I sat on my seat on the plane to Miami where I had connecting flight to New Orleans. That's where they were shooting a new movie.

Finally, the day had arrived! I was excited that about 17 hours I'd be seeing Jai. It has been long way coming..

It was exactly one month, 3 days, 7 hours ago. Noup, not counting at all. I smirked, playing with my new passport in my hand.

Being apart from Jai was awful. Seeing all these photos and events he went, and people he spent time with.

Of course, going through media and seeing pictures and videos on Instagram made it all worse. But I remembered what Jai had said about it and sometimes Jai got mad that I let this all get to me despite his warning.

The worst panic hit me when the first photos of us started to appear in the media. "Jai Courtney love interest. Jai Courtney seen with a sexy brunette. Who's Jai Courtney dating? Is Jai Courtney married?" I thought through some of the titles I'd read. Jai hadn't commented anything yet.

Luckily I had a lot to do before going to him. Right the same day Jai left I went to apply for a new passport and sent out my resignation letter to my father's office. Never going back there. Then I bought every comfort food possible and went home to watch every movie with Jai casting. Sometimes I would pause the movie and just watch him from the screen. Some days Lily and Kat would come by and we would watch the movie together. And talk about stuff, Kat mainly about their honeymoon, Lily about Tom and work and me about Jai and packing and all the arrangements I hadn't yet done because I had been lazy and depressed.

Jai skyped me every day, at least once, despite the time zone differences. We also sent pictures and videos. I always answered his calls, even if I was at the grocery store or at a party. Sometimes he made me bootycalls, when he was drunk and horny. Saying things that made me blush hard and wishing he was with me.

This one time I had my gynecologist appointment, so I couldn't answer but called back as soon as possible. When he heard where I was I could sence pressure rising in his voice "Oh, gynecologist.. Um, is everything okay, babe?"

I hadn't thought it could make tensions between us so I was surprised "Yes, I- I had my annual check-up and uh.. doctor perscribed me contraception pills."

"Oh, okay. That's good. Taking care of yourself" he said sounding relieved but as soon as he realized his tone he said "Not that I don't want children. I do, but later in life. Just for a second I thought.."

"What?" I asked already knowing what's about to come up from there but still wanted him to sweat a little.

"..That you're pregnant or something." he said hesitatingly.

"Well I'm not and I'm glad that's clear now." I said and we continued talking about other stuff that had happened in that day. Mainly about how we missed each other and what dream I had seen and how preparations were going.

About a month after I had applied my new passport I got a confirmation that it was ready. So the next day I went to collect it and as soon I got it I took a selfie holding my brand new document and sent it to Jai. "Passport of Anna Courtney". he was excited cos he knew that soon we'd meet.

The same day I applied my visa. Which took time about a week to arrive. In that waiting time I booked my flight to New Orleans via Miami, gathered my stuff that I wanted to save and storage, cleaned apartment and started to pack my large suitcase and my backpack. I also planned to have a farewell party.

So my time away from Jai was thankfully very busy.

One long ass flight behind, in a few hours I see him. I thought while sending Jai a message that 'I've survived the long flight to Miami.

When I landed in New Orleans it took a long time in baggage claim. I was standing there pissed off by the time I was wasting when I could run to his arms. Finally I got my huge suitcase and dragged it through corridors in airport. There were lot of people walking different directions. As I stood on the escalator my eyes were searching Jai in the crowd standing at the arrivals terminal. At first I didn't saw him and was already panicking and going through different reasons why he wouldn't be there. But then I saw a guy in a denim jacket, black jeans and combat boots, baseball cap and sunglasses, holding a piece of paper. As soon as he saw me he turned the paper around and there was a heart. He looked me with his puppy eyes but when I was about 5 steps from him he grinned with his perfect teeth showing and took long quick steps to greet me.

We collided into a hug with such force that it punched the air out of my lungs. It was like running into the granite wall. But his embrace was gentle. He mumbled something to my neck and I started to cry silently.

He pulled back to see my eyes "Hey, hey. It's okay baby." He said between kisses "I'm so glad you're here..." he looked around and said "We need to go, the pratz are here." He took my hand and dragged my suitcase and we went to the car parked near the exit.

He smiled and took my hand to his while driving back to the hotel. Often he glanced at me, smiling wide. I could see he was happy that I was there.

At the hotel, when the elevator door closed, he kissed me passionately. When the elevator made a stop and he saw that this wasn't the floor we were staying and someone was about to enter, he grunted in my hair and pulled himself back and stood next to me.

He opened the door to our suite and walked in behind me. I admired the room, walking around smiling. I went to the bathroom and saw bathtub "Aww yess, a bath! I'm gonna spend a lot of time in here." I said excited. Suddenly Jai's hands slid around my waist, him breathing on my neck giving me chills. He started to peel off my clothes, breathing loudly. Oh my, he has his beast mode on. I thought to myself smiling, enjoying his action. I lifted my hands up so that he could pull up my shirt, wrapping my hands around his neck, running fingers through his hair. He removed my pants smiling while gritting his teeth. Oh yeah, he is full on wild! Then he slid his hand behind my knee making me moan and lose my balance. He pulled my legs on his hips and walked to the bed throwing me on the covers climbing quickly on top of me.

"You have no fucking idea.." he began but decided that its easier to show me, kissing me rough while unbuckling and removing his pants and put an end to our misery...
