you >D [no3; appropriate no, with all that's goin' on]

[wantedtofindher]

[why had he agreed to this? Going on a blind date. Clay wouldn't have agreed to this in a million years normally, but.. apparently, he had to get out of the house, 'get some' in his roommates' encouraging words.

So here he was.. waiting at the reserved table for his mystery date to arrive. His back was to the door and he was sitting up straight. A little nervous, apprehensive, but not fidgeting...

Maybe she'd be nice. So what. He wasn't.. ready for this]

lol perfecto!

[ohnowulikehikes]

[Jenna's coworker that constantly helped her out all the time told her about this guy that her husband met a while back. Seeing that they both loved motorcycles, they seemed to have a bit in common. So, when Jenna offered to buy said bike from her friends husband, they told her about this nice guy who just seemed to need a good woman--in their words, and thus the two of them were set up on this random date thing! So, with a dress that her coworker gave her, it was shit, and dark blue with a jacket, and matching blue stiletto heels. Jenna threw on some red lipstick and headed out to this restaurant that they had told her to meet him at. Walking in about ten minutes late due to traffic, Jenna made her way toward the figure she saw sitting there with his back to her. Getting to the edge of the table, Jenna cleared her throat and spoke softly. Having not put together the name with the person sitting in front of her.]

Hello? Clay--correct?

it is >D

[wantedtofindher]

[this was it. Clay was a little concious when people approached him now, and those steps heading for him.. whilst they didn't put him instantly on edge like, say, a year ago? Were rousing enough]

Yeah, I -- Jenna? [to say he was shocked was an understatement.

Clay started up a little faster from the chair, thoughts far from holding out the seat for his - oh, god - date now]

Re: it is >D

[ohnowulikehikes]

Holy shit! [She gasped hard, and reached a hand out quickly to grab at his chair which almost got knocked over onto the floor behind him.]

It's you! How! When? Oh wow, I need to sit. [She actually felt like she might faint, which would be SO ODD to happen right now! But she also had to do something that would bug her to her dying day unless she just reached out and touched his sleeve. Just to prove it was really him, and he was alive. Her hand inched out to try to touch skin, cloth, anything of his that would prove he was alive, and breathing!]

[wantedtofindher]

Jenna... [Clay barely notices her touch, because he's rounded the space of the chair and table edge between them to wrap his arms around her. His own test.. maybe more. Oh, fuck...] It's... really you. [he drew away to look at her, almost cupping her face, but...] Wow. I don't... believe it. How -?

[ohnowulikehikes]

[He hugs her, and Jenna's arms come up quickly to wrap around his middle. She almost sobs with happiness at seeing him. Not even hearing his questions.

What?

[wantedtofindher]

You're... okay. [he smiles, almost letting it burst forth from his lips] I'm so glad. [he'd heard... rumours and stuff, but.. wow. This was -] So, I... guess I don't have to worry about the smalltalk now, huh?

[ohnowulikehikes]

[Was she okay? Not really, her heart was a big issue for her now, and the coma wasn't fun. Yet, someone paid for her stay, thankfully, and the surgeries that she needed. Not that Jenna asked, but she would just smile, nod and be supportive right now. He really looked like he needed it from her.]

I'm okay. [She let out a hard laugh, covering her mouth in order to keep some propriety as she did so. Then she lunged forward and hugged him again.

Fuck the small talk, Clay!

[wantedtofindher]

[he laughed, surprised but warm as she hugged him. His arm slowly crossed over her back to hold her in place. Man, she felt tiny. But then everyone did around him. She felt.. exactly like he thought she would. And he had thought about it.

He may not be that kind of guy, but - c'mon. She was pretty, and sweet... and he always felt this urge to protect her when she was around.

That one coincidence in a store with her jerk of a boyfriend, to meeting her at the house -- to everything] It's... really good to see you.

[ohnowulikehikes]

[He hugged her, and the entire world just melted away for her. Holding him tight to her small frame.]

I prayed that I would see you again, I did!

[wantedtofindher]

...I'm glad I got to see you. [his lips barely brush her forehead as he draws back again. It's not intentional.. but it affects him anyhow] We... should we sit?

[ohnowulikehikes]

I'm more glad I got to see you, the not knowing in the end. It was eating me alive. [He pulls back, and she almost could feel his chin stubble, the press of soft lips against her head. Yet, he is gone. Making Jenna gasp louder than before. Her hands reach out for him without much thought.

Then she is nodding, the action is almost wild. Her pinned up hair almost came out of its pinning as she did so.]

Yes! Please...yes!

[wantedtofindher]

[smiling, he does move to pull out her seat. But his whole posture is now relaxed, more on edge with excitement, than nerves now. Wow. He couldn't think of what to say, yet there was so much...]

I guess.. you heard about Whitney? If you.. [survived. Had she looked for him? He had tried.. once he had been better. Wanting to go to her grave but there wasn't one.

But he hadn't known... he wished he'd known. Reaching across, he took her hand briefly]

[ohnowulikehikes]

[Jenna was smiling from ear to ear herself, giddy with excitement and many other emotions that she could not put her finger on currently. He pulled out her seat, and that made her turn her head to smile up at him. Beaming wildly. She was chuffed to see that it was him. God must have been watching out for her somewhat? Right?]

I...I did, my friends mentioned that you had recently lost a sister. I just never thought to put two and two together when they told me your name. I am so sorry! [She reached out and put her hand over his, her eyes filling with tears that did not spill. Jenna wanted to believe that they both had survived, but she had no idea where or how to look for them. Though she scoured newspapers and so much more. Even taking a trip back there to see, which prompted her to believe she saw Jason again. Probably a hallucination from her PTSD, but it freaked her out

OOC
