He lowers his arms and blinks. “A party?” He shakes his head, looking back up at the stars. “No, I never been invited to a party, I was never popular..” He shifts his gaze to look at Jeff again as he leans back on his own palms. “Well that’s because i’m not a nerd. I just want to pass my classes..”

[Text The idiot lawyer]: How about waiting until after the quiz. I’m pretty sure you can pass that in your sleep. Not like I give a shit most of the time, [Text The idiot lawyer]: Annie… that’s the one I said was the most likely one to get possessed isn’t it? [Text The idiot lawyer]: You’re afraid of that kid?

That night had been particularly lonely and Frankie knew full well that she had to get out of her apartment or she was going to lose it. So, doing what any rational woman would do in her situation; she grabbed some ice cream, Chinese food, and booze, and showed up at Jeff’s home unannounced. She knocked on the door, standing in a pair of sweatpants, uggs, and a graphic tee of some band she saw in concert once upon a time with a friend, not caring how she looked. When the door was finally answered, she held up the bags. “I come bearing gifts if you accept my company.”

“   do  you  wanna  go  get  a  drink  somewhere,  or    . . .   there’s  a  diner  nearby  that’s  twenty-four  hours  and  they  do  really  good  milkshakes.   ”

It hadn't actually been too hard to resist drinking or smoking, part of her work with the therapist, until the car had stopped near the broken building in one of the worst parts of town and she had remembered how her actual apartment looked. Now she wanted a drink. "Bees deserve rights too, Jeff! And a voice! How can you assume bees enjoy sharing their life's work with people? To be used like little yellow... fat slave insects and for what? Maple syrup, brown rice syrup, work just as much as honey! Give your honey back, you arrogant human being!" Her cat Daniel mewled in his carrier after she took him out of the car, and she sighed. "Be strong, Daniel, you'll get used to the smell if you just let it happen now. Just close your eye and let it in." At least it didn’t reach the apartments, so it was only temporary.

She hated when they hid in big places like this. Always made it trickier, and if there were people about, well ... she turned in a slow circle as the sonic buzzed, finally getting the soft blip of detection. She took off at a fair pace, stepping inside the building as she continued to scan, ignoring the stares of people around her.
