RP: Procrastinated Discussions Characters: Lily, James, possibly Lily, Balthazar after Time/Date: afternoon, September 18 Location: James' room Warnings/Rating: Angsty McAngsterson Summary: Lily bites a bullet and talks to James, then goes to get a hug from Balthazar Status: Complete
Lily was in no more of a rush to have this discussion now than she had been before she'd gone to bed four nights ago. However, putting it off wouldn't make it go away, and if she wanted to move on -- such as it was -- she really needed to get this out of the way. She hadn't messaged Balthazar yet (though she'd wanted to), but she assumed he'd seen Jaime's notice posted and ... what? Was waiting on her to initiate contact?
Perhaps after this ... discussion ... she'd go say hello to him in person.
Or perhaps she'd go hide in her room for a bit. She had no idea how it was going to go, nor what they each were going to take from it. But she at least knew a few things. She couldn't be with James. Not like this. Not with the difference in their ages, slight though it may be. Not with his current level of maturity. She wasn't ready to be the to-be wife of ... a schoolboy.
It was depressing and she didn't know exactly how to handle this situation. Nothing prepared her for it, but what ever could have? Where did they teach 'Breaking Up with Your Too Young Fiance 101', really? Did it even count as a breakup, since he wasn't dating her?
Either way, she had to talk to him, to ensure they were on the same page if only to clear her conscience on the matter.
So it was that she made her way to James' room, rapping soundly on the door.
