What the.. I deleted that post!))
~Monday/8:30~
Quin smiled and jogged inside the house, throwing her dufflebag on Hale and running into the kitchen. She looked inside the fridge and grabbed a few eggs, milk, flour, and so on and mixed everything from memory.
Crepes; something her mother had taught her to make before... Well, before she found out about Quin's abilities. She flipped the thin crepe on the pan and heard a voice behind her.
"Oh, hey." She turning around, still holding the pan steadily with the crepe inside and blinked when she saw Asher leaning on the wall behind her.
"Hi, I'm making crepes. Wanna help?" she didn't mention that cooking made her feel better when she was stressed or frustrated or both.

Ooc; I got the alert straight away since I was online so I saw it before you deleted it c:
-Monday, evening-
"Looks like you have it under control." he smirked at her, before walking towards her before she turned around to the stove. He took the pan from her hand and placed it on the stove behind her. Asher smirked down at her, their chests almost touching.
He leaned towards her, putting an arm behind her and grabbed his phone that was busy charging behind her. He walked back out the kitchen, "Oh Quin, make me one please." He smiled, gave a wink and walked back towards the kitchen.
He ran and jumped in the air, landing on Hale on the couch he screamed. "Hey mate." Asher smiled down at his friend, who was being pinned down.
Hale rolled his eyes, "Get off." Asher did so and sat on the couch. His phone vibrated again and again and Asher took it out his pocket to see it was an unknown number. "Everyone get in here and be quiet." Hale shouted throughout the house as him and Asher recognized the number.
Hale paused the movie and Asher answered the phone when everyone was in the room and put speaker on. "Hello?" Asher asked, staring wide eyed at Hale who returned the wide eyed look.
"Hello Asher." said Alaska. Asher almost groaned, this should be interesting.

~Monday/8:45 p.m.~
Quin smiled and started turning back to the stove to put the pan down when Asher leaned towards her and grabbed the pan gently and set it down back on the stove. "Uh..Thanks."
She felt him grab the phone she had noticed earlier and and she stared up at him curiously. Before she could say anything else, he left her in the kitchen and winked.
"Oh Quin, make me one please."
"Whaddya want in it?" she yelled after him into the living room, laughing as she saw him land on a very red Hale. Then she her sensitive ears caught Asher's phone ringing; the one he had grabbed from behind her.
"Everyone get in here and be quiet," she heard Hale yell to the people upstairs.
She came ran to the kitchen and turned off the stove before setting herself on the couch across from Asher and waited.

-Monday, night-
"What can I do for you, Alaska?" Asher started, his tone flat. He gave the phone to Hale as his hands began to shake. He was frustrated and a little bit nervous.
"I just want to talk, about what happened and apologize." Alaska said softly into the phone. Asher sighed. "I'm outside, can I come in?" she asked. Asher's eyes widened and he looked at Hale who shrugged, suddenly grumpy.
Asher looked at Hale confused, looking deep into his eyes to try understand what his best friend was thinking but Hale turned away. Asher ended the call, rubbed his hands together and got up off the couch.
He opened the door and took a step back as Alaska slammed into him with a hug. Asher just stiffened before eventually putting his arms around her to return it, although it was stiff.
They walked into the lounge together, Asher with his hands shoved into his pockets. "Hey everyone!" Alaska smiled sweetly, but almost giving a small glare at the girls in the room. "Can we go to your room, Ashy?" Alaska asked, smiling up at Asher and running her fingertips down his arms. Asher sighed, nodding and leading the way.
Asher closed the door, leaned against it and listened to Alaska apologize and her argument for doing what she had done. Asher sighed, rubbing his eyes, "It's not that simple, Alaska."
"Just give me a chance?" she pleaded. Asher just nodded at her, maybe she had changed? Didn't everyone deserve a second chance? She smiled.
"You're not staying over though. We're taking it slow." Asher told her, she pouted but then nodded.
Asher led them out and back towards the lounge. "Bye everyone." She smiled, giving a little wave. "Bye Ash." She smiled up at Asher, before standing on her tippy toes and kissing Asher on the cheek.
Asher opened the door and closed the door behind her before going to back to the lounge to answer the questions.
"Do not tell me you did what it think you did." Hale said to Asher. Asher just nodded, groaning and covering his face with his hands. Hale let out a sigh of disbelief. "And just like that, Asher takes Alaska back as his girlfriend" Hale shook his head.
Asher looked up and around the room. "It's not like that, I said we could try be friends again." Asher argued, although quietly.
"Not for long." one of the other boys across the room said, winking.

