Library [04/17]

A cheerful Bridge arrives at the library and flops into a chair behind the counter, for once sans the usual coffee and morning snack.

Chris still has a lot on his mind and, since he doesn't really want to discuss it with Wyatt, he stops by the library to look for Bridge.

Who he finds in the stacks. "Hey, dude, you too busy to talk?"

"For you, dude? Nah." Bridge says, having been pretty worried about Chris after the events of a couple days ago.

"Thanks," Chris says, glancing around to make sure no one is within earshot.

"Did you hear the fight that Wyatt and I had the other day?"

"Kind of hard to miss it," Bridge says quietly. Especially since he'd been able to tell the moment when Chris had turned back into his normal self... and had continued hitting Wyatt.

"Summer thinks I should stop worrying about something happening to my Wyatt," Chris says. "But having the memories of what those other Wyatts did..."

"Alternate timelines can be tricky," Bridge says sympathetically. "And I think Summer's kind of got a point, there."

Chris shrugs. "I have two sets of memories that involve Wyatt going nuts and pretty much trying to rule the world. It's hard not to wonder."

"So does Wyatt," Bridge points out.

"But it's my responsibility to keep that from happening again," Chris says. "I'm the only one that can stop him."

"Maybe in those other realities," Bridge says reasonably. "But that's not the case here. You're not alone, dude."

Chris nods. "Part of me knows that. But I still feel responsible."

"He's your brother," Bridge nods. "And you might be younger, but you're also kinda more level-headed than he is- don't tell him I said that! So, I mean, that's natural, I guess. But you guys also have a group of friends who are willing to look out for *both* of you. Not to mention, like I said- he's got memories of his evil self too. It's pretty much a sure bet that that scared the *hell* out of him."

That... makes a lot of sense to Chris and he nods. "I guess I need to talk to him about everything."

"That's a good place to start," Bridge agrees.

"Things are going to be awkward for a while though, I think," Chris says. "Between me and Wyatt and me and Summer."

"...What happened between you and Summer?" Bridge asks, wide-eyed. He's still kind of hoping those two would get their act together and admit they like each other, and if something happened to set them *back* a bit, well... that'd be bad.

Chris looks uncomfortable. "I don't know. Things are... just weird."

"Bad weird?"

"I don't know. I... it just feels like there is something there between us that wasn't there before," Chris says. "And I'm not sure what to do about it."

And Bridge can't help the hint of a grin as he remembers the conversation he and Chris had had a while ago, about how Chris wasn't sure Summer felt anything. "You need to make a move, dude," he encourages.

Chris shakes his head rapidly. "No, it would be a really bad idea. We're roommates and friends and that's it. I can't risk that by dragging her into my crazy life any more."

"Dude," Bridge shakes his head. "She came after you even though she didn't have powers or any sort of formal training. She killed a demon."

"Exactly. I don't want her to end up in more dangerous situations because of me," Chris says, as if Bridge just proved his point.

Bridge resists the urge to rolls his eyes. "I'm sure she's the type who's just going to sit back and let her roommate and friend, if that's all you're determined to remain, get hurt."

"If we were more than friends then she would feel even more obligated to do something stupid," Chris argues. "Besides, what if I got possessed or something again and hurt her? I'd never forgive myself!"
