Marcey

As Kylee made her entrance, everyone else made their exits. She waited for Kylee to catch up as she hurried behind the guy from the fire who was leading them back to the school. She felt stupid. Words were not even an option as they wandered back on campus. With silence, came memories. Haunted forests where she and Declan had survived on Halloween, where he would say "Run!!!" and fall just so she would get scared. She never ran though. Even when her life could have been in danger, she stayed to make sure he got to his feet. The conclusion of her thought came as she stepped up to the door she had exited on her way from the building. She held the door open for Kylee, hoping she wasn't listening in. She stepped inside and started walking down the halls past the photo that had sent her running. She turned to Kylee as they passed it, hoping to avoid the thought of him. "Sorry about that"she knew that she had caused a little two much trouble the first day. "Sometimes I just get a little nervous. I don't like tight spaces I guess.. " She couldn't think of the word to match her own excuse. "Claustrophobic, that is" It hit her in enough time to see the photo behind them. She wandered for a bit, tracing the steps she hadn't realized she had picked up, eventually finding her way back to their room. She unlocked it quickly with her own key, and stared at Kylee. "Thank you again.. " she said as she stumbled to her bed and collected her night clothes, placing the photo of her and Declan face down on the table.
