So the Past huh?

["Low-key" Lyesmith]

Seth sat in the main office cracking his knuckles. He was on his fourth cup this morning so in other words a very slow morning. Between Carina and Tyler and Varina there wasn’t much for him to do actually and the admins job was so very brain numbingly dull. He knew he probably leave well enough alone but she was part of the pack. And he supposed they needed that closure. So, he pulled out his phone sighing several times dialed the number that was on Selenes file for Shaydra. Texting quickly ‘ hey lets meet for coffee. There is a Caribou near the school thirty minutes?’ Closing his phones screen he immediately regretted sending the text. He could pretend she was just a concerned mother for at least a few more weeks.

Shaydra was actually out running around some, getting a few things done. Her mind was on so much right now she almost missed her phone notifying her of the text. A light breath as she'd just stopped the car and went to look at the text, blinking a moment when she realized it was from Seth and exhaled a bit. Well it seemed they were gonna get to talk after all. So she moved to replay, "Sure sounds like a plan see you shortly." Closing her own phone she went to head back off towards the school.

Seth made it to the Caribou coffee in all too soon a fashion. He had walked slowly and even wasted time arguing the merits of each of the two pair of jeans he owned. Arriving he settled into his usual table though he hadn’t brought his laptop so he got his usual and settled in for a few rounds of facebook pool. He wasn’t sure what he could say without maybe getting his teeth kicked in but fear never got anyone but afraid.

After how it had gone with Low-key or rather didn't the day they took Selene to the school for the first time. She'd known the two of them were gonna need to talk, hopefully if she explained to him it might help. Man all of this was all screwed up thanks to her dick of a brother and his ability to lure his big sister with a fucking lie of all things. That letter, which she had to let him read had made her blood run cold and her anger to sore, it was just ashame the asshole was already dead. Cause she'd of surely killed him for this and than some.

Shaking her head as she drove towards the school, her mind on how this might possible go and hoped for the latter more than anything. Exhaling a little glad that Hiero had taken Selene, since she doubted this was going to stay neutral without some kind of fuss between the two of them. Low-key was a stubborn young man and Shaydra well she had a temper, but she'd like to think the two of them were capable of talking without it coming to a head with words that shouldn't be said or tempers flairing more than they needed.

As she pulled the mustang into the parking lot for the school she turned her off and took a few more breaths. Trying to organize her thoughts for when she talked to him and moved to get out. Locking up her baby she headed inside, just wearing some dark-wash jeans, dark blue baby doll style top, her leather coat and her black boots. Shay never did wear make-up and her hair was loose, as dark eyes moved towards the Caribou well more looking for him first. Spotting him at a table and made her way over. "Hey there."

Seth looked towards the door as she walked in. He waited looking down as she approached as it was his turn to shoot in the game he closed his screen. It was an expensive hundred coin game. "Hey," he said meeting her eyes quickly looking away. She'd grown stronger in her time away.

"You want coffee? First?"

As she approached him, her shields were locked up like always, but knew he'd still feel a hint. But hoped to not overwhelm him knowing how he and Skye had always been around alphas. Exhaling some as he closed his item and finally looked up to her and she gave him a light smile. Catching the question and gave a soft nod, motioning to the seat across from him. Not wishing to assume right now. "Yes please and do you mind?" Hoping this wasn't going to be all tense the whole time, but would wait and see, play it mostly by ear she supposed.

["Low-key" Lyesmith]

Seth composed his retort and composed and recomposed yet when he felt her redoubling her shields he scraped all of the smart retorts he had mentally prepared. So, he met her half way taking out a twenty he slid it to her. He’d buy but not fly.

Once she got back with her drink of choice he said "So how as Tahititi?" The reference was nerdy chic and he hoped she got it but wouldn’t go on a limb to verify.

Everything, the body language how he was reacting said a mouthful to Shaydra, and she hated how it seemed they were almost back to when they'd first met. Releasing a soft breath, seeing the money sliding over and went to go get herself a coffee and hopefully figure this out better. Coming back a few minutes later with a double, low-fat, mocha latte and nearly spit it out at his sudden words. Instead she sat down and arched a brow, setting down the cup. Reached into her pocket and slid the note over towards him. The one from her dick of a brother. "Read it since your under the impression I just up and left cause I wanted too." Standing back up she stepped back outside needing some air and of him and Hiero she'd really, really hoped Seth would of been more happy to see her. Standing out on the side walk exhaling a little before taking a sip of her coffee.

["Low-key" Lyesmith]

"Nah," he said as she slid the previously crumpled letter to him. This wasn't about any mitigating factors. No reason was sound enough. Her, Donavonn, Tasha, Guy, and even Skye had left him. He at times felt he deserved it. But only when wanted to kick himself a little. No one deserved to be left.

Even knowing that he didn't actually hold a grudge. He was angry sure but only bevause he feared letting her close enough. If he did she would be able to hurt him even accidentally. He was sure she had her reason for leaving before but the truth was it didn't matter. Trying to explain that would probably cause a fight so he wouldn't try.

As she returned the letter still sat unread. It was sign enough he hoped. She had to know unless she gave him an order he wouldn't read it. Didn't want to know why she left, didn't want to go down that road.

He was selfishly here for him. "Look don't take this wrong please. But I don't want to read anything or be told anything about why you left. Because it would mean you made a decision that I wasn't worth the fight. And if I read it then I might agree that I wasn't worth it either and that...thats just fucked up. I am worth it at least to me. So, uh if you are okay with it..." He offered his hand "My name is Seth Lyesmith, my friends call me Low-key. I understand you are joining the pack and the school where I work."

It took a few minutes before she came back in and her eyes zeroed in on the letter and she mentally growled a little. Before holding up her hand as he started to talk. "No I'm sick of everyone thinking that I just up and left because I no longer carried about anyone that was far from the truth. Our so called damn Ulfric lied and manipulated his sister into thinking he was in serious trouble and needed help. Want to know the truth. There is its and the fact he knew before we left I was pregnant and said nothing. He did this to hurt Hiero, the pack, me as well and worse of all he worked with Xander. That attack with Skye was his doing, how else did that other pack know our every move. So no I didn't leave any of you cause I didn't give a damn its because my own blood used me."

The look in her eyes was clear she was hurting from this, the fact it was her own brother, her own blood had done this made it all the more worse. He'd cost everyone so much and every where she turned it was just another slap in her face at the whole situation. So she stood since she'd held him off on his own words wanting to get this out she was tired of everyone thinking she just left and didn't care about them. As if. How they could believe she didn't care and love them was beyond her.
