Ice Cream

Heading out of the living room and into her bed room Beth pulls out her bag and sets it on the bed. As she puts a few items she would need into it she could help it that she mind wondered. Was going to Justin's really a good idea? Was there more to this offer than just not wanting her to be alone? Could she really trust him?

Trying to shake those thoughts from her mind she thought it crazy to even double guess what Justin's motives where. He's had helped her with so many things, and on so many levels, he was just once again trying to help her thought a rough patch. 

   "Alright, I think I'm ready."

Coming out into the living room Beth has her bag slung over her shoulders and one of her pillows. She didn't know if she would need them or not but it never hurt to bring one. That was a little bit of home was with her too. She was about ready as she was going to be.

   "Nope, I could get tired of eating the same thing everyday, or watching the same movie every day but not you. You always surprise me with something new. "

Giving a smile and not taking her eyes off Jared she could read him pretty clean. Today he was not really feeling this and his hope and willpower was starting to dwindle. That was the last thing Grace wanted to happen and she had to think of something quick before he went into a down ward spiral.

   "How would you like to go for an adventure. I saw an ice cream shop on my way up here and I think for today you have done pretty good. Might be nice to get away and just have a little fun too. All work and no play right?"

Graces eyes give a little sparkle. It wasn't something amazing but it might put a little spark back into Jared. Ice cream made everyone feel better no matter what was wrong. It would be time away, doing something and not just working on his legs. Maybe going about this whole thing would be different with Jared. She might have just to think of different ways to make this more fun.

Entering the dinning hall and seeing Hunter at one of the far tables Katie can't help but smile. She wondered if Justin was getting use to the early hours or if it was determination to not let her Uncles get the best of him that made him wake early.

Going into the kitchen and grabbing a bagel along with a cup of coffee she returns to Hunters table. Setting her stuff down she clears her throat a little bit as her eyes give a little dance. Every morning just seemed to get better and better. Standing there for a long moment just watching Hunter with his eyes closed Katie finally speeks.

   "So is this seat free or are you saving it for someone?"
