She swung her arms while she walked, looking up to her anwser, " Business..." she growled, " My dad chose it. He handed it in and everything, I'm going to change it when I can" she suggested, " Unless you have any classes with me, then I'll stay..." she said and grinned warmly.

She stumbled a little when they got to the cement, blushing gently on embarassement she sighed and then walked backwards towards his house while facing him. " I have other courses but they're just for extra creds. I don't have enough." she sighed.

Jack smirked at her when she swung her arms, and grinned. He nodded when she spoke. "Oh. Business, huh? I don't think I'm in that. But I might be in one of your other classes..." he shrugged. "We'll see." With a drawn-out breath, he took a few more steps towards his home.

He laughed lightly when she stumbled on the cement -- once he was sure she wasn't going to fall. He rubbed the back of his neck, and nodded to the rest of what she said, though didn't reply as they made their way towards his house.

Sierra frowned when he said he didn't take it, wishing she never had to take it. She walked on with him and nodded hopefully, walking quietly the entire way, shifting her bag to her other shoulder and glanced up ahead, looking away from the roads that led to her house and concentrated on His.

Soon enough, his house was in sight, and she looked at him, wondering if he was at all happy to be home. She breathed in and waited for himto lead her on when they got to the steps... his parents would probably be home.

Jack looked over at her when she frowned, and shrugged. He kept his pace up all the way towards his home. He cast another glance in her direction at the cue of her moving her bag, hoping she might speak -- an odd urge, even for him -- though was not surprised when she didn't.

He let out a long breath as they made it towards his home. His parents were there, already -- cars in the driveway giving that away. He squeezed Sierra's shoulder, and smirked. "Here we are," he mumbled, wondering again of his parents reaction to their peculiar relationship.

Sierra smiled gently amused that he was anouncing his house like she had never been there before. Yet not always when his parents were home, and they tried to take advantage of that but it didn't always work.

" Alas... we are" she added, regripping her bag and then heading up the steps, grabbing his hand, " What-- scared of your own parents?" she winked, trying to keep the mood warm, hoping he was like her and shouldn't pay too much attention of his parents liking her. It only brought stress.

Jack smirked in response to the gesture that formed on Sierra's face. He exhaled loudly, and walked up to the door. He peered in through one of the windows, and chuckled.

"Scared of my own parents?" He rolled his eyes. "Of course not." He grinned. "But, you know, we've already discussed..." he trailed off, though picked back up, "They'd freak out if they knew what we'd been up to." His grin widened for a second, and he squeezed her hand before opening the door.

"Hey, mom, dad, I'm home." He announced.

Sierra grinned with him when he spoke, and chuckled when he rolled his eyes and protested, " Sure you're not," she agreed sarcasticly, and then blushed lightly her grin still on, " Then they don't need to know, unless you blow it..." she said in a slight whisper as they entered.

She breathed in and glanced around his home curiously once again, taking everything in, making sure their hands were held, and squeezing them when she heard the voice of Jack's mother calling his name, and approaching them, he expression fell at bit seeing Sierra, and Sierra bit her lip a bit and took a step closer to him and glanced at him.

Jack's mother wasn't at all rude though, and greeted Sierra aswell, welcoming her back and then clearing her throat and waiting for Jack's father.

Jack grinned back at her, albeit nervous. He walked in and looked around. Just as he'd remembered it. His mother was a little apprehensive towards Sierra -- not that he'd been expecting much else -- and he looked around for his dad.

His father showed up a little later, coming out of the kitchen, and nodding almost passive-aggressively to the young couple. "Mmm, welcome back, Jack. Sierra." He nodded to the girl with a small, half-grunt, before walking back into the kitchen.

Jack's neck moved a bit, he was nervous about his father's reaction. Though, he ignored it for now.

Sierra saw his nervousness, and hoped he was okay, not finding his parents quite a threat yet. She pulled her hair from his face and decided to act like a harmless girlfriend, that they'd hopefully expect.

Sierra nodded to her mother and did look a little intemidated by Jack's father, yet smiled sweetly as she could and thanked him quietly. Squeezing his hand tightly as she waited, the room in an awkward silence, not quite sure what to say, but was sure that she wanted to stay with Jack. His mother glanced once at their closeness they seemed to hold, and put her hands by her neck as she was about to speak, " I'm sure you two had a great trip....?" she said to break the silence.

Sierra hoped that they really didn't mind her, and that they were just a bit protective that he was adopted and well, most adoptive parents seemed to be like that.

Jack blinked a few times, and glanced over at Sierra. She seemed a little more put-off than his father than he had been, though, it was understandable. He was glad when his mother glanced at them and broke the awkward silence -- if only for a few seconds.

"Uh, yeah." Jack nodded. "It was a lot of fun." He did his best to avoid blushing, though winced at the wording he had used -- looking up at the ceiling innocently and waiting for something else to happen.

ooc: Glad you didn't forget. ^^;

Ic: Sierra nodded after him, her voice speaking in nothing more but a soft crock, " Y-Yeah--Ahmmm" she said clearing her throat embarassingly and repeated herself hoping to sound better, " Yes it was" she said softly, trying to be polite for the sake of staying. She pulled lightly on Jack's hand wanting to head either to his room again, or his living room.

