“Alright,” Jack grinned a little nervously. “Then I expect to be informed when you are mad.”

"Fair enough, but I expect the same." Eva said seriously

“Agreed,” Jack sighed, pulling up to the window.

They ordered and received food, mostly in silence, causing Eva to eat hers on the drive back to avoid saying anything. She was finished before they could get to the next corner, which was OF COURSE because popcorn chicken was easy to eat, and NOT because she was a pig or anything

“So,” Jack drawled after an unbearably long pause. “I told you I’m picking up Kait today, right?”

"Huh?" Eva blinked, surprised by the sudden noise. "Oh... Oh, yeah, you told me." she smiled. She'd completely forgotten about it, of course.

“And Xander and Cass are coming back,” Jack hedged, trying to sound casual. “So, I thought I’d bring Kait home, let her get a few things, meet you, before I dropped her off.”

"Ah, that sounds... nice..." Eva said hesitantly, trying to keep a smile fixed on her face. It was pretty obvious that if things didn't work out today, no matter how much in love they were, it wouldn't work.

“She’s gonna love you.” Jack reached for her hand, whether to reassure her or himself, he wasn’t sure. He’d talked briefly to Kait about Eva and was fairly confident that they’d get along. Cass, on the other hand, was another story; and he was worried she might say something to Kait to bias the girl.

"You know I'm not great with kids, Jack..." Eva sighed, worried

"She's gonna love you 'cause I love you." Jack squeezed her hand.

"I hope so.." Eva said defeatedly, not wanting to argue.

“She will.” Jack said softly but fiercely as he pulled into his driveway. Kait would like Eva; Cassandra wouldn’t spoil this for him, he’d make sure of it. he pulled out the key and circled around to open the door for Eva.

Eva slipped silently out of the truck, hugging Jack the moment her feet toughed the ground.

Jack sighed, hugging her back and pressing a kiss to the top of her head. “Lemme eat and we’ll leave, alright?”

"In a minute..." Eva said softly, not making any move to let him go.

“Sure.” Jack held on, stroking her hair.

Eva finally let him go after a long minute that seemed way too short for her liking, looking a bit sheepish. "Guess I can let you eat now..."

Jack kissed her, not giving a shit that Carl was still outside and probably not minding his own business. “Okay, inside.”
So maybe he did care, but only a little. He grabbed the fast food bag before closing the truck door and heading inside.

Eva followed him, a little too worried to realize there were houses around with people who could have seen that display
