"Yeah." Strength returned, the lame, one word sentence trying to say, "I missed you too". The smile that held onto his face slipped as his eyes diverted back to the vacant bed. The boy really was truly glad her father was alright. An orphan - that's what he was, even when he realized he had never actually used the word before. The last thing he wanted was for his roommate to have the same social label. Strength's breathing pattern experiences a slight change of pace as he was getting lost in his thoughts, the lightning, the storm. . .
Now's not the time for that. A small voice nagged him in the back of his head. He sighed, imagining he was exhaling the thoughts themselves. There were some major, hidden issues in the depths of his mind, but instead of going through them, the blonde just fidgeted with a chain on his neck. At least she's still got her dad. . . . wait a second, What about her mom? Strength took a second or two to consider if this might be too personal, especially now that they seemed to be back where they had started, relationship-wise.
Things seemed, as the adolescent would put it, "Pretty ******** about now" anyway, so he may as well go for it. Misteor realized he was still standing awkwardly in the same spot from the beginning of their conversation (could you call the minimal-word-exchange that?) and took the few steps before flopping down on the couch. His voice came out more clear this time, though he still wasn't looking the girl in the eyes. How chivalrous. "What about your mum?" I’ll build up a house, I’ll build up an army

What was that? What did it mean? She had no idea anymore, she didn't know what it was supposed to be or what a 'mum' did. "I don't have one." was all she could even dare to say, the last time she even spoke about "the monster" was to the therapists, after that, she stopped. 'The Monster' had no way to contact her anymore, her father had restraining orders held against her, any form of contact and she'd be violating it.
fillerfillerfillerfiller ╰☆╮ Vegas' emotions were back to normal, well, what used to be normal around Strength before she left. "Hey, want me to buy us something to eat and go reek havoc in this place?" she suggested, she was there, problems explained and relationship back to normal, now she had nothing to do besides hang around with Strength and try not to violate his personal space by hugging him. He didn't seem like the hug type of person.

Strength craned his neck to look at the girl who didn't seem to comprehend possibly the most spoken word in the language. Something was telling him that she probably needed help, or maybe a good slap to kick her senses back in. ((OOC: That was for you, Oli! 8D)) He knew she had some issues with her mother, but now. . . ?
Whatever, the boy let that drop for the time being. But seriously, what was with this mood swing? In all honestly, Strength was kind of creeped out. Three words slithered into his mind like a dark snake, Who is this? Of course, he realized it was dramatic sounding, but this pinkette was different from the one he knew before. "Err, are you sure? You seem kind of. . . out of it." Maybe a normal person would have realized Vegas could take this badly, but Strength was anything if blunt. I’ll build up a house, I’ll build up an army

She was still the same, always playing cruel jokes on people, even the ones she loved."I'm kidding, I have trauma from seeing my dad like that, it happens whenever some refers to ... you know ... female parents. It's like a phobia." it was all the truth again, if anyone said that word, or a synonym for it, she would turn into a void of emotions and try to act normal again. She had behaviour therapy and now the counsellor was helping her.
╰☆╮ For some odd reason, Vegas could find it hard to be serious when she had to be serious around her little group of friends, which had disbanded besides her and Strength. "I'm sorry, I'm hoping it'll be gone soon but anyway, what about it? We can hang out, just us." she tried to smile again, it was more like a ghost of a smile than a real one.

Strength looked at the girl with concern, not sure how much of the joke was, well, a joke. It was unsaid, but had Strength been told she was seeing someone, he may have suggested that she make a few extra visits. "Oh, sorry. I'll, uhh, try to avoid it then." He responded cooly, doing his usually hair-ruffle with his hand absentmindedly.
The boy thought about the suggestion as if it was a question. He looked away from Vegas so the back of his head could rest comfortably on the couch's armrest. His eyes traced the odd crevices on the ceiling. Why not? Why not? This unstable girl could do something completely unpredictable that could lead to who knows what. But did this kid care? No, it was like he was returning to his usual life of "What'll happen next? Better question: What just happened?" "Yeah, sounds good." The small, hint of a smile returned.
The blonde pulled himself up into a sitting position, putting his weight on his elbows, which rested on his knees. "So, you mentioned food?" I’ll build up a house, I’ll build up an army

