He was supposed to be the happy-maker, you know.

...

Grudgingly, she sat up and unfolded the parchment.

And stared at it.

And stared at it.

And.... really, really, stared at it. She was studying it like it was a novel, not an eleven word note.

She refolded the letter, robot-like, and.... just one glimpse at Jake...promptly burst into messy tears.
Oh no. Oh no. That had been the WORST THING EVER he could have done.

Jake.

Wuz.

A.

FAILURE.

His face absolutely FELL, but he didn't even think for very long because Neptune was CRYING and Jake didn't want to SEE her cry. It broke his heart.

SO.

He leaned forwards and, even though she'd probably push him away, he put his arms around her and hugged her close. "I'm sorry, Tune," he said in a choked voice. "I'm so, so sorry. I didn't mean to upset you... I want you to be happy-" and I don't know how to DO that "-I just wanted us how we were..."

Jake clung to Neptune, holding back his own tears, wincing at the sound of hers. He was willing to do anything to make Neptune happy... but he didn't know WHAT that would be.

"Everything... everything will be okay, Tune." You know... eventually... with or without him.
