After Sunshine had turned in her room key to leave, a week ago and a couple months ago, Bar had apparently kept it for her. When Rae had asked for a room key, she'd gotten... the same key, as if Bar had known she'd be coming back. It was a heartening gesture, but it also made Rae wonder how much the bar knew that she wasn't telling anyone.
Rae had not slept well, but she was almost resigned to the nightmares by now. She was awake and outside by the time the sky was just beginning to turn a lighter grey off in the distance, past the lake and the mountain. It would be a rare sunny autumn day.
She had spread a large blanket on the dew-damp grass so she could sit, arms holding her knees close to her chest, waiting for sunrise.
And it was there that she had dozed off.
