As Ed walked back into the party, a voice caught his attention.

"Ed!" It was Ameristar.

"Yes, Jackie, what can I do for you?" He replied, nonchalantly.

She grabbed his arm and pulled him over. "What is your problem tonight? You know this is the first time Crasher has been out since. . .since the incident, and yet you're not making this easier for her a bit."

"Jackie, I. . ." He started, only to be drowned out by a very loud voice. "Comrade Jackie. . ."

"Oh, god, it's Blackwulf again, " Ameristar said, "Kiss me, Ed."

"What?"

"Just do it! Quick!" Before the startled Edulcore could respond Jackie pulled him to her and kissed him full on the lips.

"Comrade, Jackie, where are you hiding at?" Blackwulf said, walking around the party, "Is being midnight, time for celebrating. . ." Blackwulf wandered by the two, completely missing them.
