After I got out of the shower, Jason was right. He was right there laying on the bed with some kettle corn and a movie playing. I just shake my head and laugh softly as he reaches for my hand and pulls me next to him, popping a piece of kettle corn in my mouth. It surprised me honestly, not many people prefer this over regular popcorn.

"I just wanted something sweet tonight," he laughs and lays there, watching what I noticed was Marley & Me, of all things the one and only Jason Deeps is watching this, not that I had a problem with it. "What?" he chuckles with an eyebrow raised.

"What?" I look at him confused a bit.

"You're looking at me funny," he laughs. "What did I do now?"

"I never thought you'd watch this type of movie," I say honestly and laugh quietly as I look at him. "You just don't seem like a guy who would watch it."

"You said you liked realistic fiction, am I right?" He shrugs. "This was the first thing they suggested under that category."

I nod a bit, he actually listened to that?

"Oh," I blush softly and steal his kettle corn laughing quietly while he chuckles at my actions. I take a handful and hand the bowl back to him, "Sorry not sorry."

He rolls his eyes kissing my cheek while I keep my eyes focused on the film. I honestly loved this, it was just a beautiful, but sad story... Minutes into the movie, Jason moves to put the kettle corn on the night stand then lays behind me, wrapping his tattoo filled arms around my waist. I can't help but let my fingers wander against the beautiful art, imagining how long each one took.

"Having fun there?" He whispers gently against my shoulder as I nod.

"You have so many tattoos," I whisper softly and look back at him.

"Some could say that it's just art... But everyone has their pain reliever... Getting tattoos is mine, instead of doing something stupid, I get tattoos, they make me feel when I'm numb, ya know?" He sighs softly and looks down at my fingers as they tangle with his. I nod, understandingly.

"I've always wanted to get one," I say softly.

"What would it be?" He smiles and kisses my head.

"I don't know," I shrug and lean into him gently. "I just know I want it to mean something..."

He smiles still and I turn so I face his chest, burying my head into him gently.

You do know, he's only nice to you because you're pregnant.

I sigh softly, it was true though... The voices were always right anymore.

I'm crazy...

Yeah, you are.

"Lark?" He looks at me. "What's going on? You're talking to yourself..."

Now he'll leave! It's all you're fault!

This is his house idiot.

Don't back sass me.

"I'm sorry..." I whisper.

"Just tell me what's going on, please Lark... What's wrong?" He asks worriedly.

"Nothing... Nothing is," I whisper again.

How was I supposed to tell him I was crazy?

With your mouth, duh.

Now you're just being stupid.

"There is though... You said you were crazy... What do you mean?"

"I... It's nothing Jason..." I grip onto his shirt gently, I knew he would make me leave... They all do.

"Talk to me Lark," his grip on me tightens and soon I feel his lips against my head.

"Why are you so caring towards me? I'm just a stranger to you," I whimper. "I'm nothing to you... I'm just ruining your life with this... Mistake."

"This baby is not a mistake, Lark... A surprise, but not a mistake. You however, are not ruining my life. Yeah you came in unexpectedly, but you're carrying my child... The child I helped make sweetheart," he says softly.

I move away from him gently and get up, "I need to go home..."

"Lark... When will you realize, you mean something to me now?"

"I'm nothing Jason, I just came in your life unexpected with a burden... I'm twenty one... I can't be a mother... Not with everything going on."

"Let me help you then, tell me what's going on..." He gets up and grabs my hand gently. "Please sweetheart..."

"I'm crazy, Jason..."

"Aren't we all?"

Awh! Jason cares so much about Lark.! -Jai
