If there were any luck in the world, Chivason would have been sound asleep by now. He'd had a wonderful dinner — courtesy of sweet, old Mrs. Jann — and he'd eaten enough to be pleasantly drowsy, and then some. To cap it all off, she'd offered him a bed (a bed) and tucked him in as only a grandmother could. He didn't really have much to worry about, still having a few valuables tucked away in his knapsack, enough to cover a few weeks even if she decided to change her mind about letting him stay free-of-charge, and he certainly hadn't been here long enough to need to think about moving on.
Whatever the reason, though, he stayed in bed long enough to need to roll over half a dozen times before he finally gave up. Carefully tucking the blanket back under the pillow, he snagged his knapsack and tiptoed outside. He let his mind drift as he walked, hoping it would help him relax enough to actually sleep. He had liked his last stop, even gone so far as to make a few friends. He should have known better than to try helping Lia find her necklace. She was too excited when she asked him if he would walk with her. He scoffed softly at himself— then tripped, tried to catch himself, and faceplanted in the dirt.⋅⋅ ⌊ ☆ ⌉ ⋅⋅

Stepping onto the bus, though, he wasn't quite sure how much avoiding the rain was helping that. A weird, almost-achy feeling rested itself in his bones and he felt a little sick to his stomach. Great. It could have been worse, but getting sick was never a pleasant experience. Folding up his umbrella and stuffing it an outer pocket of his bag, he stood near the front while scanning the seats someplace he could settle down without having to worry about bumping shoulders or elbows with anyone else.
A familiar redhead caught his attention. Sefton opened his mouth, then simply shut it with a small, resigned sigh. He may have gotten away from the police the week previously, but it looked like he would never truly get away from Chivy. Decision made, he resolutely made his way to the back of the bus and plopped down next to Chivy without greeting him. It looked like the kid was trying to take a nap for the ride, anyway.
