Raising his eyebrow at the statement that females would one day be the most important thing in his life, Jake focused on watching Lawson's grass progress. "The few girls I'm like real good friends with are weeeeeeeeirrrrrrrrrd... Like... Dani slapped me, Shana tries her hardest to annoy me even though she apparently fancies me, and I ripped Reese's hair out last year, and then she was all nice, then mean..." Then again, Reese was his sister now, so it no longer counted.
WOAH! Favourites...? "You..." Jake started to say, before trailing off and eyeing the grass. "No... no it's g-... okay, it looks like it was attacked with a lawnmower."
Honesty is the best policy... right?
"Well gee thanks Jake, for a moment there I thought I had made a good impression on you" Marcus replied wryly but he was grinning. He knew he had a lot to learn when it came to kids.
Females were weird even Marcus had to agree with that and they didn't necessarily get better with age either. Of course he had once been in a band and had been quite weird himself so he couldn't really talk. "Don't bother trying to work them out Jake, just go with the flow. That's my advice. Of course I have the worst track record when it comes to females so maybe my advice might not be the best." He looked at Jake and then burst out laughing, he was sitting here talking about girls with a soon to be thirteen year old. He really was weird.
Marcus looked at his dismal attempt at a braid and then threw it at Jake laughing. "Well I can't be good at everything now can I?" He snorted as he flopped back onto the grass and looked up at the sky. "Man I haven't been in camping in years. We should do that when we go to the beach."
