Re: Lennon and Kiley - 8ish
Kiley was kind of relieved her weird mood swings that day had maybe some kind of explanation. She wasn't sure if it was really Them, but it made sense if it was happening to a lot of people in the house. It didn't seem to alleviate how she was feeling, however. She had gone through an intense bout of anger before the ridiculous party downstairs that left one of her lamps broken. After screaming into her pillow for several moments, her adrenaline seemed to seep out of her completely, leaving her laying on her bed, face buried in the soft pillow, trying to refocus and regroup.
Eventually she pulled on her dress, but left her feet bare. She saw no reason to kill herself by shoving her feet into high heels, or wearing jewelry. That just wasn't Kiley. It was enough that she put on a dress, for Christ's sake.
She forgot all about her own clothing when she saw Chase dressed in his. He cleaned up nice, and it was all Kiley could do not to just forget the party all together and strip him right back out of his clothes. In any case, they found the billiards room full of people and various dishes, and Kiley grabbed a water, heading over to Lennon when Chase wandered toward the food.
Kiley twisted the cap off of her water and slipped onto the stool beside him, her eyes wandering over him appreciatively. "You look really hot."
