You and Edward had met a few times in the office, mostly when Mr. Stone called them in to work on things together. You didn't notice anything remarkable about him at all, really. He was a coworker and nothing more.

Edward saw you as annoying, constantly talking when you could be working, making small errors, doing having to do overtime to get it right, making simple equations long and unnecessary. He found it stupid how someone could mess up so many times and keep their job.

However, he didn't know you took the same train as him, and as you both wait huddled under the same shelter in the station, far past the time anyones around, he can't help but think about who you really are.

He glances, taking in the slight nod of your head as music blasts into your ears, the silence your capable of.
