After the Jimmy Fallon interview, we didn't plan on staying in New York for long.
I had already bought my ticket to Dallas and Steph, Joe and Sarah had already bought their ticket to LA.
"I'm gonna miss you guys."
"Don't start crying Jackie or imma cry."
"Sarah please, I'm too strong for tears."
"That's my girl."
The lady over the intercom informed the people of the airport that our plane was ready to board. I said my last goodbyes and left.

{Shawn}
"Shawn can you pass the bread?"
"Here you go."
Last week, Andrew told me a would have a week off. So I decided to come back home Toronto.
"So, hows Jacklyn?"
"I told you dad, we broke up."
"That's a shame. You two were really good for each other. I started seeing your good humor come out."
"Ha Ha."
"Why'd you guys break up?"
"I don't know dad."
"Manuel leave him alone. Let him enjoy his chicken in peace."
"I'm just interested Karen."
I smile at the both of them and continue eating the very good rotisserie chicken.
After I finished eating, I went upstairs and got on Twitter. I liked and retweeted, followed a bunch of people and checked my mentions. Most of them were of Jacklyn on The Tonight Show. I smiled and clicked on one that took me to the full interview.

"Welcome to the show Jacklyn!"
"It's good to be here Jimmy."
"Let's talk about you, how've you been after the breakup?"
"I've been great, yeah. I'm finishing off my degree in fashion and I'm looking into buying a house in Dallas now."
"That's great! Have you and Shawn talked recently?"
"No, I haven't really talked to him. I just don't feel like there's a need to. Although he did text me earlier saying good luck."
"That's awesome. I bet he's a caring boyfriend."
"He was the best."
"So why did you guys break up?"
"Like he said, we just wanted different things and we parted."
"I have to ask, did you hear the pregnancy rumors?"
"Yeah, I did. Thought it was very random. I think people just want me to be pregnant."
"I know, it's crazy. I guess it's cuz you're just always glowing."
"I think it's because I went to LA the other day."
"Why were you there anyways?"
"I was just visiting my friend Sarah."
"Let's move on. Have you heard his album yet?" This was not one of the questions that were sent.
"Yes. I heard it before it was released. Shawn wanted to make sure it was perfect and I thought it was the best album I've heard in a while."
"So you've heard this amazing ballad, 'Fallin' All In You'?"
"I thought it was the best one."
"Did you know it was about you?"
"No I didn't. When I asked him about it, he told me he had wrote it before our relationship."
"I don't know if you saw our show last night, but here's a clip about Shawn talking about this particular song."
-
"Twitter asked us to ask you, how do you feel about Shawn? Do you love him? Or did you love him?"
"Love? Well I don't know about that. Shawn's a very important person to me but I don't know if love is the right word. But he was everything to me."

My heart kinda breaks. I knew she didn't feel this way I've just never heard her say it.

At the moment, I was scrolling through a particular trend, #JacklynOnTheTonightShow. Yes it's a pretty long hashtag.
Many of them had hateful things to say like
@particularqueen:
Doesn't love him? Lmao what a bitch she's such a whore probably has another guy
Or
@fallingallinmary:
Shawn writes a song about her and she just throws that away, why doesn't she just die then?
Then there were your news outlets twisting my words:
@DailyMail:
Shawn Mendes' ex girlfriend claims he never loved him and never will. Click the link to read more!
@TheSunUK:
Jacklyn Black hints at her and Shawn Mendes' relationship being a stunt
@BuzzfeedUS:
Jacklyn Black never loved Shawn Mendes, but does he love you? Click the link to take a quiz!
@Enews:
"Love? Well I don't know about that." Jacklyn never had feelings for Shawn?!
I think it's crazy how I just said it didn't feel like love but he meant the world to me to yet they think he didn't mean anything to me. It's crazy. I stated something yet they still twit the words.
@JacklynBlack:
It's crazy how I say Shawn meant the world to me but people like to twist my words to say I never loved him🤔 ...
@JacklynBlack:
The truth is, he meant everything to me. We just didn't work out. Thank you for coming to my TED talk :)
