fiona got out of the bed and towards the door. “thanks for trying, zach.” she said quietly, placing her hand on the doorknob. “you can take the bed now.”

[lupins]

"always here to help. even though i'm super terrible at it." zach muttered, debating whether to skip the day himself. after finally deciding on a yes, he lazily stood up and sat at the foot of his bed.

[ptolemaea]

fiona opened the door. “goodnight.” she said quietly. she didn’t want to exit just yet. she sighed, fumbling with the necklace around her neck. she never knew where it had come from. “zach, do you know about this necklace?” she asked, holding it out so he could see. she wondered if he was the one to have given it to her.

[lupins]

zach looked up as she mentioned a necklace, not any necklace. a necklace he remembered giving her as a late birthday present, the night of the crash. he didn't want to lie to her, but didn't want to bring any bad memories back to her. "no. i don't know anything about it, maybe your parents gave it to you." he lied, mumbling half of it.

[ptolemaea]

fiona narrowed her eyes. “fine, sure, whatever. except for that they don’t want me to have it!” she stated, exiting the room. she went into her room and grabbed her purse. she didn’t know what to do. maybe she’d just walk around campus, get an early breakfast.

[lupins]

zach sighed and leaned against the wall. he had just gotten the old fiona back, and now it felt as if he pushed her away again. somehow this always happened. turning his attention back to his phone, he gave a frustrated groan. why couldn't he focus on anything?

[ptolemaea]

fiona dropped her bag on the ground and went to her room, fumbling with the necklace. that’s when it opened. it was a locket? inside was a picture of her... and zack. she burst through his door. “explain this, then.”

[lupins]

zach looked up with a confused expression. then seeing that she had found the photo of them in the locket, he sighed. straightening his position, he looked at her. "i gave you the locket, a late birthday present. the night of the crash." he mumbled, quietly. he really didn't want to tell her that, but, unfortunately, he just did.

[ptolemaea]

fiona nodded, clutching the locket. “thank you for telling me.” she said quietly. she really wanted to hug him, but didn’t. she sat next to him. “makes sense, makes sense.”

[lupins]

zach raised an eyebrow, surprised she didn't lash out at him. he gave a small nod, watching as she sat next to him. his gaze turned to the floor as she spoke. "yeah. i suppose." he murmured.
