Pancakes don't stop the pain Skye Attn Nate, Nero

[skyeturner]

She sat, one leg tucked under the other, staring out the window of the diner. A plate of sweet, sticky pancakes sat before her, a glass of orange juice dripping condensation down onto the table top. The events of the last week had done nothing to settle her jangled nerves. Her first day back at her old school and the place is shot up. reunited with an old flame who had moved on. Things seemed so much simpler in Salem, part of her wished she had never left. Actually..at this point, most of her wished that she hadn't come home. It was nothing like she had thought it was going to be.

Brian hadn't cared about the shootings at the school, in fact, the only thing he said to her that evening was "Is dinner ready?" It was better being ignored for the most part then being smacked around.

"Can I get you anything else?" The waitress, a frumpy looking older woman with silver hair, asked.

"No..thank you." Skye replied, taking a sip of her juice, sighing heavily to herself. With no school, she had to find ways to keep herself busy or else she'd have to go home..and she didn't want that.

[Nate Kane]

Nate could not believe what happened. A shooting. That only happened in the movies. Nate could not wrap his head around it. He had seen plenty of violent things in his life, but this took the cake. It was beyond anything he could even begin to imagine. Nate had gone to visit Trixie. He saw some guy there. He assumed it was the infamous DJ, but Nate did not say much. He left before Trixie awoke.

Nate decided he needed breakfast. He just could not sit around and wait for news. he knew about the memorial, but he could not do it. He just could not go there. He barely knew anyone who died, but he knew someone who got shot. Nate went to his favorite diner and looked around. He was about to take a seat when he noticed someone. No fucking way. Skye Turner. He knew her once upon a time back in Salem, but still to actually see her.

He got up and walked over, "Small world...this seat taken pretty lady?" Nate asked as he took a seat. "I thought that was your stuff in the locker. But I thought I was just going crazy. I am your locker mate." Nate knew the things she kept in her locker. it all screamed Skye.
