I woke up, blinking a few times to take in my surroundings. Right, I was back in my dorm. I heard rhythmic breathing beside me, glancing over to see that Ellie had taken my arm hostage and was cuddling against me. Skin against skin, I thought, the feel unfamiliar.738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7FwRlozmla
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡggKN7L7DHi
Months ago, when I had first met Ellie, she was skeptical when I didn't want to shake hands. She kept a wary eye on me all day, and finally when we arrived in our shared dorm for the first time, she cornered me.738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf5fC42thPb
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡinVgYCFvfa
"What's your deal?" she had said. "You refuse to touch anyone, whether it's a handshake or a graze of the finger! Are you some sort of germaphobe?"738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvZQbQN1Rqt
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy9lyMn6Rlo
"U-Uh..." I backed against the wall. "N-No, it's just...I c-can't say..."738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgvPVC9aWg5
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5VJEraIHEE
"You can't say? Come on, enough bull!"738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVwgiqpcXQK
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiSyN87KUzb
"I really can't...I'm sorry."738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI1HCb6pMm0
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr0UR5Nt2jb
"Tell me!" She narrowed her eyes, and swiftly pulled off my glove. "Hey!" I exclaimed.738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdsPYKq429m
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt1Wu3ThJqq
"No. You're gonna have to get over this, okay? I'll help you through it. It's for your own good." Then she grabbed my hand with hers.738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBDbrQk4FFb
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlIN0qYYxoS
Skin on skin. Her memories all flashing through my head in a daze, circling, stifling, suffocating. I could only stand there and let it happen. A while later, I woke up. Ellie was leaning over me, a worried look in her eyes. "Jesus Christ! Are you okay?!" She had offered a hand, but quickly withdrew it. I blinked, but smiled, and took her hand. Nothing appeared.738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwe1KSyPUvJ
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZeYTF1YDZ
"I need to tell you something." I had said.738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE8es5Ztul8
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkIUaltpfxJ
I flashed back to reality, Ellie's grip on my arm lighter than imagined. I slipped out of her grasp quietly, not daring to wake her. Glancing at the time, I saw it was five minutes before my alarm would have gone off. God dammit. I walked over to a mirror, conveniently located beside our dresser. What a bedhead, as per usual. I grabbed my brush from atop the dresser, my eyes catching onto Ellie's wallet.738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl22SSXNmTa
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjopx9BHC0L
I hesitated, and glanced at her. She wouldn't know the difference, would she? No, I smiled. She wouldn't. I pulled open a drawer, and searched until I found my wallet. Digging around, I pulled out two twenty dollar bills and placed them inside Ellie's wallet. Thanks, but you need it more than I do. I gingerly put her wallet back where I found it, and went back to combing the knots out of my hair just in time to hear the beeping of the alarm startle Ellie awake.738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4RIliVvqSd
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6kgAhoRqa
"I'm awake!" she announced, shooting out of bed. I laughed. "Relax, it's the first alarm. You have plenty of time until class to get ready."738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWA2SqobFYy
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTXFQVFIHWM
She breathed a sigh of relief. "Good. For a second I thought I slept in again. What day is it again?"738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZnWnra9fum
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAsoW9inc82
"Monday."738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXkidxG6xxC
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0TO2PbzXYY
She made a face.738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJ1whm0PWG
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡujOdkwo446

"Why do you call it that?"738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxcI3LmPK8z
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4UtaKCgmS9
"Just pass it to me. Please." I rolled my eyes, grabbing her deodorant and throwing it at her. It landed on her chest, causing her to make an "Oomph!" noise, but she accepted it all the same. "What do you have first again?"738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡshb4iR2qFF
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7YFSlTW8JY
"Law." I glanced over at my textbook, a whopping seven hundred pounds to throw around.738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡduYXvRo0o6
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX36bwijN0D
"Oh, yeah. How is law anyway? I've been considering switching." 738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOpQChSOR9W

738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCrfSUUN5e8
Ellie glanced to the side. "Maybe. What about you, Miss Lawyer?" 738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEYcNlThvQi
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjs8NIbx0xT
I giggled. "Well, it's precisely that. You already know I'm going to be a lawyer. Why ask again?" 738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5s2xEzZnt8
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡInk6SVvtYD

738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYVFd5SnxIL
"So go for it." I checked my watch. "Shoot, gotta go. We'll continue this conversation later." I felt bad for cutting it short, but had to get to my classroom sooner rather than later. 738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVQ6tygJYqs

I slipped into my regular seat, in the middle of everything. Not too close to the front, but not too far at the same time. I like this spot, it made me feel blended in enough with the rest of the crowd to not freak out about trivial things. 738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQ3j1y1ATH
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡroySq7yySZ
"Ah, we meet again." The voice made me freeze in my spot, halting all attempts to set up my laptop and looking to my left to see him. 738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrCHeLcCR29
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8CFLwNmNRT
"Pip," I said. "What are you doing here?" 738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLw1bZDa60T
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUBwLY6vw9u
"Same as you. I'm here to learn." 738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwq2Ipw5VSq
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUXXtZAPYx0
I stifled a laugh, returning to unzipping my bag and booting up my laptop. "Really? You, of all people?" 738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ27mrSsNMcu
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqNQX0UREk
"Would you believe me if I told you I'm getting a Bachelor of Arts?"738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5aQTGvqtTC

