You Had Me At Hello

"Jaack?" I drunkenly giggled to him as we sat round the campfire
"Rebecaaa" he said back, smiling. He wasn't as drunk as I was
"I missed you" I giggled again
"And I missed you too" he replied, leaning down and kissing my cheek
"Seriously. We don't get another miss you?" Jeremy whined.
"I missed you too, silly" I said, getting up and trying to walk over to him to hug him. I stumbled and Gaskarth caught me.
"I think someone needs to sleep" he laughed.
"Aww what?" I said, upset
"Yeah. You're wasted" Zack agreed. "Jack, can you take her?" He said
"Okay" Jack said and walked over to me and led me to the tent.
"Jack. Can I tell you something?" I asked as he unzipped the tent. I crawled in and got to where my bag was
"Yeah Rebecca? What's up?" He asked me, pulling my blanket over me
"I like you Jack" I said before kissing him
"You don't mean that, you're drunk" he sighed after he pulled away
"I do mean it" I said, sitting up. "Why wouldn't I?" I must've sounded annoyed
"Rebecca. Just sleep for a night and think about what you said and just done in the morning" Jack said before walking out of the tent and zipping it up. I made sure the tent was zipped before I let a tear fall from my eyes and slowly fell asleep.

*Jack's P.O.V*

"Hey man, what's up?" Alex asked me as I walked back to everyone. I was walking back with my hands on the back of my neck. I shook my head and sat down. "Dude. Come here" he said, leading me away from everyone. "What happened?"
"She kissed me Alex" I said
"Why are you so down about that? You like her" Alex said, confused
"She's wasted Alex. She won't mean it. She'll forget that she kissed me in the morning. Alex, man, I really like her. I've never felt this way about anyone. Not even Hayley, what do I do?" I sat down on the root of a tree and put my head in my hands.
"How do you know she won't mean it? Jack, she does like you too. She told me earlier. I know bud, I know" Alex sat down beside me
"I don't know what to do. I kissed her and was annoyed that she didn't kiss me back. Now she kisses me and I don't kiss her back. What the fucks wrong with me?" I punched the tree and blood trickled down my knuckles
"Wow. Well, first we're cleaning that" Alex said, pointing at my hand. "Then you're going to sleep on it and talk to Rebecca tomorrow" he already decided what was happening. I was fine with that. We walked back to the guys and they asked what happened so we just told them then we all went to bed.

(Next morning)
*Rebecca's P.O.V*

I woke up with a familiar feeling in my stomach. Shit, I was gonna puke. I got up and ran out of the tent and into the bit that was full of trees and puked.
"You okay?" Jeremy laughed, rubbing my back as I threw up. I just shook my head and continued. "It's okay. I'm here" he said, still rubbing my back. After I was done he gave me a tissue and I wiped my mouth. He opened his arms to me and I fell into them.
"I feel like shit" I mumbled. He laughed and pulled me into a closer hug. "It's also too light. I don't like it" I added
"Drama queen" he laughed and pulled me towards the tent. We sat outside just talking for a while and one by one everyone started coming out of the tent. I was feeling fine till I seen Jack and remembered what happened last night, I still had his hoodie on too, I excused myself and ran to the trees again. I didn't puke this time, I just sat thinking till I was interrupted.
"Becca?" Jack asked, I turned round
"Hi" I quietly said
"Do you remember anything last night?" He asked me
"Emm...well, I remember starting to drink then I can't remember what happened after but I remember what happened in the tent" I said, again quietly.
"And?" Jack walked over to me and sat beside me
"And what?" I looked up at him
"Did you mean it?" He wasn't looking at me, he was playing with his hands
"Jack. What the fuck happened?" I asked, shocked as I seen a bandage round his fist. "And yeah, I did"
"I got mad at myself last night" he said, he still wasn't looking at me. "So I came here and punched that" he pointed to the tree. "So, what are we gonna do about it?"
"Why did you get mad at yourself Jack? You had nothing to get mad at" I hated seeing him like this. I made him like this, I didn't kiss him when he kissed me but when I was drunk I kissed him and he didn't kiss me. "Jack..." I started before he pulled me into a hug
"Because. I just did" he said into my neck. "Rebecca. Listen, I know this sound like a fucked up crush but it's not. I do really like you. Those five years we didn't see you were shit. Yeah, I had a girlfriend but I didn't like her like I do you. When Zack told us you had a boyfriend when you told him I was devastated. You have no idea. But seeing you again made me like you even more" Jack said all of this into my neck and I just listened
"Jack, why didn't you tell me that summer?" I asked him, staring into space
"Because I was scared you didn't feel the same way" he admitted
"You told me at Matty's party" I said
"Yeah, but I guess I just got tired of waiting. I just got jealous in case you and Matty got close" he eventually said into the air and not my neck. I turned round to look at him, directly in the eyes
"You should've just told me. I couldn've done this earlier" I laughed before kissing him. This time, he kissed me back. I smiled into it and he did too. "And I'm also still not drunk" I said, pulling away. He laughed then looked up at me
"So. What are we?" He asked me
"Do we need to be labelled?" I asked. He shrugged then laughed
"I guess not. Come on, we better get back to them" Jack pushed me up and took my hand before we walked back to everyone.
