Stephanie Mariana Clarity Fawcett is quirky. (impermanence) wrote in wished,
It might just have been her imagination, but Stephanie was pretty sure that Stephen didn't want her to go to Paris. Despite what he was saying, she had the advantage of hearing just how quickly his heart was thumping in his chest. That wasn't an 'it's all okay' rhythm. Even if his voice was even, his heart was not.
"Maybe, but I still don't know if I really want to go...it makes me uneasy to think about it. I like Paris better in the Spring anyway," Stephanie hadn't said yes to her sister yet, but she hadn't said no either. Jolene experienced Paris through shopping, and Stephanie experienced it through the beauty of the city itself. Plus...leaving Stephen made her depressed and incredibly uninspired.
"Fall is fantastic though. I remember that quite vividly. I think it turned the air completely blue," she laughed softly, "Oh, and then there was that time when we decided we wanted to make jack-o-lanterns around Halloween and I got so incredibly detailed with it that it took hours to finish. Should I apologize again for throwing those pumpkin guts at you?"
