T-talk about what?" Danny asked nervously, trying very hard to meet his sister's gaze to show he wasn't nervous. Apparently, it wasn't working.

"Talk about what you were doing out there! Who was that in the car?" She demanded immediately, not giving Danny time to think of an excuse.

Danny fidgeted under his sister's gaze, nervously trying to think of an excuse. Finally, after not being able to come up with one, he decided to do the next best thing: become defensive. He scowled at her. "That's none of your business." He snapped angrily. "I'm not a kid anymore Jazz. You can't just come here demanding to know what I'm doing like that."

"Little brother, I don't know what you were doing, but it wasn't right."

"How do you know?"

"It just seemed suspicious."

"Well, aren't you a genius." Danny snapped, getting annoyed and fed up.

"Danny. I'll tell mom and dad."

"Go ahead! You're acting like a fucking brat. It's none of your business but if you must know, it was a new friend of mine who got a car. I stayed out late and he picked me up and drove me home since it was on his way!" Danny was surprised how the lie came out. He almost believed it himself.

Jazz seemed surprised by Danny's response. Whatever response she had been expecting, it wasn't that. Danny stood his ground, hoping he wasn't giving away his nervousness. His sister eyed him for a bit longer before she frowned.

"Why didn't you just say that?" she asked, her earlier animosity and suspicion gone. Danny was relieved to see it go.

"Because, Jazz, it's not cool of you to interrogate me like that. I'm not fourteen. You can't just butt into my life just because you happen to drop by."

"I'm sorry, force of habit." She anxiously rubbed the side of her arms before approaching her brother. They hugged briefly in greeting before she pulled away with an apologetic smile. "How's everything going?"

"It's fine. Usual." Danny answered simply. "How long are you staying for?"

"Just tonight. I'm picking my friend up tomorrow from her parent's house and then we're driving back up to school."

"Ah. Are you staying over for Christmas break?"

She gave another apologetic look and Danny instantly knew the answer. "Maybe, if I'm not busy."

"Oh, sure."

He already knew that translated to 'most likely not. I'm too busy with school stuff.' He wasn't surprised, really. His sister was a pain but that doesn't mean he didn't miss her. Ever since she started college, Danny got lucky if he saw her five times a year. Back when they were living together, the odds would have been great to him, but now that she wasn't around anymore he was able to note her absence.

"Jazzypants! Danny! I have hot chocolate!" Jack Fenton called from the kitchen. Danny and Jazz walked in and joined their parents in drinking some hot chocolate. They spent the night catching up. They stayed up chatting until two in the morning. Danny climbed into bed, feeling exhausted. Tired, he dragged his body to the outlet where he kept his charger and plugged his phone in. He saw a text waiting to be read and opened it.
