Night Night Super team!!" Jack said before falling asleep.
"Night!", we heard a small quiet voice say, which was Finn.
About an hour later I was still up, thinking I couldn't sleep... I heard Jem shuffle indicating she was still awake as well.
"Can't sleep Ro?" I heard her ask.
"Not a wink", I replied a yawn.
She sat up resting her back on the sofa. I followed and did the same.
"Wanna just talk?", she asked me.
"Sure!", I replied with.
Is was a couple of minutes of silence before I thought of something I wanted to talk to her about.
"Uh Jem...", I said hesitantly not wanted to her embarrass her.
"Yea Ro?", she asked concerned.
"Did I see you blushing at Jack earlier?," I asked with a slight and I mean slight smirk on my face.
"Uhhhh... noooooo, I don't know what your talking about!", she said fidgeting and looking away from me.
"Oooo, do you like him?", I said letting my smirk get bigger and voice slightly louder than a whisper.
"Sssssshhh, do you want to wake him up?", Jem said an embarrassed look on her face.
"Sorry, Jem, but it's nothing to be worried about ya know, I think you'll be cute together", I said still not letting the smirk leaving my face.
"Oh shut up," said looking at her hands in her lap with a sad look on her face.
My smirk drops as I see my friends, best friends face drop to a look of sadness.
"Hey Jem, what's up?, I say putting my hand in her shoulder for comfort.
"I don't know it's just Jack could never like me back", she says never looking up at me, "we're just friends".
"Your kidding me right! Jack had the same look on his face that you did, didn't you see it", I said with a huge smile on my face.
"He didn't", she said with a slight chuckle.
"He totally diiiid", I practically sang to her.
"Ugh whatever!", she said laying back down, "let's get some sleep".
"Fine!", I say also laying down, "he did".
I felt a something hit my back, assuming it was Jem, and giggled and then fell asleep.

What the hell just happened!!
The next morning I was the first to wake up I sat at my kitchen counter with a mug of tea in front of me.
Did I really hear what I though I heard last night I was I dreaming! Does Jemy really like me? Huh I sit there with a sigh as the events of last night run through my head.
"Hey Jack!", said Finn with a yawn as he walked into the kitchen and headed for the cupboard before stopping.
"Is it alright I a make myself some tea?", he asked nervously.
God he's so shy. "Sure go ahead, help yourself to anything, no need to ask", I say with a friendly smile.
"Hey Jack, you alright mate?", Finn asked me will pouring some tea into a mug and stirring.
"Hmm, oh yea I'm fine" I say my gaze still on the half empty mug in front of me.
"You sure? You look like me trying to put a puzzle together," he says with a chuckle as he sits next to me.
"In a way I suppose I am", I say returning his chuckle.
"What's up?", he asks taking a sip of his tea, wincing slightly when he realises it was still to hot to drink.
I chuckle again slightly, "I... huh", I sigh before I finish my sentence, "I overheard a conversation last night, I shouldn't have".
"What do mean?", Finn asks being careful taking another sip of his tea, smiling when it didn't burn him as much.
"Jemy and Ro, couldn't sleep last night and neither could I, they started talking and I was about to join them before they started having a conversation about me", I said taking a sip of my slightly too cold tea.
"They were talking about you?", Finn asked confused.
"Well yea, apparently Jemy was blushing at me last night, and me at her I honestly didn't notice if I was or if she was, and Ro asked her if she liked me..." I say getting up to put my mug in the sink as I drank the last of my tea.
"And?" Does she?", Finn says turning in his chair to face me
I lean on the sink behind me and sigh.
"Yes..." I say leaning my head back.
"Why aren't you happy about that?", he said standing up from his chair and walk over to me, "I honestly thought you liked her back?.
"I do... I l.... I really do," I say moving my head to look at him, "it's just that... what if I misheard the conversation and just heard what I wanted to hear".
"Buuut, what if you heard correctly?, if it were me and I heard R.. someone tell someone they liked me and I liked them back, I would be nervous but I would have to talk to them about it".
"Huh maybe your right Finn.", I say smiling, "thanks".

Slightly longer than usual but I haven't wrote in a while, I'm going to be carrying on writing so I might release another part later on today.
Also Jem and Jack? I honestly had this in mind from the beginning. And uh Finn nearly slipped up.
Comment who you reckon he was about to say... it probably really obvious.
