– NATE –
For all the time that has passed since he’d last been in the bookstore, nothing had changed. No, that’s not quite right. Something has changed, something imperceptible that Nate can’t quite put his finger on, not until he sits, actually gets a moment to focus.
It’s Sam. Sam has changed, in some way that is, much like the store itself, deeply familiar and utterly alien. A hand reaches out to pull the offered cup close, Nate turning this développement over and over in his mind. ”It makes it feel normal, huh?” He laughs, not wanting to tip his hand, though it isn’t as if he hold anything.
”I’ve been... busy.” Nate laughs, and takes a sip of his tea, the memory of its flavour accompanying the smell that wafts towards him when he does. ”Turns out being crazy for half a season leaves a lot of work behind. And there’s the Governor shit, and... it’s been a time.” Bicoloured eyes lock on Sam, Nate’s brows furrowed like he’s trying to piece together a puzzle, trying to figure out where everything fits between them. Trying to avoid the big red button that seems to look over every conversation they have. ”How are you?”
