Mackenzie tried not to grin as she pouted at Sera, doing her best to look as broken as possible. "I'm incredibly heart broken," She said, sniffing a little for emphasis. "All of these wasted years little sister, and now you have a wonderful wife! I'll just forever be alone thinking about what could have been, and what never was!" She leaned her head back dramatically, pressing the back of her hand to her forehead with her eyes closed. She couldn't help but let the small grin spread across her face though, and soon she was laughing, unable to keep up her seriousness any longer.

Sera's words sobered her up quickly though, and she frowned, biting her bottom lip as she stared at the table. She really couldn't shoot down anything that Sera had said to her, and she hated the fact that the girl's logic was so solid. "Maybe," she said quietly, picking absently at some loose skin on her finger. Tatum was still too much of a mystery, but she couldn't deny that she was definitely more than just a little bit interested in the girl. "I hate that you're always so damn logical," she said with a small laugh. "Know it all."

She was glad for the subject change, even if Sera had no idea what had split Colin and Tatum up. She was surprised to find out that that had broken up over the summer, it made her even more suspicious of the younger girl though. Why pretend to still be with Colin if she wasn't trying to cover something up? "Huh," she mused, glancing down the table at Tatum again and studying her with an interested look. "Maybe ickle Collie-kins got tired of being a beard! Or he found himself a nice boy to date and decided to let his big gay secret out. I'm sort of surprised she kept up the charade for so long, what's the point?"

"I'll take those as compliments." The younger girl grinned looking at Mack. She definitely couldn't argue with the older girl, she actually quite enjoyed acting like a know it all.

She couldn't help but laugh quite loudly at Mack's suggestions as to what might have happened. She was pretty sure the blond was right though. She turned and looked at Tatum again, still clearly laughing. "Yeah, I was thinking something along those lines."

Sera thought for a moment, looking was bit more serious but she still couldn't help an occasional smirk. She was pretty sure she knew what the point was but she could be wrong, it just seemed like the only thing that made sense really. "I think it was just easy with him, so it was hard to give up. If you're a girl who doesn't really want a boyfriend, Colin really couldn't be anymore perfect, right? Probably why she was with him so long too actually." She couldn't help but giggle a little. "She only had to see him when she wanted and was forbidden to tell him anything about where she actually is ninety percent if the time."

The younger reached into the basket that Jenny backed again and pulled out a juice bottle. Unscrewing the top she glanced down at Tatum again, and at Jenny and the others who were still busy eating and talking away. "It's pretty genius actually, I have to admit, if I ever need a fake boyfriend to trick dad, he'll definitely be from home."
