Won't somebody help me chase these shadows away? Who: Marita, Billie, Open to Lilo, Terra, and Megan Where: I-1011 (Marita and Billie's room) When: Afternoon What: Girl Time!
Marita stared listlessly at their living quarters. It was strange to think she used to enjoy parties -- she had once lived for parties. She had loved throwing them in Germany -- it had made her feel special, sort of like a movie star. Now, here she was dreading it.
For the millionth time, she had to wonder what Billie had been thinking.
Not only were parties not her thing -- not Billie's thing -- but they had identities to protect. They were supposed to be the Windhams, Tessa and Denise, boring sisters from a boring world. How were they going to maintain that cover? Especially if either one of them had one of their...episodes.
They would just have to keep each other calm and get through the night.
There was a bowl of chips on the counter, accompanied by some dip. It was sort of a half-assed attempt to make it look normal, like she and Billie weren't dreading the arrival of their guests.
