X-Mansion: Wren & Charles
[Wren really, really didn't like the Mansion.
It was far away, and it felt like a lie. Even more than Italy, it felt like pretend, and maybe it was worse because it was almost like life. Italy wasn't living. Italy was really far in the past, and the language wasn't even right. Italy felt like a vacation, and it felt like maybe a dream. But Westchester felt like a mockery. It was a house that wasn't home, and it was furniture that wasn't hers, and it was quiet that would never, ever last. It was all make-believe, and Wren wasn't whimsical enough to pretend, not even when she was at her very least sane.
But, after the incident with Brielle, Wren knew she had to run. She couldn't go to Luke, and Jack and Evie didn't need any more trouble. She couldn't think of anywhere else, and she took a bus, phone tucked away and the hope that Luke wouldn't try to call or post to her. She wasn't sure what to tell Luke, and she wasn't sure if to tell him. Maybe they should've talked a little during their time in Italy, but she didn't want to ruin the pretend, and now she didn't know what to do.
She walked the last bit of the way, and by the time she showed up at the Mansion door she was messy and disheveled in red and ballerina flats with worn-through heels. She knocked, even though she knew she didn't have to.]
