Waking from your slumber, soft fingers trailering the surface of your back exposed from the covers of your doona. Turing your head to know face the girls resting beside you, her head raised and rested on her palm as her elbow digs into the pillow her head once rested on. 

"Morning." You smile at Toni, her hair in an organised mess as her eye shine with a rest full sleep from the night before, filled amongst other things. 

"Moons." Smiling at the girl, her noticing your other tattoos, her fingers tracing over it. The individual moon cycles trailing down your spine. The full moon sitting in the centre of the other assorted ones. 

"What do these ones mean?" Toni's hand stops at she reaches the bandages covering your back, the 7 and final moon hidden under them. 

"No matter what state the moon is, I'm always the same." Toni looks at you worried, worried that the message was to be interpreted darker like your other tattoo. 

"Don't worry this one means I will not be like any other, no one can take away who I am as a person, anything good or bad about me." Her face lighting up like your own as you are lost in her beauty. Pulling your body up slightly you pull Toni's face to your kissing her lightly on the lips. Rolling over you stand from your bed, picking up and putting on your bra and underwear that had be thrown across the room. 

"What about that one?" Toni gestured her head to your final and most recent tattoo. Though parts of it are hindered by bandages. The only tattoo with some detail of colour. Roses placed on the front and side of your hip on the right side of your body. Placed from under your rib cage all the way down till the top section of your thigh. Clusters of deep dark almost black leaves filling in the space between each different sized rose and bud. Some of the flowers curving over to the back of your body. A single rose, the largest of them toned in red hues with still outline and defined in black, the centre of the rose sitting inline with the inside of your inner thigh.

"Only a rose filled with true love will bloom to its fullest colour amongst the rest of those who believe they know love, being hindered by black. While the black roses are the mystery behind it, also meaning the death of your old life and the birth of a new one when you find that one you love." Sitting on the edge of the bed your hand placed lightly on the tattoo. Your back facing Toni as she - her body still wrapped in the doona - crawls towards you wrapping her arms around your stomach, taking a hold of you hand as she rests her head in your neck.

"And have you found them yet?" Toni speaks cautiously yet bluntly and confidently. 

"I hope I have." Turning your head to look up at Toni, gently kissing her jawline. 

"We better get up, still have to go to school don't we." You speak to her a rhetorical question you both know that you can not refuse. Standing you turn to your draws, where you shuffle through your clothing. Throwing several pieces to Toni as you to get some to clothe your own body. 

"Are you sure your okay?" Toni questions in reference to the injures you sustained only the night before. 

"They will be fine. If it makes you feel any better, I will be careful all day." Toni still positioned on the bed, bundled in the doona, your hand cupping under her face, finger racing along her jaw line as your raise her head up, leaning down you kiss her lovingly. 

"Now get dressed, your clothes got covered in blood yesterday." You stand still towering her as your swing your shirt over your head, pulling it down over your body. Toni dresses her body as you do so. Opening your room you leave it Toni following behind. Ignoring the scene that presents itself before you. Blood soaked into your couch, hand prints of blood covering tables, cabinets and door frames, a small puddle before the cabinet in which hides your food. Your mask still protruding from the wall. Opening your trailer's front door you gesture for Toni to exit first, having picked up a few of her things along the way. She walks to her bike as you lock the door as best you can with a busted lock. Before you now stands a cleaned field of grass, your blood having been clean from it by Jughead. Walking to your bike you find your bag and confined belonging still slugged on the seat along with your helmet. Picking up your bag you swing it over your shoulder securely as well as your helmet on your head. Starting your engine you pull up beside Toni who had parked her bike only a few metres from your front door. Watching all her actions, eyes engaged only onto her. But your other senses scouting for any sign of the Actor or one of the other White Suits. Nothing. Toni smiles at you, but you can see in her eyes she is overwhelming concerned for you, especially your injuries.  Smiling back you rev your engine, gaining her attention to continue putting on her helmet and start her own engine. Smiling you take off, riding beside her the whole way to the school. Dismounting the bike, you walk to Toni's watching the girl mimic your actions, meeting you halfway smiling at her.
