And here's Jay and Nya. Sorry for the long awaited couple.
If there was one thing Nya loved most about Jay it was his power over making a gloomy day to a happy one, even if it was brief.
She sat on the kitchen counter, slowly doodling on her blueprints, mind drifting from thought to thought that had nothing to do with technological upgrades. It wasn't until a familiar easy-going voice filled her ears that Nya snapped out of her daydreams. "Hey Nya!"
Nya looked up at the grinning face of her once only boyfriend. She lightly smiled. "Hey Jay."
Keeping his innocent face on, Jay bumped Nya's shoulder with his. "What's wrong, Nya? No ideas in that brilliant head of yours?"
Her smile inched in a little, but not enough to show her left dimple. "No. I just have other things in mind," she answered truthfully.
Jay's face darkened a bit before instantly changing to its happy state that Nya nearly lost. His smile dropped a little, nervousness clouding his eyes. "Is it about me and Cole?"
Grimly, Nya nodded turning back to the blueprint, mouth set in a thin line. Jay bumped her shoulder again, snapping her attention to him again.
"You know, back in the tournament, Cole and I kind of bonded a bit on the battlefield about your feelings. But we are definitely cool. Just so ya know." He shrugged and gave her half a smile.
Her heart seemed to lessen a beat as a sigh of relief escaped her lips. "That's good to know," she replied slyly.
He beamed at her. "Hey, wanna hear about the chicken and the mouse?"
Nya could already feel her worries slipping away. She giggled softly. "Sure."
