#Chapter31
/"I’m going for a run … I’ll pack when I get back./" He makes to move away, but falters, reaching out, he shoves my shoulder so that my laptop slips slightly. I snap my chin up to look at him, surprised, and identify the wariness and the glint of playful. He’s trying to make amends; he’s trying to smooth it over and get back to yesterday too. I relax with a sigh; there’s my Jake, back to being adolescent, trying to make me smile and it’s working. Our stupid juvenile way.
/"I’m suing you for sexual harassment./" I chuckle shyly. Making light of it all, hopeful that it’ll work. My heart still beating fast, wanting to just let this go.
/"I’ll blame Jack Daniels for my misdemeanors. I was in no way in control of my faculties last night./" He smiles, filled with relief, the tension between us evaporates and he ruffles my hair in his irritating manner.
