    Julius could only chuckle and shook his head "Ah no what I do isn't anything exciting really" Julius said before crossing his arms. "Im a professor at the fancy university named Fortissimo...Ive been one for I guess two years or so" Julius said. Teaching could be fun but just talking about it seemed dull. Holding his drink, Julius looked down at it as the ice began to spin. "Before that...I was in the armed forces" Julius said silently.

    Thinking back to those days were not quite pleasant, and because of those days he lost half his world. Unknowingly he placed his hand over his eyepatch covered eye and just stared down at his drink. For the mere seconds he was caught up in his own little world, but suddenly his eyes widened upon realizing what he was doing and turned his attention back over to Lennox. "Ah right, so..er...yeah Im a professor at Fortissimo...no booty stealing or anything of the sort..." Julius said with a smile before finishing his drink and getting himself another drink. At this point he was wondering how much more he could take.

    "I'm so sorry Alex." Estelle said to him. "She's just wired. Hopefully she won't do anything stupid." Estelle said. "Anyway... can we maybe go over to your place for a while?" Estelle asked. "I don't really want to go back with Nat being like that." Estelle said.
    She wasn't sure if it was a good idea to go over there now, after all thats happened. But she didn't want to go back home with Nat being so pissed off. She was sort of convinced that she could handle it. She smiled nervously.

    Cel who had been partly listening, and partly drinking, had just given up on going to talk to the Professor again. She headed out, giving him a glare before she went out the door. She called a cab, and went home. She walked in, wobbling and staggering. She went up into her room. "That didn't make me feel better. At all." She said, turning over to grab her journal.
    "Finally got to apologize to the Professor, but then he started talking to some **** in half a dress. Whatever, not like it matter. I just wanted to get it over with. I don't need to see him ever again. What an ass." She wrote. "I wanted some conversation but I can do better then that." She continued. "Well, at least maybe. Maybe, there will be someone who gets likes my jokes and my sarcasm though more Ill-willed then anything else. Wouldn't that be something?." She wrote down. Then she fell asleep.

    "It's nice." Seraphina said, smiling kindly as she looked around. "I'm so excited that I'm finally meeting your parents." Seraphina told him, though it was apparent that she was a bit nervous.. "I am a bit nervous though Shane. And I don't really get nervous." She whispered to him. "I hope I won't mess up." She thought, sitting down in the living room beside him. "I'll cross my fingers though."
    "Erg... Anyway." Seraphina said, trying to get away from the subject.

    Alex shook his head from Estelle's apology. "It's okay. But to tell the truth... I think I'm a legitimately scared of her now." She gave him a death threat. It was only natural to fear such. How else was he supposed to react. He stood up and brushed himself off. He rubbed his back since it was still throbbing as well.

    Now Estelle wanted to go back to his place. It was okay he thought, but then again, it might not be the best idea given his gender and her issue towards it. He couldn't argue though. "Y-yeah. That is fine. If you stay again you can have my bed, I'll just sleep on the ground with a sleeping bag, just so you can get a peaceful rest tonight." He stated to her in a calming voice.

    "Alright, lets go then." Estelle said cheerfully as they went on they're way.
    "Thanks for letting me stay here. Obviously you can see how Nat gets." Estelle laughed. "And it's nice to get away from everything for a while."
    "It's no problem. I just hope you are okay staying... being that I am a boy." He sighed. "I just want whats best for you."
    "I think I'll be ok..." Estelle said. She really didn't know at this point. If she would wake up crying, or if she would be fine. She felt ok so far. She thought to herself for a while, before realizing she was in a conversation. "Same for you." Estelle chocked.
    "If you say so Estelle... If you feel at all uncomfortable, then you should return home. Don't worry about me. I'll understand if that happens." He smiled. He only wanted to reassure her that he was capable of handling her fear.
    "Really Alex. I'm ok. I promise." Estelle smiled kindly.
    "Okay, Estelle. So... Um... is there anything you'd like to do? I have a few anime or some video games..." He rubbed the back of his head. He didn't ever hang out with anyone before so he was unaware of how to handle it
    "Sure, we can watch an anime if you want." Estelle said. He went to go pick one, and Estelle lied in a more comfortable position on the couch. As they watched together for a really long time, laughing and such along the way. Estelle's eyes started to get really tired. She closed them for a second, but without knowing it, she fell asleep right away.

