► How many years have you attended Second Horizons?

"This will be my first."

► What team color would you like? Do you think you'll get it?

"I uh... I don't really care. I don't think there's a Cabin that I really fit into, but I can say that I probably wouldn't like Red that much."

► Is this your choice to attend? If not, what can we do to accommodate you?

"Yep. I saved up money for months to come here to get out of doing Christmas with my family. Fuck that shit."

► Any allergies, disabilities, or special circumstances we should be aware of?

"Uh... I'm allergic to morphine."

► Do you have experience with any winter sports? Would you like lessons?

"No experience, but lessons would be FANTASTIC!"

► What are you looking forward to?

"The potential for hotties being here. The Christmas lights. Being away from my family.

► What are you not looking forward to?

"I can't really think of anything. Maybe having to share a room with everyone."

► Tell us a little bit about yourself:

I'm an optimistic, friendly, science nerd. I'm a hopeless romantic and love rom-com movies. I believe in love at first sight and all of that other cheesy stuff. I consider myself a loving and caring person. I'm very supportive of my friends.

But despite my good traits, I do have my flaws. I can be sarcastic. I'm very blunt, and I'm impatient. I also love to gossip. I know that it's horrible. I just can't help it!"

► Brief history:

"Oh gosh, what can I say?

I'm the youngest of five kids, and they only guy. My mom and dad really wanted a son and it looks like they lucked up on the fifth try. Well... sort of. I don't think my parents planned for me to be gay. That was a curve ball for them, but they loved me all the same - even if dad was disappointed I didn't want to play football.

Now I don't need to give you guys my whole life story, and quite frankly I don't wanna share it. All you need to know is that I work a little part time job back in Ohio and saved money for weeks so that I could come here.

Why?

Christmas with my family is hell.

Forty fucking people trying to pack into ONE house because they're too cheap to rent a hotel room, then arguing over who can and can't stay there. People sleeping in the bath tub, underneath the dinning room table. At least three fist fights break out. You can bet at least one of them will involve Uncle Danny's drunk redneck ass.

But I don't have to worry about that this year! I'm so glad to be at Second Horizons."

Personality Traits

Raven - like her father - is proud and take pride in what she does. She's been told more than once that her pride and honor will be her downfall. One thing that most people notice is her temper - much like her mothers. It takes a lot to get her angry, but once she's reached that point she is an absolute nightmare. A witty girl, sharp remarks and sneaky glares are more than common with Raven. Despite her similarities with her parents, Raven is the reserved kind, always have said to keep her feelings under lock and key. So reserved, it is said by some, that the girl is not able to feel emotion at all.

However, that could not be further from the truth. Raven feels things very intensely - sometimes a bit to much. This causes her to have very high moods and very low moods. Diagnosed with anxiety and manic depression, Raven is very self critical and cares a lot more than she should about what others think of her. She seeks validation in others, and becomes attached to people way to easily. Her depression causes her to unintentionally distance herself from everyone and everything, making it difficult to keep any relationship.

Raven is a girl with a witty comeback for just about anything. She doesn't speak unless spoken to on most occasions, but when she does speak Raven is a very charming and charismatic person. She is also very head strong and independent. Once she gets an idea she tends to run with it, and it's very hard to drop it - even when things go south. The young may come off as sweet and kind to people who get to know her - which isn't wrong. Raven has a big heart, and knows how to have fun just like anyone else. Don't be fooled; just because she is sweet and polite doesn't mean that she can't be bitter and cruel.

Biography

Raven grew up on the Upper East Side of New York in a lavish town home. Her father is the United States Congressman Charles James Willow. Raven's mother is Alexandra Divina Willow (formerly Castairs) - a socialite and renowned plastic surgeon to the stars. Both of Ravens parents grew up in the socialite world, and raised their daughter just the same. Most people would tell you that arranged marriages were a thing of the past - but not in communities such as the one where Raven grew up. Her parents marriage was out of ambition and the need to protect family fortunes - not out of love. Their daughter was unwanted, and the pregnancy was carried out only to keep up with appearances.

