Him having friends was an odd thought and one he associated with Pearl, who was sociable and much more likeable in his opinon. He had not expected all the attention he received and no doubt his sister was sure to hear all about it within too long. Kicking off his shoes, Jacob crossed his legs on the bed and returned the smile. "Yeah. With all the vampires running around, I'm not sure it's a safe place to be. "Are you sure you want to put your shoes there and not in your closet?" Then again, her closet might not have enough room - they weren't very big, even for two people.
Ugh, was she really considering the dinner get together? He might have known. Jacob groaned softly, giving her an unhappy frown. "Dinner with other people? That's shoving me into a spike pit with cobras!" he stated. This was a standard routine, him complaining and her persuading because he couldn't say no to her. Even as much as he wanted the contrary. He frowned.
"I don't know why the fuck I got so much attention. It's nervewracking," Jacob said. "I have talked to her online and she is slightly weird, but vengeful. She wants to curse a vampire and needs our help. She's willing to buy you a nice present in return. And then I met a woman named Frankie who's a fire sprite and can turn her body into flames. Saw it with my own eyes... I snapped at her afterwards. It was too much." He furrowed his brow guiltily. "Don't worry, I apologized." Now he was not sure he should curse the boyfriend of such a nice person. "She's nice."
Should he tell her about Meike now? "I talked to a librarian named Meike; she's coming tomorrow to fix the smoothie blender. We're having cocktails afterwards. How am I going to handle that if I get sick after five minutes of spending time with people?" He ran his hand through his hair. "Fuck. I'm just going to talk about magic and bore her to death with it. It's probably easier than small talk." It was too late to prevent him from going into rant mode.
