Las Vegas, Monday morning

Upset over what had happened between Johnny and Savannah, Isabel hadn't slept well the night before. Around seven she gave up trying to sleep and decided to get up and start the day.
Since she didn't have any easy solutions to the situation, Isabel decided to go for the Nolan method of coping in a difficult situation and cook breakfast.
And coffee. Lots and lots of coffee.

Coffee seemed like a good start and maybe she would even start to form complete sentences.

Date: 2012-06-04 05:54 pm (UTC)"No killing," Isabel said as she set a platter of french toast on the table. "Maiming is a possibility though."
"Coffee's on the table. Come in. Eat."

Date: 2012-06-04 06:00 pm (UTC)"No getting into trouble," she said softly.
Which, coming from Savannah was an odd thing indeed.
"We had a fight before I left on the case... but we made up. At least, I thought we had. We were going to talk and he was going to finally pick a date ..." Her smile wobbled and she tried to hide it behind her coffee cup.

Date: 2012-06-04 06:14 pm (UTC)"You were coming home to pick a date and instead you walked in and yeah....what an asshole." Coffee in hand, Isabel slid into her seat at the table. "I'm sorry you had to see that."

Date: 2012-06-04 06:18 pm (UTC)Savannah bit her lip.
"We've had worse fights ... I don't know what led to him ..."
She couldn't even say the word.
"He wanted me to quit my job with the interspecies council and just be his girl. That's what he said when I asked him what I was if he was a super hero. He said his girl."

Date: 2012-06-04 06:44 pm (UTC)She looked down, swirling the coffee in her cup. "He didn't like the risks of my job sometimes and when I told him I didn't like not knowing if he was going to be okay on his job, he said that's what he does." She lifted her shoulders a little in a shrug. "I tried to make compromises. I worked part time for the council and Lucas and I worked part time as an art instructor for some of the kids the Fantastic Four knew."

Date: 2012-06-04 07:15 pm (UTC)There was pain in her voice as she said that. "Last night was the first time I've taken off the ring since graduation."

"He doesn't deserve you," he said.

Date: 2012-06-04 09:06 pm (UTC)"No. He doesn't," Isabel agreed. "I guess it's better you found out now, then later on. But it still sucks."
no subject
Date: 2012-06-04 09:26 pm (UTC)She shook her head and then took a drink of her coffee.
"You know he'll call you guys looking for me, right? He'll call you and then Ange."
He wouldn't call Sean or Eve until it looked like she was really missing because he wouldn't want to tell them why she had run.

"You should call your mom though. And Sean. Let them know where you are."
