“And I love you, Katelynn. W-with all my heart.” he whispered back to her gently, lifting his hand to push it through her hair softly. “Nothing w-will ever change that… nothing at all…”
She dared a smile to his face, shaky as it was, as she turned to look up at him. She hoped that was the case but she had to keep reminding herself of the fact. “Do you..want to do something together..or do you need to get back to work..?”
“Work can wait.” he whispered as he ran his hands down her back slowly until they settled around the small of her back. “You’re m-more important than work.” Jack said since, really, he’d been working two days straight. Work was the only thing that kept his mind even slightly occupied whilst he was worrying over Katelynn.