    The remainder of the day was simple. It was just the two of them together watching anime and laughing. Plainly, just the two of them enjoying each other's company. Alex hadn't felt this happy in a long time. The day may have started in tragedy but this made up for it in the end. There was still this indescribable spark within him that he could not explain. He ignored the feeling uncertain of its meaning.

    Estelle had passed out during one of the episodes they were watching. She must have been extremely tired. The positive thing was, she was sleeping. He had feared she wouldn't be able to sleep at all after those events. Alex simply smiled and fetched his blanket. It was the only one he had but still, she needed it more than him. He wrapped it around her gently and soon after crawled into his own, blanketless bed. "Sleep well Estelle." Moments later, he fell asleep, only with a light shiver.

    Hearing that she was nervous was understandable since he was nervous when he met her parents. Still she wouldn't have too much to worry about, depending on how his parents reacted to certain news. After sitting there for a bit, Shane decided that it was time for her to meet them. "Ready to meet my parents then."
    Taking her hand, he lead her right outside the kitchen and waited for her answer. Fortunately on the other side of the wall was silent so there wasn't anything hinting towards the surprise. Though that didn't change how he was feeling right now. While he probably wasn't as nervous as she was, he was still nervous. Though he knew that avoiding this wouldn't change anything.
    "Just say when and we'll go see them." Still holding on to her hand, he tried to keep himself from showing and sign of nervousness.

    Seraphina was a bit surprised that he had taken her hand. She blushed and then smiled nervously. "It's too late to back out of anything now Seraphina." She thought. She then planned out what she was going to say. "Just let it come to you naturally Seraphina You'll be fine." She thought. "I don't think thats a good idea." She thought. "Just go in there, it's a little late to back out now isn't it?" Seraphina thought. "He did it for you Seraphina. And how bad could it go?" She took a deep breath. "I think I'll be ok. Maybe. Just be yourself." She thought.
    She moved a pace of her hair out of her face, showing that her blue eyes were sparkling. She smoothed at her dress, and then took another deep breath. She squeezed his hand, then looking up at him in a smile. "I'm ready as I'll ever be. Lets go." Seraphina said, as Shane lead her into the kitchen.

    The worn blonde crawled into his bed, huddling tightly under the plush covers. He was extremely exhausted, mainly because of homework. Much unlike him, he put it off for a couple of days while sorting out the whole drama club, Elisa and Ryder thing. When the time came for the piled up assignments to be due, the boy hurriedly half-assed it and handed it in digitally. He wasn't exactly satisfied with the quality of his work, but at least it was finished; it'd be better then getting a zero, after all.

    A few hours before Richie began his homework endeavor, he sat down to breakfast with his best friend and twin brother. He and Elisa clarified the details surrounding the "meeting" at Crystal's. They laughed it off and embraced each other, their strained friendship already solidifying once again. They made plans for Wednesday at their fave hibachi place; luckily, no one from the restaurant caught the disease--at least not yet--so it was still open for business.

    After breakfast, Richie headed back up to his room, biding the couple farewell. What they did for the rest of the day... he had no idea, and he didn't really think much about it, given his homework dilemma.

    The recollection of his past day made the boy smile. He couldn't even express how happy he was that he and Elisa made up. As his eye's felt heavier and he eventually drifted off to sleep, Richie dreamed of the perfect day with his bestie. It gave him a warm feeling in the pit of his stomach on such a chilly winter's night.

    "I'm ready as I'll ever be. Lets go."

    And on her words they walked into the kitchen where they were greeted by his parents set up around a table with food on top. Clearly the food would be nothing over the top, but it was for the occasion anyway. Doing the gentlemanly thing, he pulled out the seat for Seraphina to sit in before taking a seat of his own.

    "So, where are you from Ms. Seraphina?" His father was the first one to speak.

    "Well, I lived in France for a very long while. But I was born In Britain."

    While that little bit of new did spark and interesting look on there faces, Shane's included since he didn't know that she was born in Britain. Overall the curious nature of his parent that he was worried would come out didn't. That was good.

    "France, what's it like there?" Said his mother.

    "It's nice. There are a lot of people talented in the arts. It's kind of like Europe’s New York City." Seraphina laughed.

