Ennis' POV
I woke up before the sun rise, only to the sound of silence...once again. I should be used to it by now, but for a reason unknown, I'm not. Trying to work on the ranch was getting harder and harder by the day. Jack had taken over my mind. Everywhere I looked, I saw him standing there, in his boots and tight blue jeans, a button up shirt and a hat covering his jet black hair, but beneath it was his bright, beautiful smile along with his sparkling blue eyes. Anytime someone spoke to me, I would hear Jack's voice, so I would have to ask them to repeat themselves. But when I was alone, mainly at night, that's when I wouldn't have to fight it off. I allowed my mind to explore and go anywhere it wanted...and it always went to Jack. I would close my eyes and imagine if Jack was here with me. It brought tears to my eyes. I missed him more than anything, and I also realized that I loved him more than anything. That evening, I searched through my unorganized drawers for a blank postcard. I was lucky to find one. I scribbled down Jack's address, and then took advantage of the silence to think of what I should say. I could've poured my heart out, but a postcard couldn't hold what words I wanted to say. Instead, I wrote:
"Jack,
How about November? For you. I can meet you at pine cove.
Ennis Del Mar."
All I needed was a stamp, which I knew I didn't have at the moment, so I decided to wait until the morning before I mailed it. I placed my lips softly on the postcard; that way, I would sending my love to Jack.
