Rowan sighed dejectedly, shoulders slumped even more as she took in the scene in front of her. The seat of her bike was wedged in between two branches next to the bicycle rack in the main entrance to the library. The jocks had done it again, or maybe it was the cheerleaders. Or the guy that lived below her apartment that was always scowling at her… Or anybody, really. Rowan knew she was most definitely not liked at the school or around town even if she tried to keep a low profile. And the seat of a bicycle was a pretty important part. She had tried using a ruler to push it out, but she wasn’t close at all. The perks of being underweight and 5′1.
With another sigh, she looked around but she didn’t see any familiar faces. She had to make it home before Father was home or before it rained… God knew her rickety bike could barely take regular pavement let alone water and puddles. And she did not want to make him angry before a long weekend, whether he was going to work or not.
So Rowan took one last look around and started throwing her water bottle at the tree, waiting to see if her seat would just fall down.
Danny was walking back from the magic castle motel after stopping in on his mom during her lunchbreak, THE WEEKENDS FUCKING SUCKED. especially ones where his mom was working and his dad was hanging around the house DRINKING and SMOKING and INJECTING whatever SHIT he could get his hands on. The teenager looks up and notes the DARKENING sky, great, it’s probably gonna rain. That’s just what they need. As he crosses the road, he notes a familiar face, and in typical Danny fashion, he can’t help but walk over to have a look at whatever it is that’s captured her attention. ‘‘ woah, what’s up with the SEAT in the TREE? ’’
