Sorry about the mess

The taxi pulled up to the apartment complex and I breathed in and out all the way up the stairs and in front of the door.

I swallowed and was about to knock but brought my hand back down to my side. I bit my lip and put it back up again, closing my eyes and knocking softly.

I was nervous as hell.

I was shaking and I was biting on my lip. I breathed in when the door opened and revealed a shirtless Jack.

"Layla!" He ran to me and pulled me into his chest and I felt tears coming. I made them go away and pulled away from him. "I'm so happy to see you again. I would've picked you up at the airport."

I gave him a weak smile, "It's alright." I swallowed, "Um, can we talk?"

He nodded and I left my suitcase out in the hall, I didn't know if I'd stay or not. I walked into the apartment and it was a complete mess.

"Sorry about the mess"

There were food cartons everywhere and his clothes and boxers all over the floor.

I moved over to the couch and sat down, he sat next to me but I moved away and faced him.

"Why?"

He sighed and looked down at his lap. "Never in my life have I ever meant to hurt you. I regret it so much and I did right away when she kissed me. I tried to stop her but she wouldn't listen." I swallowed and felt him grab my hand. "I didn't fake anything from the time that I got back. I never faked anything with you. I'm not like that, and you've known me for years, Layla. You're my best friend and my girlfriend, well that is if you take me back. But besides that, I'm sorry. I will do anything to keep you happy and if that's to see you with someone else than I have no choice but to fight for you." He wiped my cheek and kept his hand there, rubbing it. "I love you Layla," he whispered.

I swallowed, "I forgive you. You mean more than a lot to me and to hear from someone else that you cheated on me, I- it broke my heart. I never thought you would hurt me like that but I understand, you were alone and you were bored. But I do forgive you as much as I shouldn't but I do. Everyone makes mistakes," I put my hand over his on my cheek, "Even the ones we love. I love you Jack. More than anything and anyone and I want you back because I miss you and you're my best friend and you're the person that I see myself spending the rest over my life with." He brought his other hand up and wiped my other cheek, I didn't even know I was crying. I let his face come slowly to mine before I leaned the rest of the way and softly kissed his lips.

"I'm sorry," he whispered.

I shook my head slowly. "Let's just relax and forget about it. And clean this apartment too," I giggled.

He nodded and smiled. I got up from the couch and went out the door into the hallway to get my bag. I rolled it in and left it by the door.

I smiled at Jack before I started picking up his clothes and throwing out the food cartons.

I finished at six and walked into the kitchen to see Jack laying his head on the counter. I walked over to the side of the counter and placed a hand on his head. His head shot up and he turned, pulling me into his chest and wrapped his arms around my waist. He laid his forehead on my shoulder when I wrapped my arms around his middle.

"Thank you for coming and letting me explain."

I nodded.

We stayed like that for a couple more minutes. I wanted go see my brother too.

"I need to go see Alex."

He picked his head up off my shoulder and nodded. "Do you want me to drive you?"

I shook my head, "I can drive there."

I got the keys off the counter and headed for the door. "I'll order some food for us?"

I nodded and he walked over and kissed my forehead, I hugged him before going down the stairs and getting in the car.

It took me five minutes to get there and I knocked on Alex's door.

"Hey." I said when he opened it.

He hugged me right away and I giggled against him.

"Missed you too."

"Don't ever leave again. You scared me shitless."

"I didn't want to be here. I didn't want to face you or Jack or the guys. I couldn't be here."

"I understand but just talk to me next time."

I punched his arm as hard as I could. "OW!"

"That's what you fucking get for not telling me."

"I couldn't, Jack would've killed me."

"You've never kept anything from me before."

"I know and I'm sorry. Are you coming in or are you just gonna stay out there?"

"Well I do need to go back home. Jack ordered food for us. I just wanted to see you."

He nodded. "Alright, I'll see you later," he hugged me tight.

"Love you Lex." I waved.

"Love you too."

I walked out and got back into the car, going back home.

I realized that I just called the apartment my home. Well, I mean how couldn't I? Jack was there. He had my heart and like they always say, "Home is where the heart is." And Jack was my home.

I parked in the same spot I pulled out from and walked up the stairs to the door. I opened it and locked it and walked into the kitchen after I smelt food. I smiled at Jack before setting the keys down.

"That was quick."

"Well, I didn't want the food to get cold."

He nodded and got plates out and gave me one. I set the food on my plate and sat down at the counter. Jack sat next to me and we ate silently.

"When does tour start?" I asked while he picked up my plate.

"About a week." He put the plates in the sink and walked over to me. "Are you coming?"

I looked at him, "If you want me to."

He hugged me. "Of course I do."

I smiled and kissed his cheek then yawned. I was probably tired from the plane ride.

"Tired?" He asked. I nodded.

He picked me up bridal style and I giggled. He walked into the bedroom and set me softly on the bed.

He took off my shoes for me, "Thank you."

He came over to my head and kissed it, "Night." He turned off the light and walked towards the door.

"Where are you going?"

"I was gonna sleep on the couch," he said turning around.

I bit my lip but didn't say anything else. He closed the door on his way out. I got under the covers, taking off my jeans.

I stared up at the ceiling for twenty minutes. I could not sleep. I couldn't sleep without him.

I sighed and got up, taking off my shirt and putting on a tank top, walking down the hallway and into the living room. It was kinda dark, but the windows were open so I could kinda see.

"Why aren't you sleeping?" Jack asked when I stood in front of him.

"I can't sleep without you." I looked down at my bare feet. Jack got up and walked me down the hall and into our room again. I crawled up onto the bed again and waited for him to change. When he came out of the bathroom I smiled.

I watched him get under the covers and lay his head on the pillow, turning away from me.

I understood what he was doing, he was giving me space to think about if I really wanted him back or not.

I sighed quietly and moved over to him, wrapping my arm around his lanky waist.

I felt him turn onto his back and he put his arm behind the back of my head. I smiled and laid my head on his chest. He kissed my head and I felt asleep soon after.

Notes
