*After helping a costumer Sam had returned to sorting out the order that had been delivered earlier that day. He had already separated the comics and graphic novels from the other books and was currently working his way through said books, putting sci-fi and fantasy titles in one pile, thrillers in another and so on. He should really consider hiring some help because he found the whole process tremendously boring .
He looked up when someone walked in. It took him a second to remember why the guy looked familiar but when he did he smiled and made his way to the front to greet him. “Hey hi, you’re Aiden, right? Decided to check out the store and abuse the free WiFi” Sam asked.
It was rare that Micah ever offered to help, and to say that he was dreading helping Aiden put his furniture together this morning would have been a gross understatement. Luckily, he cared about the kid enough to force himself off the couch and make his way towards his apartment, stopping to get the sandwiches, donuts, and coffee he’d promised to come with. He knew how his friend got when it came to food, and something stressful like furniture probably just exacerbated his neuroses. He let himself into the building, assuring the security that his friend was expecting him and quickly let the elevator carry him upstairs.
Micah had to admit he was jealous of where Aiden lived; it was nice, and downright swanky, compared to where Micah himself lived. When he exited the elevator, he located the right door and then knocked, letting himself in when he discovered it unlocked. Upon spotting his friend seated on the floor in front of a couple enormous boxes with instructions spread out on the floor like a fan, he had to let out a laugh. “Dude, seriously? Did you order a small country? I come bearing gifts, if you can separate yourself from learning the Swedish language for a few minutes,” he said with amusement, helping himself to a seat on the couch.
Notes: Aiden and Sunny (team rainbow) go to confront Evan and try to get her to let them help her. It doesn't go very well.
Status: completed via chatzy
Sunny rubbed her hands together nervously as she eyed the building that Darren and Evan resided in. Although, 'nervous' is too mild of a word to use to describe how the girl was feeling. She was deeply terrified about what would happen when that door opened and how Evan would react to her visitors. A part of her hoped that maybe Evan wasn't home and that this would be postponed, however, it could be postponed indefinitely and Sunny wouldn't be any calmer. She hated confrontation and the idea of being hit or killed definitely didn't appeal. However she reminded herself that if she lived to see tomorrow that at least she'd be able to say she tried to help not one, but two people she cared about. She cared about Evan, whether the girl hated her, disliked her or felt anything of any kind for her and she hated seeing what Evan's habits were doing to Darren. She exhaled slowly, looking to Aiden. "You ready for this?"
Aiden and Evan Aiden wasn't afraid of Evan, he thought she was literally all talk most of the time. What did scare her was the fact that she was pregnant and well he knew how pregnant people could get if Charity had been any indication of things. Was he ready? No, not really but it was now or never. "I'm as ready as I'm ever going to be for this. Pregnant women frighten me, this one in particular." He muttered softly. Aiden was there to make sure Sunny didn't get thrown down the stairs or murdered, nothing more. He had no intentions of actually talking to Evan since he really didn't like the girl. He just felt incredibly sorry for the broken woman that tried so hard to pretend to not care about anything. "Go ahead and knock..."
Sunny nodded her head in agreement. "I know what you mean. Well... thank you for coming along." she said with as much of a smile as she could muster in that moment. She nodded, chewing on her lip as she looked up at the door. She lifted her shaking hand to knock, pulling back once before reaching forward and rapping on the door, just loud enough to be heard through the apartment. She stepped back and wrapped her arms around herself as she waited to see if the door would even open.
Aiden and Evan Aiden gave a small nod of his head. It was now or never. He'd be lying if he said that his heart wasn't pounding a mile a minute while he waited for the door to open and when it did, he gave a little squeak at seeing the female's hair. It was cut short, just below her ears and it was tinged with orange, blonde and brunette tones. It was a hot mess that Aiden wanted nothing more than to grab Evan, take her to the bathroom and fix her hair. The scowl on the girls' face though made him realize that would be a horrible idea, even more when Evan spoke. "Darren's not fucking here, clearly, so what the fuck do you two bitches want?"
