April is in love with her best friend but writes down all of her feelings in her diary, instead of confessing to said nosy best friend.
Jackson knew that he shouldn’t have been doing this. He knew that if his best friend caught him she would probably, no she would definitely kill him on sight if she decided to walk into her bedroom at this very moment in time.

New Years Eve on the other side of town. Mercy West AU.
April Kepner and Reed Adamson walked into their apartment after finishing a long shift at Mercy West Medical Centre. The pair were surgical residents at the hospital.
It was New Year’s Eve which just like any of the other major holidays made April feel all warm and fuzzy inside. However, since starting her medical internship it also made her realise that people get into some ridiculous situations at this time of year. They were usually fuelled by regrets and poor decision making multiplied by alcohol.
She had spent most of her day in the ER. It was gruelling but she never stopped. It was days like this that reminded her why she became a doctor.
All April wanted to do now though was curl up in bed and sleep for a good 10 hours or possibly until the next winter season rolled around.
Reed, on the other hand, had more exciting plans.

Sleepless nights.
April sighed tiredly and shifted in her sleep to get into a better and finally more comfortable position in the huge bed. Jackson had adjusted and then readjusted the numerous bed pillows before they went to bed but it had taken her awhile to find a good sleeping position.
Today had been the first day that she was at home with Harriet all alone. They had spent the whole day together, well at least when Harriet was awake. Their daughter was a fan of napping. Which meant that she would probably wake up sometime soon.
And just as the thought crossed her mind a small wailing noise broke out over the peaceful silence.

This is part ✌🏾 of this story. Requested by @astoldbyacertifiedunicorn (thanks for all of your lovely comments btw)
Living in Seattle had forced Jackson to get used to the occasional monsoon. He adjusted his hoodie so that it covered his closely shaved head and took larger strides so he would make it to the hospital entrance quicker, in a hopefully less drenched state.
It was quite early in the morning but he was used to it by now. If residency had taught him anything it was that you always had to be ready and sometimes even then that still wouldn’t be enough.
He pressed the button for the elevator and waited, quickly entering when it came down.
“Hold the elevator, please!”
At the last moment, Jackson put his hand out to stop the metal doors from closing, allowing whoever it was to slip through.
“Thanks” he looks down and sees that the person is April and he’s both pleased and nervous at the same time.

Prompt: #3 Person A and C are roommates and live together. Person A and B (partners) did the do last night, and at breakfast the next morning, C randomly says “You guys have loud sex.” A and B’s reaction is up to the writer.
During her time growing up, April was never the one who snuck out. Hanging out with the popular kids and attending parties that went on into the early hours were not her thing. Granted as a teenager April wasn’t beloved enough to ever be invited to such things with the in-crowd but it was also something that didn’t coincide with her personality.
Fast forward thirteen years later and April was probably too old to be sneaking out. She was a little less awkward, an adult, and an almost a board certified surgeon. But if Alex had caught her tip-toeing into Jackson’s room she would have no idea how to explain how all of this started.

Japril as flirty neighbours
Both at work and in life April Kepner operated on a schedule. It was almost guaranteed that you would find her at church on Sunday’s or treating patients most days. And while most would consider this a boring life; she liked it. It was comfortable, well it was until a certain someone moved in across the hall and made her life a little less predictable.
April’s daily routine was disrupted by a loud knocking at her door. The sound was distracting enough for her to drop her breakfast into the sink, in which she had placed a chicken to defrost, and because she didn’t quite fancy her breakfast with a side of salmonella, she slid another slice of bread into the toaster with a groan and left the kitchen to find out who was asking for her so early.
“One second,” April calls when the knocking doesn’t stop. She hurries her pace and across the hardwood floors in her effort to reach the front door.
Jackson, her neighbour, stands across from her with a package in his hands and a sheepish smile on his face.
“Hey,” April greets him with a warm smile once the surprise wears off.
“Hi,” Jackson responds mirroring her expression though he was on the sweaty side. April gawks at him for a second, with the way his t-shirt hangs on his broad muscular frame, before remembering that he came here for something and whatever it was probably had nothing to do with staring. He must have gone for a run before coming to her door.
“I got a package that was supposed to be for you,” Jackson supplies and hold up a parcel in his hands.
“Oh, it’s Mark and Lexie’s gift,” April squeals almost as if the present is for her causing Jackson to laugh.

