Tessa was walking next to Jem trying to get him to try a soda. "Jem, just take one sip and then you don't have to take anymore." Jem just gave her a look, "I am not trying this." Tessa sighed, "Jem, things are different here than back then. There are no carriages but instead cars, there are places to eat quickly at instead of sitting down for a long time, Jem please just try this for me." Tessa was now pleading with big round eyes. Jem gave a slight sigh, then he said, "Tessa, if I try this fizzy drink will you stop nagging me?" He cupped her cheek. "I will." She agreed. Jem took the drink from her hands and was about to drink when he almost collapsed, Tessa had caught him. "Jem?!" She asked frantically. Jem lifted his head a little. "I'm alright." He slurred. "No your not. Lets get you home before you try to collapse again." She held him close and helped him walk to their apartment.