"Somewhat. I've never seen you here before, though. Explain that." 738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG7Em1DH6ml
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyTt18N2OSX
"I always sit in the back corner. Plus, I'm not always this early." He chuckled softly. 738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrzg9UhqXE6
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4eUafNRXTh
"Hm, I'm not entirely sure about that story. It's a little suspicious. I'll choose to believe you for now, though." 738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjPRjaKWbc
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQmKxx4fmZ
"I'm honoured." He leaned back in his chair. I glanced at the front to see the teacher about to start his lesson. 738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnYOiKl0Gir
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ECJbSmT3D
"Get ready to learn." I smirked at him, my hands already poised to begin typing at a moments notice. Pip stayed the way he was through the whole lecture, not bothering to take any notes. I found myself wondering why he even bothered to show up if he couldn't make an effort to learn the material. I shook the thought away, telling myself to focus on the matter at hand.738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNBos5P4Unf
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDcmLe7ciS9
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgWPEpeH9L9
The lecture finished almost as quickly as it had started. I did a quick scroll through my notes, three pages full of text. Oh, boy. That would be a monster to study. Shrugging, I closed the lid of my laptop and squished it in my bag.738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFLuD1UvQDZ
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrCfBSW51ly
"Catch you later," Pip said, waving as he walked out of the room. I still didn't understand what his interest was with me. It was a theory for another day, I suppose. 738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ60XnJ7NsUL
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFejEcDKQvW
I strolled out of the room, my mind beginning to wander. It had to be around lunch time...my eyes spotted a vending machine and I made a beeline for it. Reaching into the side pocket of my bag, I pulled out my wallet. Black, standard, and not really much to it. I sighed. Maybe I should get one of those key chains or something, I thought. I put in some of my spare change, hitting the buttons C-4 and watching as my delicious bag of chips slowly unraveled from the metal coil. 738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbXPI21QC6M
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4mYJur9biJ
With a satisfying plop I went to claim my prize, some sweet Dill Pickle flavoured potato chips. I pulled the crinkly package open, slightly self-conscious that everyone was staring at me, and dug in. I got about three chips down when I heard my phone ring.738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaH4mAjKhlR

738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ230OdjYv6G
"Hello?" I said.738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL8p9gnFKGW

"What's up, Marcus?"738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Xqgqmo3ki

738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZ5Ruc2iJC
I sighed. "Boring, but I'll take it. Where's the guy being held up at?" The faint sound of Marcus ruffling through papers and I got my answer.738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkzg5Kd4F5p
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3KwO6mMfYX
"Detention Center. You remember where that one is, right?"738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5lTgsaTKpw

