Her sleep pattern had left a lot to be desired over the past few days, after tossing and turning for a few hours - when she noticed the first bit of sunlight creep through the curtains, she decided to give up on trying to go back to sleep. Figuring the best way to make sure she didn’t disturb anyone else was to not be in the house, she changed into her running gear - grabbed her phone, headphones and keys and made her way as quietly out of the house as she could.
It was meant to be a quick run, one to kill some time - but every time she gave herself an end goal, she decided to push a little further. The ‘quick run’ morphing into one that lasted an hour, when she did eventually decide to call it quits. Opening the front door quietly considering it was still early, she walked towards the kitchen - jumping when she spotted someone out of the corner of her eye, hand flying to her mouth to muffle any noise made in surprise. “Sorry. Thought everyone would still be asleep.” She offered meekly, before she ran the words through in her mind again. She couldn’t remember being told Lexie was working that morning, and while logic says she could have just forgotten being told that information - Louise’s mind jumped to the idea that being awake so early must have meant something wasn’t right. “Are you okay?”
