She'd been completely out of it these last few weeks. She'd been skipping all of her classes, hiding away in the Library or the Dorm, her helplessness and frustration eating away at her.
And for once in her life, Mason didn't care how she looked. There were bags under her brown eyes and. . . she just felt tired, worn out. She didn't even have anyone to turn to, since she ran her own damn relationship into the ground.
With a sigh, the Snake took a seat at the almost empty table, pushing the plate and cutlery as far away from her as possible, her stomach already churning at the smell of the food. Why was she even here, again?
She just wanted to go home . . . she just wanted her family. Colt made it to the feast. Woah where did the term go? He felt like he just came here and now he was gonna leave. It was also his last term and he looked down at his head boy badge and he was gonna miss his status. Ah well someone will obviously wear better than he ever could. Now was he hungry? Not really, he was more antsy to get home. He figured he might as well stop by and say goodbye to all of his friends. He saw someone he knew instantly at his table. Man she didn't look good at all.
He treaded with caution and sat across from the table from his trusted sidekick. He cleared his throat and had to say this. "No offense Mason but you look like crap..." I mean her hair was not kept up. It looked like a rats nest. He saw the bags under her eyes. "Bloody merlin when is the last time you slept?" Colt could always sleep well in the dungeons since it was poorly lit, so the sunlight never came through waking him up. She even pushed away her dishes. Something was clearly up with her.
