Blinking and straightening her posture, Madeline turned slowly to face the figure that approached her. She reached up pushing her glasses back up her nose, and waited for the world to come back into focus.<br/><br/>"Hey...umm..." she moaned wearily. Moments later, a smile began to creep its way across her face. "Is that...Jake?" As she spoke her eyes grew wide and her smile broadened. Slowly she stood up, bringing her face within inches of his own. "Jake!"<br/><br/>Pulling back to a comfortable distance and inhaling sharply, she pelted him with questions excitedly "What happened? How have you been? What's it been like, two years? Are you gonna be back for good?"<br/><br/>By now it was readily apparent that she was rather pleased at seeing him regardless of what people might have though of him. At this point most of her friends seemed to have lost interest anyway, returning to their usual routines. Just seeing him brought back so many wonder memories. Honestly, despite having quite a few friends of her own, Jake seemed to be the only person that was as passionate about Virus suits as much she was.<br/><br/>Certainly most people had a basic grasp of the technology, it was necessary to make it in the modern world. But few apart from Jake seemed to appreciate the intricacies that made it so fascinating.
