"Yeah, but she ran into a friend," Chuck says, shrugging. She's been acting weird anyway, and he doesn't think it has anything to do with Beth being his ex. Hell, he's barely even talked about that. It was such a long time ago, and so short-lived, and they're friends now. No, whatever is going on, he has a feeling it's more because of what happened at the end of October with that awful fucking movie, what he saw that night and what he said. He should've kept his goddamn mouth shut.

He doesn't want to dwell on that now, though. It won't do any good. "It's fine, I can text her, let her know where I am."
