Everybody's headed home. Now what?
Wedding night. Awkward. Knowing you I think you probably just wanna stay up all night watching Hope sleep. That sounds good to me.

Hayley stands in the doorway.
Hayley: Jack...
Hayley takes a few steps towards him, joining Jackson on the balcony.
Hayley: When I told you that the wedding was the right thing to do for our pack, there’s something else that I should have told you. I should’ve told you that when I first got to New Orleans, I was terrified, pregnant. For a long time, basically alone. And then one night, a wolf appeared out of the woods and I knew that I was safe.
Jackson smiles to himself but averts his gaze.
Hayley: From the moment I saw you, I -- I knew I could trust you. You never made me feel ashamed about being a hybrid, or questioned why I had to lie to you about Hope.
Jackson: Well, I told you I love you. I meant it.
He looks away again.
Hayley: Yeah. And that’s the first time anyone’s ever said that to me.
Jackson stares at her in shock.
Hayley: I want you to know that… I didn’t marry you for all those people. I married you for me. That’s what I should’ve told you.
Jackson takes a moment to processes the gravity of this before he pulls Hayley into a passionate kiss.]
