Jarbyn AU:- In which Jack and Corbyn have been dating for almost a year now. But Jack isn't an open person. He hides his problems from everyone even his boyfriend. Read on to find out how it goes.

Jack's POV:-
I lay in bed wide awake. I was thinking about my twin sister who had died two years ago. I really missed her. I wish she could come back. I sighed as I felt a tear slipped down my cheek. I rolled over and faced my gorgeous boyfriend and smiled at his beautiful face. Corbyn always made me feel a little better. But it still scared me. What if I lost him too? I had lost all my family members and I couldn't bear to lose anymore people I loved.

The thing is I never told Corbyn how I felt and I know it's stupid. I know I should tell him. But I just didn't want him to worry.

I closed my eyes amd tried to go to sleep. After closing my eyes for about ten minutes and still not falling asleep, I got up and looked at the time. It was 3 in the morning. I looked back to Corbyn and heard he soft breathing. He was a heavy sleeper so he hadn't woken up. I walked outside and towards our balcony, leaning against the railing thinking about my family and how changed my life would be if they were still here.

Although I loved Corbyn and I considered him family. Actually more than family. But there was always going to be an empty void, a huge space in my heart that could only be filled by my family and no one else.

I sighed again and made my way back to bed suddenly feeling sleepy again. Maybe it was the cool air of the night that helped relax my mind but for some reason I felt slightly better. I closed my eyes and drifted off to sleep with Corbyn's arms around me.

~Time Skip (A few days later) ~
The next few days followed both mine and Corbyn's everyday routine. I woke up in the morning to feel the bed quiet cold beside me. I sighed and got up, making my way downstairs. I sniffed the air and it smelled of bacon and eggs. Corbyn was making breakfast. I made my way inside tje kitchen and went over to Corbyn, wrapping my arms around him. He was shirtless. But was in an apron. But none the less he was hot.
"Hi Corbs", I whispered in a sleepy voice kissing his shoulder, pulling away slightly.
"Hi baby", he whispered back turning around to face me with the biggest smile on his face.
I smiled back as he wrapped his arms around me and pulled me close. He kissed me passionately before pulling away slightly, resting our foreheads together.
We looked into each other's eyes for a bit before I remembered the breakfast.
"Isn't it going to get burnt?", I said looking at it.
He just laughed and let go of me stirring the eggs in the saucepan.
We ate breakfast and got ready for our day. The rest of the day followed our daily routine of going to our separate works and then coming back home, cuddling with each other, watching movies and then going to bed.
We were laying in bed later that night talking about random stuff before we both fell asleep with me cuddled into Corbyn's chest and his arms wrapped around my waist. We were both only in our boxers as it helped us sleep well at night. We did have a blanket over us though.
I woke up about an hour and a half after we had both fallen asleep. I sighed. I had the dream again. Basically I had a dream everyday of me and family together, enjoying life and then the dream changed to them being trapped somewhere. It confused me everytime and kept me awake for a long time.
I sighed. I hadn't been getting much sleep since last month when I lost my brother who was the only alive person in my family besides me.
I got up and made my way to the balcony again to clear my mind. It always helped me to relax with the cool air. I leaned against the balcony railing facing towards the city light that shone so bright even in the middle of the night.
As I stood staring at the night, I felt arms wrap around me. I tilted my head to see a sleepy Corbyn with his eyes closed.
He opened his eyes and looked at me.
"Hey. Are you okay?", he whispered softly.
"Yeah. I'm fine", I said smiling at him"Just came to get some fresh air".
"That was a trick question", he said laughing.
"Huh?", I asked confused.
"You don't think I've noticed when you leave the bed late at night. When you come here everyday but won't talk to me about what's bothering you", he said softly."Come on Jacky. I deserve to know. Tell me what's been bothering you".
I sighed and turned towards him with tears in my eyes. He pulled me close and wrapped around his arms around me again.
"It's just... It's been so hard since Jo left", I whispered with tears filling up in my eyes. Jo was the name of my twin sister
"Oh baby", he whispered back pulling me even closer, wiping my tears away, with his thumb, as they started to fall."Don't cry, love".
I leaned my face on his hands which was still resting on my face, wiping the tears away.
I continued with my story, telling him how I had been feeling. He wrapped his arms tightly around me as I revealed everything with tears still streaming down my face. Once I was done, he grabbed my face and pulled it closer to his, kissing me softly. Immediately making me relax in his touch as I kissed back. He pulled away and looked at me.
"Baby. You should've told me sooner", he whispered.
"I know. I'm sorry", I whispered.
"Don't be", he said sighing.
He got on one knee and took out a ring. I knew he wasn't proposing because we both knew we were really young and I wasn't ready yet.
"Jacky. This is a promise ring and I want you to wear it everyday and remember the promise that you're making tonight. Jacky. This ring symbolizes my love and trust for you and I want you to do the same. So as you wear this ring. You accept that from today onwards you will share all your inner feelings with me. Tell me if you're feeling sad, happy and everything. And last of all letting me know as soon as you feel any of those emotions or want to talk about something. All I want for you is to be open up to me and I promise I'll do the same", he said looking me in the eyes.
I nodded my head slowly."I promise", I whispered".
"Good", he said smiling as he placed the ring on my left ring finger.
Then he took out another ring and handed it to me.
"I make the same promise as you and will wear this ring to fulfill my promise", he said softly.
I smiled and placed the ring on his left finger as well. He got up and pulled me close, wrapping his arms around my waist, kissing me softly before pulling away.
I rested my head on his shoulder as he pulled away. He rested his chin on my head. We stayed like that for a few minutes then decided to go inside and get some sleep.
As I got in bed again, I knew one thing. I could always count on Corbyn to make my troubles and problems go away. He always helped me relax. I should've told him sooner. I hadn't felt this relaxed in four, five weeks. And let me tell you that was one of the best nights sleep I had ever had,  followed by many many more.
