Stephanie blinked at the massive fruit basket wrapped in cellophane and tied with a large golden ribbon, how had she not seen this? Reaching up she gave the ribbons end a sharp tug and let the silk fabric slide off the plastic wrapping falling with a crinkling sounds. Lucy sat at the table chin propped in her arms. "Wow…mom sure went all out" the blond reached out with manicured nails picking up an apple and bite into it. "Not bad" the words came out muffled as Stephanie ignored her looking over the fruit.
A bright object stood out, it was white with odd little gray swirls around it and shaped like a mango though clearly didn't look like it. Stephanie took it in her hands rolling it between her slender fingers. "…what the hell is that?" Lucy leaned closer. "Steph, you aren't gonna eat that are you it looks gross?"
The red-head raised the fruit to her mouth and parted her lips, not like she hadn't eaten something weird before. She took a large bite the skin crunching; like an apples the inside soft though. She chewed for a second before making a disgusted face and swallowed sticking her tongue out. "This taste gross"
Lucy frowned, "how so?
Steph looked at her, "taste like how your gym socks smell…" the blond made a gagging noise as the red-head took another bite "DON'T KEEP EATING IT!" she shrieked making her roommate lower the fruit. "Well I'm not going to waste it" a disgusted grimace crossed Lucy's face as Stephanie took a third bite. Turning away Stephanie giggled as her friend stormed to the bathroom making a retching noise.
Stephanie giggled swallowing the last bite and sighed stretching before walking in the direction of her room.

Stephanie yawned opening her eyes and stared at the blankness of her walls before sighing and rolling over look at her alarm clock.
10:15 am
Ten fifteen oh…my performance is in an hour… she hummed closing her eyes.
"HOLY SHIT MY PERFORMANCE!" she bolted upright and shrieked falling off the edge of her bed onto the carpet, and scrambled to her feet looking around quickly. "WHERES MY BAG!" she shouted clutching the messy locks of red hair and turned running to her closet and ripped the doors open.
Articles of clothing flew through the air as she yanked items off their hangers in an insane attempt to find what she needed.

Black converse slapped against the pavement as she ducked through the throngs of people. Red hair bouncing in the air as she shoved her way past headphones in her ears and IPod clutched in her hand backpack slung over one shoulder
She jumped over a fire hydrant and looked around quickly before sprinting across the street. I can make it I know; I can- a screech of tires sounded before she felt the world vanish around her.
It was just darkness, like she was floating in the air, no wires, no trick ropes just suspended. Then gravity seemed to take over and she felt the air squeezed from her lungs as the world went from black to a blur of color and she closed her eyes the feeling enveloping her before she felt the solid earth slam into her back
