Leaned back against the body of his car, on the front driver's side of the vehicle, Boyd waited for Erica to emerge out through the set of doors of the high school. It had become pretty much a ritual for the two close friends. Boyd giving her a lift home, or anywhere else his best friend might wish to go after school let out for the day, once he had acquired his driver's license. With Erica being pretty much his only friend in town, since he moved there a few short years back, Boyd tended to avail himself to the girl whenever she needed him, or he felt she needed a friend.
Letting his gaze drift around the expanse of the lot, watching the flow of his peers, and teachers, flow out of the building, and then wander over to their vehicles, the parking lot gradually thinning out because of it. Some moved right past him with barely a glance, and nowhere near a visible acknowledgement of Boyd himself. A routine of others that he had gotten used to. It barely phasing him anymore. At least that was what Boyd kept telling himself.
A brow lifted when, from his peripheral vision, he caught sight of a car hood being lifted up. There was a bit of hesitation before Boyd took a step in that direction. He knew he'd likely be waved off or immediately dismissed, but he went with the initiative to try and offer his help. While he was by no means a certified mechanic, Boyd did know the basics, and then some, of automotive maintenance.
"Not wanting to start for you?" Boyd inquired as he approached the blond standing in front of the raised hood of her car. A teacher he was guessing, though Boyd wasn't recalling having seen her before.
