I hadn't realised he was leaving that soon, I thought I had at least another week if not more. Tomorrow?


If tonight is his last night here why is he spending it like this? He should be out saying goodbye to everyone before he leaves them... before he leaves me.


I lay back on his bed, the blankets smothering around me of their own accord as I try to take in the view that is becoming increasingly littered with darkness.


The comfort of being here let's me fall into such a peaceful state, not sleeping but completely free of burden for a solitary moment. Now I have this, I don’t want to let it go...


I was so content I hadn't even heard Jayce come back in until his hand gently stroked my cheek. "Lee.. I'm done if you're ready to go?"


Walking with him back to the car, the night time air is a startle to my body after being so warm in the bed. Jayce puts his jacket around me but it only serves to strengthen the bond I feel against him leaving so soon.

He offers to buy me food but for the first time in a long time I don’t actually feel hungry. I just keep trying not to look at him as I sit wrapped in his hoodie, just like always being surrounded by his scent makes me feel calmer.


"Why didn't you tell me you were going tomorrow?... You made it sound soon but not that soon." I'd managed to stay quiet all the way home but now as we pull into the driveway I know I have to ask or I'll lose my nerve.


Jayce runs his hands through his hair and I can see the debate he's having in his head before he answers. "I... I just..."


"Just tell me the truth Jayce."


I can see he was trying to figure out how to word it but I just want him to give it to me straight.


He sighs. "You already know why Lee." Without giving me a second to answer he opens the door and makes straight for the house.


All the lights are off, after the party everyone was exhausted and probably flat out already. Jayce doesn't stop, heading straight up the stairs as if I'm not even whisper shouting his name and racing after him like a lunatic.


"Jayce! Stop... what the hell do you mean I already know?!"


He tries to close his bedroom door on me but I block it with my foot and shove my whole body into getting it open again.

Jayce stumbles back, not expecting me to hit it with such force and I’m rather proud of myself. "Jayce, what the fuck? Why did you do that?"


He starts pacing the room, fingers interlocked behind his head. I wait for him to turn around before launching at him and taking hold of his face, his breathing is so erratic. He's trying to stare at the ground but I tilt his head up so our eyes meet. "Jayce talk to me."

Why is he being like this? Everything was good a few hours ago, now he’s acting like when I first got here again.


His hands come up to match my hold o his face against my own. "I couldn't tell you because I knew if you asked me not to go, I wouldn't! I knew that if I even thought there was a glimmer of hope for us I'd say fuck it to every plan I've made, I'd say fuck it to the NBA and I'd stay right here with you!" His tone sounds angry but in his eyes is only pain.


I stand shocked. My head falls against his chest as his hands move down to my waist. "Jayce I would never ask you to do any of that, even if we could have found a way to be together I would never ask you to give up your dreams, you know that."


His lips plant firmly against the back of my head as I continue to look down at my feet, my forehead leaning on him to keep myself upright.


"Our dream Lee."


His chest starts to rise and fall more quickly and he rushes out the words before he can change his mind. "Did you really think when I was doing all that work I did it just for me? I thought about you every fucking second, every decision, every drop of sweat, blood and tears was so I could make something you could be proud of. It was your vision, I just wanted to make it come true....”

The tears fill in my eyes and i knew this breaking point was coming from the moment I saw him walk into this house again. “Jayce I’ve never seen anything more perfect than what you’ve built there, I couldn’t have even imagined something like that. It truly is our dream come true.”

“Look at me. Please.”

I gently lift my head off his chest to see him, his face showing all his emotion with no mask.

“Lee I want you to come with me?"


"What?" I ask breathlessly, is he seriously asking me that right now?


His grip on me grows firmer. "Come with me. Just get on that boat with me tomorrow and we'll leave, we can figure it out when we're out there. Just let me show you the world."


I can feel the tears pooling in my eyes, he's offering me everything I've ever wanted. Not in my wildest dreams could I have believed this would be my reality. I try to pull back from him but his hold refuses to let go. "Jayce... you know I can't do that. Nothings changed. Us being together it only causes pain, everything is so good for everyone around us now... we've been apart for so long, how do we even know how we feel about each other?... Jayce you have to let me go now..."


His arms hold my body as I attempt to yank away from him once more, pulling me into his body and lifting me so I have no choice but to face him.

