[_to_the_bone]

Jack is curled up in an armchair, hanging onto her tea like a comfort blanket and looking mildly upset.

Life couldn't just stay normal for five minutes, could it?

Comments

[cheevy]

She gets hugged from behind.

He doesn't let go.

[_to_the_bone]

She nearly drops her tea!

"Who's there?"

[cheevy]

He smiles a little.

"Hi, Rose."

[_to_the_bone]

"Miniver! You're you again!"

Jack laughs. Almost not jealously.

[cheevy]

He nods.

"Ana told me how to fix it. I could fix you if you want."

[_to_the_bone]

"You kiss someone. But it won't work for us, you're not the right gender."

Jack's sorry. Otherwise...

[cheevy]

"Oh. Oh yeah. I forgot." He pouts. "That's unfortunate."

[_to_the_bone]

"We could try?"

I mean what BLUSH.

"Um."

[cheevy]

She's a girl, but it's JACK. He likes Jack.

Miniver shrugs, his own cheeks trning red. "Okay. If you want."

[_to_the_bone]

"If you think it would work, only. Might."

She can't help but laugh.

[cheevy]

He shrugs.

"Would it be so bad to try it anyway?"

[_to_the_bone]

"If you don't mind then," turning her face up, because she's short.

And smiling at him because it's still Jack.

[cheevy]

He doesn't mind. He LIKES Jack and he likes to be close to people. He likes to touch and to kiss and to be held.

He kisses her slowly, no deeper than she seems to want, gentle.

[_to_the_bone]

Jack pulls back, first, with a gasp.

"Oh dear."

Still a woman.

[cheevy]

He squeaks as she pulls away.

"I'm sorry..."

He's half afraid he's done something wrong.

[_to_the_bone]

"You're a lovely kisser," she informs him, and rests her forehead against his shoulder.
