The entire house had awoken feeling groggy. It was as if something was amiss. Victoria had chalked it up to the weather at first. 'Nothing like a rainy day to dampen spirits,' she said. When her children gave her that whatever look, she went on to say it was the moon. 'People always act crazy when it's full,' she told them. They decided it was best to leave it at that, their mother after all had an excuse for everything.

Alex went to turn the lock of her window but stopped. The itch to roam was gone. She could not have cared less about making a break for it. The last good run she had had was with Berrit who for some reason she had not heard from in some time. Had something happened in the woods? She dismissed the thought. Her 'rent was probably just furious and had her under lock and key. She grabbed the lighter off her desk. As she continued to look out the window, she flicked the lighter open and closed.

Auden grabbed a pair of slacks and a white button up shirt. He had work at the café in less than an hour. It would not do him any good considering just last week he had made an a** of himself. He still thought that Sebastian deserved it. His sister deserved better than that jerk anyways. His thoughts had been confirm because Alison had not seen Sebastian since they came back from vacation. He half wondered when Xander would be coming back to shore.

Willow hummed an even melody as she glanced at her reflection. She hated mirrors but lately she could not stop staring. The mirror was a means for her to see the emptiness she felt. The last bit of information she had collected about her heart was that the thief had dumped it off at some curio shop. When she had asked around at the various curio shops, no one had such an item. Despite the negatives she felt from the loss of her heart, she tried to remain positive. She would find it.

Alison tied the apron and set out to make everyone breakfast. All she could do was count the seconds. She wondered if she had done something wrong during their vacation. Had she been too easy? Had he found someone else? She sighed and mentally scolded herself. Think other thoughts she told herself. Once again feeling that legs were nonsense, she contently floated about the kitchen. She knew she did not have a whole lot of time before Auden had to be at work.
