Ping

Giving a smile and nodding Katie watches as Hunter walks away. There really was so much more to him than anyone saw but she kept getting glimpse of it and the more she saw the more she liked who Hunter really was underneath the pain and bitterness. 

Turning around and almost running into Eric Katie stumbles backwards a little bit. That will teach her to watch where she is going. Giving a smile and a nod of apoligie she was about to step around him when she stops again at his words.

It was almost as if for a moment she was stunned. A sickening feeling formed in her stomach as the nice day seemed to get a little darker. It wasn't Eric's fault and she was thankful he told her even if at the moment she was wishing he hadn't.

   "Oh, ok thanks Uncle Eric."

Turning around Katie makes her way to her bunk now. She was going to see if anyone needed help in the mess hall but now...now she didn't much feel like it. Once back at the bunk she sinks down on the bed and lays on her back.

Many things ran through her mind and it was hard to just find one to fall on. The only thing she kept coming back to was Jason had called, he hadn't called her, or texted her, he's called the ranch directly and avoided talking to her all together. It sent a strange pang to her heart as a tear slipped out of her eye and rolled down her cheek making its home on her pillow. 

   "Say you'll do it or I will think you don't like me anymore."

Giving a soft smile to Alec Misty pushes off the counter and grabs the tea pot. Filling it with water she places it on the stove. It was warm out today but a nice cup of coffee would help her relax enough to sleep tonight that much she new for sure. And after all the events that happened today she was going to need something that would just relax her mind.

Hearing Alec's words Misty is quiet for a second. Maybe the simple answer just wasn't going to work with Alec. Than again he was a Bank's and sometimes the simple answers just didn't get through there thick skulls.

   "Everyone deserves to have someone who cares about them and you have never broken my trust so why should I not be?!"

As the tea pot whistles Misty turn and takes her cup pouring the water into it and than place the teabag in the water. Coming around to the other side of the counter she pulls out one of the other stools and sits down next to Alec holding the hot liquid.

   "Ya know Alec, I know what The Agency does to people. They twist there minds, make them feel like there is no way out. Gives them power, feeds there desires, and give them no hope. I've been there, and I've made many mistakes myself in the name of the Agency."

Taking a sip of the hot drink Misty just lets it slide down her throat. It felt good, and it warmed her a little bit. Tea always had the affect of relaxing her no matter the situation.  Even in a tense conversation like now.

   "Everyone deserves to get out and have a second or third chance. The fact Alec that you here when all hope was lost and not back in the "safety" of the Agency tells me something. It tells me your learning, and even if you have a lot of learning left to go, thats ok because we all do."
