( jesse ) starts with goodbye

[bayleigh alexis moore]

After logging off of the chat and hanging up with her brother, Bayleigh Moore wasn't sure what she had been feeling. One moment she was angry, the next she was ready to cry waterfalls. Sitting on the chair on her small patio, the blonde woman eventually stood up and went back inside. She went straight for the bathroom and to the cabinet under the sink. Pulling the box of blonde hair dye out of it and closing the wooden cabinet door again, she opened up the box, read the instructions, and went on to follow them step by step. She had only dyed her hair back to it's natural color for Jesse, but if he wasn't happy with her and wanted to break up, then she was going to go back to the blonde color that she had had before that. Once she had gone through the steps that she needed to, the female set a timer and brought it with her when she went into her bedroom and grabbed her guitar. Being as upset as she was, Bayleigh knew that playing the guitar would help her heal a little.

Nearly a half an hour later, with half of a song written, the timer went off and Bayleigh went to rinse out her hair. Washing out all of the dye in the tub, the female soon grabbed for a towel and dried her hair out until it wasn't dripping wet anymore. Tossing the wet towel over the curtain rod, Bayleigh went over to the sink and looked in the mirror that was positioned above it and half smiled into it when she saw her hair was back to the bleach blonde color she had hoped for it to be. She was still upset that Jesse didn't want to hear about anything she had to say to him, but there was nothing that she could do now but move on with her life and career. She was going to miss having the male around all the time, but maybe it was for the best that they weren't together anymore.

Going back into her bedroom, Bayleigh picked up her guitar again and began belting out the lyrics that she had just thought up.

I guess it's gonna have to hurt,
I guess I'm gonna have to cry,
And let go of some things I've loved,
To get to the other side,
I guess it's gonna break me down,
Like falling when you try to fly,
It's sad, but sometimes moving on with the rest of your life,
Starts with goodbye.

p.s. i love you

Jesse had messed up. But that was never new news with Jesse. The poor boy was a sap. He was always trying to help people out but he was always putting himself into a deeper mess. The same was true for today on the royal flush's chat box. He started chatting with Elijah, just like men would do, complaining about their women and so on. But of course, it would be Jesse's luck for Bayleigh to come online and see what he had been saying to Elijah. Immediately, a fight ensued.

The rest was now a blur to Jesse's memory. He knew that Bayleigh was upset with him for not wanting to listen to her details of her past and that Bentley had gotten involved, which of course is the last thing any boyfriend wants. But for Jesse, having his best friend get on his case was just fuel to the fire. It took almost an hour of arguing with Bentley for Jesse to finally calm down. It was only when Bentley explained to him that Bayleigh had gotten a tattoo of Jesse's name on her foot because he was her biggest help in kicking her coke addiction. Jesse hadn't even known about her coke addition, let alone a tattoo with his name on it.

Bayleigh really did love him and for him to not let her tell him what she had taken so much courage to tell him, was just the wrong step. Bentley telling Jesse about the tattoo really made Jesse break. He was wrong. As always. He knew he was and he knew that he had to make it up to her. There was no way that anything he could do or say would make things better. At least not right away. But he certainly hoped that things would be smoothed over with her. He did love her, always had, always will.

Finally getting off the chat, Jesse grabbed his keys and wallet and flew down the stairs to his car. Once in his car, he made two pit stops before making his way to Bayleigh's apartment. It was the first place he was going to check for her but if she wasn't there, he'd go to every coffee shop, the studio, anything to find her. He needed to at least apologize to her in person. That was the least he could do. He also hoped that what he had grabbed for her would help a bit in the convincing department.

Jesse drove up to Bayleigh's apartment about half an hour after leaving his own place. He took a deep breath and let it out slowly before grabbing the box, the flowers and the package of chocolates. He hit the door with his hip to close it, locked the car with the key lock then stuff his keys into his pocket. He walked up the stairs to Bayleigh's apartment door. He stood there for a moment or two before deciding to take the keys out of his pocket once more and stuck the correct one into the keyhole of Bayleigh's door.

Jesse pushed the door open slowly and pulled out his key, stuffing the set of keys into his jeans pocket once more. Jesse closed the door quietly behind him, hoping that Bayleigh wouldn't be in the living room. She wasn't. He had to walk around a bit before he heard the guitar. She was in her bedroom. He walked over to the doorway and looked in. She was writing music. That must have meant she was emotional. Jesse held the packages for her in front of his face before she could look up at him. He then spoke in a soft tone from behind the presents. "Some packages for you ma'am," the male said, adding a slight southern accent to his words.

