A/N: This next chapter takes place ten years later and it's the last chapter of A Million Years. Jack and Chloe are happily married. Last chapter's a little wee bit short…
Chapter 9-A Million Years
"Chloe?" Jack calls from the bedroom.
I wrap a fluffy white towel around my wet body and step out of the steamy bathroom. I walk over to the bed and sit down next to where he's lying.
"Yes?"
"I was wondering…today, could we visit the CTU cemetery?" he asks.
I can't say I'm shocked with his demand. He's been planning for us to go there and pay our respects to Tony, Michelle and Edgar for a while. Oh wait, I forgot one person–Audrey. I don't know why she's buried there, she was the daughter of the Secretary of Defense, she should be buried in Washington.
I smile and nod. "Sure."
"Great," he smiles back, "can we go to the florists first?"
"Yeah, sure,"
It's cute to hear and see him so eager to go to a cemetery to remember dead people.
"But let's just have breakfast first,"
He nods and pulls me down with him. I shriek like a little girl and he kisses me tenderly on the lips. I freakishly giggle and he lets me go, unwrapping the back part of my towel.
"Not right now," I whisper, getting up and adjusting my towel so that it's fully covering my body again.
He gets up and kisses my neck. I roll my eyes and run into the closet and get dressed.
"I'll get us some breakfast," I say as I bounce down the stairs.
He calls 'yeah' and I start on the pancakes.
Two hours later…Jack pulls up into the driveway of the CTU cemetery and we get out.
"Hurry up, Chloe!" Jack calls, halfway to their graves.
I roll my eyes and stick out my tongue, but he can't see because five bouquets of flowers are in front of my face. Yes, there are only four dead people, but Tony has to have two–something about brotherhood or something cheesy like that.
I run and catch up to Jack, who's standing at Tony and Michelle's graves.
He lays the three bouquets of flowers down and does the sign of the cross twice. At a loss for words, he hugs me and we move to Edgar's grave. I lay down the flowers and Jack looks at me.
"What?"
"Aren't you going to say anything?"
"Well...no. You didn't say anything over there so why should I say something here?"
"Well...I don't know. Let's just go to Audrey's."
I roll my eyes and we amble over to Audrey's grave. God, it's so weird to be standing where Audrey's dead body is laying.
Jack hands me the flowers and holds onto them with one hand so that we can both lay them down on her grave.
"Audrey, I hope you're liking your new place...up there..." I say.
Jack slightly chuckles. "It would've never worked between us," He adds.
We get up and hold hands as we walk back to the car.
My goodness, it's seemed like our relationship has taken a million years.
