❝ acting strange? what?
no, no! i’m fine! really.
i think i just— slept weird,
or something. had a nightmare,
maybe? i don’t know. ❞
a sigh suppressed his lips in
succession to his words too,
digits of his right hand gracing
the back of his neck.

❝ i just… don’t think it’s
appropriate. not to mention,
i don’t know WHAT i do, exactly.
it’s fine? i mean, it’s not fine—
but urgh— . . . i’ll pass. ❞

should he reply?
AHEM.. he should ignore
it, right? ohhh boy…
that grave from earlier?
dug far deeper than need be.
what about katherine? it’s
all about her, isn’t it?
but— . . .
there he goes, putting away
his phone. he shouldn’t reply,
yes. no temptations.

❝ i think i’ll be fine. i probably
just need more rest… a shower.

right hand rose, palm rubbing the
back of his neck.
❝ uh— thanks? i think… ❞

she'll play along。 for now。
“you're so sweet, putting my health and safety first. . .”
she hums, twirling curled hair around her finger as she thinks。
“then i guess. . . i'll come round to check on you later。
— - can't have you dying on me just yet~ ♡”

❝ wait, what? ❞
way to go, vincent…
❝ no! no— i mean haha.. uh..
it’s not that i don’t want you to
stay, not like that at all!
but what if it’s contagious?
don’t want you getting sick
after all, right? ❞
trying to dig himself out of the
grave. failing.

“you're not feeling well, huh. . .?”
cue a suspicious stare — then in a second, it's gone; a smile in it's place。
“aw, i'm sorry~。 why didn't you just say so, silly!
if that's the case, then i'll just have to stay here and make sure you're all better。”

❝ you thought i wanted to— ❞
watch your words here…
it’s not like he can just say that
he didn’t want to see her. damn,
she’s calling him rude for locking
her out too. urgh…
❝ oh right, yeah. i— wasn’t
feeling too well! so i up and
left early, hahaha… ❞

“yep! but i thought you'd want to see me。 so i let myself in~”
𝘣𝘳𝘰𝘬𝘦 𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘸𝘢𝘺 𝘪𝘯; 𝘵𝘰 𝘣𝘦 𝘮𝘰𝘳𝘦 𝘢𝘤𝘤𝘶𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘦。
a feat she seems to be proud of。
“y'know vince, it's kind of rude to lock me out like that. . . making me work so hard just to see you。”

well, he looks like he’s set to
throw up! can these mornings grow
any 𝐰𝐞𝐢𝐫𝐝𝐞𝐫?
❝ uh, yeah— um… ❞
cue him clearing his throat, attempting to make sense of it all.
❝ thank you? wait— HOW did
you even get IN? pretty sure i..
locked the door, right? ❞
