Distance *a Jack Johnson fanfic*

• h a r p e r •

I'm sleeping peacefully, curled up on my side, my hands by my face and my head in Sammy's lap when I hear a noise like the front door opening. My eyes immediately shoot open. Standing at the front door is Jack.
I look at him confused. "What the hell are you doing here?"
"Babe, I love you and I'm so sorry I fucked up and that I keep leaving you. Baby you mean the world to me. You're my everything. You complete me and I love you so much it hurts most days. I'm so sorry for everything and I just want you back in my life. I promise I'll be here for you more. Now what do you say? Do you forgive me for being a dick?"
I laugh at him. He looks so adorable when he's flustered and determined.
"What are you laughing about?"
"You." I reply.
"What about me?" He looks almost worried.
"The fact that you're getting really flustered and all because you're worried you've upset me and shit."
"Well obviously I have."
"Really? What the hell was your first clue Jack?"
Sammy looks at me concerned, probably wondering how much I can take before the truth comes out.
Jack looks confused for a moment.
"I'm absolutely sorry for everything baby. I'm sorry that I have upset you in anyway at all. Just, please, don't push me away, okay. I love you too much to loose you."
"Okay."
"So, how about the two of us go on a date or go do something?"
"I don't feel good so I think I just want to go to bed." I respond truthfully.
He looks heartbroken. "Oh, okay. That's fine. Feel better baby. I love you." He leans forehead and kisses my forehead.
"Thanks." I respond, refusing to say 'I love you' back to him.
He still looks heartbroken. He doesn't say anything, instead he goes into the bedroom and stays there for a little bit while I keep my head in Sammy's lap.
I sigh. I can't wait for this to all be over.

The rest of the night, Jack tries to give me a bit of space and Sammy leaves the apartment motioning his head slightly to the side in the direction of my phone. I smile at him knowing what he means: Text him if I need him. He smiles back at me then leaves.
"So, how have you been?" Jack asks awkwardly.
"Sick." I respond.
"Oh my God babe, are you okay?" He asks worriedly.
"Yes. I just had the stomach flu, then a slight cold, it's fine. I'll be fine."
"Okay."
Sleeping that night is awkward as hell. Usually as I'm laying in bed at night, when it's me and Sammy, I tell my stomach- and the precious baby inside it- goodnight, but I can't really do that tonight if Jack is in bed with me. As we lay there, Jack tries to lean over to kiss me goodnight. I accept the kiss, just so I don't come across as a bitch.
I honestly missed the feeling of his lips on mine and I almost forgot what it was like, I went without them so long. We pull apart and he quickly pecks my lips again. "I love you Harper."
"I love you too, Jack."
With that we go to bed and as we sleep I move my body farther
and

farther away from him,

distancing myself more from him.

A/ I couldn't help myself. 💕 I may post one more chapter before I go to bed too. Idk. 😘 I'm just so excited for you all to see how it ends omg.
