As promised--a ficlet where we get Jake's reaction to news of The Date.  And by ficlet, I mean pretty darn short (by my standards).

Whee! Oh, Jake. That is so priceless. He can read her like a book. ;)

I heart you.

Jake's such a scamp, isn't he? We both know he and Mickey totally cheat at cards, despite his protestations to the contrary. ;)

Now I'm picturing poker game hilarity with Jake, Mickey, Peter and Rose.

Oh my. ;)

Yay! Jake and Rose...yeah, they work well together--at least, I like to think they do, and so they are written that way!

I love how Jake thinks. It really is a good dynamic to add in the mix of Mickey and Rose. It's nice to have Rose calling Peter by his name - such a tell. *dance* (like snoopy for you info) Thanks for the tide-over... Tomrrow is so far away!

I think this works splendidly as a ficlet, and I'm glad you posted it. Love the continued sweetness whenever Rose says Peter instead of Carlisle. Or something. I'm delirious today.

You're no more delirious than I, that's for sure. Thanks for the suggestion of posting it independently :)

Feel better!
