Room 324, Friday Afternoon

[vanillajello]

Kate was a mess. A little bit. In a vague, numb way. Not that she would be showing that to people.

It had been a pretty long week; filled with thinking she was insane, and Christmas shopping, and talking about ballet, and theater, and people unexplainably falling madly in love, and sleeping with several blankets and wearing many many layers because her roommate was making their room cold.

Despite having made two separate trips to the mainland within a week, a part of her wanted to just follow Jack’s lead and get the hell off the island for the weekend. But it was only a week until she’d go back to Kansas for Christmas. Might as well stick it out on the island until then. There was a party on Sunday and everything.

And now she’d found a bunch of photos she’d forgotten about on her computer. They were from the spring, and featured a lot of people she hadn't seen or talked to in a while. Her girlfriends back in Kansas (and such awesome friends they were, having lost contact with her pretty much straight after she moved to Fandom), people from school, Gene, Benjamin. Seemed like half a lifetime away.

She looked at the pictures, comparing her life then to her life now. Deciding which was better wasn't an easy thing to do.

Leto had had a quiet week, and had managed to avoid most of the strangeness of the weekend before. Now he knocked lightly on Kate's open door to get her attention. He shouldn't avoid company altogether, after all.

"Hey," Jason said from the doorway. "Jest to clear things up a bit, if I did get ya pregnant then I wouldn't jest leave ya like I did. 'Cause that wasn't me, how I usually am."

Except it kinda was.

"Jest sayin' I wouldn't have left even if ya was comatose."
