Jez leant forward slightly and kissed Nate softly. She smiled, hoping she'd done the right thing.
Nate figured out why he had used Jez's full name the moment her lips touched his. And seeing her smile after the kiss confirmed Nate's slight fears and secret hopes: he
did love Jez. Which, if you were to think about it, was sort of weird in a way: Nate didn't
really know Jez, yet he knew her better than anyone else except for Pam.
Nate was too busy to get caught up in this, though. Too busy actually grabbing Jez's hand lightly and kissing her on the cheek. "You're right," he whispered when his lips were right by her ear, "I don't think there
is anyone else quite like you."