This is part two of this story. I wasn’t going to write a follow-up but shout out to @averysanatomy and @astoldbyacertifiedunicorn who bother me all the time lol. And Mel and I were talking about how April and Lexie should have been friends so I started writing and this came out.
Jackson nods in satisfaction to himself when April turns over the card and pulls her lip into a half smile. The two of them were currently in her office on a break.
Since their decision to become study buddies for the American Board of Surgery certifying exam Jackson had been reacquainted with many of April Kepner’s small tells. He remembered a few of them from when they were studying for their intern exams back at Mercy West.
He and April along with their best friends Charles and Reed had spent the hours that they weren’t in surgery reviewing for the exam. When April had been the one posing them questions he could tell when the answer was correct or incorrect by her body language.
The way she’d twirl her pencil in the moments in between breaks, or when she would tie her her up so he could see the smooth expanse of skin on her neck and when April would bite her lip to stop smiling it usually meant that he was right.
He may be fairly distracted.

Part 4 of this story requested @astoldbyacertifiedunicorn. Read part two and part three by clicking on the links.
Jackson had never liked getting up early, even when he was a child and the prospect of early morning cartoons could not get him out of bed. He liked to sleep in. However, this morning was different, he was willingly waking up before his alarm clock because he was sharing his bed with the most amazing woman.
April was laying beside him, her hands rested on the pillow and the covers were pulled up to her chest. He moved closer to her and pushed her hair out of the way so he could look at her face. She was beautiful.
He couldn’t believe what had happened between them last night. He would have never had imagined that they would be so good together.

Set after Grey’s episode 8x10. Mostly everything is the same except Japril is a thing.
39 hours.
That’s how long Jackson had been on his feet, give or take, but he never felt more awake. He had managed to take breaks in between but tonight has been hectic. Over the years, Jackson had gotten used to the gruelling shifts but this one would stand out amongst the rest for a while.
He had messed up big time and almost killed a woman. He was the surgical resident that had scrubbed in on Laura Lewis’ pedicle screw surgery. He hadn’t logged enough hours in ortho and this was the perfect opportunity to do so. He read up on the surgery so he would be prepared; he knew that Dr Torres would let him have more free reign in the operating room than most and Jackson didn’t want to make any mistakes. She wanted him to learn.
It was supposed to be easy. He didn’t want to make any mistakes but that didn’t stop any from happening. One of the screws that he had placed into her spine had come loose, travelled its way through her body and sliced up her heart. With every beat, it took to keep her alive it had just about killed her.
He almost killed someone last night. She had a family and he even spoke to her mother on the phone trying to quell her concerns, which he wouldn’t even have to tell her if he had just been more precise in the operating room.
“You okay?” April questions and he glances up from the table, taking in her concerned face.

Inappropriate
Jackson dropped his suitcase by the door stepped out of his shoes as noiselessly as possible. He knew it wasn’t the best place to keep them and April would most likely revise to him the importance of keeping his shoes in the proper place, but he was too tired to put them in the closet.
All he wanted do to at this moment was see his wife and his son. Samuel was only born a month ago, and they both wanted to spend as much time as possible with him before they went back to work. It was a big adjustment, Jackson wasn’t planning to start a family so soon. But he didn’t plan on falling in love with his best friend either, in fact, he was pretty sure that plans didn’t mean anything.
He wasn’t looking forward to going back to work so you could imagine his enthusiasm when his mother called and told him that his presence was absolutely required at some last minute, impromptu board meeting at one of the bigger Avery hospitals. It was so important that he be there and his influence was so greatly needed in the decision-making process.

April gets Chief Resident and Jackson helps her celebrate.
“Well, they’re gonna hate you again.” Jackson pointed out, smirking away from April who silently was trying to weigh up the repercussions of he just said. It had been a long day and an even longer shift. “It’s now your job to boss them around. I know how much they love that.”
“Oh, is that true?” April turned in her desk chair to face him slightly. He didn’t mean to rile her up, although sometimes that was a lot of fun, she truly looked horrified. “That’s true!”
“We should celebrate this,” Jackson uttered after a moment.
The suggestion was enough for stop the impending but not so unpredictable freak-out his best friend and newly appointed Chief Resident, April Kepner, was about to release upon him that night.
“What?” She gulped and turned her head from the pale grey office blinds so she was facing him again. "After what you just said you can’t be serious, Jackson?“
"When have you ever known me to joke?” April gave him a look that by this point in all the time they’d known each other that he’d come to both love and hate.
“Please,” she retorted and turned back to the keyboard, quickly typing out something on the screen. “When aren’t you making up some smugly thing to say. You can be such a butthead sometimes.”
She reached out and poked him in the bicep for good measure but he wasn’t giving up.

