Who: Marco, Cecilia, Jack, Juno, & Oliver
When: Following This
Where: Jack's Diner
Marco sat in a booth, his back to the wall, his robot baby cradled in his folded legs. He had crawled into that position quickly so he only had to spend minimal time not looking at Juno. He needed to watch Juno. He needed to make sure Juno was okay. As if that was even an option. Stupid Zenith and their stupid games and their stupid idea to let Simms go.
He watched her head behind the counter and to Jack, and he resisted the urge to follow. Being around Juno all day didn't mean holding her hand all day, even if he wanted to. She was still trying to earn points, and him holding on to her in a way he hoped was protective as she tried to serve milkshakes wasn't the way to do it. Still, he didn't want her to cry again, which he worried she would when she explained to Jack why she was early, and had an escort today. And when she did, he'd hop up and hug her again.
In the meantime, following Juno meant something that he'd failed to think of when he decided to leave work. He glanced over at Cecilia, who he'd been mostly avoiding. He appreciated what she was doing for Juno, but he still kind of wished she could stand outside like a secret service agent or something. If he'd have to spend the day with her, then he really was going to need more cigarettes. Was he even allowed to smoke in the diner? He'd have to ask Jack. He gave her another quick glance, then went back to looking after Juno. This plot that they'd come up with was miserable.
