Today was supposed to be that one special day. It was yours and Jackson’s third year anniversary together, that he seemed to forge. You had planned out this dinner, and made everything look nice, and as you had waited and waited for him to come through the front door, as he normally would, he never showed. You kept checking your texts, over and over, seeing if you would have a new message from him. But that never happened. And so, left feeling dejected, you put everything that you worked hard on, away. You changed back into one of his shirts, before going into the bedroom. You just lied there for what felt like hours, feeling slightly numb and bitter, until you fell asleep, alone, for the first time in forever.
You were woken by the bedroom door opening and closing. You lied there, not opening your eyes, as you felt Jackson getting under the covers, attempting to drape an arm over you, but you rolled onto your stomach, stopping his movements.
“Jagi? Are you awake?” He whispered, and you could tell his eyebrows were knit together in confusion, as you had always been one to cuddle, even when you were asleep.
“Yes.” You reply icily, before trying to go back to sleep, but your mind had other ideas. It began to race with the emotions from earlier, that you hadn’t much felt.
“What’s wrong? You always want to cuddle.” He was gently rubbing on your lower back, not understanding what was wrong.
“What’s wrong?” You shift around until you are sitting up, staring at his slightly shocked expression. “What’s wrong, is that my boyfriend, of three years, forgot what today was. It was our fucking anniversary. I made dinner, and had my schedule cleared for the day. And then, after it’s all said and done, you don’t even show up until 2 o'clock in the morning. I thought you would’ve at least sent a text to me, but I guess I was wrong.” You were an exploding ball of emotion as you spoke, and judging by Jackson’s expression when things were silent, you knew it wasn’t intentional. “I’m going to sleep on the couch, I can’t sleep next to you right now. I’m sorry.” You left the bedroom, shutting the door quickly as you grabbed the blanket from the back of the couch, draping it over you, and laying down. You may not have fallen asleep very fast, but you did eventually sleep.
Rubbing your eyes tiredly, you sat up, and found you were in your bed. The one you know you left in the middle of the night. Jackson was nowhere to be seen, but you could smell something delicious coming from the kitchen. Sighing, as you began to get off the bed, the door was opened, and in walked Jackson, carrying a tray that held breakfast and juice.
“Y/n, Jagi, I’m so so sorry that I forgot about our anniversary. Things have just been so busy with the new comeback, that it slipped my mind. Please, don’t be angry with me. I hate when you’re angry with me, and it’s not the same when we aren’t sleeping in the same bed. I love you. Will you please forgive me?” He set the tray on the bed, before pleading with you, and you actually saw unshed tears in his eyes as he spoke. Standing up, he looked down, fearing the worst, when you merely wrapped your arms around him tightly.
“Of course I forgive you. I was just frustrated last night, and still half-asleep. But it’s okay now. Everything is okay. I love you too.” You mumbled in his ear, not wanting to let go as you nuzzled your cheek into his neck.
“I love you so much Jagi. Please don’t ever leave my side.” He whispered those sweet words in your ear.
“Never.” You could feel the smile on his face, as he hugged you even tighter.
