Day 26 - Questioning

Clarke was walking around the town, just a casual Saturday afternoon. He didn't have a shift and his mum was working, he didn't know what else to do. Grabbing out his phone from the back pocket of his jeans he began scrolling through social media. Not watching where he was going he collided with someone, bashing chest on chest with the them. The person he bumped into dropped a book the had been hold. Gasping in surprise he bent down to pick up the book the same time the other person did

"Oh god I am so sorry" he said as he looked up and came face to face with Jack

'Holy crap' Clarke thought.

He stared into Jacks expansive blue eyes, his heart doing backflips inside his chest at a sudden and rapid place. He hadn't seen him since that time in his mothers police station. Jack had done some incredible things Clarke had never ever seen before. There was a sparks inside Jack something Clarke had never seen in anyone before, but he didn't know what he felt.

"Oh hello Clarke. It's a Pleasent surprise to see you"

"Ah yeah you too man. How have you been. Last time I saw toy some freaky shit was going on"

"Yes, I would like to apologies for the incident. I did not mean to cause harm" Jack said placidly picking up his book and dusting himself off.

"Nah it's all good. You're a good guy Jack, I'm glad I ran into. Do you maybe want to hang out sometime"

Jack brightened and smiled raising his head as he said

"Of course. Are you free tomorrow?"

"Uh yeah, sure thing, meet you at Biggerson's?"

"Sure, see you then" Jack continued on his way and Clarke walked off in the direction he had been travelling.

He exhaled sharply, his lungs re-inflating  again. He hadn't even realised he had been breathing shallowly. What was wrong with him. What was going on inside his head. Jack had stocked something in him that he hadn't felt since he first met him. The old swoop of his golden brown fringe had been cut short sticking around his forehead haphazardly. His new bright eyes had dimmed slightly but maintained their vibrant colour. The gal in his teeth unchanged his crooked smile still childish and full of life. God what was wrong with him.

Jack headed back to the Bunker, his mind still on Clarke. Clarke was the first friend he had ever made. He had discovered his love of nougat with Clarke he was the first person he had ever met. Jack thought back to Claire his hair was still it's deep brown curled around his face, his tan skin unblemished and his beautiful steel blue eyes still full of wonder. Jack realised he was discovering new human emotions. But he didn't know what it was, he was confused and contemplative. Once again he was discovering new things without meaning to and it was confusing him. He didn't know what to do.

He got home to the Bunker and slumped into his room chucking his book towards his book hoard on the ground. Clarke had been a constant thought in the back of his mind since he had  him. Constantly his mind wandered to the small amount of memories he had with Clarke. Meting him at Pirate Pete's Jolly Treats (yes that is where Clarke works I looked it up), then talking to him at the police station where they had maintained small talk.  Jack was only a few hours old to be fair so the interaction was strained at best. He remembered getting those snacks from the vending machine and tasting food for the first time ever. His memory darkened slightly remembering losing control and hurting Clarke. He had never meant to. But he had no control, he'd hurt people but he was trying better everyday.

Now he had a second chance with Clarke and his stupid emotions were messing with how he felt about Clarke. He decided there was someone who could help him figure this out. Dean. Dean was good with emotions right? He could help. (In my brain Jack is ironically exactly like this because we all know how bad Dean is with feelings) walking down the hallway hoping to find Dean he headed first to Dean and Cass' room. Knocking on the door and walking directly into the room, only to find Dean and Cass joined together at the lips.
