The first thing Derek heard when he woke up was Liz bitching about how she couldn't leave the house and the only thing to watch on television was kids' cartoons, and she couldn't change the channel. "Oh hell, shut the fuck up, Liz," he muttered as he rolled over and pulled the pillow over his head. He was halfway back to sleep, still listening to her when reality smacked him in the face and he remembered where he was.
The view out the windows helped.
He shrugged the pillow off and stared at her then crawled out of bed to get dressed. "What the fuck is going on?"
This began the day with Derek growling at everyone with the bitchy dead friend from back home following him around. He'd even tried outrunning her, but she'd just appeared by his side when he stopped. Eventually, he ended up at Hinkle's, slowly working his way through his second platter of burgers, trying to ignore the gnat chatting at him while watching everyone else go through the same shit.
"Do you ever fucking shut up?" he asked Liz, the dead bitch. And he just knew someone was going to think he was talking to them.