Sunny was taken aback at the sight of Evan's new hair, simply because it was... completely different from what she was used to from the girl. She recovered quickly though and shook her head a little bit, taking a breath and exhaling. "We just wanted to come and see you," she said calmly, giving a small smile. "Um... Can the three of us just sit and talk for awhile? Please?"
Aiden and Evan Evan's brow rose quite a bit when Sunny said they wanted to come and see her. Folding her arms that were covered by a sweatshirt, she narrowed her eyes at the pairing. "Yeah, how about no? The last thing I want to do is sit and chit chat with someone I despise and the other that hates me because I happened to make his little bitch of a boyfriend cry because he betrayed me. Thanks, but no thanks. So just turn the fuck around and leave. You can both come back when Darren's home and you can have a friendly little chat with him."
Sunny couldn't believe Evan was wearing a sweatshirt when it was ninety eight degrees out and she had a feeling she knew why she was. Sweatshirts in August was something that both of her sisters used to pull back when they'd self harmed that used to completely go over her head as to the reasoning behind. "I don't think you despise me," she said flatly, shrugging her shoulders as she looked her in the eye. "You despise that I'm here in New Orleans, but you don't hate me or you would have slammed the door in my face by now. Yet you continue to stand here." She pressed her lips in a thin line, glancing around before lowering her voice. "Are you using again?"
Aiden and Evan Aiden cleared his throat, stepping closer to Sunny in case Evan lunged at her. At least that way he would maybe pull Evan off Sunny. "And I'm supposed to care what you think? Take your hippie ass and your little gay friend and fuck off." Her eyes narrowed more when Sunny brought up the drugs and she just shrugged. "If I am? It's none of your god damn business. So what's the real fucking reason you're here? Might as well just say it so I can laugh in your face and then I'll slam the door in your face, or hopefully maybe even on your fingers." Aiden's lips pursed for a moment before he decided to finally say something. "We're here as two people trying to make sure that you're alright, because frankly someone apparently has to in your..delicate state. And yes, I know, so please, tone down the hostility little girl. We're not here to hurt you. We're here to help you. There is a different sweetheart, not everyone is trying to hurt you."
Sunny shrugged her shoulders again at her question. "Obviously what I think is true since you didn't deny it after I said it," she said. She was about to speak when Aiden spoke up, turning towards him as he spoke before looking back to Evan again. "is it that inconceivable that there are people in life who actually care about you and don't want anything more from you other than to make sure you're okay? Because there are. Not just your boyfriend, but me, Aiden and probably other people as well. Because as Aiden said, not everyone in life is going to hurt you."
Aiden and Evan Aiden regretted opening his mouth right after he did, unfortunately it was too late to take it back. Evan just rolled her eyes at the pairing. "Yeah, well as you can tell, I'm perfectly fucking fine and I don't need people to see if I'm okay, I can take care of myself, like I've said about fifty thousand times before but none of you sharing and caring bitches seem to get it through your fucking heads. "So let me guess, you're here because Darren called you and probably cried about shit. That's the only reason that I can see you bothering to come over here so if you're going to tell me how much he's hurting or whatever? Save it because I don't need to hear it from you or your gay BFF there. If you came over to see if I've finally off'd myself, then well, you can tell I haven't since I'm apparently breathing and standing here. Your job is done. Adios."
Sunny rolled her eyes right back at Evan, shaking her head. "You're not fine, Evan. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to know that you're not fine. I don't care if you don't want or don't think you need people to see that you're okay because they're going to care and there's nothing you can do or say that will change that. People are going to care about you whether you like it or not. Yes, Darren texted me and told me some things, but I'm not here to talk about him. I came here to talk about you and only you. That's it."
Aiden and Evan shook her head. "I'm breathing aren't I? Means I'm fine. Don't know what makes you fucking think that I'm not. Yeah, well, I don't want to talk to you. Or him. Or anyone for that matter. I have things to do that don't involve looking at you, who I wish wasn't even in this state. The same goes for fruity boy over there." She pointed to Aiden. Aiden whined a little bit, his hands reaching forward and lightly touching Evan's hair. "Can I at least just please fix your hair? We don't have to talk, just let us in and I'll give you a nice little hair therapy thing and if you want to talk, then you can talk, if you don't. Then we don't have to! Right Sunny?" He looked over at the hippie female, hoping that Sunny got what he was trying to do. He figured if they went in and sat around then maybe they could coax the other into talking. "And for the record sweetie, I'm not gay, I happen to like chicks and dicks, so let's get our facts straight shall we?"
