A nice talk

?So,? you say in a soft voice, still searching for something to say, ?you know {firstname} well??

?Yea, I'd say so. He's a real cool guy, I'd even go as far as saying that he is my best friend but don't tell him I said that, it would just go to his head.? Jason chuckled. You feel a grin on your face at that.

You continue the small talk for a while, doing your best to pretend that you're Sara, which isn't that hard since Jason has never her met before. You try to seem as interested as you can in what Jason has to say, and keep asking questions about himself. After a while, the nervousness you felt before slips away without you even realizing it as you talk to your friend. The conversation is actually becomes unusually interesting. Maybe its just the fact that you've been so stressed all this time thanks to CARA, but you find yourself really enjoying Jason's company. He is your friend after all, but you feel much more relaxed with him here.

You have no idea how long you two had been talking before you are interrupted by the sound of your stomach growling.

?Sorry, I haven't eaten anything today,? you apologize.

?Well, why don't we go take care of that? My treat.? Jason says standing. He reaches out his hand and you take it, feeling him pull up up off the couch. This was great, you were finally going to get way from this house.
