Con gives Jamie a teasing glance as they hear her parents talking in the kitchen. "I wish more people were like them - your mom couldn't care less what other people think of her opinion." He grins. "I like that."

The meal is finished in peace, Con finally able to unwind after the day, relaxing in this atmosphere. Polishing off the last slice of pizza, Con licks his fingers and prepares to pay, then make a phone call. He stands up and a sidelong glance proves that Mable is keeping a close eye on him and Jamie. Feeling ornery, he look down at Jamie. "You know, I really hate to continue disappointing your mom like this." A sly grin forms, and before anyone can react, he takes Jamie's hand to pull her up out of her chair, swinging her into a low dip. Not even thinking, Con presses his lips to hers, holding the kiss several moments for effect. Drawing away though, it suddenly hits him what he'd just done, and he stares Jamie in the eye as he holds her. Before he can stop it, his face turns several shades of red. He quickly rights Jamie, letting her go as a wave of embarrassment hits him like never before. He'd meant to tease, but the strange feeling in his gut that made his pulse race was not something he'd counted on.

He clears his throat and looks away from Jamie toward the back of the restaurant. "I gotta go make that call." Turning around, he goes quickly for the phone, his face still red.


Jason sees the flicker of disappointment in Katie's eyes, and for a moment, he's afraid he made a wrong move. But her words make him feel a little better...she was still willing to be his friend...and that's what he wanted. He could do this...Austin and Clint had been right...

He starts to say more, but as Katie changes the subject, he lets her, deciding that everything needed to be said had been stated.

He looks at the picture and smiles. "Wow. This is really good. Let me guess - it was Kyle who wanted you to do this?"