From an early age, Raven knew that her family had high expectations. Her grandfather wanted her to be witty, and to be well educated. Her grandmother wanted her to be poised and graceful. Her mother wanted her to be pretty and well mannered. Her father wanted her to follow in his valedictorian footsteps, attend Church every Sunday, and to conform to the traditional female roles.

Raven was raised mostly by the families staff. She went through a series of nannies before finding one that would actually stick with her. The family fired the nanny when Raven was thirteen - leaving her mostly to her own devices and unattended. Truth to be told, she was closer with the house maid than she ever was her own mother. Dad was an abusive alcoholic, and mom was a fat shaming bitch. Raven prayed each day when she returned home that her parents wouldn't be there.

Growing up, Raven found a lot of distractions in life. Home was hell, school was just as worse. So she turned to horseback riding, music, and writing. Eventually her mothers berating lead Raven to develop an eating disorder at thirteen, and her fathers abuse drover her to a suicide attempt at fourteen. Her parents didn't care enough to realize that they're daughter was on the verge of being anorexic until the doctors told them. Thankfully, her parents fear of having their daughters mental health ruin their appearance to the public lead them to seeking therapy for Raven. She was diagnosed with anxiety and manic depression at fifteen, and her mother died in a car crash the summer before she turned sixteen. That summer was also when Raven began to self medicate with alcohol that she got from her families liquor cabinet and willing Seniors.

Upon her mothers death, Raven went to live with her mothers parents in Columbus Ohio. They enrolled Raven at Liberty High for her junior year as she was accustomed to going to private school. Raven fit in fairly well at Liberty High, and even made a friend or two. She was able to bring her horses and her dog to Ohio with her, and getting out of her parents house has improved her mental health ever so slightly. Unfortunately, her past still haunts her every day, and her father hasn't contacted her since she moved to Ohio. He refuses to answer her calls, emails, or texts, and the one time she tried to show up at the office he had her removed by security.

Perhaps Senior year at Rosefell High could offer her a much needed silver lining.

"There's honestly not that much I can tell you about my life. I grew up between New York and Florida. Florida's where my parents are from, so they had a lot of friends and family down there that we visited pretty often. The Diedrikson, MacMillian and Drake families, mostly. We were all just like a big ass family. Christmas was always hell... but fun.

Uh... let's see. I have a twin - Nicholas. Light of my life. Don't tell him I said that - It'll go straight to his fucking ego. There's my older sister Fiona. She was always the good kid of the family, but she's done some shit that mom and dad doesn't know about too. We all have. Speaking of mom and dad, I guess you could say I have pretty famous parents. Mom's a music producer and dad's a soap star. Neither of them ever had that much time to spend at home, but when we all got together... it was great. Fi would be in the living room playing the piano. Nick would be dancing or some shit. Mom and dad would be laughing and cooking in the kitchen.

Anyway.

School was always cool, I guess. I've never excelled in class, but I've never been a failure, either. All of us kids have always went to private schools. Dad's job brought us to Ohio. Why fucking dumbass, grungy, dirty, filthy Ohio I will never understand, but whatever. I spent Junior year at Liberty and now I'm going to be spending senior year in some cesspool called Rosefell.

Guess I better go get drunk."

Biography

Born in Columbus Ohio, Christian was the product of a modern day some-what arranged marriage. His mother was to inherit a multibillion dollar science research company, and his father was to be the heir to a renowned wine company. They knew each other since they were kids, and their parents only thought it was logical to make sure that they married someone 'acceptable.'

Christian was born five years into their marriage, and his sister Marianne came three years later. Christian and his sister spent most of their life being taken care of by a nanny. His parents managed to make time for all major holidays (which they considered Thanksgiving and Christmas). While their mother did her best to be as present as she could, Christian would bet money that his father never even cared.

Christians child hood was just about as plain as a rich kids life could be. He had whatever toys and tech he wanted. He got to go to fancy parties, like the ones where his mom handed out awards to the doctors. He began playing football in middle school, and earned himself a spot on the team as the running back.

Christian was never what someone would consider a problem child, though he did get detention on multiple occasions for acting up in class. Once he reached high school, there were a few suspensions for fighting - mostly due to Christian taking up for his fellow classmates.

