The idea of this collection of stories is to delve a little into what the characters may have been thinking in some of our favorite SSD moments. Each chapter is a different moment and isn't in any particular order. They'll be super short, but let me know what you think.
I don't own SSD. I wish I did. That would be awesome.
Shane's look of worry was evident immediately as she placed her hand at her neck where her necklace was supposed to be. Oliver attempted to reassure her that they would find it. He may not have known the full story behind the necklace, but he knew how important it was to her. He'd never seen her without it.
Just as Oliver was about to coordinate the search, Jordan approached rather unexpectedly. Oliver got that distinctly annoyed feeling in the pit of his stomach again. He wasn't a fan of this guy.
"Did you lose something?" Jordan asked.
Oliver needed to help despite Jordan's arrival. Shane was getting distressed, so he turned his attention to the task at hand. "Yes. Ms. McInerney misplaced her necklace. It's a small...gold disc with a purple...crystal bead."
Oliver found himself pausing slightly as he described the necklace he had seen her wear so many times, and his extremely accurate description caused Shane to pause and find his eyes for just a moment. She couldn't help but be surprised at his knowledge and the look she threw him suggested so.
Oliver could do nothing in that moment but nod slightly - almost imperceptibly. Of course he knew what the necklace looked like. He knew almost every inch of her. It was just as much a part of her as her beautiful smile or her flowing blonde hair. This was one of those small moments that passed between them often. One that suggested that they knew each other on a much deeper level than either was ready to admit fully. That would have to wait for another day.
