"Please, just one wish", he whispered.

I stared into his eyes.
What kind of plan is he thinking?
I sure did already paid him back for my request on double date, what else do I owe him?

I frowned, and he frowned, I pursed my lips and he did the same, "Jack", I said and he nodded, hinting a smile from the corner of his lips.

"Stop copying me", I glared at him that made him laughed, he then shook his head and rolled his eyes like he had enough interaction with me.

"So what'd ya say, Els?", Jack asked this time he played with my ponytail tugging it lightly, that only made me flushed pinker than ever. He didn't mind though, its like he enjoyed looking me all covered in embarrassment because of his touch, "You're all sensitive in every part I touched, did you enjoy it, hm?", he said it almost whispering giving me chills ran down through my spine.

"Okay! That's enough", out of sudden I took a step back from him that made him flinched.

"Back to our main problemsㅡ", I tried so hard to compose myself and not looking like a desperate in need of his touch.

He pursed his lips, and smiled like nothing happened, "Alright"

Wait shouldn't he be arguing now? 
He should be like,
"Why are you so mean?" or
"Ooh, feisty- I like it"

Where's the Jack that I know all this time?

Instead of arguing he just stood still, crossing both of his arms in his chest, like he was waiting for my explanation.

"Okay, the sundaeㅡ it spilled and the glass broke", I explained and he nodded in agreement, "Then you covered this incident for me, which I'm very grateful forㅡ Thank you again and sorry", I grinned awkwardly waiting for a respond from him but he just nodded.

He didn't say a word, he just stood there, his arms still crossed and he just stared at me giving a questioning look.

"Uhㅡ Did I say something wrong? Say something? Please?", I sighed and took a pair of gloves to clean the mess that I made, I flicked it and before I could put my hands in it, Jack took both of the gloves.

"Jack! I'm trying to work here!", I protested.

That's more like the old Jack!
Now we just need to wait for his whining over anything.
He's just a spoiled kid after all

Any seconds now?
He should be whining now, why isn't he whined?

"What? Why are you starring at me like that?", he scoffed, "I'll help you", he put on the gloves that quite tight in his fingers, because the size was too small for his hands.

"W-whaㅡ why?", I stuttered

Shit! What the hell happened to him?

"No reason, grab another pairㅡ let's clean it up before someone slipped"

"Um, okayㅡ sure"

Shouldn't he acting like a spoiled kid?
"I'm not going to touch it! It could pricked my skin- do you know how valuable my skin is, princess?"
He used to be like that, right?

Since when did he become this cool?
Wait I must lost my mind- I did not just said that he's cool.

No. Nope.

God, can people stop starring at him? We're just picking shards of glass!
There's nothing cool about it, right?!

I flew my gaze to his figure that was busy picking up the glass because it scattered all around.
