[OOM: Jaina returns to Ossus to do some thinking away from Zekk.]

Jaina's been back from her brief trip to Ossus for a couple of hours now, having head straight up to Zekk's room to talk with her friend. Now, both Jedi are down in the bar, sitting next to each other at a booth as Jaina attempts to teach him the finer points of dejarik.

It's almost as if last night's kiss never happened. But that's not true. The kiss - and everything tied up with it - is still rather prominent on both their minds. It's just easier not to admit it, even to each other.

"Even if there were, it would probably be none of your buisness," Zekk says, wrapping an arm around Jaina's shoulders.

"Ok, backing off. Though whatever it is, wouldn't be surprising, considering your bond."

He added, "You can't get much close quarters than what you two have now. Bound to affect things."

His words do strike some level of interest in Jaina. "What do you mean by that?"

"That it won't be surprising?" Zekk adds in.

Jaina and Zekk both chuckle at the last statement. "Right," they say in unison.

"Uh, no, it definitely wouldn't."

Peter glanced between them, "Almost sound like a married couple anyway, just with a twist."

Jaina rolls her eyes. "We're not together in that sense. We have a..."

That sentance doesn't get finished as Jaina remembers the fight she had with Jag.

"We're friends," Zekk admits reluctantly. "Have been since we were kids."

Peter nodded, "Never know. Weddings seem to all the rage around here lately."

"But probably reading into something not there, right?"

He then got up, "I should get something to eat, good talking with you again, Jaina, and nice meeting you, Zekk. Was enlightening to say the least." And boy was he glad that the mind meld he had was temporary.

"Right," Jaina replies coldly, glaring at Peter.

Didn't mean anything.
Yeah, right.

Her face softens a bit, and she gives Peter a small smile. "See you around, Peter."

"Nice to meet you, too."
