     As Hadley wakes up she can tell that Tyler hadn't left, she can still smell his sandalwood and patchouli cologne, but she can't feel his weight anymore. Opening her eyes she sees clothing strown around the room, and hears the shower being turned off. Rolling over, she pulls the covers over her body, and snuggles into her pillow. The door to the bathroom opens as Tyler walks out in the same pair of jeans as last night, toweling at his dirty blonde hair. 

     He makes his way to the bed, and sits next to her leaning to kiss her, their lips meet in a slow battle, as he snakes his arms around her and forces her to sit up. He just barely pulls back to rest his forehead against hers "I'll see you out there?" 

     "You know, it." She says as she lies back. Tyler stands from his spot grabbing hit boots and undershirt, sparing once glance in her direction before he's gone. 

     Once the doors shut she releases a deep sigh. Mind reeling. What the hell was she thinking? Sleeping with someone like him? He's clearly not the type to settle down, and she's the exact opposite. After ten minutes of beating herself up she finally gets out of bed, grabbing at a pair of light wash jean shorts, her combat boots and a band tee. She hops in the shower and within thirty minutes she's ready for whatever life feels like throwing at her. Walking out the door she sees Tyler's hat lying on the ground from when she threw it off last night. In a impulsive and questionable decision she throws it on and leaves her room. 

     "Kate!"  She yells seeing her friend walking towards the diner. The slightly older woman turns to wait for her, and does a double take seeing a certain some ones hat on her head. "Mornin', how was your night?"

     Kate shakes her head smiling at her. "Uneventful, but based off of the hat you're wearing, I'd say yours went otherwise?" 

     Hadley can't stop the blush from coating her cheeks, as she glances down. "It was quite the night, but that's all your gettin' I don't kiss and tell,"

     She locks arms with Kate and they make their way into the diner, spotting Javi, Scott and some older man. Walking over to the table she notices that as they get closer the conversation grows tight and quiet. 

     "When do you guys wanna head out?" Kate asks the group, not acknowledging the older man. 

     Javi nods in the mans direction "Kate, Hadley, This is Marshall Riggs, We've been working together he's one of the Storm PAR investors I told y'all about." 

     The older man turns to them with what looks like a condescending smile "How scary was that tornado two days ago?" 

     Kate answers before Hadley can say something rude "Not at all." Scott is staring lasers into them as scoffs at her words and Hadley is this close to pouring his drink over his head. 

     "Listen could you guys give us a couple minutes to finish up here? Maybe grab something to eat? Then we can head out," Javi asked.

     Hadley didn't need to be told otherwise and walked over to the counter to order a serving of fries to go. Kate follows after her glancing back at the odd meeting. After retrieving her fries they abandon the diner and walk towards the same area as two days prior to check conditions. 

    They could both hear footsteps as someone came up behind them. Tyler. "Well, nothings coming out of that one."

     "That one?" Kate questions "No, no. It's clearly moving into a stable environment."
