For a long time, there was nothing heard in Jess's living room other than her sobbing and Noah's shushing, accompanied with some gentle reassurance, trying to comfort her from her emotional pain. 

She found her meltdown unexpected. Could it be because of the threat to her life or the last confrontation she had with Noah, with him, verbalizing his feelings and expectation for the two of them, while she couldn't decide where to go because of the memory of just one freaking night? 

She knew deep inside her heart that their feelings were mutual. She wanted Noah as much as he wanted her! 

But that memory of their first night that Noah didn't remember was like a shackle that stopped her from moving forward to Noah's waiting arms.
