Second Floor Common Room; Sunday Morning

Leo was wide awake after radio and he wasn't comfortable enough to spend all his time stalking Fixer-Uppers yet, so he decided to check out the common room on his floor. It seemed nice, not as high-tech as cabin nine, but it had a TV and food so he really couldn't find much to complain about.

He put the TV onto ESPN and idly listened to the anchors talking about the playoff games today while making himself breakfast. Southwestern omelets. The actual, good, Southwestern kind. Not that crap rolled up into a burrito that you got at McDonalds for two bucks.

[The common room is open, yes]

Jake blinked, for a moment wondering if he needed to have a word with Kate, but Bod would probably not thank him for it.

"That's just stupid," he decided. "She's got something wrong there. What's wrong with not wanting to share your girlfriend with another guy? I don't think she'd have liked it if you went out to strut your stuff at random girls."

"No, apparently, she would be just fine with it as long as it was nothing I found hot," he shared, shaking his head. "So, apparently sharing me is just fine with her."

He hadn't really thought about that until now and now it didn't make him feel too good about himself. "I guess she didn't really want just me at all."

"Or she's got a different view on relationships," Jake tried, not exactly liking the look on his friends face. "There's people who are even cool having sex with others. It's better to find out now than later on, no?"

"I suppose you're right, yes," Bod said, nodding and shaking his head. "It's over now. I'm apparently a terrible person for turning on her so quick and she's done nothing wrong."

"No, you're not," Jake defended instantly. "Even if she didn't see anything wrong with it, she should have told you. You didn't do anything wrong except think that you were having a normal relationship. She's the one with the twisted ideas."

"Yes, well, it's over now," he said and sighed, sitting back and rubbing the bridge of his nose. "She's already been with someone else and I'm fairly sure I'm an afterthought. I'm just doing my best to move on."

"You're better than her, better than she deserves," Jake decided instantly. "Who knows, you might run into a new girl and be head over heels soon."

"I don't know about that but I'll never say never," he said and laughed. "How are you doing in that area? Better luck than me?"

Jake shook his head. "Being a plushie is not as big of a chuck magnet as you'd think," he joked before growing serious. "I told Claudia about things which went better than I would have thought. We're back to being friends. I dunno, it's been so weird lately."

The whole thing with Rosalind didn't help and maybe he was the confusing one.

"Weird is a good way to put things," Bod agreed, chuckling. "Maybe you'll find a girl to fall head over heels with as well? There might be someone out there!"

"Yeah, maybe," he agreed, not sounding too convinced. He had found a girl like that and he'd had to give her up too. Never mind that he was only seventeen and looking at a frigging long life. "I guess we'll see, huh?"

"I guess so," Bod said, nodding. "Thanks for, um, listening to me. I know I put a lot on you today."

Jake shook his head. "No worries, man. Any time. God knows you've listened to me whining plenty of times already. I'm sorry it didn't work out."

"So am I," he said and shrugged. "Maybe next time. Maybe not. I guess we'll have to wait and see."

"Whatever shall be, shall be?" Jake snorted.

"I think that's the best either of us can do," he said and nodded. "We just keep on keeping on."
