Marielle and Alexandria {Lore Dump}
{Most of this is unorganized lore that is mostly not proofread at all}
Marielle [Rook] and Alexandria [Sugarboo] have known each other since elementary school, but only became friends after both of them started high school.
Marielle began talking to Alexandria in her sophomore year when they shared two classes together (geography and art)
Marielle would have you fooled and believe that she is all cool and calm, but in reality, she was just as energetic as Alexandria, maybe even more.
They would soon start hanging out together outside of school, the two of them finding any excuse to be together when they could. They shared many interests such as musical theater, makeup, hair, and the romance books that they would stash at the back of their lockers for whenever they had any downtime during the school day.
Marii would slowly realize her feelings for Alex after a year of knowing each other. She would deny it, under the impression that Alex was interested in a guy in her own grade, and actually interested in men only.
She didn't bury the feelings; she just set them aside, opting to focus on becoming a lawyer instead of fantasizing about being in a perfect world where Alex did like her back and that she could grow up and build her career around marine biology instead.
She'd nod off in class and dream of jellyfish, sea turtles, and cool sunny days at the beach, just diving into the water to get a peek at all the fish and crabs; often waking up to the school bell ringing and having to rush to her next class because she made the mistake of resting for just 15 minutes.
On calm nights, when the sky was clear and the streets were quiet, she'd drive out to the pier and look out into the horizon. She'd sit on the bench there and write; write about her life, her feelings, her goals, and her fears of the future.
She'd express how she feared that Alex would grow away from her once they graduated, how she feared not being able to pursue her dreams and goals, and how she feared that she'd one day be stuck in an office job as some low-rate lawyer who had nothing to show for herself when people asked if she had become a marine biologist like she said she would in high school.
Sometimes she would drive into the deeper parts of the city, looking for just one place that was still open at 2 am in the morning. She'd find a small convenience store and decide to go in just to look around since she had never really gone into the city before.
Looking around proved later on to be one of the best decisions she had ever made in her life because she had just found her soon-to-be favorite snack. It felt dramatic to her the first time she ate it (after paying for it, of course); it wasn't some fancy pastry, but instead an asian snack that she remembered hating when she was a child.
She'd buy ten more bags of the snack and finally head home, parking her car and sneaking through the window of her attic, where inside she had made a smooth path through the clutter and Christmas trees for a quieter trip down into her room.
She wouldn't get caught that night or the night after or even for another 2 years.
