"TO change myself? No, no plans for that."

"I was planning to, yes," she confessed, "but I might be able to deviate from it if something more interesting pops up."

She rolled her eyes, "thanks, Kookie," she said, turning back to her phone. *He's such an idiot*, she thought to herself. "Have fun with that book."

OOC: cough cough christie and logan cough cough

OOC: LMAO, charlie ain't inviting Logan

"What Movie?" She asked, tilting her head, "I could invite Christie. I imagine she'll be wanting to talk to you and she can invite someone else." She figured, by inviting her sister onto something...mundane, it could help bridge their relationship. Put them into a position where the elephant in the room could be ignored.

OOC: ofc 💁🏻‍♂️ but maybe Christie would

OOC: ofc

"Unfortunately, I've always been a sucker for the romance films," she conceded, "but I can sit through a thriller. I bet Christie would too." With that, she sent her twin a text.

She looked down to check it before shrugging, "in all honesty...I adore the historical movies but they never show it really."

"They prefer romance, comedy, thriller or action," she said, "the people around here anyway so anything that deviates from it...tends to be pushed to the side." She shrugged, "it doesn't matter, just means I have to travel more to get the ones I want...which I doubt I can anymore. Um..." she trailed off as she began to type out 'Basement boy's asking me out to the movie. Come? Invite someone else if you want.' She paused before adding on ':)' then sent it. "So I settle with the Romance ones. Easy to watch."

She turned her phone off, "she's coming," she said, "when is it? And...both really."

"Why...why don't we meet you at the theatre? Makes it easier for all of us. 7:15?"

"I can imagine," she said, "I'm sure she'll be happy to see you as well."

"Why wouldn't she? Not like you kidnapped me and locked me in your basement."

"She only met you for five minutes, in a stressful situation," she pointed out, "but...I could be wrong. She could hate your guts. Could be possessive...though, I think I'm more possessive than she is."

"Exactly," she said, "well, I'll see you tonight?"

OOC: Timeskip?

Movies=

She stood in front of the theatre, alone, and rubbed her arms as she hid under the shadows. Uncharacteristically, she wore nothing but a grey hoodie and a pair of black jeans with a pair of converse. Her face, usually done up, was all natural. She might have gotten dressed up but she found no one really recognised her in such a state, so she could get away undetected.

She instantly found him and gave him a soft smile in return, "stranger? We saw each other less than twelve hours ago," she joked, "nice hair. Very slick."

She bit her cheek, "so did I," she agreed, "but...guess she wanted to come with her friend. It...doesn't matter."

OOC: are Christie and Logan coming together?

OOC: I think so, lets go with that

"I can deal," she said with a shrug, glancing away, gazing at the crowd.

She glanced up, looking around Kaz, "oh, look, they're-" she broke off when she saw Logan and she slowly blinked, her jaw dropping.

Looking towards her sister, for a moment, she was glaring at her before her expression became impassive and she looked back to Kaz. "They're here," she said, moving to the side, crossing her arms over her chest.

"I'm glad you could make it," she said to Christie, her eyes digging into her, "kept us waiting."

She bit back a sigh but allowed herself to drag Christie into a hug, her eyes beginning to dart between Logan and Kaz, growing confused. *They knew each other?*

Her heart dropped at the words, settling in her stomach, and she stepped away from Christie, shoving her hands into the pockets of her jacket, to hide the shaking. "Family?" She echoed.

Her eye twitched, turning to glare at Logan, mouthing 'are you fucking kidding me?'

She took a deep breath before standing between them, a thin smile on her face. "Is this some prank you guys are pulling?" She asked, "I mean...what are the chances of this actually being true."

She mentally cursed before shaking her head, walking back to Christie, "you could have brought anyone, Selene, Jax, Chris, I don't know, but you brought the one person I asked you not to pursue."

"Of course I care who you hang out with," she said, "didn't I warn you off Luc? Look how that turned out. So trust me, stay away from Logan. Please."

She rolled her eyes. "He's a guy," she said, articulating it slowly. "They all say that. The whole "oh he's so different" and "I've never met someone like him before" and "oh, he's such a gentleman.'. Seven months later: cheats on you and leaves you pregnant."

"I do *not* sleep around. I haven't slept with someone for nearly seven months," she argued. "Not that it's any of your business. Go sleep with someone else. Jax. I don't know. Anyone but him."

She stared at Christie, paling slightly at the notion of Luc, before shaking her head. "Whatever, do what you want. Just don't think I'll be hanging around too much," she said before turning to glare at Logan. "I know this is a reunion and everything but the movies starting in a few. We can ditch it and you guys can go get a drink or something?"

She turned to glare at Christie, her lips playing on a scowl, before brushing into the theatre, not bothering to give her a reply.

She was at the counter, buying the tickets, not looking behind her to see if they actually followed.

She turned to see Christie disappear into the bathrooms and for a moment, she was tempted to follow but she didn't. Instead, she headed to the waiting area, slipping a coin into one of the arcade games.

She cursed under her breath as she died and slid another one in, beginning to mash the buttons with her fingers.

She took a sideways glance to Christie before back to the screen. "Aren't you the proper princess," she muttered, "guess they finally got to you in the six months."

"You don't know shit, Christina, don't go assuming I left because of non existent pressure," she said, her nostrils flaring slightly, "and it wasn't daunting, actually, it was a relief."

She stopped to stare at her, leaning her hip against the game, "I worked at a supermarket. I lived in a shack that was practically falling down. Prague was a dump. It wasn't a vacation. If I wanted a vacation, I would have taken one to the magnitude of castles and mansions that your family owns."

She was silent for a moment. "That I can't change," she said, glancing over to the door. Where were they?

She took another look at Christie before giving her a small smile, "yeah, guess so," she said before finally spying the boys.

"Of course," she said, kicking herself off the gaming system, "waiting for you," she said, walking over to the podium to give the attendant their tickets.

She raised an eyebrow at the girl and the 'old' Charlie reared her head, wanting to snap at her and ask her who she was to think she could talk to her like that, but she just pursed her lips, her grip on the tickets tightening and she brushed into the secluded area to look for the door to the theatre they were meant to go into.

"You think people would show a little bit more respect," she muttered before looking around for her sister and Logan. "So...he's your brother?"

She followed his gaze and frowned. "He doesn't really look like you," she said, "or maybe I'm not looking too hard."

"I know," she agreed, "people like to point it out for some reason, probably wondering how Christie missed out on all the good genes," she joked, winking over a him.

"Of course I am," she said, "I'm a-" she stopped herself there and redirected that sentence, "I was always going to be something. Not in my nature to stay in the shadows."

"Hm..?" She hummed, looking over at him with a blink, "oh, nothing, nothing important."

She raised an eyebrow at him, taking in the wary tone. "Yeah, I'm sure," she said her tone more firm, before jerking her chin to the theatre. "This is it."

{{LoganWb|"No," he said, "like why she doesn't."}]