Sunny could have listed many reasons she had for believing that Evan was far from fine, but that would have gotten them nowhere. She was grateful when Aiden intervened and immediately saw what he was doing... or at least hoping to do if Evan went for it. She nodded her head in agreement with him before looking back towards the orange haired girl. "Exactly, we don't have to talk. Have you had lunch yet? I can run and pick up some food if you haven't? I think I saw a Chinese place nearby on the way here." she suggested.
Aiden and Evan Evan backed up from Aiden's grabby hands towards her hair, snapping her teeth at him. "No, you fucking can't touch my hair. There's nothing wrong with it. Sorry I'm not a priss like you that cares about how I look." Then she looked at Sunny and glared. "No, I'm not hungry and I haven't been so if you want to take Aiden and go get some, go for it. Just don't bother coming back. You're not getting in, get it through your heads. You've done your good deed for the day by checking up on the nut case. Though, it wasn't needed. Silas called earlier and did that for everyone. Anything else?"
Sunny pressed her lips in a line before finally nodding her head and glancing back at Aiden before looking back towards Evan. "Fine... we'll leave. However, I'm coming back tomorrow, then the next day, then the day after that. Every day. Whether you care or not or like it or not, I care about you and I'm not giving up on you. You can let me in or not, and you can talk to me or not. For all I care you can hit me. Though I... prefer that you didn't do that last option." she said with a laugh before getting serious again and stepping closer to her, placing her hand on the side of the doorway. "Get used to me... because I'm not going anywhere and I'm not going to let you push me away." She maintained eye contact for a moment before backing away and glancing up at Aiden before turning back towards the girl. "So I'll see you tomorrow." She said, giving her a nod. "and you'd better open the door or I'll have someone open it for me."
Aiden and Evan Evan's brow rose and she wrinkled her nose. "I'm tempted to just punch you now and get it over with. You're not going anywhere? Fine. Stick around, just stay away from me. Occupy your time with Darren, I'm sure that would make him extremely happy. I don't have to push you away. We're not close. We were never close and won't be so keep coming by. You can't get into this place unless I let you, so nice try about the threat to get in. Now," she stepped forward and out the door to push Sunny backwards rather hard. "Go away. And take fruit rollup boy with you. Before I actually DO punch you in the face because I can." Aiden swallowed and cleared his throat. "I wouldn't advice punching her, and stop being so hostile. We're not trying to push our way in, we're simply here. How Darren puts up with your constant nonsense is beyond me. Or why Sunny even wants to try and be your friend. It seems rather pointless." That didn't settle well with Evan and sure Aiden was taller than her, but her arms were pretty long. Her arm swung back and it popped Aiden in the mouth. The blonde yelped and brought his hand to his mouth before glowering at Evan who just shrugged and stepped back into her apartment. "Now go the fuck away." Slamming the door on the both of them.
Sunny had started to back away when Evan stepped outside and gasped, stumbling when she was shoved, but managed to stay standing as she watched the two interact. Her eyes widened at Aiden's words, knowing that Evan wouldn't take kindly to them at all. It was of little surprise to her when Evan popped Aiden in the jaw, but she still let out a gasp as she reached out to her friend, placing her hand on his arm and looking up at him. She heard the door slam, but didn't give it any more of her attention as she looked at Aiden's jaw. "Shit... I'm sorry... I'm so sorry." She said, shaking her head. "come on, let's get you some ice."
And they went to get Aiden some ice and also ice cream. Because ice cream makes everything better. Meanwhile, Evan literally tore apart the spare bedroom in a fit of rage.
Grace: Sighing to herself, Grace looked over her shoulder to notice Casper was asleep, at least she thought he was. She then gently got up, careful not to wake him up. Grabbing her blanket, she then make her way out and over to Asher's tent. "Ash" she whispered hoping he hadn't fallen asleep.
