Broken promises ~ JJ Maybank ~ Sequel to Promises

Chapter twenty-five ~ Last Time

~Chateau~

We get back to the chateau and the boys are all chanting about getting ward locked up.
I get up from outside and walk into the kitchen.

Jb: well hello princess pogue, welcome home.

I smile at him.

K: thank you lord JB.

P: how you feeling?

K: not as happy as you guys clearly,

I laugh a bit before looking at Jj. He looks back at me and smiles.

K: I'm just gonna-

I take JJ's hand and slowly walk into the guest room I claimed.

Jb: wow.

P: real sneaky guys!

Jj laughed at the boys while I got a new shirt out of the closet. I pulled my dirty top off and threw it on the floor.

Jj: erm, w-what did you...need?

He stutters as he watched me change.
Once I put a new shirt on I turn around and sit next to him.

Jj: so?...

K: you wanted to talk.

Jj: oh yeah, er me and you.

K: yeah

Jj: what's going on?

K: I don't know.

Jj: I'm not saying it's bad, I mean it was bad really bad, I thought i was losing you but now, right now it's... it's good.

K: I think so too.

I take his hand and intwine our fingers.

K: I heard you.

Jj: huh?

K: I heard you say it, when I was shot.

Jj: oh erm that.

He rubs the back of his neck.

Jj: what about it?

K: did you mean it?

Jj: are you kidding me?

K: well I don't-

Jj: of course I meant it.

K: I just thought that because I could've died, you felt like you needed-

I was cut off by Jj putting his hand on my cheek and pulling me in. Our lips connected and we shared a passionate kiss. Finally.
We slowly pulled away after.

Jj: I've always meant it.

I didn't need to say anything, I simply just smiled at him as I looked into his ocean blue eyes.

Jj: but I can't be friends with you.

I was taken back by his words.

K: w-what?

Jj: I care about you too much to be friends, I wanna be with you keeks.

He said as he put a fallen piece of hair behind my ear. How does he always make my heart feel so warm?

K: I wanna be with you too.

Jj: you do?

K: of course I do. But we can't-

Jj: yes we can.

He takes my hand.

Jj: I am so sorry, for what I said and what I did. And ending things with you was the biggest mistake of my life. I can't take that back, if I could I would believe me.
