It was just her luck that not only one but two other people would show up here. On any normal day, she wouldnât have seen people out here, but it just so happened to be theyâd show up when she was half naked, soaked to the skin, and to top it all off, she could tell her makeup was smeared. Bless whoever built this cabin and didnât decide to include one single mirror in the entire place. She didnât mind being half naked, that wasnât the problem. She was more than used to walking around half dressed, but what bothered her was that she looked like a drowned rat and could do nothing to against it. Dammit, this was why she usually brought makeup around with her. People didnât need to see her without makeup. She was a vampire for Christâs sake, she looked like a corpse without any of it on. At least this place wasnât lit exceptionally well, maybe the dim lights would at least mask some of what she was hiding beneath all of that makeup.Â
But for now, she couldnât really do anything about it. She was stuck here with these two until the rain passed over. She just hoped she wouldnât be stuck here all night. She shrugged her shoulders over the darker haired femaleâs question, thinking nothing of her having seen her disrobing. âHuh? No, itâs fine. Iâm not what youâd call modest when it comes to undressing. Besides, itâs nothing you donât personally have.â And just like clockwork, a blonde showed up seconds later. She really couldnât understand how everyone seemed to be finding their way to this one cabin. âGeez, is the entire student population going to show up? If Iâd have known, Iâd have brought drinks.â She began to tie up her hair mid-sentence, ringing out what dampness was let before twisting her hair up into a bun to ensure that at least one article of clothing was left dry.
âYouâre awfully positive for someone that got caught out in the rain.â She said in response to the blonde who had just suggested she remove her clothing as well. Bare feet carried her over to the tiny excuse for a kitchen counter, hands lifting herself up to sit on the ever so slightly dust covered surface. âItâs not much of a cabin, but if you can get a fire going, you could probably get those clothes dry in a few hours.â Because of course, Hyolyn wouldnât be even attempting to light a fire anytime soon. She wasnât stupid, she wasnât going to accidentally light herself on fire and burst into flames in front of these two. Those thoughts aside, she gestured over to the fireplace some distance away. âI found some dry wood on the porch if one of you ladies would like to start her up.â
The female cared less, which Zoe found slightly surprising though she didnât make her expression show as she lowered her gaze as if to study her own female figure too. Ah, right. She had it. Of course, she possessed the same anatomy, but it was also to keep the otherâs privacy. Well, guess it was safe to come in seeing her naked then. So she shrugged and stepped inside the shanty, and made way for Seungie to come in with a smile, whispering a reply, âI think you know her.â
With both of the females soaking wet while Zoe remained dry, the guilt came running up to her in waves making her rub the back of her neck before sitting in one corner in silence. If she didnât disturb the pixies, this would not have happened. It made her sigh, wondering how to make amends without getting caught. At first she observed the two, but little by little Zoe was getting slightly uncomfortable of the scene. Naked bodies. Oh. Naked bodies. Something she wasnât used to, and perhaps never will. Â The conversation between the two carried on as the pixie tried to ignore the slight bothersome sight by drawing random things on the ground to keep her busy at the moment. Those two had certainly gorgeous figures, but Zoe couldnât look at them and she didnât exactly know why. That made her sigh again.
Listening to the following conversation, Zoe lifted her chin up at the said suggestion of the female with brows raised. âIâm sorry, but I wonât be any help for that. Â Itâs not that I donât want to, but I canât.â She had an apologetic smile on her face before sighing once more. âIâm a child of cold,â she said, without being specific, biting her lower lip. Â âIf thereâs anything I could offer, it would be to lead both of you back to the academy safely in the middle of this heavy rain. But that means you both have to bear with the coldness of the barrier I have to create. Thatâ or Seungie, do you know how to start a fire?â
Drinks actually didnât sound like a bad idea. Why hadnât someone thrown a party out here already? It was the perfect spot outside of the night guardâs view because there was no way she would travel all the way out there to find them. But on the topic of fire Seungie kind of just stared blankly at them both with a long âUhhhhâ before saying âNo not really. But it canât be that hard right? You just get some wood and some tinder. I wonder if there is lighter or something around here?â The princess stepped further into the cabin as she started to peel off her t-shirt and lay it over the back of one of the dusty chairs and go towards the tiny kitchen with barely even a workable counter. She pulled out some drawers that were mostly empty accept for some pen scribbles and etchings of dumb hearts with peopleâs initials in them. It looked like they were going to have to start this fire the old fashion way.
âWell, I guess we are going to have to wing it ladies.â Seungie sighed as she turned to the others. âZoe, why donât you grab some of the wood she was talking about and bring it in? Iâll see if I can scrounge up some paper from somewhere. There has to be an old book or something around here somewhere....â She wandered off as she began looking for something dry she could burn to get the fire started. The basics were at least common knowledge she thought, so surely between the three of them they could start a fire.
