Summary
Jess is... Jess. There’s not really any other word to describe her. She’s good at everything, fills in all the jagged holes that make Reagan so difficult to be around. Reagan isn’t even surprised that she falls for her in the span of fifteen minutes after the first time they meet.

Summary
All she can think about is Nick. They way he’d smiled at her in the funeral home bathroom, soft and sad but with an affection in his eyes that made her heart melt. The way his hands rested at the small of her back as he helped her unzip the ridiculous Elvis jumpsuit. The way he’d kissed her until she was clinging to him, breathless and weak in the knees.
what if they didn't call it a night?

Summary
Nick gives up. He was never a very touchy-feely kind of guy, so it’s not too hard to minimize casual contact with people. He wears jeans and stops rolling up the sleeves of his shirts and keeps his hands shoved into his pockets whenever he’s in a crowd. He stops shaking hands, and keeps three feet of bar in between him and everyone he meets. He doesn’t miss it.
He doesn’t.
It’s all bullshit anyways.

Summary
“Please, Ruth? It’s me! Aunt Jess,” she tries not to let too much of her frustration come through in her voice as she bounces Ruth in her lap. “No crying with your favorite Aunt Jess!”
The five month old bundle of joy started crying not even ten minutes after her parents left and hasn’t let up no matter what Jess tries, and Jess has tried everything. Feeding, burping, changing, rocking, swaying, singing, you name it and she’s tried it. All with no luck.

Summary
Nick sighs. It had seemed like a good idea at the time. Just him, Jess, and the sea to celebrate the anniversary of paradise Nick and Jess. Now he’ll be stuck on a boat using the all-inclusive bar to drink away the pain of their recent breakup. But hey, they’re Nick and Jess. They’ll make it work. They’re like the king and queen of getting into awkward and uncomfortable situations. What could go wrong?
Cruise AU where the rest of the gang doesn't tag along.

Summary
The kiss meant something to her, it had to. Otherwise she wouldn’t have flown all the way out to Chicago in March for the funeral of a guy she barely knew, or put on a cheesy Elvis costume just to make his ma happy. But then again, she’s Jess.

Summary
“Would ya quit that?” Nick complains, nodding his head towards her rapidly bouncing leg. “You’re shaking the entire damn car.”
“Look, this is a big deal.” Jess glares at him out of the corner of her eye and anxiously runs her hands over the front of her green dress for what must be the hundredth time that afternoon. “This is Ruth’s first birthday party.”
“Right,” Nick says sarcastically and rolls his eyes. He flips on the turn signal and pulls into Schmidt and Cece’s neighborhood. “Cause the first three didn’t count.”

Summary
He can’t believe they’re arguing over this.
Nick doesn’t think of himself as a very needy kind of person. Set him up in a room with a six-pack and ESPN and he’ll be good for hours. He’s not the clingy kind of boyfriend who needs the constant attention of the girl he’s dating to make him feel good about himself. But there’s something about this that really hits home for some reason. It’s absurd. It makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. And yet it’s been digging underneath his skin for weeks now, no matter how many times he tries to write it off.

Summary
“Well, well, well. Look who we have here,” a voice says from over her shoulder, and Jess recognizes the gruff, uncaring tone without even looking behind her.
“Miller,” she spits out, and turns to face him. “What are you doing here?”
“You’re not the only one who goes to this school, Day,” he says sarcastically.
Jess huffs and rolls her eyes. “I’m just surprised you’re not locked up in your dorm room getting high and wasting your tuition dollars.”

Summary
“Jess.” Nick sets his fork down beside his plate and clears his throat nervously. “Can I ask you a big favor?”
Oh boy. “What is it?”
“You’re not gonna like it,” he says cryptically and Jess’ eyebrows rise in surprise.
“This isn’t making me want to say yes, you know.”
