Room 317- Saturday afternoon

[notconflicted]

Sia was curled up on the cushion of her bay window that was totally in her room now, looking out at the scenery below. She'd been feeling kind of weird over the last day or so, for no apparent reason, and now she was just content to be pensive and... hum to herself. The tune just spoke to her.

Just close your eyes
The sun is going down
You'll be alright
No one can hurt you now
Come morning light
You and I'll be safe and sound

It was apparently that kind of day.


[Door and post open!]

"No, I think I'll go," Atton said. It'd just be insane if anything actually happened in this conversation.

Don’t say "Yes", run away now
I’ll meet you when you’re out of the church at the back door
Don’t wait or say a single vow
You need to hear me out
And they said, "Speak now"

"I'll get some Coke from the common room."

"I'll get some later." She'd just have to pine.

More than she already did.

Sigh.

We are never ever ever getting back together,
We are never ever ever getting back together,
You go talk to your friends, talk to my friends, talk to me
But we are never ever ever ever getting back together

Atton got out of his chair.

He walked to the doorway. He... lingered. All the things he couldn't say. All the things he couldn't do. And there she was. There she was.

I said remember this moment, in the back of my mind
The time we stood with our shaking hands
The crowds in stands went wild
We were the Kings and the Queens
And they read off our names
The night you danced like you knew our lives
Would never be the same
You held your head like a hero
On a history book page
It was the end of a decade
But the start of an age

Long live the walls we crashed through
All the kingdom lights shined just for me and you
I was screaming long live all the magic we made
And bring on all the pretenders
One day, we will be remembered

"Yeah," he said.

He vanished into the hallway.
