Lazy Days

Text: OPEN

It had been years since the not-so-young siren had been on school grounds, but Monroe was nothing short of excited to be back in the one place where she truly felt at home. Clearly, there was something missing now, but she knew this was the only place she could be close to Elias, now. Not much had changed; Even a few of the girl’s favorite hangouts from the past still remained in the older parts of the building. An etching of E+M in the abandoned girl’s restroom was still there, too. She was counting on that much. 

It wasn’t uncommon for the memory of Michelle, somebody Sawyer’s heart had once held closer than anybody else, to cross the dark haired girl’s mind. More often than not, it was unexpected, even. Today was no exception, as the girl stared blankly at a page in the novel she had been reading, thinking back on the past two years. As she snapped back to reality, she quickly scanned the room, hoping nobody had noticed her momentary lapse. Of course, somebody did. “It’s rude to stare.” She commented roughly, trying to compose herself.

“You’re going to have to try harder than that if you expect me to AGREE to be your valentine.” Remington teased, rolling her eyes. Truth be told, she was just nervous to let somebody get close to her again. But, the offer was tempting nonetheless. 

After Samantha’s passing, Kitty had found it more difficult than usual to roam the halls as she usually did. But, after spending far too long in the downstairs, invisible and alone, she couldn’t fight back how much she missed her twin, and the other students at the school.
