"Well right now I'm kind of just laying low and enjoying my freedom. Maybe in the future I'll visit," Jesse said. "But Archie and I are actually headed out for a few days on a trip. Our flight is tonight."

"Jeez, I was just curious," Julia muttered, rolling her eyes. Sophie wondered whether she realized she was simply not welcome here. Not that it would matter. Julia had never really cared about boundaries unless they suited her. "Look, I know dad kind of freaked out on you, but I'm still your sister. No matter what he may say." Julia said.

"I get that Jules but I still have to protect myself. He's already come around once looking for me and I can't have him around again," Jesse said to her. "So if he ends up here, I'll know that you were the one behind all this."

"Good because I don't need him in my life. I'm doing just fine on my own and I'm making a life for myself and Archie," Jesse said smiling over at his boyfriend.

"I didn't mean to imply you weren't," Julia said. "It's Archie, right?" she asked, turning to Jesse's boyfriend. "I'm sorry we didn't get to meet before... Well before dad found out about you guys."

"You shouldn't," Julia replied. "Shouldn't get it, I mean. It's so bloody stupid, you guys should just be allowed to live your lives."
Although they hadn't been said with Sophie in mind, the words dug into Sophie's mind. Sure, Julia would think they should live their lives, but if she brought anything up she'd be in the wrong. Because she wasn't worth as much as Jesse and Archie. Not to their father and not to their sister, either. She took another swig of her drink then cleared her throat. "Are you guys packed and stuff already?" she asked, wanting to change the subject.

"Good," Sophie muttered, looking down at her cup. "If you guys have to head out soon you can, don't feel the need to stick around for us." And then she could kick Julia out and go take a long warm bath.

Jesse glanced at the time and he looked at Archie. "We should head out. Make sure to get something to eat before we get to the airport," Jesse glanced at Sophie. "Are you going to be okay?"

"If you need me Soph, call me. If I don't answer call Archie," Jesse said to her. He then glanced at Julia. "It was nice to see you too sis. If you are ever back in the area, reach out and maybe we can grab dinner or something."
