Baking Buddies

A/N:  enjoy Pearl and Scar being protective siblings bc yes. Also- some parts of the chapter might be cringe, proceed with caution!

Scar smiled, focused on his sisters voices. All three of them were fighting for the chance to talk to him. Right now it was Lia, telling him what had happened since he was gone. Jessie had lost a tooth, and Harp had grown two inches. 

His ears twitched as he heard the slight creak of a floorboard being stepped on. Scar saw a flash of Grace in the corner of his eye, walking towards the living room. He focused back on his phone, this time his mom, Georgia could be heard.

"Hey honey! We have to go now, we all love you and hope you can visit!"

Scar looked at the calendar app on his phone, seeing the soonest time he could visit.

"Oh yeah! My next break is is on Valentine's Day. We have a three day break, so I could visit then!"

"Oh wow! I didn't think you'd be able to visit so soon, I'll make sure to tell your sisters, we love you!"

"Love you too!"

Scar hung up, smiling. He was glad that he could visit so soon, only in a weeks time. Until then, calls would have to suffice. He turned his head towards the door as he heard footsteps. He was expecting Grace, not a random brunette coming into his room.

The girl was wearing a dark blue hoodie with jeans and sneakers. Her wings were pretty, fading from a blue so dark it looked like black, to a blue so light it looked like white.

"Hello, I am Pearl, Grace's older sister."

Pearl looked at Scar, holding out her hand for Scar to shake. Scar stood up and walked over to Pearl, shaking her hand.

"Why don't we sit? I need to talk to you about something important regarding Grace.."

Scar nodded, and motioned for Pearl to sit on his bed. Pearl thanked him, and walked over to it, sitting down while Scar stood near the door, leaning against the wall. 

"So, what do you need to talk about?"

Pearl looked at Scar, dead in the eye. "First off, whatever I tell you, tell nobody. It's just between me and you. Grace will not know about this, okay?"

"Alright.."

Pearl sighed, looking at the ground. "Like me, Grace will get wings. But I'm afraid I won't be there for her when she does get them"

Pearl paused, tapping her foot against the floor. "I can tell she is going to get them soon..."

Scar smiled, trying to cheer Pearl up. "Hey, I have siblings, so I understand"

Pearl looked back at Scar. "You don't understand, what do you think it feels like to have wings literally come out of your fucking back?"

"..."

"Well it's not very pleasant, and I should know that first hand."

Scars gaze flickered to Pearls wings. He would've thought it wouldn't hurt, but now he realized how dumb that would be. 

"I'm sorry"
