vanessa thomas
it was the first official morning of jack and i being apart for the first time in a week and a half, as well as being an official couple. i rubbed my eyes and turned over, shutting off the alarm that i had set for myself since i had a lot to do today to prepare for school tomorrow. immediately, i saw two new messages from jack. both of them from two hours ago, seeing as toronto is an hour ahead of omaha time.
jack
morning babygirl
miss you lots, hope you have a good day
my heart fluttered at his text messages, a smile forming on my face as i typed back a response.
vanessa
morning handsome, have a good off-day today and enjoy toronto
call you later?
placing my phone back on my bed, i get out of the comfortable warmth and walk to the nearby washroom. i brushed my teeth, my hair, my face and put deodorant on before heading downstairs where i heard the television.
"hey ness" my brother greets me with a smile. brandon has always been that stupid morning person that you just want to strangle because of how happy they are.
"morning" i reply with a grumble, heading into the kitchen and making a light breakfast. not being a morning person also consists of not having a huge appetite. i hate big breakfasts, so i usually just have a bowl of fruit. it's great.
brandon walks into the kitchen and leans on the doorframe, "so, how's the boyfriend?"
the thing with brandon is he's protective, very. im his little sister and he knows that our dad doesn't give a rat's ass about what's going on in any of our lives. so he takes over that position in my life.
"he's good, they're in toronto now" i respond, "how's bethany?"
"she's okay, i haven't heard from her this morning" he informs me, seeming slightly worried, "anyway, when are you going to tell mom and dad about you and jack?"
the dreaded conversation with my parents, oh lord.
"not right now, bran. the last thing i want to do is tell them im dating a guy who's touring the world and how much i miss him because we're long distance at the moment. i feel like they'd get a bad feeling about him and i dating because of his travelling and touring" i explain, shrugging as i cut up an apple.
he nods, "i think you're overthinking it, ness. he seems like a super nice guy and they already know and like him."
i shrug, "just because they know and like him doesn't mean they would approve of me dating him."
"who cares? they don't approve of beth" brandon shrugs, taking one of apple slices.
as he does that i glare at him, "yeah, they don't like her at all. does that not bother you?"
he shakes his head, "the only opinion that matters is mine."
my brother was one hundred percent right and i hated that.
"what about bethany? does she care?" i ask, never asking brandon about this topic.
he shakes his head, "she gets nervous, but i reassure her. she doesn't like being around them, but she does it for me."
i hope that wouldn't happen with jack.

my phone rang, jack's id popping up. i quickly answer, waiting for his face to show up on the screen. when it did, i smile wide.
"hey handsome."
jack smiles, laying back in the hotel bed while holding his phone, "hey princess, how's your day been?"
"so busy" i yawn, "i woke up when i texted you this morning and have been doing so much since."
he nods, "i bet you have."
"how's the day off?" i question.
"relaxing. johnson slept in, i couldn't sleep in. nate and sammy went out exploring, while johnson and i went out to eat" he explains his day so far, seeing as it was two in the afternoon for him and one in the afternoon for me.
i nod, "that sounds nice. what are you guys going to do tonight?"
he shrugs, "absolutely no idea. what about you, what are you going to be doing?"
"get ready for back-to-school tomorrow. shower, pack my bag, think about what im going to wear" i reply, thinking about all that i have to do.
"i really miss you" jack states out of the blue, causing my face to fall since we had yet to have this discussion.
"i know, i miss you too" i reply with a glum expression.
he looks away from the camera, his eyes seeming to glaze over, "jack, don't get emotional."
he bites his lower lip and looks back at me, "how the fuck am i going to be able to go five weeks without you?"
i chuckle, "jack, come on. we have done it before, we can do it again. at least now you know that you're coming back to me for sure, unlike before."
"yeah, at least i know you're mine for good" jack states with a cocky smirk on his face.
my eyebrows raise, "your attitude sure changes when you're cocky."
jack laughs, "shut up, you love it."
