Abbie's POV:
I cut him off with my lips, and my lips alone.
Surprisingly, he kissed me back. I didn't think that he felt that about me as well.
Suddenly, it felt like a weight I'd carried my whole life had been taken off my shoulders.
I was truly in love with Jiro.
After the kiss, I smiled, and simply walked back into the party, leaving Jiro sitting in his chair, stunned.
I went home that night and dreamed of everything sweet and beautiful.
At school the next morning, we barely even talked at all, but we stared at each other throughout our class. At lunch, we hung out in the same group, but never alone, which meant that we didn't speak about the kiss.
I returned home with my sister, Ashleigh, and she asked me about it. Obviously she already knew. Jiro had probably mentioned it to her last night.
  The whole week we didn't exchange many words.
Jiro's POV:
  After the party and the kiss, Abbie and I only spoke a few words a day to each other, and it was within a group, never alone. I became slightly depressed, and it looked like she did too.
  Friday, after a whole entire week of not talking, she texted me, finally.
Abbie: Jiro...
Me: hey what's up abbie?
Abbie: jiro i'm so sorry...
Me: for what?
Me: the kiss?
Me: cause that's nothing to be sorry about;)
Abbie: why would i be sorry for that;)
Abbie: but it's something different jiro:(
Me: what happened?!
Me: Are you ok?!
    She didn't end up answering until about 20 minutes later to answer, but then, she sounded depressingly frantic in her messages.
Abbie: idk if i'm ok jiro...and ik you won't be ok after what i'm about to tell you.
Me: ok, say what you have to say!
Me: it's not like it's gonna kill me right!
Abbie: I'm moving tmrw.
   It hit me hard. Abbie, my first love, was moving away.
Me: where??
Abbie: connecticut:((((
Me: that's all the way across the country?!
Abbie: i know it's for something with my moms family!!
Me: ok. talk tmrw. i'll make sure to say goodbye and stop by before you leave?
Abbie: ok:) gnight jiro
  I decided to type the words that had been on my mind for weeks.
Me: I love you, Abbie.
  And surprisingly, she responded.
Abbie: I love you too jiro:)

Abbie's POV:
  I couldn't believe the news when I heard it.
"Mom, we can't be moving!" I cried. "We- we just can't be!"
  "I'm sorry, but we have to," Mom said, trying to be comforting. It really wasn't helping.
  I had to text Jiro.
We talked about it, and he promised to stop by my house that day, tomorrow, to say goodbye.
  He decided to end his part of the conversation with "I love you, Abbie."
     Those three words had run through my head so much the past week, since the kiss, and I just couldn't help but respond with,"I love you too jiro:)"
   I truly loved him. I'd dated people, and crushed on people, but I'd never felt about someone like I feel about Jiro. How this sudden love for him was possible, I still don't know to this day.
    Ash and I talked a bit, and she gave me advice on long-term relationships, like the one she was going to have to continue with her boyfriend, Jakob.
   The next day, around noon, we were packing up our moving truck with what seemed like hundreds of large brown boxes, when Jiro stepped up to the doorway I was about to walk through.
    Before anyone saw him, I yelled, "I have to get something from my room!" then dragged him into my room upstairs.
     It was so empty and abnormal, I barely recognized it, and I almost didn't realize that Jiro was hugging me. Not like a friendly hug, but a hug filled with care and love, a hug filled with passion.
   It then hit me that this may be the last time I ever see him. I pushed him away for a second, then kissed him one last time.
   "Jiro, I love you," I said. "I don't know what life is going to be like after I move."
   "I don't either," he replied. "But at least we know we'll survive whatever happens."
    I hugged him again and had just kissed
Jiro on the cheek when Ashleigh walked in.
   "Abbie...it's time," she explained. "I hate to ruin the moment between you, but it had to come down to this anyway I guess. Bye Jiro."
Ashleigh and Jiro were decent friends, and she hugged him.
As my family and I got into our small silver car, a tear slipped down my cheek, and dropped to the floor with the silence of a quiet breeze.
I watched him, standing there on our front walk, until he was no longer in sight.
We would have very limited internet connection throughout the trip, so I couldn't even respond to his seemingly urgent text messages.
All I could think about was him. Jiro, Jiro, Jiro. All I could think about was how he made everything right again. Why couldn't he make this right, along with every problem?
I missed him. Everything we did, how I should have talked to him more. I should have spoken with him about the kiss, not just left.
I couldn't stop reminiscing on the things I could've and should've done, and the things I did that I shouldn't have.
I love Jiro. I have to go back one day. My Spotify playlist was on shuffle, and conveniently, "I Don't Want To Miss A Thing" by Aerosmith began to play. The words replayed over and over in my head for the next hour.
"I don't want to close my eyes. I don't want to fall asleep, cause I miss you baby, and I don't want to miss a thing."
-Aerosmith, "I Don't Want To Miss A Thing," from the major motion picture Armageddon.

Well Jabbie fans, there you go. Now you have closure on what happens. I'm sorry to end this so soon, but I at least entered the story in the Watty's 2017!!!!!
For the last time, in Jabbie at least, Ily all soooo much and I thank you for your constant support of the fandom!
Last shoutout to the Yeet Squad. Ily guys so much!
For the final time, this book/fanfic wasn't meant to offend or hurt anyone. I started this book in the first place with a friend as a joke, but I only got more consistent on continuing the storyline, because the reads began to kick up a bit after each chapter. I'm sorry for all those who decided to take this personally, even if they weren't mentioned at all in the book, or barely mentioned (yes it happened).
ALWAYS REMEMBER. EVEN WITHOUT A CONTINUATION OF THE BOOK, THE JABBIE FANDOM LIVES ON!
