"We're gonna need to come up with some relaxation techniques before you end up pulling your back out from stress," I chide him quietly as I rub my hand up and down his back, pausing low on his spine to rub the tense muscles just at the dip there.

When he mentions my homework, I can't help but laugh. "Honey, it can wait. It's only the first week; there's nothin' I'm fallin' behind on, I promise."

That... is probably a little bit of a lie, but what Jack doesn't know won't hurt him. I smirk when he pretends to make like he's getting up, increasing the pressure a bit on the base of his spine. "Anyway, I'd rather be right here than doin' just about anything else anyway."
