There's something almost a little strange about the idea of Jack talking to Derek and I can't help but wonder if that means Derek knows or if he just thinks this whole thing between me and Jack is friendly. It's a silly thing to wonder, I know. What I feel for Jack is so much bigger than what I felt for Derek, but as hung up as I was for a time, it still catches.
Whatever the case, it's obvious Derek knows his stuff when it comes to food, a fact I've long known of course, but I make a mental note to thank him later for his contribution to all this.
Jack's voice is soft when he speaks again and I'm just in the middle of portioning out the fried chicken when I glance up to see him holding his camera up for a picture. Laughing, I cock my head at him, but I smile wide, letting absolutely everything I'm feeling shine through before I reach out to him.
"We should take a selfie," I say, dropping the chicken and wiping the grease off my palm before scooting closer to him. "After all, a boy only gets to celebrate his twentieth birthday once and I have no idea when I'll feel like I'm stuck in the perfect Disney movie ever again."
