Living with Dylan probably wasn’t the easiest thing in the world but she liked to think she brought enough stability and food that Colton wasn’t about to leave her high and dry paying bills she could not afford. So, like most days, as she walks into the apartment they shared, her bra is the first thing off and instantly flung across the living space to be recovered later when she had some sanity again. Except this time it went straight into her roommates face, dangling from his ear. She gasps from surprise, from amusement, as she pulls her hands from where they were folded up under her blouse, fixing the fabric so it sat flat again. “You can’t just walk into the impact zone!” is her form of apology as she walks into their shared kitchen, dumping a bag of groceries on the counter as she does. “You coming or going?” She never knew, it seemed the later most of the time. Not that she was complaining, having the whole place to herself was great but she did miss her roomie now and then.

Zaki went into the living room, putting the rest of the plates in the sink, Thalia already having moved over to the couch. “I’m going to have to watch a few videos on some new recipes soon,” he joked, casually walking over to her. “My youngest, she’d basically be fine with the same three dishes over and over again.” Of course, it was clear that Thalia had more refined taste than a 10 year, back when they were still part of a family, living under one roof. He slowly sat down, it wasn’t often that he sat there with her, wanting to give her space. “I am very glad you are fine with coming over as much as you do. It’s nice, not having to be here all alone, you know?” he asked her. Zaki wasn’t entirely sure she would understand how nice it was for him, having someone to share the home with, even for just a few hours every few nights. 

He had driven  with Chloe blind folded for the entirety of the journey, wanting to keep this a secret from her having only told her they were going on adventure for the weekend. She always did so much for him and he really wanted to do something special as just the two of them, it had been ages since they had gone on a weekend away together, something he wanted to be able to do more with her. If he was to be honest with himself, he did not even know if she would like this idea so there was every chance it could backfire but he hoped she would be excited for it and he also hoped he had packed her bag correctly for the adventure as was sure she would only laugh at him if he packed something stupid.

Pulling up to the site, Luca parked the car and looked over to Chloe with a smile. " No no... You can't take it off yet. " he raised a hand and placed it upon her lap giving her right thigh a gentle squeeze. " Not much longer... I promise" his eyes flickered to her lips for a moment, being unable to resist giving her a quick peck on the lips before pulling away and unfastening both of their seat belts. " No peaking!" he chuckled at her before opening the car door and stepping out, closing it behind him. He made his way to the trunk of the car as he took the two bags in his hand, slamming it down before going around the car to open the door for Chloe to step out.  

" I'll tell you when you can take it off, Starr... You've been very good so far" he teased as he took a hold of her hand with his free hand, awaiting for her to get out of the car, keeping a close eye on her incase she fell out.

Hearing a click at the door, Valentina’s eyes snapped to the direction of the doorway as she got up from her seat, brushing herself down as she waited to see who would step in, almost certain it was Charlotte.

Week 4, a response to Liquefaction Part 1/2

I wanted to create a feeling of emotional liquefaction, as though you yourself were melting, going through a change of emotional state. It also reminded me of theoretically what would occur if you got sucked into a black hole. Time slows down and your molecules get ripped apart and you essentially dissolve into that void space. I wanted to emulate that through the laboured breathing, the uncertain notes and the tracks playing both forwards and backwards, to confuse the passage of time and represent that mental and physical reckoning.
