It's been a long day, but to be fair most days are long for Sally. Between getting up extra early to stop by the shop and start up coffee for the guys and bring them bagels ( because if left to their own devices they'd eat donuts every morning), going to school, and going to the shop after school...she wears herself thin. But she likes doing these things every day and wouldn't have it any other way.

Coffee has become a staple in her life and her diet. Sometimes she drinks coffee for dinner, which she can hear Colby fussing about in the back of her head every time. Still. There are very few hours in each day to do everything she needs to do and still have time for homework.

As is quite usual for her she is sitting at her favorite coffee shop around the corner from the shop tonight. It's a pleasant evening so she has grabbed a table outside and has all of her work spread across it. She's on her second cup of coffee and struggling to stay interested in her homework. It's not easy. Math bores her terribly. But she's trying to get it all done and do it well, because she made a promise to Colby that she'd be a good girl and do well in school.

So she's here. Trying. She kind of hopes someone will come by and give her a good excuse to be distracted, but truthfully she doesn't have a lot of friends. At least not many her own age. She's a bit quiet at school. Unfortunately this means little social life and little hope in having a valid distraction.

Alan just wants to sit down for a few minutes. It's a busy hour for the coffee shop; he can't find a seat inside, and as he heads out, cup in hand, and searches, the outside tables look just as full. He frowns down at his coffee, then out at the tables.

He could just go. But he has an hour and a half before his late class. It's not even going to take half that time to get to campus.

He doesn't know Sally, not really. But he's kind of seen her, in that way there is with people who live in the same area. He kind of remembers her from high school, before he graduated last year. He's dropped his car off at the shop before, saw her in the area. She's his sister's age, and his senses scream fellow demon when he looks at her. That's enough to make him head for her table, when he tries to figure out who might let him steal a chair for a bit.

"Hey, um," he starts uncertainly as he hovers in front of the empty chair. Strangers isn't really Alan's strongest point. "Would you mind me sitting here? There's no tables open."
