Luca did as the doctored ordered and went to the mess hall for a bite to eat to get the vitamins he needed for the day. The more he walked the more detached from his surrounding he became. One second he was standing before the replicator and the next he was sitting alone at a table in the far corner of the mess hall with a chicken salad, a bowl of blackberries and strawberries and an iced tea before him. As if finally realizing where he was he took a look around at the half empty mess and then down at his food. Sighing to himself he began to eat.
Lost. That's how he felt. He'd come upon the ship alone and even though he'd reunited with his friends and made a few new ones as well he was still quite alone. And to almost have his young life snatched right from beneath his fingers. He would never get over that. He knew he should feel something. He'd almost died hadn't he. You weren't supposed to bounce right back from that with no feelings at all, but he felt numb; like a stranger looking down at his life from a distance. He wasn't attached anymore, but was just going through the motions.
Popping a baby carrot into his mouth, he leaned his elbow down onto the table looking bored and chewed, listening to the irritating crunch the carrot made between his teeth.
What now? Luca hazel brown gaze danced around the room and for the first time in a very long time he didn't feel like socializing or smiling or doing too much of anything.
He just was and the uncertainty that plagued him scared him more than he cared to realize.
What was next? Did he really want to know anymore?
Tag: Anyone who'd care to chat and perhaps pull Luca out of this bottomless pit. >_< -cough-
