It'd become John's habit, as had been noted before, to sit out in front of McKay's for his lunch break, sandwich rested on his leg as he watched people go by, occasionally waving, smiling, even saying hi ( Read more... )

It was sunny and warm outside as Rachel walked to work, and part of her regretted that she'd have to spend such a nice day inside when she wouldn't have minded a nice long run, or a swim, before the summer days started to slip into fall. But she wasn't one to skip out on work, and with any luck, the evening would be balmy and pleasant, and she ( Read more... )

So, she knew. She now knew what everyone had been apparently trying to keep from her. Kate being pregnant, expecting soon. A child for John. Not her John, but a John. Kyle, looking so worried, Derek seeming to be waiting for her to do something stupid, John not even there ( Read more... )

Rachel was exhausted. And sore.

She was sure she could find something around here that needed attention, but she couldn't focus worth a damn. She even dozed off once with her head propped in her hand, though her chin slipped out of her palm and jerked her awake rather quickly.

She got more coffee. It helped a little. Thankfully she hadn't reached the ( Read more... )

[happens after thisHe was off tonight which was a good thing. One could only take so much watching people tipsy or worse, drunk and having to talk sense into them when they have had too much.

Vaughn had promised to come by and see Rachel at some point after texting her back and forth, but had been kept relatively busy with Jen the cat and Leslie, who always seemed to be there either just when he needed her or even when he didn't...and he found that he enjoyed it. He tried to be there for her as well, and more than once found himself ( Read more... )

No one's safeThis was the mantra of the Connor's life since that night it changed forever (the night she met Kyle Reese). It had proven true enough time and again that it wasn't even something either John or Sarah thought anymore. It just was. The other was 'no fate but what we make,' but that, they were both learning here in Hauvratat, wasn't true ( Read more... )

It was the light that took getting used to. The mess passing as weather back in LA made everything consistently dim and gray. It had never been a problem for him to see clearly, but he supposed he owed that to his less than human attributes. The sun on his face, now, was startling, and he kept his head ducked. His gloved hands were still in his ( Read more... )

Unlike back in LA, here, John was avoiding Cameron. He couldn't help it. He had no idea what to do with what he knew, with what had happened, with the loss that he still held on to. He's got her chip. He's got herBack at work, though, finally, he chewed on his lower lip as he saw Cameron come in to the shop, focusing his concentration on the dvd ( Read more... )
