Maybe grocery shopping in twenty degree weather wasn't the best idea Linda had ever come up with.

Utah had hot summers and colder winters. She'd never had an affinity for the heat, Michigan and all, but it wasn't like Brighton was cold all year around. Sure, they'd have hot spells, but nothing like Utah.

She missed it, and it didn't take her long to realize she did.

Her friends, Bon's, Brighton as a whole really. There definitely was a part of the place she certainly didn't find herself reminiscing over though. Linda never really liked to think about that. She'd been gone for close to a year now and she wasn't going back.

Well, maybe, but that was a big maybe.

And, luckily enough, she had Susan with her! Linda didn't have the slightest idea as to why–or how–Susan had gotten all the way down to Hurricane so quickly. And so silently too, she didn't even know she'd been coming, there wasn't even a phone call! Opening the door to a cheekily smiling Susan wasn't something she saw herself doing on a Monday night.

Seeing as Susan had nowhere to stay Linda had actually let the woman stay with her for her stay. However long that stay would be, Susan still hadn't told her. She'd have to go back eventually, she had a job for crying out loud!

But Susan definitely was a help. A leech too, she couldn't go two days without nagging Linda for something or the other.

"Y'know there's nothing in this fridge, right?"

That's what she'd told her before dragging her all the way to the grocery store. But, even with all of it, Linda still found herself smiling.

She found herself smiling with a smile that lasted.

It quickly faded when Susan held up a box of some cereal with marshmallows in it.

"I am not buying that Susan..."

"Why? It's marshmallows, who doesn't like marshmallows? Come on...you wouldn't do that to me, wouldja'?"

"I would, actually."

"'Course you would, yeah."
