I was listening to True Love by P!nk, and I thought the lyrics fit Jack PERFECTLY if he was in a relationship. He can be an asshole, but you'd always get over it XD
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Urgh! Jack, you're so infuriating!"
"Enough, (y/n)! I don't want to hear it anymore!"
Once again the two of you were having the same argument as before. You went off in one direction while Jack went the other, trying to ignore all of your shouting and the anger you showed. These arguments happened quite often, mostly over the same thing every time and both of you would go off on your own for a couple of hours to get alone time. You and Jack had been together for almost a year now, and frankly with the way he was you were surprised at how you stayed with him for that long.
But there was just something about him that made you come crawling back every time. The longest you went without talking to him was one day, and then by the end of it you were wrapped up in his arms again apologizing every minute or so. He could barely stand it sometimes when the two of you were apart, especially in cases like this, he never liked to fight with you, Jack loved you. But with him being the way he is, it was hard for him to cope with his feelings, and after losing Angel and Nisha, it wasn't easy to be in another steady relationship.
But he cared and loved you more than anything, and you were the only thing in his life that made him feel. . . comfortable, loved, happy, everything that he was missing in his life. And after a day of searching and trying to find a way to end all of those Vault Hunters, he needed a break from time to time. Spending time with you was what he needed at the end of the day, your arms around his body, your lips on his, your love and comfort.
You stared out the large window as you viewed the planet below you. So many things were going through your mind you didn't know what to do. Should you go off somewhere and walk around? Go to the shooting range? Read? You just wanted something to get Jack off your mind.
But you were finding it impossible.
"Dammit. . ." you hissed, the tears slowly swelling up in your eyes. You never meant to hurt him, you couldn't help but think that one day if this arguing hadn't stopped, Jack might not be home one morning, and the morning after, and then the next day. What if he had left? You wouldn't be able to take it. You didn't know if he felt the same, he never showed it in his expressions or actions. The though alone of him leaving killed you; yet why did he always act like this?
After two hours, the two of you still weren't talking, but the same questions kept running through your mind, and eventually you had had enough. You needed to fix this, you needed to fix everything. Your feet quickly turned to speed into his office, the tears beaming down your cheeks.
Jack sat in his chair with his thumb caressing his bottom lip, it seems his mind was filled with the thought of you. He hadn't touched one of his papers or his computer, not a single word was made on the screen. Jack had thought about coming after you, but he knew you'd still be mad at him, and trying to force this on you would have made it worse. He figured waiting it out would be better, and he hoped that you would come to him soon.
That when the slide door suddenly came open. The only person who had access into his office without permission was the manager. . . and you. His head quickly looked up as he heard rapid footsteps approach him. A smile adorned his face as he saw your figure standing there at the end of the room. Jack stood up from his chair.
"(Y/n)," he started, his words fumbling as he spoke, "I'm sorr-"
"Don't Jack." You call over to him. Soon your pace began to quicken as your legs carried you over to him. As you met him Jack wrapped his arms around your body and lifted you up off the ground, his face buried into your neck as he inhaled your perfume. He smiled to himself, he knew he couldn't stay away from you for long, and you knew you couldn't either. Tears were still in your eyes, as you promised yourself that this wasn't going to happen again.
"I'm the one who's sorry." You say as you whisper in his ear.
"No," he says as he pulls away to look into your (e/c) eyes, his thumb then began to caress your cheek. "None of this should happen. . . the fighting, the tension. . ."
You watched him as his face became closer to yours, your lips inches apart from his.
"You know I love you (y/n), don't forget that."
You smiled and nodded as Jack leaned into you, his lips meeting yours. They were soft and sweet, it was his way of making up for all that had happened since he wasn't so great when it came to things like this.
Jack was an asshole half the time, you wanted to wrap your hands around his neck, but you loved him. Between you and him, this was the definition of love.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
