Second time

As Gunner's tying his shoes, he suddenly gets a strange feeling, not hearing Bree respond right away. Glancing up, he sees her turn and sit down, staring at a blank television. He blinks in confusion, wondering what on earth... her stammering response makes him even more confused.

Standing up, he slings his shirt over his shoulder and wanders over to where she's sitting, still clueless as to what had happened, and eases down next to her. "You... won't eat anybody out of house and home by eating breakfast," he reasons.

Cocking his head, he studies Bree's red face. "You alright?"


Kip is a little startled - usually no one approached him in this area of town. Straightening just as little, he turns his eyes to see the pretty young woman. Shaking his head a little, he waves off the water. "No... thanks though." He'd been stupid to run as hard as he had, but that's what he usually ended up doing when he was frustrated or upset. It kept him from lashing out at his friends.

Sinking down to sit on the curb, his pulse still raced, his breathing still heavy as his lungs tried to provide enough air. As sweaty as he was, he knew he needed to get moving again before he got cold, but he just needed another minute or two.

"No, I need more than a bottle of water," he comments ruefully. "Appreciate the thought though. Most people would rather watch me from a block away and call 911 if they saw me pass out."


Ty stops and turns to the strange pickup, lifting his eyebrows. Looking through the window at the young woman, he's ready to turn her offer down. He didn't usually accept offers for rides.... but come on.... she hardly looked dangerous. And he really didn't want to walk all the way back home.

Sighing, he nods. "Thanks... not much for walking today."

Getting his bike put in the back, he then slides in the passenger side. "Just taking me a few blocks is going to help. I wasn't planning on walking today." He rolls his eyes in disgust, turning his arm so he could get a better look at his long scrape. "Didn't plan on this either. That's the second time someone's pushed me off the road."
