Who: Klaus Hargreeves and OPEN
What: Waking up on an Island
Where: The beach
When: Friday afternoon
Klaus was charming. That was how he got away with things-- well, with Pogo and Grace anyway. Reginald rarely ever gave Klaus enough time to speak to charm him. The funeral was hard… it had been hard on everyone… and even though he could still sometimes see Ben it wasn’t the same. And the way Reginald looked at him, the way he had laid into all of them… Klaus knew that it was all his fault. Klaus knew that Reginald wished that he had been the one to die instead of Ben.
He’d asked their mother for sleeping pills. He said he was having a very hard time getting to sleep considering what had happened and she obliged him… she usually did. The harder one was Pogo, but even he took pity on Klaus sometimes. He’d basically begged Pogo for additional sleeping pills. He didn’t want to be bothered by ghosts, he’d told him, not tonight.
So, he’d taken four sleeping pills and half a watered down flask of some clear bottle off Reginalds lowest shelf (something he wouldn’t miss too much). But that didn’t explain how he’d woken up on a beach…
There was a pier in the City, but not a beach like this with palm trees and a quaint little village behind it. He couldn’t even see skyscrapers. Gods, he was warm though, and pulled off his blazer. He didn’t remember falling asleep in his uniform. He didn’t remember sneaking out of the house. But that was hardly the first time he’d done stuff like that without remembering.
His mouth was dry and mealy. He’d need to get some water and figure out where he was. Surely the town would have a cafe or something where he could beg for a drink.