    "Oh, that does sound nice." His mother was clearly satisfied with the answer that was given. That made one parent down, one more to go.

    "That does sound nice and all, but how long have you known Shane for?" Judging by the way he asked, there was a chance that that was his last question. If that was the case, then this had almost gone off without a hitch, which greatly relieved Shane.

    "We met during the Winter Break... so for about 3 months and a bit now." Seraphina said nervously.

    "Yeah, that sounds right." Shane finally chimed in. Though he wasn't any more sure about that then she was, but that sounded close enough. With his father giving a slight nod in acceptance, he spoke once more.

    "Now that all the questions are done, why don't we start eating." His somewhat goofy nature was back and he was the first one who dug into the food. Taking that as the sign that all was well and the questioning was over, Shane followed suit and started eating as well.

    Now that all the questions were over, Seraphina could finally relax, a little bit. Of course there were matters of natural conversation, but that wasn't that hard as the night progressed. Seraphina found that she was enjoying herself. After dinner was finished, she took a look at the time. "Oh my goodness." Seraphina said. "It's getting late, my parents will probably be wondering where I am." She laughed causally. "Goodnight Mr. and Mrs. Riley." Seraphina said, walking over to shake both of their hands. As Seraphina got up, Shane went along with her to the door, and they both stepped outside. "I think that went rather well." Seraphina smiled. "I had a very good time Shane. Your parents are wonderful." Seraphina said with a soft smile. She took his hands. "I'll see you tomorrow." Seraphina said, kissing him gently on the cheek. With then she smiled at him, and then headed home.
    Seraphina went through the passages and up stairs into the Library. Lucky for her, no one had been around to check on her. She went into her room, changed and then lied on her bed. "That was the first time Shane has taken my hand." She said, almost like she could still feel the warmth of his hand. Of course, she had made first moves many times. But when he did it, knowing how shy he was, it was something different. Seraphina was smiling like an idiot, so she had to calm down before she was able to settle. She finally fell asleep.

    JULIUS laughed and shook his head at her. ⌈ Ah no, what I do isn't anything exciting really. ⌋ Julius said before crossing his arms.

    That's too bad, ⌋ she replied.

    I'm a professor at the fancy university named Fortissimo...Ive been one for I guess two years or so. ⌋ he said. Julius was a teacher at Fortissimo? That was something. Holding his drink, Julius looked down at it as the ice began to spin. ⌈ Before that...I was in the armed forces, ⌋ he said. She bit her lip. He was in the armed forces? That was pretty hot. He was an experienced fighter. He placed his hand over his eye patch covered eye and just stared down at his drink. Ah. He must have lost his eye during a battle. There was a soft smile on her face. It must have been a pretty emotional memory. Suddenly his eye widened and he turned his attention back over to Lennox. ⌈ Ah right, so..er...yeah I'm a professor at Fortissimo...no booty stealing or anything of the sort... ⌋ Julius said with a smile before finishing his drink and getting himself another drink.

    Lennox patted Julius on the knee and leaned on the bar, looking up at him fondly. ⌈ I'm sorry things didn't go well for ya in the service. ⌋ It wasn't too hard to piece together, and she didn't want to push it if it made him upset. This was a fun night, after all. She snapped her fingers together and pointed at him before picking up her new drink. ⌈ Ya' know, it's a small world. I can't believe you teach at that snob music school. My brother teaches there too, 'cept he's like a history teacher or somethin' in the high school. Do the university and the high school mix much? You might know 'em. His name's Erik, Erik Winst.

    She smiled up at him at took a drink. There was a change in his face and Lennox cocked her head to the side. ⌈ Did I say something wrong?

    As he watched Seraphina leave, Shane stepped back into the house and gave of a small sigh. That whole thing had left him both relived and tired. though it wasn't over just yet. Now he had to answer a question from his dad.
    "A French girl eh." There was a playful grin on his face as he gently nudge his arm with his elbow before walking off. Typical dad, but that was one of his good qualities. Since that was over and there was nothing else to take care of, Shane headed back to his room.
    Before he went to sleep, he couldn't help but have a few stray thought on Seraphina. Now that both of them had met each others parents, what exactly was next. Since his mind was tired he couldn't think of anything, but maybe something would come up later. For now, he closed his eyes and drifted to sleep.

