Jack was staring at me with a smile spread across his face. "What?" I could feel myself blushing so I tried to hide my face from him. He kissed my ear and tightened his grip around me.

"I am so stupid." He finally breathed. I was confused at to what in particular he was stupid for because he has a lot of reason to feel stupid. I looked up at him and furrowed my brows.

"I lost the best thing I ever had." He said, his smiling fading. Instantly I thought he was talking about Kelly so I frowned. I knew it was too good to be true.

I tried to get off of Jack but he held on tight to my waist. "Hey where are you going?" He moved my head so that I was looking at him. "Jack if you love me say so but don't go around messing with my head." I blurted out and now he looked confused.

"Bria, I was talking about you," he shifted his position and he grabbed my hands. "I was such an idiot for ever letting you go. You really are the best thing that has ever happened to me no matter what I say. I love you and will always love you."

I started to tear up and Jack wiped the tears that fell with his thumb. I laid my head on his chest and he stroked my hair. I felt safe. Better yet, I felt at home.

"Jack," I was creating mini circles on Jacks chest with my finger, "You have to break up with Kelly before this turns into something more." I didn't want to look at Jack because I feared seeing his reaction.

Jack remained quiet for several minutes. I feared he was planning on ways to murder me or yell at me, but he stayed quiet.

When he finally spoke he said "I will, I will."

I felt at ease as soon as he said that. I was nervous Kelly would take the news badly and try to hurt Theo. She cannot be trusted and I wouldn't put hurting an infant past her. No one else saw the pure evil I saw every time she stepped into a room.

None of her intentions were good, no matter who said they were. Kelly was the type of evil that didn't show it to anyone. She was a master at hiding her true self. She only showed her true colors to the people who she hated the most but knew no one would believe. Her sweet girl front fooled most people but it sure didn't fool me.

I snapped out of my thoughts when Jack moved. "Oh sorry," I got off of Jack and he looked at me. I couldn't help but smile. He was so beautiful and I loved him.

"Why are you sorry?" He questioned as he pulled me closer to him. I looked into his eyes and we had a staring contest. He won, of course but my reward for losing was a kiss from the hottest guy on earth.

"You could have told me to get off of you." I laughed but Jack wasn't laughing. He looked serious. I felt myself shrinking in my own skin. I hoped whatever he was thinking didn't have anything to do with me, or anything negative about me at least.

"Why would I do that?" His voice serious and quick. I felt stupid and closed my eyes. Jack kissed my forehead and wrapped his arms around me. "I would never ask you to get off of me. Not even if you're crushing me. I want you on me all of the time." He whispered seductively.

I giggled slightly which caused Jack to smile. I saw his smile once I opened my eyes after he spoke since what he said was absolutely ridiculous.

"You're so adorable." I smiled at Jacks remark and then I kissed Jack. We kissed for a long time but it felt as if it were mere seconds. When we pulled away Jack kissed my forehead and said good night. "I love you." He said before drifting into his deep deep sleep.
