"Heeeeeeeeeeey, Cole."

At that, he started out of his "trance" and snapped back to the present. To his left was the ever pretty Meifeng Vuhong, one of his classmates from the Academy from days gone by. After they'd graduated he'd gone his own way from the "popular" clique, and even in school he hadn't socialised with them much. They only needed him for his data crunching powers, and not much else. 

"H- hey Meifeng."

"Didn't expect to see you here. Haven't seen your ass in years, how you doing?"

"I..."

How [b]had[/b] he been doing? Should he tell her about his dead end job in Haven? That he was working for a woman who could turn into smoke? That his closest friend was an adrenaline junkie who could manipulate his own bones? That his days were spent making coffee and warming up food in a microwave? 

"I've been fine, Meifeng. Haven't seen you in a while too. How've you been?"
