I look down and she runs a hand through her hair, shaking her head, "No you didn't. Jackie's too much of a goodie-goodie."

Nic

I pull Jackie onto my lap and shrug, "Don't believe me then. It happened, and it was good."

Jackie

I lean against him, studying Rayah, and she shakes her head again, "Didn't happen. I know Jackie, and she wouldn't ever do something like that until your married."

Nic

I shrug, "Speaking of marriage, are you seriously going to wait until Jace pops the question to.. you know?"

Jackie

She shoots a look at me, giving me the - im gonna kill you, look, before glancing at Jace, "I don't know what your talking about."

Nic

I study her, "It wasn't Jacks who told me anything, by the way. Jae would have said something if you had, and I sure as hell know he's pure as ever."

Jackie

She sighs, "We're never together, and when we are, something like this happens. When we get out of college, when I'm around...twenty- five, then that's probrably when it'll happen."

Nic

I study her before looking at Jace, whose legs twitch again before he wakes, dazed, "You've got all winter break. He needs to relax anyway..."

He looks at me, yawning, "What?"

Jackie

I stay quiet, awkwardly looking at the floor.

Rayah

Awkward, I run a hand through my hair, hesitating before walking into the kitchen.

Nic

I look at Jackie, "I should have shut up and let you talk, shouldn't I?"

Jace

I yawn again and sit up fully, rubbing my eyes before following Rayah.

Jackie

I shake my head, "No. You did good."

,,,,,,,,,,,
Rayah

I pour myself some coffee, thinking about what they said.

Nic

I study her before kissing her forehead, "I made things awkward though."

Jace

I lean against the counter and look at her, "You look like you're feeling better."

Jackie

I smile, "S'Fine."

I think about it, "I'm going to go talk to Rayah about it. Try to talk to Jace."

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Rayah

I nod, turning around to face him, "Yeah."

Nic

I nod and kiss her quickly, "Ight."

```
Jace

I study her before crossing the kitchen and taking her in my arms in a hug, "I missed you."

Jackie

I smile and kiss his cheek before walking to the kitchen.

,,,,,,,,,,
Rayah

I hug him back, "I missed you too, Jae."
