I haven’t seen you since I got back. Where have you been hiding?
I haven’t been hiding! Apparently, I haven’t had the pleasure of bumping into you.
Staring onto the ceiling with the grimoires on his lap, leaning his head against the backing of the couch, Adam dozes off under the comfortable surrounding with the perfect weather.
‘Adam, you got to be careful, protect yourself and everyone from the circle.’ Caught himself standing somewhere covered with an endless white background, Adam could hear this message coming from all sides around him.
Opening his eyes slowly, catching the view of the ceiling where his last piece of frame before he fell asleep. It was Adam’s birthday. But things does seems to be boring for him a little, reading through the grimoires since morning. What makes him wonder is why Caroline isn’t anywhere around the apartment the moment he wakes up. Pursing his lips as he went back down to the grimoires, he stared blankly at a point where his mind when over the scene of what he dreamt of a minute ago. Shaking off the idea, thinking that it was just some weird dreams he’s having being too stressed out, he raised his brows as he grabs the glass of animal blood on the side table. His cell lights up with Cassie’s message, swallowed a little with the animal blood while picking up his cell, he’s glad that there’s actually somebody who asked him out for his birthday.
Got himself readied as he went out of the apartment, heading over to the place they are meeting, a park somewhere near Mystic High. Getting himself out of the car, the dream earlier was totally out of Adam’s mind. Tucking his hands into his pocket as he walked himself in the park, feeling the serene and quiet surrounding, the birds chirping and the rustle of the leaves when wind blows. Settling himself at a bench, he leaned his arm back on the bench, smiling a little while observing the clear blue sky.
Cassie had gotten bored while being inside the silence of her empty home. The girl had no idea where her grandmother had gone to and the only thing that was keeping the quiet from completely devouring her was the sound of music playing violently against her eardrums. She was walking around every inch of her small bedroom, grabbing items that she was going to take to her friend, Adam - whose birthday happened to be today. Cassie grabbed items after items - first it was her cellphone, keys, and others things that she normally took with her, then she thought that she could something nice for him.
The blonde girl walked down the stairs of her home, takings a few peeks at the watch placed on her wrist - making sure that she wouldn’t be long. In the kitchen, there was fresh baked cupcakes on the stove-ones that she baked out of complete boredom- and frosted it a little, putting it inside a big enough bowl. Cassie dug through the kitchen drawers, trying to find at least one decent candle. The best she could find was a small black and blue one, chipped from different sides. Now, she was all set and ready to go. Without wasting anymore time, Cassie was out the door and on her way to give her close friend a small birthday he could be happy about.
After a few minutes, Cassie made her way to the park, looking around to find Adam. Her bright eyes wandered around from bench to bench, looking for that familiar figure that she has grown to know so much about. And right then, he was spotted - laying back against one of the old benches and from a distance, Cassie almost thought he was asleep. “Hey Adam!” She called, laughing a little bit. The sound of her boots made small clicking noises as she made her way towards him, extending the bowl that had his small birthday cupcake.
Great. I’ll meet you there?
Yes, at the park? So I’ll see you soon then.
See ya.
I guess I’ll take up that offer then. Thank you, again.
Great. I’ll meet you there?
I don’t know.. No one been inviting me out or something. Maybe it’s a good idea to stroll in the park quietly for my birthday.
Well, this is me officially inviting you out for your birthday. I wouldn’t want you to go strolling through the park by yourself.
