Poetic

Hearing Maggie's deal, Garret's eyebrows rose. He didn't have time to respond though, when Nate walked in. Leaning his head back, his eyes followed what was going on, until Maggie held out the pills. It took him a moment before he rolled his eyes and took them to pop them into his mouth and swallow without water. 

He glanced up at Nate next. "Your sister is quite a little hustler, you know that?" He sighed and slid back down to lay on his back, and gave Maggie a nudge with his knee as his eyes fell shut again. "Do what your brother says..." He paused before the next words finally came. "I'm not going anywhere."  


Travis chuckled as Ashlee shoved his shoulder, giving her a little nudge back. Maybe a lot of things were screwed up about this whole thing and why he was here...but at least he was making a new friend...and a cute one at that.

"Mm...that's kinda poetic, ya know? I like it." He squinted into the dark, then pointed. "Lightning bugs are starting."

It was quiet again for a few moments as he thought. About a lot of things. "Ya know... My mom, she likes the city. She thinks I like it too but...out here... I dunno. It's like it calls to me. The open country." He shrugged. "But I don't know where my road leads anymore."


"Hey, Sleepy." Kirk eases down to sit on the edge of the couch, holding a cup of coffee. He took a strand of Adison's hair and tickled her face with it. It was early morning, and he didn't know about her, but he had to be to the office on time. He'd already been up and showered and dressed for work.

"Coffee is black as can be," he tempted her.
