Cigarette flicked off to the side from her lingering position at that bus stop bench. The dyed-redhead wasn't waiting for the bus, but the spot was well lit enough for her to feel somewhat safe within the night. Cellphone in hand and flipped open. Soft chimes of Beeps echoing out with each thumb press to the down arrow.
Texts from her roommates.
A few from friends back in Emerald Bay.
and the past conversations she held with Rayvinn that she hadn't quite gotten around to deleting yet.
A conversation that had come to a sudden halt a good month or so back.
It was a bit worrisome. The woman had stopped coming around the dueling venues as well - and that gave Apple more reason to worry. Not only that, but the conversations they had before. Looking back on it now - could Rayvinn be in danger? .. Or worse? The thoughts alone had her pulling free another cigarette, but she stopped herself short of lighting it. Looking to the stick held between her index and thumb. Wiggling it about a few times before tossing it away all together. The same would be done to the pack.
"I'll just write her.." She said softly to herself. Her body hunching over and the phone brought closer to her face. Her posture was terrible, that's what anyone would probably think if they saw her right now. Still, the only thing on Apples mind was the message that she was now thumbing onto her screen.
Hey. You there?
Short and simple. Send. Wait -- she wouldn't. Her finger hovered over the button, and instead of hitting that - she'd erase it. The phone was slid closed and she looked out into the slightly lit street. A shake of her head followed, and the phone was opened once more.
Yo! Raye!
The next idea.. and the next to be wiped from her screen with a few taps to that back button.
Why was this so hard? She didn't even know the woman all that well. The only thing that she did know, was that she enjoyed her company.
I miss you.
Smack. Her hand found her forehead when she looked over what she just wrote. Said hand slowly began to slide down her face and finally drop into her lap. "No way.. that'll just sound wrong." But it's really how she felt. She did miss her. Thumb moved to that button to erase, but something soon startled her. Body jolting up and head looked to the source of that loud honk. ".. Took you long enough!" She yelled out. Then looking to her phone and the vision of a flying letter on her screen.

".. O.. Oh..! Sh*t..!"
"What's your problem?" The voice of her roommate met her ear. She shot him a look from the bench and quickly jumped up. "I hate you so much right now..!" Apple replied while dashing over to the car.