"Lee please. If you want me to let you go right now I will, I will put you down right here and walk away. I promise I will but I can't do that without you knowing something first."


I stare up at his eyes filling with tears now as we’ll and I know the words that I'm dying to hear leave his lips in this moment will doom us both to a pain worse than death, but I still need to hear them.


He lowers me when he sees I'll listen, moving his hands from my waist to take hold of my face and bringing me just inches from him. "I'm still in love with you Lee. I'm still completely and utterly in love with you, I couldn’t stop no matter how I tried and fuck did I try. I want this, all of this but if I can't, I still have to know one thing before I throw my whole life away on a cause without a hope... are you still in love with me?"


My lip quivers as the tears fall down my cheeks. Looking into his pleading eyes I finally let it all hit me; the pain of losing him, the fear of letting him back in, the love I feel for him that fills every molecule of my soul. I let every bit of it in and it sends my walls crashing to the floor. We may never have more than right now again... but we have tonight.


"I'm still in love you Jayce."


His tears fall as his lips crash into mine, the salty water coating our cheeks as we kiss with all the hunger of a starving man. The release of filling my need for him overwhelming to the point I want to collapse, the memories of all the times I cried myself to sleep praying just to feel his lips on mine again one last time are wiped away in an instant.


Our lips move in perfect sync, his hand holding my jaw and refusing to let me leave him. His tongue starts to dance with mine as he searches every inch of my mouth as if he were trying to recover a lost memory with his touch.


There is no pain now, only the all encompassing sense of love and joy that us being together causes.


My hands find the hem of his top as I lift it up over his head, him allowing me to break the kiss for only a moment before he finds it again. I run my hands up the firm muscles of his back, letting them flow over every one in an effort to leave the lasting mark of my touch against him.


His fingers loop into the straps of my dress, sliding them off my shoulders before he takes hold of the material and hurls it to the ground, our kiss never wavering as the fabric lands in a puddle at my feet.


I can't stop touching him, my hands moving from his back up his neck and into his hair. The feeling of his bare skin against mine so soul fulfilling it's like I've been in a coma for the last three years and I've suddenly woken up.


Pulling his belt from the loop his jeans fall to the floor and I'm hoisted up into his arms, my fingers buried in his roots whilst my legs wrap around his waist. He releases the kiss slightly, his lips still touching mine but allowing me some much needed oxygen as he walks us over to the bed, his hands making short work of undoing my bra before tossing it on the floor before my back even hits the mattress.


The familiar scent of him engulfs my senses as his lips move to my neck, activating a part of me I thought was long lost. His lips tracing down over my skin until they reach my nipple, circling the hard bud with his tongue before flicking aggressively. His finger moves to the other breast as he starts to work them both in synchronisation, they become so hard under his touch as cold bumps start to make their way across my body following the trail of my arousal.


As he bites into the one in his mouth, he pinches the other firmly and my back arches off the bed into him as a deep moan radiates from within my chest.


This feeling hasn't been something I could forget and yet it still feels brand new, his hand travelling up the side of my thigh and making my legs part on instinct.


I know my tiny panties are soaked already as his hand palms against my heat, his fingers sliding the fabric to one side before pressing against my hot, wet core.


My body jolts and I know he felt it, the sense of having someone touch me there so foreign after all this time. His lips move back to mine. "Are you okay? Do you want me to stop?"


I move my hands along his spine from his hips until they reach his neck and pull him into a deep kiss. "Please don't stop... I just... it's been a long time..."


He pulls away from the kiss but hovers his face above mine, eyes wide as he stares down at me. "Lee... have you not... been with anyone like this at all since me?"


I don't know whether to feel embarrassed but as I look into his eyes I see he just wants to know, I'd told him I hadn't had a boyfriend but he probably still assumed there had been people I at least fooled around with.

"You're the only person I've ever been with Jayce, you're the only person to touch me like this... I haven't even kissed anyone else from the day I left..."


His lips crash onto mine. "Fuck..." Taking hold of my underwear he rips them from my body, knowing that my body has only ever been his is enough to send him over the edge of control. "I haven't either Lee... I couldn't ever bring myself to be with anyone but you..." His lips begging my body for release with open mouth kisses travelling further and further down.


I can't believe he hasn't been with anyone, I hadn't even held out hope for something like that. My body erupts as his teeth gently graze at my inner thigh, my pussy aching for his touch.


