Who: Melody & Sadie
Where: Sunny's Diner
When: Evening
Sadie dragged her feet into the diner, the euphoria from her stop at the bakery and her time in the sun having begun its fading, leaving behind the road weary girl she was. Yet no email from Seeley telling her he was coming, and she was faced yet again with the lack luster choices of where to sleep. She could go back into Ann Arbor and hit up a shelter, or she could go wolf and rough it out... neither option held much interest, years of going between both choices killing the 'on the run' glamor.
She walked on up to the counter and claimed one of the stools as her own. After being handed the menu and asking for a water, Sadie settled down. So, long bike ride and shelter, or rough it as wolf? Sadie frowned into the menu, wishing she had a non-smelly or insect ridden bed to sleep in. Really, she almost forgot what it was like to sleep in a real bed.
Damn Riley's father, if only the blasted man had kept away, keeping his work away from the home. If he had only just stayed...
gone! Then she'd be back home, living happily with her parents, Bastian, Seeley and... Riley. They'd likely still be together, planning on going for the long haul. Seeley and Riley would still be friends, no killing glares being shared, no fear of him pulling out a gun and shooting Seeley and herself in the back... no more pain.
Really, life was nothing but a major pain in the ass.
( Enter the happy. )