Asher: Asher lied down in the tent he was assigned, he didn't even know where Ayla was so he was pretty content with being by himself. He closed his eyes and tried to sleep for a moment but, he was restless, and it came as a pleasant surprise when he heard his girlfriend whisper his name, "Yes?" He asked, getting up and moving out of the tent. "Hi." He grinned.
Grace: Grace smiled brightly when she heard Asher's groggy voice. As soon as he was infront of her, she jumped into his arms, attacking him with kisses. "Hi, I missed you." she sighed placing her forehead against his then looked in his tent. "Oh Ayla isn't in here?" she asked as she wrapped her arms around his neck.
Asher: Asher chuckled as she jumped on him, he wrapped his arms around her, smiling as she kissed his face. "I missed you too love." he spoke softly, closing his eyes as their foreheads touched before he nodded in reply to her question. "Yeah, I don't know where she went." he widened his eyes before pecking her lips once more, "What made you wanna come over here?" He asked, smirking. He already knew the reason.
Grace: Grace giggled softly as she looked from his smirk back to his stare, "Why do you think I came over here" She smirked while placing her hands on his chest, pushing him back into the tent as she placed a deep kiss against his lips. "You were a very good boy and smiled for me. So now you get a reward" she said brushing her lips against his.
Asher: Asher widened his eyes in fake shock, "Well, well , well.. " He chuckled, keeping his arms wrapped around her petite waist as she pushed him back. Asher kissed her back just as deep, "Oh God, now I know to be a good boy for you always." He said against her lips, kissing her again roughly, moving his hands down to her ass.
Grace: Hearing Ashers comment, Grace smiled into the kiss. Feeling his hands against her ass cause a small moan to slip between her lips. "You really should" she said pulling away for a moment as she unbuttoned her shirt to reveal her lace, see through bra. She then giggled as she tugged at his shirt, "This has got to come off"
Asher: Asher bit onto his lip as he heard her moan, he missed that sound. He nodded in response to what she had said, releasing his lip and then pressing them together after she had taken her shirt off. He quickly did the same and moved one of his hands to her breasts, squeezing them together. "Fuck, I've missed you." He kissed her lips again gently.
Grace: Grace moaned once more a little louder this time at the feeling of Asher's hands against her breast. She then wrapped her arms around his neck as she kissed him deeply, "Mm, I've missed you too baby. More than anything" Smirking, she then pushed him down, straddling his waist as she moved her hips against his in a teasing manner.
Asher: Asher took in the sound of her moaning, he kept his hand on her boobs, kissing her back deeply before he replied,"I'm here now, no worries." He reassured her, letting out a groan as she grinded her hips against his. He moved his lips to her neck, kissing down it softly.
Casper the friendly ghost: Casper was almost drifting off until he heard a sudden noise come from the tent next to him. He wasn't sure if he was just dreaming the noise, so he took a second to take everything in, trying to reopen his eyes. The noise suddenly happened again, causing his eyes to widen. A disgusted look appeared on his face as he realized what it was, "OH GOD!" he yelled, taking his pillow and placing it over his face so he could try to block out the sound.
Grace: Grace smiled as she tangled her fingers in Asher's hair and pulled slightly. "Good. I'm glad to finally have you back in my life. And i'm never letting you leave again" she said in a breathy voice. When he began kissing down her neck, Grace tilted her head to the side small moans slipping from her lips. She keeping quiet but it had been a long time since she felt Asher's touch.
Asher: Asher bit onto his lip as she pulled at his hair, letting it go before he spoke. "I won't leave again. I need you." He spoke softly, peppering kisses down her neck again, gently sucking on her skin. He listened to her moans, smiling against her skin before moving down lower to her breasts.
Casper the friendly ghost: Casper continued to hear the moans, the sounds unable to be blocked out, and he quickly rolled his body over to noticed a missing Grace. "OH HELL NO!" He angrily stated, ripping his sleeping bag open and quickly rummaging to unzipper the tent. As his feet shuffled on the ground, he came up to the front of their tent, sticking his ear to the side to make sure he got the right one. Hearing more girl moans, he sighed deeply, unzipping the tent aggressively. Inside revealed the mystery culprits, "WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON IN HERE?! YOU BOW CHICKA WOW WOWING?!"
