Monday hadn't been a bad day, what with having coffee with Xander and visiting Jarod at Caritas. But Revolutions shook Isabel up a little more then she would have liked. So she returned to her room and curled up on her bed to watch something mindless on the laptop.

[Door is closed, post is open!]

Sometimes after River, Jack stopped by Isabel's room, carrying a box under one arm.

He tapped gently, not wanting to risk waking her if she was napping.

"It's open," she called out as she sat up.

He slipped inside, and smiled at her. "What are you watching?" he asked, setting the box (http://www.lutyens-furniture.com/images-lighting/horsehair_star_lantern.gif) next to her on the bed.

"Just some Monty Python," Isabel shrugged. "It's amusing." She picked up the box and looked at it, understanding at once what it was for. "Thank you."

"You're welcome." Jack shrugged, looking pleased. "It's beautiful, anyway. How are you doing?"

"It is. It'll help. Thank you," she repeated, reaching up to hug him, if she held on a little tightly, for a little longer then usual, Isabel was sure Jack wouldn't mind.

"I had my first class today. It was hard," she admitted. "Mostly because of the subject matter. But it was good to see Bel. And Bridge, Sam and Parker, they all were looking out for me."

Far from minding, he hugged her tightly. "Was that a good thing or a bad thing?" he asked, imagining that it could get a bit wearing.

"It wasn't bad actually," Isabel admitted. "They didn't push. Just tried to distract me and make me smile."

"Hey!" Jack dropped to sit next to her and nudged her with his elbow. "Isn't that my job?"

"It is. But since you can't be with me constantly, they were picking up the slack," she smiled. "I bet it gave you a chance to rest up for your thingies."

Jack laughed, looking way too satisfied, and stretched out his legs. "Resting. Yup, that's what I spent the day doing."

"Yeah, sure," Isabel said dryly, recognizing the look. "I don't have to ask if you enjoyed yourself. You're oozing smugness."

"Sorry," he said, making an effort to be less smug. "I did get some rest, though, so it wasn't a total lie."

"Good. Otherwise you are going to have to do a schedule to give you a day of rest," she smiled. "Either that or I'll just keep you here."

"I can stay," he said, immediately kicking off his shoes and setting the box on the floor. "I don't have anywhere to be until tonight."

"Oh? Big plans?" Isabel leaned back against the wall, settling comfortably in the spot next to him. "And what are you doing after class on Thursday?"

"Not plans, more like intentions. I want to track Cedric down." He shifted sideways until the line of their bodies touched. "I don't know," he asked with a grin. "What am I doing after class on Thursday?"

"It's his night?" she grinned. "Parker and I are going to the spa. Sam's going to come if she's feeling better. Aeryn, Xander, Zero maybe. Do you want to come with us?"

Something like that." His hand automatically swept up to cover the spot where tattoo lay under her shirt. "Sounds like fun," he said lightly. "Last time Sam went, she came back smelling edible."

Isabel couldn't help herself, she flinched. Forcing a smile, she tried to cover it up. "Well then you'll need to make sure that's her night."

"I think I can arrange that." Jack rubbed her shoulder, fingers slipping up to massage the back of her neck. "Sorry, Izzy."

"It's okay," Isabel said, trying to relax. "I just never really forget it's there."

"It'll be gone soon, like it was never there." Not that she'd forget it, but it had to help. "Until then, distractions," he said firmly. "I never did tell you how I got kicked off that planet without my clothes."

"No you didn't," she smiled. "We've got time. Tell me now."

Smiling and laughing, she listened to him talk, able to put everything else aside just for a bit.
