Elide bit her lip and suddenly felt really tired. She sighed and text Phoebe privately, "Hey, I'm feeling kinda tired, I think I'm gonna go to sleep, sorry."

“No problem, goodnight Elide. Sleep tight <3”

"You too xx" Elide turned her phone off and placed it beside her, quickly falling asleep.

(Time skip?)

Yeha sure, before school or during?

Uh.. idk, during?

Lunch or before?

Lunch sounds good

Phoebe set her tray down at her usual table, glancing around. Neither Elide nor Jane were anywhere to be seen, and both Josh and El were away. She sighed, taking a seat and opening her sketchbook.

Elide got out of class late and hurriedly tried to make her way to the cafeteria. She noticed Matt on her way there and stayed away from him. She swallowed and smiled when she noticed Phoebe, walking up and sitting beside her quietly.

“Hey,” Phoebe greeted, shyly peeking up at Elide through strands of messy brown hair. She ducked her head back over her sketchbook, tracing a few rough lines before sliding it into the other girl’s lap. “I, uh, drew you. It’s messy, sorry.”

Elide smiled softly down at the drawing, then glanced at Phoebe, "I love it." She looked down at the drawing again, biting her lip as the smile grew a fraction.

Phoebe ran a hand through her hair, slightly embarrassed. “Thanks— I, um… I was bored in class, I couldn’t stop thinking about you, so—“ She gestured messily to the sketch, a blush rising to her cheeks.

Elide nodded, "I wish I could draw as good as you…" She said softly, admiring he picture and taking in every detail about it.

Phoebe bit down on her chapped bottom lip, ducking her head again to hide her flushed face. “Thanks— I wish I could take pictures as well as you.”

"Thanks, Phoebe." Elide handed her sketch book back, her soft and small smile still there as she did so.

Phoebe ‘accidentally’ brushed her hand against Elide’s when she took the sketchbook back, leaving her meal untouched as she gently flipped back to another page. A second drawing of Elide was bashfully shown, this one done more slowly, with jester stroked and better shading. In the drawing, she was depicted curled up in an armchair, mid-smile and in the process of getting up.

"When did you draw that one?" Elide asked, scooting a little closer to Phoebe so she could get a better look at the picture. She blushed a little at how well she was drawn.

“Two days ago, I think?” Phoebe glanced away, clearly nervous. “Do you like it?”

Elide nodded, "Phoebe, I love it," She smiled up at her, "I love you." She said quietly.

If they hadn’t been in the middle of a crowded cafeteria, Phoebe would have leaned in right then and there. She refrained, barely, whispering her reply. “I love you too..”

Elide smile grew a little before it dropped and she looked towards the ground saying quietly, "It- It would have been Luke's birthday tomorrow… I don't- I don't want to come into school but Giselle is making me…"

Phoebe glanced around before squeezing her hand tightly. “I’ll be with you the whole day. If there’s any way at all you can convince her to let you stay home, then that would be amazing, but if not, I’ll be right here.”

Elide nodded and squeezed her hand lightly back, "Thank-you, Phoebe… Tomorrow's going to be a long day, I just know it."

“It’ll be over before you know it,” she promised, turning as to better face her girlfriend.

"Hopefully, his birthday is always the longest day of the year for me. Only for a different reason now," Elide rubbed at her face, "Sorry, I'll stop talking now…"
