devil in disguise — 003. season one, episode two.
The beeping of Elizabeth's alarm started sounding through all of her room. She quickly turned it off, as she was already awake. After her meeting with Clay and with everything that had happened yesterday she had a hard time falling asleep, and the dark circles under her eyes made it even more obvious.
She got up from bed and headed to the bathroom. The first thing she did was wash her face. With a few water drops still falling through her face, she looked at herself in the mirror, and she could almost hear Alison telling her to put some make up on before someone saw her like that. She sighed and took the towel to dry her face and put some make up on to cover the evidence of her sleepless night. Any other day she would've worked harder on her make-up, but today she felt like she might gouge out an eye with the eye-shadow brush due to her tiredness. She finished getting ready and headed down downstairs, where she was expecting to see her father.
Instead, she was met by her brother pouring himself a cup of coffee.
"Hey" he softly greeted his sister, giving her a sympathetic smile "Made you coffee"
"Thanks" she gave him a tight-lipped smile, grabbing it and sitting next to him on the kitchen "Where's dad?"
"He got a page from the hospital, something came up" he explained; it wasn't unusual for their father to abruptly leave; after all, he was one of Rosewood's top surgeons "How are you?"
"Tired of people asking me that" she replied with a sigh; she was sick of everything treating her like she was gonna break any minute, even though she knew they were just genuinely worried about her.
The news playing on the TV screen caught her attention as Detective Wilden showed up on the screen. She couldn't help but think that he looked oddly familiar, but she couldn't decipher why. "The coroner did release his findings this morning, and although Alison Di Laurentis' body did show signs of a blunt-force head trauma, the cause of her death was suffocation" Luke quickly turned the TV off, not wanting his sister to had to listen to that, which she thanked.
"I should get going" she informed finishing her coffee, grabbing her purse and saying goodbye to her brother before leaving for school. She saw her neighbor a couple steps ahead of her, so she started walking a little bit faster to catch up with him.
"Morning" she greeted him with a wide smile.
"Hey" Ethan returned with an even brighter one "I didn't think you were going to school today"
