Clovis would love to glare at the girl. The group didn't matter. This was silly. If she was going to be weird about it, she was an adult and could make her own decision to miss out.
He takes Apps hand.
"C'mon, if she doesn't want to get out of here, she doesn't have to." he gently and quietly says.
He looks up to Claire, his irritation with her not obvious on his expression.
"You're welcome to join if you want, but you don't have to." he looks around the garden. "Though, I don't know why you'd want to stay…" he turns and starts to walk towards the door to inside.
Claire watched them walk off. I knew I was never worthy…. She sat at the fountain, partially yet highly disappointed. ….They don’t deserve me. No one deserves me….
(???)(I thought you wanted Claire to go with them???)(Clovis is a gentlemen and understands she has free choice. He ain't gonna let no one push her around.)(
(She said that she didn’t want to go.)
(Mmmn. Ok. Sure.) (she doesn't have to go.)
Clovis enters the building, holding Apps hand and ready to support her if she needs it. Molly stands at the top of the stairs, glaring.
"I don't want the stuttery, whiny blonde to come along."
Clovis ruffles molly's hair as he walks by.
"Whatever. She can come if she wants."
Claire had no interest anymore and she got up. I knew they didn't want me… They were just being nice… She walked away, more to the border of the courtyard (I assume that's where they are??) to look at some tulips she thought seemed nice. She closed her eyes tight. I can't shake them off my mind…
Molly growls under her breath, but follows Clovis and App to the room.
(Maybe I should change my mind)
(Nah, you're fine. You can let her do whatever. I just thought you had wanted her to stick with them. Do literally whatever you want, cause like anything can happen :P )
(No, I meant about staying here.)
(I mean I'm not even doing anything.)
(Well, usually you gotta get the swing of things before your character quite fits in well. If you hand in there, she'll fit in eventually :P) (Sorry you feel like you're not doing anything. Maybe bring in a extroverted character who knows your girl. That would balance it out more and then more would happen too)
(I. Am. Not. Controlling. More. Than. One. Character. That just makes stuff confusing.)
(Imma do something later tho)
Claire realized she didn't really have much of a choice. At least they took time to…. Talk to me… She glanced back but saw that they disappeared.
Worry coated her face. W-Where did they go?? She began to have a severe sense of loneliness– like all the times before. She shivered at the thought…..
Molly looks out of the bedroom window, down to Claire. She scoffs.
"Why would she come anyways? she's got it all here with Darren."
Clovis glares over at Molly.
"I don't know. I would feel trapped."
She sat down near the flowers, trying to recollect herself. I can't…. Claire glanced around frantically. No…… Ugh…. Her head spun, and she entered some kind of panging daze. What…?…
App let Clovis lead her away, but she wasn't happy. She completely ignored what wasgoing on around her. She whispered, "What did I do?" as she fiddled with a knot in her hair.
Clovis sighs.
"You didn't do anything. She can't make up her mind, so its best to let her do it on her own."
Molly glares out the window.
"Maybe she'll stay here."
App just stared at her feet in silence. One of her leather covered feet was tapping irritably. She was suddenly reverting back to her nervous, jumpy side.
Claire covered her face and began to sob. Why….? Why did I say no? I want to leave, I want someone to lean on…. She felt the walls sort of close in on her, and she tensed her shoulders. Dammit….
(Is Fiona in the same room?)
(She's in the room with all the supplies so I think so?…I've just been waiting for them to get there before I jump back in)
App waited for some sort of instructions. Any instructions. She was becoming more and more depressed by the second.
(They are in the room :D does anyone care if we skip to the next morning? Idk what to make happen rn.)
