Bad luck

Chapter six

I woke up to the sound of my alarm clock ringing and i slapped it about six times until it finally decided to shut up. I sat up and hanging on my closet door was a beautiful sun dress that i had never seen before in my life. My mom walked in and smiled,

"I wanted you to look special for the coming home of Jake" i got up and gave her a tight hug and smiled. My mom walked out and i quickly but carefully took off the dress from the hanger and threw it on my body. It looked amazing. I cant believe i get to see jake today too.

My phone read 9:43 am and Jake would arrive by 11. I sped into the bathroom and brushed my teeth, did my hair nicely and made sure my makeup was on point. I sprayed Miss Dior perfume on my collar bone and smiled at myself in the mirror. I rushed down the steps and read the clock: 10:29.

We had about a half hour to get to the airport. I couldnt even hold in my excitement. Jake was finally coming home!!!

*******

I was walking into the airport when my phone starting shaking uncontrollably. It had a picture of Jake holding me. My excitement almost bursted.

"Hello?" i asked

"Hey babe i just landed at gate 11" jake replied.

"Alright ill be there in two minutes" i said. We said goodbyes and my mom, Jakes mom and I rushed to the gate he was at. We watched a line of marines come out of the small hallway from the jet. Last but not least was Jake.

He dropped his bags and ran over to me. He picked me up by the waist and spun around. He put me down and kissed my lips. I noticed that jake had a lot of scars on his arms and face and legs.

Tears filled my eyes. I couldnt believe it. He was back and staying back.
