Jake could feel a pull towards Tari but he resisted, she wanted him. But he couldn't do it as of yet. He needed to watch from a distance for awhile. Give her time to fully cool down.
Sucking it up, Tariana shrugged.
"Oh well. There's nothing I can do, and it's best to not dwell on the past." Trying to perk up, she bumped her shoulder playfully against Embry's.
"At least I have you here with me. Like a giant piece of home." She smiled up at him, her best friend. At least she had him with her. She'd be okay with him by her side.
