Caitlin Taylor waited a few moments after the apartment door closed to go back to the bedroom. She flopped down on their bed, and started thinking. She thought about all the time she spent on the phone with her parents talking about Spencer.
"Mom , you should meet him, he's so amazing. I love him so much! It's crazy!"
"I'm happy for you sweety, I really am, but you're not rushing into anything, I hope." Her mother advised her over the phone.
"I'm not, I promise! He's just amazing. I know you'd love him."
Caitlin started to get a sick feeling in her stomach. She thought about her family, who she hadn't seen in a while, and her friends, who she missed. It dawned on her then, that she was homesick. Quantico was never somewhere she wanted to move to. Hell, it wasn't a place she had ever heard of either. Living in Virginia wasn't exactly as good as she had hoped. Sure it had a few perks, one of them being nice weather, and being with Spencer.
She didn't know the city well, and hadn't made any friends, seeing that most of the people here were business workers and/or government officials. Caitlin had wondered down here one day, feeling hopeless, miserable, and completely alone. Yes, it was the day she was planning on ending her life, seeing no reason to keep going, everything felt as though it were going nowhere. She bought the cheapest and earliest flight she could get, and flew down here, figuring she'd spare her family by going somewhere else.
Yes, the only reason she moved down here was because of a cute guy with caramel colored eyes, who had a love of science and magic, asked her out on a date, and it was a smart decision, because that guy changed her life.
And that same guy didn't tell a single person that they were dating. Caitlin felt her heart tug a little. It hurt to know that someone who considered their colleagues their family, made no mention that they lived together, were dating each other, or even that the other one existed.
It didn't make sense to her. Not the slightest.

A/N: Isn't this the shortest chapter that ever existed? I know, everyone asks me to make longer chapters. But whatever event, scene, whatever, needs to happen for that part of the story, will be written, not exaggerated to fit 4 pages, but long enough, or short, to get the point across.
