Skyler walked in first, "We came by and brought you a gift."

Followed by Hunter, who said, "By 'gift ', she means alcohol."

        Then lastly, it was Finn.

        Skyler replied, "The gift, of alcohol."

       Skyler found a spot and sat down, "So we can let all of these stress relieve."

May said, "Let's go outside."

As May and Hunter walked outside, Finn and Skyler stood up. Finn held his stomach.

Skyler took a sip of her liquor and asked, "You 'kay?"

Finn replied, "Ahh, just a little, I don't know, a little pain after the crash. I should be okay in short."

Skyler shook her head and said, "I don't know. I doesn't even feel real..." She took another sip.

Finn shook his head, "I mean look at my car and look at us. "

Skyler nodded at him in agreement.

Then they walked outside.

Outside of May's house, May and Hunter are already having their conversation. Finn and Skyler saw May standing next to the table which held May's mom's sword.

When Hunter saw Skyler, he stood up and walked towards her as Finn walked to May and sat down with her.

Finn and May are having their conversation, so is Hunter and Skyler.

Hunter asked, "How you doing, Sky?"

Skyler moved her eyes away from May, who ran her hand across Finn's stomach to grab his camera.

Skyler looked sad, and she's thinking...

She said, "We used to talk... Remember that?"

Hunter looked at her with confusion, "What do you mean?"

"I saw what you did at the accident."

Hunter moved his hand softly to the right, and the car's door popped open.

Hunter looked at her right in the eyes, "Just drop it okay, Bae? You don't know what you're talking about."

"Just tell me already, because I-can't-do-this anymore!"

Just then, across the room, they heard May saying, "Hunter does, don't you Hunter?"

        They both looked at each other again, and Hunter explained, "I know things haven't been the same since the accident-"

"But," Skyler interrupted, " I felt like you have been keeping this from me ever since we met. All I really wanted from you was to know you, to really know you."

Hunter shook his head as saying that you don't know anything...

Skyler continued, "I want to experience the bad, the good and everything else with you."

Hunter replied, "You don't know how bad things can get... I don't want to hurt you, I just... I need you to trust me..."

"What if I can't."

Again, across the room, May stood up and said, "So Skyler gets to dress how she wants and hang all over guys in public, but when I do it it's weird?!"

"May," Finn stood up, he tried to smile, "This isn't you."

"Isn't it?" She looked at Finn, "I see ya', I see all of you. But none of you have ever seen me!"

        The four friends all looked at each other.

        "GET OUT! GET OUT OF MY HOUSE!" May yelled in a husky but high-pitched voice that can only come from a demon.
