28One Hundred One Shots
Disclaimer: I do not own Jane and the Dragon. Thank You!
Note: This is a very rough and strange fanfic, I just wanted to write something that at least started at the table with them eating, other then that I had no idea what I was going to write which makes me wonder how I came up with something like this! As for the title it doesn't have a whole lot to do with the story, but at least in my one shots I like to have titles. Oh and before I forget the ending is quite odd, the reason for which is the fact that i couldn't think of a proper ending.
(Below is what FanFiction did to the above before I rewrote it, the beginning is fine but as you read on you'll notice that it is a little odd. I just left it for your possible enjoyment!)

Bells
(Jane's POV)
It had been a hard day, from the moment I got up I hadn't had a moments rest. Finally at the end of the day when everyone was sitting around the table waiting for Pepper to bring out whatever delectable item she had prepared… my one chance for a normal conversation or simple relaxation with my friends and I kept nodding off.
I heard bells and then someone gently shaking me, I groggily looked up into Jester's face and tried to listen to what he was trying to tell me. "Jane perhaps you should just grab a piece of bread and go to bed." I sat up straight and shook my head, "I'm fine Jester, I don't need to sleep and besides this is the first chance I've had to see you all day… and whatever Pepper is cooking smells too good to pass up." Jester sighed and left it at that. Perhaps I was just being too stubborn… okay so maybe I was being too stubborn but I had made up my mind that I was going to have a pleasant meal with everyone long before I was this tired and I wasn't going to change my mind even if my body kept telling me to do so.
The meal had just ended and everyone had slowly gone to bed, I was full and quite content but once again I felt myself drifting off. My head which had been resting on my hand fell down quickly waking me up but only for a moment for I simply laid my head on my arms and went back to sleep.
(Jester's POV)
I had been on the battlements writing another ballad and had decided to walk by the kitchen and grab a little snack before I went to bed… what should I have cheese. No that won't do. Bread! Maybe. I guess I'll just see what looks the best. As I rounded the corner I saw a fiery orb lying on the table… I shook my head, she had fallen asleep after all I should have known she would and stayed with her to make sure she made it to her room but… well there is no use dwelling on what I should have done, I'll just wake her and that will be that.
I walked over to Jane and shook her gently trying to wake her up.
"Jane. Jane! Jane!"
I kept shaking her trying to wake her up but all she did was turn her head the other direction. Under normal circumstances I might have just left her there since she did like sleeping outside but looking up at the sky it looked like it might rain so I moved her into a position so that I could carry her and picked her up. Jane may look light because she was small but she's all muscle so it was a bit of a challenge for me to carry her up the stairs. Looking down at her though made even the long trek up the stairs seem worth while so I continued on as best I could.
(Jane's POV)
I woke up expecting to still be outside at the table but found myself in my room and in my bed.
"How did I get up here?"
Then I slowly remembered what I had thought to be a dream, a hard uncomfortable place being replace by the comforting arms of someone and the gentle sound of bells… slowly being carried to a soft bed then someone tucking the blankets around me and again the sound of bells. Jester. Jester must have brought me to my room, I could feel my cheeks burning at this… I began thinking of a number of ways I could get out of breakfast before realizing how silly this was and the fact that I would have to face him sooner or later so I got up washed my face and got dressed for the day.
When I arrived at the breakfast table I was greeted by everyone and Jester seemed to be trying to hide something from me, of course I knew what he was trying to hide so it was just a waste of energy for him to try. I walked over and sat in my usual place next to Jester and asked him if he had slept well, "Yes I slept well and you Jane?" I smiled and said, "I slept exceptionally well, though I must admit I had the strangest dream." He suddenly went pale and somehow managed to reply. "Really, that is interesting, was it a good dream?" Suddenly I felt my cheeks getting hot when I replied, "Indeed, it was a wonderful dream." His cheeks turned a bright red and he said, "I'm glad… I'm glad!"
(Everyone of course would probably be looking at them wondering what in the world was going on… after a while Jane and Jester would probably notice everyone staring at them and the two of them would be very embarrassed and suddenly find something interesting with their food though they would probably keep exchanging glances all day!)
