I woke up, blinking a few times to take in my surroundings. Right, I was back in my dorm. I heard rhythmic breathing beside me, glancing over to see that Ellie had taken my arm hostage and was cuddling against me. Skin against skin, I thought, the feel unfamiliar.790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAt3wRm2D6r
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlItaFwP9p8
Months ago, when I had first met Ellie, she was skeptical when I didn't want to shake hands. She kept a wary eye on me all day, and finally when we arrived in our shared dorm for the first time, she cornered me.790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2MGSf88m1D
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsykwqItbHD
"What's your deal?" she had said. "You refuse to touch anyone, whether it's a handshake or a graze of the finger! Are you some sort of germaphobe?"790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCNKrFuecEx
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkMAmKv82W9
"U-Uh..." I backed against the wall. "N-No, it's just...I c-can't say..."790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQF8ksekiBW
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyda9kBrCkm
"You can't say? Come on, enough bull!"790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYSTeWmTFv
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkakRFF742o
"I really can't...I'm sorry."790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJsFwNWvPTP
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQtr0iDJY5O
"Tell me!" She narrowed her eyes, and swiftly pulled off my glove. "Hey!" I exclaimed.790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMnUFNZ4Dsj
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7mrRhbRprv
"No. You're gonna have to get over this, okay? I'll help you through it. It's for your own good." Then she grabbed my hand with hers.790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4y7Bu98sho
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwxOYca4tWS
Skin on skin. Her memories all flashing through my head in a daze, circling, stifling, suffocating. I could only stand there and let it happen. A while later, I woke up. Ellie was leaning over me, a worried look in her eyes. "Jesus Christ! Are you okay?!" She had offered a hand, but quickly withdrew it. I blinked, but smiled, and took her hand. Nothing appeared.790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ59i6D6oV4o
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCpmL8q06tl
"I need to tell you something." I had said.790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvnJmzwac9D
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMUqAubfvFQ
I flashed back to reality, Ellie's grip on my arm lighter than imagined. I slipped out of her grasp quietly, not daring to wake her. Glancing at the time, I saw it was five minutes before my alarm would have gone off. God dammit. I walked over to a mirror, conveniently located beside our dresser. What a bedhead, as per usual. I grabbed my brush from atop the dresser, my eyes catching onto Ellie's wallet.790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTdgEPVoZyM
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCGo53Ro10z
I hesitated, and glanced at her. She wouldn't know the difference, would she? No, I smiled. She wouldn't. I pulled open a drawer, and searched until I found my wallet. Digging around, I pulled out two twenty dollar bills and placed them inside Ellie's wallet. Thanks, but you need it more than I do. I gingerly put her wallet back where I found it, and went back to combing the knots out of my hair just in time to hear the beeping of the alarm startle Ellie awake.790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJySu2WfzWI
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr5vwQqGUVN
"I'm awake!" she announced, shooting out of bed. I laughed. "Relax, it's the first alarm. You have plenty of time until class to get ready."790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1h3JCU279o
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1MlmmygQAw
She breathed a sigh of relief. "Good. For a second I thought I slept in again. What day is it again?"790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDOgF14oFLE
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJiHZJWzz8P
"Monday."790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3v1CghhRDM
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtA1TQVzZvZ

"Why do you call it that?"790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡspXKEtE84J
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH0FXM7XlWj
"Just pass it to me. Please." I rolled my eyes, grabbing her deodorant and throwing it at her. It landed on her chest, causing her to make an "Oomph!" noise, but she accepted it all the same. "What do you have first again?"790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡju5jg4zjN6
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwl29L8MuaT
"Law." I glanced over at my textbook, a whopping seven hundred pounds to throw around.790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnE5nOzNKVB
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6AfKRXH2pJ
"Oh, yeah. How is law anyway? I've been considering switching." 790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLDqkeVLOSf

790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVugT7nBjjD
Ellie glanced to the side. "Maybe. What about you, Miss Lawyer?" 790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFsI2xqoFLt
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ23pHbRtTwx
I giggled. "Well, it's precisely that. You already know I'm going to be a lawyer. Why ask again?" 790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBg2Li19f9c
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrnZvVY7oxa

"So go for it." I checked my watch. "Shoot, gotta go. We'll continue this conversation later." I felt bad for cutting it short, but had to get to my classroom sooner rather than later. 790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhNZSzdvHSx

I slipped into my regular seat, in the middle of everything. Not too close to the front, but not too far at the same time. I like this spot, it made me feel blended in enough with the rest of the crowd to not freak out about trivial things. 790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXSmHc2bb8
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe7MRs2PVOU
"Ah, we meet again." The voice made me freeze in my spot, halting all attempts to set up my laptop and looking to my left to see him. 790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkSp16eRMyT
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7CWrHZ3WV
"Pip," I said. "What are you doing here?" 790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcAMpXndGPQ
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZlDl5LX5O
"Same as you. I'm here to learn." 790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcBJuzU4VKB
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh7Bc78p30T
I stifled a laugh, returning to unzipping my bag and booting up my laptop. "Really? You, of all people?" 790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7DZtRdDfO1
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOd97aRoDwQ
"Would you believe me if I told you I'm getting a Bachelor of Arts?"790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVd7HLLZbHc
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw9DgZpZTn4