Grace: Grace had a bright smile on her face as she watched Asher kiss down her chest. Right as another moaned slipped from her lips, she heard another male voice and the zipper to their tent. She then jumped off Asher's lap as she covered her chest and looked around for her shirt. She then looked up at the male standing in the entrance of the tent. "Casper?! What the fuck I thought you were asleep!" she said angrily.
Asher: Asher widened his eyes at Casper, blinking a few times to take in what just happened, he wanted to laugh but he stopped himself, focusing on what he was missing out on. "Why would you go on and ruin this for me?!" He frowned, glaring at the boy.
Casper the friendly ghost: "Would it kill ya to keep your voice down Mary? Enough with singing to the angels, OKAY!" he jokingly answered back before looking over to Asher, "Oh shut up, like you were really "gettin some" anyway!" Stepping into the tent, it wasn't long before he jumped to lay down on both of their bodies, making himself feel comfortable. "Ew Grace you're all sweaty!"
Asher: "Fuck off!" He yelled at Casper, shoving him off of him, he moved to the corner of the tent away from him.
Grace: Grace sighed while sitting up and glared at Casper. "Well no shit Sherlock. You get sweaty when you're about to have sex!" she said as she grabbed her shirt and covering herself with it after remember her bra was see through. "Could you please get out!" she yelled once more
Casper the friendly ghost: "Oh hell no, you're both so busted! AIDENNNNN!" He yelled, pausing for a moment before continuing, "AIDEN COME HERE! IT APPEARS A LIVE PORNOS GOING ON! IT'S CALLED ALL HAIL MARY ONE OH ONE!" he teased, giggling at his joke shortly after.
Aiden: Aiden ran in shortly after, looking at him. "What the hell is going on here, someone better either be on fire or dead!"
Asher: Asher looked down as Aiden ran in, he stifled a laugh. "No one's dead."
Casper the friendly ghost: Casper just smiled and sat up, opening his arms to show what was around, "I caught these two little criters, matin!" he tattle tailed, flashing Grace a evil look, "I'm still cleaner than you!"
Grace: Grace rolled her eyes, "Oh my god, can you not?!" she said as she finally slipped her shirt on. "We're adults. If we want to have sex, we can have sex" Grace glared at Casper, "Shut up!"
Aiden: "I thought I said no sex on this trip?" Aiden glared at everyone involved. "If I'm not getting action, nobody is getting action"
Casper the friendly ghost: Casper egged on, "YOU TELL EM BRO!"
Asher: Asher couldn't help but laugh, "Goddamn it. I don't know what to tell you Aiden." He shook his head waggling his finger.
Casper the friendly ghost: "Sooooo what are you gonna do for their punishment?" he wiggled his body a bit, getting excited for the news he was about to hear.
Aiden: "Well for one, I don't even know why Grace is in this tent?"
Grace: Grace rolled her eyes some, looking at Aiden in disbelief, "Are you kidding me right now?! Just because you're not having sex, we can't?!" She then threw her hands in the air while looking at both Casper and Aiden. "Punishment?! Are you serious?! I was in her because I wanted to.." she paused looking over at Asher for a moment then looked back at Aiden and Casper, "I wanted to spend the rest of the night with my boyfriend!"
Asher: Asher nodded in agreement, sitting back against the tent.
Aiden: "That's nice, get your ass back in the other tent"
Asher: Asher rolled his eyes, looking over at Grace.
Grace: Grace looked at Aiden, "I'm 20 years old! I can do whatever I want!"
Casper the friendly ghost: Casper purposely rolled his body back onto grace, "Now you listen like a good little 20 year old, ya her!"
Grace: Grace looked at Casper and rolled her eyes, "I suggest you shut up!"
Casper the friendly ghost: "Make me!" he argued playfully, playfully booping her nose. "You're gonna get in troubbbbbleeeee haha!"
