Dec. 13th, 2020 05:12 pmMaeve is pretty sure most people would know she was full of shit if she said she didn't like being in Darrow.
Moordale was fine, but it was Moordale. She had wanted to get out of there for as long as she could remember and having people like Aimee and Otis there for her didn't change that. It was too small and because of that, the minds of most people who lived there were small, too. She didn't think she was better than them -- well, not all of them -- but she knew she was different.
It would have been London eventually, she knows. But instead it's Darrow. And that works, too.
She's going to be starting classes at Barton soon, but for now she's actually loving just hanging out. She may still not know what she's doing with Steve and thinks she might have to actually address that sooner or later, but she likes being with him and she likes living with Rue, she likes the friends she's made.
Normally she's not much of one for going out, but tonight she's convinced Dani they need to. Even if it's just for some drinks and food, she's restless, needing to get out of the house, and she shifts from one foot to the other as she waits on the street outside of Dani's flat for her to come down. She's smoking, which she hasn't done as much of since getting here, but tonight it had felt right.
Things are, Maeve realizes, actually pretty okay.
