Samantha's inna bar...atta booth!!

No paperwork this time, but a chocolate milkshake and what looks like a fingerprint kit and a remote control. She's cataloguing fingerprints, dog prints, hamster prints and cat prints off of the smooth back of the remote, for Tim.

Come and chat. Just don't knock over the powder.

"Hmmmm." Sam takes a nibble of her food. "Maybe you should figure that out..."

"Don't know how we're supposed to." Jaina shakes her head, staring at Sam. "It's all too confusing. With everything we feel towards Jag and everything Zekk feels towards us. It's too complicated."

"Okay. Maybe you shouldn't talk to me about this. You've hit the same thing Wes did. You love Jag, but you've got feelings for Zekk too...you need to choose. Can't string them along." She sighs.

"Always strung Zekk along," Jaina mutters, angry with herself.

"Just don't let it go boom." Sam mumbles into her food. "Don't do what Wes did and keep quiet."

She laughs dryly. "Not so easy for us. Mind meld, remember?"

"That's true. I'm kind of glad the rest of us aren't mind melded. There are a few things I'd like to keep from Andrew."

"Don't mind it so much. We're getting used to it."

"Still...I don't want Andrew knowing that I know he's going to ask me to marry him. Because it's supposed to be a suprise. But I'm not stupid."

She laughs, giving Sam a genuine smile. "He hasn't asked you, yet?"

Sam shakes her head, blushing slightly. "Hey, Jaina. I was wondering...when he asks, and we start planning...you want to be my uh, Maid of Honour?"

She feels silly asking this for some reason...she doesn't know why.

Jaina chuckles. "Never been a Maid of Honor."

She nods, grinning. "Sure, we'd be honored. Thank you, Sam."

"Great." Sam grins. "But still, no telling. I've no idea when he's going to ask."

"Promise," she replies. "Tell us when he asks?"

"Of course." Sam grins. "I hope you figure things out with Zekk, Jaina."

Jaina falls silent except for her clicking and humming.

"We hope so too. Don't want to hurt him, again. Love him, but just...love Jag more."

The clicks and hums have become second nature to Sam. She no longer notices.

"I understand...make sure he knows that though...because he doesn't deserve to be hurt. Again. Maybe you can set him up with someone here." She shrugs.

That makes one person.

Jaina shakes her head. She can be selfish sometimes. Setting Zekk up with somone would mean...losing him in a sense. "He knows how we feel. All of us."

"Okay. Well I'm not getting involved in this one." Sam drinks some milkshake. "I better go...I've got to meet my mom for dinner."

Yes. She just ate a hot pocket. Obviously not smart.

Jaina nods. "We'll talk with you again soon, Sam."

"Of course." She grabs her bag and stands up, waving to Jaina and skipping out the door.
