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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDXKhvXzfDJ
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzMmhTewH1n
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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS3caV1IsAZ
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB6XTXrxt2G
"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?"743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg03calqsBt
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0cVqpVTq47
"U-Uh..." I backed against the wall. "N-No, it's just...I c-can't say..."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfDQ1Bv7n7n
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTXlDIFtBog
"You can't say? Come on, enough bull!"743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB0YGf6mu2x
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPuQbfp2H0R
"I really can't...I'm sorry."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjl3ZU37Xuv
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3lF1gOiI56
"Tell me!" She narrowed her eyes, and swiftly pulled off my glove. "Hey!" I exclaimed.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ29kIjXSsj
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5vDIU6XPXa
"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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlAeu9pqTuO
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vKic8Hqsl
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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2tIevK5ofp
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ze49up3Gn
"I need to tell you something." I had said.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfwlHFsJRs2
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAXwZY1EXFJ
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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdtxkCyDSrA
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡspKQESklvb
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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm3diVKP8hu
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4vEk7IPblK
"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."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2tIepKdEN5
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ22ngNc37tv
She breathed a sigh of relief. "Good. For a second I thought I slept in again. What day is it again?"743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPKLSYOezRc
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhxaOlqL7lZ
"Monday."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZtFK811TZB
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ZgjT3SSuj
She made a face.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhnI6a0jBxo
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgW2AOxtRj6
"I have English first thing? My schedule is bogus."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMTXQvlW9Y1

743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy4lSl9ucWx
"Why do you call it that?"743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW8M0eDSY7V
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8tx6wprwan
"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?"743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJdaEhmqcs
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTPpe5MuUQy
"Law." I glanced over at my textbook, a whopping seven hundred pounds to throw around.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMzJnX4B9fO
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbYOdO8sTBb
"Oh, yeah. How is law anyway? I've been considering switching." 743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXX5O0r2aef

"It's not you, I'll say that much." I smiled. "You really don't have a plan, do you?"743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7LQbkRydpQ
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUKgCMXvyo1
Ellie glanced to the side. "Maybe. What about you, Miss Lawyer?" 743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN9N5Q9eaYp
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyvvgtTonjE
I giggled. "Well, it's precisely that. You already know I'm going to be a lawyer. Why ask again?" 743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPE1iEbUhMK
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYYjdAWuDHt
"I don't want to be an engineer." 743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXXdyylMPtO

"Do you think I'd make it as a Designer?"743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvnmKfzGhy5
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ1eZJ4Zu6S
"Like a fashion one?" 743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0eQiWEtT8P
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkKoZ3wmGZ5

743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV2xfYyUkUq
"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. 743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZbhVhE0qDA

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. 743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6NuIGvOU4i
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHW3HfGj0tx
"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. 743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQVLmjCowT
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3NlBgIRUam
"Pip," I said. "What are you doing here?" 743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzMKaNgjqFT
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnzwfYASua8
"Same as you. I'm here to learn." 743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNk9c1gABwR
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoqhkTETLf8
I stifled a laugh, returning to unzipping my bag and booting up my laptop. "Really? You, of all people?" 743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqzxgJP6JqK
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3cb9WjOFJ1
"Would you believe me if I told you I'm getting a Bachelor of Arts?"743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb0TzRHqJkb
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5H1Gm4thei
"Somewhat. I've never seen you here before, though. Explain that." 743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXodqcxTm7
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL032LoXuLl
"I always sit in the back corner. Plus, I'm not always this early." He chuckled softly. 743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcONIqvtx2f
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDhXgnij03q
"Hm, I'm not entirely sure about that story. It's a little suspicious. I'll choose to believe you for now, though." 743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Nrorqcov1
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCNxe0I9Rsx
"I'm honoured." He leaned back in his chair. I glanced at the front to see the teacher about to start his lesson. 743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1wnMP2BhsB
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡslPSx805cl
"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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZnA0RwcWy
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ejBJz9jR6
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOMbUnQsPLM
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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoj5JAoYLrW
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpe72VxsRr2
"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. 743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNLVULspfg2
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMnkpeTASty
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. 743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTFWjfAm1m
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡea09nCEN69
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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡswrFL3RlIY

