"I'm kinda upset that he's leaving," Skylar sighed.

"Kind of is an understatement," Amelia laughed. Sky shrugged, pushing her dark, curly hair away from her face, and looked sadly back at the Computer Science teacher. He glanced up briefly, as if to see who was looking at him, then glanced back down at his computer.

"Bye, Mr. C," Amelia called half heartedly.

"Oh yeah, bye..." he said quietly, almost to himself.

"Hey, Melia!" Sky half shouted into the phone.

"Skylar..." she groaned back.

"You're the one who told me to wake you up," Sky answered, "Downstairs in seventeen minutes!" She hung up and glanced around the cafe. It was moderately empty and there was only a couple people around.

When Amelia came down Sky was drinking the same coffee she did every morning and glaring at her laptop screen. It was split in two. One was her lab report and the other was a story. She had nothing for either of them. Sky was about to shut her computer when a message popped up in her airdrop box.

PC22: Hello, Ms. Rader

She glanced around the almost empty coffee shop, but before she could find the subject in question, Amelia sat down next to her, fixing her already perfect light, brown hair.

"So what are we doing on this wonderfully rainy Saturday morning?" she asked sarcastically, sipping her coffee and glaring at the rain through the window.

"Finding PC22," Sky declared, showing her the message. She grinned and looked around. Pretty much everyone in the cafe had their nose in a book, but as soon as Sky's eyes landed on a certain someone, she knew it was him.

"M..." she sighed. Amelia's hazel eyes followed Sky's brown ones and a smile grew on her face.

"So it begins," Amelia smirked.

Fandomchick221B: I can see you, dickbag

The blonde looked over at Sky, his eyebrow raised. He got up from his seat on the other side of the room and sat across from Amelia and Sky, asking, "Is that any way to greet an old teacher?"

Sky shrugged indifferently, her expression icy, and Amelia smiled, "It's nice to see you, Mr. Calix." Sky scowled at him and slouched back in her chair.

"She mad at me?" he asked, nodding at Sky.

"Yeah, long story..." she sighed, glancing down at her watch.

"Go on, tell him," Sky taunted, glowering at the man across from her.

"Well then... it's kind of for two reasons. Number one, she's pissed that you left. Has been since the last day you were there. Number two, she saw that you threw out what we gave you... and well I guess that speaks for itself."

His gaze softened and he confessed, "I threw it out... everything out, because it reminded me of here. I didn't want to remember any of it when I left, but somehow that letter you guys wrote slipped past my radar. After six years of going to track nationals and seeing these students I'd had enough of it and came back to start teaching there... still am actually. Don't be mad, actually you had a very important role in the way my life went."

"Sadly you were important in ours," Sky said a minute later. Amelia smirked and stuck out her hand.

"Yeah, yeah..." Sky admitted. She scrambled around in her bag to find a ziplock full of quarters, which she dumped on the table. Percy looked at them and raised an eyebrow in question.
