Study hall is a bore for her.
Since it was the first day, none of them had anything to do, except pretend to care what the others did over the summer. Parker's days had consisted of going around taking photos of Six and funerals for her parents while babysitting her twin brothers who drove her up the wall with stupid questions. As much as she loved her family, she had never fit in with them. ALl of them wanted her to be interested in the dead or the sciences behind decaying bodies, but she loved the simple things in life. The details of people which some found strange, while others didn't. Maverick's fingers clutched around a cigarette. Elaina's expressive eyes and hands. Stella's sway in her walk. Cassius' careful and steady hand, that she continues to catch out of the corner of her eye.
Cassius Wells is quiet, but for reasons everyone already knows. None of it was her business, but she's heard of how Cleo and Grady would treat him. Stella doesn't even look at the guy most days, but Parker's seen him more times than not. Eyes meeting silently in classes or halls, pretending like they weren't outcasts of a different class. It's the boredom of study hall that makes her turn around, arms shoved onto Cassius Well's desk with a smile on her lips. Camera left behind her, but close enough she could reach if some unfortunate soul dared bump her desk. Glancing at the ugly color of the desk and the way his hair seems to look as soft as his eyes, she wonders if there was some sort of fire beneath those irises.
"Heya, Cass."
A genuine smile pulling on her lips as she feels herself grow comfortable, ignoring the stares of other students who stopped talking to stare at them. She only glares back to shut them all up before she focuses back on the person who was going to get rid of her boredom for study hall, knowing their teacher won't give a shit since everyone else is already talking about things. Leaning onto her hand, she stares back at him for a moment, smile coming back before she continues once more.
"How are things?"
She wanted to know if Cleo was still trying to keep up the image.
"No trouble?"