I'm switching point of view, if you don't mind. I feel more comfortable in this one <3
~Monday/9:00 p.m.~
Alaska? Why would she call right now, here? Don't tell me she was joining us. I smirked at her as she walked through the door.
She glared discreetly at all the girls around me, but as she walked up the stairs, Alaska bared her teeth silently directly at me. I smiled.
After waiting in silence for what seemed to be an hour, I stood up and walked over to the stairs, leaning against the railing impatiently. Thankfully, both of them seemed to be done with their conversation.
Asher and Alaska. Walking down the stairs. From Asher's room.
I barfed in my mind as I watched Alaska peck his cheek and sashay out the door. Good Riddance.
I stared at Asher, silently demanding an explanation. Seems like even the one I had made the best connections with this year was going to throw me away for some.. some.. I'm not going to say the word, but you get the idea.
I walked over to the couch and seeing that Asher would not answer, pulled my duffelbag from under a random girl's rear knocking her to the ground, and walked up the stairs coolly to set up my 'bed'.

ooc; no problem!
-Monday, night-
"Now looked what happened." Hale rolled his eyes at Asher. Asher shifted uncomfortably. "Go explain to her." Hale told his friend, rather sternly. "I'll explain down here." Hale said before Asher could even open his mouth.
Asher was grateful for his friend who knew exactly what was going on. He saluted at his friend before going up the stairs two at a time.
"Quin?" He asked, looking into one of the spare rooms and spotting her. "Hey, um." He began, scratching the back of his neck awkwardly. "Listen, I need to explain what's happening, it's just a pretty sore subject still." Asher began, he patted the spot next to him on the bed.
Asher began to explain of what had happened with Alaska in the holidays before school began. They were a couple, and apparently the cutest around. Asher was also best friends with another guy, and Alaska secretly was going out with Asher's ex-best friend. Asher caught them one day and ended the relationship immediately.
Asher just looked down at his lap once he had finished explaining.

~Monday/10:00 p.m.~
I was on her sleeping bag staring blankly at the ceiling. Already, I was becoming cast out. At least this time, I had lasted for more than a day.
I heard feet climb up the stairs and bolted upright on the floor. "Oh, it's you." Asher stood at the doorway.
This was the first time I had actually seen him awkward, and of course, it was because his new girlfriend just came to see him.
"Listen, I need to explain what's happening, it's just a pretty sore subject still."
Offering to explain things? Now this was interesting. I climbed beside him grudgingly and kept my eyes away from his face.
Listening half-heartedly to his explanation, I wrung her hands together nervously. After he was done, I looked at him slowly, and I could feel my eyes getting wet. "At least you had a chance to be in a perfect relationship, be the 'cutest around', and have a close friend, at least for a while."

-Monday, night-
Asher looked up, grabbing Quinn's chin gently and turning her face towards his. He looked deeply into her eyes, trying to understand.
"It was a toxic relationship. What's so good about that?" Asher whispered, still looking at her and holding her face so she would have to make eye contact.
"I'm a good guy, Quin, you don't have to worry about me leaving without a good enough explanation or hurting you. I don't do that." Asher told her, still whispering.
His watch beeped and he sighed, moving away, and getting up off the bed. "Let me know if you need anything, or need anyone to talk to." Asher offered, closing the door behind him as he left the room.
He went back to the lounge, saying good night to everyone, and walked to his bedroom with Hale following. Asher spotted Ruby already sleeping in her dog bed in the corner of his room.
Asher and Hale caught up on their work and finished all that needed to be done. Asher left his door open a crack and changed quickly before climbing into bed. Hale climbed into the single bed across Asher's. "Good night, Asher." Hale whispered.
"Good night, Hale." Asher replied. Asher forgot everything that happened that night, the confusion from Alaska and what he had felt when he was Quin, and fell asleep as he was exhausted.

I shook my head after he had left the room, remembering only part of what he said.
"I'm a good guy, Quin, you don't have to worry about me leaving without a good enough explanation or hurting you. I don't do that."
Oh, really? Prove it, I thought as I drifted into blank, dreamless sleep.
___________
~Tuesday/5:00 p.m.~
I woke up to an alarm on my watch I had forgotten about and jumped up from my crumpled sleeping back, hitting my head on the wall beside me.
"Darn," I hissed, studying a small patch of red on the hand that had covered the wound. What a way to start the day.
Might as well have a run, I thought as I changed into black yoga pants and a white, almost blue sweater with my dark blue tanktop underneath. I grabbed my earbuds and jammed them into my pocket.
Running down the stairs, I realized that somebody had reached the door before me.

