Everything Avery had done lately had been impulsive and almost reckless. Deciding to go sober, bleaching her hair, spending a week with her mom, inviting Aedan over with no real plan. She sighed a little as she checked her phone before looking at herself in the mirror, the bags under her eyes were darker than usual - though not sleeping for 36 hours didn’t help with that - and her smile didn’t quite reach her eyes no matter how hard she tried. With a shake of her head she curled up on her sofa, idly playing Mario Kart as she waited for the knock on the door even though she’d left it unlocked, wondering briefly what he’d think of the state she was in. Newly platinum hair, bitten nails, and dark circles to rival a Tim Burton character.

Phone, keys, bag, dog treats. Avery went through her mental checklist of necessities before almost skipping out of her apartment. Smiling at her phone she sent him a quick message to say that she was on her way, ‘be there in 10. meet me outside x’ and then for good measure ‘no hoverboard x’. The walk to Aedan’s was a familiar one, so she hardly looked up from her phone as she walked, scrolling through various social media. As she let her feet lead her on she found herself chuckling at a dumb video of someone falling off of a hoverboard, eyes still glued to her phone even as she got closer to Aedan’s building, her mind elsewhere.
