Caleb nodded and smiled, his eyes were still a bit shiny but no more tears were falling down his face "Yep." he said simply, fiddling with a small napkin on the table. He glanced at his watch and sighed quietly "So, when do you want to go for that run?" he knew he had to keep things as normal as possible -- it was heart breaking but, he couldn't do anything to change the way Zach thought, nor could he change the way he, himself, felt toward Zach...

It was possible to, him at least, be able to follow Zach from location to location and still work full-time - Traveling nurses were a hot commodity these days, and he only had another year left before graduation, so... He had to hold onto what little hope he had. If the flirting and stuff were any indication, he knew that Zach wasn't as straight as he claimed to be, but Caleb wasn't ready to put his heart out there either... He'd let it play out, watch the scene unfold like he so often did when watching Zach on TV.

And besides, he also knew that the college he went too offered online courses for nursing, he just needed a hospital in order to complete his rotation hours, and there were hospitals in literally every corner of the country he could do them at.
