Waiting for seven o’clock was like waiting for paint to dry. Harlow had been anxious and on edge all day. She felt like she was on a time restraint.. like every second that passed was another second closer to Kace finding out what she had done.  As she walked towards the ovals in the dark, she couldn’t help but remember how much he had freaked out when he’d caught her out in the dark the other night and she couldn’t help but wonder if he would still care that much if he knew.. shaking off the thought as best she could, Harlow quickened her pace a little. She had a job to do tonight, and she was going to do it with a clear head.  Finally reaching the bleachers, Harlow took a seat while she waited for Pascal to show up. She was confident he would after she had helped him recently, but she still felt bad that E was dragging him into yet another problem.  @pascal-andean

Looking around the indoor stadium, Harlow was thrilled. Everything looked beautiful and everyone looked even better. She and Maisie had spent the last month trying to make sure everything was going to be perfect so their classmates could have a good night and show how even with someone as horrible as E lurking around, they could still find the light in the dark. Tonight was about them uniting and she was determined to make sure nothing got in the way of that. Which is why as soon as she spotted Pascal she decided to try smooth things over a little. They hadn’t exactly ended their last conversation on good terms, and although it hurt that he had refused to help her out of a sticky situation, she knew that life was too short to hold any grudges or lose people over something so stupid. Walking up to him from behind, she tapped him on the shoulder ever so lightly. “Hey.” she started with a sheepish smile. “Look I just wanted to apologise for you know.. I was scared of what she would do but it seems like nothing bad happened so I’m sorry.. I shouldn’t have tried to drag you into it.. I shouldn’t have even paid attention to the message in the first place.”

Harlow was just about to leave her dorm room when her phone buzzed in her pocket. She had had a smile on her face most of the morning, but the instant she got a glimpse of the message and the unknown sender her heart sank. Opening it with shaky hands, Harlow bit her lip as she read the text. Kace couldn’t find out about her spiking the punch. Sure she had done it to help Pascal and stop E from doing anything psychotic to his sister, but she wasn’t going to throw an excuse like that at Kace. The truth was, what she had done had hurt someone she cared very deeply about, but she wouldn’t have changed it at all, especially because of the dire circumstances. However that didn’t mean she wanted Kace to know. Nope that was never happening.. so exiting out of the text from E, she sent a text to Pascal: “I need you to meet me by the oval bleachers at 7pm please. It’s important.. I need your help.” @pascal-andean
