It's weird, isn't it?

[Sam's had that experience more than once.]

When you stay on the move for so long, standing still feels a little ... unnatural.
matriarchate: (heard)

[personal profile] matriarchate 2021-02-14 04:29 am (UTC)(link)
And wrong. It's like a betrayal of what I could be doing.

( Who she could be helping. She still has a network and her dad will run things while she takes a break, but, she'll still be answering E-mails and texts. )
imnot_likeyou: (Default)

[personal profile] imnot_likeyou 2021-02-14 04:30 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. But if you keep going, you might burn yourself out.

[Breaks are good. Even if he and Dean are really bad at taking them.]

It's okay to put yourself first sometimes.
matriarchate: (attention in sun)

[personal profile] matriarchate 2021-02-14 04:33 am (UTC)(link)
Do you ever take your own advice? What's... next for you, anyway?

( She sits forward, resting an arm on the table. )
imnot_likeyou: (Default)

[personal profile] imnot_likeyou 2021-02-14 04:38 am (UTC)(link)
Sometimes. We're actually taking one right now.

[Oddly enough.]

Dean wants to stick around for a while.
matriarchate: (catching breath)

[personal profile] matriarchate 2021-02-14 04:41 am (UTC)(link)
He does?... Not because of Stiles.

( Please. )
imnot_likeyou: (Default)

[personal profile] imnot_likeyou 2021-02-14 04:45 am (UTC)(link)
[He's quick to shake his head.]

No, no.

[He pauses, because he's not sure this is his to reveal, but it'll put Allison's mind at ease.]

Because of Elena.
matriarchate: (downward strap)

[personal profile] matriarchate 2021-02-14 04:50 am (UTC)(link)
Oh.

( That's - well, she wasn't expecting that. )

Okay.

( That's better is what that is. )

What about you?
imnot_likeyou: (Default)

[personal profile] imnot_likeyou 2021-02-14 04:55 am (UTC)(link)
[He raises an eyebrow, trying to see what she's getting at - what is he up to or does he have a mysterious small town girl that's suddenly come back into his life:]

What about me?
matriarchate: (dr — um)

[personal profile] matriarchate 2021-02-14 04:57 am (UTC)(link)
( She could go several places with this. She could ask about a small town girl. Or, any girl. She could ask about his work. Or, she could woman up. Lydia will have a story for later. )

Is there a small town girl you're here to romance?
imnot_likeyou: (Default)

[personal profile] imnot_likeyou 2021-02-14 05:01 am (UTC)(link)
[Oh. Oh.

He eyes her, weighing his options before answering.]


No. Not one from here, anyway.

[Allison technically still counts as a small town girl, right?]
matriarchate: (we're right)

[personal profile] matriarchate 2021-02-14 05:03 am (UTC)(link)
( She could. She's more the transfer student, but, she was transferred to several small towns, including Beacon Hills. )

A nice girl from somewhere else? She sounds like a handful.
imnot_likeyou: (Default)

[personal profile] imnot_likeyou 2021-02-14 05:08 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, you could call her that.

[He smirks as he leans back in the booth, drumming his fingers lightly against the table.]

But that tends to be what I'm into.
matriarchate: (from the plans)

[personal profile] matriarchate 2021-02-14 05:13 am (UTC)(link)
... Do... you want to get out of here?

( She could text Lydia that dinner might be a little delayed should things move in the more horizontal direction. )
imnot_likeyou: (Default)

[personal profile] imnot_likeyou 2021-02-14 05:21 am (UTC)(link)
[He hesitates. Not because it's a line he doesn't want to cross, but because it's still a line that they would be crossing.

But for right now, all they're doing is leaving. There's a lot of steps before they get to that point.]


Yeah. Sure.

[He'll throw down some money for his tab, pack up his stuff, and let Allison lead.]
matriarchate: (brighter tomorrows)

[personal profile] matriarchate 2021-02-14 05:30 am (UTC)(link)
( It is a line, but he's not on her payroll. He is a family friend but he's age appropriate. And her dad has never championed the guys she likes. For once? She's doing it herself. Sliding back out, he holds her jacket in her hands as they take a walk down the block.

She quickly sends a text to Lydia. She may need to get her own food if she's hungry, Allison left with Sam... And when that goes out, they're rounding the side of the building.
)

There. So, Lydia won't worry. I'm sharing her room until we find a place. ( And... ) Where are you staying?
imnot_likeyou: (Default)

[personal profile] imnot_likeyou 2021-02-14 05:33 am (UTC)(link)
[He makes a small face, because:]

Back at the house with Cas and Jack.

[And his brother, but he will send a text off to Dean to see where he's spending his night.

Meanwhile Lydia will just respond accordingly.]
matriarchate: (hm well)

[personal profile] matriarchate 2021-02-14 05:34 am (UTC)(link)
Right. We are two teenagers.

( Okay... )

Where do teenagers go to do these things in small towns?
imnot_likeyou: (Default)

[personal profile] imnot_likeyou 2021-02-14 05:42 am (UTC)(link)
Well. If I remember correctly from when I was living here ...

[Which was a long time ago, so take these recommendations with a grain of salt.]

There's the Old Mill, or the Falls or fun civil war cellars which I'm ninety percent sure some of the local werewolves use for full moons.
matriarchate: (at her locker)

[personal profile] matriarchate 2021-02-14 05:51 am (UTC)(link)
( Isn't the Old Mill the only mill? )

Civil War cellars. Is that what does it for you?
imnot_likeyou: (Default)

[personal profile] imnot_likeyou 2021-02-14 05:54 am (UTC)(link)
[He holds up his hands.]

Not me. I just went to high school here.

[And let's be honest, Sam's enough of a romantic that he would probably have picked the Falls if he was going to be getting creative with his sex.]
matriarchate: (chaotic)

[personal profile] matriarchate 2021-02-14 05:55 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe the Falls... Do you have a blanket in there?

( ...Or. )

There being the car. Did you drive here, or walk here?
imnot_likeyou: (Default)

[personal profile] imnot_likeyou 2021-02-14 05:57 am (UTC)(link)
I did drive.

[They'd still need somewhere to park, but to at least stop standing awkwardly outside the Grille:]

Want to go for a ride?
matriarchate: (hm well)

[personal profile] matriarchate 2021-02-14 06:09 am (UTC)(link)
Yes. I would really like that.

( And so they drive! )
imnot_likeyou: (Default)

[personal profile] imnot_likeyou 2021-02-14 06:12 am (UTC)(link)
[So they do! And the great thing about Mystic Falls is that there are a lot of open empty spaces where they could kill the lights and the car will probably go unnoticed.

Any vampires that would try and prey on them would be making a grave mistake.

But once they do find a good spot, Sam glances over and asks, because he isn't the kind of guy who usually goes from zero to sixty.]


So.

[A pause as he tries to figure out how to say this.]

You sure about this?
