Mission Impossible

Senna's POV

"Hey..." I type for the hundredth time before deleting. Yet again.

It's been three days since Harri found out the truth and the same number of days since I've heard from her. I've texted and called, of course, but have had no response.

Jax told me I should give her a bit of space and believe me, I'm trying. It has been almost twenty-four hours since my last attempt to contact her. I've been counting every minute. But I've resisted.

I keep thinking, or rather hoping, that she's on her end of the phone writing me the same message, but like me, she deletes it. I guess I just want to know that she is missing me as much as I am missing her.

Sorry Jax, twenty-four hours is enough, I think as I retype the message for the hundredth and one time and click send.

I reply to a text from Rafa,sliding my phone into my back pocket unable to look at Harri's blank message screen for any longer, before pulling on a comfy tour merch hoodie.

The boys have been great since it all went down. The twins have been texting me non-stop, while Beckett keeps asking me if I am eating enough. He even offered to Uber Eats me some food like he forgot the feeder that my Mum is. I swear he is such a Dad.

Hell, Jax hasn't left my side since. Probably for his sake as much as mine. The times he spends with Mum chatting over a coffee are pretty much the only times I've been left alone. Which is pretty fortunate because one look at my Twitter will tell you exactly why. Honestly, I've been making myself cringe.

The tabloids are going nuts of course, but not as much as the fans. Their conspiracy theories are hilarious. I'll admit Jax and I have had a few good laughs about the Sax shippers who seem convinced that Jax has broken my heart but then reality sets in and I start to remember my heart is actually broken and suddenly it's not so funny.

It's weird how someone you didn't even know existed three months ago can turn your whole world upside down. Like, how did I exist pre-Harri?

Because I've sure as heck have forgotten how, post-Harri.

I open the familiar race car curtains and stand in the window just soaking up a bit of the morning sun before I join Mum and Jax in the kitchen.

Mum is helping Jax through his situation at home and I guess being the mother that he needs. They seem really happy with the situation too. Like it fills a gap they both needed filling. And it helps me since it means she's not asking me the questions that I really don't want to answer.

"Morning, Ma," I say kissing her on the cheek.

She pushes a freshly made cup of coffee towards me offering me a sympathetic smile. The gesture alone tells me that Jax told her about Harri. I can't be too angry though since it saves me doing it. So I smile back and nod, reassuring her in some small way that I'll be okay, even if I don't quite believe it myself.

Jax oblivious to the silent exchange, interjects, "I was just telling your Mum about our next leg of the tour."

Oh shiitake! I forgot this was only a mini-break. We still have another leg remaining on the tour and we leave next week. I wince at the thought.

I love touring but I can't possibly leave with things the way they are between Harri and I. I look over at Jax. Panic written on my face and blurt, "we're running out of time!"

He places his coffee cup down with an intentional thud, spilling a little bit on the bench. "Just say the word, Sen and we're ready!" he asserts, wiping the spill with his sleeve to the dismay of my Mum who is already standing by with a cloth in her hand.

"Operation H is all systems go!" I reply.

He nods and excuses himself from the room, phone to his ear before I've even finished giving the all clear.

He looks like a man on a mission. I just hope it's not mission impossible.
