"I worked mostly on endurance and stamina exercises. It turns out that Jazz is an excellent personal trainer," he smiled and then realized he probably shouldn't mention that. "Seriously, he helped me a lot, and I am stronger and my reflexes are even better."
"It smells good and I am starving," he grinned, taking a bite. His parents might turn up their nose at shephard's pie but he didn't. He had eaten like a poor man when he was on his own. "It's actually really good." He was eating more now, reflecting the increased level of activity.
He took another bite and reached over, taking her hand. "Do you remember how you were with me when I was the same way? I didn't know what to do with myself. We had all these plans. Lori and I were going to live together, and then it was just gone. I would have bonded with him, but now I realize that I shouldn't have. You told me that it would get better and it did. It will for you too." He really wanted to help her, knowing all too well how it felt.
