The chores were done for the day, and for what they had done so far in the week since the students left, the castle looked pretty darn good. Ernie had gone back to floors today, something he was actually quite grateful for as he wasn't covered in soot anymore. He missed it though, a small part of him did, anyway. It kept his mind off of things, off of people. Rather than let his mind wander today, he scrubbed and scrubbed between each stone, painstakingly removing any dried on gum and ink.
Marco had so far been the bright spot in his day. Zach was a jerk, his stupid new boy toy was even worse, Tracey had completely thrown him for a loop with her offer, and Hannah was gone. Marco seemed to be the only normal thing about the whole day, really. Ernie was glad to meet him for a walk, though. The fresh air might so him a world of good right now that his mind was drowning in itself. It had been a rough week, though it had helped him realize a lot of things. About Zach, and about himself. Zach was selfish, he told himself bitterly, and he didn't feel bad thinking it either.
When he got to the entrance of the castle he leaned against the stone to wait, his gaze fixed on the grounds outside that were no longer bright green and blue. There was a slight orange hue cast over everything. The sun was starting to set and everything just looked... peaceful to him. Almost like the grounds were getting ready to call it a day, which, most of them were at this point.
