chapter seven:
I LOVE YOU

———

A few hours later.
Kelsey

I woke up at the sound of my alarm going off. I snoozed it and walked straight to the bathroom.

After my usual bath routine, I put my hair in a towel so it dries and laid on my bed watching Netflix.

Half an hour passed and my hair was now dry but all over the place, so I decided to straighten it.

I still had ten minutes before Jack would be here so I put on the clothes I had thrown on the bed. Some black leggings with an oversized nirvana t-shirt that me and Jacques bought together when we went shopping in LA. I also put on some Nike socks, cause I can't stand being bare footed.

"Kells! Jacques is here!" I heard my mom shouting and I quickly put my slippers on and headed downstairs. I even almost tripped over the stairs, but anyways.

As I was walking to them, I heard my mom talking with Jack. I approached them and when Jacques saw me, a big smile took over his face. I ran to Jack and collapsed in his arms. I was hugging him tight and so did he.

"Alright, I will leave you two alone so you can catch up. Kelsey, I'm heading to the agency for the rest of the day. I will see you tomorrow, okay?" Mom asked me and I nodded.

"Okay mom. See you tomorrow." I said and mom kissed mine and Jack's cheek.

"Bye Jacques, I'm so glad I saw you again."

"Me too, Ayesha." They smiled and my mom left the house. It was the two of us now.

"I missed you." He muttered and pulled me in for another hug. This time, he wrapped his arms around my waist and I wrapped mine around his neck. We stayed like that for a couple seconds and then, our faces were only a few inches away.

"Yo, I swear everytime I see you you're gettin' taller." He chuckled and I laughed.

"Mhm I will definitely beat your height then." I said and he furrowed his eyebrows.

"Yeah, right. You're twenty, you can't get taller." He said with a 'as a matter of fact' tone.

"You're saying that cause your five foot ten ass is scared." I teased him and he playfully rolled his eyes.

"You're actually right. I'm scared of your five foot seven ass." I lightly threw a punch in his chest and he smiled.

"Thank god you don't have those ugly grills on." I laughed.

"Hey! Watch your mouth when you're talking about my grills. They're lit." He raised his eyebrows.

"Uh huh, whatever you say." I said and he got one hand off my waist and put it on my hair, caressing it, not softly though, he did it like I was a dog.
"No, my hair!" I quickly said and he started laughing. He then let my hair go and slid his hand back in my waist again.

"You're goofy." I chuckled and we hugged again. I really missed him.

"Are you hungry? There's plenty of food in here." I asked him after pulling away from the hug and he shook his head.

"Nah, I grabbed something on my way here. Thank you though." He said and I nodded.

"Show me your crib, princess." He said and I chuckled.

"Let's go." I took his hand and we walked around the house.

After I showed him the whole house, we went to my room and laid on the bed.

"This is cozy." He was talking about my room.

"I know right? I always wanted a room like this one."

"I know. You used to talk a lot about it." We laughed and he got off his hoodie and laid next to me.

"Damn, we're matching." He said and I smiled as I looked at our shirts. I quickly thought about the time we were living in LA, and then I remembered his recent voicemail.

"Wassup? Why you so quiet?" He turned to look at me and poked my cheek with his fingers. But he stopped right away.

"Oh." He knew what I was thinking about and turned his head to look straight at the bathroom door.
"I guess it's time to talk about... that." He sighed.

"Look, I don't wanna pressure you to talk about it. I just felt bad because you wouldn't talk to me about it and you acted like everything was fine, and that hurt me, because you weren't really fine. You have many people that care about you, Jack. Don't be ashamed to talk to them, they will help you more than you know." I put my hand on his shoulder so he could turn and look at me. When he did as I wanted him to do, we were both looking each other in the eyes.

"I just want to help you get over whatever bad is happening in your life. I wanna be with you through your happy and sad moments. I care about you, Jacques. A lot." I said and he broke the eye contact and lowered his head.

"You've helped me countless times! Hell, you're even still keeping up with my toxic ass, no matter how many fights we're having for my behavior. I love that we're sticking around after all those hard times we're going through. I love how you make me feel like everything is going to be alright, when I'm not feeling good. I love your company. And I, love you." I put my hand on his cheek and lifted his head up.

A tear escaped from his eye and fell on my hand. I wiped it and he looked me in the eyes.
"I'm sorry." He sniffed and I nodded.

"It's okay. Just let me help you next time." I smiled and he nodded his head.

"I will." And with that, he wrapped his arms around me and I caressed his back. He pulled away when he stopped tearing up and looked down at his fingers.

"Kells?" He asked me, softly and I nodded.

"I love you too."
