Jesse got home at 12:21.

The dorm was quiet.

You couldn't hear a single sound coming from any room.

He decided to let them know he was present.

"I'm home!"

Approximately 6 seconds later he heard a door open.

Out came Tae Young.

"Hey, Tae"

"Hey, we're with Robaire"

"In his room?"

"Yeah"

"Why?"

"He's crying"

"What?!"

Jesse quickly ran to Robaire's room and threw the door open.

Jesse:
"Robaire?!"

Robaire was on his bed with his head in his knees and his arms around it.

He hurriedly went over to his friend and sat down beside Aaron Z.

Jesse:
"Robaire, she was wrong, ok? She was talking crap and I'm pretty sure she didn't know what she was saying or talking about. You do matter. To me. To us. To 4★Townies. We love you, Robaire, and nothing she says can change that"

Robaire:
"Y-you really think I-I care about what she said? What really hurt me was t-the fact that she said it"

Jesse:
"I think she was just a little mad. But why?"

Robaire:
"I thought I was actually s-starting to like h-her but then she says that? I thought she liked me t-too, Jesse"

Don't ask why he's stuttering so much.

He has hiccups.

Jesse:
"Oh, come here"

He pulled his buddy in for a hug.

Aaron T:
"We're here for you, Robby!"

Aaron Z:
"We'll always be"

Tae Young:
"And we'll never leave :)"

Robaire:
"Th-thanks, guys"

Jesse:
"Your hiccups are making you sound funny," Jesse laughed.

They a tagged along.

But Robaire suddenly got confused.

Robaire:
"Um, Jesse, where exactly were y-you today?"

Jesse:
"Uh, I walked around the city to get my mind off of this whole situation"

Robaire:
"Anyone with you?"

Jesse:
"No, why?"

Tae Young:
"If he's asking like that then you know he knows something"

Jesse:
"Uhh..."

Robaire:
"I can smell t-that perfume. The one that Claire always w-wears on special occasions"

Jesse:
"W-what?"

Aaron Z:
"You don't have hiccups"

Jesse:
"What?!"

Robaire:
"Were you with Claire???"

Jesse:
"What the heck, why would I be with Claire?"

Robaire:
"I don't know"

Tae Young:
"Maybe you were on a date you never know"

Jesse:
"I just had a break up-"

He looked at Tae Young unbelievably.