Grace: Grace's face turned a deep red as she smacked Casper's hand away from her nose, "Leave me alone! You ruin everything!"
Aiden: "Shut up and go wait in the tent" Aiden growled
Casper the friendly ghost: Casper sat up, "Here, I'll show you an example!" He helped, before getting up and exiting the text, popping his little head back in, "Here's your queeeee!" he whispered.
Grace: Grace rolled her eyes as she got up and angrily made her way to the tent her and Casper where sharing. She then sat down on her side and rolled her eyes. "This is fucking stupid. You're treating us like we're kinds."
Aiden: "Because you act like children" he laughed, walking in. "When you act like a kid, I'll treat you like a kid"
Grace: Grace rolled her eyes once again, "Well hurry up and tell me what my "punishment" is so I don't have to see your stupid face anymore"
Casper the friendly ghost: Casper smirked, looking back an forth from Aiden and Grace nosily, "So what ya gonna do to fry her?"
Aiden: "I'm not gonna fry her, but I do want you and her to spend every minute together" he smirked
Casper the friendly ghost: "WAIT WHAT? NO! HELL NO! I need my alone time with Devin!" he confessed, taken back by his brothers hurtful words.
Aiden: "Oh that's true, so you can drop her off with me when you want to do that" he laughed.
Casper the friendly ghost: "Hehehehehehe!" He evily giggled, looking over at grace with a EAT THAT face.
Grace: Grace glared at Aiden and shook her head, "Yea uh how about no? I'm trying to spend time with Asher too, HELLO!" She crossed her arms, "Seriously, fuck you both" she said holding up both middle fingers to them before laying down to face the wall of the tent and pulling her cover over her head.
Aiden: "It's nice to want" he shrugged, looking at her. "I don't care"
Casper the friendly ghost: Casper crawled over to her body and gave her a soft, comforting hug, "Aww ma poor babyyyyy!" he kissed up, holding on tighter.
Grace: "But my thing is, you're gonna let him spend time with Devin. But wont let me spend time with Asher!" She said as tears filled her eyes. She then jerked away from Caspers hug and kicked her leg back some, "Leave. Me. Alone."
Aiden: "Well yeah, because he's not having sex with Devin"
Casper the friendly ghost: Casper sat back up and glared at him, "Am I though?"
Grace: Grace wiped at her face, "I thought the whole point of this trip was so you could bring this group back together Aiden. But no, you're making it worse! Just because you're not getting any, no one else can? Kindly fuck off I'm literally done with you. And if I see your face much longer, I will throw a rock at it."
Casper the friendly ghost: Casper put his hand up to his face and whispered in Aidens direction, "Don't worry, she can hardly even lift one!" He informed, with a wink.
Aiden: "Oh believe me, she's not gonna lay a hand on Summers property" he winked
Grace: Grace rolled her eyes as she got up pushing Aiden out of the tent before zipping it closed once again. She then looked over at Casper, "GO TO SLEEP!" she screamed at him looked as if she had been possessed and laid back down
Casper the friendly ghost: Casper just looked at her in shock, watching her as she layed back down. When everything was silent and calm again, Casper commented, "Orrrrrrrrrr you could just give my brother head?! You'll have Asher in no time!"
Grace: Grace sat up, throwing a pillow at Casper, "SHUT UP!"
Casper the friendly ghost: Casper giggled, holding the pillow hostage, "Hey thanks, now I can double fluff it!"
Grace: Grace held her middle finger up in Casper's direction as she closed her eyes trying to get to sleep.
Casper the friendly ghost: Casper smiled at her before getting comfortable in his sleeping bag. Finally satisfied, he yelled out randomly into the scilence, "GOODNIGHT MARRRYYYYY!"