Christian looks forward to finishing his senior year at Rosefell, though he's not quite sure if he'll like it.

  • A few self harming scars on both wrists that are normally covered by bracelets sporting her favorite bands. Most of her scars/cuts are contained to her upper thighs.

Personality Traits

On the outside looking in, Lilith is one of the most happy, socially awkward people that you could ever meet. Always saying something goofy, and having a way with words, she's the kind of girl to have a handful of friends - though she prefers spending her time alone. Having social anxiety is perhaps the reason for her social awkwardness, which causes her to say and do really random things in public. Lilith is the type of girl that may come off as a bitch from time to time. Rather this is because of her sarcastic remarks or the way she rolled her eyes - well, that's up to you.

The fun, somewhat shy, bubbly side is the mask that Lilith wears on a day to day basis. However, that's the coverup that she puts on. The truth is, Lilith suffers from depression. The girl tends to keep her emotions bottled inside and simply does her best to release them through writing, studying, and marijuana usage. Hot headed as they come, it's a fortunate thing that Lilith knows when to bite her tongue. If she blows up on you, you've had that shit coming for a long while.

Lilith is a very loyal person, and will do practically anything for her friends. She doesn't trust or get attached to to many people, so when and if you hurt her, expect her to cut you out of her life completely. A promise means everything, and she will never break one. Lilith is honest to her core, and her respect is earned. She has no time for cruel or false intentions, and expects people to treat her with that same respect.

She is typically found reading or listening to music. She enjoys YA novels like Percy Jackson, Harry Potter, and the like; There's also a good mix of adult novelists like Stephen King. With a close emotional connection to the night sky, Lilith enjoys spending hours outside at night staring at the stars. An even stronger connection to the ocean, she has no hesitation with driving down to Virginia beach for the weekend. Stubborn as can be, she sometimes has trouble accepting things as how they are. Her witty remarks often get her called sharp tongued; her dark humor winds up in her getting called crazy here and there.

The young woman hates drama, gossip, and any other thing of the sort - though she has no problem listening to it. She just doesn't want to be an actual part of it. She can typically be seen hanging out with the guys at school, because she considers females too much drama. Of course, if you ask her how she is doing, you will receive a great and a goofy thumbs up. Not being able to express herself truthfully angers her to no end, though, just like her true feelings, she doesn't let it show. In short, the girl is a half read book. To know her, you must first know the whole story.

Biography

Born in a small southern town in Western North Carolina, Lilith was the product of a one night stand. The pregnancy came as a shock to her mother Claire, who immediately called up her parents in Ohio to tell them the news. Ecstatic, John and Christine jumped at the choice to have their only daughter move back home with promises of helping with the baby. Claire was determined to make it on her own, politely declining her parents help, though the did frequently visit and exchange gifts.

Growing up with a single mother who worked long hours, Lilith was often left to be cared for by baby sitters. Claire was always sure to make sure that her daughter had whatever she needed.

It wouldn't be until Christine fell ill with lung cancer that Claire and Lilith would move to Ohio. (Lilith would be eight at the time). Wanting to be with her mother during her final days, Claire spent most of her time either at work or helping the older woman. That left Grandpa John to look after Lilith most days.

Moving multiple states away and switching schools at such a young age didn't affect Lilith much. The kids in the city were a lot more mean than the kids back home, but such was life.

Being an only child, everyone did their best to make sure that Lilith had the best and was happy. Christine showed the girl how to cook and clean. John taught her how to change the oil in a car, how to fix a sink, and other things that would help her on her path to independence. Her mother Claire worked long hours at the ER, but was always sure to make time for Lilith where she could.

Once seventh grade came around, Claire forked out the tuition fees and money for the uniforms so that Lilith could try out a new school called Liberty. Unfortunately the kids here were brutal. They made fun of everything. How her hair would sometimes be messy, or her lingering southern accent. How she walked, and the things that she liked. Lilith felt like a total outsider for both her seventh and eight grade years.

