Third Floor Common Room, Wednesday Evening

[longislandiceme]

For the second night in a row, Bobby had set up a common room with his Go-Between Guy DVDs. This time, however, he'd also ordered a bunch of Chinese food- enough to share if anyone came by. He might not be able to cook, but at least he could feed people this way. It was only fair considering the number of times he'd had others' cooking.

"Nothing like this," she admitted, "but yeah, weird stuff like this happens a lot."

"I've seen some of it," Jen said. "I've... been some of it."

[darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com]

"Really?" Peyton said curiously. "Like gremlin bit or something?"

"I grow big and green when I get angry, now," Jennifer said.

[darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com]

"You... oh," Peyton said,a bit at a loss for words. "I'm sorry. That must be... very hard."

[not-jaded-yet.livejournal.com]

"It's actually kind of... fun," Jennifer admitted.

[darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com]

"Really? Well, then, good," Peyton said,looking a little surprised. "Hey, if you're cool with it, why not?"

"The only problem is my clothes get all shredded," Jennifer said, laughing.

[darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com]

"That could make things awkward," Peyton agreed with a smile. "You need to have clothes stashes hidden around the island just in case!"

[not-jaded-yet.livejournal.com]

"Yeah. Luckily I seem to at least stay somewhat covered," Jennifer said.

[darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com]

"The important parts, I hope," Peyton said with a grin.

[not-jaded-yet.livejournal.com]

"The important parts," Jennifer said. "It's rough on my jeans, though."

[darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com]

"I can only imagine!"

[not-jaded-yet.livejournal.com]

Jennifer laughed. "Some day, a boy is going to make me mad and get more than he bargained for."

[darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com]

"Or he's going to try and make you mad precisely for that reason. These are guys we're talking about," Peyton pointed out.

[not-jaded-yet.livejournal.com]

Jennifer shook her head. "Maybe I should keep it a secret."

[darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com]

"Whatever works for you," Peyton said with a smile.

[not-jaded-yet.livejournal.com]

"Or, I dunno, maybe it'd help find what boys are interested," Jennifer said.

[darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com]

"It's good to find guys who are interested in you for who you are," Peyton said quietly.

[not-jaded-yet.livejournal.com]

Jennifer looked over, concerned. "That sounds like there's something more, there."

[darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com]

She shrugged. "Maybe, yeah. Just, don't sell yourself short."

[not-jaded-yet.livejournal.com]

"Okay," Jennifer said, not wanting to press for any more than the other girl would say. "I promise, I won't."

[darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com]

Peyton smiled ruefully. "Sorry. Just some things I've been thinking alot about, you know. Didn't think it was - that I deserved or could have more than a sometime thing."

[not-jaded-yet.livejournal.com]

Jennifer went to sit closer to Peyton. "A relationship go bad on you?"

[darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com]

Peyton shook her head. "No, not at all. He was great. Just..."

She made a face. "I liked him, was really attracted to him, and... I let myself get into something I shouldn't. Kind of a friends with benefits thing. We were together, sort of, but it wasn't exclusive - at least not on his side. I knew that going in, agreed to it and told myself I could handle something like that. But I couldn't."
