Chapter 49

Emily POV

In all that has happened, I am mostly worried about Peter. He is completely broken, he won't eat, he barely sleeps, all he does is hope she will someday somehow wake up. God, I miss her. The way her smile lit up a room, the times when we would go to the beach or the mall and just hang out. She would have been a great aunt. 

I wish we could go back in time and prevent Newt from getting out of hand. If only we had stopped Thomas and the others from leaving in the first place. If only, if only, if only! But we can't dwell on the past. 

We have to- no we must move forward. I know it will be hard and I am probably lying to myself right now, but... skulking around doing nothing that is the one thing Jakie wouldn't have wanted. I think about knocking some sense into Peter but, what will it do? 

I direct my attention back to the dishes, washing all my kid's bottles and utensils by hand. You can't be too safe with germs, right? 

Peter POV

Three Days Later

I sit by the bed where Jakie's dead body lays. She almost looks peaceful. I hold her hand still not wanting to let her go. She's not dead, she can't be.

I almost finally walk out of the room finally moving on with my life... 

When suddenly she gasps walking up with a start, she starts hyperventilating looking around the room rapidly. Her breaths slowly calm down and she meets my eyes. Tears streaming down my face, I almost don't believe it.

"Y-You're a-alive?" I breathe rushing back to her bedside. Jakie sobs and wraps her arms around my neck as we cry together both happy and sad tears.

"I'm here... I'm right here and I'm never letting go." She whispers into my ear.

I grab her face and smash my lips to hers, needing the feeling of us.

"As much as I'd like to continue this, where are the others?" She breathes breaking the long lasting kiss.

"Come on," I say grabbing her hand leading her down in the kitchen.

Once I walk down the stairs they all stop talking as I haven't left that room in three days. There's eyes widen as Jakie trails behind me.

"JJ!" Emily screams crashing into her giving her a bone-crushing hug.

"Hey." She hugs back.

"I don't understand... How are you alive?" Isaac questions, Jakie shakes her head not knowing the answer, before Isaac rushes over to her enveloping her into a loving hug that makes my jaw clench. I can tell Jakie was a bit uncomfortable with the hug. She makes her way around reuniting with everyone. 

"I-I... something's not right..." Jakie says oddly.

"What do you mean?" Dean asks.

"I feel like I lost one of my senses, I feel empty." She continues.

"I'm sorry, but at least you're alive," Scott adds.

"Yeah..." She trails off standing next to me. It was about 11:30 pm and everyone is pretty tired.

"I think we're all gonna turn in," Sam announces for everyone, and without a second thought, the others head upstairs, clearly exhausted.

Jakie and I head back up and as soon as the door closes I attack her lips. She wraps her arms around my neck and deepens the kiss. I grab her hips pushing her onto the bed hungrily.