I hummed along with it for a second, pressing the talk button and pressing the cool metal against my ear.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF1T1kcjBav
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJN3092buu
"Hello?" I said.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIIawBuzueS

"What's up, Marcus?"743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUBh7XXS5wI
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5NilvTSmM9
"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."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpRoFoczf1e
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1UOAagECm2
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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzXTRtaqibv
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2e0kDwIOMb
"Detention Center. You remember where that one is, right?"743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJbzVYQqmO5
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZQAej67Yk
"'Course. I'll be there asap. Guess I'll see you around, then."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6KukPYpew4
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvHXmWQ2zAw
"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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCqdlvbOOeC
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3xaop34x0l
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtP58L4Fdwq
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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBxJ2AatIC9
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5pUmh1TtpW
"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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7DhgCDfYBc
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVtoGWWaDW1
"Sounds simple enough. Can I talk to him?"743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2nuCkmMfeO
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQclQmPugLc
"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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLfGZoYz3JI
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkw4bZ7yY0Z
"Hello," I began.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeMKmi9nhnE
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIc7Wbk0zAh
"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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQtYVJb593
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxoh0aMPGXF
"So you're William Foreson?" I inquired, pulling out a notebook and pen. He seemed to take on an even more ghastly look.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJ02P9AcSb
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOu514pdXrt
"You're not one of those reporters, are you?" His voice sounded defeated.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmhqHnfhECn
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKDClKuie8Z
"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."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyxre5zg4eO
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3kPoabJvNk
"A becoming lawyer?" William questioned.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaW7x6hjc1S
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOE95HQGc9j
"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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGzVBTTq7nc
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIV5uhQcUUa
"So, I understand that you have recently experienced a great tragedy, William." I decided to start right into it, but not too harshly.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0O7WU8dh87
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsszf7m1KrH
"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."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjp67SKaEbC
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQeqdmBWd4W
"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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWM8rEOl3TZ

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. 743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTlsqU8GL7
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrRknVYtrSC
"Where to, Riley?" I almost shouted, but quickly composed myself. "Oops, made ya jump." Pip bounced beside me, an eager smile playing his lips.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Pw0BdJmII
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfV9Xw4EK4g
"What do you want?" I sighed.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYvNbbUVMYO
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCYguADX6xj
"I'm just tagging along. Where to?" he asked again.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDg8hTqNQm
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPZfGFPt05
"I'm going to get something to eat." I wasn't quite sure why I told him the truth.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYGFnA3GQSW
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBng4xyUFwv
"Two nights in a row? You're going to be broke, and probably gain some weight while you're at it." 743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8SY3EkCIFc
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmypHvOb923
"Shut up!" I shot him a look. He seemed more pleased than anything.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdMiPG9JQ1f
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbcY4XC2D0T
"But, I came here to ask you something." He stopped walking. So did I.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtLKcvDfaRZ
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKk85qfLEyb
"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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCf1WZxbin
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbRgxmwMDzO
"Would you like to come on a picnic with me? I'll supply the food." He had a playful smile across his lips.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgtPg1fP5Fb
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzSo2Y2TfXh
"A picnic?" I questioned. "Surely people don't go on picnics anymore in this day and age."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltwhqS2dEZ
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxrEB92KR6s
"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."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpgqKlsQ89
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjRm4s8ExHG
"N-No, that's not it." I pondered the thought for a moment. "A picnic, then? Sure, I have nothing to lose. When?"743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgWmcsb13do
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4MxA8n43o9
"Tomorrow at noonish. I'll meet you on top of the hill behind the science building, okay?"743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrRTLcM6zUO
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyUb5tAJHWT
"Okay." I smiled, opening my mouth to say goodbye.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9NM2KvQ2mg
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFM0qeAiLcY
"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. 743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPl6vDVYYI2

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.
