Who: Vicki Donovan & Jeremy Gilbert Where: Tower 1, #607 When: After this exchange Rating: TBD but probably mediumish for language at least Status: Complete
After she'd first been shown to the tower and her 'assigned' apartment, Vicki had thought she was okay. But while she was typing on her PDA, stretched across her bed on her back, she'd begun to hear things. Sounds. People. Heartbeats. Talking to Jeremy, Anna, and Rebekah had helped at first, but the sounds had begun to grow louder, and her hunger had grown right with them to the point that she was curled up in the corner of her bedroom, far away from her closed blinds, trying to keep from running after the sound of all those heartbeats.
They were starting to become so loud in her head - making that hurt almost as much as her stomach - that she nearly hadn't heard the knock at the door. Opening her eyes, she stared blearily at her bed for a moment, trying to listen. When the knock came a second time, she stood and put on a sudden burst of speed that took her out of the bedroom and to the main door of the apartment, PDA forgotten behind her on the floor. She reached out and unlocked the door, then pulled it open and gave a bright smile. "Jeremy," she said softly, gazing at him. She was so glad to see him there.
