Another day, another dollar, another evening at home, and Charlie was starting to think of texting Rylee to see if he wanted to do something. She hadn't yet told him about the news she'd received only a few days ago, and being around him would be a nice distraction since she'd done everything she could to keep her mind off of it. Despite the week's previous events, involving unwanted bodily fluids, screaming matches, and overprotective acquaintances, she thought that she and her oldest friend were doing rather well. Part of her had and hadn't been surprised about how easily they'd fallen back into old patterns.
At the same time, she felt hesitant because whenever it was just the two of them - particularly alone - there was an undercurrent of awkwardness, of things wanting to be said and neither party being willing to be the one to take the first step. Charlie knew she was perfectly comfortable with the way things were at present, but was also quite aware that Rylee was and was not. Still, she had few to no other friends in the building, and if having to suck it up for an evening meant not being alone, she was starting to think it was the better option.
And all of those thoughts were scattered by a knock on her door. She wasn't playing any loud music, had left nothing in the lobby, and was pretty sure that there wasn't really anyone who would leave it to this late evening hour to bring to her attention a petty grievance that she'd caused. Jack, however, was not fazed by this development, instead approaching the door and giving a chipper bark, as he always did when there were visitors.
"Some guard dog you are, yah piece of shit," she muttered affectionately toward the German Shepard, giving him a quick scratch on the head before pacing around him to take a peek through the eye hole and see just who was looking to bother her as she was trying to make plans to go out.
