One Last Hurrah
Who: Frances and Niamh
Where: Places! The Landers' house at least.
When: Afternoon
School started tomorrow. This meant Frances needed to have fun and she needed to do it fast. Of course Frances wasn't sure exactly what she was going to be doing for that fun but someone had to have an idea better than she did. Somebody had to be throwing a party or doing anything more fun than hanging out with their two year old sister on their last day before purgatory.
So Frances decided there needed to be a quest of sorts to find something to do, and who better to drag along on a quest than Niamh. It wasn't really a quest, not really, but Frances was going to call it a quest because quest sounded a lot cooler than anything else she could come up with. Frances also wasn't going to let Niamh spend her last day by herself, holed up in her room listening to dark music or something like that. They needed to have fun!
Frances changed out of the pajamas she'd spent the day bumming around in and into an outfit she thought appropriate for whatever might come along that night. Then she pretty much ran from the house before anyone could ask her to do anything, hightailing it to the Landers' house without even a warning to her friend that she was coming over. She made it there in what she deemed record time and then realized oh hey, she probably should have called. What if Niamh had plans? What if she wasn't home? What if she was being forced into family time or something else equally weird. What if her mom answered? Frances couldn't help it if Niamh's mom was a tiny bit scary to her.
Tugging her cell phone from her pocket, she dialed the other girl's number and waited, talking as soon as it clicked over. "Niaaaamh, save me. I can't spend my last day before school ends with my little sister. It would be sad and pathetic. We need to do something. Oh and I'm already out front of your house."
