Liz opened the door to her office to find, not one, but two Edible Arrangements. The largest one was made of different lunch meats (and, much to Liz's delight, mostly ham). Inside that was a $300 gift card to Omaha Steaks that almost made her cry. The second Edible Arrangement was much more ordinary, and contained chocolate covered bananas (which may have been a reference to Arrested Development, but Liz was sure that Jack knew nothing about the cancelled masterpiece).

In between the gifts was a very large thank you card, Jack's handwriting neat and simple.

Liz,

I owe you more than you can possibly know for what you did for me this week, even if there is no possible way that Avery will fall for it. I'm sorry I embarrassed you on national television. I hope you enjoy these gifts, for they were the least I could do.

Jack

Liz smiled at the note. Sure, the whole thing had been awkward, especially watching it back with her boyfriend, but she knew that Jack would've done the same thing for her.

The kiss hadn't even been that bad either. Part of her wished that they hadn't been in front of everyone, because maybe they could've really given it a shot.

She sunk down into her chair and nibbled on some ham, trying to get thoughts of Jack's lips out of her mind. Yeah, he owed her big time.

Avery wasn't throwing things at him, so that was a good sign. In fact, she was simply rolling her eyes at the whole scene. Which is definitely not the reaction he was expecting. He figured he should say something, so he cleared his throat.

"I am so sorry, honey. I don't know what came over me. Diana-"

"Can be a whore." Avery interrupted. "She's my mother, Jack, I know how she is. Do you know how many times she tried to seduce my boyfriends in the past? She's the definition of a MILF to most men."

"So, you're still angry at me though, right?" Jack asked, not really sure where he stood with her. She sat up a little and sighed.

"Am I disappointed? Absolutely. But, you were in a pretty rough position Jack. Uh, no pun intended I guess," she said, trying to hide a smirk. "So I guess I get it, especially knowing how you and my mom are."

Jack let out the breath he was holding, and Avery cuddled closer to him. He was so glad to have her back and in his arms once more.

"Besides," Avery said, interrupting his thoughts. "I think kissing Liz was enough punishment for you, huh?" They both chuckled loudly at that and Jack muttered a "yeah".

He would never admit that the kiss between him and Liz was actually very… sweet. Deep down, Jack had really wanted to kiss her, but he had seen the look on her face as she approached him, and he held back. Not to mention, he didn't want to make out with Lemon infront of everyone they knew, along with the rest of America. And after all that, Avery wasn't even super upset with him.

Yeah, he was definitely sending her another Meat Arrangement.
