Jace

I look at Rayah, "You'll do fine. Want my help?"

Rayah

I shake my head, "There's no way Im going infront of a crowd, no way in hell," I mutter, pulling back and runing a hand through my hair. And here comes the stress...

Jace

I think and smile, sitting up, "I have an idea. How well would you say you get along with Nic?"

Rayah

I look at him, confused, "Um...Fine? What does this have to do with it?"

Jace

I smile and run a hand through my hair, wondering if he could still do what he did back then, "How would you feel about him sharing your head during the speech? Giving it for you?"

Rayah

I study him before nodding, "But I don't know Nic that well...How do you know he would do that for me?" I ask.

Jace

I look back at her, "'Cause he just trashed my house. He owes me, and I would do it for you."

Rayah

I think for a second, "I'll say yes, only if you let me help you. I'll call over a friend of Jesse's, her name is Jackie, she's the daughter of Athena. She can clean you're house by just thinking about it. Will you let me call her?" I ask.

Jace

I flash a smile, "Sure, why not."

Rayah

I nod and take out my phone, texting Jackie to meet me by her house. I lead Jace downstairs and outside. Her house is across from Jace's. She meets me outside, he long brown hair draping over her one eye and her shades down by her eyes. "Why'd you need me?" She asks, throwing her keys in her pocket. I point to Jace's house across the street and she flashes a smile, "Really?"

Jace

The girl takes one look at my house and flashes a smile.

"It's worse inside," I add, "A lot worse."

Rayah

Jackie sighs and nods, walking inside. I follow her, knowing she could keep me safe, and hold Jace's hand as we walk. She pokes at the gravel before chuckling, "Who did this?" She asks.

Jace

Alyx and Nic come out of the back rooms and look at me, confused as to why there's someone else in the house. I glare at them and shake my head.

"Those idiots," I answer Jackie, "You can fix it, right?"

Rayah

Jackie looks at Nic and Alyx, smirking, before looking back at Jace, "Yeah, Not a problem."

She closes her eyes and the peices of the house slowly start turning to normal.

Jace

The house starts piecing back together and my brothers come back to me. I quietly tell Nic about the speech and he smiles.

"Ha, I've never been in control of a female body before," he murmurs, thinking, "Can I have some fun afterwards?"

"No," I elbow him, "Just get her through the speech."

He glares at me before turning his attention back to Jackie and walking towards her.
