You Should Stay

•Jake Gyllenhaal Fanfiction•

The 3 C's in Life:
Choice, Chance, Change.
You must make the choice to take the chance if you want anything to change.

After 15 years of living with a mother addicted to every drug in the book, 3 years of being tossed around from foster home to foster home, 2 years of living with an abusive boyfriend, and 2 year of living in a women's shelter Millie had a little luck and got a job working at a café in the Upper East Side. To most people her life isn't stable or even close to being successful but to her it's a million times better than it was 3 years ago. It's the best it has ever been and ever will be.

Jake has years of success in the business of acting and years of failure in the business of dating actresses. Because of that he feels like his choices in life were so mixed up. He made the right choices in his career but he never could hold onto a relationship. Women came and they went and he gave love to each one but he never really loved any one woman. He didn't know what else he could do but just keep working. Maybe the whole settling down thing wasn't for him. One night stands and year long relationships was all that was meant for him to have. He wasn't looking looking forward to that but if that's all he could have then he just has to accept it.