[bayleigh alexis moore]

Sitting in her bedroom, on the edge of her bed with her guitar in hand, Bayleigh quickly finished off the lyrics to the song that she had thought up off the top of her head. As soon as she finished it, she grabbed for her camera so that she could play the song through in it's entirety and be able to go back at a later time when she wasn't as upset and emotional as she had been at that very moment. Putting the camera across from her and hitting record, Bayleigh went and sat on the edge of her bed again, grabbing her stuffed giraffe and putting him on her lap first. He had been her good luck charm every since she had been attacked, so she wanted him to give her good luck as she began the moving on from Jesse process. Beginning to strum her guitar, Bayleigh replayed the song that she had written with her heart, only to finish it in tears.

Being thrown off guard when she heard a voice, a newly blonde Bayleigh looked up and saw Jesse standing in her doorway. Well, she saw the outline of his body, but his face was hidden. Putting her guitar on her bed, Bayleigh stood up, hugging her giraffe to her chest. "Go away," she said to him so defeated. "I'm not in the mood to fight anymore," Bayleigh spoke. "You can just leave the box of my stuff on the floor and my key on the counter," she continued, turning around and walking towards the window and leaning against the wall next to it. Looking out of the window, Bayleigh sighed. "I didn't know you'd be bringing my stuff over so fast. I'll, uh, have Bentley bring you your stuff tomorrow or later tonight, depending on how badly you want it back." Bringing a hand to her face, the leggy female wiped away her tears and just wanted Jesse to leave her be by herself so that she would be able to sob alone about him. It was almost like a bad joke that he was standing there in her bedroom with her.

[jesse zack matthews]

As Jesse stood in his girlfriend's doorway, he heard the song that she had playing and singing. The lyrics were heartfelt and Jesse could hear it in her voice. Out of all the times he had heard her new songs, this one hit his heart like a bulldozer to a building. He felt like something was seriously wrong. Her lyrics couldn't have been truly how she was feeling right? It was just song lyrics right? Just like every other time he had heard a new song of hers, right?

Jesse pulled the flowers down from his face when Bayleigh told him to go away and that she didn't want to fight anymore. His face felt like it was falling down with gravity and through her floor. She was really hurt. And her hair was blond. That realization while Jesse watched Bayleigh made his heart sink. She had dyed it brunette for him, because she loved him so much that she would do that. But it was blond. Did that mean she stopped loving him?

Her next phrases of words about bringing her stuff back, made him cringe a bit. "It's not your stuff," he told her quietly, setting everything but the bigger box down on the floor next to where he was standing. "Well, I mean, it's all technically yours now. I bought all of this for you," the male spoke before listening to her explain about his stuff. She was serious. They were over? That's what giving the other person's stuff back meant, right?

Jesse watched Bayleigh's movement towards her window. He didn't know what he should do. He wanted to just go over there, grab her and kiss her so hard but he didn't know how she'd react. He didn't know anything at this point if Bayleigh thought they were over. He loved her. He still did. Taking a deep breath in and letting it out between tightly closed lips, Jesse moved slowly towards Bayleigh. "Listen, Bayleigh, please," the saddened male spoke. The box in his arms wiggled a bit and he almost dropped it but he didn't. As Jesse made to speak by opening his mouth, instead of words came a bark.

Not a bark, a yip. It wasn't from his own mouth. It came from the box that he was holding in his arms. Jesse tried to make it look like it was him making a weird noise from a burp or something as he stood only a foot or so away from Bayleigh. "I love you and I don't want you to think any other way. What I said was stupid to say but sometimes I need to vent. You have your siblings. I don't have anyone like that. I have your family and a few close friends. You seeing what I was saying wasn't what bothered me. It was that you were going to know how I felt eventually. I just didn't have the right time to tell you because you have been so distant."

Jesse didn't mean to ramble like that but his emotions were getting the better of him, something he had never let happen until he started to see Bayleigh in the light that he was seeing her in now. Another small yip came from the box but this time, Jesse just opened the box cover to let the small dog's head pop out. The puppy eagerly wanted to meet Bayleigh but Jesse held the box close to him. "As much as I hate fighting with you Bayleigh, it's going to happen. That's what couples do. Even after they're married. And once we're married, I don't want you to fear that I'm going to end it with us like right now. I'm not ending it and I'm not going to let you either," Jesse said, realizing that his tone was starting to sound harsh again. "I'm just really sorry. I hope this little one can make you happier than I have," Jesse said, setting the box with the puppy inside down on the floor near Bayleigh's feet. Jesse turned and began to walk out of the bedroom into the living room where he'd wait for Bayleigh to make her decision.

