Jack had an idea.

Davey had been sad for the last couple of days- understandably, and Jack was doing all he could to make his boyfriend feel better. He's tried everything, but the most he's gotten was a smile, a pained one.

Coincidentally, tomorrow is the birthday party. There was already a party to be had, but Jack had a better idea.

So, he called Books, Race, Spot, and Roller, and now they're sitting on Jack's couch, contemplating.

"So, you want to give Davey, Les, and Sarah a funeral for their parents?" Jack's eyes widened at Spot's words, shaking his head vigorously.

"No! It's not- it's not a funeral, but a celebration of life", Jack explained, sitting on the arm of his chair. "It's to help them understand that their parents are gone, but they's in a better place."

"So, you're planning a party for your boyfriends personal life without his knowledge?" Roller shook her head, crossing her arms. "Jack, that is so East Texan, I'm surprised you haven't even realized it."

"You's only here because I know Queens would like to be invited", Jack glared, pointing at his cousin. "Anyway, I think it's a good idea."

"I don't know, Jack", Race says, sitting in Spot's lap. "It just don't feel right. Like, they have no idea."

"I gotta agree with Race", Spot shrugs. "I feel like they should know."

Books stayed silent. Les cried the other night. He couldn't get that image out of his head.

His boyfriend looked so sad, like he was in physical pain. Books never wanted to see him like that ever again. Maybe this isn't such a bad idea.

"Maybe", Books muttered, his arms hugging his chest. "But I do think we should ask them first."

Jack nodded, taking in the information with a smile. "I can agree to that."

He looked at the others. "Guys?"

Roller looked at Spot and Race, turning back to Jack with a smile. "I'm all for it. Whatever I can  do to meet these boyfriends of yours."

Race chuckled and nodded. "Let's do it. Spot will do it, too."

"Who told you that?" Race rolled his eyes and whispered and Spot's ear, causing the older to smile. "Yeah, let's do it."

"It's unanimous", Jack exclaimed, ignoring Roller's, "Big word." Jack clapped his hands and got to planning, explaining everything to the other leaders.

"Right", Blink nodded, walking back and forth. "Yeah, I'm for it. I think the others would be cool with it, too."

Mush, Crutchie, and Finch watched him pace, wondering what was being said in the other side. "Yeah. Yeah. Cool. See you tomorrow. Bye."

"Who was that?" Mush waited for his boyfriend to answer. Blink smiled, adjusting his eye patch.

"That was Jack", he says, placing his phone back in his pocket. "He was tellin' me about this plan he has for the Jacobs."

"What about? He didn't call me", Crutchie interjects, wrapping an arm around Finch as he  moves his crutch to the side.
