[indent][indent] Harper peeked through the blinds of the kitchen window, watching Axel leave the house. Mixed feelings occupied her mind, having earlier told Axel that she'd stay inside, only would hop over to Holly to bring the food. And Holly was just two houses over, past the graves. Safe, right? But... the Gazebo was right across Holly. So technically..

Harper shook her head. She can try and justify it in her head but she still kind of lied to Axel, something she doesn't do. Still, she wasn't about to miss out on the meeting at the Gazebo. Not just because it would be important for their survival, but also because she missed people. She missed her friends, Holly, Lee, Kit, Jason, hell even Davey. The others, too. The young woman pursed her lips as she thought about them. It won't be normal, like before. Can't joke around like before, talking about where to go to college, talk about crushes, new music, all the good stuff. 

Nope, she wouldn't let herself sink there. It wasn't like her, anyways. Seeing Axel's frame disappear from her view, she let the blinds slip from her fingers and turned around. The bag she had filled earlier, with food for Holly, was standing by the kitchen door. She looked down at her phone, reading the messages that had come in, and Holly's thank you message. She'd convey her thanks to Axel later. With a deep breath in, and then out, Harper took the bag for Holly. Next to it, was a backpack that held a bottle of water and a bag of chocolate chip cookies baked by Axel. While Harper was sad that the ingredients were going bad, and that it forced Axel to mass-bake everything, she wasn't about to say no to cookies. She'd share them with the group. 

By the front door, she tugged on her boots, the leather protective of her ankles in the April breeze. After putting on her jacket, she opened the front door and stepped onto the porch. Almost like a criminal, she crouched and walked like that towards the porch fence, peering around for Axel, or any non-alive people. Her eyes landed on the house in front of hers again, where Kit and Harry lived. She'd berate Kit later about ignoring her. 

When she couldn't see her brother on the street anymore, having turned into the clinic, Harper stood up. She raised her hands above her hair and tied her hair into a ponytail before walking down the steps and toward the street. She past the Graves house first, crossing the street there toward the Sparlings. her mind thinking of Jason. A smile played on her face, thinking about her classmate. Then, past the Holloways. Her friend Holly, god how she missed hanging out. With all of them, frankly.

Walking toward the Gazebo, she spotted two figures already there. She didn't recognise them as any of her friends, but as she came closer, she recognised them as Velero's tenants. They came by The Greenhouse sometimes. With a bit of effort, Harper was sure she'd still remember their regular orders. When coming closer, she noticed Jason was within the Gazebo too, along with his siblings Lika and Winnie. 

With a relieved smile on her face, she stepped on the gazebo steps and looked at those present. [color=F7DC6F]"Hey."[/color] She said to them. 

Taking her phone from her back pocket, she looked at the time. 1:55. People should be showing up by now.
