Chapter 21

I got out of my first warm shower in months, immediately missing the feeling of the warm water, I wrapped myself in an orange dressing gown that had been left out in the bathroom, then pushed open the door and stepped out of the bathroom tucking a strand of damp hair from my face

"I'm done" I  smiled,
looking down at Ellie as she sat on the wooden flooring

"Oh. Okay thanks" She smiled awkwardly, avoiding eye contact with me

"You okay-" I began to say

"Yup," she said quickly, dashing into the bathroom and slamming the door behind her
"Fuck." I heard her mutter, causing me to chuckle

'She's adorable..'
I thought, images of Ellie's bright red face popping into my head
I decided to have a look at the bedroom.

The room was decorated with orange-striped wallpaper and turquoise furniture. I spun around seeing how posters of bands I have never heard of before were scattered all around the space.
Neatly laid out on the bed, were two pairs of jeans, boots, socks, t-shirts and jackets for me and Ellie.

A note sat on top from Maria saying that we could find her just across the street. Beside the clothes was a clear, rubber cup.

Weird.

I read over the explanation on the instructions it came with. It said it was a reusable menstrual cup, used by people on their periods to catch blood internally.

"Huh...yeah not for me maybe Ellie will want it"
I mumbled,
as I placed it back on the bed

Now that I had some time to process what had happened earlier, I felt hope building up inside me that Ellie reciprocated the same feelings I had for her ..

I pondered on what could have happened if that branch hadn't hit the window..
would we have... kissed?
I was soon taken out of my thoughts by the door to the bedroom swinging open

"Hey.." Ellie poked her head around the turquoise door
"Sorry about earlier... I didn't mean to slam the door in your face like that I just-"

"It's okay" I chuckled,
cutting Ellie off
"Oh look what Maria left for us" I giggled picking up the menstrual cup

"What the fuck is that"
she laughed, moving over to me

"It's for periods...I don't wanna explain just read"
I said shoving the instructions at Ellie

"Weird... are you going to use it?" She asked, looking up from the piece of paper

"Uhh..idk I mean maybe as a last resort"

"Yeah.."

"She also got us fresh clothes!" I grinned, pointing at the two piles of neatly folded clothing

"Nice." she said nonchalantly, picking up a pile of clothes

"I'll go change in the bathroom" she said, retreating out of the bedroom

After Ellie and I finished putting our new clothes on we decided to go over the street to the house Maria said she would be in the note,

Ellie knocked on the door we got no answer so I just pushed open the door and walked in Ellie following behind me

"Hello? Maria?" Ellie called out. As she removed her hood,

we wandered into the living room. And Above the fireplace, on the mantelpiece, we noticed there was a chalkboard with two unlit candles in front of it.
On the board, there were two names and dates written out
