Trying on a New Life (RP for splice-of-life)

Jan 28, 2010 21:26

Matt sat on the edge of the bed, nudging one of his unpacked boxes with his foot. He'd never planned to take over Mohinder's room, and he wasn't going to make anything permanent. Not yet. But the man was right; healing gunshot wounds would have been even less pleasant if he'd been sleeping on the couch.

And his life was unpleasant enough as it was. A plane trip clear across the country, just for a huge fight, and an immediate return trip... He pushed the thought of Janice out of his mind. He had friends here, people who cared about him, who didn't lie... And then there was Molly. She made all of it bearable, really.

He finally brought himself to his feet and rummaged in the abused box for a pair of jeans and a t-shirt. He might not be ready to go back to work, but he wasn't going to lay around in bed all day. Not anymore.

Making his way out into the living room, Matt leaned awkwardly against a wall, already tired. He was pathetic.
