"Hurry up Lizzy!!!!!", screeched Lydia. "I have to get ready for my date!!!!!"
Elizabeth Bennet muttered under her breath, "A MOVIE date. Does she really need fucking 4 hours to get ready?"
"Let me shower in peace for once!"
"NOOOOOO!!!!!!! I have to get READY!!!!!"
"Fine!" with that, Elizabeth wrapped a towel around herself and stormed out. Jane was sitting on the couch observing it all. "Makes you want to go back to college, eh?"
"Shut up", Elizabeth retorted darkly. Jane just smiled and returned her attention to her book.
Elizabeth hated going home on vacations. ESPECIALLY on vacations for Lydia and Kitty had countless dates to go on and that fact made them irritable at home and caused so many arguments.
"KITTY!!! YOU STOLE MY PURSE!!!!! I WAS GOING TO TAKE THAT TO MY DATE!!!!"
"WELL, YOU STOLE MY HAT!!!!!!"
Elizabeth just simply sighed and went to her room rolling her eyes and the stupidity of the two sisters. As she made the trek towards her room, she suddenly bumped into something.
Actually, it was more of someone.
"AHHHHHH!!!!!!!!", Elizabeth shrieked…and realized it was her sister Mary. "Sorry Mary, didn't, uh, realize it, uh was you"
Mary was wrapped in a black cloak that seemed to envelope her. You could only see her eyes and they were staring at Elizabeth intently, making Elizabeth reeeaaallly uncomfortable. The only response she got out of Mary was a nod.
The rest of Elizabeth's walk to her room was uneventful and she sighed, finally in her sanctuary, away from all of that chaos. She wrapped her dripping hair into a towel and proceeded to pull on a tank top and sport shorts. She looked at the clock. 8:12 a.m. "Shit! I'm late, I'm late, I'm late, I'm late!!!!!" She quickly burst out of her room, grabbing a hair tie and tying her still damp hair up in a messy bun as she ran down the stairs. She grabbed a toast and stuffed it into her mouth while putting her shoes on. All the while, Jane chuckled from behind the pages of her book. "Late for class again?", she inquired, chuckling. "Mmyrf", was all she got and she took it as a yes.
Elizabeth tore out of her house and jumped into her car, starting her engine and sped all the way to the dance studio
