[He keeps his hand curled tight in hers, holding her like a lifeline, even though she may be the one fading. Maybe she'll view him as an anchor to hold onto, keeping her here, and bypassing any fated deaths. Scott knows it's a pretty childish thought, but there's little else he can do and it's nice to just believe, even for a moment, that as long as he's with her, she won't fade away. She'll stay here, just because he loves her that much.

He knows it's completely childish. He knows that him being here isn't going to determine whether or not she makes it past tonight. Scott can only make sure she's not alone in any of this. That's what she wants, what the both of them know for certain at least.]


I can show you later.

[Not that Scott actually has a driver's license, but he knows how to drive and that's all that matters. Although, a little hard to teach someone how to drive when there's not even a car around these parts. Still, none of that really matters, all he cares is telling her that he'll teach her 'later,' a promise that he doesn't know he can fulfill because of what tonight signifies.

He barely glances at the pile at her desk, just wanting to keep his eyes on her.]


Wow, she gave you that? Almost feels like a love confession. [Scott laughs, grin turning watery and lopsided.] Cars-- motorcycles especially, are like people's pride and joy.
