The next day was Saturday and they met at the school gates to go into the city and see a movie at least. The school was to be holding a wake for a student who had committed suicide earlier in the week - Eric someone - no one really knew him, and they wanted to enjoy a bit of their weekend before they had to make an appearance at the social gathering. The group has remained together for hours the day before, discussing their dreams in detail and trying in vain to remember each and every feeling and sense they had got, trying to work out more until they had filled almost 20 pages in an old work book they had found in their beloved room.

Now though, it was time for them to enjoy themselves.
"What're we going to see?" Marigold asked happily, fingers weaved with Timothy's.
"RENT!" Eleanor exclaimed, tackling Denmark from behind and being caught easily in a piggy back. They had decided firmly last night that they were going to enjoy what they could from now on and Eleanor had taken that to heart. She was no longer shy and uncertain, she was loud and smiling and nicer, and the looks she exchanged with Denmark would make even the most cynical old man smile at their love. She sure had changed, although seeing your own death could invoke some pretty powerful changes of course...
“We’ll see what’s on at the best times.” Nathan settled it for everyone. “I don’t know about anyone else, but I’m starving…”

They first set off for food, and stopped at windows for the girls to giggle over what they’d love to get next. The lingerie stop being the most interesting for everyone, especially the boys. Marigold had immediately pulled Autumn and Eleanor in with her as soon as she had seen the store, with Nathan soon following with a sly wink to the other two males, who followed apprehensively.
Nathan was quick to buy anything that Autumn even considered, making her snicker and steal away his credit card before they were teased anymore by the others.
“Hey, Denny,” Eleanor called softly. “How about this?” she held up a small set, black in lace with ribbons falling in just the right places, and he promptly turned bright red as she struggled to remain straight faced.
"You're such a tease." He finally commented, taking her hand firmly and leading her out of the store, leaving their wares and the others behind.
"She has you strung up like a puppet." Nathan snickered as they rejoined them, Timothy agreeing solemnly. “Denmark, you are officially whipped.”
“Literally.” Timothy made a little action with his hand along with the sound effects. “There’s some good leather ones back there, Elle, if you want…”

The group spent the rest of the afternoon laughing and getting along better and better as they grew even closer. The future could bring what it liked, together, they’d handle it all.
