“…” he went quiet with his arms around her, unsure of what to say. No. He didn’t want that man near her. He didn’t want DW doing the work that her boyfriend should. But he didn’t have a car. He couldn’t lift heavy things.
Again, another friendly reminder of how weak he was.
“He can help.” he said gently, pulling back to look at her. “I mean he’s. He’s your friend, right?”
She nodded slowly. “He wouldn’t take no for an answer. He was even willing to build an elevator in my current apartment building so I could get around. But I told him I wasn’t staying there because I wanted to move closer to you,” she said, smiling at him.
“I just hope my stuff is okay. He was hit by some magic anon dust or something and was forced to be a kid and had no place to go. So I let him stay at apartment until he was back to normal.”
“That’s… so nice of you…” Jack said carefully. He didn’t like the idea of a man staying in his girlfriends apartment, even if she wasn’t there. Even HE hadn’t spent the night there yet… but. No point in being jealous of what wasn’t there. “But I still want to help.”
