🦅💝💌Set before and during the computer lab scene; AU in that Hawk sets his sights on Melissa Pearson and goes after her. Mostly inspired by the Guns N' Roses song Patience (which is quite inspiring in a way).

Three thirty in the morning Not a soul in sight The city's lookin' like a ghost town On a moonless summer night Raindrops on the windshield There's a storm moving in He's headin' back from somewhere That he never should have been And the thunder rolls And the thunder rolls
Every light is burnin' In a house across town She's pacin' by the telephone In her faded flannel gown Askin' for a miracle Hopin' she's not right Prayin' it's the weather That has kept him out all night And the thunder rolls And the thunder rolls
~Garth Brooks, The Thunder Rolls
Pushing open the doors of the computer lab, Hawk walked inside, calling out, "Melissss-aaaa! I know you're in here! Figured you'd be hiding in the computer lab, my dear girl!"
Hearing his voice, Melissa closed her eyes and waited until his footsteps had passed by her and she was positively sure the coast was clear. After she'd opened her eyes, she lifted her head up and peeked through a window in the dark room where the lights were off; through the glass, she saw him look through the window of one locked door and pull at the knob before hearing him say, "I'm coming for you!" and going to another door. Her heart beating so fast she thought it would snap off from whatever was holding it in place, she then got to her feet, taking some quiet, deep breaths in an attempt to calm herself down.
But, as she mentally prepared herself to leave the empty classroom, she suddenly felt a cold chill run down her spine while simultaneously getting that well-known feeling that she wasn't alone.
Someone has slipped into in the computer lab and is here with me. And I have a pretty good idea of who it could be too..