When it came time for high school, Lilith had a long talk with her mother and decided that it was best for her to return to a more familiar setting at Rosefell high. Sadly, two years of being bullied relentlessly and feeling like an outsider had already taken their toll.

Maybe it was the bullying. Maybe it wasn't. Perhaps it was the death of her grandmother Freshman year that was really the final nail in the coffin. Whatever it was that set off her depression, Lilith could never figure it out. All she knew was that she was full of self hatred. Where she used to see the world in colors she know often saw things in shads of grey. Once known to have a decent amount of friends, the young woman now spent most of her time alone.

High school came with it's own set of problems. Senior class boys that used you and tossed you away; Girls that would make fun of you for the dumbest shit. The parties full of booze and sex. Lilith's grades fell off drastically during her second semester of her Freshman year, causing her mother to become concerned. Lilith shrugged off her mothers questions, locking herself in her bedroom most of the time she was home.

The self harming started that summer. If you asked Lilith what led her to pick up the razor, she would tell you: "I feel to much." For Lilith, cutting was a way to control her emotions. She would much rather be in physical pain than emotional pain. With the self harm came the suicidal thoughts at three in the morning. While she never acted upon them, sometimes she wished that she had.

Now it's Senior year and her mother finally convinced her to try therapy.

Lilith doesn't know what she's going to do after high school. Her only dream in life is to become a surgeon, and she has no idea where to start. Truth to be told, she didn't think she'd make it this far.

Most people who have met Erin describe her as being like a puppy. She’s inviting, gives out compliments like candy, and is always eager to please. She’s nearly always cheerful, and tends to look on the brighter side of things. Erin floats around the school grounds taking pictures of everyone and everything - sometimes capturing things she doesn’t intend to. Erin is the sort of person that has a heart of gold, and treats others the way that she wants to be treated.

Erin is loyal to a fault, and always tries to see the best in people. This often lands her in some very sad and sticky situations when people turn out to not be who she thought that they were. Erin has a very hard time telling people no, and is known to be very trustworthy. Erin often finds herself harboring peoples secrets, and has never leaked anything to anyone unless someone was in danger. Much like her father, Erin is corny, and always has a pun up her sleeve. Erin also gets her compassion and caring nature from her father, and does her best to spread the love.

Do not be fooled by her good side.

Erin also has a badass for a mother, and learned things over the years from her as well. Erin gets her bluntness from her mother, but she tries to word things in a friendly manner. Her mother is also determined and confident - two other things that translated well into Erin’s personality. Her mothers flirtatious and sexual side also transferred over. Of course, the one thing that it seems all the children in the Blake family inherited from their mother is her temper.

It takes a lot to push Erin to her limit, as she’s a very patient, kind, and forgiving person. But piss her off one good time, and you’ll find yourself pinned up to a wall while those blue eyes start to look more like flames.

Biography

”Er… Hi. I’m Erin. Erin Jude Blake. Third and final child of the Blake family, and the only girl. My brothers and I came into this world as a set of three on Thanksgiving Day. Mom and dad were celebrating their engagement one night, and knew they wanted kids. They just didn’t expect all of us to come at once.

My mom is Jasper Blake. Some of you might know her as Jasper Delamar. She’s a world renowned chef, owning five restaurants located in LA, New York, Paris, London, and then Charlotte, North Carolina. All of these restaurants specialize in different foods and different settings and they’ve all been awarded at least one Michelin Star. She’s also the star of the cooking show ’Cooking With Confidence: At Home with Jasper Blake.’ She also has another show that’s in the works to be produced right now, but she’s not given us that many details on it.

My Dad is Nathaniel Harvey Blake III - a famous photographer. Growing up, you could say that I was a daddy’s girl. Dad had a camera, so I had to have one. Dad took pictures, so I had to take pictures. Dad had jokes, so I had to have jokes… you get the point. I always wanted to be like dad. I still do.

I guess I should tell you about my brothers. There’s Nate the fourth - or Neal, as he likes to be called. I got dad’s photography, and Neal got mom's cooking gene. Neal got more of dad's personality like me, and Damon wound up with moms. We’re still waiting on him to find his special talent, but we love him all the same without one.

