For Elodie - (Elodieâs House)
The lights were turned off, leaving only the candles on the cake for light.
Elodie sat at the table, looking at it. The small flames flickered slightly, moving when someone shifted nearby.
Maury stood close by. Christophe leaned back in his chair. Gregory stood next to Elodie.
For once, Elodie wasnât doing anything. She wasnât fixing things or getting up or checking on anyone. She just stayed where she was.
She looked excited.
Not in a quiet way either. It was obvious.
She smiled, a little too much to hide.
Without really thinking about it, she reached over and took Gregoryâs hand.
It didnât seem like something she meant to do. She just did it.
Gregory didnât react much. He let her hold it, like it wasnât something worth pointing out.
No one said anything.
Elodie kept looking at the candles.
After a moment, she leaned forward and blew them out.
The room went dark for a second before the lights came back on.
By then, she had already let go. âââ§ââââââ Its March 28th which means its my beloved OC Elodie's Birthday!!! Augh I love her sooo much I've been having so much fun with her character. Happy birth Elodie Shaw :D
