Haven was almost close enough to touch, it had been two years since I had been back home. My last memory was watching it burn down as jack and I drove away. Now I stop as I reach the edge of the cane fields. Jack beside me with everyone else, except for Selena. Sadly she wasn't able to survive the explosion set off by the Emperor. I remember hearing Mathews voice in my head, '" The moon rises, the moon sets.'"p

Jack survived, after all he's defied death multiple times before. He was still severely hurt, enough that we had to forage in the hideout he created and Aric's fortress of a home for six months, Though he strongly refused. In that time Mathew came back after joules had lost his life.

I sneak a glance at Jack his expression blank, "Damn, swear it gets bigger every time I see it."

Slowly I push forward trying to blink the tears away, we're home and I'm never going to leave I think to myself. Brushing my fingers across the rows of cane, a smile creeping up my face as they bend at my light touch. Six million strong.

Eventually the cane ends and it's just the long gravel driveway, but I turn towards the barn walking in silence the others stay behind but Jack follows me.

" Remember when I first found you and your mere here after the flash? You didn't even know how to handle a gun, though you were still willing to shoot me." I stopped at the barn doors and looked up at him, "bet your glade you didn't, peekon."

I gazed up at him and smiled not sure that words could describe what I was feeling. So I rapped my arms around him tight and buried my face in his chest, listening to his heart beat.

The house was quiet with nobody inside, the familiar walls that i'd lived in all my life Surrounding me once more. My fingers were intertwind with Jacks as we walked inside. Mathews expression was blank but Finn was bewildered at the sight, "sweet pad Eves!"

I smiled at his astonishment, a small part of me thought of Selena wanting to see what the look on her face would be, jealous Selena? i pushed that thought away quickly. I shrugged off my bugout bag onto the couch before heading upstairs, The others did the same but Jackson kept his pack, tipical cajun always worried about survival. at the top of the stairs I turned towards my mothers bedroom, stopping at the entryway to get a full look of the room, and like we left her laying under the covers, lifeless was Karen Greene. I walked over to the edge of her bed reaching a hand out to hold hers, tears streamed down my face at the sight of her cold, pale body.

A deep whistle comes from the doorway and I hear Finn's voice, "woah, talk about taking the fun out of things."

Next to him Lark elbows him in the side, "ow! Alright."

She takes a few steps toward me and cups my shoulders with her hands the three wolves wait by the door, I look back at them and cyclops tilts his head. She pulls me so I'm facing her, letting go of my moms hand. She looks directly into my eyes before pulling me in for a huge, I rap my shaking arms around her, tears falling from my cheeks onto her shoulder. She finally pushes away, "was that your mom?"

I nod looking over at Jack who's standing across from me on the other side of the bed. Eyes narrowed at her body focusing his attention on it, thinking about giving her the pills? Either way I know that it tore him up inside helping her. Badass Karen Greene nothing could hurt her,Yet she died for me gave her life Up so I could live mine.

"Well, atleast now we can give her a proper burial." I glanced up at Jackson to see what he thought about it. We locked eyes and he scowled at me but couldn't keep a smirk from crawling over his face, "Peekon, your never Goan to get that thought out of your mind are you?"

I gave him a wet goofy smile before walking out of the room trying to leave the image of her face stained in my brain.

"Okay, so for now you and Lark can take the guest bedroom down stairs, Mathew can have the couch until we've fixed up the spare room down the hall. Good?" I gave them blankets and pillows for the night and was hoping to be able to find a more permanent place for them all to stay. Jack was currently taking his turn in the shower which was probably a good thing considering I wasn't sure whether we would be sleeping in the same room like we used to during the flash.

They were planning on burying my mom tomorrow early in the morning so no one would come by and see us digging her grave. I walked back into my room after the others left to go claim there spots. I found Jackson in my room, hair wet and the same pair of jeans on. He'd left his shirt off and was tracing the clouds on the wall like he'd done before. At the sight of him barechested my heart skipped a beat, and I stopped in my tracks. It took me a second to get a hold of myself before I walked forward towards him rapping my arms around him. So my chest was against his back. I clasped my hands at his chest and rested my chin on his shoulder closing my eyes, "I like you like this."

He braught his arms done and turned so we were facing each other, " really 'cause the last time I was in your room you were yelling at me to leave."

I looked into his deep, stormy gray eyes and smiled, "that was a long time ago."

"Ouais"

he bent down and brushed his lips against mine and I knew life was going to get better, it had to.
