Room 217, Monday Afternoon/Evening

[walks_two_paths]

After classes, Savannah retreated to the comfort and relaxation of her room.

The weekend had been exhausting.

She had been happy to see Benicio, but there were times she was wound way too tight waiting to see what he was going to say or do. After all, he wasn't known for not making his views and wishes known.

She changed into a pair of leggings and a t-shirt she had "borrowed" from Johnny before dropping down on the bed with her notebook and Destiny.

The talk with Benicio on Saturday night had given her a great deal to think about.

She picked at the blanket, then looked at him. "Sean?" She ventured softly.

At that? He ran a hand over his face.

"Not good enough."

"Then I don't know," she said softly. "Sena and I are working on my powers... and Sean is working on his."

She swallowed. "I know that except in cases of invasion, I'm safe here... but..." She dropped her head.

"I don't know what to say to make you feel better," she admitted. "I could say that I would agree to a bodyguard next year if it made you feel better... but I don't know if I could stick to that."

Johnny stared at her. He might have to contact Benicio after all.

This situation sucked any which way you looked at it, and it was pissing him off because he wasn't sure how to fix it, or how to make it at least tolerable.

"What do you want me to say, Johnny? It's not like I can leave school when you do because I don't know if I'll be safe with you gone."

"I don't know, Savannah," he sighed. "My head's reeling here."

And this is what she had been dreading all weekend.

She drew her knees up to her chin. "I'm sorry," she whispered.

"Don't be sorry. It's just... alot, okay? I'm going to head out for a bit, clear my head." He stood, headed for the door.

"Okay," she said quietly, burying her face in her knees.

Johnny left, closing the door quietly behind him.

Savannah winced when she heard the door close behind him, and bit down on her lip had to keep the tears in her eyes from falling.
