The wind ran through the window panes of Jac's flat as she lay there thinking. Thinking of her past, of her many attempts at love. There'd been Joseph. The first man she really cared for, she'd partially opened up to him. Not that it had lasted, ending after a few months. It was just one night stands from then till Jonny. He was different. His 'natural' Scottish charm had won her over the first time they'd met. She was not expecting to fall for him as hard and fast as they did. Granted, she messed it up. Cheated, left. There was a fling with Guy which ended abruptly. But in the end she was devoted to Jonny and their daughter was a sign of that love. He was patient, waiting till she eventually opened up to him. However, that slowly deteriorated. She no longer talked to him, no longer felt the butterflies.
That was the end of her love life. She had a daughter and her job to focus on and that was enough for her. Behind that glossy exterior though was a fragile woman, desired to be loved and appreciated. She would never have been able to predict the future though.