Jack's mother raised an eyebrow suspiciously, " I hope everything went... well..." she said before giving a stern glance at Jack, before crossing her arms over her lap, " You two can go off now, I'm going in the kitchen." she sighed. Sierra took advantage when she turned around and pulled him to where she thought was the living room, and blushed to see it a bedroom. " Oops" she whispered before taking him back into the living room and sighing, " They hate me, with a passion"
she said frowning,

OOC:
>.< I'm so sorry I disappeared! IRL stuff came up. Anyways, back now.

IC:
Jack looked around as Sierra spoke. He rubbed the back of his head as she made an attempt to be polite, and play off the possible impromptu, inappropriate pun he'd accidentally made. He looked over at her when she tugged on his hand, though his eyes quickly flickered over in his mother's direction.

He nodded to her, and nodded. "Alright, mom." He let Sierra pull him around, smirking when she brought him to a bedroom. He offered her a quick grin, and moved to the living room. "No, they don't. Why do you think that?" He asked, in reply to her negative comment.

Ooc: Its ok! Glad you came back ^^ Missed ya.

Ic: Sierra blushed harder at his grin, yet managed a small smile. She sighed when he asked what made her think things and she shuddered at his Dad's tension and between them... just at the thought and sat down on his couch, making herself comfortable if she could. " I dunno-- just.... your dads a bit scary" she breathed, pulling her hair from her face.

She pulled at his shirt for him to sit by her, " Maybe they aren't used to me yet...." she said, trying to overcome her negative activity, " You're used to meh I hope," she smiled warming the mood, her grin proudly flashing on her oddly white teeth as she blinked just to add to her innocence.

OOC:
=p Thanks. I had to come back to our awesome RP, of course.

IC:
Sierra's blush only furthered Jack's grin, which seemed a bit of an unending cycle. He looked at her shudder, though, sat down next to her when she spoke about his father. "He's just..." he tried to explain, though, cut himself off and let her continue to speak. He slid over closer to her at the pulling of his shirt, and nodded.

"That's right. They just aren't used to you, yet." He rubbed her arm lightly. "Just give them some time." He grinned at her words, and chuckled. "Oh, yes. I'm very used to you at this point." He poked her arm, and lay back a bit further.

Sierra found his comforting very soothing, and she glanced at the time and growled to see the day go by and take forever by the time they got here. " I'd Hope so..." she said tucking her legs in on the couch and leaning along Jack. It was a small sign of affection, if their parents walk in she was sure they couldn't complain.

She stared at the blank Television before looking towards him, chin up, and layed it on his shoulder before she wrinkled her nose and pouted her lower lip after she spoke, " School in a few days..." she whispered. " You scared?" she asked, it being entirely new year.

ooc: We should time skip soon.

OOC:
Yeah, to when?

IC:
Jack grinned at her a final time, and nodded. He rubbed her arm for a while longer, as she slid up beside him, and smiled as he looked ahead idly. He let his gaze drift upwards, before falling back down to her when she spoke.

"Mmm. Yeah, I'm not looking forward to it." He quirked an eyebrow, and chuckled. "But, no, I'm not afraid. It's just school." He turned so his face was close to hers, and smiled. "Besides. We might have some classes together. Could be fun."

ooc: School. ^^ First week could have already passed, so we can get our plot going.

Ic: Sierra snorted, " Fun? Please..." she said closing her eyes, " Torture's more like it" she grumbled, breathing in and exhaling a long sigh. " Exams, drama, tests, work, studying.... " she frowned, " No, lets have fun in bed time." she said and then smiled, leaning to press a peck on his lips.

" Jack I--" she said blinking clearing her throat seeing the quick kiss just part and was unsure of what to say, she shook her head to recatch her phrase, " Sorry, theres food in the fridge if you two would like" she said seeming a bit stunned. " And your school called a few days ago, your scheduals ready to be picked up, Jack" she said worriedly watching him.

OOC:
Alright, I'll let you decide when to do it.

IC:
Jack chuckled at her remarks, and rubbed her back for a few seconds. He blushed lightly at the words 'bed time', and leaned forward to her quick, gentle kiss. His eyes widened when he looked at her, though, he turned soon enough.

He blinked a few times when his mom came in, though nodded to her and tried to make the blush vanish from his face. "Oh, uh, alright, mom." He nodded. He smiled weakly to her. "Sure. I'll go pick it up, sometime soon."

ooc: After a few posts then. Like 3 each? ^^

Ic: Sierra moved her face away slightly when she approached and blushed when he did. She winced a bit at her reaction, yet didn't move entirely away from him. Holding onto an arm of his, she couldn't bring herself to speak. Until she left she dropped her head on his side and groaned, "ugh- That was my fault.." she glowered.

She raised her head to change the conversation, " I already have my timetable." she said sighing, " I hate my courses, " she then stretched, " Maybe I should run away somewhere closer to school... away from my parents
she smirked.

OOC:
Sure. Just tell me when.

IC:
Jack rubbed the back of his head, though quickly dispelled what Sierra had said. "No, it wasn't. It wasn't really anything, anyways. Don't worry about it." He let out a quick, faintly-audible exhale, before glancing in the direction his mother had left from.

"Oh?" He asked, looking her in the eyes as she raised her head. "Mmm," he mumbled, when she pointed out how she hated her courses. He chuckled at her last comment. "Always talking about running away to somewhere, huh?"
