Inspired by the line 'I wish you still loved me'

Written from Jenny's POV

I sit in my office, my name on the door, the reminder of what I gave up for this career.

I was happy once, I had the husband that I had always wanted, and I loved him with all of my heart, and he loved me, even though he never told me verbally, he told through his actions and his eyes.

I left him in Paris because I was too wrapped up in furthering my career that I didn't consider the effect it would have on my heart, it took me the plane flight back to DC to know that I had made a mistake but by then, I knew he would have already woken up and found the letter I wrote him, and left beside him, it was pathetic really, when I think about it, because it told him how I love him and that I needed to do this.

What rubbish!

I never needed to do anything, I was in love, even if the marriage was a fake the engagement ring he gave me beneath the Eiffel tower on our last night there, wasn't.

Today he stands at my desk, his eyes boring into me, as though he can see into my mind and soul.

His retirement is in my hand now, and he says he is leaving, he says he is going to Mexico.

"I wish you would just sign the blasted thing Jen!" he screams at me, as I haven't signed it and he's been standing there for the past ten minutes apparently, and asking me to sign it.

I stand up defensively, and before I can stop myself I reply, "Yeah, and I wish you still loved me, we don't always get what we.........."

He stops me with his lips pressed against mine, with passion, and backs me against the window, as I hook my leg around him, with my heel softly digging into his lower back forcing him closer, and when he stops he grins at me, "I never stopped loving you Jen"

I smile and kiss him, "I love you too"

He smiles and kisses me again, and when air is needed I move to the desk and sign his papers, "You don't need to sign them Jen, I'll stay?"

I look at him with an eyebrow raised, "Why?"

He cups my cheek softly and presses a kiss to my head with a faint smile, "Because I'm not losing you again"

I shake my head, "You won't because I'm retiring too, and I'm coming to Mexico with you"

He grins and kisses me, and I know everything is going to be okay, because I have a second chance now.
