“Maybe I do, maybe I don’t,” Micah grinned. He, of course, didn’t tell her that he often just came in here to read, he didn’t tell her that he loved to make himself a coffee and sit down with a good book. A normal person might have guessed it, but Talhia, in his mind, seemed distracted. He opened the door and flipped on the light in the hall way before turning and gesturing Talhia to follow him. He walked towards the Café, often flipping on switches just for the heck of it.
"This is my world at night. This is where I go when I want to be alone. Mostly where I come when I'm depressed, or happy." Micah laughed, wondering why he just said that to a girl he met barely 30 minutes earlier. "My sister says I'm always depressed, probably because I don't talk as much as her... Plus I have insomnia..."
He lead the way to the Cafe and started searching around in the cupboards for something. He finally found it, a book that looked like it was taken from the library. He showed her and put a finger over his smiling lips, as if it were a secret.

"Is this her, young man?" A nurse walked up to Caleb, his face fell on Evan's pale face and he said, "She's not dead?"
"No, Roy," a female nurse came behind the man she called "Roy", "She's still breathing."
Roy grinned and said, "Oh right." He gathered up Evan and took her outside of the bathroom. Eyes followed them as he laid her on the bed that was in the ambulance. The female nurse hopped in after her and Roy said to Caleb, "Are you coming?"
"Duh," the other nurse said from the back and Roy went red again.
"Seriously, Sarah?"
"Seriously, Roy." Sarah said, obviously supressing laughter, "Don't you think the boy wants to see if his girlfriend is going to live or not? I mean really..."
"Well, come on then." Roy said to Caleb, looking disgruntled. He followed nurse Sarah and peered curiously at Evan before turning to Caleb again, "Do you know what happened?"

Happy Easter and Happy Spring.
