Will pulled quickly away, his face filled with horror.

"W-What are you doing?" He exclaimed. Jordan simply smirked.

"Questions love answers, Will."

"That doesn't make sense-"

"You'll see." Jordan trailed his finger along Will's jaw, sending shivers through Will.

"I thought I was here to help you with something."

"And you did."

"You kissed me."

"So?"

"I d-didn't know that was okay." Will stammered, wiggling out from under Jordan. He hugged his thin body, frowning.

"It's not."

"Then why did you do it?"

"Like I said, questions love-"

"-answers, yeah, I fucking know. That didn't help me out."

Jordan laughed once, rolling his eyes. "Come on Will, I've got to take you back home."

"Whoa, whoa, wait just a moment."

"What's wrong now?" Jordan sighed.

"There had to be some kind of story behind this. Is there cameras somewhere? Am I being tricked, tested maybe? Is Adette hiding somewhere?"

"No, no. No one is watching us, I think."

"Y-You think? You don't sound so sure."

"Do you want me to reassure you?" Jordan crossed his arms, taking a small step closer to Will.

"Preferably, yes." Will shrugged, becoming wary of how close Jordan was getting.

"Fine."

Jordan ran up to Will and pecked him quickly on the cheek.

"Stop doing that!" Will shrieked, slapping a hand over his cheek. Jordan giggled.

"Let's go now, for real."

"Yeah, let's."

Will and Jordan sat in silence the entire ride back to Colette Gardens. Something just felt wrong to Will, and he wasn't sure why.

It wasn't the kiss.

It sure as hell wasn't Jordan.

It wasn't Seattle.

It wasn't Adette, right?

Right?

Will sighed exasperatingly, propping his elbow on his knee as he stared out of the car window.

"It's weird." Jordan suddenly mumbled, his voice loud over the slow drawl of the song coming through the car stereos.

"What's weird?" Will sighed as he dragged his fingers across the dusty dashboard, stirring up a diminutive cloud of particles.

"Life."

"Well, obviously-"

"No, I mean life as in a mental state. The life that goes on in your head."

"I didn't know there was an everyday array that went on in your mind. . ."

"Well, to me there is, aside from the usual thought process." Jordan glanced over at Will and smirked. "Memory is weird, huh?"
