Re: Great Gatsby: Jude/Clem/Shane/Graham
Jude resisted the urge to roll his eyes when the guy seemed to tense up about the question. Apparently he wasn't great at small talk. Jude on the other hand could talk about the weather for hours, if he had to. If conversation was going to be like pulling teeth, he wasn't going to bother. Too much wasted energy. He already knew this man wasn't good enough for Clementine. That took little time to figure out. But she knew her own mind.
His eyebrows furrowed and he sighed, because clearly the man thought it was some kind of secret. Was this some type of rescue attempt? Good lord. Or not good lord. Since he served Hell no. "No, Clementine, I'm inclined to have you stay here until you recover. I thought you might change your mind once you were here and comfortable. If he wants to stay too and that makes you feel safe, I'm all for it. But there are no bars on the windows or locks on the door. In the general sense. I wouldn't keep you here against your will." Jude set his coffee cup down and the horse whispered to him, but he ignored it for now.
