(TW: Sight Cussing)

Velvet's POV

It has been one day since the guards took Veneer away, he still hasn't come back and I was getting worried. I was busy doing laundry with Eleanor, she was talking her mouth off as usual, God she talks to- " Velvet!" Eleanor said raising her voice to get my attention. "What!" I asked now annoyed at her, I look at her with a pissed off face. "Chill out girl, I was just asking if you were okay, you look a bit stressed out." She says with a concerned tone.

I heavily sigh. "I'm okay, its just that I'm worried about Veneer, the guards took him away yesterday and I haven't seen him since." I say while looking down at the laundry that I am yet to fold. "Oh, so the guards just took him away like that?" She asks. "Yeah, that's what I just said." I say rolling my eyes at her. "He will probably be okay, he can handle himself." Eleanor says as she walks away with the folded laundry, I sigh and decided to carry on with my job.

I was in my cell listening to music on the radio, the room was rather quiet, it was pretty lonely. I sigh and roll over on my side, this was so boring, if Veneer was here I could have bothered him. "Velvet, you've got a letter!" A guard shouted startling me a bit. I get off my bed and walk over to the cell door, they slip the letter through the bars, and I take it.

I look at the letter, and open it. It was a letter from Veneer! It read-

Dear Velvet,

You might be wondering where I went, well then the guards took me away they decided to release me on parole. They didn't let me say goodbye to you, everything happened so fast, I'm still struggling to comprehend it myself, but I just want you to know that I am okay. And I will try and visit you as soon as possible, stay safe.

Love Veneer- :)

I stare at the letter shocked, he was let out? I was gonna be here alone, with Eleanor, oh God, she is gonna be the death of me, my hands drop to my side with the letter in my right hand. I couldn't believe that he was now gone, I still had a year to serve in prison, and now I had to serve the rest of my time with out Veneer and instead with that crazy girl.

I groan and walk over to my bed, but before I did I looked at Veneer's bed, I frowned, I was gonna miss him, but at least he said he was going to visit me as soon as possible, so at least that was something to look forward to. I climb onto my bed and got under the covers, I hugged my pillow and drifted off to sleep.

It was the next day and I was talking to Eleanor, and by talking I mean she was talking, I hadn't bothered to tell her about Veneer's release, even if I wanted to, I don't think I would have been able to fit a single word into this conversation seeing as she was talking so God damn much. I just poked my food not really hungry, Eleanor stopped talking and stared at me, I look at her. "What?" I ask her. "Did you ever hear from Veneer?" She asks suddenly, she stared at me intently. "Uh yeah, he got released." I say then looking down at my food and playing with it. "Oh that's great!" She says while clasping her hands together and smiling. "I guess, its just now I have to be here for the next year with out him." I say still looking at my food. "Girl, you still have me!" She says, I look up at her and she gives me a playful wink.

I roll my eyes at her, God she is such a weirdo, I hear her giggle. "Velvet you're so serious its kind of funny, you really gotta losen up sometimes." She says while shaking her head and taking sip out of her carton of milk. "I am not serious!" I said defending myself, I frown a bit, am I too serious? No, I wasn't, Eleanor just doesn't know what she is talking about.

I get up and walk away from her. "Hey where are you going?" She says while I was walking away. "Away from you." I say while waving my hand.

I was walking to my cell but then some guards come up to me. "Velvet you must come with us, you have a visitor." The guards say. I had a visitor? Could it be Veneer?

We walk down the dark hallways and into a bright room, I'm guessing this is where inmates would talk to the outside world. They sit me down at one of the booths, and on the other side of the sound proof glass was a girl, I don't think I know her, but she did look pretty familiar, she had purple hair which was tied into a messy ponytail, light purple skin and purple eyes, Jesus that is a lot of purple. She was looking around the room and then noticed me sit down, she looked very excited.

I picked up the phone so I could talk to her. "Uh hello?" I ask with hesitation. "Omg hi! You might not remember me but we met awhile back, incase you don't remember my name its Violet." She says quickly, God she reminded me of Eleanor. "Okay...Hi Violet, why are you here?" I ask her. "Oh! Well I wanted to come visit you and see how you were doing, I would have come earlier but they were only letting family and friends visit you guys, so I had to wait a few months." She explain to me happily. "Oh, well thanks for visiting I guess." I say and looked away from her and around the room. " So I heard the your brother got released a few days ago, how are you feeling about that?" She asks me. "Well, I gotta admit, it is pretty boring with out him, and now I am stuck with this girl named Eleanor, and God she talks a lot." I tell her.

"Oh that must suck, but hey! at least you have someone to talk to still." She says while smiling. "I guess." I mumble. "Start finishing up!" The guards tell us. "I have to go now, but thanks for visiting." I say with a genuine smile. "Hey! No problem girl!" She says and smiles, the guards came to fetch me and I waved goodbye.
