Who: Matthew Russell and Rene Haney What: Meeting for dinner When:Backdated to Monday Where: Cambridge, MA
Meeting up with the reincarnate of John Locke didn't seem like the best idea, especially after the weekend he'd just had. Then again, it wasn't the worst idea either. Matt liked meeting new people, and Jack had this incessant need to check up on all the other ex-castaways.
There was bad stuff going on on the Island, so they might as well all work together. Getting to know each other was a step in the right direction. She seemed less spazzy than the new Faraday and less completely freaked out than the new Desmond anyway. And of course there was the new Ben, who was, so far as he could tell, exactly like the old Ben. He wasn't too sure what to think of Rene though. She seemed smart and interesting. He could go with smart and interesting.
So after work he hopped the MTN to Massachusetts instead of Toronto and headed for the spot they'd agreed to meet, then waited for a woman he'd never actually met before. Technically. See you in another life, he thought to himself, amused. They had no idea.
