What was with the sudden exodus from the school? Starbuck leaving she understood - he had responsibilities to his daughter and her mother, and she admired that he was putting his family first. He was an incredible guy. Miklos, though, had also left - for some research somewhere, and she was honestly more than a little upset. She had enjoyed her independent study with him, and it just... ended. On top of that... No, she wouldn't even think about Charlie. She just hoped he liked the poster she'd gotten for him.
Heaven and Hell was reopening tonight, and she toyed with the idea of going, but she had work the next morning. And well, really, who would she go with? She was starting to feel very alone again. She hadn't hung out with Frankie in forever, things were still touch and go with Shaye, and, yeah... time to stop that train of thought.
She had gotten quite a bit done with her days off on Tuesday and Wednesday, and she really didn't have a lot to do this weekend. She could get it done after work, she was sure, so she decided to enjoy a night in. Getting into her jammies early, she popped some popcorn and flopped onto her bed to enjoy some junkie movies - the Goonies, Pirates... Hmm, seems she had a theme.
Goonies had just gotten started when someone knocked at her door. She didn't even have the chance to say she was coming when the person knocked again. A bit annoyed at the impatience, she called with some irritation, "I'm coming." Ready to snap when the person knocked a third time, she pulled open the door, and was startled at Simon's blurting. "Um, ok. Come in," she offered, immediately sensing a sort of urgency and losing her frustration. "Is everything ok, Simon?"
