After a long week at work Zach felt like he’d earned a night out. He didn’t think one night out with one of his work friends would be too much to ask for until he was waiting outside the club and got a text that his friend couldn’t make it. He sighed and was ready to leave when he stopped and shook his head, he’d already come out, he was getting a drink. Heading in he glanced around, this was only his second time out in the city that never sleeps, but he was starting to understand the name.After taking in the sight of the people, adjusting to the lights and sound and spotted the bar. He started making his way over when he saw a familiar figure with their back to him. It couldn’t be who he thought it was, that was impossible. But the closer he got the more he was positive it was them. He stopped, probably looking like he’d seen a ghost before calling out, “Sunny?” He had never wanted to be wrong more in all his life as he stood there waiting to see if the woman who turned around was the one he still considered the love of his life. The woman he had been ready to marry.

Orion was a bit impatient, mostly because he was extremely hungry and the diner was busier than he’d expected. He was bouncing his foot with a sigh, glancing around one more time to check if their waitress was on her way with the chocolate shake he’d ordered. But she wasn’t in sight and he turned back around to his little sister, resigned. “Okay, tell me everything. Because I’ve barely heard from you and it’s weird. Is everything okay? Are you eating? Do I have to call Mom? You know she’ll sing Candle in the Wind on the phone while Dad plays mandolin if I so much as say the word. They’ll try and heal you through song and you don’t want to be stuck on that call- it’s usually at least three hours long. Mine was, anyways.” He perked up immediately when the waitress cae over with their drinks. “Thank you!” He said, taking it and stabbing the straw into the large shake, taking a quick sip. “But I miss you! How’s everythin’ going, kiddo?” He asked his youngest sibling. He always needed a good reconnect with Sunny and Berry every now and then.
