Chapter Four
Hours later, Sara woke to the sound and smell of breakfast being cooked. Pulling the blanket around her shoulders, she made her way into the kitchen to find Catherine, still dressed in a pair of striped pajama pants and a tank top, standing in front of the stove.
"Morning, sleepyhead." She greeted without even turning around.
"What time is it?" Sara asked, rubbing her eyes.
"Almost one. You slept for a good eight hours. French toast?"
"Uh, Cath? Why are you making breakfast in the afternoon?" Sara wasn't quite awake enough to manage her common sense.
Catherine stifled a laugh. "Not sure, just felt like French toast when I woke up. There's coffee brewing, too. It's almost done if you wanna grab some cups?"
They ate in a comfortable silence until Sara put her fork down and looked up.
"Um, listen, I'm sorry about last night. I wasn't thinking clearly when I pulled into your driveway…"
"Sara, it's all right. You know my door is always open for you. Day or night." Catherine smiled. Sure they had had their differences in the past but she was over it and knew Sara was, too. Well, almost… but that's Sara for you.
Sara returned the smiled and picked up her fork again. "You wanna go for a run?" She changed the subject.
"Sure, let me just change real fast." Catherine replied.
"Take your time, I have to run house and get some clothes, too."
"You can borrow mine. I have plenty."
"Really? Thanks."
"Not a problem." Catherine replied before disappearing down the hall, only to return a minute later. She tossed a pair of black athletic pants and a light pink tank top in her direction.
Ten minutes later, the two girls were standing on the sidewalk.
"Which way you want to go?" Sara asked.
"Well, the lab's only about a mile and a half that way. We can go there and back?" Catherine pointed to her right.
Sara nodded and the two took off in that direction.
