savannah's pov

once i quickly threw back on some clothes, i hurried into the apartment elevator, while calling dylan a bunch of times.

he was refusing to answer any of my calls and to be honest, i don't blame him after i cheated on him, again.

i got out of the lobby doors and thankfully noticed his car still parked by the sidewalk. inside the car, i saw him do a tiny double take at my presence before he immediately started up the engine.

i rushed over to the car and tried to open the front passenger seat, but it was locked.

"dylan, please let me in" i begged as i knocked on the window.

he took a few seconds to stare at me, until he gave in and unlocked the door.

i got into the car and dylan sat beside me in the driver's seat. everything was silent as he stared out of his window and i looked down at my hands, trying to find a beginning to my explanation.

"why did you even agree, when i offered to come to london with you?" he suddenly said.

"...i-i'm sorry".

"but you're not, savannah!" he instantly faced me and yelled. "i was willing to drop everything for us, i was going to move half way across the world with you, but then you suddenly jump into bed with the guy you previously had an affair with? that doesn't just happen okay, so telling me that you're sorry is bullshit".

he aggressively punched the steering wheel and after that, i could barely comprehend a response.

i trapped my lips inside my mouth, as the guilt continued to weigh down on me and i tried to prevent the tears on my waterline from falling down my cheeks.

dylan eventually sighed at my watery eyes and rubbed his chin, "i never actually wanted to believe that it was true".

i glanced at him, "believe what?".

"that you still had feelings for him. for jack," he quietly added. "you know, your face always lights up when you tell me about a memory of you two? and sometimes you're not even yourself after you both argue".

"that's not tr—".

"even just the way that you look at him..." he drifted off and i shook my head at the nonsense coming out of his mouth. "even when you're angry, you still look at him in this way that says; deep down, i could never hate you, and i never saw that same look on the day that we argued".

dylan gazed at me and gently moistened his lips as he waited for me to speak.

i was mentally reciting everything that he just said. i was trying to check for the possibility of them actually being true. maybe i couldn't ever hate jack, maybe i do smile more than usual when i think of our memories.

maybe, i'm officially tired of pushing my feelings for him to the very back of head.

"why didn't you say anything?" i asked dylan.

he looked out of the window and chuckled, "because i love you, and i just wanted to leave it as me, imagining it all".

"i love you too" i tried to smile. "...but jack and i have so much history and this connection that i have tried to run from for so long, but-but i'm tired of running. i mean, it was him at the beginning, so i'm pretty sure that it'll be him at the end and i just don't want to put you through that".

dylan turned away from me and groaned slightly as he pulled his hands down face, "wow, is this us really breaking up?"

"yeah, i guess it is".

"well, london's gonna love you and i guess, i'm now glad that i was no where near finished packing for it" he chuckled.

i smiled at his joke before he squeezed my hand tightly.

"i don't know, i just wish that i'd met you first" he whispered.

he held a smile on the corner of his lips to distract the fact that his eyes just released a single tear drop.

i reached over to him and stroked his cheek.

"i don't get it, why aren't you more mad at me?" i wondered and he smirked, before removing my hand.

"i guess, i just want you to be happy" he said and gripped onto the steering wheel. "i'll see you around, savannah".

i nodded my head, then stepped out of the car with the door shutting behind me. i gave dylan one tiny wave and watched him drive off, before going back inside the apartment lobby.

jack's pov

as i waited in savannah's room, i looked out of the window and could see her and dylan both sitting inside his car.

i thought about what they could possibly be saying to one another, then sat back down on her bed as my mind tried practicing how to accept anything that savannah ends up coming back here to tell me.

whether it starts with; i love you too, or if she says; dylan and i made up and are still going to london.

my heartbeat raced as i thought about the last one because at this point, i don't know how well i can cope with rejection again.

i heard the front door open suddenly and i quickly got up from the bed. i took a deep breath and walked out of the room to meet savannah in the living room.

"so, what happened?" i asked. "did he cry?".

i laughed as humour was my only defence to how nervous i was, but savannah didn't understand and instantly frowned at it.

"do you really think that now's the time to be making fucking jokes, jack?" she angrily asked.

"woah, are you seriously mad at me?" i pointed to myself and questioned, but she soon shook her head slightly.

"no, i just—...i don't know, i just hate the fact that i hurt him" she quietly said, then surprisingly came closer to rest her head on my bare chest and wrap her arms around my waist.

i cleared my throat to hint away from how fast my heart was beating.

"i know" i responded, as i hugged her back and kissed the top of her head.

"it's been a long day, and i'm just really tired" she let go and walked past me to leave the living room, but turned back before she left. "stay with me?".

i nodded my head a little too quickly as i followed her back to her room.

savannah kicked off her shoes, and undressed before me, "you don't mind, do you?".

she gestured to my shirt and after i shook my head, she pulled it on with just her panties, then joined me in the bed.

she reached over to turn off the bedside lamp and edged closer to me. i spooned her from behind and held my arm around her waist, with my head resting just above hers.

the beautiful and soothing scent from her hair waved around my nose, while i tried to find the right words to say.

"so about london," i awkwardly began. "are-are you still going?".

she took a few moments and i almost assumed that she'd already fallen asleep, but she soon sighed, "i still want to follow my dreams. i mean, that's what it's been about since the beginning".

"well, i get that one hundred percent, but i just feel like being 6000 miles away from the girl that i love isn't going to work for me," i explained. "and i guess, i'd rather wake up beside her in england everyday".

savannah shuffled around to face me - the glow from the street lights radiated through the curtains, so i could still see her facial features in the dark.

"are you serious?" she asked in disbelief and i stroked her cheek.

"yeah. i wanted to tell you when we came back here after that shopping day, but things got awkward and then the next day, dylan beat me to it".

a smile edged across her lips when i finished speaking, "i love you. i love you so much".

"oh, do you now?".

"yes" she chuckled and propped herself up by her elbow. "getting over you was probably one of hardest things that i have ever had to do, and i don't think i could do it again".

everything that she said just made me want to kiss her until i couldn't anymore, but i passionately pressed my lips to hers and she kissed me back as my cold hand went beneath her shirt and rubbed up and down her side.

"it'll just be me and you," i began and kissed against her jaw. "...in england" i added, with another kiss on her neck.

"...i'll be eating crumpets in the morning, and then you at night" i continued and felt her throat vibrate with laughter at my sexual innuendo.

"are you sure about that?" savannah giggled, before she turned me over to straddle my lap.

"only if you let me" i cocked my brow as she rubbed her hands up my chest then locked her arms around my neck.

"you'll just have to wait and see" she whispered close to my face and teasingly brushed her lips against mine.

my eyes gazed at her features as i tried to attach the kiss more, but she quickly pulled back with a smirk.

"goodnight, jack" she sang and climbed off my lap to lay beside me again.

i shook my head with a smile, then tightly wrapped my arms around her waist.

"goodnight beautiful" i whispered and kissed the back of her head before finally closing my eyes.

-

recap: so, there is officially no more savannah and dylan, and idk if i'm happy or sad about that yet. but that was the last of him...for now.

then, jack's offered to go to london with savannah and she's accepted, so yay for javannah.
