Happy Endings (chap 7)

Hey all! I hope you're enjoying. Honestly please feel free to suggest anything to happen. I have ideas but it's always good to get feedback. This was a very dramatic yet rushed part so if you didn't like it then leave a comment. Enjoy!

In 5 hours I'll be on a plane to Australia. It's been 3 days since Joanna showed up. Me and Jay have barely talked since. He slept on the couch while I slept on the bed. I didn't want to leave with us on a bad note.

I was packing my Ted baker bag, wearing only underwear and an sweatshirt when Jay came up behind my and grabbed my waist.

"Baby, don't make me leave with you like this. You're torn up and Joanna and I didn't help." He held me close and put his chin over my head. I pushed him away and zipped up my bag.

"I'll be in Australia, and while I'm gone why don't you get your priorities straight and start deciding who you want involved in your life. I'm not gonna compete." I mumbled, before pulling on some sweatpants and pulling my suitcase down the stairs.

"Wait!" He yelled.

"What?"

"Let me drive you."

"No, Someones coming to pick me up."

"You're gonna be late let me just drive you."

I sighed and rolled my bags to the Jeep, throwing my stuff in the trunk and going into the passengers seat. "No funny business." He nodded and drove me to the airport.

*45 minutes later

He pulled up to the curb and helped me out. He leaned in to give me a kiss but then I pulled back.

"Alexis, I love you so much. This breaks me up seeing how torn apart you are and I'm so so sorry I wasn't there for you. Please forgive me, I love you too much." I turned around and stared at him dead in the eye.

"Yea? Well I don't love you." I immediately regretted saying that. He stared at me and I could see he was trying to hold back. He stood there while I turned around and made my way through the airport.

*about 5 mins later.

I stood at the gate, looking back at the entrance. I put my bags down and ran back towards the entrance. My eyes filled with tears and I could barely see Jay still standing at the Jeep. I ran as fast as I could till I get near him, I jumped up and into his arms, wrapped my legs around his waist and my arms around his neck. "I'm so sorry, I didn't mean it! I love you so much! Please come to Australia with me." Tiny tears streamed down my fast, I hugged him so tightly, I could never let go.

"I wish I could. I'll call and text you every day. I love you so much, Alexis."

"I love you so so so much, Jay." I locked lips with him, he held me tightly around my waist and we held our kiss for almost 30 seconds. Then we parted and he helped me take my bags to my gate. Jay always made me feel like a princess, and he was giving me my happy ending.