I started messing around with photography probably when I was like… six, I think? Dad helped me hold the camera up so that I could take pictures and such. It just sort of grew from there. Growing up on five hundred acres in the middle of the North Carolina wilderness meant that I had a lot of opportunities for taking bomb ass pictures - especially when it snowed. Sometimes I would pack up and just go out there for a week or two at a time and just camp, trying to find the best shots. I’ve always felt pretty at home with nature. We moved to Edenridge the summer before freshman year, and we kept our home in NC as a getaway. We moved here because Mom and her brother have always been super close, and since Uncle Ty and Aunt Junie moved here, so did we.

School was school. It’s not my favorite thing in the world, but it’s there, and I really liked it at Edenridge high, at least until… the shooting.

Let me make it clear that I never blamed Charlie - I blamed us - all of us that missed the signs and the warnings, and I blame myself most of all for not being there for him when he needed me to be. Charlie and I really hit it off Freshman year, and then after everything with Allison…. I just wonder what would have happened if I had reached out to him more.

I was in the cafeteria for the shooting. I remember hiding in the kitchen, and peaking around the corner. Charlie saw me, and he started walking over, and I…. started begging for my life. I kept reminding him of that science project that we did together, and I had no idea if he was going to… going…. Going to…..

In the end, he walked away. I think the cops had come in and he took off running or something. Everything is sort of blurry, and I just… I don’t like to think about it.

I finished off the school year fine enough, I guess. Nothing… has really been right since the shooting. At least not for me.

My cousin, Serena, started drinking even more. Neal and Damon ended up just as scared as I did. Maybe more. I’ve been traveling to different places in an attempt to build up my portfolio. I’m coming back to Edenridge for the reunion.

Biography

Bradley was born and raised in Ednenridge his whole life, and has never left the state of Massachusetts.

He was the product of a one night stand on Prom night. His father - John - proposed to his mother - Samantha - shortly after she announced the news. Both of them came from families with strong faiths, opinions, and traditions - so the kids did what they thought needed to be done. John was prepared to work at his fathers mechanic shop in order to support his family; Samantha wanted an abortion. The young couple clashed and finally came to a compromise - Samantha would have the child, but would give up her parental rights to John and would want nothing to ever do with said child. Fully for the challenges of parenting, John agreed.

Bradley lived a fairly normal life in a double side on the more southern part of town with his father and grandfather. Both of them assisted in raising Bradley to be a kind hearted, respectful gentleman. He started playing football from a young age, and was a Quarterback for most of his time as a player - including all of his time at Edenridge High. He maintained a steady C average for most of his time spent in school, and spent most of his afternoons in his family's mechanic shop.

Bradley thrived in high school. He was liked by many, had excellent luck in the dating department, and saved up money while working at the shop. When he turned 16, Bradley’s grandfather gave him his 1969 Baby Blue Mustang. He finally worked up the courage to ask out his longtime crush - Lexi. She said yes, and over the course of the next year the two of them fell madly in love. Bradley found out that Lexi was pregnant the summer before Senior year, and instantly jumped at the chance to support Lexi no matter her decision. The young woman decided to keep her child, with support from the King family. Lexi had to move in with the Kings following her announcement, due to her family kicking her out of the home.

Both Bradley and Lexi intended to finish highschool and support each other through it all.

Charlie ruined that plan.

The morning the shooting happened, Bradley and Lexi had arrived early that morning in the cafeteria for breakfast. When Charlie opened fire on the room, Lexi was hit in the throat and right leg while getting up to throw away her trash. Bradley rushed to her side, doing her best to control the bleeding, and making her the promise that everything was going to be okay.

Nothing was okay after that day.

Bradley’s grades slacked off. The Coach was lenient and allowed him some time to get back on track, and heavily encouraged him to do so. Bradley barely made it through Senior year, but ended up with his diploma. After school ended, Bradley fell into somewhat of a sad pattern. He wakes up every day and helps his father run Kings Mechanics, comes home to cook, watch the evening news, and lay out on the ceiling of the house to stare at the stars while listening to shitty Indie music.