[bayleigh alexis moore]

Still standing at her window, Bayleigh blinked a few tears out of her eyes so that her vision wasn't as blurry anymore. Looking out of the window, she saw a happy couple in the backyard of the apartment building eating lunch together. It seemed that no matter what was going to happen between her and Jesse, it was going to be incredibly difficult for the woman to be able to move on from him, if she was every going to be able to. Though, as soon as Jesse has begun talking to her again, Bayleigh was a little put off when he had responded with the things in his hand not being hers. For the first time since their fight, Bayleigh looked to Jesse, a little confused. Then a yip sounded in her ears. She was about to question the noise, but she figured that it was just another one of the handful of weird noises that Jesse made. Then Bayleigh made to talk, but Jesse's voice cut her off and she shut her mouth and just listened. After he spoke his peace, the blonde watched as her boyfriend exited her bedroom and motioned to the box.

Walking over to the box, Bayleigh put her giraffe down on the floor as she knelt down in front of the box. Picking the lid up off of the box, Bayleigh saw what was in the box and literally threw the lid of the box across her bedroom and pulled the tiny puppy out of the box. Hugging the puppy to her chest, Bayleigh felt the tiny animal's tongue against her chin as it licked her. Standing up semi quickly, Bayleigh looked at it. It had no collar, which meant that it had no name. Remembering everything that Jesse had said, then remembered that her phone was in the living room.

Leaving her bedroom, Bayleigh walked down the hallway and into the living room, all the while looking at her new companion. Once she was in the living room, Bayleigh looked up from the puppy and went to search for her phone, but jumped slightly when she was caught off guard when she saw Jesse sitting on her couch as if he had been waiting for her. Glad that she wouldn't have to text Jesse instead, Bayleigh's face lit up with a bright smile. Walking over to the couch, which Jesse had made himself comfortable on, Bayleigh stood in front of him before sitting on his lap. Nestling up to him, Bayleigh put the puppy into her lap and off of her chest. With her shirt a little looser and more exposing now that she was sitting down, Bayleigh looked up to Jesse with bloodshot eyes and spoke. "You can't just give me a puppy and expect me to be able to name him on my own," Bayleigh said with a laugh. "And you didn't bring accessories," she added. "How am I supposed to carry him around if I don't have a bra on?" the blonde questioned. Since she rarely wore a bra, even out in public, she knew that she's have to start wearing one if she wanted to be able to hold the tiny puppy without having to use her hands. Plus, she felt as if a puppy purse was too last season for her anyway.

"Do you really want to marry me though?" Bayleigh questioned.

[jesse zack matthews]

The time it took Jesse to reach the living room and sit down on the couch to wait for Bayleigh was the longest few moments in his entire life. He felt like his legs were trudging through thick mud, moving slow when in reality he was moving at a fairly regular pace. Jesse moved his body so that when he eventually reached the couch, his body almost flopped down onto it. He sat down on the far right cushion and relaxed his body into the soft couch. His legs hung over the edge as his feet sat flat on the ground.

When Jesse heard footsteps coming down the hallway, he moved his hands to his knees and started to pat them nervously. When he saw Bayleigh holding the puppy, a small grin appeared on his face. Then when she saw him and jumped a bit, Jesse sat up a bit more on the couch, almost ready to stand up to talk to her. But the blond female had other plans. She came over to him and sat on his lap. Jesse instinctively put his arms around her and the puppy as Bayleigh nestled up next the male.

When Bayleigh spoke about Jesse giving her a dog with no name and no accessories, Jesse chuckled a bit and gave her a grin. "I didn't know if it'd work as far as getting you back. I was preparing for the worst. And I was short on time," the male explained and watched his girlfriend. "I'll buy him anything you want for him. Even one of those silly puppy purses if need be. But no clothes," Jesse told her and looked down to the puppy, petting him slightly. Jesse's eyes caught sight of Bayleigh's exposed part of her cleavage and had to force his eyes back up to hers while petting the puppy some more.

The next words out of Bayleigh's mouth scared Jesse. She asked him if he really did want to marry her. His eyes were probably showing his shock at her question so the male looked to the puppy and thought quickly about what his response was going to be but for a few seconds all he could think was Do I? He took a quick deep breath in and out before looking back to Bayleigh in her eyes. The moment their eyes locked, he knew what his answer was going to be. "I do."

