Chapter 7….

The next day jack walked into the policestation when molly walked in;"Can we talk?"

"What about?"asked jack with an annoyed look;"So that I can listen to you telling me what a jerk I am and about how everything is my fault?"

"No,ofcourse not."answered his friend softly;"I'm sorry if I came on strong yesterday but I'm worried about carly and about what this is doing to her,jack,she misses you."

"I miss her too!"sighed he frustrated;"It's not like I don't want to get back together again with carly,but a lot has happened and we can't just put that aside and move on."

"Maybe not,but you can work harder at getting past it!"replied molly;"If you really want carly back then you will have to get over it and get back on the right track with her."

"That's easy for you to say!"said her friend angry;"Carly lied to me again and not only that,molly,she also got parker to lie and destroyed evidence!"

"And why is that a surprise to you?"asked she;"Carly will always do whatever she has to do to protect the people that she loves and this time she thought that she needed to protect parker."

"She shouldn't have lied to me!"answered jack;"She should have told me the truth and we could have found a solution together!"

"You can stay angry at her and lose her all together in the process or you can get over it and forgive her!"replied his friend as she turned around and walked away;"Make up your mind,jack!"

Twenty minutes later carly was just about to go on her way out when jack,who had decided to take molly's advice,showed up;"Hi,carly,can I come in?"

"Actually no,because I have to be somewhere in less then half-an-hour."said she and got a bit annoyed when jack walked into the house anyway as he closed the door behind him;"What are you doing,jack Snyder,I just told you that I don't have time for you right now!"

"I have to talk to you."replied her ex-husband as he made her go back inside and sat her down on the couch;"We need to talk."

"What about?"asked carly;"I think we have said enough already,jack."

"About us and where we go from here!"answered he frustrated;"I love you,carly,I miss you and I hate the way that things are between us."

"I hate that too,jack,but I don't know what to do to make things better and I can't change what I did!"sighed his ex-wife;"I have already told you enough times that I'm sorry for what I did or what I made parker do,so I don't know what else to do."

"And I want to forgive you,carly,I really do!"said jack and took carly's hand into his;"I want us to get back together again."

"Then what are we going to do about it?"asked she,happy about jack's words;"I miss you too,jack."

"Why don't we just take it one step at the time and see where that leads us."suggested her ex-husband;"Okay?"

"Okay."smiled carly;"I'd like that."
