drunk marriage | jachary [✔️]

17) phone call

two days later

zach

"hello?" i answered my phone. the person at the other line spoke and i easily recognized who it was, "this is zach, right?"

"this is him," i sat down in the nearest chair. jack had gone out to get some food for the two of us, so i was alone in the hotel for a while.

"great, i just wanted to let you know that the divorce has been confirmed. please come in as soon as you can to sign the papers, thank you!" he hung up the phone before i could say anything.

my mood dropped instantly. why was i so upset now? just two weeks ago i wanted to get divorced.

"hey, babe!" jack came into the room with a bag of chipotle. he instantly noticed i was upset, "what's wrong?" he dropped the food on the table and rushed over to me.

"um, the divorce place called, we need to go in right away to sign the papers," i tried to act excited but i couldn't.

"well, that's great!" jack placed his hand on my knee, "why are you so upset."

"because i liked being married to you. i know it wasn't official but just thinking i was married to the jack robert avery made me feel like i accomplished something," i shrugged.

"aw, baby," jack hugged me, "i want to be married to you, too. but think about it."

"don't you want to have a real wedding? with our family, friends, people we know? don't you want me to propose to you with an actual ring?"

"well, yes of course," i smiled, imagining everything he said.

"exactly, now let's go get divorced," jack grabbed my hand and we left the hotel, forgetting about our chipotle on the table.

"perfect! now you two just sign right there and you're good to go!" he slid the divorcement papers towards us.

i looked at jack with a smile on my face. he leaned over and pecked my cheek, "ready?"

i nodded and signed my name on the first line. i handed jack the pen and let him sign his name on the second line.

"we did it," i sighed, "thank you for helping us with everything," i said to the guy on the other side of the table.

"anytime, just don't get drunk again in vegas!" he laughed as jack and i walked out of the room, hand in hand.

"you know, zach?" jack said while entering the elevator.

"yeah?" i replied.

"it's so crazy how we became a couple through a drunk marriage," jack laughed.

i laughed a long, too, "now let's get back to the hotel! the chipotle is probably cold by now."
