Jay had really liked having a family. He'd liked having a dad who wasn't crazy and he'd like having, well, any sort of mom at all. His mom back home had been smart and left minutes after he was born. He couldn't blame her - he only wished that she'd taken him with her. But that was that. Still, living in a house with a normal family had struck something inside of him, and filled a part of him that had only ever been filled with Evie, Carlos and Mal. The truth was, Jay wanted that. He wanted to belong somewhere. And to have it and then have it ripped away...well, it hurt.
He'd gone to the gym to work out this morning, hoping that would help take care of his depressing thoughts. It did a lot. That was one of the reasons he was so in shape and athletic. That, and it was a way to keep yourself from getting killed on the Isle.
His head was in the clouds as he walked, and he wasn't paying attention at all when he stepped out into the street, not realizing until the nick of time that he'd almost walked out into the path of a car. Jumping back onto the sidewalk, he grinned at the other person waiting there for the life to change.
"Well, that was almost the end of me. Wouldn't want that."
