-- One week has passed --

"Jeffrey's coming in an hour, his parents invited me to the airport so I'll see ya later." I tell my sister.

She nods.

I walk to the Miller's house and get into their car. We drive to the airport, about 10 minutes later, we get there.

"Oh he said he should be here in about five minutes." Cindy, his mother, says.

I smile, worried about his reaction to me.

After a couple of minutes I see him. I cover my mouth with my hands in shock.

He walks up to his mother and hugs everyone. He gives everyone a hug except me.

"Hey, jasmine." He says.

I felt as if I'd been stabbed, he never uses my entire name.

"Hey jeffrey." I force a smile.

I look at DePaul & ronan and they're very confused.

Like he kissed me when he left & comes back and says hey?

We all walk to the car, jeffrey sits next to me.

"So what's been going on lately?" He asks awkwardly.

"Not much." I answer softly, not wanting to make eye contact.

I turn to look at him and he's staring out the window. I missed him, but he's being an ass.

We finally get to the Miller's house and my sister is waiting at the front door. I smile.

We get off the car and jeffrey still hasn't made any eye contact with me. I sigh as I walk up to my sister.

"Hey jeffrey!!" She says with excitement. He hugs her.

Are you kidding me, omg!?

"Hey emily!" He gives her a big smile.

"So how have you and jaz been?" She asks.

"Oh, um okay I guess." He says looking at me then to the ground.

We enter their house and talk for a while. He gives everyone an a small gift, he gave me a $10 itunes giftcard. Meanwhile everyone got something of $75+.

I just smile the entire time. We finally leave.

"Hey, emily. I'm going to walk to starbucks okay?" I tell her.

"Okay that's fine, just be careful." She says.

She walks into the house. I begin walking the opposite direction, to starbucks.

-- JEMS POV--

I walk out of my house to find jaz. I see her turning at the end of the block. I walk up to her and give her a hug from behind.

"What the hell are you doing?!" She says angrily.

"I missed you. " I tell her.

"Did you really? Why did you ignore all my texts, why were you ignoring me in front of your family?" She says her voice cracking slightly.

"Im sorry, my boss believed it was stupid to let a girl get in the way of my dream so he blocked your number out of my phone." I sigh.

"Why were you ignoring me around your family?" She asks.

"Because I thought you'd be mad. And I do have a better gift for you, and I also wanted to be alone with you." I smile.

I take out a necklace that has "j&j" written inside a heart.

"This is for you, turn around." I say, she turns.

I put the necklace on her. She turns to me and smiles.

"I missed you too." She smiled.

I get really close to her and give her a long passionate kiss.

"So you wanna go do a younow?" I ask.

She nods. I intertwine our hands and walk her to my house. We go upstairs to my room.

I turn on my computer and log onto younow.

"Okay you ready?" I ask her.

"Yeah." She smiles.

"Hey guys it's jeffrey and jaz. I'm back in boston whooO." I laugh.

Jaz just smiles and waves. Comments are coming like a wave, most of them asking if we're dating.

"Well if you guys want to know if we're dating, let us show you the answer." I smirk.

I walk up to jaz and sit beside her. I put my hands to her hips and give her a really long kiss.

I go back to my laptop.

"So, whatcha think." I laugh.

All the comments begin blowing up.

--30 minutes later (jaz's pov)--

"Okay guys, I'll go live some other time, and yes, jaz will be with me." Jeffrey smiles to his computer as he ends his broadcast.

"Okay so whatcha wanna do?" Jeffrey asks me as he shuts his computer.

"I mean, idk. I never thought I'd date my bestfriend." I laugh.

"Well it happened. I'm here. We love each other. Everyone knew it was going to happen." He smiles.

I nod.

He gets closer to me and kisses me softly. He smirks.

"Whatcha doing?" I laugh.

"Nothing just embracing your beautifulness." He smiles.

"I don't think that's a word, but thank you." I smile and give him a hug.
