❝ be here with me forever in the gray ❞

in which a quiet girl haunted by the past
reconnects with her old friends as they

𝐀𝐒 𝐑𝐄𝐋𝐔𝐂𝐓𝐀𝐍𝐓 𝐀𝐒 𝐒𝐇𝐄 was to leave the serene scenery, Thalia eventually allowed Romeo to take her back to Brentwood, with Romeo generously letting Thalia keep the beige satchel to hold Violet's journal in. The pair made a quick pit-stop at the nearest convenience store, both of them struggling to keep their eyelids open, exhausted after their night out, neither one having caught a single wink of sleep.
"Monster Energy?" Romeo asked, yanking open the convenience store fridge door as Thalia nodded eagerly. "Let me take a random guess," Romeo added sarcastically, acting as if he didn't know exactly what Thalia's favourite flavour of Monster Energy was, "you want Ultra Violet Monster Energy?"
"Wow, detective-level deduction skills! Not as if I have this every time I see you," Thalia cheered mockingly, slow-clapping as she rolled her eyes, Romeo chuckling under his breath as he grabbed two cans for her, handing them over before grabbing another two more for himself. "Unfortunately for you, I've got no cash on me so...would you be a dear and sponsor me?"
"I'm your chauffeur already...think I can handle for paying for your drinks too, brat," Romeo replied, chuckling under his breath as Thalia playfully nudged him, the pair collapsing in laughter as Romeo dumped the four cans on the counter, whipping out to pay the cashier as Thalia lurked behind, hands in her pockets, the beige satchel slung over her shoulder.
Her eyes lingered on the packs of cigarettes that lined the shelves, pursing her lips together as she tried to remember what it felt like the first time her lips curled around the cigarette paper and the strong taste of tobacco filled her entire body, seemingly shaking her to the core as she took a puff for the first time.
She remembered the huge fight she had with Romeo after he found out she'd swiped a packet of his cigarettes and tried smoking them. They tasted like crap, to say the least, but it was that sensation of control she had that made her want to continue. Smoke had haunted her her entire life, finally being able to control the puffs made her feel something, feel as though she was finally in control of something.
