It always felt good for Emilia to help out people, even if it was just doing something as simple as bringing them a coffee. It sustained her. She returned the pleasantries to Jules and Kim. [color=ffff1e]"You're welcome, everyone!"[/color] she chimed as she enjoyed the warm feelings and the cool drink. Nate was thankful but a bit more incredulous that Emilia walked all the way to the meeting spot with all her gear and a couple trays of drinks. [color=AD5050][b]“You walked all the way from Colorado? Em, why didn’t you call? I could’ve come and met you and you know help you carry all that!”[/b][/color] [color=ffff1e]"It's all right, Nate! Really! It wasn't that far, it was just up the street a little bit. Gramma stopped there anyway. It would have taken longer to wait for you, so don't be silly and enjoy your coffee!"[/color] She played with him a little bit. Emilia knew her reputation at school, but in her mind Nate should win the award for nicest student at Beverly Hills High. He was always so kind, especially when Emilia was in photography club and she had no idea what she was doing, reading light meters and everything. Nate would guide her through the steps every step of the way. Such a nice boy. However, Emilia was snapped out of her self-revelry by the emergence of Sami from under the "RV". It was clear the Cuban boy had been fighting again, and he didn't do a very good job of protecting the face. She was going to take him to task, but Jules beat her to the punch regarding the punches. Nate acted to calm him down, and it was probably for the best. Even when Sami showed up on her doorstep, he never said anything about what had happened or who busted him up good. It was just usually a patch up and a pat on the back out the door. Gramma was much better at it than she was. Still, she was gonna say something. [color=ffff1e]"Seriously, Sami? Gramma made me promise literally one thing on this trip, and that was to make sure you didn't get busted up. At least I can say this happened beforehand..."[/color] She made a motion as if to reach for the first-aid kit in her bag, but it looked like the ice pack was going to do well enough, so she held off. Nate was ready to go, and it looked like the other Misfits were following suit. Emilia looked around, trying to make sure everyone in their group was here. At least the ones she knew about. Mandy told her she was traveling with the other group, but there was still another person missing. [color=ffff1e]"So, is Umbra coming on this trip? I thought she was, so I got her a large orange soda. If she's not coming, I'll drink it. It's totally fine. But it's gonna be flat."[/color] It's almost as if she was rambling on to help Nate change the subject, especially since she didn't want to think about what the implications of a stolen ride would mean.
