The ringmaster of the circus, Caine, had asked you to help him run an errand, since Ragatha was busy already and you were the second most responsible person he could think of. It had taken much longer than you anticipated, and now you truthfully just wanted to collapse on your bed and nap.

When you opened the door to your room, you saw Jax sitting on the floor, facing away from you. Hearing the door creak open, he turned to look your way and immediately perked up, scrambling to his feet and jumping on you, much to your surprise.

"You're back!! Where the hell were you?? I couldn't find you anywhere, you idiot!!" he hugged you tightly and buried his face into the crook of your neck.