The minute that the Scott, Isaac and the twins bursted into the tent where they could scent the blood of Stiles, it was clear it was a trap, and the now closed circle of mountain ash locking the wolves inside the tent confirmed that belief. And, to add onto that, Isaac felt his cognitive state begin to brew and boil into his animalistic side, the sensation familiar to what had happened at the Glen Capri Motel only months before; Wolfsbane. Isaac wanted to cry out for he knew what was happening, or at least, knew that his pack must have been caught. That their attempts at hiding away from all the threats had failed and this wasn't good. Not at all. The human side of Isaac was subduing inside of him faster than he could anticipate or handle. He could already feel his face sprouting hair, his Canine's elongating along with his claws, and his body shifting into its half man, half wolf form. Before he could react to his surroundings, to the painful and forced shift that was occurring to him at random, Isaac felt Scott and Ethan collapse beside him. His last move, his last attempt to cling to his human side, his last thought while still himself was Help Scott. Help Scott. Help Scott.
And then Isaac was gone completely.
A low growl emitted from deep within his throat that nearly shook the tent. His back was turned to Aiden yet his body trembled with animalistic rage toward the conscious twin. Isaac felt the urge for territory, for utter hostility and lost control, the urge to kill stronger than he had ever felt those emotions before. He felt feral.
And Aiden just so happened to be his target of choice.
After a whole day of sleep, Lucy felt a lot better. She still mused over the fact that she was sick - but then, eventually, had to settle for the fact and that this would happen as often as it would have without magic. She rose early on a Saturday morning and started studying, crossing off most of everything on her list and ready everything that she had hallucinated through the day before. Of course, Scott was in no way an early riser, neither was Stiles - and their mother was at work, so Lucy had the house to herself. For a while. She did some chores before she realized that it was time for her part time shift at the grill. She left a note on the table before she headed off, the grill not being so far from the house that she walked to it in the smooth winds of a the California fall.
She got into uniform (the apron and the cap) and stood behind the register, taking over from another senior in her class. It'd been a fast day - nothing too special happened at all. Once the shift was over, Lucy was picking up her bag and going through her phone - halfway to the door when she realized that Aiden was closing up the grill today. So she set the bag down on the counter and leaned against one of the seats, "Someone's dedicated." She said proudly, "Look at you, being all work and serious." Lucy laughed, then smiled - it was good to see Aiden in a good place, after that he's been through. Of course, before the memory of that kiss rose, she shoved it back into the deepest pits in her mind. Now, now Aiden was her friend, and she didn't want to make things awkward with her thoughts.
Gemma left her dorm, locking the door behind her before venturing down the corridor. She had arranged to meet Aiden, and she was more than happy to oblige. After the last time she spoke, she was somehow, worried about him. The dizzy spell wasn't something she'd seen before, and he seemed somehow used to it. Nonetheless, she wanted to see him any way. They got on well, and she felt so relaxed around him which was unusual for her around people. In her bag she had a packet of Haribo's, just in case they got hungry. Though they'd probably just sleep, which she would be happy to since she was pretty tired herself. She hadn't been sleeping well, she had too much on her mind which made it difficult for her to fully relax. Once she got to his dorm, she knocked lightly on the door and took a step back as she waited for him to open the door.
She couldn't believe it - it had actually worked. The plan that sounded so close to insanity it bordered on suicide worked. Of course, had it not been for Cassian, Lucy would have pretty much become smoked salmon. She looked down at the crystal vial in her hand. Whilst Cassian had insisted to come with her, Lucy knew how personal this has gotten. To her, she held Aiden in that little crystal vial, no matter how abnormal that sounded. She smiled a little and ran her thumb over the clear material before she tucked it into her pocket, securing it as she made her way to the apartment building that Aiden lived in - part of her hoping Fire was there, and the other merely aghast at the fact that he was actually there.
Deep breath held in, she stood in front of the door for a long moment before she eventually knocked, and put on her game face. Cassian told her that the soul only needed to be guided to its body and it would find its way - so basically, Lucy was going to bash that vial at whilst being in a 10 meter radius from Fire. There was always the risk that Fire would pull one of the knives that he was oh so skilled in using on her - after all, he did want a round two of the night that he'd almost killed her. But Lucy was bent over getting Aiden back, and she had some tricks up her sleep. Not even Fire's iniquity and somewhat wit would see this coming. He was so sure no one would figure out how he seized.
Lucy puckered her lips and narrowed her eyes, one hand resting over her pocket - the other on her waist.
