Jess passed her a sorry sort of smile as she sat back down. "I appreciate it and I would if I could. It's just... well getting home late is one of the things we fight about. But it's not me, so it's hypocritical to do it." He didn't have any idea why he was explaining any of this to her, but they had never kept secrets. Jess didn't talk about this to anyone. The last time he'd tried, Gabe had thrown it all back in his face, so he'd stopped trying. Which was part of the reason he bottled it all up. It was weird and both unsettling and freeing to talk to Lila about it now.

"Another time, I'll ask if she wants to join us." Jess suspected no, Fallon didn't exactly have fond memories of flying, but he would extend the invite and let them figure it out. "Speaking of, I should probably get home. Thanks for listening, Lila." He'd needed that more than he had imagined.
