And here he was offering her a chance when he'd fight back because he knew she'd hate having everything come easily, but even then, she wasn't satisfied with that. WOMEN.

Jake frowned.
"You make it sound as if I want someone else. But no, I'm not lying. I want to make things right. I want to treat her the way she deserves to be treated."

At least Sherry would put up an argument, usually, even if now she was mostly trying to drag a heavy golem to the door. Jake was just taking it, and it was extra frustrating because she couldn't hit him. And when she would be able to hit him, he'd hit back. It was annoying, really. "What makes today different from yesterday? You didn't want her yesterday."

"It's not that I don't want her, it's... I was selfish. I didn't want to get hurt myself so I pushed her away, and I didn't want her to get hurt because of me, but after that mission, I realized... I'm terrified of losing her."
He knew it wouldn't explain much if at all, nor make up for all his blunders, but it was the only reason he could give Armagnac right now that didn't sound like it was an excuse, not that this didn't already sound like one.

It did sound like an excuse to the weapon, but only because she didn't understand. If he'd have wanted her, he wouldn't have pushed her away. It was the same thing Sherry had been told before, and something she claimed to understand. But in Armagnac's mind, you either wanted something or you didn't. "Absurdity. Her love is wasted on you. She is wasted on you. You will break her heart again, you will prove me right again. Eventually she will crumble and see how worthless you are."

And then the golem turned, indicating she was done with this. If he wasn't going to yell with her it was boring. "Put the clothes in the drawers in the closet. I will check the other room." She took her hand back from Sherry and opened the door. "Prove me wrong, little Worm, or I will kill you." And she left.

"She, um," Sherry began, "she was jealous at first." Because that explained everything.

She also couldn't believe she had thought it an okay idea to have them in the same room.

"I won't, and I will."
Perhaps he should answer in longer sentences so he didn't sound so cryptic, but he really had no intention of hurting her again. At least, not intentionally.

He only shook his head as Sherry tried to apologize, and gave her a small smile.
"It's ok. She has a right to be jealous. I don't have any intention of letting you go this time."
Walking towards her, he reached out, and pulled her into a hug, kissing the top of her head.
"And you should go too. I think you need to be there when the golem's returned."

Sherry smiled, but it was a little sad. Armagnac might not be able to get under Jake's skin like she wanted, but she knew what would get to Sherry.

"I should," she said, hugging him back. "Should I come find you when I'm done?"

Perhaps it was because he already acknowledged everything the weapon had said, but with that said, he really did want to change things, and his determination trumped even Armagnac's negativity.

Another head shake.
"It's ok. I still have a good hour or so before I need to return Chester's golem, and I suppose he'll want a good long talk with me afterwards. Get some rest today."

"Okay." More hugging. "Take it easy yourself." Then she put on her best smile, pulled away, and slipped out of the room.

It still didn't feel like her room, so she didn't even realize she'd just left him there.

Jake watched as she left, and when he could no longer see her, he turned around to look at the room. There was some stuff unpacked and some still in boxes, but from what he could see, it was quite spacious.

With one last glance, he turned, ready to leave, but stopped by her desk for a moment.
I'm sorry I didn't get a chance to give this to you in person.
He placed a small box on top, something he had picked up some time ago, turned, and left the room. There was a single note next to the box.

"Thank you."

When Sherry returned to the room, she was a little sad to see that Jake had indeed left, even though she'd expected him to. It had been what he'd said he'd do, after all. He still had things to do.



"You did," Sherry replied, moving towards the basket. "But I followed you instead."



"I know." Shaking her head, she picked up the box of desk supplies still on top of the clothes. She'd arrange the desk after putting the clothes away, but for now she'd just put the box on the desk by this--

"Hmm?" She set down one box and picked up a much smaller one instead. Earrings? Nice ones, too. But. She read the note, then read it again. Then, for some reason she couldn't pinpoint, she burst into tears.
