I'm gonna go nap while you guys read this.
Enjoy!
who hogs the duvet I feel like this applies to both Jamie and Vicky. They both grew up in northern states (Pennsylvania and Massachusetts), so they're not just used to it freezing at night, they LOVE it. Even during the winter, they turn up the A/C and burrow themselves under the bedspread.
who texts/rings to check how their day is going After their daughters, Olivia and Lily, were born and Jamie has earned enough in royalties for his novels that he can stay home with the girls, Vicky usually calls him during her lunchtime to check in. They tell stories about their day so far, talk about dinner plans, etc.
who’s the most creative when it comes to gifts Jamie. I mean, he's a writer. It's in his nature to be creative.
who gets up first in the morning Jamie. He jots down whatever ideas came to him during the night, makes breakfast and coffee, and gently wakes Vicky up (she's not NOT a morning person, but she's slow to waking up)
who suggests new things in bed Vicky. Despite Jamie being married first, his sex with Amanda was very vanilla, so he wasn't as experienced as she expected him to be.
who cries at movies Both.
who gives unprompted massagesWell, Jamie usually rubs Vicky's back after she's had a bad day, but she loves to massage him when he's been hunched over his desk writing for a long time.
who fusses over the other when they’re sick Oh, they both mother-hen over each other. Vicky deals with some pretty rough morning sickness during all of her pregnancies, and Jamie refuses to leave her side unless he has to get something for her.
who gets jealous easiest Vicky is a little insecure considering that Jamie's ex-wife was a model, but Jamie is always quick to reassure her that he loves her and only her. Jamie is a little prone to jealousy whenever one of Vicky's students flirt with her, but she always smartly turns them away.
who has the most embarrassing taste in music Jamie.
who collects something unusual Jamie has an arsenal of notebooks and journals that he hasn't written in at all. Vicky is almost afraid that it's replaced his other addictions.
who takes the longest to get ready Neither of them are fussy when it comes to looks.
who is the most tidy and organised Vicky.
who gets most excited about the holidays Jamie. Vicky, on the other hand, associated Christmas more with her mother's holiday parties and family drama until she met Jamie. Now, she looks forward to the holidays.
who is the big spoon/little spoon They trade off equally, depending on how their days are going.
who suggests that they buy a pet Vicky already has a cat, Betty, by the time she and Jamie meet.
what tv shows they watch together They love Little House on the Prairie, The X-Files, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Murphy Brown, Full House, Who's The Boss?, Beauty and the Beast, and Twin Peaks.
