Sammy was, quite possibly for the first time in months, awake early in a good mood. Coffee was an enhancement rather than a crutch this morning. Her first successful dinner with Qamar had brought up something she hadn't paid much attention to over the summer. She was registered for the fall semester but she hadn't finalized her schedule.

It had to be done. To that end, she was at her favorite coffee shop with her laptop to enjoy the morning and double check her schedule. Funny enough, she was looking forward to going back. The summer off had been just what she needed to give her a boost and refocus her goals.

Just as she asked the waitress for another cup and a second muffin, her cell phone vibrated in pocket. The display was an unfamiliar number. Ordinarily she would have ignored it, but it could be from Mikel at a different number.

She waited for the waitress to leave before answering. "Hello?"

	Therese laughed. "I doubt it. I'm pretty impatient myself. I think it's all him." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Well, he's getting older. That could be it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	ng_zodiac 2009-08-04 10:26 am UTC (link)
	Therese smiled. "That could very well be it. I hear age can do that to a person." She sipped her coffee some more. "How's Qamar?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Her cup of coffee became the most interesting thing in the world at that moment. Sammy looked down into the murky liquid when she felt her face grow a little warm. "He's fine. Busy with school." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"So what's up with you two? Are you dating, or is this a casual thing?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sammyfury 2009-08-04 10:41 am UTC (link)
	She continued to investigate her coffee for signs of life. "Not a lot of guys want to date Col. Fury's little girl and her Glock. Qamar seems to be willing to date Sam Fury. And her Glock. I like him." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	ng_zodiac 2009-08-04 10:42 am UTC (link)
	So it wasn't serious and not worth using the guy against her. "I wish you the best of luck with that. He seems like a really nice guy." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sammyfury 2009-08-04 10:48 am UTC (link)
	"He is." Sammy lifted her face to look at Therese. "Mikel gets any bright idea to pull a Big Brother act, and I'll have to shoot him in the leg." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	ng_zodiac 2009-08-04 10:49 am UTC (link)
	Therese blinked and then chuckled. "I'll pass it on. I rather like him unventilated." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sammyfury 2009-08-04 10:55 am UTC (link)
	"It's just the leg. It'll heal." She half smiled. "Though I'm sure Qamar can handle it. He told Dad he was being paranoid." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	ng_zodiac 2009-08-04 10:59 am UTC (link)
	"Still, I'd like him unventilated." She drained the last of her coffee. "I can understand being paranoid when it comes to someone like your father. He knows everything that's going on." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"You know Mikel better than I do. What are the chances that he'll come around and see Dad? Maybe have dinner with us like a family?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"My best guess? Probably zero to none right now. Who knows what the future will hold." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"A precog, but I don't know any." She smiled. "Mikel will get tired of poking fun at me for wanting to take over S.H.I.E.L.D. and he'll disappear again. This will all have been a dream. Except for the postcard. I was serious when I told him to send me one. I haven't got it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	ng_zodiac 2009-08-05 05:16 am UTC (link)
	"I don't know any either," she said. "I don't think that will happen. He talks about you once and awhile. I don't think he'll just disappear now." Oh yes Mikel talked about his sister. Mostly how she's key to his plans. "He sent one, but international mail is horribly slow." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"I have a good friend who has little sister. They're both friends, really." Sammy rubbed her forehead. "They fuss and argue a lot, call each other silly names, but you know by watching them that this is what the brother/sister relationship is supposed to be. Crazy pranks and sabotaged dates, and knowing somebody is always on your side no matter what. Growing up was good with just me, Mom and Dad, but a part of me couldn't help being jealous of what Misha and Anya have."

	"It seems like it would be natural thing to want something like that when you grew up knowing you had a brother but didn't know him." Therese shrugged. She didn't know how siblings were supposed to act. She was an only child. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sammyfury 2009-08-05 06:06 am UTC (link)
	Right. Brother's girlfriend does not need to hear about Sammy's issues. "So what's next? You can tell me a good lie if you can't tell me the truth." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I'm not sure. Have to see what's in the works." Oh if you only knew. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sammyfury 2009-08-05 06:23 am UTC (link)
	She nods. "Another coffee?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	ng_zodiac 2009-08-05 06:24 am UTC (link)
	"Mikel probably has things lined up and he just hasn't told us yet. It's usually how it is. Sure. Thanks." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sammyfury 2009-08-05 06:39 am UTC (link)
	"That is Nick Fury behavior, but I wouldn't point it out to him. Well, I would, but you probably shouldn't." Sammy caught the eye of a passing waitress and requested refills. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
