Considering Jack looked like a scared twelve year old (http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d181/ruzila/SWaTH/future%20verse/Jack12.jpg) until he turned fifteen, his first date wasn't until high school either. His late blooming was the reason he could never be vain about his looks and often missed interested looks. It didn't help matters how fast he grew either--stretching like a bean pole then taking a couple years for weight to finally add on.
He was tempted to ask if she preferred there be other women in his life given her responses but rethought the idea. Jack didn't know what else to make of her last response over the subject. Fortunately, they had the bakery to distract them. He planned to walk around with hands in the pockets of his slacks when she took his hand and tugged him to the case. The move was comforting given the exchange they had moments before stepping in.
"Yes," he answered simply with eyes on Jane. His heart pounded in his chest. He hoped she wasn't too disappointed with his romantic history. Her words seemed to indicate as much. Answering her now how Jack did, looking into her eyes, he would be able to tell how badly he screwed up. Maybe he would be destined to have bad taste in women after all.