The young man spends his days feeling as if he’s just floating mindlessly through life. He’s desperately trying to find something or someone to change his outlook on life.

Biography

”I’m going to do my best to keep this short.

My father is Tiberius Delamar - tattoo artist to the stars. My mother is Junie Baby Delamar - formerly Macmillian. She’s an amazing artist. They met in college. Fell in love. Traveled the world, got married, worked through dad’s drinking problem and had three children.

The first of us was named Spencer. A year older than me, Spence is the only one of us that got moms red hair. I was always sort of jealous… he’s on the wrestling team at Beverly Hills High. He’s a Senior there.

The second child was me. I guess you could say I was the bad child of the lot.

And then there’s Sylvie - a freshman. The apple of everyone’s eye, she’s a total daddy’s girl. Pure and innocent, she’s the best of us all.

My childhood was great. My parents gave me everything that I wanted, within reason. We had our freedom. Mom and dad never came in our rooms, never went through our phones, and enforced reasonable curfews. We moved here when I was 13. My parents wanted to try out small town life for a brief moment and ended up falling in love with it.

Life in Edenridge has been… interesting for me. My grades were good, and there’s a surprising amount of trouble that can be found in the small towns. I started getting into a lot of trouble the summer before Senior year. Everyone knows the class of 2016 was cursed as hell and then there… then… there…. Was the…. Then there was the shooting.

I didn’t know Charlie - we ran in different crowds - but I’ll never forget how he threw open the door to my AP Bio class and just started shooting. Everyone scattered. Blood was everywhere and I --- I can’t talk about this anymore. Yeah. The shooting fucked me up, what else is there to say?

Anyway.

After we graduated, mom and dad wanted me to get sober and go to college. So what did I do? I convinced them that what I really needed to do was travel the world. They sent me to rehab for a few weeks, but it failed.

So now here we are, and I’m returning home for a family reunion. We’ll see how this goes.”

Edenridge

____________________________________________________
____________________________________________________

Getting out of her vehicle, Serena picked up her newly acquired bottle of Grey Goose from the passenger seat and tucked it into her purse. Did she care that the bottle of vodka was sticking halfway out of her purse? Fuck no.

Walking into the diner, Serena watched the scene in front of her with a bored expression as she waited on her cousin's guaranteed-to-be-over-excited greeting. Heels clicking as she walked, Serena moved to stand beside Erin and placed a gentle hand on her shoulder. Turning to watch as Lanie walked away, the young woman sighed.

”Tragic,” she said, rolling her eyes and turning back to face her cousin. Her voice had been just loud enough to make sure that Lanie could hear her as she was walking out the door. ”Imagine being so insecure over - ” her eyes glanced over to Roddy ”that.”

Embracing her other half with an overly bright smile on her face, Erin scoffed and rolled her eyes in return.

”As if he’s the one of them I’d choose to bang,” she sighed, already beginning to walk over to her and Serena’s favorite booth in the back right corner.

Serena laughed one silent laugh. ”You have always had a thing for milfs.”

Sitting down, the girls took their respective sides of the booth; Erin on the right, Serena on the left. Putting her purse into the seat next to her, Serena passed a menu to Erin before picking up one for herself. Nothing had changed.

”So!” Erin said cheerfully. ”What’s been up in your mysterious world.”

”Nothing much,” Serena responded, still looking at her menu. ”Finding love in all of the wrong places, making bad decisions, being hot - you know, my usual.”

At that time, the waitress walked over to greet herself. She looked around high school age, with dark hair and eyes. She seemed sweet enough.

”I’ll have a short stack of strawberry pancakes, a side of sausage, and a cup of apple juice, please,” Erin told the waiter, somehow still smiling.

”A short stack of blueberry pancakes for me,” Serena followed up. ”Side of bacon. Cup of orange juice, and an extra cup on the side.”

”Thanks!”

With the waiter gone, Erin was planning on bugging her cousin about her latest adventures, but wound up checking her phone for the new message that had just came through seconds before. It was from her mother, Jasper.

Her eyes scanning the paragraph, Erin’s facial expression went from bubbly and excited to worried and confused.

