With Faith & Love

\"Hello?\"

\"Hey ma.\"

\"Hey Jett, how you doin\',\" Vickie asked.

\"I\'m doin all right,\" he lied.

\"Jett. Come on now, I wasn\'t born yesturday.\"

\"Fine. I\'m miserable. I miss my Nessie.\"

\"Then why don\'t you come over here.\"

\"Janese isn\'t at the condo?\"

\"No, she\'s over here. She\'s been in her room for the past three days. You two really need to talk. This has gone on far enough. You\'re supposed to be getting married.\"

\"I know but-\"

\"But nothing! Get your butt over here now!\" Vickie hung up the phone in Jett\'s ear.

\"All right, I\'m coming.\" Jett was already in sitting in the car ready to go. He picked the ring off the floor and put it in his pocket.

Vickie walked upstairs to Janese\'s room and didn\'t bother knocking. She opened the door and saw Janese sleeping.

\"Good, she won\'t fight.\" She walked downstairs to wait for Jett. It didn\'t take long for him to get there. Vickie saw him approaching and went to open the door. \"She\'s alseep so be quiet.\" She closed the door behind him and went to the kitchen.

\"Hi to you too,\" Jett mumbled. He walked upstairs to Janese\'s room and slowly opened the door. He saw her cuddled up with the giant teddy bear. Jett walked in and closed the door behind him. He walked towards her bed and the paper on her desk caught his eye. It was Janese\'s journal. Jett felt awkward reading it but after reading the first couple of sentences he couldn\'t stop. He sat down at her desk and continued reading. As he got down to the bottom he got a first hand look at how much Janese really loved him. Nothing really happened between her and Romulus anyway. But the simple fact of another guy touching Janese really got to him. Even if Romulus was with her before he was. But most important, Janese didn\'t even like it. Jett moved the teddy bear from Janese and took its place. \"Hey beautiful. Wake up,\" he whispered in her ear. He swiped his lips past hers and kissed her nose. Janese moved a little and wrapped her arms around his waist. She ran her hand along his back and inhaled deeply. Her eyes cracked and she drew him closer. \"Nessie wake up. It\'s me.\" Jett put his hand behind her head and kissed her forehead. Janese opened her eyes and smiled.

\"Hi.\"

\"Hey.\" She said up and laid on his chest.

\"Are you still mad at me?\"

\"No. I had a couple of days to calm down and think. And I read your journal too.\"

\"Jett, why-\" She didn\'t finish. She actually wanted him to read it. Kinda. \"What did you think?\" She started playing with the hairs on his stomach. His stomach jumped a little from her touch.

\"At first I was angry because I felt that you lied to me. Then I looked the situation and read your journal and realized I was wrong.\"

\"So you didn\'t go see Kayla,\" Janese asked in a whisper.

\"Hell no! That crazy broad can stay wherever she\'s at. I drove to the beach house actually. I don\'t know how I ended up there. I went up to the master bedroom. I could see your body on the bed and everything. And I even...\"

\"You even what,\" Janese asked.

\"I cried a little,\" Jett admitted. \"Only alittle.\" Janese adjusted her head next to his and stared in his eyes. \"I thought I was going soft or something. It was actually kinda scary. But I realized that it was just love. That I\'m in love with you.\"

\"I\'m in love with you too.\"

\"I wrote a poem too.\"

\"Can I hear it?\"

\"Yea, I memorized it just for you.\" Janese smiled and stroked the side of his face. Jett pulled her closer and started playing with her hair. He began reciting the poem and Janese knew he meant every word. \"I asked her to be my wife. To forever go through the good times and strife.\" Jett pulled the ring out his pocket and put it back on her finger. \"But do I really have what it takes to love?\" Janese kissed him on his neck and then his lips.

\"You have what it takes to love. Jett, I believe in you and me.\"

\"Janese, I\'m sorry for threating to hurt you and saying that I would go back to Kayla. I didn\'t mean it. I was just upset. But that\'s still no excuse.\"

\"Jett, don\'t beat yourself up. I\'m sorry too. I\'m sorry for lying to you and not letting you know.\" The rubbed noses and then delighted one another to a strong, passionate kiss. When the parted Jett let out a whistle.

\"I missed that. Give me some more,\" Jett said. Janese giggled and gave him some more. \"You know they say the best sex is make up sex.\" Jett ran his hands over Janese\'s body.

\"Stop, you nasty man.\" Jett gave her ass another quick squeeze. \"When was the last time we went on a date?\"

\"Last month after Thanksgiving dinner,\" Jett said, grinning.

\"That was nice. But I was talking about a date. Like when we first met.\"

\"Ohhh, one of those things,\" Jett said, like he had no clue what she was talking about. \"Get ready and I\'ll take you wherever you want to go.\" He got up so she could change. \"But they say sex is the best way to make up.\"

\"Get out,\" Janese said, and threw a pillow.
