I smiled as I saw her wearing tight black jeans and a leather halter neck top that looked familiar… I was seriously going to have place a spell on my wardrobe. But her dress sense wasn't the biggest change I had to get used to. In 2 girly pigtails was an assortment of Electric Blue hair. It suited her though, I had to admit, but it was different. Mary K was definitely no longer a choirgirl. Catching her and Tyler in the cupboard at revenge last week definitely put at end to that notion.
I myself chose a simple silk corset, dyed blood red, and black leather pants and slipped on the compulsory 4-inch red stilettos. I checked my appearance and smiled. My black and red hair was poker straight falling down my back. Perfect. My lip-gloss was perfectly applied to cherry perfection.
"You nervous?"
"No" I said simply "I don't feel much about it to be honest".
Mary K looked at me a moment as if trying a gauge my reaction and I smiled softly at her. "Hey its all good. Unless you're nervous. Its like, what, 6 in the morning? and you woke me up remember?" I teased.
I pulled up to Widowsvale in my beloved Spider and although I would never admit it I was hit by a sense of fear at being here again. Everyone lived here. My Parents, My friends. Robbie, Bree. Raven, Sky… And Hunter. I took a deep breath and pulled up beside a grassy verge, looking at Mary K, noticing it was coming up noon. It didn't take long to get here, but before we left I suddenly managed to find a lot of urgent matters to attend to first. They were urgent..ish. She herself looked nervous as hell, but at least with me you couldn't tell. I frowned at myself, I was her big sister and I needed to be okay for her. I gave myself an inner pep talk, willing Morgan the badass to get her ass into gear and make an appearance.
"Widowsvale was always too bloody bright" I mumbled placing my shades on and, opening the door, got out and sat on the bonnet and leant against the windshield. "Cigarette?" I asked sparking up and she stood in front of me, and a few puffs later it flared to life.
"Cant beat a cigarette" I muttered "But if I tan in this weather I am not gonna be happy"
This caused Mk to smile.
"And your hair looks bloody atomic in the sun" I grinned laughing and hopped down locking the car.
"Now what" she asked quietly. We hadn't exactly made a plan of action.
"You finish your smoke" I said and paused a moment. "Widowsvale is just another town now MK"
"Yeah" she said and I suddenly peaked up.
"Widowsvale is just another town" I repeated smiling to her "and what do the McEwan girls do in any new town… We go the Mall and blow all daddies money" I paused again and frowned "but being Widowsvale there are no Malls. Hmmm. Okay – lets find a quiet bar and actually think shit through"
"okay. NYC is home now, this is just another place"
"I'm so proud of you Mary K, you know that right?"
"And I owe you, despite what you say I know it took a lot for you to come back here after what they did and said"
"Yeah" I smiled "But from now on, you and me all the way. Together forever and all that fucking sentimental crap"
"All the way." She beamed
" so we're gonna start off with a bar, prep our.. uh I mean your, nerves, and set up operation infiltrate the Rowland's"
"You watch way to much Alias" she smiled, neither of us noticing the figure leant against a tree over the road, or that it followed us into the Bar.
