It had been a few days, and Caitie's mood still wasn't a lot better. The idea she'd told Maddie, to put up some kind of anonymous gossip blog thing on the intranet, was sort of making her feel better, but every day that her brother wasn't there, she felt even worse. She wasn't alone, she knew that. Not really, anyway. The Johnson's took her in like she was a part of their family, but it wasn't the same. Now, though, she needed to distract herself. She pulled her skates on—they were purple, and a little small for her, but they'd work for now—and stood up. “I wish we could find some happy pills,” she joked. “Both for me right now and for all the stupid grumpy people around.” She wobbled a little bit as she stood up, and struggled to gain her footing, then looked at Nick. “Your brother didn't go back to the city yet, right?” She knew Nick had been talking about that at one point, and while it would suck for her friend to have to deal with what she was dealing with right then, it'd also be kind of nice to have someone to relate to about this whole thing. |
