Ashley rested her head on Jeffs arm as they walked, holding onto his waist- They were quiet a couple of minutes, then she asked,
"Jeff...how do you see us, 10 or 15 years from now ?"
"What ?"
"I mean, do you see Us together, same jobs, you know-"
"I see Us together, Me in a rock n roll band kickin' ass. You wouldn't have to work-"
"So you see Us together ?"
"Of course darlin', don't you ?" she shrugged,
"Yeah. I do." he kissed her cheek,
"Why're you thinkin' about 10 or 15 years from now ? What's wrong with right now ?" she leaned her head on his arm again,
"Just thinkin' is all-" he knew something was bugging her, he started to think maybe something did happen between her & Jesse, he decided to wait until they got to his house to say anything-

Jada went to the garage, Chris, Jimmy & Kenny were hanging around, smoking, except Chris, he hated smokes-
She walked up, her car was parked out in front of the garage,
"How's my car ?" Kenny smiled, going over, reaching in and turning they key on, her eyebrows raised,
"Wow !" he nodded, his smiled widening,
"Purrs like a kitten, don't she ?" she smiled,
"Thanks Kenny- How much ?" he shook his head,
"Nah- I did this on my own time- You just owe Jake for the parts, and he cut you a damn fine deal-" without thinking, she hugged him,
"Thanks, this is awesome !" he laughed,
"That's one way to pay me-" she pulled away,
"Oops, sorry-" she glanced at Jimmy & Chris who looked amused,
"I don't mind none. How's Pappy doin' ?"
"He's fine. He asks Jesse how you're doing. You know he wants you to work againonce you're off probation-" he nodded,
"I'm planning on it. Me & Jesse had a blast runnin' for Pappy. Nite drivin'-" she nodded,
"I remember-" a look passed between them, then she said,
"Thanks again, and tell Jake I'll be by tomorrow to talk to him about the bill-" he nodded,
"Later Jade-" she smiled & waved to the guys, they waved- after she left, Jimmy was giving Kenny a look, Kenny said,
"What's wrong with you ?" Jimmy laughed, shaking his head,
"Nothin's wrong with me Man- You want some of that, don't 'cha ?" Kenny smirked, walking to his truck,
"See ya's tomorrow-" he left, Jimmy looked at Chris,
"It wasn't just me, right ?" Chris laughed,
"Fuck no ! They want eachother !"

Jesse & Tom were at Toms house, they'd been mowing the lawn, fixing the gate- then went & sat on the porch, drinking beer, listening to music-

At Jeffs, Ashley called home, telling Tom she was staying at Jeffs-
