The week had kind of gone by in a blur for Nicci, to be honest. The job had been a good one, she'd known that much, but she'd started off the trip rather pouty at her parents refusal to allow the twins to go with her. They weren't even in school at the moment, so Nicci could think of no excuse for that kind of bullshit, especially so close to her birthday, so she had decided that they had to be passive aggressively punishing her for... something. She wasn't sure what. Maybe moving out, could they still be huffy over that? Maybe changing her major again. Her old man didn't have much to worry about these days, so he seemed to feel the frequent need to butt his nose into her business.
Nicci was lying on her stomach in the sun, mostly over the slight now. They'd go back home tomorrow, and as soon as the jet lag wore off she'd have the full moon and then her birthday party to throw herself into. All was well. Though she actually snorted at Fluffy's explanation. "Jesus," she said, before taking a drag and holding it in. She eventually let it out in a burst of giggles. "Just so you know, the word 'suckle' is never hot. Also, we do have cash." She thought they did anyway. Probably. Somewhere. Who fucking knew, really.
