The Two Sides

<Snipped quote by jaywing93>

Sacha stiffens at his touch. She rolls her eyes a bit. "For starters you can't kiss me. Ever. Secondly, you aren't allowed to go on patrol alone. You must be with at least one other member. And lastly, no weapons. "

@Fionraella

Jett sighed. "Sacha, am I being invited to join as a member or a prisoner?" Why is she still trying to punish me? he wondered exasperatedly. He smirked slightly and added teasingly, "But don't pretend you didn't enjoy that."

Sacha rolls her eyes at him. "I'm extending an invitation to rejoin the group." She crosses her arms. "This is me trying not to be selfish. So you can either come with me now, or not, it's up to you. But I might not be so willing to let you rejoin if you show up later." She begins heading back to camp.

@Fionraella

"Sacha!" Jett shouted, jogging after her. He grabbed her shoulder in an attempt to get her attention. He met her gaze seriously. "What's the catch?"

The Two Sides

<Snipped quote by jaywing93>

Sacha blinks at the kiss. She stands, shocked as he pulls away then apologizing. She opens and shuts her mouth, trying to find the words. She groans loudly. "You just had to kiss me, didn't you Jett. " she huffs, shaking her head. She exhales softly, then tosses a rock at the back of his head gently. "Cmon loser. Let's head back to camp."

@Fionraella

Jett winced as the rock struck his head and he placed a hand on the spot where it had hit him as he glanced over his shoulder in confusion at Sacha. He turned to face her and blinked, not moving from the sidewalk. "Umm... I'm confused," he sighed.

<Snipped quote by jaywing93>

Sacha chuckles slightly. "True. Fabine doesn't like to forget things like that..." she shakes her head as her memories of their time together try to invade. She clears her throat as they reach the town. "Alright, well this is where I leave you Jett. "

@Fionraella

Jett nods wordlessly. He'd managed to go years without having to say goodbye to Sacha, and now all of a sudden, here he was. He pulled his backpack over his shoulders firmly, and took a breath as he stared across the street at the brightly lit storefronts. He turned to her and gave her a nod before stepping out into the street, when he suddenly froze. Unable to control himself, he whipped around and grabbed her wrist, pulling her closer to him. He pressed his lips against her's fiercely, but gently, and held the back of her head with his other hand. After a long moment, he slowly pulled back and met her icy gaze with no regret. "I'm sorry," he whispered. He wasn't exactly sure what he was apologizing for, but it was much easier to say than 'goodbye'. Turning his back to her once more, he continued across the street. Once he stepped up onto the sidewalk on the other side, he paused, and started to glance over his shoulder, but he stopped himself.

Sacha nods. "Sounds like you have it all figured out." She comments, looking ahead to the town. "Did you even consider joining the Broms?" She asks, wondering why the Rabins, and his ex, we're his frst choice.

@Fionraella

"No," Jett replied simply. I left so I wouldn't have to see her get hurt. I'm not going to join a group whose sole mission is just that, he thought. He avoided saying this out loud, and instead added, "I'm pretty sure they'd remember me, and Fabine isn't one to forgive and forget." He paused for a moment. "Honestly, even if I could, I wouldn't."

The Two Sides

<Snipped quote by jaywing93>

Sacha nods. "I know it was." She let's some sympathy enter her voice. She sighs heavily. "I'm trying to do better. It is hard to find a balance between the two..." she glances at his face as though searching for something. "Any idea what's in the town for you?"

@Fionraella

Jett stared ahead into the distance, just barely able to make out the faint light from the street lamps. He shrugged lightly. "It shouldn't be too hard for me to find some work, and it'd probably be easier for me to move on from this town as soon as I can," he reasoned. "Somewhere close to a forest so I can shift, but somewhere with a little bit more action than this town." He tried to hide just how frightening all of that sounded.

The Two Sides

<Snipped quote by jaywing93>

"I was a new leader! A lot of members were from before I was leader. If I hadn't done everything to be the strongest I could be, then people wouldn't respect me later." Sacha shakes her head a bit. "I'm sorry if that came off as selfish, that wasn't my intent. I was just trying to do best by our group. .."

@Fionraella

Jett let out a sigh and shook his head slightly. "You were always the Rabin leader or my girlfriend, Sacha. You just could never bring yourself to be both." He paused for a moment and retreated slightly. "But please don't think that leaving was easy for me. It was one of the most difficult things I've ever had to do," he added, his voice strained.

The Two Sides

<Snipped quote by jaywing93>
Sacha gives him a harsh glare for a moment. "If you hadn't been so selfish too, things could have worked out somehow." She sighs heavily, shaking her head. "Though I'll admit maybe I was selfish, but maybe not in the same way as you're thinking."

@Fionraella

Jett met her glare evenly. "Well, what do you think I'm thinking?" he challenged, suspecting that any words she put in his mouth in her imagination weren't unbiased. "During those last few months, I asked you so many times, I begged you, to pull back a bit, for my own mental sanity. But you never listened to me."

The Two Sides

<Snipped quote by jaywing93>

Sacha snorts as he cuts in front of her. She raises an eyebrow. "Thick-skinned?" She shakes her head. "Right." she rolls her eyes. "Fine then Jett. How about you explain it to me." She sneers. "Simple terms of course, because I may still not understand." She crosses her arms. He was so frsutrating at times!

@Fionraella

Jett gritted his teeth and ignored her prodding. He took her offer seriously, and attempted to bring himself back to two years ago. "You've got one of the bravest hearts out of anyone I've ever met, and so I understand the way you always try to protect the Rabins... even if it means putting yourself at risk," he began, his speaking slow and broken up as he tried to find the right words. "But as valiant as you probably thought you were, you were also pretty damn selfish," he stated matter-of-factly.

The Two Sides

<Snipped quote by jaywing93>

Sacha stops in her walking to face him. "Why the sudden want to know what I remember?" She demands, crossing her arms. "Look Jett, we're not friends. We're never going to be friends again. That part of our lives is long gone. So stop reminiscing." she begins walking again, annoyed at him again.

@Fionraella

Jett let out a frustrated hiss and raced up next to her so he could look her in the eye. "Sacha, I swear to god, sometimes you're so fucking thick-skinned!" he snapped. "I'm sick and tired of you treating me like shit because it seems like you don't even understand what happened between us two years ago."
