Dani manages a smile and she nods again. "Six sounds good." She chuckles. "Pick up some ice cream too."

Letting him go and heading for the door, she turns around one more time, just studying him for another moment. "See you later, Dalton."

Exiting his office, shes only walked a few strides before bumping someone's shoulder. "Oh, I'm sorry, I-" Her eyes fall on her brother and she backs up, now even more startled. "Carson, I... I... oh."

Carson's eyebrows rise as he reaches out to steady his sister. "Whoa. What's your hurry?"

"No... no hurry. I just..." She puts a hand to her head as a terrible feeling comes over her. "I have to go. I was just here seeing Dalton."

Carson grins. "Well I assumed that much." He cocks his head. "You alright?"

"Yeah." Dani smiles "Yeah, I'm fine." Her whole brief plan to go see him later vanished. "Still want me early in the morning at the restaurant?"

"If you can make it."

Dani nods. "I'll be there with bells on."

Carson laughs. "Alright. I'll see you then." Watching his sister walk away, he got an odd feeling that something was just... peculiar about her. But shaking it off, he continues his route to the infirmary to pick Misty up for lunch.


Justin nods with confidence. "I think it would be okay. There's still gonna be pain on both your parts - I won't tell you it's gonna be an easy visit. But the ice has got to break sometime and... I think he's ready to see you. Nothing much but... he's been alone quite a bit and I think it would do him some good."

He's quite for another moment, taking this whole thing nice and slow. "Do you want to meet us up there tomorrow, or is that too soon?"
