Holly's Fourteenth Birthday

First topic message reminder :

Holly glanced once again in her portable mirror, unconvinced.
"You look fine," Riley said, "Seriously. Can I eat cake now?"
"Not yet doll," Holly said grinning, and examined the landscape, "People will be arriving soon.....THEN you can eat cake,"
She laughed.

Natalie took her jacket and placed it over the dolls to keep them warm.

Holly cocked her head to the side, a thing she always did and smiled.

Natalie should have know what would happen, and thats exactly what did happen.

Tiffant began to pull more 'cover' over herself...and the next minute, Chucky said, "Tiff...Tiff wake up...gimme some cover....please."

But Tiffany was a heavy sleeper.

Chucky pulled more of the jacket over himself, and hugged Tiffany again. Meanwhile, Tiffany began to talk in her sleep, which caused Glen to open one eye and Chucky to give a little moan of disapproval.

"No...was he there?...no...yes...ANSWER THE BLOODY QUESTION!" said Tiffany in her sleep.

"And this is what it's like every night," said Natalie to Hayley and Holly.

"Weird," Holly said squinting and drinking a little more.

"Either this...or they're off doing other stuff somewhere...probably behind a chair in the common room...and I have to take Glen to bed with me to protect him from the 'Monsters' that hide in the dark," said Natalie.

"Eurgh," Holly said shivering, "Those dang monsters are everywhere."

"I know," said Natalie, "though I reacon he's just refering to the nightmares he had in the past."

Hayley winced, "Eew," she said.

"He's just like a normal child really...only in a doll body" said Natalie, looking at Glen affectionately, "I mean...he requires the same amount of care...and possibly more love...poor little thing...he's not at all like his mother and father...you know, the killing thing...but they do take care of him...and he's growing up fine really...it's just I worry about him sometime, you know...he still had dreadful nightmares somethings."

"AW,"
Holly then began to sing, "The Black Parade".
"WHEN I WAS- A YOUNG BOY-"

"My father-," started Hayley, but stoped when she felt a stabbing pain in her left arm.

"TOOK ME TO SEE-"
Holly looked concerned.

Hayley winced, then smiled slightly, "It happens often. S'all good," she said.

"Oh good," Holly said, "I was worried,"

Hayley smiled faintly, her brow slightly furrowed, "Don't," she said, faking a small smile.

"What? I was kidding dude dont take offence you know I love you...."
Holly had love in her voice, though it was impossible to love when you had a black heart.

"I can't get used to this whole 'you-being-death-eater' thing at all," said Natalie sadly.

Hayley frowned. She was hoping her worst fear wouldn't come true, that her friends would leave her for what she had become, "I'm sorry guys," she said after a moment.

"We aint gonna leave you for what you have become," Holly said wisely.

"It wasn't even your fault anyway," said Natalie.

"Yeah," Holly said, "So there,"

"That's right," said Natalie.

"That is correct," Holly said nodding, as if that settled it.

((Luce we are walkin, will you come up about one?))

"Exactly," said Natalie.

((Aye ok...I'll see you then sweetie))

"Abso-TOOTLY," Holly said punching the air with her fist.


(((Alright then.....SWEETIE))

"YAY!" yelled Natalie, but then smelt something very appatising.

"Alright...." she said quietly, "someone has an open wound in this room and there blood smells so good I need to leave the room for a moment."

NAtalie exited swiftly and gracefully.

"Nat," Holly warned, "That's me,"
She held up her paper cut finger.

Natalie walked out of the room.

She took out a blood pop from her pocket and began to suck at it feverishly.

"That'll work," Holly said rolling her eyes.
Riley began to dance alone, a little sadly.
"C'mere you nerd," Holly said.

Natalie walked back in, blood pop still in her mouth.

"That's better...so what were you saying Holly?" Natalie asked.

"I dunno," Holly said, lost in Rileys eyes.

"Ok...I'll leave you two kids alone," she said, grinning to herself.

"No no," Holly said, snapping out of it, "Dont bother its alright ...."

"Sure?" Natalie asked.

"Yeah ... " Holly murmured.

"Ok," said Natalie, coming back.

Holly grinned at her.
"Sup Nat? We missed you. Right Ri?"
"Sure," Riley said rolling his eyes.

Natalie grinned at Riley.

"Is that a Vans top Rils....it's nice," complimented Natalie.

"Thanks!" Riley said, as Holly coughed.

"What was that Holly?" Natalie asked.

"Nothing," Holly said grinning, "Nothing nothing."

"Suuuuure it wasn't," said Natalie.

Holly grinned and flicked her.

Natalie flicked her back.

Holly flicked Riley for no reason.

Natalie flicked Chucky, who flicked Natalie back, who flicked him again. Then Chucky flicked Riley.

Riley, very offended with all the flicking, yelled out.
"HOLLY! THEY'RE BULLYING ME!"

NAtalie wagged a finger at Chucky.

"LEAVE ME ALONE! YOU'RE NOT MY REAL MUM!" Chucky yelled.

Natalie looked at Chucky and grinned.

"You're old enough to be my father," Natalie reminded.

"Oh yeah.... you lose track when you're this size," said Chucky, laughing at himself.

"YOU ARENT MY REAL RILEY!" Holly said, shaking Riley.
"I AM!" he yelled.
"Oh sorry," Holly said sourly.

"Ok...that was weird from where I'm standing," said Tiffany.

"Yes....twas," Natalie agreed.
