endearment (Jesse Lingard & Marcus Rashford)

The sequel | part 13

Delilah pov
I'm ready to leave and I am in the hallway of Marcus' house with my suitcase.
"I'll see you very soon" I say as I hug Marcus.
He smiles
"I hope so" he laughs as we pull out of our hug.
I hug Lucia next and she's close to crying
"Thanks for looking after our house whilst we were away" Lucia smiles wiping her small tears away
"Don't cry Lucia I really will see you soon" I reassure her.
All of a sudden I spot Jesse walking up Marcus' driveway towards the front door that is wide open ready for me to go.
"Right come on let's go" he says to me as he stops on the doorstep.
"What?" I ask tilting my head
"I'm taking you to the airport" he laughs shoving his hands in his pockets.
"Oh" I say as a smile creeps my face
"Thank you" I say taking my suitcase and stepping outside.
Jesse starts to walk down the driveway to where his car is parked.
I turn around to look at Lucia and Marcus before I follow him.
"Goodbye" I smile weakly
They smile and wave at me
Marcus mouthes 'goodbye' and Lucia is trying her best not to cry.
I turn back around to see Jesse leaning against his car waiting for me.
I take a deep breath and start to walk to his car with my suitcase.
I reach his car
"I'll get that for you" Jesse says taking my suitcase off me
"Thank you" I laugh
I get in the passenger side of his car and he soon appears in the drivers side.
The beginning of our drive is silent
"You know you can video call me whenever you want or need to Lils" Jesse says breaking the silence.
I look at him and smile
"Thanks" I say honestly
"Just with you saying the people aren't nice and shit, you can always talk to me okay?" He says turning down a road
"Means a lot Jesse. And this time I'm leaving I will definitely not lose touch with you" I say sadly
"Good because I can't wait another year" he laughs
I smile and turn away from him to look out of the window.
There's a short silence before he begins to talk again
"Will you ever come back home?" He asks
"I would come back tomorrow if I could... I just can't" I say sadly
"Why?" He asks inquisitively
"Because it's a long process moving Jesse" I admit looking down at my feet
"It didn't take you long to leave here though did it? You were gone in 24 hours" he spits
"Seriously?" I ask laughing
"Jesse the modelling company already had everything done for me, a house and a job. Of course it only took 24 hours because it was all already done, there was nothing I had to do" I say
"I'm sorry it's just..." he trails off
"What Jesse? I thought we had got over this" I say slightly annoyed
"I miss you okay?!" He says raising his voice
I look at his face. His eyes are welling up.
The car stops.
He turns to look at me and he's crying.
I place my hands on his cheeks
"Please don't get upset" I say getting upset myself.
"Well I've missed you the whole time you've been gone and now you've been back it's made me realise how much I truly need you and-" he says before I slam my lips against his.
After a short passionate kiss we stop and our foreheads stay connected.
I close my eyes as our foreheads just rest against one another.
"I'll move back Jesse" I whisper
"You what?" He asks shocked
"I'll move back to Manchester. As soon as I get to Paris I'll start packing and quit my job and I'll look for a property in Manchester" I say pulling my head away from his.
A smile plasters across his face as I say that.
He then throws his arms around me and hugs me tight.
"Oh by the way we're here at the airport" he says into my neck.
I giggle and we separate from our hug.
I smile at him and step out of the car.

"So this is it?" He says putting his hands in his pockets.
"This is it" I say taking a deep breath
"For now" he winks smirking
I smile and we both stare into each other's eyes.
He removes his hands from his pockets and places them on my waist.
He pulls me closer to his body and we share a long passionate kiss.
We eventually pull away, Jesse smirking and me smiling.
"I'll be home soon Jesse" I say taking my hands off his chest and stepping back.
"Can't wait" he smirks putting his hands in his pockets again.
I smile and I make my way over to where I need to go with my suitcase.
I stop before I disappear through my gate and turn around and i give Jesse a weak wave and he waves back smiling.
