Jara

Jara (J/erome and M/ara) is the pairing of Mara Jaffray and Jerome Clarke. It is revealed that Jerome has strong feelings for Mara; however, he never directly tries to break her and Mick up. Jerome asks her out but she turns him down due to not having solved "the whole Mick equation." Jerome has told Mara a lot about his past, which seems to be a subject he likes to avoid with others which means that he trusts her to keep it a secret.He even told her how his parents left him to 'rot' there. It is unknown if the two of them will ever date because Mara is still dating Mick. This pairing rivals Mickra, Patrome, Jamber, and Nerome and possibly May (Mara and Joy).

This pairing is known also as Marome (Ma/ra and Je/rome) and Jera (Je/rome and Ma/ra).
