Her hands are heavy in his, when she slips him the card. save the date

Clementine jerks her head towards the door to signal her exit and mutters, tell him I stopped by. It reminds Jack so much of Sawyer that his heart clenches.

He doesn’t mention she only drops by when he’s home. The same way he doesn’t mention that her eyes always linger on pictures of him and David as she leaves.

Instead, he leans the invitation against Sawyer’s rum - imagining the excuse on the horizon. His dad used to say that an ugly past is something you can't make better.

Jack finally gets it.
