Though things had calmed down for Molly, they wee just getting started for Chase. He'd been in this place barely a day, and Gert had already left. Things were uncomfortable anyway, be he'd hoped she'd stuck around longer than that instead of leaving him to figure out things for himself. There was really a part of him that still thought that the windshield his head had connected with had put him into a coma, and all this was a heavily medicated dream. None of this was real, and it was more likely that he was dead ( ... )

"Oops, sorry," She accidentally dropped the list when she ran into the other, kneeling down to pick it back up and continue walking. She'd caught a glimpse of the boy that she'd run into as he walked past her, only really seeing his back. Yet, there was something familiar about the person, she recognized him, and it didn't really sink in until she'd already turned the corner and he was out of sight...

She knew him. She immediately felt bad that she hadn't recognized him sooner, but she was still having a hard time wrapping her head around the possibility that there could be more than one version of a person here. She'd just resigned to the fact that all of her friends were older now.

Without even thinking, Molly turned and ran back around the corner, catching up to the boy and wrapping her arms tightly around his waist, her cheek pressed to his back. "You jerk!"

The voice had been familiar, but Chase had ignored any thought that wasn't about the task in hand currently, finding booze. It did however click when she ran into him, and his stomach sank with dread. He'd been told that Molly was here, and had hoped to avoid her for a couple of days till he could figure out what the hell was going on.

For the moment he said nothing, because yeah, he was a jerk. She'd been so upset, and so had Klara, and he had been too wrapped up in his own shit to realize or care. It was different now--Gert and Old Lace were here--but he still felt like he was going to wake up and everything will be back to being fucked up.

Chase glanced down behind him, with a frown. It was obvious he hadn't slept since he'd gotten here, and he looked terrible.

"Molly..."

She didn't mean that he was a jerk for any other reason than the fact that he'd walked into her and didn't even notice... Not that she could really say anything since it took her so long as well, but it didn't matter right now. It didn't matter how confusing it was that there were now two Chases, and the long that she hugged him, she realized that he wasn't the same as she'd last seen him either. He was older too... But it was still Chase.

She didn't see the frown or notice anything was wrong. She was just happy that, hopefully, she wasn't the only one from their relative time period, that maybe she wasn't the only on that didn't know about whatever bad thing had happened to the others.

Molly wasn't letting go just yet. She didn't think that she really missed having him closer to age as much as she did, but this was Chase, her big brother. How could she not miss him?

"How long have you been here?" She finally let's go, wiping something from her eye as she looked up to him. "Your hair has gotten longer."

It was hard to look at her and not feel like he should be there for her. Fuck it was like when she died all over again. He wasn't sure if he could do this with Molly right now--he still had a lot of shit to work through like the whole thing with 'Hunter' and pretty much everything that happened the night he'd come here. He was starting to think that pretending it never happened would be the best bet. He just hoped Molly didn't know about it too.

When she let go he turned around and looked down at her, running his hand through his hair with a sigh. A weak smile was shot at her before he noticed that she looked like she was crying. Okay. Time to buck up, you idiot.

"Only since yesterday," he said, putting his hand on her head and wiggling the hat in an attempt to ruffle her hair half heartedly. "Has it?"

It wasn't until he finally turned and looked at her that she had any inkling that something must have been wrong. The only thing was, she didn't know what was bothering him, or even if she was just imagining things. Chase had always been a little more serious after Gert died, as most recently as she could remember... Dangerously so, even.

She didn't know what was wrong this time, though, and while she appreciated him trying, she kind of wished he could have really been happy to see here, even though she knew that while she hadn't seen him (like this) in months, for him had hadn't even been a few days.

"Where are you living? Do you need a place to stay?" She was trying to be positive. "I could ask Warren if you and Old Lace can move in!"

Chase shook his head and motioned to the front of a dilapidated motel he was staying in. "They gave me a room already, Mol. Thanks anyway."

It was her next comment that threw him off. She was obviously not from his time. If she was, she'd know that Old Lace wasn't. Well. He ran a hand through his hair and frowned down at her.

"Old Lace isn't with me," he said, pausing before he gave her a small, forced smile. "Who's this Warren guy?"

He did feel bad that she had to see him like this. It would take him a while to get over his stuff, and he'd hoped to had gotten over all the baggage he'd brought with him before they met. He was too fond of her to put her through this shit again.

So much for booze run.

"I know. I used to live in one of the hotels too. They're kind of gross, really, and bad things happen sometimes ( ... )

ithaslasers November 6 2010, 23:53:15 UTC

Chase frowned down at her. "Bad things? And where're you staying now?" he asked, glancing up at one of the hotels that was further down the street. If there was somewhere nicer he could stay, he'd be interested. Though it wasn't the worst he'd stayed in, it was a stark contrast to Malibu. Not that it was habitable anymore.

His eyebrow did raise when Molly mentioned that Warren was looking after her but not because he was an X-Man (though that automatically dropped his trustworthy points down a couple of notches). It was because he knew the others were here--or at least some form of them, and the fact that Molly was relying on someone else was not on. Even if he had his issues, Molly would still always be high up there.

"Wait, aren't the others here?" he asked her, frowning some more. "Why aren't they looking out for you?"

Chase watched how sad she looked, and felt almost bad that he wanted nothing more to get away and get some beer and pass out so he didn't have to think about any of this. He sighed, and rubbed the back of his neck ( ... )