738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1G23HZytVZ
"Bye." I hung up the phone, sticking it back into my pocket. Did I have any other classes today? There was Psychology at three-thirty, so I have plenty of time to head over there. I crunched on the last of the chips, crinkling up the bag and throwing it in the trash. Next stop: Detention Center.738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDg4Ny2Ryo
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpPwoX37cqJ
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuLoNtpH9rW
It was always a dreary place, the Detention Center. It always made me feel as though there was some sort of impending doom that would strike this building, and this building only. Then again, those who were convicted here probably felt the same. As soon as I walked in the door, the stubbly, tired eyes of Marcus met mine.738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFvHyrDc0F7
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6VOCuw0xzn
"Hey! You made it." He hurriedly walked towards me, giving me a quick briefing of who we were dealing with. "His name's William Foreson, a mill worker, father, etcetera. While the police are pinning this one on him, he keeps on pleading that he's innocent. You can clear this one up, right?" Marcus spoke rather quickly, but it was a trait I was very well accustomed to by now.738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPExQ9RtNN
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmeFXzQxPk4
"Sounds simple enough. Can I talk to him?"738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6vgw5s4kQF
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0leFkQycid
"Yep. I've gotten the okay from the lady at the desk. He'll come to this spot right here." He guided her to the spot in question, which was as far away from other people as they could get. There was a thick wall of glass that separated the two rooms, and a phone for talking. I sat down patiently, and in a couple minutes a man approached the cubicle, nervously fiddling with his fingers. We both picked up the receivers.738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuVkk10UkIK
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr2pxkH6ULL
"Hello," I began.738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsFazj1IxZW
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc6QMaNx0r1
"Hi," he said hesitantly, his voice obviously exhausted and beaten down. He didn't look too good either. His blonde hair was matted and tangled, the shadow of a beard already thickly growing in, his aqua eyes hiding a tale of sadness that I couldn't decipher.738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFGrH0mUJEn
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkws6jiFdG
"So you're William Foreson?" I inquired, pulling out a notebook and pen. He seemed to take on an even more ghastly look.738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn03cD1mhwE
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMiNnimNqYT
"You're not one of those reporters, are you?" His voice sounded defeated.738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKBhBGYlUwG
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM62YJ1T26L
"Wha- of course not!" I objected. "Forgive me, I should have introduced myself. I'm Riley Rhea, a becoming lawyer. I'm here to help you."738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK03mZOCixn
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5hxcSSSrWq
"A becoming lawyer?" William questioned.738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqUlXqKA13l
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHWeOQQBVrT
"I'm...still in school," I admitted sheepishly. "But I have special...expertise that lets me take on cases. I've already helped solve a handful of other cases, and now I'm here to help you. Is that alright?" William nodded glumly. I couldn't tell if he simply didn't care or if he truly understood. Seeing as the glass between us was a problem, I couldn't just peer into his memories just yet. I suppose it was time to use what I had learned in school to my advantage.738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7AHkRZqPIP
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtYGg4v0r9F
"So, I understand that you have recently experienced a great tragedy, William." I decided to start right into it, but not too harshly.738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqD6idB0kgl
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHygmQsNCKx
"Call me Will," he insisted. "I should've expected that was why you came to see me. Please, just know that from the bottom of my heart...I'm innocent."738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRbgPbX1rdW
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhL1kPMYTVp
"I'm not here to convict you, Will," I assured him. "I want to prove your innocence. But, to do that, I need you to answer some questions. Are you willing to cooperate?" He nodded, his eyes boring into me still with that undefined sadness. I figured it must be from losing his family all at once - it would send anyone into a shock. I spent a good hour talking as much out of him as I could. It was a simple story, but a complex problem. According to Will's alibi, he was sleeping next to his wife when the fire started. He tried to save her as well as his two kids, but ultimately couldn't. One of the kids died shortly after getting to the hospital, and the other two within the burning building itself. I figured it wouldn't hurt to visit the building, but I'd have to do it later; my Psych class was approaching quickly.738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡslpkLPGSvH

The evening air was sweet and cool to the senses. I walked across campus, having just finished putting my supplies back in my room, and sought to grab something small to eat. Normally I wouldn't eat out so often - two nights in a row was unheard of - but I felt no obligation to cook tonight, either. I had quite a bit of money to spare, as well, so I could afford another night. 738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHDyMy70uNG
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9oCAG5KjdU
"Where to, Riley?" I almost shouted, but quickly composed myself. "Oops, made ya jump." Pip bounced beside me, an eager smile playing his lips.738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvgOO4sCHfs
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTsH8aEOtbh
"What do you want?" I sighed.738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8BtNupwPYz
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwS0HruDRI2
"I'm just tagging along. Where to?" he asked again.738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy44T6tZqz8
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlfMiGeCKpg
"I'm going to get something to eat." I wasn't quite sure why I told him the truth.738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmCa5uB8f0k

738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjs9xun5HU
"Shut up!" I shot him a look. He seemed more pleased than anything.738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHplFEUAaUn
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRCoXXuTnwd
"But, I came here to ask you something." He stopped walking. So did I.738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ3EnAZNfDf
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrfGsTy1CWw
"Out with it, then." I looked him in the eye. He had very deep, entrancing green eyes, and I found it difficult to stop looking once my gazed was fixed upon him.738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8N4aPynjG8
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxel9M8I3fS
"Would you like to come on a picnic with me? I'll supply the food." He had a playful smile across his lips.738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAwTR70DkYa
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTV8W0xchjg
"A picnic?" I questioned. "Surely people don't go on picnics anymore in this day and age."738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJMdmDdkIh
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbaXa7L9wCi
"So then let's take a trip to the past." He took a step closer to me. "I'll make sure that nobody will make fun of us or anything, if that's what you're worried about."738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN7dUBkjM8n
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfHZ9Z232f
"N-No, that's not it." I pondered the thought for a moment. "A picnic, then? Sure, I have nothing to lose. When?"738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI2L5BFuSsN

"Okay." I smiled, opening my mouth to say goodbye.738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEnuNOPFU06
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkqG3OLmXwH
"It's a date, then." Pip grinned, dashing away before I could say anything. As soon as the words sunk in I had to stop myself from yelling after him. A date? He couldn't be that foolish. Then again, I was the one who accepted...I shook the phrase from my head. Date or not, I needed to get some food in me now if I ever wanted to make it to tomorrow. I continued on my way, trying to decide on what I'd have for dinner instead. 738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUhD434JiJU

A-A new chapter? Of a story I haven't updated in a while?! Without warning?! Yeah, actually. I have good plans for this story as well as the others I've been working on, and I figured now would be a good time to update it. Why? I dunno, ask the author. ...wait. Er, anyway, I don't think I'll be updating this story that much in the near future, but I haven't forgotten about Riley and the gang. So here's an unexpected update for you all. Y'all.
