The day has finally come where James and some of the team left for Greece. Everyone gathers in front of the building while Austin and Alice load the bags into the cab. Leland says goodbye to everyone while James and Hennessy are by themselves.
James holds Hennessy's arms while he tries to look into her eyes. She kept looking down. She wasn't sad or worried about him leaving but change never came lightly especially coming from such a bad past.
They wave bye and everyone goes back inside.
Hennessy stands and watches for a few more seconds then she hears
"Hey chic whatcha doing tonight?" It was Rhiannon and Nina
Hennessy turns around "Um nothing probably. Why what's up?"
Nina looks at Rhiannon. Both giggling Nina asks "We were thinking either a sleepover or the club."
"Well i don't kno-" before she could even respond Nina and Rhiannon both yell "come onnnn it'll be fun"
Hennessy laughs and agrees. "Maybe just a sleepover. I can only imagine everyone will be at the club tonight."
"Oh true true. Well we will get dinner then go to my apartment!" Rhiannon says
Hennessy walks into the building and heads to James' office. She wondered what she would do with him gone for three weeks.
She gets there and it's dead silent. There was an unsettling feeling of missing. After so many years of living in fear then being happy when Mike left; Hennessy started to feel a sense of relief. She couldn't remember the last time she was without a man to live her life for her. She was going to make the most out of this time alone.
