Scars Left Untold

Oops

It's now March and let me just say, holy shit has a lot happened. School is now online due to corona. I do zoom calls with my classes and normally Jack is on a call with someone, be it his producers, the boys or his family. But today's call was different.

We were in the middle of our stretches when Jack comes down the stairs. I smile at him and he goes to the kitchen. He comes back a few moments later he comes back and hugs me from the side and kisses me.

I don't complain, but I know the secret has just been released. I pull away.

"Jack." I say smiling ever so sweetly at him.

"Yes baby?" He says.

"I'm on a class call." I say looking at my computer and then back at him. His eyes go wide, he looks at the computer where my second hour students no longer where several feet away, but rather close up to the screen staring at the exchange, some students even recording it.

"Shit." He says. I start laughing and go up to my camera.

"Mrs.Thomson, is that your boyfriend?" Briley, one of my favorite students says with a chuckle.

I smile and laugh going towards the camera, leaving Jacks embrace. "Yes he is. Come say hi, honey."

Jack slowly walks over and puts his arms around my waist, slightly hiding behind me.
"Holy fuck, is that who I think that is?" Kendall, another of my favorite students.

"Hi." Jack nervously waves into the camera.

"Jack Avery?" Adriana, yet again, another one of my favorite students says.

"Yes ma'am." Jack says nodding with a smile.

"You go Mrs.Thomson!" Kendall says. I laugh and so does jack.

"How about we end the call here today." I say nervously. The class doesn't argue and we end the call.

"Welp." I was closing my laptop.

"Now they know." Jack says laughing picking me up of the ground and spinning.

"Jack!" I say shocked, but I laugh. He puts me down. I turn to face him.

"I love you." He tells me. My eyes go wide and I'm utterly shocked. "Fuck. I didn't mean to say that, sorry, I-"

I cut him off quickly by kissing him.

"I love you too." I tell him. He smiles at me and I know that even while the worst thing is happening, he can and will still make me smile. Even if it is the end of the world.
