After Rhys's behvaiour the day before, Jake's easy acceptance and the complete about face of subject threw her for a moment and she looked at him, a little surprised and confused and wondering if this was just some sort of game, but then she remembered his note. She swallowed hard and looked back across at the water, nodding slowly as the tension in her body, and the tighness in her stomach actually eased for a moment.
It was only then that she felt his arm around her shoulders as something other than a restriction. Still a little wary, but not on edge any more she murmured her agreement.
"Reminds me what we're running for," she added, knowing the meaning would be lost on him, but the statement being the simple truth of why she came there.
