**Second Chances**As Jackie was still asleep in her bed, Josh had came home and walked into the bedroom. When he did, Josh found his wife asleep so peaceful. He sat on the bed, brushes the hair from her face, kisses her and she slowly wakes up. " Hey, you're home." she says. " I came home early because I wanted to see my beautiful wife. " " When do you have to go back?" " In a couple of days." Josh says and lays next to her. " At least I have you for a few days. So what do you want to do?" she asks him. " Why don't you get dress so I can take you out for breakfast." " Okay, but what do you want to do tonight?" " I don't care. Whatever you want to do." " How about we have a little dinner tonight?" " That's fine. Now I can meet your friends." he says as he yawns. " Honey, you've met them before at the wedding." she said. " Ohh yeah. All this work is making me tired."he said and fell asleep. " I understand." she said and went downstairs. When she gotten downstairs, Jackie was making coffee and reading the paper, but her mind started to wander. She had started to remember what happened last night at the McLeans. Jackie had closed her eyes, leaned on the counter and closed her eyes. The smell of his cologne, the way it felt to be his arms and the way they were just brought back alot of memories. But the one thing that stuck in her head was she said I Love You to him. As she remembered that a tear came to her eyes and began to cry. When the DJ came on she started to play Please Remember. When they started to play the beginning she had lost time:Time, sometimes the Time just slips away and you're left with distant days, left with the memories,I, I'll always think of you and smile and be happy for the time I had you with me, though we go our seperate ways, I won't forget so don't forget the memories we made. Her thoughts were interrupted when the phone rang, she went answered it before Josh had woken up. " Hello." she answered. " Hey Jackie." Tiff asked. " Hey girl, whats up?" " Nothing did I wake up?" she asked. " No, Josh got home. He's asleep." " Do you want me to let you go?" Tiff asked. " No thats okay. Josh is asleep." she said and sighed. " Jackie what's wrong?" Tiff asked. " It's not the same anymore. I think Josh has changed." " How has he changed?" Tiff asked. Jackie sat on the table and picked up a picture of Howie and her she pulled out last night before going to bed, as she was looking at the picture her mind had wandered when the picture was taken. It was taken a year ago when they were at the Today Show. She remembered the fans screaming as they came out, the fans asking for pictures of her and Leighanne and wanting to get their pictures taken with them. Tiffani had noticed that she wasn't answering her and might have hung up the phone. Jackie was remembering when the guys were singing Shape Of My Heart and Howie looked into her eyes, smiled and said I Love You to her. Tiffani had realized Jackie was still on the phone when she sighed. " Jackie? Are you still there?" Tiff asked. " Yeah Im sorry I was remembering something. What was your question?" " How has Josh changed? I mean he is the same person you married and grew up with?" " His work takes over his life. I don't see him at all." " Are you saying this because of what happened last night?" " All he does is sleep and I thought is was suppose to be our honeymoon?" she asked " I'm sorry Jackie." " That's okay. What are you doing tonight?"
