This was just about the most awkward and strange conversation Rory had ever had in his life. What did that last message mean? One moment Dashner was saying he didn't want Rory to choose between him and Marceline, and the next second he was basically shouting through gritted teeth that he refused to 'lose' Rory to a ghoul.
Yeah, Rory liked Marceline....maybe even likeliked...but-
"You know, you seem pretty, uh....perturbed right now. So maybe I'll just, uh....take off and, we can talk later."
Rory got a sinking feeling in the pit of his stomach as all of the talks with his mother came ringing back into his shiny ears. He really, really didn't want her to be right.
Rory reflected back into the mirror and gave Dashner a terse, awkward wave before running away.

"No Rory! Wait I-!"
Dashner was under the impression that he had upset his beastie, causing him to leave. It was to much to bear, he ran over to the bathroom to get a tissue as tears poured down his face. Looking over, again, at Ronan's bed, it reminded him of how much he also missed his roommate.
'I need to escape...' He thought. Then two words popped in his mind: Coffin Bean! There was always one drink there that always made him happier. So he took the box of tissues and headed out the door.

Marceline stared at the ceiling until the sun rose, burning her dried and weary eyes as it crept through her curtains. She hadn't slept all night, instead favoring tossing and turning, and constantly checking her iCoffin. She would have gladly stayed in bed for the rest of the day, but she had her obligations for the day.
Looking at herself in the mirror, she accepted that no amount of fussing would make her look any less tired, and exhaled heavily. She knew her makeup class today was going to be torture, as Mr. Hack didn't spare any sympathy for his Saturdays. On top of that, working until closing afterwards; her bones ached and felt heavier than usual. Today was going to be unbearable... She threw on somewhat presentable clothes and trudged out the door to school.

Melody slammed her doomitory door behind her, she had slammed it so hard that pictures in the room began to shake.
She stomped to her bed and fell onto the sheets, gripping them in anger. She screamed a scream so high into her pillow that, without the pillow, the entire schools windows would crack.
She screamed continually for what seemed like 5 consecutive minutes before she finally laid still on her bed as tears formed in her eyes and stained her pillow case. Doriana would never do something like that, even if she had a mean day.
Vanissha, Ronan, and Doriana were all acting so strange; and she felt as if Roswell was acting strange as well. She couldn't bear the thought of Roswell joining the circus and leaving her behind.
She cried in even harder in her pillow at the thought.

Forgetting about his transport capabilities Roswell ran after Melody, for fear she would try something dangerous with the circus, and they would wash her brain like the others. He was thankful when she ran into her room.
Then he heard her cry out a scream, "Ngh!" It was very painful to his sensitive ears!
He took a moment to revive himself then he knocked at her door.
*Knock Knock*
"Melody? It's Grey, Roswell." Why he continued to speak his name like that was anyone's guess. He was most likely nervous and forgot.
"Do you want to talk?"

Melody paused as she heard someone knocking on the door.
Knock
Knock
"Do you want to talk?" A voice rang from the other side of the door.
Melody lifted her head as she heard the familiar voice, Roswell.
She sat on her bed as she wiped the tears from her face, forgetting that her eyes were now a dull blue instead of a bright green due to her sadness.
"Just a second," Melody insisted as she quickly made sure there was no evidence of her tears. Okay, there was none, good.
"It's open," she informed him as she sat up straight on her bed, looking outside her window.

He opens the door, slllooowwly. finally entering looking around to see if the other ghouls were around? was this allowed? was he going to get in trouble? None of that mattered now that he saw Melody.
"Melody? Are you upset about something? You ran off so fast... I was so worried...." He didn't want to say why he was worried, but with everything going on at the circus. he was just glad she was safe.

"N-" she started, only realizing that her voice had cracked as she began talking.
She cleared her throat and started again, "No, no, I'm fine," she implied as she walked over to her guitars and began tuning them to various notes; she had to do something to make it seem like she wasn't upset.
"Why do you ask?" she asked as she tried to make sure her voice wouldn't crack again.

Roswell gives a small knowing smile, as he walks over to the water cooler, taking a little cup and filling it.
Walking to her he hands her the cup of water.
"This should help with hydration... " when she cried she gets dehydrated. he knew because he could always hear Lagoona cry over Gill or something his parents forced him to do. She even turned into a fresh water fish for him! Such a big change!
"Melody. You know you can talk to me. It's important that we do talk. Because texting still isn't my beast forte..."
He sat on her bed and faced her.
"Did you want to tell me something?" He looked into her eyes, they were blue. That's not right. Her natural eye color was green. Were they blue since she was sad? He raised an eyebrow, hoping she'd open up to him a little?

Melody gave a small gulp as he handed over the small cup of water; she put down her guitar down and turned to face Roswell before sitting on her bottom.
She took the offering with a grim smile, "Thank you," she mumbled as she took a sip. Ah, it did taste nice after her crying session.
She looked down at her cup as he sat on her bed and asked if she had something to say to him; she coughed nervously, "No, nothing at all..." her voice drifted.
She looked up at him in discomfort just to show a smile and that she was okay, but as she did, he gave her a strange look.
Was it her make up? No, she checked it before he entered.
Was it her outfit? No, it wasn't dirty before and it wasn't dirty now.
Was it her ey- oh no. She had completely forgotten to check her eye color before he had come in!
Now it was obvious that she was upset.
And because she was upset, there was only one thing left to do, and that was cry.
She looked at the floor as her nose sniffled and tears fell from her pale cheeks; she didn't care that she was crying in front of a boo, what she cared about was losing him.
And if she were to lose him...the thought burned Melody's mind as the tears flowed more and more from her cheeks.
"N-n-nothing's wrong...I'm fine.." she stuttered in between gasps and mournful exhales.

"Melody...?" He was so lost on what to do. gonk "Do you need more water?" He looked back at the fountain wandering if he should get her another cup... She would be dehydrated for sure at this rate!! Just then Her iCoffin went off, while MAX displayed a sound-off with the message from Gryff. Now he finally knew what to do. "Melody." He said softy, wiping her sadness away with his fingers. "Dry you're sad tears, beautiful siren, you'll need them for tears of joy."He got up, holding his hand out to her. "Come. It's time to save our friends!" ...Soon they were on their way to the Die-ner

Meme and Dashner wandered over to the common room, stopping at their dorms for books and supplies. Meme left a note in her empty room for her dorm mates letting them know where she'd be.
She handed over her notebook, which was full of an eclectic mix of paper scraps, metallic sheets, stickers and scribbles. "Let me know if you need help.. deciphering my writing.." She chortled self-consciously.

Ronan didn't bother with notes for dorm mates, he figured Dashner was busy anyway and besides, what did it matter where he was? Wasn't like the guy was going to wait up for him all worrying or something.
He traded notebooks, his own was meticulously neat and tidy, his writing was curly and wavey but it was very legible, except the points where he'd written corrections in the margins.
He flipped through Meme's notebook and marvelled at the chaos.
"How do you find anything in this?" He asked, turning over a particularly shiny foiled page and examining both sides critically, trying not to drop loose paper everywhere as he did so.

Roswell was starting to blush, turning an interesting shade of purple. after a few moments his face return back to that normal blue hue it always was. "Melody?" he held her hand in his softy, looking into her eyes. "I do plan on going. But only if you go with me."He smiled a little, hoping she'd say yes. He was starting to get nervous. "I've wanted to go to all the dances last year with you. But now we fianlly get the chance to be together.... Please say yes?"
