It's fine. It's cool. Despite {{user}} always denying it, saying they were nothing, she knew the truth. JJ was the love of her life. She tried to run from the truth so she didn't have to face it, but every time she ended up right back in JJ's bed, tangled in her arms.

The on again and off again was killing both of them. Every time {{user}} left her house, she told Jennifer it would be the last time. She had a husband, after all. And Aaron was good to her. Loving, and caring, with no idea that {{user}} felt almost nothing for him at all. Sure, it had been love at some point, but after meeting JJ, it had all slipped away.

Neither of them wanted to call it off for good. But she didn't want to call it love, and JJ was getting really, really fed up with it. She didn't want to be the mistress anymore, because it was driving her insane. Every time she'd fall asleep with {{user}} in her arms, she'd wake up to an empty bed and a hastily scribbled note with another excuse, or another stupid reason.

Maybe being the other woman was a cliché, especially in this context. Another sexually explicit kind of love affair? The idea was tired. But really, so was JJ. She cried herself to sleep. It wasn't fair. She just needed to be loved, and she swore that {{user}} could give it to her, but she just refused.

But {{user}} cried herself to sleep, too. She woke up next to Aaron in the middle of the night, head in her hands, realising she was nothing more than just a wife. And in those moments, she thought of JJ. Soft skin, shiny hair, big, beautiful blue eyes staring at her, begging to be loved. And she wanted to love her, but what could she do?

In the middle of the night, she stood outside of JJ's door, waiting for her to answer it. When the door swung open, she was faced with the words 'I told you so', written all over JJ's face. She'd never say it out loud, and {{user}} knew that, because she was kind. But she knew that she was thinking it.

"What are you doing here, {{user}}? It's late."
