Faye enters her bedroom, somehow still astonished by the size of it, she had these blood red curtains hanging from her large window, her bed high in the air, black sheets to fit her aesthetic, a huge bureau with a big mirror on top, the sleek smooth black color catching her eye, she smiled happily to see how she could finally have her home as a 'vampire' themed, she always fell in love with it and yet she was living it. The fireplace in front of her bed, cackling as a tv stood above it, she turns the lights off sitting in front of it, taking in the scent of the fire burning relaxing, the events of going back to London's house and dealing with her mother bringing her stress but she reminded herself that it was Londons issue.

The sound of William moving in bed made her look back, she looks back at the fire leaning into the bed her body relaxing feeling the warmth, noticing her bright blue sparkly dress she refused to take off since seeing William's parents earlier for a brunch. She liked who she was changing into, having William be there when she had her panic attacks, it felt nice to have someone by her side. Her minds going to her mother knowing she'd be proud of her for finally living her life, Faye looks at her tatted forearm circling her death date, feeling as if she robbed of her childhood with her mother but shook her head since that was enough to spark an attack.

William slipped out of bed only in his boxers walking around the bed, furrowing his brows to see Faye sitting stuck in her head, "Babe." He bends down next to her, Faye's yellow eyes seeming more brighter in the fire's reflection. "You okay?"

"Yeah." She gives a smile reassuring him. "Just didn't wanna wake you."

"You haven't taken off the dress..." He States to see if she would blow her cover but she giggles feeling silly. He smiles , "I'm glad you came for brunch with them, I know it must've been hard but..."

"Hey, hey, anything for you." She strokes his stubble. "It was just a brunch; no one was killed."

He chuckles taking her small hand in his, holding it softly. "I'm proud of you, Faye." Those words caught her off guard, never hearing those words in her life. She blushes looking at the fire, but he puts his index finger under her chin, their eyes meeting once more. "I mean it."

"Yeah, I know." She responds shyly.

"I-I was thinking if we do a welcoming house party, since everything's in tact...if thats okay with you." William says.

"Yeah, why not? I'm sure people from states away would love to see our house, considering who our families are." Faye shrugs. "Why not come and see the Twilight inspired house?" They both chuckle.

William suddenly blurts out, "Y-You can invite, London." Her smile fades slowly, the darkness coming over in her eyes, her body tense pulling away from his touch, him feeling bad. "O-Or not, I'm sorry I just thought it would be a nice thing to do."

"Don't ever bring her name up around me, you understand?" She snaps.

"Faye-"

She scoffs getting up taking a step away but realizes she was wrong for acting coldly for a harmless suggesting, her shoulders drops hearing him come behind her, he puts her hair to one side. "I-I didn't mean it." She stammers feeling his arms around her waist pulling her close. "I overreacted-"

"Shh, baby." William whispers kissing the side of her neck. "I understand, Faye. It's okay, I promise."

London sits by herself once again wait for Aleixa to come from the bathroom, she sips her coffee before her phone began to buzz, her eyes dart towards it immediately grabbing it seeing Williams name, in a second she enters her password pressing his name, notifying her by a welcoming party tonight at the new house. London pulls out her phone snapping a photo, she furrows her brows as he texted once again, 'Tonights the night, Alex. I can't wait to all shock you bastards 😝'.