790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ407D8xEouf
"I always sit in the back corner. Plus, I'm not always this early." He chuckled softly. 790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd59PUpiARm
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhljAbwWBA
"Hm, I'm not entirely sure about that story. It's a little suspicious. I'll choose to believe you for now, though." 790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcaYFGRe5Mz
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5KXpex0TE
"I'm honoured." He leaned back in his chair. I glanced at the front to see the teacher about to start his lesson. 790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbBzWgAlJlz
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3c5WAY2d49
"Get ready to learn." I smirked at him, my hands already poised to begin typing at a moments notice. Pip stayed the way he was through the whole lecture, not bothering to take any notes. I found myself wondering why he even bothered to show up if he couldn't make an effort to learn the material. I shook the thought away, telling myself to focus on the matter at hand.790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡitz1sktRit
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡizAZLgBpmH
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQc9fz9119v
The lecture finished almost as quickly as it had started. I did a quick scroll through my notes, three pages full of text. Oh, boy. That would be a monster to study. Shrugging, I closed the lid of my laptop and squished it in my bag.790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMzXN0UPtCx
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDhmxvJbK7I
"Catch you later," Pip said, waving as he walked out of the room. I still didn't understand what his interest was with me. It was a theory for another day, I suppose. 790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuaQ7E9hrm1
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvO2g7lwFJo
I strolled out of the room, my mind beginning to wander. It had to be around lunch time...my eyes spotted a vending machine and I made a beeline for it. Reaching into the side pocket of my bag, I pulled out my wallet. Black, standard, and not really much to it. I sighed. Maybe I should get one of those key chains or something, I thought. I put in some of my spare change, hitting the buttons C-4 and watching as my delicious bag of chips slowly unraveled from the metal coil. 790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZvtQwWW4y0
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt6zNHeYpFa
With a satisfying plop I went to claim my prize, some sweet Dill Pickle flavoured potato chips. I pulled the crinkly package open, slightly self-conscious that everyone was staring at me, and dug in. I got about three chips down when I heard my phone ring.790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ45m6O8M8Qg

I hummed along with it for a second, pressing the talk button and pressing the cool metal against my ear.790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡih8wDo4CUZ
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGosjNpzowT
"Hello?" I said.790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8elySXdJqg

"What's up, Marcus?"790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJlCo2x2R4d
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDUSw1ybPMc
"I've found a new case for ya. Woman and children killed in a fire, husband the only one left alive, police think he started the fire, standard crap."790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWodRFqNoLN
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxWpZ1b9fDf
I sighed. "Boring, but I'll take it. Where's the guy being held up at?" The faint sound of Marcus ruffling through papers and I got my answer.790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPZDwWH8kjB
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqLgdJvye6U
"Detention Center. You remember where that one is, right?"790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpqvhij69pN
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOrlqEGJZOT
"'Course. I'll be there asap. Guess I'll see you around, then."790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRNa9D1ReYX
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpZhWIDSwD
"Bye." I hung up the phone, sticking it back into my pocket. Did I have any other classes today? There was Psychology at three-thirty, so I have plenty of time to head over there. I crunched on the last of the chips, crinkling up the bag and throwing it in the trash. Next stop: Detention Center.790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDdYhalqL3
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxmdrANJthb
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ2vPQXRuST
It was always a dreary place, the Detention Center. It always made me feel as though there was some sort of impending doom that would strike this building, and this building only. Then again, those who were convicted here probably felt the same. As soon as I walked in the door, the stubbly, tired eyes of Marcus met mine.790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzUiHZ5XrvL
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuuNw9S7WN8
"Hey! You made it." He hurriedly walked towards me, giving me a quick briefing of who we were dealing with. "His name's William Foreson, a mill worker, father, etcetera. While the police are pinning this one on him, he keeps on pleading that he's innocent. You can clear this one up, right?" Marcus spoke rather quickly, but it was a trait I was very well accustomed to by now.790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZRfRv7Iyhc
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ27wJCQrgU
"Sounds simple enough. Can I talk to him?"790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBETSYNBKxs
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpYNVD0lXHP
"Yep. I've gotten the okay from the lady at the desk. He'll come to this spot right here." He guided her to the spot in question, which was as far away from other people as they could get. There was a thick wall of glass that separated the two rooms, and a phone for talking. I sat down patiently, and in a couple minutes a man approached the cubicle, nervously fiddling with his fingers. We both picked up the receivers.790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd0GhPlHkuq
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLsQEXEDurM
"Hello," I began.790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqVyzGJobHS
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ490oFmfXW
"Hi," he said hesitantly, his voice obviously exhausted and beaten down. He didn't look too good either. His blonde hair was matted and tangled, the shadow of a beard already thickly growing in, his aqua eyes hiding a tale of sadness that I couldn't decipher.790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Y1jSL7e3Q
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiqRDEhMCCI
"So you're William Foreson?" I inquired, pulling out a notebook and pen. He seemed to take on an even more ghastly look.790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtyfeABDZD4
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwRr9sp3H6Z
"You're not one of those reporters, are you?" His voice sounded defeated.790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOvGVEzFuT2
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEbwuoIkDnh
"Wha- of course not!" I objected. "Forgive me, I should have introduced myself. I'm Riley Rhea, a becoming lawyer. I'm here to help you."790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqu9cZHA4KU
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR25AscuGz6
"A becoming lawyer?" William questioned.790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRb3ouhveGT
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdKB6lVDMNE
"I'm...still in school," I admitted sheepishly. "But I have special...expertise that lets me take on cases. I've already helped solve a handful of other cases, and now I'm here to help you. Is that alright?" William nodded glumly. I couldn't tell if he simply didn't care or if he truly understood. Seeing as the glass between us was a problem, I couldn't just peer into his memories just yet. I suppose it was time to use what I had learned in school to my advantage.790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRFa3QmmwcX
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡocwR3sY88a
"So, I understand that you have recently experienced a great tragedy, William." I decided to start right into it, but not too harshly.790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡreYwkvtDjA
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtIg97dogZv
"Call me Will," he insisted. "I should've expected that was why you came to see me. Please, just know that from the bottom of my heart...I'm innocent."790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmfH8vDAYha
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhSbMtG8XKA
"I'm not here to convict you, Will," I assured him. "I want to prove your innocence. But, to do that, I need you to answer some questions. Are you willing to cooperate?" He nodded, his eyes boring into me still with that undefined sadness. I figured it must be from losing his family all at once - it would send anyone into a shock. I spent a good hour talking as much out of him as I could. It was a simple story, but a complex problem. According to Will's alibi, he was sleeping next to his wife when the fire started. He tried to save her as well as his two kids, but ultimately couldn't. One of the kids died shortly after getting to the hospital, and the other two within the burning building itself. I figured it wouldn't hurt to visit the building, but I'd have to do it later; my Psych class was approaching quickly.790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNnYTBA6doU

