"Oh...Well, I don't see any harm in /that./"

2015-10-19 01:42:33

🌀

....oh. Phew. "You aren't angry about that?"

2015-10-19 01:43:17

●

"Why would I be? You asked her to do it."

2015-10-19 01:43:35

🌀

"That's true, but...huh. I thought you were upset."

2015-10-19 01:44:14

●

"I am but...I see what has happened when I didn't talk to her about it."

2015-10-19 01:44:47

🌀

"I kind of was hoping you'd talk to her earlier, but I can see why you didn't."

2015-10-19 01:46:20

●

"Mhmm....Is there anything else that you need to tell me, Seculus?"

2015-10-19 01:46:51

🌀

He says that like he's fully expecting me to say yes. What? "....uh...well, I'm not sure about tell, but I needed to ask you something. And...the question sort of requires an explanation, so maybe."

2015-10-19 01:48:34

●

"....Go on."

2015-10-19 01:49:02

🌀

Why is this conversation already so unnaturally intimidating? "Well....a......a few weeks ago, something very strange happened, between us, I mean, and it was...well.../very/ strange."

2015-10-19 01:51:51

●

"Strange how?"

2015-10-19 01:52:35

🌀

"Well, to start with, she generated ice and I turned into a parrot. In Cali--the foggy place, I mean."

2015-10-19 01:53:26

●

...Well what he thought happened didn't caused that. "Do you know what started it all?"

2015-10-19 01:54:23

🌀

"Um...earlier that night, we pretended to be on a date to make Anndrea jealous...she broke up with me recently...and it sort of...escalated from there."

2015-10-19 01:55:37

●

"..Ah...I see." So maybe it did happen? "Seculus, did you fuck my best friend?"

2015-10-19 01:56:49

🌀

I turned red and put a hand to my mouth. "Wh--/no/!"

2015-10-19 01:57:35

●

"Well it certainly felt like it, and I was at Cale's when it happened."

2015-10-19 01:58:22

🌀

"I didn't..../heavens/, no." I'm not Seth. "I..." How do I even word this so it doesn't sound sick? "...I accidentally bit her neck, and she liked it, so............." You're an idiot.

2015-10-19 02:00:31

●

"...Good." Seculus might not have to face the wrath of Zane today. "And that's probably what has started everything. As for why? I don't know, I'd have to ask Nikolas."

2015-10-19 02:02:55

🌀

...the wrath of Zane. That sounded completely terrifying. "Nikolas? Is that really...?"

2015-10-19 02:04:37

●

"If anyone is an expert on the subject, it's him. In fact, I need to call him anyway." He pulled out his phone. "If you'd excuse me." He slipped outside and put the phone to his ear.

2015-10-19 02:06:07

🌀

...oh, bloody Hell. I nodded and went upstairs. Wait, where can I wait that I won't accidentally end up seeing Ivory naked? Umm....Kinsley's room. Here we are. The door was open. "Hello." He didn't look up from his book or even acknowledge my presence. I frowned a little and rapped on the doorframe. Nothing. That...must be a very good book.

Ivory stepped out of the bathroom, dressed and hair still damp. As she made her way back to her room to put on a fresh coat of makeup, she stopped as she saw Seculus attempted to get Kinsley's attention. "You know." She spoke up. "You're better off throwing something in front of the book to get his attention. He's deaf without his hearing aids unless you're whispering into his ear."

2015-10-19 02:12:27

🌀

I turned to look at her. "Really? That's unfortunate. Why would he have them off?"

2015-10-19 02:14:32

●

"No idea. I guess to tune out the world."