    The young gentleman had continued to carry out through his day like it was to be expected. He sat around the house merely completing his work and simply eating not the healthiest of nourishment. Nevertheless he perceived and completed the assignments that had been presented before him with relative ease. With that done he lounged about his abode and simply wasted the day away.

    Television was exceptionally proficient at this task. He merely watched the news, which really only depressed him, and watched programs that existed solely for comedy. He may be a gentleman, but gentlemen do like their funnies. Eventually Mother came home from her errands, pleased to see the young sir seated at home rather out and about, and the family had dinner.

    With dinner out of the way, the young gentleman had dismissed himself and had decided to go to bed at that time. Despite doing nothing he felt rather tired. Must have just been one of those kinds of days. With nothing more to do he simply lied down in his bed and drifted off into sweet sleep.

    The memory still lingered a bit in his mind, but he felt her hand touch his knee and he stared down at her as she apologized to him about his time. He had said nothing about his time there, but then again it really wasn't hard to find out due to the eyepatch. He was quite taken back by her sudden kind words, but he merely smiled back softly in return, having her around just felt so nice. She was just a fun person and anything negative just etched away...hell he had totally forgotten about that pink haired girl and how much she annoyed him.

    She began to talk again and like usual he continued to listen, but what she said next was quite shocking. At first when she began to talk about her brother he began thinking back to the other teachers, wondering just who it was that she was related to. There was something familiar about her, but Julius just couldn't put his finger on it. She continued with what she said and once she finished what she said he froze.

    She asked what was wrong, but Julius was still shocked to hear this news and the words just passed by him "Your..." Julius began to mutter before pointing his finger at her "YOUR ERIK'S SISTER?!" Julius yelled before he once again fell off his stool only this time at a harder force. The pain from yesterday's Extreme Basketball surged across his body and Julius groaned as he laid on the ground "Urrrg...daaaaamn girl your just filled with surprises" Julius said with another groan.

    Lilly talked to Mackenzie for quite a while before she had powered down the computer, then she decided to turn on her console and played her FPS game on Campaign mode because her team was not playing that night. All of them weren't in Percival country, so while she was home, all of them were busy, out and about... out of their houses.
    Lilly stopped Campaign mode and squirmed uncontrollably in her chair as she looked outside, she wanted to bad to be out there, but couldn't be with her grounding. Lilly heard her mother call her down for dinner, so she obliged and went downstairs and sat at the dinner table.
    At the table sat all but one member of her family, her brother. Derek decided to go out for college visits the week before they quarantined, so he was stuck outside. He was having a blast though, staying at their cousin's house for a while. He kept checking in luckily, and Lilly missed him.
    Lilly wasn't the youngest kid though, luckily she had her little brothers Aaron and Jack , who both weren't twins but acted and looked like they were. This unfortunately made Lilly the middle child, but at least she didn't feel like it. Probably because she dismissed Suzie as her sister. It was kind of sad.
    She finished eating dinner and one of her younger brothers followed her asking her if he could play her FPS game, Wumbology, with her. But she said not tonight, gave him a pet on the head, and then hid back in her room. She played the game until around 9, where she decided to head to bed early, because she had nothing better to do. She got changed and then cracked the window open a bit to get some outside air in her room.
    She then climbed into bed, and fell asleep.

    JULIUS justed stared at her with this frozen expression. It was strange to say the least. ⌈ You're... ⌋ he began to mutter before pointing his finger at her, ⌈ YOU'RE ERIK'S SISTER?! ⌋ Julius yelled before he once again fell off his stool.

    Lennox was rather taken aback by the outburst. ⌈ I take it ya' know my brother. ⌋ It was less of a question and more of a statement. Julius's shocked expression and outburst made it pretty plain to see that they probably knew one another well.

    Julius groaned as he laid on the ground, ⌈ Urrrg...daaaaamn girl you're just filled with surprises. ⌋ he said with another groan.

    She slid off the barstool and knelt down beside Julius. Lennox patted him lightly on the cheek. ⌈ Your outburst is amusing. I take it my familial relations are a bit of a turn off. Erik is a pretty big stick in the mud.

