"Well?" asked Jack as he opened the box, "What do you think?"

Carly peered over his shoulder. She supposed that it was a hat, but only in the broadest sense of the word. It was huge, covered in black sequins, and was decorated with a feather so big that it would probably go almost all the way to Jack's shoulder once he put it on.

"It's for the benefit dinner next week," Jack continued. "You know, the one for the twentieth anniversary of Zero Reverse? If I do this right, everyone will know about me! I can just feel it!"

He paused, then said, "You still haven't said what you thought about it."

Carly, while trying to keep a straight face, answered, "I think you forgot the glove."

"You really think I should wear gloves? I wasn't planning to, but..." Jack trailed off as he realized just what Carly had said.

"Oh, very funny, Carly," he said sarcastically as he pretended to aim a swat to her head. Carly squealed and ducked, even though she knew he wouldn't really hurt her.

"And by the way," Jack informed her, "This is a cowboy hat, not a fedora." He crossed his arms, looking very smug that he'd gotten the last word.
Written for the JackxCarly fanclub at Janime. I realize that I used the word "think" a lot in here, but I couldn't thi...I mean figure out any good alternatives.

P.S. RIP Michael Jackson.

Very cute, Kirby, but shouldn't Jack buy Carly a hat? :D I do hope you get the reference.
