Jimmy;

I turned around in bed, longing for the warmth of her embrace, only to find nothing but pillows. Then I remembered, shit.

I let out a sigh and glanced at my phone, 5:45 am. I flipped around and saw my laptop beside me, it was nothing but the covers then I heard her soft snores. A small smile soon spread across my face as I finally saw her, gosh she looked so peaceful. This week needs to go by fast.

Then I heard her groans, her eyes fluttered open and she saw me looking at her, "Hey," I smiled.

"Hi," She replied while hiding a yawn. I nodded and just admired her, even when she just woke up, she's gorgeous.

"What are you smiling at, hm?" She asked with a sleepy smile, "You."

"And why is that so?"

"You make me happy, Sarah."

She just stared at me and I could see her eyes welling up. Oh shit. Did I just bring back a bad memory? My smile instantly faltered, "Honey? Oh my gosh, I am so sorry, I didn't mean to say anything- God, I didn't mean to make you cry."

She shook her head, "No, its just... no one has ever said that to me... Hearing it just made me emotional, I'm sorry."

My heart broke when I heard what she said, I don't even want to know how that asshole treated her but now, he's out of the picture. I just wanted to hug her, pull her close to me, shower her with sweet nonsense cause she deserves it more than anything.

"Don't be sorry, love. But you gotta get used to it cause you really make me happy."

She wiped her eyes and nodded, "I will."

We stared at each other for a few moments before the sound of the telephone disturbed us.

I growled before turning around and answering, "Hello?"

"Jim, we got an urgent meeting like right now."

I let out a sigh, "Alright, I'll be there, see you, bye." I dropped the call and looked back at Sarah, "Babe... I gotta go."

She nods and sits up, "Go, have fun, enjoy."

"I will. I love you."

She smiled softly, "I love you."

"Call again?"

She nodded, "Yea." I stared at her once more before dropping the call, this will be a long week. I stumbled out of bed before walking over to the bathroom to take a quick shower.

Sarah;

I was in the kitchen, making breakfast. It was another rainy day here in New York. I was sipping on my coffee when I heard a knock on the door. I walked over to it and looked through the peephole, it was Chelsea.

I gasped and opened the door, "Chelsea, honey, are you okay?" I asked as I pulled her in for a hug. She shook her head and I let her in.

"I miss him." She said before letting out a sob. I instantly pulled her in for a hug, rubbing her back as she cried. I sat her down on the couch before rushing over to the kitchen to make her some hot chocolate. As I returned with her drink, I saw that she stopped sobbing but the tears still streamed down her face.

"Here," I said as I handed her the mug, "T-thank you." She replied as she looked up at me with the same Fallon eyes.

"Have you eaten breakfast?"
