She hadn’t meant for it to happen. No. Wren had been telling a fortune, a fake one for $20, and saw the things the man on the date with the woman had been planning. The things he would do to her when he got her back to her place. The things he wanted to do to Wren for seeing him, though he carefully kept his face hidden from her, in the shadows surrounding her quiet little, dimly lit table. She’d only wanted to stop him. She’d been planning to call the police, but when she followed them, saw the glint of the scalpel even as he was walking her inside, something had snapped.

It was a blur after that, but she came to the one person she knew would help her. Bloodied hands. Magic depleted. Her ‘fortune teller’ get up of a scarf, long skirt, peasant blouse, every bit of it was covered in blood, none hers. And the woman who had been about to be murdered? Telling the police a story about why the man, who had made the first cut before Wren could stop him, had turned his scalpel on himself. She would not remember the red haired witch that had been behind him, just inside her home, making the man a puppet for her. His hands did as her hands said, and he turned, looking into her eyes, as the final cut came, spraying her with arterial blood as he slit his own throat, falling soon after. 

“Shaun...” Weak, she leaned in the door. “Shaun, can I borrow your shower?” she got out before swaying, falling into his arms.

She automatically took a step every time the excruciatingly slow line would finally move. But of course to bide her time Wren pulled out her current read, picking back up around half way through, immediately pulled back into the story and the world. The girl hardly noticed eyes following the sentences too, reading every word with her, until that person speaks. "It's such an amazing book! Do you wanna hear about it?"

{ you act like such a tough guy but this apartment has thin walls so guess what? i can actually hear you when you watch horror movies and shriek so why do you watch them if u’re scared also do you want me to watch them with you bc i’m never scared | @invcntion } She'd hardly spoke to the boy next door, always offering a smile as they passed on the stairs or offering to lend a hand. He always acted and looked tough, especially compared to her, while she was pastel colours and flowing dresses, he seemed to give off a sense of the opposite. Which is why, as she was putting the days food shopping away, she let out a giggle at the girly shirks coming from the apartment next to her, for the third time that week. Knowing the boy was alone, and potentially terrified by the mumbling film that was playing on a screen the other side of the wall. With a box of chocolates in hand she knocks the door, hiding around the corner until she hears it creak open in response, jumping into the frame with a loud "boo!"

"So, it's meant to be a really clear night tonight." The girl glanced out of the window, watching the slowly setting sun as she placed a notebook and a few other things into her backpack. "I thought maybe we could go stargazing for a bit? I'll drive us out to a place with no light pollution and we could look at the constellations?"

{ @aquariusthreads } "Right," Wren placed a cup of tea down in front of the other and took a seat at the kitchen table, "tell me what's happened then?" They’d turned up on her door step only five minutes ago, looking what the girl could only describe as distraught. So now with a hot drink and cookies on a plate, she wanted to try and calm them down.
