Kind of? Whatevs, sure. Today he'd be fine.
When Dexter continued to wriggle, Jake lowered the toddler down. Dexter held onto Jake's hands and stood on the young man's feet, ready for Jake to start walking. But that wasn't happening yet.
"I missed you too, kid," he smiled, feeling slightly relieved. "Well... I guess you aren't a kid. And I definitely don't hate you. I just... I thought you'd left for good. I was... bitter. I'm sorry."
Oh wow... Jake felt horribly guilty. But he had been a bit of a jerk.
"You're... tall."
Jake was supertall as well. But... it was still weird to see Tibi like... OLDER. Tiberius allowed himself to grin. "You're not exactly a shortie, yourself. Growth spurt, all that." He bent down to pick up and reshelved the books he'd knocked over when the Dexter cannon!ball bounced into him. "I convinced mum to let me back. I never really thought it would happen." It had been her decision to leave, too, though he didn't fight her on it, at all. "I'm sorry it couldn't have been sooner so we'd have had another term together at school." "I'm glad to see you found your thumbs after I left."
