Eva felt the night of partying finally catching up to her as she seemed to drag her feet through her home. The stairs leading to the second floor came off as daunting, and she ended up leaving her violin next to the stairs rather than carry it with her. Her arms were tired, her legs were tired, her head was pounding...but it was worth it. It really was. She just needed some sleep. Especially since she would likely need some energy later, whenever Arthur would decide to come over. Entering her room, she peeled off her dress, pulling on a black tank top and throwing herself onto her bed. The sheets smelled a little like soap and lilac; she figured Marshall must have washed them for her. Just as she felt that she was about ready to pass out, she heard the front door open. Sitting up, she frowned as she went to her bedroom door. That's weird, she thought she'd be alone all day. To her surprise, it was Arthur's voice that called out to her. He was here? Wait, did he message her? Grabbing her phone, she didn't see any messages, though she panicked slightly. She wasn't expecting him to get here so fast! Or at the very least, she figured he'd let her know when he was coming! Scrambling, she pulled out one of the drawers to her dresser and grabbed the first skirt she found along with a pair of socks. Pulling her socks, she scowled as she realized they were over the knee, so she ended up wasting some time trying to get them right. Crap, she hadn't responded to him. "[color=pink]I-I'll be right there--AH![/color]" She slipped on her rug, grabbing her bed to prevent her from falling. Stay calm, stay calm! Why was she still so nervous like this?! Looking in the mirror, she decided to leave her hair up since she was still hot from outside. After managing to get both socks and her skirt on, she ran to the stairs, speeding down them and spotting Arthur. His hair was tied up, making it so that his face was fully revealed, and his outfit looked...well, fine, but it looked a little warm for the weather. He looked so cool. And he was in her house! "[color=pink]S-Sorry, I didn't think you'd get here so fast,[/color]" She apologized, slightly huffing as she reached the bottom. She jumped slightly as the home phone rang. "[color=pink]Um, you can take off your jacket if you want, give me just a sec,[/color]" She said, walking over and picking it up. "[color=pink]Grant residence, Eva speaking...no, Marshall's working right now, he needed to cover someone...[/color]" Her voice was a little shaky, but she willed it to be steady as she took down the message for Marshall. After hanging up, she turned back to Arthur, trying to regain her composure as she smoothed her skirt out. Her lack of sleep was making it really hard to think right now, but she [I]did[/I] invite him over, and he came, so she was happy. [hr] [I][color=teal]If you still have that necklace I gave you, if you are willing to forgive me, and just trust me to explain everything more, wear it next time I see you.[/color][/I] Her phone was repeatedly buzzing, showing several missed calls and messages. Likely it was poor Helene wondering where the hell she went with her car. Letting out a sigh, she silenced her ringer for the moment. Alyssa didn't bother looking around, the noise of the people around her barely reaching her. He'd show up, knowing him he'd drop everything and come running. He always did. It was a sweet thought, but really, since last night she couldn't stop thinking about what Jacob had said. There was more to it, he claimed. Should she believe him? Would she get the whole story or was he just getting her hopes up again? And why [I]did[/I] she get her hopes up again? The whirlwind of emotions she was going through was a little more than she could handle. But at the very least some sort of explanation was due. It was long overdue, really, but she would take what she could get. And sure enough, she spotted Jacob from a distance. Without bothering to wait for him, Alyssa chose to approach him first, the ruby necklace still wrapped around her hand. "[color=orange]I want the whole truth, Jacob,[/color]" She told him. "[color=orange]Everything.[/color]" [center][img]https://i1.wp.com/wordmewrite.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/flowerDivider.png[/img][/center]
