Wolves Dancing With You
The school day had finally ended after lunch and two more periods and the blonde girl drove off to the diner. She watched Dustin cross the road and walk towards his house. She threw on her pink apron and picked up her towel to clean up the counter with before the diner hour hit. It could get quite busy at dinner. It was her break when someone familiar walked through the door.
"Hey Tor, can you get that, I'm kind of busy right now?" Rhonda asked from the back.
She sighed and turned around to come face to face with the guy she wouldn't mind not seeing for a few days. But he looked depressed.
"What can I get for you today?" Tori asked, faking a smile.
"What do you suggest for a broken heart?" Hunter half joked.
"A transplant?" Tori asked jokingly, taking the smile off.
"Just a water I guess."
"Coming up."
She turned around and grabbed a glass, filling it with ice and water. She grabbed a straw and slipped it into her hands, watching Rhonda balance the many plates on her arms. Tori walked over and set the glass on the counter, then grabbed her cloth and wiped up the counter.
"Do you ever feel like you don't belong?" Hunter asked as she reached closer to his place.
"All the time."
"How do you deal with it?" He asked.
"I talk to people like you." Tori half smiled.
"Oh, well, I just wanted to return your phone."
He reached into his pocket and pulled out the blue starry phone. He set it on the counter and stood up, taking one last sip of his water.
"What?" Tori asked, picking up the phone and looking at it.
"Don't think I haven't noticed you with that before, I'm not who you think I am, all high and mighty. You're a better person than anyone I know, even better than Shane and he tries you know."
Tori let out a little laugh. She was shocked to know that he knew who she was.
"So why do you care?" He asked.
"About what?"
"Me knowing, you knowing..."
"I don't know what to think, you tell me, I'm usually good at thinking for myself but I'm not myself today." Tori joked but didn't say it with happiness, she was down.
"That's a no, if you change your mind you no where to find me."
"Yeah."
"Later." He sighed.
