Helpless

About to reply again Sam stopped seeing Hal coming. If Aaron wanted to play this kind of game she could play alone. His comments didn't bother her at all. It was actually rather amusing. Her brothers use to pick on her pretty bad so she was use to it in a way.

Continuing to walk Sam took in everything about Aaron. The way he walked, the way he breathed, even the look of thankfulness that was in eye for only a moment. She observed him and it made her wonder more. Who was Aaron really. 

Getting back to his cell and hearing his comment Sam crossed her arms over she chest and just smiled a little before shaking her head. Did he really think she would get bored that fast? 

   "Two week...ok, so I just need to last a week and a day to prove you wrong. I think I can handle it. See you at lunch time."

Stepping out of the room and letting Hal close the door and lock it Sam just looked through the window at Aaron for a long moment her arms still crossed. Finally looking to Hal she spoke.

   "So whats his deal really? I mean, I've read his file but that only tells so much. Do we know anything else on who Aaron is?"

   "I hate to break it to you buddy, but being scared is part of being human."

Dalton sits back in his chair and sips his mountain dew for a moment just thinking. It was the truth even if anyone voiced it or not.

   "I think in one form or another we all worry about the Agency and when they will come after us. As for why they can't leave you alone, its because you are a survivor. One day it will end...one day."

  "Yeah, I guess they do."

Giving a small smile Lucy looked up at Jamison and she cheeks turn a soft shade of red. Nothing like making herself look like an idiot in front of someone handsome. Taking her glasses from Jamison and picking up some of the other books she gives a small shake of her head.

   "I'm not sure it makes much sense either way honestly. It a course I have to take though so hopefully it will stick enough to get a passing grade and I can be done with it."

Standing and brushing her herself off she tucks the books under her arm the best she can. If it wasn't one this it was always another. She'd come to learn that in life of a college student. 

   "Thanks for the help, it means a lot. Maybe now I'll finally get around to buying a backpack."


A brother? Nate couldn't help the look of shock on his face. How did Garret know he had family? On top of that he couldn't imagen how Garret must feel. He had been ready for him to say it was someone in the Agency, even someone he was watching because he thought they were but part of his family threw Nate for a loop.

As Garret gets up abruptly Nate sat up a little straighter and was a little shocked Laura had stepped out in front of him. Not that Nate though he would hurt her, but it was still a pretty daring thing to do. 

When Garret sits down again Nate's look held compassion. He could never pretend how this must feel but if he was to guess it would be pretty horrible and his heart ached.

   "Garret, I am so sorry. That has to be a hard thing to deal with and honestly I don't know what all to say because I've never been in that situation."

Nate was silent once again for a moment looking to Laura and than back to Garret. He really did feel helpless on this one and his heart hurt.

   "Have you thought about contacting them? I know you are pretty upset with your parents and you have every right to be, but maybe if you were to talk to your brother and sister, that could be nice."
