safety in numbers, she always tells herself, peering at the strangers around her and then back to the one in front of her, whose intentions she knows are FAR from pure. they are like anyone else her sister has complained of, and even if they are different, it’s only an ACT. especially someone like them, with a HISTORY such as their own. and yet, here she is, l a u g h i n g at something they’ve said and hoping to god her sister is busy working and not noticing the affection she allows if even just for a moment. lilac is guilty, of course, for letting herself give in to it --- for letting herself have fun. but she can’t help the innocent giggles that cascade from her. ❝ i can’t believe you came in here at a time like this, ❞ she manages ( whispering just enough for the other to hear her ). ❝ my sister will have my head if she sees me talking to you. she says that i’m just another one of your flings. ❞
