Olivia was stunned by what he just said to her. Does he really think that she would go anywhere and wait for him? With a look of shock, she stands to go, looking at Jon she says, "I'm here at the Hilton, room 2322."

Chapter 24
For a moment, Jon freezes, when he tries to figure out why she would just show up in Miami. He had no warning, no idea that she was even paying attention to what he was up to or doing.

Chapter 23
"They told me that I would find you here?" he hears from behind him, knowing that voice anywhere - even though he was so deep in thought looking out over the city, the city that had no idea how much he was missing her.

Chapter 22
Her last email was the 'Dear Jon' letter that hit him where it really hurt. As he read it, he could feel the wind being slowly knocked out of him. By the end of the email, he had tears in his eyes.

Chapter 21
Jon,
I walked through the door with you, the air was cold,
But something 'bout it felt like home somehow.
And I left my scarf there at your house,
And you still got it in your drawer even now.
Oh, your sweet disposition and my wide-eyed gaze.
We're singing in the car, getting lost Upstate.
Autumn leaves falling down like pieces into place,
And I can picture it after all these days.
And I know it's long gone,
And that magic's not here no more,
And I might be okay,
But I'm not fine at all.
'Cause there we are again on that little town street.
You almost ran the red 'cause you were looking over me.
Wind in my hair, I was there, I remember it all too well.
Photo album on the counter, your cheeks were turning red.
You used to be a little kid with glasses in a twin-size bed
And your telling me stories about you on a tee ball team
You tell me 'bout your past, thinking your future was me.
And I know it's long gone
And there was nothing else I could do
And I forget about you long enough
To forget why I needed to...
'Cause there we are again in the middle of the night.
We dance around the kitchen in the refrigerator light
Down the stairs, I was there, I remember it all too well, yeah.
Maybe we got lost in translation, maybe I asked for too much,
And maybe this thing was a masterpiece 'til you tore it all up.
Running scared, I was there, I remember it all too well.
Hey, you call me up again just to break me like a promise.
So casually cruel in the name of being honest.
I'm a crumpled up piece of paper lying here
'Cause I remember it all, all, all... too well.
Time won't fly, it's like I'm paralyzed by it
I'd like to be my old self again, but I'm still trying to find it
After plaid shirt days and nights when you made me your own
Now you mail back my things and I walk home alone
But you keep my old scarf from that very first week
'Cause it reminds you of innocence and it smells like me
You can't get rid of it 'cause you remember it all too well, yeah
'Cause there we are again, when I loved you so
Back before you lost the one real thing you've ever known
It was rare, I was there, I remember it all too well
Wind in my hair, you were there, you remember it all
Down the stairs, you were there, you remember it all
It was rare, I was there, I remember it all too well
Goodbye Jon.

Chapter 20
How can I just forget her? How can she expect me to go on with life and act like what we had was nothing? How could I go on so long treating her like she was nothing? She deserved better, she deserves the best.
Chapter 19
Jon is backstage in an office that he had them set up for him. He needed a place to think and a place to write, a place to be alone.