"I'm taking you out and I'm paying, then we can go hang around somewhere or be beach bums." she was normal, she was the Vegas that wanted to pursue Strength romantically but denied it, the girl who liked to hang around and be lazy. "Where do you want to go? I'm up for anything." she picked herself up off of her bed and began unpacking her carry on, carefully picking something up out of it and placing it on the little side table. She smiled ever so softly at the picture of her hugging her dad, both of them wearing grins, you could see that the wind was blowing because of the pinkette's silky locks, she wore a pair of shorts with a bikini top and a pair of flip flops that matched her hair; her dad didn't wear beach clothing.
fillerfillerfillerfiller ╰☆╮ Vegas put her neatly folded clothes - folded by her dad - into the drawer, her ruby eyes didn't notice the leopard bra that fell out of her stuff and shamelessly onto the floor. She hummed and put her clothing away, waiting for a response from her blonde friend, hopefully potential boyfriend, and that's when she turned around and noticed it. There it was, her bra, spotted and crystal clear, she didn't run for it. She froze, walked, picked it up and put it under her bed. "I'm too lazy," she said coolly, trying to seem unaffected, but a blush as pink as her hair filled her cheeks. 'Smooth...'

  ｡ ⊱ It's been such a long time. . . I'm scared. It's been exactly a year. An entire year. I can't show my face to them!
Mi stood there, in front of the door, a nervous wreck not knowing what to do.
She was debating on whether or not she should open the door or leave at that moment.
A decision was made quickly, and Mi had entered the room to find Strength and Vegas together.
"Ah! S-sorry. . . I interrupted. . ." she stuttered and tried to scramble out of the room. ⊰ ｡ † • ℓet's share тhe ρain тogether • †

Long deleted story short:
- Strength missed Vegas a lot while she was gone
- He laughed to himself when he saw the bra and thought it was funny that Vegas tried to cover it up.
- Saw Mi come in
- Realized how suspicious him and Vegas alone looked with a lone bra on the floor.
The boy awkwardly looked at his roommate. "Hey, welcome back." I’ll build up a house, I’ll build up an army

((OOC: I typed 3 paragraphs. Pressed Preview. Gaia logged me out, therefore all the work was gone, and I don't feel like typing it again because I'm a lazy a** that's pissed-off.
Here's a nice sentence from the original:
He wondered if it would be considered unmanly to admit that after one particularly horrid day, he returned to the dorm to sit alone, in the dark, in a corner, with his head between his knees, wishing that someone - no - she would come back.
it was something like that. I liked it c: Goes with the first bullet, btw.))

｡ ⊱ "Did you two have sex or something?" she said jokingly, grinning at the most.
What a rude awakening. After a year she finds herself between an awkward situation.
An awkward situation with her two closest friends.
Vegas was attempting to hide her racy lingerie, and Strength. . . Well, Strength looked as moody as ever. ⊰ ｡ † • ℓet's share тhe ρain тogether • †

So unreliable. She reminisced about the time it was visible through her tank top when she was playing mini golf with her dad. She hated it, she didn't even know why she brought it. "Wait, what? No, what. No." she managed to sound like a complete and utter fool.Now she was wondering what Strength thought and whether or not Strength would mind having Mi come along, she had souvenirs from the beautiful island for both of them and random pictures of her and her dad during his recovery month, she felt like showing him off to the world.
fillerfillerfillerfiller ╰☆╮ "Uhm, I was going to buy us food, you want to tag along? We have some catching up to do," Vegas mentioned, wondering whether or not she should change into something less beach-bum like, she decided to forget about it and stick with her plain white tanktop, high waisted denim shorts and flip flops, she was lazy and she thought she looked fantastic. She didn't give a rat's a** about it.

｡ ⊱ At that moment, Mi had realized something.
She realized that Vegas and Strength had a whole year to grow distant from her. To lose their friendship, but obviously, Vegas hadn't forgotten. Mi didn't have much of anything with her, so she dug around an old drawer and found some loose change - just in case.
"Well, I'm up for it. I'd definitely like to spend some time with you again."
A little sadness reached her words, but most were out of joy. She looked forward to eating out with them.
The only thing is, she hoped Vegas wasn't planning on going to Subway. ⊰ ｡ † • ℓet's share тhe ρain тogether • †
