Mikey sat his coffee down on the small table beside the couch before sitting down on the couch and pulling his sketchbook from his bag, he sat cross-legged on the couch, flashing a smile in Jakkin's direction before focusing on his drawing.

"A pretty little thing like you should be having loads of fun. Dancing, kissing, live a little." Grinning at Mikey, Jak winked before turning his attention back to Ophelia.

She gave him a slightly withering look, not intentionally hostile, and muttered,
"A pretty little thing like me needs to find someone to dance with and kiss who isn't already . . . predisposed."
The last word came out thoughtful, when she noted the eye contact between Jak and the boy on the couch.
"Am I interrupting? I can go, I'm so sorry."

Mikey happened to look up in time to notice Jakkin wink, he grinned before looking back down to his drawing.

Chuckling, Jak looked into her eyes. "You remind me of little Akki, but with more bite. I hear tell she's had a few more looks lately than I would like. And no, you arent interupting, just admiring the view."

She laughed brightly and rolled her eyes, murmuring jokingly,
"Oh, lovely, another great guy who happens to be nice to me that's inaccessible."
She took another sip of coffee, leaning her head on her hands.
"Somehow, it's not so bad being outshined by another guy, as it is a girl."

"Now cutie, you are every bit as pretty as he is, you just need to loosen up. A smile, a wink, a kiss....gets a guy looking, and thinking."

She looked, for lack of a better phrase, mutedly horrified.
"I don't do first moves. And besides, my type makes the first move. That's why you probably wouldn't fall into that catagory. You're nice to me."
She laughed and then, hangover everpresent. winced, rubbing her temples with her fingertips.

Mikey looked up from his drawing and took a sip of coffee as he glanced around the room.

"Body language helps too....at the party you definitely had a 'dont come near me' look about you. He, on the other hand," Jak watched Mikey for a moment, "definitely has a welcoming look about him."

"I didn't want to be there," she said bluntly, "And that sort of got worse, as the night wnet on."
She took a sip and corrected herself, looking up at him with wide eyes.
"No offense to you, of course! I mean, it wasn't . . . that was the closest to a nice time that I had all night."

Lacuna smiled as she entered the comfy coffee shop. She always brightened her mood when she could smell coffee beans. She walked casually over to the counter and ordered a hot chocolate for Akki and black coffee for herself, she had remembered that's what Jakkin had rodered for her the last time they were here.

Jak grinned. "I enjoyed our dance, but I had the distinct impression you didnt. As I recall, you were quite anxious to end it."

She smiled softly and tilted her head, looking up at him from her coffee.
"Well, whatever impression I gave, I really did sort of enjoy it, and I appreciate it now, even if I didn't then."
She sighed and shook her head.
"I just have a sort of . . . . thing. I don't know. Inferiority pride complex or something."

Jak nodded thoughtfully. "Very much like Akki. She gets her feelings hurt so easily, she really doesnt believe anyone sees her as beautiful. Speaking of whom," Jak waved to Lacuna and Akki, inviting them over. With another long look at Mikey, Jak shrugged. He would like to spend some time getting to know Mikey...possibly kissing a little more, but he wasnt going to be doing it with Lacuna there.