[bayleigh alexis moore]

Sitting on Jesse's lap, it was easy for Bayleigh to catch his eyes moving from the puppy to her cleavage and then back up to her face. "You don't have to hide looking at my boobs, Jesse," Bayleigh spoke. "I'm not going to get mad at you or anything. Honestly, if I was you, I'd be looking at them too," she said with a slight grin. "And I already know that you want to touch them, so don't even play it off like you don't," the blonde said, looking to her boyfriend, sticking her tongue out slightly. "As for the puppy, he's perfect," she spoke. "And you have to buy him clothes. Otherwise he'll get cold or something worse. I could always put him in a dress," she said, a big grin sitting across her lips. Though, as soon as Jesse confirmed that he really did want to marry her, Bayleigh's grin turned into a full on smile and a big one at that. "I love you, Jesse," she said, continuing to smile at him for a second after speaking before she leaned over and locked her lips with the male's.

After a couple of minutes of kissing her boyfriend, Bayleigh pulled her lips off of his and then grabbed the puppy in her hands. Swinging her legs off of Jesse's Bayleigh stood up and put the puppy on the couch next to Jesse, then reached for his hand. Once her hand was on Jesse's she pulled lightly to get him to stand up off of the couch and follow her. As soon as he stood up and followed her, Bayleigh walked her boyfriend into her bedroom and over to her bed. Laying down on her bed, Bayleigh pulled Jesse lightly so that he was on top of her. Wrapping her legs around his waist, the blonde put her lips against her boyfriend's once again; this time though, she kissed him with more passion in her lips than she had ever done before. They hadn't been this close in proximity since they were younger and had slept together for the first time. Although the male was drunk, Bayleigh had been sober and she had wanted so badly to be with Jesse. And that night, she was and she never regretted it for a moment.

[jesse zack matthews]

Jesse watching his girlfriend was probably the least exciting thing to most other people. But the poor boy was smitten and could watch Bayleigh forever. Her motions, her skin, her hair. Everything about the female was perfect and the fact that she knew that, made her even more attractive. Jesse wasn't going to let her go ever again. Not that he had planned on doing that on the chat or even coming over to her place. Jesse had never planned on leaving Bayleigh's side since the first time he met her.

The female's voice broke his thoughts as she told him it was okay to look and even touch her breasts. The grin that appeared on his face in response to her sticking out her tongue made the pair seem eagerly playful. One of Jesse's hands let go of her waist to quickly grab then go back, just to show he would if he wanted to. Then the female spoke again. "If you put our boy dog in a dress, I'm going to take him away from you for a whole week," he said in a voice that a parent would use with a child. "No clothes from me. If you want to buy them, then fine but I'm sticking to having a good old fashioned dog," the male said with a small grin and a soft chuckle.

After he told her that he indeed did want to marry her, the smile that appeared on Bayleigh's face was the biggest Jesse had seen in years. He couldn't help but reflect it back while Bayleigh said that she loved him. "I love you too Bayleigh," Jesse responded as Bayleigh leaned in to kiss him. Jesse kissed right back, moving one of his hands to the back of her neck to caress it softly with his fingers. The pair ended up kissing for a few moments before Bayleigh pulled away. Though before she did, the male bit on her lower lip gently as she pulled her lips away completely.

Bayleigh then moved to put the puppy down on the couch next to Jesse, stand up and pull his hands in her direction. The male of course gladly got up as she lead him to the bedroom. Once she was lying down on her back, she pulled Jesse softly so that he was lying on top of her. She then wrapped her legs around his waist and pulled his head down so that she could kiss him. This kiss was different than the previous. She put more passion into it. He could feel it the way she was pushing her lips against his. Jesse then took that opportunity to press his tongue into Bayleigh's mouth. Once they were kissing more, Jesse moved his body so that one hand could run from Bayleigh's neck, down across her shoulder to the side of her body, down her ribcage.

Once his hand hit the edge of her shorts, Jesse stopped and played his fingers lightly across her stomach. The male then rolled his body but held onto Bayleigh so that she ended up on top of him. Once she was, his hands immediately stroked her entire body but once he got to her back, he ran his fingers lightly up her back while pulling away from the kiss and biting her lower lip in the process. Once he was pulled away, he looked up at her and just looked at her for a few moments. "I love you so much right now Bayleigh," he told her.

