"Jenna, may I tell you something?", John asked breaking the silence.

"Sure." Jenna was now cussing under her breath. She was sure that if John hadn't started talking, they would be kissing right now, and she would have let him.

John then took Jenna's hand, and they both sat down on the bed. "I want to tell you exactly what's going on in my head right now."

"Ok, go ahead."

"Jenna, I just want to tell you that I have never stopped loving you, and although I told you in the hospital already once, leaving you that night was the biggest mistake of my life, and I do regret it. I think us being together again is a sign. A sign that maybe…possibly…we can try to work things out.", John confessed as he once again moved closer again to Jenna. "What do you say?"

Jenna was dumbfounded. She would have never thought that in a million years the man she too still loved, also loved her back. "I still love you John", she said through tears. "I do have one question though: What do we do after next week is over?"

"Anything we want to, baby! The doctor gave me like a years date to return, and all I am committed to right now is the Tribute to the Troops in early December. Other than that, I am all yours…that is if you want me to. I can stay with you, you can come with me to Tampa or even come back home to Boston. Its completely up to you", John said caressing Jenna's cheek.

"Well, you know I can't leave work just like that," Jenna said now linking her arms around John's neck. "If we were really going to do this, I would ask that you would stay here until at least you leave for Iraq."

"Baby, I would do anything for you, to keep you in my life permanently. Lets worry about all that later. Lets just focus on tonight…and us."

"Ok", Jenna said. John, still caressing her cheek, leaned down and hungrily kissed Jenna. It was what both of them wanted for so long, and it felt so good.

"I want to do this right", Jenna said breaking the kiss. "You go sit in the living room, and I want to set the bedroom in the "romantic" mood."

"Ok", John said smiling and kissed her quickly. "Don't be too long."

"You have waited almost 5 years champ!", the blonde said sarcastically. "You can wait another 5-10 minutes."

Once Jenna was in her room alone, she got some candles out of her bathroom, and lit them around the frame of the bed. The candles made the room smell awesome, and made her more in the mood. She then looked through her dresser drawer, and found a piece of baby blue lingerie. Perfect, she thought as she quickly changed. The lingerie barely covered her butt, and knew John would love it. "Ok, you can come back in", Jenna yelled to John excitedly. She was kneeling on her bed, and when she saw John's expression, she was even beyond excited.

"Wow, the room…you, its all so beautiful", John said kneeling in front of Jenna, beginning to kiss her neckline.

"Thank you, I wanted it to be perfect."

"Jenna, if it would have been during the day with the lights on, it would have been perfect. Its perfect as long as I am with you."

John and Jenna then began kissing hungrily, as Jenna pushed John to his back so she could be on top. She then took off her lingerie, and John smiled shyly at the sight in front of him. Jenna then began kissing him again, and not too long after, John turned her over so he could be on top, and slowly entered her once his pants were off. "Oh my God", Jenna moaned as John began thrusting more.

"Are you ok?", he asked.

Jenna couldn't talk, so she just nodded her head. The feeling of him being inside of her was absolutely awesome, and she didn't want it to stop. About another hour later, the tired reunited couple lay exhausted in bed.

"Jenna?", John started as looked down at Jenna. Jenna then turned to him.

"Yes?"

"I love you. I love you so much!"

Jenna smiling, sat up and kissed John again. "I love you too."

In the middle of the night, Jenna woke up, half expecting to find John being gone. She was pleasantly surprised to see John still in her bed, lying on his back, peacefully sleeping. While smiling, she kissed his cheek, snuggled into his side, and went back to sleep.
