Jared was waiting at his house for Eve to arrive. He'd heard that she was in Seven and having been back for a week now, he thought it was as good a time as any to finally get back in touch with her. It had been too long, and he felt bad for neglecting their friendship. He sat on the sofa and waited for her to arrive. Myia was upstairs with Jace but he didn't know if she was trying to settle him or not.
Hearing a knock at the door, Jared limped to the door, stupidly without his crutch so it took him a little longer. Opening the door with a smile, Jared invited her in with a hug. "Okay, it's been way too long." He said.

Having been in Seven for a couple of weeks without hearing from anyone, Eva had been surprised to be contacted by Jared. Pleasantly and happily surprised, she missed him, Myia too. Heading towards their home, Eva had stopped briefly to redo her shoe before continuing to the house. Eventually reaching it, Eva paused for a moment before knocking on it, not exactly sure what to expect, Eva had noticed a change in her personality recently, something she just couldn't put her finger on, couldn't quite figure out.
For a split second Eve had wondered in anyone was home but then Jared was there at the door with a smile and a hug and any doubt she had passed away. Here was someone she knew wouldn't abandon her. Nodding at his words, it wasn't long until she noticed the crutch. Frowning at it before flitting her gaze up to Jared, Eve raised an eyebrow, questioning look on her face, "did you fall over and break your leg or did something else more serious happen?" She asked, stepping into the house so that they weren't letting all the cool air from outside in.

In all honesty, Jared was just in shock Eve had turned up. Deep down, he knew she would but there was a little shred of doubt that said they'd lost touch for far too long and it would just be awkward between them. But, they were friends, good friends. And in his book, friends didn't turn their backs on each other just because they hadn't spoken in a long time.
Jared laughed at her comment. He'd never been particularly clumsy, not even as a child, so for him to fall and break his leg was an amusing thought. The reality, however, wasn't. "Um, no." He began, wrapping his fingers around the back of his neck as he tried to find the simplest way to tell her. Dropping his hand back down to his lap, he took a breath and laughed once more, a little more tense this time. "I... kinda got shot... Twice." He nodded and looked up at Eve's face to see her reaction. "I went down to help with all the stuff going on in Four and some Capitol recruit shot at me... And let's just say they have a very good aim."

Eve felt herself go cold, rigid as she looked from Jared to his leg and then back again. Stuck as to what to say, Eva rubbed a hand over her forehead before finally stumbling out with a "you should sit down then." Eve told him before going to sit down on the sofa herself, hands wrapped tightly around each other. The Capitol, she hated them. Somehow Eve had forgotten about District Four and the issues happening there again. Taking a mental note to go and visit at some point, Eve took a moment to look around the room before back at her friend.
"What were you doing in Four exactly?" Eve asked, not sure what else to say besides a typical 'you should be more careful.'

Jared sighed and sat down, it was all he seemed to be doing lately. Sitting and waiting for people to do things for him. He hated it, but the sooner it healed and he could get back to doing everything normally, it would all be worth it. "To be honest," He started, rubbing at his forehead in the same motion Eve had done previously. "I'm not particularly sure. The Capitol are trying to make advances and we were trying to fend them off." Explanations weren't his forte, especially when he wasn't one hundred percent sure about what he was explaining. Sighing, he looked down at the ground and cracked his knuckles absentmindedly. "It's all a bit of a mess really."

Raising her eyebrows at Jared's explanation, Eve picked at the edge of her blouse, tugging a thread lose from it's binning. "I didn't really know about Four." Eve admitted meekly, sucking in her left cheek. She really needed to start finding out about things again and ditch the recent hermit personality she'd picked up. "So, Myia let you go to Four or did you just go without telling her?" Come to think of it, wasn't Myia pregnant... or at least she had been the last time Eve had seen her. It had probably been long enough now that Myia had had her baby. Frowning, Eve pushed the thought to the back of her head,

Jared frowned, biting on his lip as he tried to recall what actually happened in the build up to him leaving. "I told Myia that I wanted to go and help, and she didn't want me to go, obviously, but I couldn't just stay here and let her home be ruined. Even if I had to come back a few months later having not done much, like I have, I had to try. It's her home. I realise it wasn't the best timing with Jace, but I knew nothing serious would happen. I wouldn't let it." His eyes flicked around the room as he spoke, finding it difficult to focus on one particular thing.
Seeing her pick at her blouse, Jared glanced over at Eve's face. "Eve, is everything okay? You seem a little... odd."

Jace... so Myia had been pregnant and she'd had a boy. Unless Eve had completely misinterpreted that; she liked to hope she hadn't though. "But something serious did happen, Jared. You shot shot." Eve reminded him, fingers knotting together just as she noticed Jared's look. About to ask him a simple 'what?' the word was cut away from her lips as he spoke to her. There were so many things Eve could say in response to his question but it didn't seem fair to launch them all upon him then and there. No, not when he hadn't been back very long. "Everything is fine, as fine as it can be for someone who died and then was bought back to life and now feels like they have lost all connection wit reality and their friends because they have essentially not really gone outside to communicate." Well, that was that then. The words had gone pouring out of her mouth before she had time to stop them.

"But I'm still alive, aren't I? That's the main thing." Jared fought back the urge to smile as he spoke but whatever hint of it was completely wiped off his face when Eve started explaining. "Would it be bad to say I'm glad you've told me?" He asked, raising an eyebrow. Having had no contact with her for so long, he didn't know anything about how she felt. He just about knew that she'd died and came back, but only heard that on the pipeline. "You've made the first step, right? Coming here today? After this, how much harder can it be? You're friends are still there, they're just waiting for you and they always will be, because that's what friends do."

At first all did was take Jared's closest hand and give it a quick squeeze before releasing it again. "I missed you, so much." Eve told him after a moment, a small smile crossing her face. She hadn't meant to tell him but now she was quite glad that she had, he seemed to understand. Or was at least willing to learn to understand. "Can you tell me about Jace?" Baby steps, Eve thought to herself, how she had become to reclusive over the past months she wasn't too sure but she knew it would take a while to break out of the feeling.

Jared squeezed her hand back and offered her a small smile. "I've missed you, too." He replied, pulling back his hand and placing it onto his lap. "Well," He began, not quite sure how to start. "He's six months old, he's a really easy baby and he's honestly the best thing that's ever happened to us." It was useless to even try and stop himself from smiling when he spoke about his son. "I can get Myia to bring him down, if you'd like to meet him?"

Noticing the smile on Jared's face Eve decide right then and there that she'd made sure Jace was safe, forever, in whatever way she could. Smiling to herself, Eve almost missed Jared's question, only catching the last few words. But it was enough. "Can I?" Eve asked, shocked for no logical reason. "I mean, he's not asleep is he, I don't want to wake him up." The idea of meeting this thing that made Jared and Myia happy pushed a warm feeling through her, something she hadn't experienced recently.
