Dropping the Dresses (2)

All four were waiting by Jian's door as they walked over. The girls noticed how each one had a slightly heavy breath.

"Did you guys run up the stairs or something?" Kira asked and Nick took in a deep breath before saying, "No duh, these two love birds wouldn't wait for the next elevator, and we don't know the floor, so we had to follow them."

Kira laughed asking, "You didn't care to check the address?" He frowned saying, "Jian didn't add that part, she just sent the building's address."

Jian sighed saying, "There's water in the fridge, make yourselves at home, Nicki you wanted to see the dresses right, come." Nicki nodded following behind her as Jian opened the door. John was going to follow behind her when she closed the door in his face.

"Wasn't that a little too harsh?" Nicki asked and Jian sighed saying, "It's because my room's a mess, and he's going to start cleaning it again. Plus, I have these out," she pointed towards the undergarments on her bed. "Aren't they a little too big?" Kira asked as she picked one up.

Jian smiled picking them up explaining, "Those are my moms, I am planning a surprise gift in the form of a custom dress, and I can't take her measurements, so I am borrowing her clothes."

"Wait, you said again, has John been to your place?" Nicki asked and Jian surged saying, "Ya, I told you all he's helping with the dresses, so he slept over during the weekends."

"He slept over," they both said in unison glancing at each other, and Jian nodded saying, "On the couch outside, but then he moved inside my room cause it's too hot outside since it's summer." Nicki frowned asking, "So he slept on the bed?"

Jian shook her head, "Nah, he slept on the floor, I told him to use the bed and I could sleep on the couch, but he said no like immediately and I didn't get it till after, so he slept on the floor."

"So, these are the dresses?" Kira asked as she moved the fabric off the dress form and Jian nodded tossing them towards the fabric box.

"Wow, Jian these are gorgeous," Nicki said as felt the fabric and Jian smiled saying, "Thank you," as she sat down on the bed. The room was still messy but clean enough to let John in, so she got up walking outside.

"Jian," John called out and she held a neutral expression asking, "Do you guys want anything to drink?" Ethan smiled saying, "Johnny's got that covered, how about you guys?" She turned walking towards the kitchen asking, "Nicki, Kira do you two want anything?"

"Let's see what you have," Kira said following behind her and John smiled passing her a cup of tea. "It's ginger tea," he said softly and she took it as Kira opened the drawers.

"Oh, Will they have dad's favorite coffee brand," Kira said taking the bag out and Will smiled replying, "Ya I know, I got myself a cup already." Nicki walk out asking, "Jian, do you have any snacks?"

Jian nodded saying, "There's chips over there, noodles are here, the fruits are in the fridge, and drinks are in the cabinet next to the fridge." Nicki nodded saying, "Kira, make me a cup too." Kira smiled as she got the coffee ready and Jian stepped back the kitchen becoming a little crowed.

John reached out to make sure she didn't fall as he leaned against the counter. He hugged her from behind asking in a small whisper, "Are you still mad?"

Jian sighed saying, "Not mad, just upset, you should know why I told you to slow down," she held the cup with one hand moving the other to tap his arm on her waist. He moved it immediately as she walked out of the kitchen.
