Nate threw his head back when he laughed. This girl was great! Definitely no pushover. "What's so importatnt about age?" he wanted to know. "Especially with such a small difference?" "Hmmm, something interesting. The only thing I see so far that fitst that description is you," he had slammed his lips closed at the end of the first sentence, not repeating the end, about intereesting 'to do', but waited for his words to sink in, wondering if she heard the silent words.

Jackie grinned, liking that she had gotten the reaction she wanted out of him. "Well, I always feel like if I go out with a guy a lot older than me it's like dating my dad which is creepy. And if I go out with a guy younger than me it'd be like baby-sitting." She visibly shuddered, she had these opinions and no amount of coercing would get her to change her beliefs.
She raised a brow at what he said, a smirk of amusement on her full mouth. "Should 16 year olds really be talking like that? Besides, I'm not something to do. I'm a person to get to know. Please do remember that Nate, or you might need that protective cup after all."

Bemused that he was able to see that frisky streak again, Nate conceded. "Okay, so maybe I think it would be interesting to get to know you. I'd like to know how you expect to find Mr. Right if you keep in limited to only guys the same age as you."

Jackie noticed the song change to a slower one and she put her arms around Nate, grinning cheekily. "Well then, get to know me but you're going to be wasting your time my friend. I'm very stubborn about my beliefs, and don't think of me as a challenge, I'd eat you alive." She laughed. "Well I'm a firm believer in signs, I know if he's the one... That I'll get a sign." She knew it sounded strange and bordered on ridiculous, coming from someone like her but she did believe that if a person was going to be important in her life, she'd find a sign about said person.

"Just because you're not going to suddenly run off and elope with me, doesn't mean I can get to know who you are," Nate enjoyed the way her arms tightened around him. "So you're a romantic..." He thought about signs. Never believed in them. Not like he ever bothered to try. "How's that worked out for you so far?"
Pardon my absence... weekends are pretty much full of setting up for shows and making running interference on the drunk girls that try to dance on stage.

Jackie quirked a brow. "That's what I just said you know." She laughed it off as they swayed to the random slow song. "Hmmm, romantic? Maybe, I'm not sure about that. Romantic can mean a lot of things you know? I guess I'm just interested in what fate has in store for me. Nothing romantic about that, I guess; just extremely wistful to a fault."

(that should have said "does't mean i can't get to know you"... probably would have changed that whole post... ay yi yi I'm tired)
"Wistful..." Nate thought about the word. "You remind me of my uncle. He's been married twice, his first marriage to my aunt ended because she's just not the type to be married, and then his second wife died... but he still keeps looking for the special person," he shook his head. "I don't get it. I'd rather meet a bunch of people and see what comes of it than wait for someone specific." He asked a prying question. "So have you ever met 'the one'? Or any one who came close?"

Jackie quirked a brow, something she seemed to be doing a lot that night. "So you're implying that I've been married twice, divorced once and had a husband die on me?" She laughed. "Well I guess fooling around is all part of the plan, you have to live out your youth right?" She shrugged. "But I don't really want to do the chasing; wouldn't it be great if someone was chasing after me and not the other way around? Oh god I do sound like a romantic."

"Haha, no, just that even if you did have all that happen to you, I bet you'd still keep searching for 'the one'. It's sweet. Endearing. It makes you a lot less scary than you think you are," Nate told her. "You know, I think we can be friends. I like you. You're not too weird."

Jackie grinned at him. "Oh I am scary, I know it. But my brother and well, the rest of my family say it's really hard to be scary when I'm this tiny. Honestly, I can see their point." She shook her head in amusement. "Well you know I'd never say no to some friends. Riverside is quiet as fuck without any; at least I'll have some people to hang out with to kill the time."

"Sounds like a plan," Nate tightened his arms around Jackie to give her a brief hug. "I know I'll lose my damn mind without someone cool to hang out with.
Sorry, that was beyond lame.

(( It's cool. Lol. ))
Jackie grinned at his compliment and gave him a mock curtsy. "Why thank you sir; I'll be as cool as possible then. Gotta live up to your expectations and all that." She lay her head on his shoulder and sighed softly as she scanned the crowd that seemed to have gotten a lot denser. Jackie hadn't really noticed because she was so busy talking to Nate. Oh well...

"If there's one thing to know about me, Jackie, it's that I don't set expectations very high for anything." He felt the sigh more than he heard it. "Something wrong?" he tilted his head as far as his neck would allow, to try to see her face.

Jackie smiled. "Well that does seem like an intelligent way of doing things you know?" She pulled away, a bit confused. "Oh why? Is something the matter?" She laughed, dumbly. "If you're talking about the sigh, I sigh about everything... Even when it doesn't have anything to do with being sad." She heard the new song come on and felt relieved at the sudden upbeat music. She grinned. "Dance?"

"That's what I've been telling people for years. If you don't expect anything, you can't be disappointed. It's just common sense." He accepted her explanation at face value and didn't ask anymore. "I just don't want to bore you or anything. Let me know if you want to dance with someone else. Don't want to get in the way of any signs that may come your way," he teased her.
