sat downstairs in jack's home studio around midday, him and zach were messing around as they worked on a random idea — mostly just hanging out before the elder was leaving for europe.
"so how's things going with that uh.. arizona girl?" jack raised a brow at his friend before turning his attention back to his computer as he pieced things together.
"fine," he shrugged, not know how else to answer that question.
"just fine?" he chuckled while spinning around on the chair to face him properly, loosely folding his arms. "do you still talk to her or what?"
"yeah.. i talk to her but i also talk to other girls sometimes, depends on what i'm feeling."
"right.."
"baby," adalyn wandered into the room, receiving a hum from her boyfriend as he returned a smile. "could you make me food please?"
"mhm," jack nodded. "five minutes?"
"mhm, thank you."
"i love you," he called out as the girl started walking away, turning back to the computer so he could save what they had done. "you know, zach, you probably should make up your mind about that girl.. especially if she says she doesn't wanna just hook up.."
"yeah sure, simp," he laughed. "yes i'll come upstairs, out of my way to make you food," he playfully mocked.
"shut the fuck up," jack simply shook his head as he stood up.
zach followed him as they headed upstairs to the house's main floor, where adalyn was sat on one of the stools at the island counter, giving her daughter all the kisses whilst watching the other twin on the monitor still asleep.
"you're the woman, you're supposed to be in the kitchen," zach joked as he took a seat on the stool two down from the girl.
"don't speak to me like that," adalyn glared at him, not once breaking her gaze. "i was about to offer you our house, but never mind-"
"what?" both the boy's reacted.
"when we're gone," she replied, turning her attention to her boyfriend. "he can mind the house while we're in europe, and then he has somewhere to invite his girl to so she doesn't have to meet the parents on the first date."
"she's talking about the arizona girl, not any girl," jack added.
"or i could just book a hotel if essie wants to come.." zach shrugged.
"yeah but here's nicer and more private," she mentioned.
"and covered in cameras," he raised a brow as he turned to her. "that you watch through."
"just cover the cameras when you're here if it's that big of a deal," she scoffed. "and plus i have better things to be doing than watching whatever the fuck you get up to."
"are you being serious?" zach questioned.
"about not wanting to watch you?! yeah."
"no the house.."
"yeah, just don't go upstairs."
"so you do wanna be with her?" jack chimed in.
"i wanna hang out with her, yeah."
"it's just you made it out downstairs like you don't even talk to her much or even want anything.."
"i wanna meet her first, that's all," he shrugged. "we talk like every day though.. we talked on the phone for like an hour last night."
"i really hope you don't fuck her over," adalyn slightly laughed. "cause if she's made it clear she doesn't want to just hookup with you, i hope you know you're just playing with her heart right now.. talking to her like it could be something when you're not even sure..."
"i hate when i come over to make music and all that happens is i get pressured into sharing my love life," zach quietly groaned.
"or lack there of," jack snickered.
"uh actually my life in the love department is very there."
"sex department," adalyn corrected, getting up from the seat and wandered over to the other side of the kitchen.
"if you're willing to talk to her for longer than any other girl you've hooked up with in the past four months or whatever, why not just try," jack suggested while turning around from the stove and now leaning against the island counter top as he let the food cook. "just see where things go."
"do you think if someone knew who we are.. they'd want to rush into things just so they can say they got with us?" he slightly raised a brow.
"you're not that popular," adalyn laughed as used her free hand to prepare a bottle for the other baby. "they'd get nothing other than a few followers and hate from it, trust me, there's no benefit, i tried."
jack simply chuckled at her comment.
"baby, can watch your baby," she received a hum as he happily stood up and took their daughter from her.
"why, does this girl know us now?"
"i gave her my instagram cause she didn't believe i have more than a million followers- she thought i'd only have like fifteen thousand, which is just offensive."
"fifteen thousand is still a lot," he chuckled.
"anyway, we spoke about the band and she said she worked at our show there, so does in fact know who we are."
"okay, and the problem is..? what, she still doesn't want to get with you?"
"yea."
"isn't her not caring about all that a good thing..?" jack furrowed. "proves she's not shallow.."
"i just don't understand why she doesn't want to see me," he softly sighed.
"have.. you asked her to..?"
"..no"
"well maybe start there," he laughed.
