Mick frowns, he had heard something going on behind the scenes with the nerd squad, Lisa had commented that something was going on when she was ‘keeping an eye’ on Cisco and the others.
“What happened?” he asks carefully, he didn’t want to upset him or make him feel like crap about it all but he knew it usually helped to talk about things, all the shrinks he had to see when he was kid made that point clear.
“I got bored at the safe house” he shrugs “Rogues were annoying me so I needed to get out of there”
The music stopped, and Cisco’s heart started beating faster. “To my brother? He died not too long ago.” He turned his attention to the strings, running his fingers up and down them to avoid eye contact with the other.
“Keep playing” Mick huffs out slightly annoyed that he had stopped, he knew music is probably going to help calm the Latino down a bit but he shouldn’t keep any of the feelings he had bottled up because it would make everything worse when it did blow up.
“Loss is hard, whether or not you got on doesn’t matter”
Cisco’s fingers quickly found the fingerpicking pattern for the song once more, and he let out a sigh. He was silent as he watched his fingers brush across the strings. His mind was racing, there was so many ways he could’ve saved his brother, but he didn’t. Cisco reflected on what the other had just said, and he knew he needed to go on. For Dante.
