~Isabelle's POV~
I trudged silently to the door, followed by all my friends. Chessie suddenly pulls lightly at my shirt. He leads me, and me only down a lone corridor, where Jeb sits in a chair outside of. Chessie licks me lightly on the head, and listens through the door. Then, he looks right at me. I now hear the conversation inside. "I didn't know you could do that." I murmur, and listen in. Jeb tries to grab the little cat, but he ducks onto my shoulder. I listen.
Alyssa, if you do leave, I recommend punishing the children, don't ignore me!
I scowl, but don't say a word.
Listen, Morpheus. I do love you. But I also love Jeb. But I'm...I don't really know anything at this point. I don't think I want to see either of you right now.
The door opens right as I run. I grab my friends and we leave in defeat.
-In the real world, Renee's flat-
"ISABELLE! WHERE WERE YOU?!" Screamed my enraged mother. Renee stepped up. "She got lost at the tube. I found her, and we got lost. But we're here now. It's OK." My mom likes Renee, so she cools down and collapses on the couch. "Don't get lost again." Me and Renee go up to her loft. "So, do you want to borrow Unhinged?"
-TWO MONTHS LATER-
I sit at my desk, on a Saturday. February is boring and cold. I'm drawing myself in the dress. It's stuffed in my closet somewhere, out of sight. I'm about to just watch TV when I get a call from Renee. "Hey, do you still have that key?"
