Secrets and lies always follow people around, and even if you try to break free from your mistakes-you never will. After living a life she never really liked, Arturia decides to pack her things and leave. Arriving at a country side, she rents a smal...

Grainne's eyes shot open, a tear slipping down her cheek as the bright sun light fell upon her. She took a deep breath to calm herself, easing her mind away from the memory and pushing herself to sit up. Her arm was cramped from being under her the entire night and her waist ached from the twist it made. She was about to stand when she recalled that Arturia's head was leaning against her legs.
Grainne yawned, stretching her arms and glancing over at the ticking wall clock. She shut her eyes as she rubbed them and smiled at the thought that it was Sunday. Grainne's favourite day of the week would have to be Sunday; there was no school and she would always go out for ice cream. She loved it! Her smile dropped when she realized she wasn't going out for ice cream with Diarmuid but then she shrugged it off, thinking that maybe Arturia would like to join her.
The Irishwoman reached over towards the night stand, where she had left her phone and, after grabbing it, she turned it on to see a few messages; mostly from her father. She yawned again, gently slipping off the couch, trying not to wake Arturia.
She sneaked off into the washroom and made a quick call to her father, telling him that she was fine and that there was nothing to worry about because she had slept over at a friend's house. After washing up, she looked at her lock screen; a picture of her giving Diarmuid a kiss on the cheek. Frowning, she turned her phone off and left the washroom.
"Hey," Arturia yawned, pushing off the couch.
Grainne smiled, waving at her. "Good morning! Did you enjoy the movie?"
Covering her mouth with her arm, the blonde nodded slowly. She wrapped the blanket around herself and got up from the couch. They had forgot to turn on the heater the previous night and so the autumn morning bit them with freezing teeth. "It was beautiful. I think I must find myself a mister Darcy."
"Mhm," Grainne agreed.
"What would you like for breakfast?" Arturia asked, picking up the two cups they had left on the coffee table.
Grainne shrugged. "Whatever you'd like; I'm okay with anything."
They had gone through a quick morning routine and after breakfast, they had sat down once again to watch another movie. Grainne had asked Arturia if it would be alright to go out for ice cream later and obviously, she agreed. Grainne had also suggested that they should invite Jeanne.
While something played on the television, Arturia dialed Jeanne's number.
Drrrr...Drrrr...Drrrr...
"Hello?" The frail groan of the girl came through the line.
