Chapter 14

It was in the middle of the night,but carly just couldn't sleep no matter how tired she was.

The thought of leaving her house,the home that she and jack had spend so much time in and had some good as well as bad times in and where their kids had lived for most of their lives,for a few months was breaking her heart even though she knew that she would be coming back and that it wasn't the same like the time that she left with simon.

Walking down the stairs,through the livingroom and into the kitchen brought back a lot of memories,amazing memories of the kids as they were growing up as well as from her and jack together because beside the bad times they had also had some wonderfull times,and with a faint smile she thought of all the places she and jack had made love in through-out the house and that part of their relationship had always been perfect because all it would take was just one glance of jack to make her tremble or just hearing him say her name in his special way and the thought of it made her tremble even now although she was surprised that she was suddenly thinking of that.

Just as she walked back into the livingroom,after grabbed a bottle of water from the kitchen,a shadow suddenly appeared through the frontdoor,scaring the hell out of her and she almost screamed when she saw who it was;"Damn it,jack,you almost gave me a heartattack!"

"Sorry,I used my old key because I didn't want to wake anybody up."said he,showed her the key in his hand and closed the door behind him;"I didn't mean to scare you."

"What are you doing here?"asked carly confused;"It's the middle of the night and everybody's asleep!"

"You're not."answered her ex-husband with a grin on his face as he came closer towards her;"Sorry,carly,I didn't mean to scare you and I have no idea what I'm doing here in the middle of the night."

"Jack…"started she hesitating;"Shouldn't you be at home,in bed with your wife?"

"I hate the fact that you're leaving,carly,I hate not seeing you for months and I know that it doesn't make any sense right now,but that's the way I feel."said jack tired as he sat down on the couch;"I'm sorry for doing this and you don't need this right now."

"You look exhausted."began his ex-wife worried while she sat down next to him;"Maybe you should go home."

"I don't want to go home."answered he softly,looking straight into her eyes and pressing away a string of hair that was infront of her eyes with his fingers,gently brushing her skin with his fingertops;"Do you remember how many times we just sat here on this couch,in eachother's arms?"

"Ofcourse I do."said carly with a faint smile;"How could I forget,G-man?"

Hearing carly calling him that stired something inside of jack and before he knew what he was doing jack leaned towards carly and his lips were on top of hers.

Totally thrown by the kiss carly's first reaction was to put her arms around his neck and kiss him back,which she did,but then she got to her senses and pushed jack away;"We can't do this!"

"I'm sorry."answered he surprised about his own actions and got up;"I should go."

"Jack…."called carly out to him as he reached the door on his way out and quickly walked up to him at the door,where she gently kissed him;"Goodbye."

"Goodbye,carly,take care of yourself."said her ex-husband,holding back the urge to lift her up into his arms and carry her to the bedroom,as he gently brushed her cheeck with his hand and walked out the door;"Bye."

"Bye,G-man."whispered she almost while she closed the door and leaned up against it,all kinds of thoughts running through her mind.
