Who: Claudia Lloyd and Open tag. When: Sometime after school. Where: The Mall. What: Claudia takes time off.
Arthur had been rather suprised when Claudia had told him that she needed a ride to the mall. She never really ever asked him for favours, knowing that he'd most likely make her do something stupid in return. Arthur was like that, always hairbrained schemes and dares. She had grown used to it over the years...but it didn't mean that she wanted any part of it. Certainly she didn't want to be pulled in when he thought of some other 'grand gesture' for Columbine. Honestly, Claudia thought that the blond was a ditz and should have stuck to Puddle, or whatever her ex-boyfriend's name was.
And now she was walking aimlessly along, looking through shop windows and half rolling her eyes. Maybe she could look for a job. Money was money though Claudia couldn't think that she could stomach retail. She would probably end up setting someone's hair on fire and she wasn't even a pyro.
It was just too bad that North Cornway was just a dinky little town. Claudia stopped in front of a window display consisting of stuffed animals and was reminded that she should probably go and get some food before taking the bus back to school.
