Jack apparates to Speare Mansion for the second time in three days, looking around.
It was about time he met this 'boyfriend' of his baby cousins and see if he was good enough for her.
He was all set to ask his nosy-protective-cousin-questions.
Pulling a cigarette out of his pocket, he shoves it into the corner of his mouth, tapping his foot impatiently.
He had sent a guy an owl telling him to meet him here, then again taking into account Jack's illegible writing though it'd be understandable he'd be a little late.

I apparate home with my fist clenched around my wand in my pocket.
I'd got enough notes telling me to be somewhere to know to be cautious of them by now.
But there's a guy I've never seen before, so probably never offended before, standing there and relax again slightly.
"Er...hello?"

Jack looks up spotting a guy walk towards him.
Must be him. He grins to himself, switching the cigarette to the other corner of his mouth.
"Well, well. you must be Ian." He says, circling around him."Bit on the small size, aren't you?" He chuckles then holds out his hand,"Jack Tucker."

"Yeah, I'm Ian," I arch an eyebrow at his comment, then glance at his hand before shaking it.
At least he hasn't tried to kill you yet.
Still making you nervous.
"Er...can we stop with the circling?" I ask, then can't help but add sarcastically, "Much as I like being put on the spot and all..."

He laughs and stands infront of him,"Sorry." He grins,"So, your Ian." He repeats again, watching him carefully.
He had no idea what she saw in this guy, but if he made her happy.
"So your the one who has stolen my little Mini-Madds heart eh?"

"Yes, I thought we'd already established I am in fact Ian-..." I stop, "Another relative? So are you planning a quick and painless death, or am I going to suffer?"

"Yup, another relative." He grins,"Cousin number whatever, I've lost track of how many of us there are." He laugh,"Death? Oh boy..Charlie-doodle-all-the-day has been threatening you has he? Got to have a talk with that runt." He shakes his head,"No worries, not planning on killing you."

"Hmm...could say that," I shrug slightly, "Er...well, that's a relief, I guess. So, what do you want then?"

"What I have to have a reason to come interrogate the one who has stolen my baby cousin's heart?" He laughs,"Never mind don't answer that." He grins taking his cigarette out of the corner of his mouth,"So, how long you two been an item?"

"Oh, interrogation, well...joy," I mutter, "Erm...a few months, I think."

"Hmm." He nods, clicking his mouth on the roof of his mouth,"You love her?"

"Yes," I reply immediately, folding my arms across my chest, watching him.

He watches him, crossing his arms over his chest.
Body language could tell you a lot about a person.
"Hmm." He says again,"How much do you love her?" He asks, wanting to know if this was for real or another one of those teen-romances.

I decided I was probably more at ease trading insults with Owens than being interrogated by him.
"More than I could put into words." I answer without hesitation.

A smile tugs at the corner of Jack's lips,"Hm. Good answer." He says,"I've also heard you've knocked her up, you lose points for that." He says,"You gonna help her with the kid? or you gonna run?"

"I'm not a coward, I'm not running," I reply expressionlessly, wishing I could have put more conviction into the words.

"Alright then man, nobody called you a coward." He says simply putting his hand into his pocekts,"Also heard your a Hunt, that true?" He asks raising an eyebrow.

I arch an eyebrow in reponse at the phrasing of the question, A Hunt, like it was either Hunt or human.
"I wasn't aware we were a different species now," I reply.

"Well to most pure bloods we are." He replies,
"The ones which our noses stuck so far up our ass we can't see that we're about to fall off a cliff, according to my sister." He chuckles,"Your not one of those types are you?"

"I'm not a pure blood. Mud-...muggle born." I shrug.

"Ah." He nods,"But adpoted by the Hunts then? Heard you mum kicked the bucket, afraid to say I'm not sorry. She knew and disliked my aunt Abby, rest her soul." He says,"But anways back to my questions." He says,"Damn, now I forget them." He chuckles rubbing the back of his head.

"Yeah, she's kicked the bucket," I smile, then quickly stop smiling, knowing I probably shouldn't be, "About bloody time is all I can say."
"Er...does that mean I'm off the hook then?"

"I'd drink to that, but my sister says I'm not allowed to drink anymore or I'll start yelling about the piink bunnies again." He chuckles,"So guessing you didn't like her?"
"And no your not off the hook..er..age? House?"

"I'm not allowed to drink either. Or smoke." I shrug then mutter, "No I didn't fucking like her."
"18, Slytherin."

"She's cut you off then? Bugger." He laughs,"18, little Mini-Madds shall be that age soon, breaks my heart seeing her grow up so fast. Oh a snakey? With a Gryffy? Wow. How's that working out for you?"

"Yeah," I laugh slightly, "Yeah, a snakey with a gryffy, working out fine, obviously."

"Least you two are happy. Got a name for the little rugrat, if it's a boy name it Jack, and if it's a girl name it...Jackleen." He laughs.

He lowers his head disapointedly,"Man." He chuckles snapping his finger,"Well then what is it? It's not something stupid is it? She didn't name it after any of us morons did she? We've all got some pretty odd names."

"No, and your names are normal compared to my family's." I laugh slightly, "If it's a girl, Abby Claire, if it's a boy...um...Alex Rowan Gideon."
