Slow Ride

[Maksym Gould]

Maks felt like he had spent almost his entire drive watching the horse trailer he was pulling. The horses were restless it felt like, and he could feel every step and twitch they made okjn their small confines. Despite having stopped several times and letting each horse stretch their legs out, Homer specifically, would not stop moving around. Although he loved his children dearly, and the horses, he always hated trailering them. It was Wila's trailer and she liked to drive them. He preferred letting the stable trailer the horses, not that he was a bad driver, they just made him nervous.

His spirits rose as he pulled up to the school grounds, happy to finally be able to let the horses out. Luckily, Lysander had slept the whole way and was still tired, so he let the lab sleep while he hopped out of the truck. Looked at his phone before going in the door and sighed. Of course it was dead.

Maks shook his head as he walked in the door and smiled as he approached the desk. "Hello," he chimed. "I'm Maksym Gould."

Fitz looked up as he heard the door close and watched a man approach the desk and introduced himself. He gave a welcoming smile. "Welcome to Blue Ridge Academy, Maksym." He said as he typed in the name and brought up the information. "You will be residing in suite one, twenty-two of the Brown Ribbon Apartments, which are here." He took a map from a tray on his desk and pointed to the location of the apartment building, which was just across the parking area from the building they were in.

He then fished the apartment keys from the drawer under his desk and placed them with the campus map and another sheet of paper marked with the areas the man's dog could accompany him. "Is there anything else I can help you with?"

The little thrill he felt moving into a new place had come fully fledged, just as it had when he moved into his first house. He nodded with a smile at the greeting and listened carefully. Maks had been awful with his first visit here, going to different buildings but not remembering a thing so he knew that map would be a blessing for him.

Maks smiled apologetically for a moment. "Actually, is there anyway you could get a hold of my daughter for me? My phone is completely dead and I need her to come help with her horse." Judging by the time of day, he knew she would be in her room, plus the last message she sent was that she was waiting for him anyway.

Fitz pursed his lips together as he wondered of a way of tracking the girl down and then nodded as he took his phone out and sent a message to both Andie and Gwen, as there was a high chance that the girl was either around the barn or in her House, or at least Andie should have some idea of where the girl was, the woman seemed to be on top of everything that was happening around campus. "She's on her way." He said as he got a return message from the head of Blue House.
