Ah, yes. Keeping that comment to himself will surely benefit the both of them in this scenario. John pauses as well. “I thought we were talking about Google.”

Huffs a laugh, but quiety. “Key word: *apparently*.”

Touches a finger to his nostril, sucking in air through his clenched teeth when he pulls it back to see fresh blood. A sinner got a little smart when he was replacing the bloodied ropes around their wrists. This is what he gets for being courteous-

But, why?

Well, it was quiet when he was gone. Now, it’s still quiet but with an added disgruntled hum every now and then.

Since when did Jacob start caring about other people’s opinions?

Well, in that case- It gets boring when it’s too quiet around here.

Snorts.

She doesn’t want that.

No.

Hey, she’s talking to the father of her future child. Show a little decency.

Frowns. “Darling, I’m not leaving. It’s gonna take a lot more than a sour mood to drive me away from you.“ Displays his ring finger then wiggles it. “I made a promise.”

Pulls her into a hug after scrunching his hand into her hair at the nape of her neck.

“Say it to my-“ Glances down, settling his heels back on the floor with a defeated sigh. “...Face.”

Grimaces. “You’re usually better than that, Jayne.”

He misses her more than she knows.

He’ll allow it... for now.

Stop your tears; he’s back, bitches.

As expected.

He doesn’t mind. It’s a bonding experience.
