A Moment Defined...By Jamie under pen name Bayleigh Ford
They say that life is made of moments. That each one can define you, make you know you are. That these are the ones that change you from who are right then and who are meant to be.
Jack never believed in that stuff. He believed that the fact that he was attracted to boys would pass,
that he would find a nice girl, fall in love, get married, shot a few babies, have a ranch and die on his land in his sleep.
Then he meant Ennis.
The knew the moment he saw him his life was going to change. He knew that second night on Brokeback when he looked into Ennis eyes that he was done for it.
He remembered one of there fishing trips, about 6 years in. Ennis had gone off on a ride, and Jack choose to say. He sat by the fire, looking at the miles upon miles of mountains, the sky dotted with stars and the endles midnight blue sky.Ennis came back to and sat behind him, wrapping his arms around his waist and dropping a feather soft kiss on his neck.
"Hey rodeo,..where r ya?"
"Just thinkin", Jack asked, playing with Ennis fingers.
"Well dont think to hard over there darlin'"
And with that he felt a deep pain in his chest so painful, that tears came to his eyes. Ennis must of noticed because he started to rock him back and forth,
panic on his face.
"Rodeo.what..what are...what happened?"
Everything he wanted to scream, shout it from the tops of the the mountain. This, us , you damn it., and as quick as it came he let it pass, for it wouldnt change a future they would never had.
"Nothing, just somehin' my eye", and turned and kissed him and when Ennis kissed back it became a tangle of limbs, hot breathe and a deep desire that took them both over.
All of his memories with short and sweet like that, so short they sometimes they felt like a fleeting glance or a lost page in a novel.
So maybe it was about the moment. Some days he cursed the day he meant Ennis. Other days he thanked god for him. He coudnt live without him, yet he was.
That was his life. Maybe fleeting glances were all he was going to get.
Sometimes he thought it was going to kill him. He missed Ennis sometimes he couldnt breathe, couldnt feel.
Everything inside him told him that maybe it wasnt worth the pain, the heartbreak. Sometimes he wondered of Ennis felt like he did sometimes and prayed because it was all so much for him.
And then their would be that moment, like the one they had on Brokeback that first summer, with Ennis soft hum in his ear.
Mabye Jacks life with Ennis as a moment defined by heartbreak and a love that was bigger then anything he thought was possible.
So Jack took it and hoped to God it was enough.
