While Eleyna’s speech was most definitely encouraging and inspiring, it did nothing to change Jake’s decision.  He had already decided to continue on the journey.  Of course before he got a chance to respond at all Aisha beat him to it.  Though not with anything actually said.  Instead everything she had drank and ate came up in the common reaction to so much alcohol.  At least she had the courtesy to turn away and lose it all away from him.<br/><br/>When the girl dropped into his lap, the startled yelp of the pokemon that had occupied that space rang out as Eve darted out of her seat and onto the floor looking surprised.  All before growling at the curvaceous girl and taking a new spot next to Jake.<br/><br/>Jake just sighed and looked down at the girl now using his lap.  Wasn’t this picture supposed to work the other way.  Absently Jake ran his hands through her hair lightly.  Finally having the chance to reply.<span style="color: green">“Yeah, I’m staying even with that thing trying to scare us off.  I’m not going to coward out.  Was never going to once that thing threatened us.”</span>He agreed with Eleyna, but not with the enthusiasm.  He had already been planning to stay, but seeing a girl he had been trying to flirt with and take to bed puke right beside him had killed that enthusiasm.<br/><br/><span style="color: green">“I’ll see you all in the morning.  I’m going to put Aisha to bed then get some sleep myself.  I recommend you all do the same.  We will need sleep before we leave in the morning.”</span>As Jake spoke he carefully worked his way out from under Aisha.  Before he moved around to her side to reach down and pick the girl up.  One arm behind her back, the other below her knees.<br/><br/>With her in his arms, Jake moved through the building to where the Futons were.  Gently setting Aisha down long enough to roll on out along with a blanket.  Then he put her in bed and tucked her in before standing and starting to move away to get his own set up.  He had absolutely no intention to take advantage of her state any more than he had.<div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
