SEEING HER FATHER off, Ellie pulled him in for a hug at the front gates.
"Please be careful." She mumbled as he held her tightly.
"I will." He assured her, putting a gentle hand on the side of her face. "Tell AJ Ill be back. And..."
"I will. I love you dad." The Dixon girl pulled the gate open as he revved his new bike.
"Love you too, El." He rode off, Aaron following after in the car they brought back.
Eugene pulled a device from his bag as Noah held a gun towards him.
"Oh, no thank you." The mullet wearing man shook his head.
Nicolas walked by. "Just take it." He spoke harshly, still annoyed with the group from their fry run scrap.
"Come on, you gotta protect yourself." Noah tried again, a gentler tone coming from him.

"No reason." Tara put her hands on her hips, hoping to look nonchalant. Ellie snorted a laugh.
"Mm-hmm." Noah turned away, walking past Maggie carefully. Tara scoffed, smacking Ellie's knee before turning back to Noah.
"It's in innocent question." She grabbed the boys shoulders teasingly. "Don't make me hurt you."
"Careful with that, kid. You could hurt yourself." Nicolas walked by Ellie, tried to show her the correct way to load a magazine, only to slip and spill the bullets around.
