Atropos glanced back at his painting, almost as if it was in a new light. He reached his hand out like he was about to flip it once again, but he caught himself. While he couldn'y stand sitting still in his room, Atropos didn't really feel like going outside or even leaving his room for that matter. Sighing, he fell backwards onto his messy bed. On the nightstand to his left was a framed photo of him, Oddessa, and Victoria. Victoria was to the right, smiling sweetly. Atropos was in the middle with his arms thrown around both Victoria's and Oddessa's shoulders, his fingers forming the peace sign. On the left was Oddessa, looking somewhat irritated, but trying to smile nontheless. I've been with them for so long... he thought sadly. After all these years, we still keep secrets..

Oddessa peered out of the window, measuring the distance in her mind.
I won't break any bones.
She laughed at her thought and threw herself out of the window. Wind whipped around her (good thing she was wearing jeans) as she plummeted towards the ground. She landed softly on her feet and collided with someone.
"Oh I'm sorry." she looked up at the guy. It was the same dude from earlier.

Darius got up. This was the second time he was knocked down today.........and it was by the same person. He didn't care. To everyone else he was a low life so no one respected him.
"Did....did you just jump out that window?" Darius asked in a shocked but interested tone.

Oddessa looked at him for a long moment before answering. She was formulating what to say in her head.
"If I had, wouldn't I be dead?" she evaded his question.

Darius began to think. I know for a fact there was no one behind me. It wasn't worth getting to deep into.
"That's true....but....never mind." he ended it. "What exactly are you doing out here this late?" he never sees anyone at this time of night. Not even once since he left home.

"What are you doing out this late?"
Oddessa was starting to enjoy this evading thing.

Seeing what Oddessa left behind, Atropos jumped up and grabbed it. This was the perfect time to get his mind off some touchy subjects. "Hey Oddessa! You forgot your purse!!!" He yelled after throwing the window open. He could see her talking to that weirdo in the back alley. Without waiting for a response, Atropos flung the girly bag at Oddessa.

"Well I wander the streets since I do not have anywhere else to go." Darius said before looking up. He saw that guy from earlier. He thought about walking away because he didn't know if it was a good idea to keep talking to the girl. He stayed anyway.
"I kinda.....ran away from home about a year ago. So now I wander the streets." He turned the subject back to her, "So why are you out this late when you have a place to stay." he pointed at the building.

Oddessa caught the purse with one hand.
"Thanks A!" she shouted up at him.
She looked at the guy, man was he persistant.
"What a girl can't be out this late at night? I wanted to take a walk, is that a crime? By the way, what's your name?"

"No it's not a crime. I mean I never see anyone out this late. Not once in the year that I've been away from home." he felt like he did something wrong by asking. "I'm Darius. What's yours?"
He kept yawning. He really needed that coffee......or a place that he could sleep for the rest of the night.

Atropos waved and shut the window, but not completely. He had a sudden urge to eavesdrop. Before he kneeled down to the small gap between the window and the sill, however, Atropos couldn't help but chuckle to himself. I wonder if Oddessa will freak out when she sees that huge freakin' spider I put in her purse... This was the best and one of the only ways he knew how to cheer up.

"I'm Oddessa." She smiled.
She started walking when she felt something crawling on her hand. She looked down and saw a giant Black Widow making its way up her sleeve. She let out a VERY high pitched scream and shook herself out of her sweater. She jumped and stomped on it until she was sure the spider was dead, then folded her arms over her chest. She was now freezing and she was pissed.

"I'm going to go see if the coffee shop is open so I won't pass out from lack of sleep. You're welcome to join." Darius said before he jumped out of his skin from the scream. "Well, I'm sure I won't need a coffee after that." he said jokingly as he laughed.

Right after she introduced herself to this Darius character, Atropos heard Oddessa let out a very girly scream. He started to laugh, immediately feeling tears building up in his eyes. Then he heard the stomping. Atropos suddenly stopped laughing. He threw the window open with so much force that the entire pane of glass shattered. Atropos dove out the now broken window, gracefully flipped twice, and landed lightly on the ground. "What are you doing!?" he shouted at Oddessa. He ran at her, shoving Darius out of the way. "It's not like she was going to bite you or anything, Clotho knows better than that!" Atropos was furious, and this didn't happen often.

"Well, maybe you should not have put her in my ******** bag!!!"
Oddessa's hand were at her side, balled into fist.