    Heh, the two of you are quite different thats for sure. ⌋ Julius said sitting up before turning to face her, ⌈ Erik's always a calm guy, but he's an interesting guy to drink with... ⌋ He crossed his arms. ⌈ Man...this'll be awkward...

    A mischievous grin tugged at the corners of her lips. ⌈ What will be awkward exactly? ⌋ Lennox leaned in, giving a Julius a kiss on the cheek before helping him to his feet.

    Julius looked flabbergasted as he was helped up to his feet. ⌈ I...er... ⌋ Julius began to say, at a total loss for words.

    Lennox had to resist the urge to laugh. It was kinda cute how shocked she kept making him. At this rate, he looked like he might go into cardiac arrest or something. She threw a few more bills down on the counter and picked up her wallet and phone. ⌈ I'll catch ya' later Julius. It's been fun. I'll definitely be seeing you around. ⌋ Lennox winked at him before walking out of the bar.

    She pulled her leather jacket out of the bag strapped to her bike, along with her pants. She quickly slipped them on and straddled the motorcycle, thankful for the short distance back to her brother's place. Lennox wasn't really fit to be steering her bike right now, but she could manage well enough. It didn't take her long to get home and she stumbled her way up to Erik's apartment. The door was unlocked for her so she wouldn't have to go beaten the thing down -- too bad. Lennox locked the deadbolt behind herself and stumbled her way to the couch. She reached for a blanket and collapsed on the leather sofa. Today had been interesting. Lennox shimmied out of her pants and curled up in the blanket before falling asleep.

    And so Julius stood there and watched Lennox leave with his eye twitching as he watched on. "She...just loves messing with me..." Julius said softly and he closed his eyes and let out a deep sigh before taking a seat back at the bar. "This...might not turn out so well..." Julius said with a groan before taking his drink and swallowing it down. He really had no idea how Erik would react to what happened today and in the future.

    "Wait...future?" Julius muttered quietly has he rose his hand over the cheek that had been kissed and raised his eyebrow. Surely this was only a single encounter thing?...no he couldn't say such a thing. The two of them really hit it off and he could tell they were sure to meet again, but... "Urrgg...this...just hurts my head" Julius said holding his head.

    With that he merely paid off what was owed and off out of the bar. Luckily he lived close so all he had to do was just walk home. After a while of walking down the cool streets he let out a sigh and just accepted it all. Whatever was to come was to come, his whole life was a bizarre adventure so this honestly was nothing really new. He made it home and after locking the door he collapsed on his bed and drifted off to sleep.

    could you do it? betray yourself for love?

    Feall awoke to the sound of Ava getting ready for the day, he heard his parents in the kitchen cooking breakfast. He thought back to the conversation the day before (OOC: Shush, we're pretending this was yesterday). He couldn't believe he and Ava actually discussed using Cupid's Brew on one another.

    He stepped out of his room and into their shared bathroom down the hall where Ava was busy brushing her hair. Leaning up against the door frame as she smoothed out her thick brown locks, Feall looked at her for a moment. She noticed him in the mirror and turned around as she continued to brush her hair. Feall smiled "Good morning!". Ava tilted her head and gave a faint smile back before turning back to the mirror. "Good morning." she replied.

    Feall was silent for a moment as he fumbled with his hands in the pockets of his flannel pajama pants. "So, about what we talked about yesterday...I, did you really want to-" Feall was interrupted by his mother calling for breakfast. "Ah, I guess it'll have to wait, see you at the table." Feall turned and headed down the hall toward the dining room, waving his hand as if to bid her farewell. As Ava saw him head off in the mirror, she turned to watch him leave as she pinned up her hair.

    note: this post was written a bit ago, posting now because deadline. i also cut out A LOT of the post. like this is 1/4 of the post in it's entirety. i'll post the rest later. idk what the date is so guessing.


    Getting passed the border was less tedious than she thought it would be. The moment Joey muttered the name Trenton Sheffield, it was an effortless journey. Noëlle had never been treated with such respect before. It made her uncomfortable, but she could tell by her mother's bright, wide eyes and tender smile that Joey's sudden influence was only further cementing their romance. It made her physically sick to her stomach. How could she smile? How could she look at him like that, even? Bryan - her son - was dead. He was dead. Dead, dead, dead, dead, dead, dead, dead ...

