Welcome to Gaia! ::

Max looked at her with a grin. "Why its quite simple you stupid girl I..."

Jake bit hard on his lip suddenly and turned his head away. He shook for a moment fighting the control over him and looked back at her his eyes slightly misted over. "I'm sorry..." He was upset at himself more than anybody else. He moved to the bed and sat down and lowered his head. "Max....everybody is going to leave me....anybody who I ever thought cared about me left me to the institution..." He shook his head to clear them from the tears that threatened him. Griping his wrist tightly he turned his head away from her. "I'm sorry...just these new people scare me...I'm not the social type and Max has been talking again...Lisa and John dont help either..." He looked back at her and bit his lip hard enough to draw blood. "I still adjusting..." He hated himself because he saw the film of tears when she pulled him in. He stood up and walked back to her hesitantly pulling her in his arms. "I will never hurt you..."

Jake shook his head slightly, it was him not her than was blowing up over something little as that. He was about to speak when she stood up and kissed him. His heart leapt into his throat as he stood there with his lips against hers. Max was silent as he was flabbergasted why she would even do that. The other voices were just as silent except for Melissa.

"You are loved, see?" Wrapping his arms about her he let the kiss go on for awhile longer before finally pulling back a bit. His eyes were half-closed as it still affected him. For a moment he couldnt move then smiled as he lowered his head til his hair covered on side of his face. "I love you." He wouldnt let either one of them be left behind, if they were to leave them he would stay with her. But now that he was back in his mind he knew that Jacky would have none of them being left behind and Seth was her best friend so he had friends. "You dont deserve friends." "Shut up, for just this shut up." Max quieted down though he still seethed with rage. Jake moved back to the bed and sat down pulling her with him and wrapped his arms about her. "I'm sorry...I was withdrawing into myself..."

"It's alright." she whispered as she was pulled onto the couch with him. She felt like whatever had just happened had been simply a dream and she had woken up to find him. she must have had died. He was human....that was obvious but he was perfectly flawed. He made her love everything she hated.

"You just worried me. I thought you were about to slit my throat." she said as she sat in his arms. She had been no where near as scared as she had sounded but she wasn't going to let Max ruin things. She could tell that was what his plans were.

"I love you too." she replied as she looked at her bag. It hadn't been much more that a backpack really but it was easy. "We should probably make a list of thing we'll need to buy for the trip. save ourselves the trouble and it'll give us something to do without dealing with everyone else." she joked as she sat back and reached out her arm for the bag, grabbing the notebook and a pencil.

She wrote down the list and remembered Krysta had brought them a box of canned and boxed food. All was left was the need for a cooler, fresh fruits and vegetables and anything that Jake could think of. She wouldn't let him know that she had a credit card that held 99% of her inheritance on it and it was plenty to stock the van for the drive to their first stop.

Quietly she signed to herself mouthing the words so she could remember what she wrote better and from the corner of her eye she could tell that Jake was lost, so she repeated the list slowly outloud with the signs.

Peaches, apples, nectarines, celery, squash, spinach, peanut butter (fresh), olive oil, corn, tomatoes..... she grudgingly wrote down some of the fresher meats that her mother had used to teach her to make. Squid, Cod, Salmon, Shrimp, Lobster, Talapia, lemons, limes, potatoes, bread, flour, eggs, cheese, bacon, and ICE

"The fish we an get for fresh when we get to the beach house but the rest of these are smarter to get here in the city. But can you think of anything else/ I can typically cook most things....I just haven't really perpared anything outside of vegetarian meals so what I need I can't think of."

Jake nuzzled her a little and shook his head. "I wouldnt allow him to do that to you." He nodded at her suggestion for things and listened as she rattled the list off. Though he thought that she had signed something but he didnt know what it was. He shrugged it off while Max being his paranoid self took note of it. He listened as she rattled the list off, all of them sounded tempting in one fashion or another though he never had squid before. "We'll need some spices too."

"And razors..." "Shut up Lisa." He bit his lip a little bit and looked at her. "Though how are we gonna afford this? Maybe they have more on that card..." He scratched the underside of his chin in thought and chuckled a bit. "Oh well we'll figure it out." He also wondered idly what the others would think of the list and if she would teach him how to cook.
