We all say things when we're pissed off in the heat of the moment that we don't mean; Aaron has said plenty of times that he's not going to talk to X for the rest of the series, Aden said it about Louise as well, I don't see why it comes under so much scrutiny now that Jay has said it. And he's not really expecting Aaron to "jump to what he wants" by apologising and admitting he was wrong. It's the other way round really, Jay has had to jump to what Aaron wants and swallow his pride because it was the only way of getting Aaron to even utter a word to him

Aaron came in, Jay said he could come and sit with them so they could have a proper discussion because he realised it wasn't just about the two of them, they needed to resolve things as a group and also considering he'd been out there slagging Louise off then she does have a right to defend herself as well tbf. And I think he became more confrontational because Louise was kind of inflaming the whole situation in a way

Jay and Aaron had already spoke(calmly) about this, and decided nothing else was to be said.

Minutes later Jay is talking about it with the others, and brings it up AGAIN. Then gets all confrontational when he has backup, rather than speaking calmly like he does on his own. Yes, Louise inflamed it further, but the point is...why did he start going on about it again after already deciding to drop it?

And Aaron is in the wrong?

There is not a negative atmosphere because of Aaron NOT mentioning it at all...Aaron has yet to say ANYTHING to Tom and Alex about the presents being for show, so he was clearly not wanting to create an atmosphere between them all. He said it to Jay, and Jay alone, Jay and Lou then continued this...making a massive deal about it... and made everyone else uncomfortable.

It is Louise and Jay that brought that up infront of them and to them, thus making Tom and Alex uncomfortable too.

Why the need to bring everyone else into their argument?
