[b] Meghan and Hazel - The Pub - Cody[/b] The smell of the food faded as Hazel trekked to Cody's Room. She contemplated what would happen if Cody decided to stay. If this guy was legit... then he could be a lot of help. However, if he was rotten, then he could take Hazel and Meghan out with a twitch of his finger. [i]No, stop that, Hazel Lawrence![/i] She shouted at herself. This guy looked genuine; he couldn't have been all that dangerous, anyway... he was maybe a year or two older than she and Meghan. She ascended the stairs, as Meghan had sad that he was on the second floor. She saw him walking in the hall, and gave him a small smile. "Hey- uh... Dinner's ready, you're welcome to come whenever you're ready... [b] Abram - Haywood - Daniel/Emma/O'Connor/Brianna/Jess [/b] Abram gave a small smile when he saw Emma down the slope. He caught the girl as she jumped on him, and returned her enthusiastic hug. "How ya doin', E.j.?" He set her back on the ground, but his ears perked up as Emma seemed to recognize. One thing was certain in Abram's mind; he had [i]not[/i] expected that... Abram looked at Daniel, and then at Emma... then it hit him like a tsunami tide. He'd seen Emma from his old apartment. He couldn't remember who her face had reminded her, and she looked a lot different than she use to, so Abram didn't register her face... but now he knew who she reminded him of: Daniel. Their faces bore many similar shapes; their noses, the creasing of their eyes, their lips... Abram had watched Emma Crowe go into the catacombs, and he'd done [i]nothing[/i] but watch. He'd done that every time Tyler's men brought in new girls; he'd watched. He could have at least tried help one of them escape... Emma would have been the perfect one... He cursed himself silently... He had been a coward.