Ooc; 1. I assume you mean 5am? 2. This will be my last post for today. Currently 0:10 xD Need to get up early to horse ride before it's too hot.
-Tuesday, morning-
Asher stretched and looked at the clock next to him, almost 5am. He groaned, rolling out of bed, and glanced outside. It was still dark, and it looked cold, but Asher changed into running shorts and decided against a shirt.
He sneaked out his room, calling Ruby, and walked towards the door where he sat on the floor and tied his running shoes before cuddling Ruby until it was a bit lighter outside.
Asher heard footsteps and saw Quin, "Morning." He said, remembering what he had done last night, and blushed slightly. He got up off the floor, clipped a lead on Ruby and headed out at a slow jog, deciding to take the forest trails.
He hummed along to the one earbud playing his favourite music softly in his on ear, the other listening out for danger. He reached a clearing with a river and stopped, allowing Ruby to drink some water before turning around to jog home but a little bit faster than before.
He reached home, grabbed a granola bar and ate it quickly on his way to his bedroom. It was still fairly early, but Asher shook Hale awake who just groaned at him.
Asher chuckled and headed to his en suite to shower quickly. He chose his clothes for the day, as it was slightly cooler today. It was easy enough to pull on his skinny jeans and black tshirt with white sneakers and a brownish jacket.
Once again he shook Hale, pushing him into the bathroom to get ready for school. Asher glanced at his phone while waiting in the living room when Hale came bounding down the stairs.
Asher opened the group chat, typing quickly, Hale and I are leaving for school, see ya there. Last one out please lock door, key is on kitchen counter, and just give it to me at school, thanks. :)
Climbing upon his motorbike, with Hale behind him, they hurried off to school as they were a little behind time already.

~Tuesday/5;30~
I glanced at Asher curiously and started out the door, rounding the forest and arriving back at Asher's house out of breath. I ran to my room straight after that and picked out a simple outfit.
A white, cross-backed crop top with light denim jeans and black sandals. and I left my hair down this time, and wrapped a headband around my wrist, just in case.
I drove to school this time, and arrived just in time to see Asher and Hale walk through the front doors. I hurried after them but stopped before I rammed into a red-haired girl in front of her.
I soon recognized her and stared at Song, blinking.
"Ya know, a 'Hi, how are you?' would be nice," Song smiled awkwardly, taking a few steps backwards. I swallowed and smiled again.
"Hi, how are you, after you slipped on the floor and banged my nose until it bled like someone had dissected it?" I grinned sarcastically. She bit her lip and blushed, her bright green eyes flushing.
"I'm incredibly sorry 'bout that," she replied uneasily. I laughed and patted her shoulder. "That's fine, Song. Just be a bit more careful."
"Come on, let's get inside before we get a tardy," I grinned and dragged her arm through the doors.

-Tuesday, before class-lunch-
Asher walked through the crowded halls, squeezing past people in the rush to get his books before the bell rang. He opened his locker and stepped back to pick up the house key that had been tossed into his locker. Asher glanced along the side and smiled at the photos that covered the door of his locker on the inside.
"You done yet?" Hale asked, bringing Asher out of thoughts. Asher grabbed one last book, nodded, and they walked towards homeroom which was on the other side of school.
The periods went by slowly and Asher sighed with relief, stuffing his books away quickly, as the bell for lunch rang. He got out his chair, handing some work to the teacher and almost skipped out of the class.
He hurried to his locker to exchange his books, met with Hale and led them outside. "Aren't we sitting with the others?" Hale asked him, Asher shrugged and carried on to outside.
"I want to sit outside, they'll find us anyway." Asher told Hale before sitting down and leaning against the tree. Hale did the same and smiled as Asher took out some food to share with Hale.
"You don't have to pack me lunch." Hale said, munching on the food. Asher closed his eyes.
"I know I don't, but I want to." Asher said, with his eyes still closed.
"Here they come." Hale muttered as Asher heard footsteps approach.

~Tuesay/Lunch~
The first few periods did nothing to ease the quiet tension curled up inside my stomach, neither did they worsen its condition. I was glad when the bell rang for lunch.
"Hey guys," I murmured quietly and coughed, setting my lunch down on the table. I kept my eyes tilted toward my feet as I prodded the cold ham in my sandwich.
After deciding that I had absolutely NO appetite, I leaned back and blinked slowly, my vision blurry with exhaustion and just unwillingness to do anything, I sighed,"Does anyone want my lunch? No appetite."
I looked pointedly between Hale and Asher, narrowing my eyes at their shared lunch. Hale never brought something for lunch, I had observed after watching Asher take out his lunch and split it with his close friend.

Ooc; Sorry, been out the whole day and went to bed early last night. Also, going on holiday again from Wed - Sun but shouldn't be busy as I was last time I was away so should be able to reply everyday. If not, I apologize.
-Tuesday, lunch and after-
Asher glared in Quin's direction and a slight growl left his throat which shocked himself, as well as Hale. "Take it easy." Hale hissed under his breath. Asher couldn't though, he liked Quin very much but no one looked at his best friend that might look bad, even if it wasn't intended.
"Excuse me." Asher muttered, grabbed his bag and walked off.
"Someone go after him?" Asher heard Hale asked, before Hale got up and walked the opposite direction. Asher turned around the corner and leaned against wall before he slid down it.
He sighed, breathed deeply and leaned his head against the wall before closing his eyes. He went through his bag, grabbing his earbuds and inserted them into his phone before opening his eyes to go to the music app and click play on a playlist. He put one earbud into his ear and closed his eyes again.
He heard footsteps come closer and stiffened. He wanted to talk to somewhere, but at the same time, he didn't want anyone close to him in fear of him snapping. He decided that if he spoke to someone it would be better.
