"Okay..." Jace trails off, weirded out. Joseph looks at Sai. "We're not having any more children."

Ace "Two." He sips his water. "I've got business in the next town over after that."

"I am your sister's boyfriend." Jace says.

Ace He shrugs. "How long are you here for?" He changes the subject.

Lol. It's okay.

Joseph sighs. "How about a cookie?"

Ace He nods. "Well, I'm from a place too. I have a younger brother, just by a year or so, and he's getting married soon." He says. "He's seventeen, but ...

First, lol, I am in fact not a he, but a she... Lol. Second, it happens. It doesn't really matter, lol.

Jace just looks at Jasmine, deciding to remain silent. "Hey, sweetie," Joseph gets her attention. "The man behind the counter can get you one."

"Nine isn't the worst." Joseph says. "You should have seen Kay when he was two. He couldn't scream, but it was bad."

Ace Sweet. Ace doesn't mind the sound of that. "So, Bella from a place," He says with a smile, "tell me about yourself."

Ace "Nah, no need." He smiles. "I'm not missing anything."

Joseph sits back at the table and sets Kalen on his lap, taking Sai's hand. "Such kids." He mutters. "We aren't any older, Joey." Sai whispers. "No, but we don't ...

Joseph shakes his head at them and sighs, standing to walk towards Kalen, as Jace smiles and kisses Rayah. "Me too." He whispers.

Ace She giggles and he has to smile, paying for her next drink.
