<span style="font-family:Handlee">"You'll be here soon, won't you? Dad make steaks and I am starving!" Luke's strained voice echoed over the line, causing Faye to laugh and give a small shake of her head, even though she knew no one could see. <br/>
<br/>
"Yes, I'll be there soon. You know you guys don't have to wait for me, though. I didn't think I was gonna be here this late, but-"<br/>
<br/>
"We can't have Sunday dinner without you, Faye. That's just not how it works." Luke laughed, though she knew that humor would be short lived if she took much longer. "Michael, dad and I are waiting. See you soon?"<br/>
<br/>
"Yes, I promise. Now go, you're making me later than I need to be." Faye blew a kiss through the phone's speaker, listened for her brother's laugh, and then removed the phone from her ear. She called one last 'bye' into it before hanging up, shoving the phone into the back pocket of her khaki's. "Damn, he made me lose count." With a light groan, she gathered the money from the counter and started counting again, separating them into piles of a hundred. After counting out the drawer and getting the deposit sorted, she bumped the drawer with her hip and it slammed shut. Sealing the deposit envelope, she grabbed her purse from under the counter and tucked the money safely inside. The bank drop box wasn't far, but people had been robbed for less. <br/>
<br/>
After finishing the rest of the closing procedures, she grabbed her jacket and pulled it on over her black and grey sweater. Throwing her purse over her shoulder, she locked up on her way out and started for the main doors that led out of the mall. There were very few cars in the parking lot at this time of night, but that wasn't surprising. Who wanted to sit in a closed malls parking lot? Still, she kept her eyes peeled as she started across the lot towards the bank, glad she didn't need a car to get there. Keeping her eyes open as she crossed the lot, she hopped across the street and into the parking lot of the bank within just a few short minutes. It didn't take her long to drop the deposit, then all she had to do was double back, find her car in the nearly empty lot, and go home for dinner.<br/>
<br/>
Well, even though she didn't live there anymore, it still felt like home. She had been born and raised there, after all. She'd only just moved out a year or so ago. Luke still lived there, and worked with their dad at his mechanic shop. Michael, the oldest brother, had moved out at eighteen and gone into the wonderful world of computers. He was definitely the brains of the family. Smiling a little at the thought of her family, she almost didn't notice the temperature drop in the air. Shivering slightly despite her jacket, she found her car key on her keyring. <br/>
<br/>
Approaching her little Toyota, she started to stick the key in the lock but dropped the ring entirely. "Shit." Kneeling down, she grabbed her keys, just as he purse fell down her shoulder, spilling its entire contents on the ground. Groaning, she tossed her keys to the side in favor of grabbing a lipstick that was rolling away from her. "Oh, my god, this is <i>not</i> my night..."</span>
