[Fortunately, Nate likes history. Recent history somewhat less so, particularly when it comes with baggage this heavy. He leans against the table and watches Nick talk, the tension so thick he could cut it with a knife.
The Maketh Nate knew - if sparingly - was intent on maintaining order, ensuring that rules were followed no matter the cost. So she regressed, then, or fell back in with an ease none of them might have anticipated.
Or maybe it should have been obvious from the start. It isn't Nate's business to reason why when the important thing is that they nip this kind of stuff in the bud in the future.]
...this doesn't sound like it's got a particularly happy ending.
