"Its better than actually working or something." I reply with a small grin, shrugging my shoulders a bit. I roll my blue eyes as Jacob tries to come up with an excuse before I shake my head. "None of my business." I say, running a hand through my red hair and not looking at him. Who was I to tell him what to do? I bring my coffee to my lips again to take a sip before reaching over to poke his shoulder playfully. "Lighten up, have some fun." I say, smiling up at him as we walked.

"Not really.." He mumbled. "Too much time to think, to read past the fake happiness in our damn house." He rubbed his face, grunting as she said it wasn't her business, then poked him and told him to lighten up. He couldn't help thinking his shrink would say the same thing. 'Lighten up, let it go. It's not your fault.'
But it was..he'd been drinking, driving, and it was his failt their dad was dead and their brother was paralyzed...
Jacob swallowed the knot in his throat. "Sorry.." He rasped, and suddenly felt sick, snuffed out the barely smoked cigarette and dropped it in an ash tray they passed.

I raise my eyebrows a bit at his grumble, not quite catching what he said as a truck rumbled by. I let outa soft sigh, brushing my hair from my face as we kept walking. I grin over at him hesitantly, hoping that the awkwardness would soon fade- but I didn't really know how to lighten the mood. "So. Favorite color?" I say randomly, looking up at Jacob curiously.

Jacob glanced her way, and allowed the change of subject gratefully. He didn't even auestion it or paise to think. He didn't want to dwell. "Mm..blue. Yours?"

I raise my coffee to my lips to take a sip, nodding thoughtfully at his reply. "Mmmm, violet is pretty." I reply, shrugging my shoulder as I nudge Jacob with my elbow playfully. "Favorite activity." I state, brushing my red hair from my face.

"That's easy. Playing drums." He chuckled, relaxed. "Yours? And..hm, favorite quote." He scratched at the scruff along his jaw.

"Writing." I reply simply, raising my eyebrows at him thoughtfully. "That, dear sir, is a tough one." I sigh thoughtfully, taking another sip of my coffee. "Love looks not with the eyes, but the mind- Shakespeare." I finally say, nodding slightly.