Screwing the top back on her vodka, Serena looked up at the blonde. ”What is it, love?”

”Serena…. I--”

Just then the waitress walked back over, obviously nervous.

“Excuse me, ma’am, but I just watched you make yourself an alc---”

Holding up a single finger, Serena silenced the younger girl and handed her a hundred dollar bill from her pocket.

”Listen. We both know you don’t get paid enough to care about or deal with this shit, right, sugar?” Letting her flirtatious nature peak through ever so slightly, Serena smirked. ”Now. Do me a favor and go tell the manager that if they have any issues, they should come talk to me face to face and stop using you as the messenger, okay?”

Both confused and shocked, the waiter simply nodded her head and walked back to the kitchen.

”Now. What were you saying?”

”We need to talk.”

”About?” she retorted.

”Uncle Ty and Auntie Junie and mom and dad and basically the whole family have been keeping something from you because we’ve been worried and --”

Clearly beginning to become angry, Serena glared at Erin. ”Wha --?!”

”Nope! My turn! Hush!”

Taking a drink of her makeshift screwdriver, Serena still continued to glare at her cousin. Erin was the only one that Serena would listen to besides her mother, Junie, and she knew it.

”We’ve been getting… letters. All of us. You… me… the boys… Mom’s been talking to some of the other parents and so have some of the other kids we went to school with. I… I don’t think it’s an accident. And the letters…. They…. Rena…. They have to do with the shooting - with Charlie.”

Her blood turning ice cold, Serena kept her mouth shut as a nervous Erin tried to find the right words to use.

”According to mom, the letters say to meet at the old high school at eight.”

”Tonight?”

Erin nodded her head.

Pulling her bottle of vodka from her purse, Serena placed it on the table between them. ”Looks like we’re both going to need this. Are you… do you want to go tonight?”

”Neal and Damon are. They want to get to the bottom of it.”

”Fuck!” Rolling her eyes once more, Serena took a gulp from the bottle.

”You… keep drinking that. I think I might need to drive.”

”Good idea.” Exchanging the liquor for pancakes, Serena ripped a piece of one off before shoving it into her mouth. After a few moments of awkward silence, she asked a question she already knew the answer too. ”So we’re going?”

”Yep.”

”Fuck.”

”Yep again.”

Deciding that she needed to do some digging, Serena finally messaged Mei back.

’You know anything about these letters?

Rosefell High.

Chatting with Cade and the rest of the group, Christian was too caught up in how delicious his burger was to notice what was going on inside the house. It was only when he was halfway through his second burger that Christian noticed he didn’t have anything to drink. Bidding farewell to Cade, Elezar, and Spike, Christian departed the grilling station for the house.

When he got about halfway there, Christain became more aware of the sound of shouting coming from inside. It was hard to see through the crowd, but he was more than certain that there was some sort of argument going on. Still determined to complete his original mission of getting everyone to get along, Christian took a deep breath and marched on - stopping for a quick second to grab the water hose and turn it on.

While turning on the water, Christian heard a somewhat familiar voice from inside the house shouting over the roar of the voices. With the water hose in one hand, and a burger in another, Christian made his way into the house as far as he could. Most of the people around him were drunk and paying attention to Trixie, allowing him to only get a few strange looks and giggles as he drug the hose into the house.

Stopping about ten feet from where the fight was happening, Christian stood amongst the crowd and continued to nom away on his burger. Trixie was doing a good job changing the overall mood of the crowd. She had said mostly what Christian wanted to say - only it was how she wanted to say it.

Now it was his turn to say things his way.

Spraying the ceiling with the water hose, Christian shouted over the crowd as the water rained down upon them all.

”YOU FUCKING HEARD HER! Now stop acting like fucking idiots. Next person to even try and start something will be thrown the Hell out! UNDERSTOOD?”

There was a mixture of replies from the crowd. Some continued to shout ‘DRINK’, while others rolled their eyes or gave a thumbs up.

As someone began to call out for the teams to assemble, Christian let the garden hose fall to the floor with a sigh.

Now he really needed something to drink.
