For months now, Lydia has been considering a change. She'd quietly turned nineteen, hadn’t had a significant episode of her abilities taking control of her in months, and wanted to move on with her life. It was a big step, moving in with her boyfriend, working and going to school like a normal person, but it was the kind of normal that she wanted in her life. Lydia had never wanted anything to do with the supernatural. She'd become a part of it unwillingly, and while she loved and would never want to give up her friends, she didn't want it to control her life.
Continuing to live with Derek when she didn't have to was starting to feel like she was just submitting to her abilities, letting them decide for her.
She and Thomas had looked at apartments, it was astonishing just how cheap things ran here, had done the math and it looked feasible. It looked more than feasible. Lydia could almost manage it alone, which was important to her too. All there really was was to say yes to it. And let Derek know she'd be leaving.
Lydia found him in the kitchen, stood beside him at the counter, and simply announced: “I think I'm moving out.”
