Jay's playing Metallica on the radio in Jake's barn as he teaches her more about how to rebuild the two motorcycles that she and Bella brought over, and the older girl's watching from beside them. He's pointing stuff out, and the younger girl nods as she listens intently. Jay seems to be catching on fast, but Bella's totally confused by everything that he's saying. They all start laughing at something Jay says, and she thinks back to one of their first days of the rebuild.
"So, I was thinking, if we're gonna do this every day — and hopefully we will — we have to, like, fit some homework in there somewhere." Bella tells them. "I don't want Billy and Henry thinking that I'm a bad influence on you guys."
"You influence me?" Jake questions. "Please."
"Are you... I'm older than you, so that makes me the influencer and you two in influencees." She argues.
"No, no, no." He chuckles as he turns to face her, and Jay looks up since he's no longer working on the bike. "My size and knowledge base actually makes me older than you, because of your general paleness and lack of know-how. Her, you can definitely influence." He points at Jay.
"Mhm." The younger girl nods, entirely amused with this whole thing.
"I convinced you to build two-wheeled death machines with us. Don't you think that makes you kind of young and naïve?" Bella insists.
"Okay." He concedes. "So where do we stand?"
"I'm thirty-five... And you might be, like, thirty-two."
"Oh, come on."
"What about me?" Jay asks, and they both look back at her.
"Twenty-one." They say in unison.
"Drinking age." She smiles, making them both laugh. "I'll take it."
"Hey, Jay?" Bella pulls her out of her thoughts, and she glances up at her. "What were you saying at lunch before Angela asked about your class?"
"I don't know, what was I saying?" The younger girl asks, not knowing what exactly she's referring to.
"Jessica had asked something about the hot guy from the beach — I assume she meant Paul."
"You still hang around him?" Jake asks the youngest, and she shrugs.
"Not lately." Jay tells him.
"Because of what happened at the bonfire?" Bella asks, and she shakes her head as she looks up at her.