[bayleigh alexis moore]

As Bayleigh and Jesse sat in the living room, the female heard Jesse's threat against her if she were to put a dress on their dog. "But Jess, he'd look so cute and fashionable," she said, pouting slightly. "Besides, you gave him to me, so technically, he's mine. I don't even have to share him with you," she said playfully. "But if you still take him away from me, I hope he pees on all of your clothes," she said, sticking her tongue out at him and crossing her arms across her chest. Though, once as soon as Jesse goosed her, Bayleigh held her hands on her boobs. "I take that back. When you're not being nice to me, then you lose all of your privileges," she spoke. Once Jesse responded that he loved her too and the female saw the smile that mirrored off her face and onto his, she knew that she was completely in love with the male. There was nothing that she could do now to ever find this sort of love with any other male in the world, even if she had too. Jesse was most definitely the one for her.

Once the pair were in her bedroom, Bayleigh on her back, she soon felt the weight of the male on top of her. He didn't lay on her completely, but rather held himself up slightly making sure not to allow all of his weight be put on her. It wasn't long before the two were making out more intensely and their tongues started to play with the other. As they kissed, Bayleigh felt Jesse's hand run down her side to her rib cage and then proceed further. The touch of Jesse's hand on her stomach forced Bayleigh's lips from her boyfriend's and let a satisfied moan come out from deep inside of her. And then he flipped them. Now on top of her boyfriend, the blonde moved a leg to either side of her boyfriend's waist and looked down at him. With her long blonde hair laying on her back, Bayleigh took the opportunity to pull her shirt over her head. Once she had, she tossed it to the ground and then rested her half naked body against the male again. With her wavy blonde hair covering some of Jesse's face, Bayleigh pushed it away and then brought her lips back down to Jesse's. Feeling a gentle bite on her lip, Bayleigh smiled. As the smile began to wear away naturally, she heard the words that Jesse spoke. "I love you more, Jesse," she said to him.

As she spoke, Bayleigh leaned up slightly and moved her hands to Jesse's belt, undoing it. Once it had been undone, she leaned down and pressed her soft lips against the male's and took the opportunity to nibble on his lip this time. As she did so, she sneakily undid the button and zipper on his pants and then brought her hands back up to his, tracing along his abdomen as she did so.

[jesse zack matthews]

When Bayleigh mentioned that she didn't have to share, Jesse made a cute puppy dog pout. Then when Bayleigh covered herself, Jesse grinned. "You can't hide from me forever you know. You know you want me to touch you," the male said seductively as he kissed then nibbled on the female's shoulder that was closest to him.

In the bedroom, things took a turn for the deep end. Jesse wasn't sure where Bayleigh really wanted this to go but he was willing to go to whatever limit she wanted. After all, it was her that had pulled him into the bedroom. He didn't force anything on her and he always said that he would never dream of doing something like that to her. He cared for and loved her way too much for that.

Once Bayleigh was on top of him, she took her shirt off over her head. Jesse's hands immediately touched her skin once it was exposed. The female then nestled against Jesse's chest for a moment. Her long blond hair crossed his face. He wiggled his nose as she pushed it away and the male immediately found himself grinning at her. When she leaned down to kiss him, Jesse kissed right back, letting out a soft moan against her lips. Her body this close to his was something he had been wanting for so long.

After their lips parted, Bayleigh spoke to say that she loved him more as she sat up a bit to undo his belt. Jesse looked down at her hands then back up to her. Once his eyes met hers, she leaned down to kiss him but this time Jesse felt her teeth on his bottom lip and he immediately moaned. This moan was slightly louder but a bit deeper. Then he heard the snap of his buttons his pants being undone and the zipper being unzipped. That was his cue.

Jesse quickly pushed his hips up so that Bayleigh was still on top but he was able to slid his pants off of his body quickly. Once they were around his ankles, the male sat up a bit more to nibble on Bayleigh's shoulder, kicking off his pants then reaching to take off his shirt. Within moments, the male was completely nude lying under his girlfriend. While still sitting up, he wrapped his arms around Bayleigh's chest to undo her bra, all the while kissing her skin around her neck and bosom.

Once off, Jesse then turned Bayleigh over back onto her back. The male then kissed from her neck, down her chest, across her stomach while his hands ran down her sides. Once his hands reached her shorts, the male quickly undid the knot that held them tight to Bayleigh's body and slipped them off. The male stared at her underwear for a second, then looked up at her. He grinned widely and slipped them off. Within another few moments, Jesse was between Bayleigh's legs and slowly pushing himself into her.