    She hadn't expected to be in the car for nearly as long as they were. At some point, she pulled out one of Bryan's stuffed animals - an elephant - and snuggled it in the back seat, twisting herself to sit against one of the backdoors. They left Percival and before she could really register it they had left the state. Night fell and she was growing a bit bored with her snuggling and tuning in and out of the radio.She finally pulled out her phone and sighed to herself at the arrival of an expected message. She chewed nervously on her bottom lip as her turquoise eyes scanned over the text.

    Hey Noelle, hope your doing okay over there!

    I hear from Julius that you were leaving town. I'm disappointed I never got to say goodbye in person, but hey...you must have your reasons and I'm just glad you'll be able to at least get out of this diseased town.

    Once all this epidemic nonsense comes to an end I hope we'll be able to hang out again!

    If you need anybody to talk to you know who to call, we're friends after all.


    One deep, shaky breath later;

    I'm sorry for not telling you sooner, Jonathan. You're such a good friend, but even with how understanding you've been ... I couldn't even work up enough courage to let you know I was going. I didn't want to see you before I left. I'm sorry for being such a coward.

    I don't know.

    I can't help but wonder what's / wrong / with you for sticking around me so often and looking after me.

    Good luck with things. ... Don't die. Look out for Professor for me, too.

    ... I'll miss you.

    The hot water of the bath her mother had encouraged her to take burned at her skin and made her wince as she immersed herself. In a way, it was refreshing. Her emotions had been a bit muted recently, but at least physically she felt everything the way she was meant to. She ran her nails slowly along her arms and sank further into the tub, until her chin touched the steaming water and the ends of her hair fanned out to her sides.

    The bathroom was just as clean and put together as the rest of the cottage they were staying in. It had one main floor, with a basement, two bathrooms and two bedrooms. That's all there was ... From what she could tell, at least. It was surrounded by a beautiful garden and forestry she hadn't been planning to explore.

    For the first day, she spent most of her time in her assigned room reading and sleeping. There was cable, but no TVs in the rooms. She would have to go out to the living room, which wasn't appealing to her in the slightest. Dinner was had in silence and she was off to sleep as soon as her body would allow her to.

    On the second day, Mrs. Chambers decided to try and pull her daughter out of her voluntary isolation. They went outside into the garden and watered the plants and flowers like Mr. Sheffield had asked them to. Then, they had lunch together with Joey and watched some terrible movie together.

    After her bath, they were supposed to partake in some cranberry tea together. Mrs. Chambers had offered to make some and Noëlle couldn't find the words to reject it. At this point, she was seriously considering slipping further into the water and taking a long, deep, cleansing breath of H2O.

    She shook the thought off and wiggled her toes under the water, relaxing her muscles and leaning her head back.

    Estelle slowly opened her eyes. She felt very warm, realizing she was covered in a very large blanket. "I must have... fallen asleep.." Estelle said. "I hope she-I hope Alex slept alright " Estelle said. "I don't want to go back home just yet." Estelle said.
    She got up quickly, thinking Alex had maybe gone into the other room. She fixed herself up, and then sat out in the living room for a while, wondering if she should make breakfast for them both, though she figured that He would want to do it all himself.

    Cel woke up, her head hurting and feeling a little bit dizzy. She headed out of her room, realizing that she had slept in. She went downstairs. She got herself breakfast and put toast in the toaster. "I wonder if the package will come today."She said, lying back on the chair for a moment.
    She opened her eyes, realizing that it had been about 10 minutes. The smoke alarm was blazing. She ran over to the toaster, and let the smoke out, along with a chunk of black. "Fuck me." She said to herself, then proceeding to turn everything off, and grab a bowl of Lucky Charms instead

    Seraphina woke up, rubbing her eyes slightly. "Ah I feel sick" Seraphina told said to herself, her stomach feeling a bit odd.. "I'd better go eat something" She whispered to herself. "I'm so tired" She thought, sitting down in the living room beside him."I'll live though"
    "Good Morning" Seraphina said, walking into the dining room. She ate by herself that morning, and then went back upstairs to lie down. She felt a bit better, but there were some days when all you could do, was sit around and think about your life. "Until Shane texts me..." She thought, then deciding to shut her eyes, her phone close to her.
