The airport floor was cold against his back. Richard stretched, feeling the stiffness of travel even before he had arrived. His uncle's retirement party was tonight, and the anticipation of all the festivities felt like a physical burden. He had been looking forward to the trip, but now, the idea of having to be social... he really couldn't.

He propped his head up on his hands. He could call. He could say he wasn't feeling well. He could… avoid all the people. The thought made a smile slowly creep across his face.

He stayed where he was, watching the other travelers rush past. The world seemed to move too quickly. He, on the other hand, was content to simply remain.
