Eden was exhausted, to say the least. Lizzie wasn't lying when she said she wasn't letting her sister sleep that night so Eden had all night to let her mind run. She had drawn the monster over and over all night, every time the same image taking place on her page.

Lizzie had decided that even if Eden had a concussion it wasn't bad enough they had to worry about it and she would be fine, besides the trauma part. So, when she was given the okay by the 15 year old, Eden closed her eyes and fell asleep for just a bit.

When she woke up again she took a shower before she went downstairs to find her brother on the phone. "Thanks so much Adam, I know this was just sprung on you I'm really sorry once again. I'll send her your best, thanks man." Ryan hung up the phone and turned Edens way, a bit spooked to see her there but smiled anyways.

"How are you feeling?" Eden shrugged, sitting at the dining room table. "Less tired." He smiled. "Good. Adam sends his best and hopes you feel better so you're off until next Monday." Eden nodded. "Thanks."

Eden lightly rubbed her wrists as she looked towards her brother. "Hey... do you think you could drive me to the mall?" Ryan looked at her confused. "Why do you need to go to the mall? You should rest more, Eden." Eden shook her head. "I just want to clear my head and I can't here."

Ryan sighed. "I just don't think it's the best idea." Eden frowned, standing up quickly. She immediately regretted that, though, as she had to grab onto her chair to steady herself. Ryan was instantly at her side, worry evident as he looked at her. Eden brushed him off, walking towards her room. "I'm fine."

She went into her room quickly to grab the small pad she'd been drawing the monster on as well as her pen, sticking both into her back pocket. She connected her car keys to her belt loop before she remembered where her car was. "Shit."

Eden went back to the kitchen with a frown. "I really need a ride to Starcourt... unless you want me walking to get my car before driving myself." Ryan shook his head instantly at that. "Yeah, no. You're not driving anywhere. If you give me your car key I can go get your car once James comes over. Where is it?"

"It's, uh, at Heathers." Eden responded. Ryan nodded. "Cool. Do you seriously want to go to the mall of all places?" Edens thoughts went to Dustin, Robin, and Steve as she had just disappeared. They probably assumed she was at work, and she honestly didn't want to go into details with them about anything that happened. But she couldn't think of anyone else she could spend her time with after what happened with Heather and refused to stay home.

So, Ryan drove Eden to Starcourt with the most silent car ride the siblings had ever been apart of. Eden had stared out the window the whole time and after a bit Ryan gave up on making conversation.
