Ianite's Pov

Jordan jumps from a tree and lands gracefully in front of me.

"Jordan! How much of that did you hear!?" Tom says taking his death gaze off me and giving Jordan a sympathetic look.

Jordan doesn't answer, but he does look back over his shoulder at me.

He has tears in his eyes. "I expected more from you Tom." He says looking back at Tom.

People say gods don't have feelings. That they can't feel love or heartbreak, happiness or sadness.

They're wrong. They're so wrong. We feel what they feel but 100,000,000 times worse. We just know how to hide it.

"I know. I'm sorry for everything." Tom answers.

"You remember what Capsize used to call me?" Jordan says and pulls me beside him.

Tom's Pov

Jordan throws his arm around Ianite protectively.

My cheeks heat up with anger. I've never wanted to hurt a girl as much as I want to hurt Ianite now. Not even Capsize got me this angry.

"Jardon. She called you Jardon! Nothing more nothing less!" I try to not raise my voice. But its getting hard at this point.

"Way to be a smartass about it." Jordan pauses,

"Actually that wasn't even smart! So you were just being an ass!" He finishes.

Ianite mumbles something I can't understand. But Jordan caught it.

"I know we'll be home soon." She's cold. I roll my eyes and reach for Jordan's hand.

He swats it away but starts back towards the house.

Jordan's Pov

I tuck Ianite in on the couch. Andor's fast asleep in Tom's recliner.

"Spar-Jordan." Ianite says as I turn to go up to me and Tom's room.

I turn back for her. She's had a rough night.

"M' Lady?"

"Don't be to upset with Thomas please. He was just scared and confused. He didn't mean what he said." Ianite turns over and falls alseep.

When I enter Tom gives me a look but it quickly diminishes.

"J-Jordan your neck! I hurt you!" I quickly click off the lights.

I slide my shirt over my shoulders and put on some pajama pants.

I climb into bed, the second after Tom pulls me into his arms.

He squeezes a little to tight around my bruised ribs.

I reach up and lightly slap Tom's cheek. "Sorry." He mumbles.

As we so in silence, memories of Ianite's meltdown flood into my mind.

Her horror filled face when she saw I signed that letter as Spark.

Its like I knew! Like I sinced Spark's presence.

I let out a little sob and hope Tom doesn't notice.

With my luck he does. Tom clicks on his lamp and sits up. He pulls me up with him.

The wall is cold against my bare back. I know Tom feels the same cause he shivers.

"What's wrong? No don't even tell me. What can I...." I cut him off,

"Just kiss me."

Without a seconds hesitation Tom pulls me close and kisses me.

I kiss back, this is the feeling I've craved the past few weeks.

The feeling of our hearts beating as one. Feeling Tom smile before deepening our kiss.

I pull away and bury my head in Tom's neck.

"Never leave me." I say before I kiss Tom's neck gently.

"I won't leave you Jordan. Ever! And that's that!" Tom runs his fingers through my hair.

Tom smells amazing! A perfect combination of......

"Jordan are you sniffing me?" Tom asks giggling between other word.

"You smell amazing." I admit and pull away.

"Thank you." Tom pauses only to click off his lamp.

"I'm tired lets get some sleep."

Time Skip

I carefully slide from Tom's arms. I walk downstairs to see Ianite.

I can't help it. I'm terrified about everything right now.

Just sitting in her presence makes me feel comfortable. Lile everything's gonna work out.

She looks at peace when she sleeps. Its now my mind wonders back to what she said eariler.

Ianite put the good of Tom before herself. I can tell she craves my touch. Because I'm so much like Spark in ways only me and her can understand.

I sigh and look down at my wrist. I rub slow circles around my mark.

Three months now. I feel a tear roll down my cheek.

"Spark don't cry. Its gonna be okay." Ianite's soothing voice echoes.

Her hand intertwines with my own. I keep my eyes closed but give her hand a gentle squeeze.

"Its okay. Its all gonna be okay. I promise." Ianite coos.

I miss home. I miss home so bad. I miss my coastline house.

I miss my vault, I miss the dock. I miss Capsize, I miss Jerry's Tree.

Tom's Pov

I wake up without Sparklez. I hear little sobs coming from downstairs.

I get up and walk downstairs. Jordan is sat in a chair in front of Ianite.

Her arm is outstretched so she can hold Jordan's hand.

"He's homesick Thomas." Ianite says in the back of my mind.

I stand still and wait for Jordan to admit it. Admit he misses the land that we used to call home.

"I miss home Ianite!" Jordan sobs. "I miss my house. I miss the soft grass, I miss Jerry's Tree. I miss Capsize! I miss my home!" Ianite pulls Jordan into her arms.

She doesn't say anything just holds him. I usually would be angry, but I'm not.

Jordan doesn't need me right now. As much as I hate to admit it, he needs her.

Ianite and Jordan have a bond I don't quite understand.

I wish I could. I wish I could understand the way they crave each others company.

Jordan's changed so much. So have I! Hell we all have!

Jordan I think more than anybody. He went from being this shy, weak, insecure, Ianitee.

To being this warrior of a man. To be able to cry into Ianite's arms.

He couldn't have done that before. He would've let it all build up inside him.

His wrist would end up paying. I'm so proud of Jordan for being clean for three months now.

It means everything to me that he's making this effort to stop self harming.

"Spar-Jordan maybe you should go see Tom." Ianite suggest smiling at me.

I silently run back upstairs and jump onto the bed.

About five minutes later I feel Jordan slide into bed next to me.

I continue to pretend to be asleep. Jordan buries his head in my chest.

"I love you." I hear him mumble. A smile forms across my face.

"So much."
