Sunnydale
God, I haven't been able to sleep in days. I - I can't believe that Josh would have done that to me. When I got home Friday night - I got a lift from some guy - Marvin, Mark, Matt - something like that - and he didn't say much on the way home. Which was way cool of him because, well, I just didn't feel much like talking. Whatever the guy's name

Ok, I'm pretty sure this was the house, and that I haven't actually visited yet, I just thought about it...I think.

*yells out* JAKE! Get the DOor!
*waits a second, not hearing a response*
*grumbles*
GOd, I have to do everything...

Um, Max?

Hey, just came by to check how you were doing. You were pretty upset on Friday and I figured with the weird nobody in town sleeping thing you might be needing a nuetral person to yell at about life.
Um, unless you're having some weird crisis like Nick and are planning on staking vampires, then I don't want to go.

*blinks in confusion as the rest of his words dawn*
Um. I have no clue what you're talking about.
*pauses, biting her lip*
Do you want to come in?

Didn't you know? Nobody in Sunnydale can sleep. Must be like our strange laryngitis outbreak a few years ago. No one's slept since sometime thursday afternoon and the whole town's kind of snapping.
I even saw a guy running around in a halloween costume and a cape yelling about kissing girls.
Tres weird.

*wrinkles her nose*
Eww, a caped guy kissing girls? What, does he thinks he's Superman or something.
*stops a second*
Wait, Superman's not, like, real, is he?

Well not that I've ever heard, but I saw a demon and a vampire the other night so I guess anythings possible.

This town is the weirdest place. Vampires and these weird creatures called pixies and magic and...
*shakes her head*
I totally don't get it. And the whole town lost it's voice? Seriously? That would bite.
*looks at Marcus*
Do you want a soda or some juice or something?

Yeah the entire town couldn't make a sound. Outsiders called it laryngitis, but we all kind of figured it was one of those Sunnydale things. Like the vampires and stuff that everyone knows are here but they don't talk about.
You guys moved here not long ago right?

*gestures Marcus to follow her into the kitchen*
Yeah, we've lived here for a bit less than a year. When our parents got divorced.
*shrugs, opening the fridge and peering in*
Kinda figured that things were a little funky here but didn't think it was, you know, THIS.
Apple or orange?

*takes the bottle she hands him*
Yeah it takes a little getting used to.
*shrugs*
Then if you grow up here you just kind of realize some of your friends aren't going to make it out of high school.
Your mom know? Or just you and um, *thinks for a second* Jake?
Reply
*nods her head*
Jake.
*shrugs*
I don't think mom knows. I mean, when Jake was all wolfy and stuff and I was like, a fairy or something - we did a good job of hiding it. Plus, you know, the whole Dad alibi works a lot. We tried to bring it up once but, um, mom's a therapist and it just got, like, really bad fast so we sorta shifted gears.
What about your parents?

Mona and Larry have their heads in so many mind altering substances I'm sure it all looks normal to them. As long as I play good son and not cause problems they notice nothing.

*eyes widen slightly before she controls her expressions*
*voice soft*
Oh. That sounds kinda unfun.
*smiles at him shyly*
Hey, did you want to sit down? You look tired.
*gestures towards the living room*
*blushes*
Guess you probably are tired, if nobody's been sleeping.
