I didn't expect V to embarrass herself like that, but what was I to expect? It had been a month since we'd even seen each other's face or gotten in contact with one another. I took a sip of my tea and glared at the doorway she had used as an exit. "Hm?" I felt a light poke on my shoulder and turned to give notice to my lover. Her eyes sparkled in excitement as she stroked my cheek ever so gently, her cold fingers somewhat pleasing. "Are you alright, sweetie?" she whispered with a slightly confused tone. I rubbed the back of my neck sheepishly and shrugged, standing up. I stretched and muttered, "I'm great, dear. I'm going check on Veronica if you don't mind. Just wait here for me please..." I walked upon the hard tile floor and came across a hall. To me left lied a door, probably leading to a bathroom, and to my right must've been her room. I could here some crying coming from my right, so of course, I walked up to the door. It didn't seem too thick, so I could eavesdrop if I needed to. A gust of cold wind hit me and inhaled deeply as my body stiffened up. "Go sit back down...Let her drown in those tears of unknown pain." The voice was so familiar and so...evil. I ignored it and pressed my ear against the door, trying not to put to much pressure on it.

I took my shoes off and pulled out my phone. It had been undamaged, luckily. I scrolled through the texts and missed calls. "Hm?" My heartbeat slowed sped up as I found a new picture sent from my boyfriend. It was of me in a sundress on his back. We were both so happy on that day. We had a picnic with some strawberries and a few sandwiches. I was so happy to see him smile. But that was a few months ago. I hated pointing out, but he changed. I shook my head, telling myself to get it off my mind. I set the picture as my background and stared at his smile. "I-I don't want that smile to be just a memory..."

"I knew that Veronica wasn't dumb enough to go to her room to hang herself for us," a voice similar to the one before said to me in a disgusted tone. I had a strong urge to back away from the door, but that would make my curiosity grow even more. I let out a quiet sigh and tried listening closer. "...a whole month since we'd seen each other and he has no gift, no hugs, or anything. He'll probably just leave again." There was no figuring out who it was that she was talking to. Maybe on the phone or through a hole in the wall. The breathing in her room stopped abruptly, and so did mine. Just as suddenly, the door slammed open, and I fell upon the carpeted floor, which was no better than the tiles; only softer. Veronica crouched down and tilted her head, whispering. "You're such a jerk...You come here with some dumb girl and you say you'll just spend the night like I'm your mom or something." I blinked hard and moved my head so that I was looking at her panties under her oversized sweater. "My apologies, but can you...?" She raised an eyebrow and crossed her arms in disappointment, standing up. "Can I what?" she asked with an attitude, causing me to rethink the whole situation. Maybe she was angry with herself, but even so, I always answered her calls with curses and farewells. "Nice undies," I smirked and whispered as she rests her foot on the side of my head. "They must be red from your period..." I couldn't see her face, but I felt her cold glare. "Go get your girlfriend so we can get her dressed up...You need to get out of that school uniform." My head kinda hurt, but I managed to catch what Veronica said. She let out a soft sigh and helped me up as I began rubbing my head. I walked over to peek in on my accomplice. "Hey there," I said to her calmly, V not yet in sight. I turned back to see that she was back in her room looking in her closet. The walls were so blank and the room seemed so empty compared to the kitchen and living room. "Eh?!" She looked up in surprise and hugged her knees to her chest. She had been scrolling through her phone, I think. "Did I surprise you? The house isn't that big, really.." I rubbed the back of my neck and went to sit in front of her. She was wearing some pink socks with horses on them. "Cute socks, but they aren't as cute as you!" I laughed and poked her nose, her face lighting up in embarrassment. "M-Meanie," she muttered, covering her face with her hands. "Making me blush..." I smiled brightly and chuckled. She looked up with a smirk and whispered something, but I was too busy laughing to hear.

That butthead! Making me blush and all. I heard him chuckling and peeked at him with a brief moment of relief. "Just like the photo."His smile was so soothing and calming. It made me so happy!
