Jason's mother sighed and brushed away her tears,shoulders shaking faintly but,just like Jason,she refused to shed anymore tears. "Well then.I am grateful for the boy that I do have." She said,smiling to Jason that same fake smile he gave to everyone all the time and he returned the same smile. Both where so alike.

Ash had to look away, knowing that smile all too well

Jason then stood and walked over and sat by Ash on the other side of his father,Lavender letting him and walking over and sitting with her little sister again.

Ash smiled a little at Jason coming over

He smiled to Ash,a bit of a real smile. Jasper put a wing around the boys,his dragon tail behind him,and he smiled to them. "Now,I'd love to hear what you have been up to my dear little boy.I'd love to hear of your adventures." He said but Jason winced faintly. "Well,Lila made me dance again." He said,half joking. His father grinned and laughed softly. "Ah,that little girl of yours has her ways." Jason sighed. "She's not my girl,just a friend." "Yes my dear boy,sweet child I know.I know."

Ash fell silent again, wanting to comment on how good his dancing was, but he held his tongue

But Jasper smiled down at him. "Dear boy,I feel you wish to say something? Speak freely,no one is to judge here." He said kindly,sweeping a hand out at the small group.

Ash shrugged. "I was just going to say that I saw Jason dance and..." He smiled. "It was amazing."

Jason blushed in embarrassment and his father nodded,smiling proudly as well did Jason's mother. "He dances?" She said and Jasper nodded. "Yes,and I agree with the dear boy here. He does it very very well. It's a true pride to see him do it." He then spoke softly to Ash,bending over and whispering to him. "Do you think you could get him to dance for us? His mother has never seen him before so I think she would like it."

"Can you hold Crysta?" He asked, handing her over to him
