"Y/N can you not see that I have a range of things to do before I even consider going home?! I have multiple surgeries and amputations to save people's lives." Jack said in a low, but very obviously annoyed voice.
"What about our life? Our baby's life?" Y/N reached a hand out to hold Jacks, but he turned away from Y/N and walked out the door.

Y/N watched the door close behind him and a tear fell from her eye. Dabbing it carefully, to not make it run before she left to attend her show tonight, she sniffled and shook her body before making her way to the speakeasy down the road for her performance. Doing some final preparations, Y/N warmed up her voice and took a deep breath before making her way on stage.

"As long as he needs me... Oh, yes, he does need me... In spite of what you see... I'm sure that he needs me.  Who else would love him still, when they've been used so ill? He knows I always will... As long as he needs me." Y/N sang and took a breath, fiddling with her fingers. "I miss him so much when he is gone... But when he's near me, I don't let on the way I feel inside. The love, I have to hide... The hell! I've got my pride; as long as he needs me!"

Y/N's eyes scanned the audience with tear brimmed eyes. "He doesn't say the things he should, he acts the way he thinks he should. But all the same, I'll play this game his way! As long as he needs me, I know where I must be. I'll cling on steadfastly, as long as he needs me. As long as life is long... I'll love him right or wrong, and somehow, I'll be strong as long as he needs me. If you are lonely then you will know... When someone needs you, you love them so. I won't betray his trust... Though people say I must."

Y/N took a deep breath and prepared to place all her anger into the finishing line. "I've got to stay... true... just... as long as he needs me." Y/N's breath got caught in her throat and she felt her bottom lip tremble, so she wiped her face in order of attempting to cover it up. That was, until, she caught a glimpse of the blonde male stood in the corner of the dark room. Quickly running off stage, Y/N ran to the bathroom and leaned against the door so that no one could come in.

"Y/N... Y/N can I come in?" Y/N heard the voice of her friend coming from the other side of the door, and she took some of her weight off the door to allow her friend entry. When Y/N realised the door was still open, she turned around and looked out the door to see Jack stood there.
"What do you want?" Y/N wiped some tears and Jack entered the doorway of the bathroom and looked her up and down with a sympathetic look on his face. He quickly stroked the top of Y/N's hands before moving his up to Y/N's face.

Kissing her with passion, Y/N melted into the kiss and neither of them wanted it to end. As the two moved their heads away from each others, Jack stroked Y/N's cheek.
"My love I have come to apologise."
"For what?"
"For not paying you or our baby enough attention. I have got all my schedule for the next few days covered, so we can have some time together... so we can spend some time together..."
