It had been by some miracle that Isla managed to get herself and Mariah into Madison's car. Fishing the much taller girl out of the swimming pool had been a feat in and of itself. And of course no one had helped her as she dragged her out of the beach house. Because why would they care about leaving behind the two newbies? In the end she'd teleported them both right into Madison's car, before promptly passing out too.

She woke with a start as the car came to a stop, blearily opening her eyes and rubbing the sleep out of them. 

[color=f26522]"Mm, we there already?"[/color] she slurred out, accent thick in her half awake state. She lifted her head off the person in the middle seat (whose name she couldn't remember right now) to look out the window. Nope, just a petrol station. Definitely not there. But this was good. She could get out, get some fresh air, a shit ton of snacks and some coffee. 

As she half fell out of the car, realisation hit her. She didn't have any money.

She groaned while looking around at the milling about coven members. The chances were pretty slim that any one of them would spare her even a cent. Maybe Mariah, but she was still dead asleep. She wasn't beyond stealing but she'd rather not with so many people around. What a predicament! Then she caught sight of a familiar blonde going round the corner with a cigarette in hand. Penny had come with them? Penny had come with them! She must have missed the memo while dragging her new friend into the car. 

Her relief was twofold. First, someone she could probably convince to lend her a little bit to buy some coffee. Second, someone who she actually trusted to not let her die. Aside from Mariah, who seemed even newer to this whole supernatural thing, she really didn't believe any if the other girls would help her. Not that she was the trusting sort in the first place, anyway. Between Penny, who was pretty powerful (from what Isla saw in Paradise), and Mariah, who seemed pretty willing to throw Isla over her shoulder and run, she had a [i]pretty[/i] good survival game plan. 

Isla half blinked, half walked, towards Penny while completely ignoring her surroundings. She was still groggy from sleep and all she could think about was getting coffee. Was blinking around a public place smart? Probably not. But the faster she got around that corner the better.

[color=f26522]“Heyyyy Penny,”[/color] she mumbled out, clearly only half awake as she practically slammed against the wall beside her in an attempt to lean on it. [color=f26522]“You wouldn’t happen to have spare change I can use for coffee or like coffee itself that would be really great, I am exhausted but also broke thanks to the whole stepping through a portal to a random country thing and I really don’t have the energy to steal.”[/color]

Her words grew more mumbled and nonsensical as she went on, oblivious to any bad mood Penny (or others) might be in.

Maya had the politeness (for once in her life) to call a thank you at Penny's back, before turning to glare at Emily. 

[color=FireBrick]“You know, I can very easily kick you to the curb,”[/color] she retorted. Her irritation didn’t come from being offended, because she couldn’t give a shit what Emily thought (and was very open about her sex life). She was actually incredibly better that she was yet to get [i]anywhere[/i] with Trevor and Emily’s little comment reminded her of that. And it was also Emily, so everything she said was fucking dumb and made her want to punch her. [color=FireBrick]“So shut the fuck up before I do.”[/color]

Though, Maya wasn’t going to miss an opportunity to mess with either. She nonchalantly added, [color=FireBrick]“oh, I’d be careful where you sit in the back, I can tell you it wouldn’t be a pretty sight if you took a black light to it.”[/color]

And then she turned to the knock on her door, actually pleased to see Quinn for the first time in her life. Not because she liked the girl, she was fucking weird, but anything beat a moment longer with Emily. And a nicotine hit would be pretty nice right now. 

[color=FireBrick]“Sure, I’ll take one,” [/color]she said as she got out of her car (reluctantly turning the music off). [color=FireBrick]“I could [i]really[/i] do with it.” [/color]

And stretching her legs would be good, for all her basically telling the two in her car to get her coffee. She stuffed her hands in her pockets and nodded for Quinn to lead the way over to a spot away from the cars.
