"You got it." He took the grape from her fingers, nipping her fingertips. The secretary called in, "Shawn, your lunch is here." He smiled. "I'll be right back." He slid out from underneath her gently and went to pay for his sandwiches.
"Great. Text me your address and I'll pick you up at 6."
Seri thought about it for a minute and then shook her head. "My face is a mess and he's out there. If he sees me he'll wonder what I'm doing with you."

She moved so that Shawn could get out.
"Sounds like a plan, see you on Wednesday."
Anna just hopped up on the counter. "Alright, what's going on? And I'm sorry, I don't think I've had the pleasure to meet you yet."

"I'm Seriana Laroque. Sophomore. The guy I was talking about is Braden Arnaz. He's here to make sure I don't turn into a whore like my mother was. But my mother wasn't a whore. She just had an easier time making friends with boys than girls. She was a mechanic just like I want to be and in that field, we're not very girly. My father thought that she was cheating on him but could never find any evidence. That's because she wasn't. Even the private investigator came up with nothing. She died awhile ago because she got cervical cancer. So it's just been me and my dad. He saw that I was making friends with boys and didn't like it. Braden is my second cousin like twice removed or something. His family has been here for as long as we have. My dad told Braden he needs to watch over me while I'm at school and chase them off. And so far he's been really mean to Micah and I know that if he finds out about me talking to Des he's going to be pissed. I just don't want to be around him any more." By the end of her speech she was crying again. She couldn't help it. She was so frustrated she wanted to punch something, mainly Braden.

Her heart went out to the girl. She slid off the counter and walked over to the girl and hugged her. "Shh, it's alright. If there is anything I can do, let me know. I'm so very sorry for your loss. And for your issue with your father." Outside of going to her house and rearranging her father's memories, she wasn't sure she knew how to fix this one. Though she was leaning towards meddling. Sometimes, meddling was needed.

Seri hugged the woman. It was greatly needed. She missed her mother so much. And she just wanted to have a normal life. "Thank you for listening. I guess I needed someone else to know. I don't want to go to the cafeteria. He'll make me sit next to him and I won't be allowed to talk to anyone else. Can I just go to the library or something?"

"Of course, Would you like me to grab you a lunch and bring it to you? You can go to Mr. Kirowitz's room or Mr. Savage's room. I can let them know your coming." She brushed the girl's hair out of her eyes and behind her ear. She was going to have to talk to Terryn and Ivan about this anyway and get their opinion on what, if anything, to do.

Seri looked up at Miss Tate with big green eyes. She was so motherly. She almost wished she would have said she could go to her office and just there. Reaching her hand in her pocket she pulled out a five dollar bill. "If you could get me just a pig in a blanket and a juice that would be fine. And I'd rather go to Mr. Savage's room if it's all the same. Thank you so much for listening."

"Keep your money sweetie and I'll let him know and meet you there." She smiled at her and left the restroom to get the girl's food.
"Terryn, sweetie, I'm sending a young girl your way to eat lunch on your room. She's not in trouble, she just trying to avoid someone who is causing her trouble."

Seri snuck out the door and raced lightly down the hall so she wouldn't be seen. She felt horrible sneaking around but it was the only way.
Terryn perked up at Anna's voice. "What kind of trouble and who is causing it?" He smiled at the young girl that entered and offered her a seat.

Anna relayed the information to Terryn about the girl and her issue. "But be careful. I wasn't suppose to share that information with anyone. But if you have any ideas on how to help her, I'm all ears."
Anna got the girl's lunch and brought it to her along with a chocolate chip cookie. Chocolate made everything better. "Here you go sweetheart. My door is always open if you need anything at all."

""No worries. I'll think on it. It sounds complicated. I can't believe the man is having a boy do his dirty work."
Seri smiled at Miss Tate. "Thank you so much. Just having a break feels good."

"Not a problem." Anna smiled at her and left for her office, hoping that Alex was back with food, her stomach was growling.
Stormy smiled at Shawn when he came back into the lounge. "So, what did you bring me?" She moved her legs so that he could sit back down.

Shawn sat down sand pulled out two bags of chips, one for him and one for Stormy. Then he pulled out his first sandwich. "I got a meatball sub and a hot Italian sub. Chips for both of us and... Motherfucker forgot my drink!" He growled as his eyes turned amber. He shut them and took a few deep breaths. It really was too close to his moon.
Alex waited patiently for Anna in her office. He had several containers of the different things they couldn't live without when eating Chinese. He turned when she came in the room. "So? How did it go? Was she actually sick?" He guessed whoever it was wasn't actually sick. Just hiding. They had one every year.

Stormy just placed her hand on his arm. "Woah, easy killer. There's drinks in the fridge, I brought some in this morning. And I'm stealing half of your italian sandwich." She just rubbed his shoulder.
Anna walked in to see her desk covered with food. "Oh, this... This is why I love you! And it's alright. She's not sick. She's sick of stupid bullshit. But she'd eating lunch in Terryn's room and he's helping me think of something to help her out on the long run." She grabbed a set of chopsticks and dug in to the dumplings.
"So have you seen The Voice around? I haven't seen him since this morning."

Shawn leaned his head on Stormy. "I'm sorry. This one night be a bad one. I don't know why. You sure you want to spend it with me?"
Alex smirked. "Oh he's been around. If he wasn't the lead SRA I'd think he was casing the joint. He acts like he's searching for something. I swear he's opened every door and explored the entire building. Does he have PTSD?"
