Piper tried to look as iniquitous as possible as Dick worked his charm on the guard. It wasn't very hard considering he definitely blended into the background in comparison to the beautiful dark-haired stranger.
"Try the alarm? Maybe we'll luck out and the car is parked on this level?" Hartley suggested. In all actuality, he was going to be listening for the tell-tale chirp of the car alarm. He could only hope the implants, which had been ringing intermittently since the accident could pick up the sound. For the first time in years, Piper was having trouble differentiating sounds. It was a terrifying prospect. The idea of his implants failing now and rendering him deaf once more scared him. To lose his music? It would be a fate worse than death to the musician.
Despite having spent the majority of his life hearing, he could still remember that scary time when everything in the world was a scary surprise waiting to jump out and bite him. He hadn't been able to hear traffic or anyone coming up behind him. No, he didn't want to go back to that. Unfortunately, he wasn't sure who all could help him with the implants either.
