“You still working, smart girl?”
You were so caught up in your homework that you hadn’t even heard the front door opening or the footsteps approaching you. You nodded, not turning around to meet Jack’s blue eyes.
“You’ve been at it all day, babe. Maybe you could take a break, y’know, since it is your spring break,” Jack suggested. You heard him padding around behind you to turn the television on.
You had promised Jack that you would have a night in, just the two of you, but homework had caught up to you.
“J, I’m trying to focus,” you groaned. “My professor just added two assignments to the schedule for next week.”
Jack had always known that you were focused on school ever since you two were little. You had grown up together and you always held the title of the smartest in the class. Now was no different, you pushing yourself to graduate at the top of the class with the thought of grad school in the back of your mind.
“And you’re the smartest in the whole university, Y/N! C’mon, you need a break from the books,” Jack called out, rounding you while you sat at the kitchen island of his apartment. You were only visiting Jack’s place in New Jersey for the week until you had to go back to college.
“Jack,” you warned. You both knew each other so well at this point that you knew how to get the other annoyed.
“You should come over to the couch and I’ll cuddle you up and we can order Chipotle,” Jack offered, a smile starting to show on his face. “C’mon, I know you want Chipotle, Y/N.”
“I think you want Chipotle, Mr. Sponsor,” you chuckled. Jack was now standing behind you and he wrapped his arms around your shoulders, his head resting on top of yours.
“Take a break with me,” he whispered. You couldn’t deny that his voice and touch still managed to send shivers down your back.
“I want to, I’m just nervous, Jack. This has been my hardest class all semester,” you trailed off.
“You’ll do great with this course, eh? I can feel it,” Jack shook your shoulders gently, eliciting a laugh out of you. He massaged your shoulders a little and you leaned back into him.
“Jack?” He hummed in response to your question. “Have you ever felt imposters syndrome?”
“That’s a loaded question, babe,” he laughed. “I don’t think I started feeling like an important member of the Devs until, like, three months ago.”
You didn’t say anything in response, but intertwined your right hand with his left that rested on your shoulder. He had called you too many times to count, barely able to get his feelings out, but feeling so lost and alone inside. Even though you and Jack lived such different lives, shared feelings and your love for each other always brought you together.
“Love you, Rowdy,” you mumbled, squeezing his hand right.
“Love you my smart girl.”
“But, I also don’t know how much more I can do tonight…so,” you said, tilting your head up to meet his. Jack leaned down to kiss your lips, before pulling away.
“So Chipotle?”
“Yup.”
“And watching a movie with me?”
“Yup.”
“And letting me show you how much I love you until you can’t walk?”
“Jack!”
