Waiting Up-Nick's Turn

Disclaimer: Pixar owns them.
Scott was the one who used to wait for Thunderhead (also called Nick).
Now Nick was waiting up for Scott.
Nick was use to waiting. He had waited for a permanent home that never came while he was in foster care. He waited for the school day to end so he could escape the abuse of his teachers.
It would probably be a long wait, it probably would be years and years of waiting. At least that's what Nick hoped.
Just because his cape had snagged on a missile didn't mean Scott should be denied a long and happy life.
