- Be somebody who makes everybody feel like somebody. -

After a couple of drinks and fooling around with the items Jake found. Jake came across an old polaroid camera, Kelseys eyes shined "Oh my" she said "I have one back at home I love cameras" She smiled a bright smile lighting up her whole face, Jake admired the view "Here..." he mumbled passing her the camera, she smirked the wine burning in her a veins and faced the cameras lens towards her and pulled him so he was behind her, "Smile" she said and took the photo.

Momentarily blinded by the flash she blinked and looked down at the photo and smiled.

"You look beautiful" He said "you do too" she said making them both, more sober and to pull apart.  Kelsey grabs onto this sparkling dress and holds it up" "how does this even grab on" Kelsey says "Yes, yes, yes. That is pure class right there." Jake says and laughs "Oh. This is this is very much me." He says an grabs a sun hat with colourful colours. "Ooh. Ha ha! Now you have to take up ceramics." Kelsey says and smiles. "You know, I actually made my mom a mug in summer camp." Jake explain looking over at her. " You did" Kelsey says cutting him off with a big smile  "I did..." Jake smiles. "I bet she still has it." Kelsey looks over at him. "Yeah, she would...  She, uh, she actually she passed away when I was young." Jake says looking away. "I'm sorry to hear that. " Kelsey says looking down at her fingers. "No... It was -It was a long time ago. You know, I don't know why, but I kept the mug." Jake says smiling at himself . "It's ugly, it leaks, and it mocks me from the cupboard when I'm home." jake says looking into her eyes now.

"This could be the first time I've gone more than a day without checking my phone..." Kelsey  Pauses "Like, ever." she finishes. " Yeah. It's kind of nice, right?" He says and places some  bright yellow glass that you can see through. "It is." Kelsey says and places some with sparkles that are way too big. "Well, hello." Jake says trying his british accent out. They both laugh.  "And thank you." Kelsey adds looking at him more serious this time taking the glasses of. "You- you take care of everyone else... You know, you deserve a shopping spree." Jake says looking away.  " I mean for the other thing the pills, I always kind of had a hard time with my highs and lows.Never really felt like I can do things and be a better person.  It got pretty bad  after the whole I thought I lost my ex Jack" She pauses "Yes the guy from he other day. I kinda lost who I was and even to this day I'm still not sure of what happened. I got into some stuff I shouldn't have. I guess it messed with my chemistry. I went clean. The meds keep me in check and help with the after math.  So thank you." Kelsey finally explains opening up.

  "Hey, we've all got our crosses." Jake says looking at her.  "That's it?..  It doesn't freak you out?" Kelsey says looking up from looking down at her lap. "What, that you're human?" Jake says chuckling "What?"Jake says as she was just looking at him not saying anything.  "Nothing." She clears her throat. "I guess I'm too used to being punished for it, you know?: Kelsey says looking away.  "We're all messed up, Kels. Anyone who judges you for it is just just hiding their own stuff." He explains looking at her breathing her in.  "OK. Your turn. " Kelsey says turing her gaze to him. "My turn?" Jake questions "What's your cross?" She explains. She chuckles placing a hat on her head and takes it off. "Oh, gosh. I don't actually think girls are gross." he says "That's not a cross." Kelsey says raising her eyebrows. "It can be." Jake says mimicking her. 

"I've, uh, sort of been with a lot of them. It's like, uh, it's like a crutch or a or a coping m- Whatever." he trails off looking away from her and then back.   My childhood wasn't a picnic.So I've always had a hard time letting people in... As soon as I try to get close, I move on...."I don't know if that's a confession or a warning." Kelsey Says looking over at him. "No. I- I just- I know we don't know each other all that well or or anything... But circumstances are making it so we're all getting kind of close in here. You know? So - " He pauses placing his hand on the box. "So don't let me run, OK?" Jake says looking over at her, "OK." Kelsey says smiling placing her hand too on the box and leans her back against the wall.
