=========================

Jake woke up the next morning feeling a little awkward, even if that was just a dream he still feels bad about, he's not sure what he feels worse for the fact that his brain seemed to think it was appropriate to imagine his fiancé's best friend or the fact that if it was real, then what the hell Cara was thinking, all Jake did know was to tell Margot the truth, so while she was sitting at the kitchen island Jake decided to just tell her what happened last night.

Jake: Umm... I gotta tell you something...

Margot of course looked up to him from her tablet, she uses that over a laptop like Jake does, their easier to use and lighter to carry, plus it was Jake that put her onto it, she used to use a laptop but now they just share a tablet and things are so much easier for them, only she wasn't focused on anything now, except the man she loves.

Jake: ... Last night, I might or might not have fantasized about Cara.

Margot didn't need anymore then that, she knew what he meant and wasn't sure what to think about it, other then the fact he said he "might or might not have", she wasn't so sure about that part so she needed to ask.

Margot: What do you mean "might or might not have"? What does "might or might not have" mean?

Jake knew what he meant and what he was trying to say but without saying that he screwed her best friend it's not all that easy, Margot though was really curious to see where this goes, mainly because he's so worried about it, it's cute that he get's so worked up over a dream.

Jake: Well, one minute she was there the next she wasn't. I don't know.

Margot played like she was angry or upset about this while Jake just stood there and waited for her to say something, Margot knew that neither of them would do anything like this, she trusts Cara to not try anything and she knows that Jake wouldn't, look how upset he's getting over a simple dream.

Margot: Relax, nothing happened. It was just a dream.

Jake had to do a double take from how quick she was to change her mood and to wave it off, he watched her get up from the stool and go over to the coffee pot to fill her cup up again, he's not sure if she should be drinking coffee while pregnant but he's not going to say anything, she's the one with that "Mother's Instinct" stuff so whatever she feels is right or wrong for the baby, he'll trust.

Jake: Uh, wait what? Aren't you pissed that I dream't about your friend at least?

Margot chuckled to him then sat back in her seat, Jake was really confused about what's going on right now, he might not be a pro of relationships but he's pretty sure that she's supposed to be shouting at him, calling him a cheating scumbag, a few others as well, not sitting there sipping on a cup of coffee like nothing happened.

Margot: I'm not mad because it was just a dream, I dream about other guys all the time. It doesn't mean anything.

Jake stood there for a second and thought about what she just said, Margot went back to what she was doing on the laptop, honestly not caring about the situation, Jake though was worrying even more then before now with what she just said.

Jake: What do you mean "other guys"? What other guys?

Margot chuckled to him then indicated for him to go over to her, Jake did what he was told and stood beside her, he looked at the laptop for a split second but then stopped when she pushed herself up on the stool and kissed his cheek, he smiled to her as she hovered there for a second before one last kiss then sitting back down going back to what she was doing before hand.
