Just Friends 2 || j.g.

Epilogue

I laid with my head against Jack's chest as he put bubbles on top of my head.

"Guess who called me the other day?" I started a conversation, fidgeting with my fingers.

He hummed his response, running his hands down the sides of my arms.

"Sam." I exhaled.

I felt him tense up beneath me at the sound of his name "What?"

"Yeah, I told him I couldn't talk and he hasn't contacted me since." I shrugged.

"Did he say anything before you said that?"

"No. I was shocked that he even called. I told him and quickly hung up before he could say anything." I looked up at him.

"If he calls again, tell me. I'll deal with it." He clenched his jaw.

I pulled his chin towards me, attaching my lips to his. His body eased up as he rested his hand on my cheek. I snaked my hand behind his neck, deepening the kiss. I turned my body so the front of my body was against his. I sat up wrapping my legs around his torso as he rested his hands on my lower back.

I pulled away, smiling at him before reconnecting our lips.

"Let's play a game." I looked at him as he furrowed his brows.

"What game do you have in mind?" He rubbed my back, pulling the warm water up onto my bare back.

"21 questions." I smlied, biting my lip slightly.

"I mean, if you want." He shrugged.

"We don't have to." I pursed my lips the the side.

"No, no, we can." He smiled.

"Okay." I got off of him and moved to the other side of the tub.

"You can go first."

"Okay, um, when did you first realize you were in love with me?" I sat back.

"Hm, probably the first time we kissed. It was like a spark went off and that's when everything changed."

"Shit, was that when I kissed Sam and you 'punished' me?" I tilted my head back and laughed.

"Now that I think of it, I think so." He chuckled.

I lowered my head, letting out a few short laughs. "Why didn't you say anything to me after that?"

"I didn't want to ruin our friendship. You were honestly the only person that meant something to me. Yeah, of course I had my family, but after our kiss, you just meant so much more to me."

"Aw, Jack." I blushed.

"Okay, my turn."

"What are we having for dinner?" I asked as I walked out of the bathroom.

"I don't know what you're having but I want you." Jack winked in my direction.
