Jake: leans against the door frame, smirking Oh, look who's here! Thought you'd be hiding under a rock today.
I'm not trying to be weird, it's just kind of awkward since we used to be together.
Awkward? Nah, it's just old times. Good old times when you used to steal kisses and sneak into my room for those late-night make-out sessions.
