Room 218, Thursday (01/03)

Jan 03, 2008 09:22

Beauty's half of the room was clean and neat, without even any clothes stuffed under the bed (which was a somewhat unusual occurance). She wasn't sure when A.J. would be coming by, so in the meantime she was curled up on her bed with her Christmas gift.

Adah had been moddedly kind enough not to give too much of an annoyed look when Beauty had ( Read more... )

After a while, although still earlier than A.J. had himself anticipated, there finally came a light knocking on Beauty's door. He shifted a little, pulled at the strands of hair (the green had finally started to fade) in his eyes before tucking them back behind his ears. He didn't know why he felt nervous, like he and Beauty'd never just spent time hanging out in one of their rooms before.

Looking up at the knock with a hopeful smile, Beauty set aside her book and said, "Come in, it's open!"

She'd heard the radio report last night, and tried not to look too curious or sympathetic at A.J., because she didn't want to appear nosy. But it was going to be a struggle not to ask him what had happened.

"What?" A.J. asked as he moved over toward where Beauty was sitting, but not at his look, as the slow grin that followed showed and the teasing quality to his voice. He plopped down on the bed, reaching across her for the book and checking for a page marker. "You haven't finished it yet?"

"I've been going slowly, so I can read to you while you paint," Beauty retorted, making a face at A.J.

Which explained why she was only halfway through.

Charlie rapped her knuckles on Beauty's doorframe, writing journal in hand, and said, "Helllooo? You up for a visitor?"

Beauty looked up at the knock, surprised that it wasn't A.J., because he was her only regular visitor. But she was pleased to see Charlie, and smiled at her.

"Of course, Charlie, come in. I'm sorry I haven't seen you around at all. That's probably got something to do with the fact that I don't get out very often, though."

"And I've been madly studying, trying to pass my classes," Charlie admitted, bouncing in a little, and looking around. "Oooo. It turned out nice!" she said, commenting on the walls. "A.J. told me, but I couldn't have imagined this."

"I had a couple that made me pretty nervous about passing myself," Beauty agreed.

Her smile brightened tenfold at Charlie's admiration of the walls. "Isn't it beautiful? A.J. is such an amazing artist, and he was so thoughtful...it's like a garden here in my room, and I love it."
