Violet Shadows (FF7)

35) Inevitable

I JUST REALIZED IT'S BEEN ALMOST 20 FRIKIN CHAPTERS SINCE THE LAST MEMORY CHAPTER THING... WHOOPS... I THINK I MIGHT'VE GOTTEN A LITTLE SWEPT AWAY IN THE STORY, BUT I'VE FINALLY COME UP WITH SOMETHING. YAY!

OH YEAH! SO I WAS AT MY FRIEND'S APARTMENT THE OTHER DAY AND WE DECIDED TO GO SWIMMING. AFTER BEING THERE FOR ABOUT AN HOUR, THIS GUY AND THIS GIRL GOT IN WITH THEIR LITTLE BOY. NO BIG DEAL, RIGHT? HOLY FRIKIN MONKEY CRAP ON TOASTED RYE, YOU ARE WRONG. THE GUY LOOKED EXACTLY, DETAIL FOR DETAIL, WHAT IMAGINED DAVID LOOKS LIKE (WHICH IS ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL ;]). AND THE GIRL WAS A FREAKING BLONDE, NOT EXACTLY A VIOLET CLONE, BUT SHE LOOKED CLOSE ENOUGH.

CRAZY THING IS, AFTER I EXPLAINED MY RANDOM FANGIRLING TO MY FRIEND, WE WENT AND CREEPILY EAVESDROPPED ON THEIR CONVERSATION AND THEY WERE MAKING WEDDING PLANS AND THEY HAD THEIR LITTLE ADORABLE KID AND OMG IT WAS SUCH A CRAZY DAY CUZ I SAW MY OCS IN FREAKING REAL LIFE AND THIS IS THE LONGEST RUN ON SENTENCE I'VE EVER WRITTEN GOODBYE.

"Moron," I huff as another one of those dorky college kids knocks something over. He eyes it a moment before shrugging and walking away, leaving me to pick the decoration up. Lucy better appreciate my effort to keep her party nice. My stepmother bustles past, brunette hair tied back tightly and jacket loosely buttoned on. She pauses and looks back at me.

"Violet, dear, get a coat on. You'll freeze."

"Nah, I'll be alright," I brush her off, accidentally knocking my knee into a lawn chair and wincing. Curse my awkwardly long legs... "Do you know where Lucy is?"