The evening air was sweet and cool to the senses. I walked across campus, having just finished putting my supplies back in my room, and sought to grab something small to eat. Normally I wouldn't eat out so often - two nights in a row was unheard of - but I felt no obligation to cook tonight, either. I had quite a bit of money to spare, as well, so I could afford another night. 790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlD0StBHZk8
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuAeM9ytSuq
"Where to, Riley?" I almost shouted, but quickly composed myself. "Oops, made ya jump." Pip bounced beside me, an eager smile playing his lips.790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPOx2IoHKN4
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAEejZ4iPfm
"What do you want?" I sighed.790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMPlNBQhUhe
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVoTZ2cm2sT
"I'm just tagging along. Where to?" he asked again.790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9123Tz9DpB
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfnFM1YsKsq
"I'm going to get something to eat." I wasn't quite sure why I told him the truth.790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKWAcWeZZSy
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBXFfRUwAIy
"Two nights in a row? You're going to be broke, and probably gain some weight while you're at it." 790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiXTZdYY9ha
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCbWe9m30mf
"Shut up!" I shot him a look. He seemed more pleased than anything.790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwEQa36E3NJ
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHyGCev4e7G
"But, I came here to ask you something." He stopped walking. So did I.790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJQuLiSem5
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvzphUQxn3S
"Out with it, then." I looked him in the eye. He had very deep, entrancing green eyes, and I found it difficult to stop looking once my gazed was fixed upon him.790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ1EVKYuspx
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTRPRs895O5
"Would you like to come on a picnic with me? I'll supply the food." He had a playful smile across his lips.790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZVkgdBBhd
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkVB5t40CWw
"A picnic?" I questioned. "Surely people don't go on picnics anymore in this day and age."790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Ssi4icMPo
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkkQEtnQ2Ks
"So then let's take a trip to the past." He took a step closer to me. "I'll make sure that nobody will make fun of us or anything, if that's what you're worried about."790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN9WIPRLCgH
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXaD1S0WDAG
"N-No, that's not it." I pondered the thought for a moment. "A picnic, then? Sure, I have nothing to lose. When?"790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Ulyk8me2b
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwXWVQOPP9m
"Tomorrow at noonish. I'll meet you on top of the hill behind the science building, okay?"790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU8AxfS15Y4
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW0C6pie3w9
"Okay." I smiled, opening my mouth to say goodbye.790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXFuV8rTkvH
790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4McYR6dzwD
"It's a date, then." Pip grinned, dashing away before I could say anything. As soon as the words sunk in I had to stop myself from yelling after him. A date? He couldn't be that foolish. Then again, I was the one who accepted...I shook the phrase from my head. Date or not, I needed to get some food in me now if I ever wanted to make it to tomorrow. I continued on my way, trying to decide on what I'd have for dinner instead. 790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsa0mdfnxcg

A-A new chapter? Of a story I haven't updated in a while?! Without warning?! Yeah, actually. I have good plans for this story as well as the others I've been working on, and I figured now would be a good time to update it. Why? I dunno, ask the author. ...wait. Er, anyway, I don't think I'll be updating this story that much in the near future, but I haven't forgotten about Riley and the gang. So here's an unexpected update for you all. Y'all.
