Pucker

Jeff? But... how? What's he doing here? I thought...

Jason lets his unspoken words trail off, seeing the worry in Katie's eyes. "I'm sorry."

Remembering that morning's spat, he awkwardly lets his hands slide off her shoulders, not even knowing if she wanted him near right now. "Is there anything I can do?"


"Lemonade?" Gage blinks and looks to the stand that was selling drinks. He'd always just drank water, since he could remember. He knew all the others he worked with had drank things like soda pop or beer, but he'd always been told he needed to stay away from those things. "Um..." He was free from the Agency now... and he did want to try this... "O... Okay. Yeah."

Waiting for Sapphire to get their drinks, he stands a bit awkwardly, his eyes forever roaming the park, always on guard.

Once Sapphire is handing him his drink, he looks a the straw for a moment, skeptically. Finally he takes a sip. His lips pucker and his left eye squints as the sweet and sour collide on his taste buds. Blinking, he looks at Sapphire with a bit of surprise. He hadn't quite expected that. But something made him want more. He takes another sip. This time it went down more smoothly.

Looking to Sapphire again, a faint smile just quirks the corner of his mouth as his eyes show pleasure. "I like it."
