Jason's POV

This was it, her assignment was over and now Salem was safe. At least for the moment we were. Still part of me couldn't accept it. I really loved her. Every time I awoke in the morning my first thoughts were of her. Could I really just let her go? She admitted to us once she left that our memories would be erased of her. That was something I definitely didn't want. Last night we did manage to bury the bodies of the true witches and I watched as she binned them to the earth. Now my mind was running wild, laying here beside her I couldn't help but watch her as she slept.

"Isn't there anyway we could be together?" I question her knowing she wouldn't wake up and give me an answer.

Sitting up in bed I take out my sketch pad and begin to draw her for what feels like the hundredth time. Looking through my book I saw most of her faces, even a few of her mad faces which were enough to scare anyone even myself. She was an angel in my eyes. An angel that would leave me today.

"I don't want you to leave, I know it's selfish of me but I can't help but feel like this." I say as I watch the sun begin to rise and know that my time with her grows even shorter.

Just as I turned to rise I heard what could only be described as a beeping sound. Looking around I found the source of the noise, it was Abigail's watch or at least that is what she told me it was. Picking it up I somehow must have activated it.

"Abigail?" I hear a male voice call out her name.

"No, this is her husband, Jason. Who may I ask are you?" I question the voice.

"Oh dear, well I am Fred I work with your...er...wife? Either way I need you to wake her immediately I have dreadful news and must inform her at once." the man named Fred tells me.

Going to Abigail's side I begin to lightly wake her. Her eyes open and she rubs the sleep away from them as she looks at me confused. Handing her the watch she seems to understand what she means. I assume they are talking about her returning home now but I can't bare to hear that now. Standing I walk into the kitchen and begin to cook hoping that will distract me. As I prepare breakfast I just make eggs and some bacon as I can sense someone behind me. Looking over my shoulder I can see Abigail looking at me and I can see tears in her eyes. What in the world happened?

"What is it?" I ask ignoring the breakfast as I walk up to her and hold her in my arms. "Love tell me what's wrong?"

"My friend...Hannah...she never woke up. Fred said she didn't make it. She died Jason." Abigail tells me as she wraps her arms around me and cries into my embrace.

I didn't know who Hannah was but I could tell she was important to Abigail or else she would not be crying about her untimely death. Abigail had never been like this, she was always strong and stubborn but a part of me was happy that she allowed me to see her like this. After all this meant that she trusted me. I hug her close to me and allow her to cry for I had no words to say really.

"I have no one now." Abigail says and my heart breaks for her.

"That's not true, you have me." I say as I look down at her and cup her face with my hands. "I wasn't lying Abigail. I do love you and I will do anything to be with you."

Abigail looked at me either shocked or that I was crazy but then she did something even I didn't see coming she leaned in and kissed me. Pulling my head close to hers I was not going to argue with her logic at this moment. Her kissing me was all I wanted and though I didn't think she ever would I was very happy that she did.

Looking up to me I could see her eyes were still tearful but she smiled at me and then looked at me almost as if she were going to ask me something.

"Come with me." she said dead serious looking me right in the eyes.

Go with her? To the future? Was there even a way for that to happen? I really didn't have anything or anyone beside Abigail to keep me here in this time period that is. So what was stopping me? Grabbing her a bit roughly I kiss her as I pick her up and spin her. I didn't care what happened as long as I was with her. Standing her back on the ground I put my hand in her hair as I caress her head. I would always care for this woman no matter what I had to do.

"Fred did say I needed a new partner...could you do that Husband?" she questioned me and just he calling me husband made me smile brightly.

"That's the first time you actually called me Husband and meant it." I tell her as I feel her put her hand on my cheek looking deep into my eyes.

"Right beside you is where I belong, from this moment on." she says as we meet each other half way.

After a few moment into our kiss her watch goes off again. I could tell she didn't want to answer it but she pulled away and smiled a shy smile to me as she answered it.

"Ready for your next mission? Cause I have to get your new uh husband here asap to get him in the system you know." Fred says interrupting the good moment.

"Husband has a name you know...It's Jason." he tells Fred who just chuckles as if it were a joke.

"Yes we'll be on our way. Just give us ten minutes." she says as she turns the watch off and go back to kissing me.