Part 1 Part 2 Part 3 Part 4
“How did you do this again, Janet?” April asks calmly as she cleans the patient’s wound.
“I decided to take this stupid pottery class,” she winces as April started stitching up her wound. “I made three vases for my boy- Ex-boyfriend. He’s an art history student and I thought that it would be cool if I took an interest.”
“Well, that sounds sweet.” April doesn’t look up from the gash in Janet’s arm when she starts to stitch it up.
“It was until I caught him with the professor.” Janet uses her free hand to brush her short blonde hair behind her ear with a scowl on her face. She had bypassed denial and settled comfortably in the anger stage. “I smashed them all up behind my apartment but being the giant klutz, I am I hurt myself in the process.”
She had slipped in the rain, fallen and sliced her forearm up badly enough to need stitches. Janet was glad she didn’t live too far from Seattle Grace Mercy West. She clutched her injured arm in a dish towel and ran but once the adrenaline had worn off she felt ashamed.
“You must think I’m such a loser,” she says.
“Trust me, it isn’t strangest thing I’ve seen around here.” April smiles and hopefully Janet was soothed. “And your ex sounds like the loser.”
April finishes the last stitch and wraps her arm in a clean bandage. Janet’s wound was superficial so April discharged her as soon as she was finished.
“That is everyone” Jackson states when she joined him behind the desk in the ER. It had been busier before and he had been working alongside her but she hadn’t noticed that he had finished.
April nods and wipes the whiteboard down so it was free of patient names. Her body hummed when she felt Jackson come up behind her.
“Watching you run this place,” he moves in closer to her and rests one hand on the counter above hers. “Is really, really sexy.”
“Hey, hey, hey,” April warns when she felt his hand on the small of her back.
“We need to go public with this thing.” Jackson sighs. She walks past him to sit at the desk and he did the same. “I can’t keep track of when and where I can put my arms on my own girlfriend.”

If Japril were together in the frat house.
The light from the hallway shone in underneath the gap from the door keeping April awake. It would take getting used to living with so many people. She and Jackson were sharing a room on the first floor. April didn’t understand how he could fall asleep so easily in their new environment. It must have helped that he had such a long shift but she could hear every sound made, every creak in the floorboards or a leaky faucet.
However, at this moment in time, the only thing that was really bothering her and keeping her from getting a good night’s rest was the incredible urge to pee but she was far too self-conscious about using a strange bathroom, especially in the middle of the night.
It also didn’t help that Jackson always insisted on wrapping himself around her body, both of his arms holding her waist securely and one long leg slung over her hip. She honestly didn’t know how she didn’t suffocate from his huge weight, they slept like this every night for as long as they’d been together. She tried to wriggle free but it was no use.
“Jackson,”
“Humph,”
“Hey Jackson, are you awake?”
He grumbles into her hair and snuggles against her back. “No, I’m not awake and neither are you.”

Fight
“I’m just saying I could have handled that myself, Jackson,” April ranted from the bathroom. It was late evening, they could have stayed at Lexie’s party much longer but their night had got cut short. She was mad and he was irritated.
“You were about to be manhandled,” Jackson called back while he changed out of his clothes. He didn’t understand why she was so mad. They had been having a good time with their friends but usually because Mark knew so many people some random people were bound to show up. Jackson wasn’t habitually jealous kind of guy unless April was involved. Some guy had been following April all night and he just lost it.
“He was all over you,” Jackson stated with disgust, as he looked through the drawers for some sweatpants.
April rolled her eyes even though he couldn’t see her, putting her toothbrush back before speaking. “He was not.”
Jackson scoffed and she turned off the light and entered the bedroom. “April, the guy wouldn’t take no for an answer.”
“Well, I was about to explain to him I wasn’t interested before you rolled up like a freakin’ hurricane,” April said stepping up to him.
