It isn't easy finding love

[Brigid Cassidy]

FIONA'S
5:00 A.M.

:: Brigid walked in early after a restless sleep to check in. The others were still out, which was something she'd worry about later. She was greeted by the sight of Nara sitting bedraggled on the couch, zoning out to an infomercial on the TV ::

[Nara McKenna]

Nara's boots and leather jacket were tossed aside somewhere behind the couch. A small attempt of being comfortable when she came home. Her only friend was the TV and the beer in the fridge since she kicked the band out. Ethan kept texting and calling her to see if she was okay, but they were left unanswered.

The random jaunt through Chicago really didn't help to clear her muddied head. So she had decided to numb the pain ...

Even still, she heard the door open and sniffed the air, recognizing Brigid instantly. She was the first one to come home.

[Brigid Cassidy]

:: She gave the Garou a dubious look, then cleared her throat ::

"Good morning."

[Nara McKenna]

"Morning," she grunted. "Left the guinness for you."

[Brigid Cassidy]

"Thanks."

:: She made a bee-line for the kitchen, stomach growling ::

[Nara McKenna]

Nara took a moment to spy Brigid over her shoulder and frowned before looking back at the TV.

[Brigid Cassidy]

:: Brigid turned to peek back half a beat later, and whistled a G-n-R tune as she tossed some taquitos in the toaster oven ::

[Nara McKenna]

Nara's stomach growled. Nothing but beer all night, her body was beginning to protest, but she felt lazy and didn't want to get up.

"Mind making me one ..." She muttered.

[Brigid Cassidy]

"They're cookin." she replied, before finding the tune again.

[Nara McKenna]

" 'Kay..." She found the strength to get to her feet and wandered over in a daze towards the kitchen. Leaning against the wall, she crossed her arms and waited.

[Brigid Cassidy]

:: Brigid turned to look Nara in the eye as she whistled. She wondered if she'd pick up on the tune or not. Either way, the Garou was welcome here no matter what. She was honor bound to that ::

[Nara McKenna]

Unconsciously, Nara's foot fell in time with Brigid's whistling. It was just out of habit considering her talent for music. It oddly sounded familiar put she couldn't quite place where she had heard the tune from.

[Brigid Cassidy]

:: She began half singing to herself unconsiously, mouthing the words as it played in her head. Then she served Nara and poured herself some coffee ::

[Nara McKenna]

Nara's ears perked up as she started the recognize the lyrics. Brigid missed a few words but the Garou was able to fill in the rest ...

Sit here on the stairs
'Cause I'd rather be alone
If I can't have you right now, I'll wait dear
Sometimes, I get so tense
But I can't speed up the time
But you know, love, there's one more thing to consider

She looked down at the coffee and then to the Immortal. "What're you doin'? And don't saying making me breakfast."

[Brigid Cassidy]

:: She whistled a bit before answering ::

* ... you and I'll just use a little patience ... *

"Look, I'm sorry things got heavy. Being friends is cool."

:: She took a bite of food and smiled as she chewed ::

[Nara McKenna]

She fell silent, dwelling on what Brigid said. The Garou winced at the friends line but that was what she wanted.

"I'm sorry too."

At least that is what she thought would be best.

[Brigid Cassidy]

:: She nodded, switching gears a bit ::

"Where's the gang?"

[Nara McKenna]

Her cheeks blushed and then she coughed. "I kicked them out..."

She followed quickly with a sip of coffee.

[Brigid Cassidy]

:: Brigid laughed and shook her head at Nara ::

"You're too much."

:: She took a taquito and tossed it down to the cat ::

[Nara McKenna]

Her cheeks remained a rosy color. "Yeah." She grabbed a taquito and her coffee and headed back to her spot on the couch.
