When Nate couldn’t find Keys, he retreated back to his room, texting Rhia and telling her to come over - little context given, just a to the point text: come here, door’s open. He knew that when she saw it, when she had a chance, she’d oblige, and her certainly wasn’t going to attend any classes he was supposed to in the afternoon. He sprawled on his couch, waiting for her to show up, not even bothering to do anything that he usually did while he spent time alone - playing his guitar, reading, even listening to music. He sulked, looking up to the ceiling and replaying every single word the officers had said to him, trying to figure out what they could possibly use against him next time. 

Finnegan was waiting in Nate’s dorm room for him to get ready for the convocation dinner, the boy taking a surprisingly long time. Their mother hadn’t been able to get off work, and Liam and Melly both didn’t come, nor did Finnegan or Nate want them too, and while Nate would’ve been perfectly happy skipping all of the events (especially Father’s Day brunch....truly, what was a father?), Finnegan had been dispatched to attend with him, especially considering she would be enrolling as a freshman next year. When she heard a knock at the door, Finnegan hollered out to her brother that someone was there, but she got no response from where he was locked in the bathroom, doing who knows what, so Finnegan just bounded up to answer the door, seeing a pretty girl on the other side when she opened it. “Hi!” she greeted, bubbly in the way Finny always was. “Were you looking for Nate? I swear, he’s taking longer on his hair than I do.”