His hands spread my thighs, leaving them open for him before his finger comes between my glistening wet lips and starts to tease my clit, his eyes glued to mine.


The tension builds as I feel the pressure push to the surface below his teasing digit, I cry out as he slides down and pushes inside me. My pleading clit soon fulfilled again as he begins soothing the throb with his tongue.


He hasn't missed a beat, my body completely at his mercy as he ravages me with every flick, lick and suck. His fingers push deeper into my entrance as he pumps slowly, my constitution responding with a sweet melody of moans.


I know I'm too close too soon but everything he does is like he's listening in on my thoughts and responding with exactly what I want. As my hand interlocks with the back of his hair I feel his hand come back to cover mine and place gentle pressure, instructing me to force his face to exactly where I want it. Him giving me that control for a moment was too much and as he hits that spot again and again I explode with a skull splitting orgasm.


My body shakes as my thighs clench against his head and I have to bury my face into the pillow next to me just to muffle the screams I no longer have control of.


The whole world turns black for a moment and there is only one word in my entire collection I seem to be able to remember right now as my head becomes fuzzy and my legs spasm.


"JAYCE!"


He doesn't relent, hitting all the spots I need inside and out until I have completely run out my high.


I pull his mouth back to mine, not caring the taste of me is still on his lips as I take them in. I've needed him, my mind needs to be around him, my body needs to feel his touch and my soul has no choice but to love him.


His hips sit between mine as his head falls to mine, his eyes looking into mine as I push his boxers down to his ankles. I've never wanted anything as much as I want him inside me right now.


"Jayce.." He stops just as his hard member sets itself right against my opening. His face scans mine for hesitation but that isn't why I stopped him. I reach up to stroke his face, his piercing blue orbs glowing as my lips curl up into a smile. “I love you.”


His lips take mine as he thrusts into me hard and deep, forcing all our puzzle pieces to finally unite.


We are one again.


His movements start slow, him savouring the feeling of being inside me. "Fuck Lee... you're still so fucking tight... you were made for me princess." His motion building as his pace increases and I can feel how wet I am as it spills out of me onto the sheets.


Our lips lock as he holds his hand against the back of my neck but I need more, dragging my nails down his back a growl emanates from deep within him before he starts to pound harder and harder until he just hits into me without mercy.


My nails dig into his shoulders as he thrusts deeper and deeper, each time getting faster until I think he's definitely going to split me in half but I don't care. The adrenaline coursing through my veins gives me a strength I've never felt before as I flip us onto the other side of the bed.


I don't take a second to breathe as I land on top of him, our bodies never disconnecting as I start to ride him furiously.


"Fuck Lee... I'm gonna..."


His eyes start to roll back in his head as his fingers claw at the supple flesh of my thighs. My palms lay flat against his chest and I know I can't hold out much longer as his cock hits my g-spot with every thrust.


Just as I think it can't get any better and ready myself to let go Jayce takes hold of my hips and starts to pound me down onto him whilst he thrusts up into me.


I'm done.


Jayce pulls my lips to his to muffle our screams as the most powerful orgasm I've ever had hits me like a freight train. I want to scream, cry and punch a fucking wall all at the same time, I feel entirely invincible. I see him contort his face in pleasure as his hot seed fills me.


I've never been more grateful that Brie makes me take my pill like they're damn tic-tac’s.


I continue to grind against him softly until every last drop is milked from him into me before collapsing onto his chest.


Sweat coats both our bodies and we're gasping for air but I think we'd both agree that even in this state, neither of us have ever been happier.


We lay there, both unable to talk as his arms hold our naked forms together.


Jayce turns to his side, taking me with him until both our heads sit on the pillow facing each other.


He kisses me but it's so gentle compared to how we just were, Jayce's ability to switch from rabid animal to romantic dream in an instant never ceases to amaze me.


"I've missed you so much." His fingers following the curve over my hip and into my waist. "This is how it's supposed to be Lee, it's supposed to be us, I know it and so do you."


I can't think about that right now, my mind not properly processing the information it needs at this moment. I kiss him delicately against his jaw and his arms pull me back into him.


Just as my eyes close to take me to a dream that can't come close to meeting the reality of this night I hear him whisper once more.


"Please come with me."
