I was running late to thee meeting with the eye, I couldn't find the right outfit so I just decided on a black sundress with flowers on it,. The front went down a little more than I wanted so I was showing quite a bit of cleavage. I had knee high heeled boots on to match the dress and a black clutch bag. And of course my black fedora.
Henely was gonna meet me there so she had a head start to get some coffee for us and wait outside for me. I hurried to the building and grimaced slightly seeing as it was slightly run down and looked shabby. I walked to the front and stopped dead in my tracks.
Daniel Atlas
There he was in all his glory. (not)
I went up to them and grimaced as he looked me up and down and smiled at me. "Jessica, it's wonderful to see you again" I flat out ignored him, grabbed my coffee from Henely and walked past them and into the building. I stopped in the lobby and waited for Henely, i sat and drank my coffee happily. When Henely walked in.. Daniel hot on her tail like a lost puppy. I cut him off and resumed my spot next to Henely.
"So how's it been guys?" Daniel asked us as he tried to act all innocent and nice to get an insight on our lives. "Daniel you know exactly how our lives have been we know and have seen all your anonymous comments on our website" Henely said, I just overall refused to even look at him. "you guys have a website? That's good...that's good get the word out..." Daniel trailed off as we all saw the man that was standing in front of the door with the address that was on the card. I froze in my tracks as Henely smirked at me and subtly jabbed at my side.
"Okay so none of us were the only one chosen, let me be the first to kick my ego to the curb" Merritt said as we all walked towards him. "Yeah excuse me" Daniel opened his big fat mouth and forced himself to the door.
"Doors Locked"
"Yeah well I'll check myself"
"You Two" Merritt stopped me and Henely from walking as I silently cursed at myself and Henely smiled politely. "Helen, no..Henely!..and you Jesslynn no..Jessica!" Merit correctly guess our names, just as i knew he would...
"It's on their coffee cups"
"Thank for keeping me honest... that wasn't mentalism that was an observation... second observation... you are beautiful" he said slowly pointing at me. "T-Thank you.." And just like that I was cherry red.
"O-okay that's good, that's very nice and polished, nice bit. Jay Daniel Atlas, very nice to meet you" He reached out to shake merit's hand. "Do you ever shut up like really you must just love your own voice and must really need to hear it all the time" Just as I said that Merritt and took his hand back and flipped Daniel off, I laughed at that. "Very nice' I know who you are and i'm not interested in you doing your mentalism thing, you either Jessica, especially when we don't know who brought us here or even if it's real" I just stuck my tongue out at him as Merritt gave me a side glance.
"huh huh huh im sensing im sensing you are a... control freak?" Merritt held up his hands and was very dramatic with it "Have we met before?" Daniel played along sarcastically. "It doesn't take a mentalist to figure that out, you ARE a control freak, you once shoved Jessica to the back because she was getting more attention then you" Henely fired away at Daniel, while you sat there silent.
"Good I take that as a compliment and it was my show"
"Only you would take that as a compliment and it was OUR show"
"Good another compliment and it was mine"
"Is that why you two are no longer together?..."
"A couple we were never a couple, just.."
"OMG spit it out you two. Daniel bounced Henely and I back and forth, end of story" I spat out, I was getting tired of their games.
"We ditched him together, I was to fat for him anyway"
"I said that once because of the trap doors"
"No one could fit through those doors, No One!"
"Jessica fit, Jessica fit for years" That's where I had enough and I slapped Daniel and glared at him.
"Okay so he never made you two feel special and you both deserve to be made to feel special.." Merritt said though most of his attention was on me.
"No way.." we all turned to the staircase to see a boy who looked just slightly younger than the rest of us approach us." Jessica Lionel Shrike, I have seen everything that you've done, I'm your biggest fan" He gushed on and on, i was slightly flattered but Lionel wasn't my name...
"Lynn, it's Lynn...Lionel was my father" I smiled kindly, I didn't really wanna make it a whole big scene.
"Oh i am so sorry... I'm Jack by the way" I shook his hand to be nice.
"Question did you get one of these?" Merritt got straight down to business and pulled out his tarot card.
"Death" Jack
"High Preistess" Henely
"The Lover" Daniel said and Henely and I coughed out "3 minutes" we patted eachother's backs while smirking.
"Hermet" Merritt
I took minute to pull mine out. "The Queen"
"So what are we waiting for someone?" Jack asked and i'd have to say he acted like a cute little puppy dog. "Door's locked" we kind of all said at the same time.
"Oh no, nothing is ever locked" Jack pulled out a little pack out of his jacket pocket before kneeling down in front of the door and we all realized he was picking the lock. "Another lock picker, i'm finally not alone" I piped up behind him.
"you're never alone Jessica you do everything" Daniel didn't sound very happy when he talked, guess when your full of shit that just happens.
