Just a Mess with a Name & a Price || Claudia&OPEN
A cloud of smoke followed behind the petite blonde. Pulling a final drag off the cigarette between her pointer and middle fingers, Claudia Caine flicked the butt of the still lit cigarette to the ground. Glancing around momentarily, she tucked a loose piece of straight blonde hair behind her ear. As much as she hated coming to the community college, she knew that it was a the go-to spot for anyone looking to score. And, of course, she was eagerly willing to offer those services. Anyone who took part in the pitiful, “drug culture,” of Bentley knew that Claudia was the person to see. She always had the best drugs, after all.
Noticing an empty bench, Claudia grabbed a seat as quickly as she could - the vultures on campus would only allow such a perfectly inconspicuous spot to go untouched for so long. Shoving her messenger bag full of goodies in the space next to her, Claudia reached inside to grab her headphones, which she then plugged into her phone and placed one earbud in her right ear. She sat casually scrolling through her Spotify playlist in order to determine what she was mood for on this particular afternoon. Grouplove it is, she thought, smirking to herself as she picked one of her favorite songs.
Reaching into her bag once more, Claudia pulled out her journal - which was mostly scribbled with the latest chemistry equations she was working on, sprinkled with ingredient lists for her latest concoctions. The druggies in Bentley would buy almost anything, especially if they knew Claudia had made it. Of course, that would seem quite irresponsible - who buys drugs some 18 year old made in their parent’s house? Despite the obvious red flags, Claudia tried all of her homemade drugs herself, first, to ensure her product was in its’ purest form. How else was she supposed to make a name for herself?
Before she could begin placing pen to paper; however, Claudia noticed a shadow out of the corner of her eye - hopefully a potential customer. Removing the earbud from her right ear, Claudia closed her journal and smiled up at the stranger.
“Hi there.” She said, offering an innocent smile.
