Violet can't sleep tonight. She is worried about her relationship with Jay and her cat's echos are bothering her so she decides to go for a run in the woods (the same place she found the body?) to get away from everything. By the time she comes home, Jay is sitting in her driveway. He asks to go for a walk together and she leads him back to the woods.They started talking about a party and Jay gives her a smile catching her off guard and she trips over a root scraping her hands and knees. Jay picks her up to carry her home but she is a little stubborn and tells him to put her down and he does.She had hoped he would insist on carrying her but he grabs her hand instead. "She didn't argue." He does carry her up the back stairs of her house and sets her on a counter though. Jay cleans off her scrapes and bandages them for her. She likes how he is taking good care of her."She admired his patience and took perverse pleasure in his touch." She hopes that she can get over this crush so they can get back to normal, but where's the fun in that?
