love no longer - pt. II

It had been 3 months since Jake and I broke up, it still hurts to think about him, but the quarantine is coming down today, I'd like to see him, just to make sure he's ok.

I rode in the police car with Lex, who was going to be helping pull down the gates and direct the cranes to get the cargo containers onto the semi-trucks.

When we got to the site workers were already there working to shut down the electrical fence and remove all of the crates.

I could see people from the other side, police and other officials making sure the crowd was controlled. I looked around, trying to spot Jake.

"Start moving the crates out of here." Lex yelled and semi-trucks began to pull away with all the crates on the back.

Many people began to get anxious, the tension in the air was sharper than a knife, I wanted the fence down just as much as everyone else.

All of a sudden the fence fell, people began to run to each other, becoming reunited with their families, it was almost in slow motion.

People were yelling and crying, bodies whirled past me, connecting with others from the other side, I looked around and my eyes connected directly with no other than, Jake.

Tears began to well up in my eyes, he ran towards me, a kid connected to his hand. He stood in front of me, but I didn't move, I didn't breathe, I didn't blink.

I just stared, into his eyes, around his face, which was covered in facial hair, he looked aged, he looked sad.

"y/n, i-i don't know what to say." Jake said winded.

"you don't have to, there's nothing to say, I just came to make sure everything went smoothly." I said pointing to the fence lying on the ground.

"oh yeah, makes sense, well everything went smoothly." he laughed awkwardly.

"so uh, who's this?" I asked gesturing to the little boy.

"oh, this is Quentin, he's Katie's son." He said and Quentin waved at me.

"oh, well where's Katie? I haven't had a chance to meet her yet." I said.

"you won't get to, she got infected last month, and didn't make it." Jake sighed.

"oh my god, I'm so sorry to hear that, it must've been hard." I said, genuinely sad for Quentin.

"it was, but my mom always told me to be strong, and that she'll see me again." Quentin smiled and I smiled back.

Katie sounded like a good person, had to be to have caught Jake's eye.

"well, it was nice meeting you Quentin, uh Jake, it was good to see you're doing well. I went back and cleaned the house and made sure I got all my things." I said and he gave me a painful look.

"oh, you didn't have to do that yet, we could've talked before you cleared everything." Jake said.

"no we didn't, you made up your mind and so did I, Jake there's nothing else to discuss."

"I missed you, I thought I would die in there, I didn't want to die alone, I leaned on her and she leaned on me too, there was no other choice, I couldn't talk to you, couldn't see you, I wished she was you." Jake said to me, making my heart stop.

"And I wished you were here, too. I was alone, I couldn't see you either, but I didn't throw myself at the first man and forget about you, I was waiting for you." I barked back, making him blink for a minute, he seemed dazed.

"are you even listening?" I asked him and he looked me in the eyes.

He leaned quickly and caught my lips, it's almost like my heart exploded, every inch of love I'd ever had for him pulsed through my veins.

"I know you were waiting for me, I was wrong to put you through this, I just didn't want you to be sad for me if I died, I wanted you to hate and despise me, I didn't want you to feel guilty for anything." Jake whispered and a tear rolled down his cheek.

"Jake, if you were to die, a part inside me would, too. My heart belongs to you, my love has only ever been for you. I would never despise or hate you. I love you." I said and grabbed him, pulling him towards me.

"I love you, too y/n." Jake said before kissing me again.
