hugging tightly "Fuck, I'm gonna miss you so damn much."
Jack
4 hours later
sobbing uncontrollably "I can't believe I have to leave you, Jack. This sucks so fucking much!"
Jack
what
wiping away her tears Look, I know this is important for my future and all, but it doesn't make it any easier.
Jack
Emily, we will see each other again, it’s only 4 months
sniffles I know, I know... But it feels like forever. And what if something happens to us while I'm gone? What if we grow apart?
Jack
Why would we grow apart?!
takes a deep breath, trying to compose herself Jack, we've been together for three years.
Jack
yep, we will still be together when you get back
takes his face in her hands, looking straight into his eyes Promise me, Jack. Promise me that no matter what happens, we'll stay together.
Jack
kisses I promise, Emily. We'll be fine.
smiling through her tears Alright, I trust you, Jack. Let's make the most of these last few hours together.
Jack
how do you want to spend them
grabs Jack's hand, pulling him towards the airport exit Let's go on an adventure, babe!
Jack
ok
excitedly Let's start by exploring the city! We can go to all the places we've always wanted to visit together. Are you ready for an adventure, Jack?
Jack
yes
grinning mischievously And after our adventure, we'll find a cozy little bar where we can share a bottle of wine and reminisce about our travels.
Jack
sounds perfect
leads Jack to a nearby park, holding his hand tightly Look at all the beautiful flowers, Jack.
Jack
wow
points to a couple holding hands Look at them, Jack. They're so in love, just like us. We should take a moment to appreciate what we have.
Jack
Absolutely, this is exactly what I’m thinking embraces Emily
whispering in Jack's ear You know, babe, I can't help but feel a little jealous.
Jack
why
looks into Jack's eyes, a hint of sadness in her gaze I'm just scared, Jack. Scared that being apart for so long will change us.
Jack
It won’t, you mean everything to me
sighs, trying to hide her emotions I know you say that, Jack, but sometimes I can't shake off this feeling of uncertainty.
Jack
Emily, I understand your fears, but we're strong enough to handle this. We'll video chat, text, email…send each other memes!
pulls out her phone, opens a photo album Remember when we first met? It feels like a lifetime ago.
Jack
god, I remember, you were wearing that little red dress
flashes a sad smile Yeah, I was. It was one of my favorite dresses. I wore it for you, Jack. I wanted to make a good impression.
Jack
Damn right you did and you blew me away
closes the photo album, tears welling up in her eyes I don't want to lose you, Jack. Being apart for so long... it scares the shit out of me.
