Who: Brendan Drake and Autumn MacDonald
What: "I wanna talk tonight."
Where: The Bean
When: Friday evening

Brendan was pretty sure he had slept a lot of the jetlag away. He was still feeling a bit upside on times and there was an underlying tiredness, but he had time to rest. When Caden decided to go visit Justin, Brendan had arranged the coffee date with Autumn that he promised her. He arrived at the coffee shop before she did and ordered and iced almond milk chai with a gluten-free bagel before finding a table in the corner near the window. He had his iPad mini out just catching up on Facebook from friends back home. He had left a good bunch of close friends back home and he knew he was going to miss them. They all understood why he had to go, though. Good friends just got that shit.

He got to Maisy's latest post, something about a party and a new dress. He was sitting there looking at it, unable to even stifle a small sigh. He would never not feel like he failed her, but it had brought a little peace for him when she gave him a hug at the airport and apologised that he had to leave because of her. That was the hardest part, when she was well and knew the destruction she caused if she decided she didn't need her meds and stopped taking them, plunging right into another episode. All he could hope was that she didn't destroy herself.
