I wonder who she's learning that from.

Really?

You're right. That was rude.

Maybe she misses you and wants you to stick around some more.

Gansey, seriously. Are we doing this right now?

I'm not doing anything, I'm just offering up a reason for her behavior. She's always been very attached to you, Ronan. Adam had to feed her the other day because she was squawking like a crazy raven.

I take her with me when I can. She likes being here with Noah. Tell Parrish it won't happen again. Would you like some fucking Midol with that dish of guilt?

[He wants to tell Ronan that Noah hasn't been around as much since he's been away more too, but he doesn't want to get called out for even more guilting] That wasn't my intention. I'm letting you know what's been going on here.

Should we call the kids home and have a proper family meeting?

Everyone's here, if you'd like to.

What the fuck do you want from me, huh Dick?

[Gansey sighs, closing his eyes] Don't call me that, please. You know how much I hate it.

We just miss you around here, Ronan. That's all. [He puts his hands up in surrender] It's alright.

I'm here! You see me right, I'm right fucking here.

You're right, you're here and I shouldn't be talking about this anymore. Do you want to grab some food, or something? We can go to Nino's. Jane is working right now and Adam is here. We can go together. I bet Noah will even come.

Sure, Nino's. Oh, goody, Jane is there. I'm fucking thrilled. Let's go.

I really don't know why you dislike her so much. She likes you, you know. [And Ronan doesn't make that easy. Despite how he's been with her, Blue has always at least tried] I understood because of Adam, but now... [He shrugs, going to the main room to rile up the rest of them. Noah, of course, is all smiles when he sees the two of them and Adam just waves]

Gansey, don't lie, you're bad at it.

She doesn't dislike you, Ronan. [But he knows talking about it probably wont make much difference. Ronan does what he does either way] We're going to Nino's. All of us. {he states as he heads for the door]

The fuck she doesn't. I know exactly what those women think of me. [Ronan grabs Gansey's keys to the Pig and tosses them to his friend.] I don't have my car. You're driving. I'm not getting in Adam's Honda.

[Adam doesn't protest much because he isn't sure his Honda could hold all of them anyway, without breaking down.

Gansey catches the keys, raising his eyebrows as he heads over to the Pig and waits for everyone to get in] Where... is your car?

Left it on the side of the road. Don't ask.

[His eyebrow stays up very high, but he says nothing more about it, glad when Noah pipes up to change the subject. He's worried, though, because Ronan doesn't just leave his car around. He's worried because he knows it's Kavinsky]

I'm buying today. [He announces as he gets out of the car and heads inside before Adam can protest]

[Ronan puts on a hoodie and picks up Chainsaw on his way to the door.]

Don't have a coronary, Parrish.

You'll eat most of it anyway. [Adam says as he shrugs, following Gansey inside.

They sit at their usual booth and Gansey gives Blue a charming smile, lifting his hand in a small wave. He hopes Adam doesn't think much of it]

I've been mapping more of the ley line. I figured we could take a look while we're all here. [As he says this, he sees a car pull into Nino's lot that looks suspiciously like Ronan's BMW and he swears under his breath]

[Ronan is very quiet on the way to Nino's and once they are seated. There is no witty come back for what Adam says about his eating. And when Gansey mentions the ley line he's staring at the ceiling.

But he hears the familiar hum of his car. Ronan sits up and turns so he can peek out of the cheap blinds. Fuck. There is it. His car. And Kavinsky behind the wheel.] Fuuuuuuuck. [Ronan groaned.] I'll be right back.

[Sliding out of the booth he headed outside toward his car.]

[Kavinsky is still hung over, drunk all over again, the bottle of vodka between his legs. He went by Monmouth first, but no one was there, so he figured this might be the next best place. He's scared, he knows he probably fucked up beyond repair. Again. But he knows he has to say something. He has to do something.

He gets out of the car, ready to head inside when he sees Ronan already coming out] Shit. [he slurs drunkenly, then plants a smirk on his face when Ronan approaches him] Hey, princess. Miss me?
