No idea where this one came from
Little almost drabble thingamabob. ... yeah, I've NO idea.
Nick stares for a long time, uncomprehending. She keeps right on talking. He still doesn’t understand. It’s all very frustrating because he knows he’s smart. Heck, he’s got like 5 big-ass grants proving that other people think he’s smart. But her? He just doesn’t get it.
“You haven't been listening to a single word I’ve said, have you?” she accuses.
Nick shrugs helplessly. “I ….”
“Yeah, fine, whatever. I’m done banging my head against your stupid thick skull.” She stalks out like an offended cat.
He sighs, cradling his head in his hands, staring blankly at the papers in front of him. He’ll never understand.
