Asleep

Jay nods slowly, looking down at his empty glass again, lost in thought. Rosetta's question brings his gaze back up again and he gives her a smile... a softer smile than normal. "Yeah... I think everything's okay. It's just time I said some things that have been on my mind." 

Thinking for another moment, he nods again with a little more confidence. "Don't worry. I just don't wanna have to repeat myself a zillion times, so it would be easier if everyone was together. " He tries to reassure her, but he knew she would worry anyway. She always had such great concern for her family, and he appreciated that about her. This time though, she'd have to wait until tomorrow night. He still needed to figure out exactly how he'd say what he wanted and... muster up his courage too.

"Say a little prayer for my nerves though, eh?" He chuckles. "I'm not used to talking in front of big crowds."

As Katie's arm goes around him and her head comes to lay on his chest, Hunter's eyebrows arch in surprise. He knew she must be utterly exhausted, but he hadn't really expected her to take to him quite like this. He didn't mind though. On the contrary... it... felt nice. 

Smiling, he lowers his arms from behind his head, settling one around Katie's shoulders, while his other hand rests on hers. Her words of staying like that forever give him a strange warm feeling down deep... as if perhaps he was relearning what it felt like to have someone care about him. And... the feeling was mutual. 

"I think I could handle that," he responds quietly. Lifting his arm a little, his hand combs through Katie's hair, tucking it away from her face before his arm wraps back around her shoulders again. Leaning his head back against the tree, he could think of a more comfortable place. The ground was hard, the bark behind his head was rough, and yet... having Katie here with him like this held such a quiet peace that he might like to stay like this forever too. 

Slowly, slowly, Hunter's eyes drift shut until his breathing had grown even quieter beneath Katie's head. He'd enjoyed the day, but he was rather tired himself, and it was just so nice here... 

"You kidding? I'm not gonna tell him." Jason takes a handful of popcorn to munch on as he grins. "Your job is to let him forget he was gonna test my blood tomorrow morning." 

Settling back in the comfortable seat as the movie begins, Jason eats some more popcorn and shares the soda pop with Misty too, remaining quiet for a long while and just enjoying the plot. It didn't take too long though, for the popcorn to be gone, leaving his hand free to sneak over and across Misty's shoulders, pulling her a little closer to him. 

As the movie plays on, Jason finds his mind wandering a bit, still watching and taking it in, but half of his focus had strayed to Misty. Leaning his head over ever so slowly, he places a soft kiss on her cheek before grinning at her. They weren't in a well-lit restaurant now, and nobody was sitting behind them.
