a sigh. her nurses shoes died. at least this pair did. the problem was that she didn’t have any other shoes and still had to walk home. so she sighed again and began walking down the street in her socks. that was until she stepped in water and her socks were wet. taking off her socks bo continued on her way home. there were a few shouts but the blonde tried to ignore them. all she needed to do was get home and then she would be fine, the walk home however seemed to take forever today though.

Bryce spotted the woman on the side of the road, looking rather fed up and well, bare foot. Pulling over he got out of his car and approached her, “Hey- are you okay? You don’t look lost but you look pretty fed up- has it been a day?”

Woody’s eyes squinted a bit as he heard his friends words, head shaking slowly. “I swear you have some of the oddest sayings.” He replied, unable to stop the small laugh that passed his lips. His phone dinged and he looked down in time to see another response from his brother. “I’m alright. Just have some family stuff going on with my brother. Just trying to make sure he’s okay.” 

"Odd but charming right? One of a kind, which is what I am.” Bryce commented with a small wink, though his face became more serious when the other started to talk about his brother. “Want to talk about it, you know I’m all ears whenever you need me, bud.”

Woody took a moment to break, knowing that there were enough people out on patrol that he didn’t need to be there for a few minutes. Sitting at one of the tables towards the back, his eyes looking over the screen of his phone. His brother was having one of those days where he couldn’t stop thinking of their parents, and Woody was realizing how hard it was going to be not being able to get to his brother when he needed him. He hadn’t noticed that someone sat across from him until a little after they had. “If you need the table I’ll be up in a minute. Just… Breaking.” 

“I mean I know my ego can be a little big at times but I don’t think it needs a whole table.” Bryce commented with a small smile, observing his friend and not noticing the expression on his face, “Is everything okay, you look- well look like someone who isn’t at a town wide event and instead are watching someone eat the last of their favourite pie that they’ve been saving for a week.”
