Awkward is Infectious

Sep 07, 2009 19:38

Who: Kallen, C.C. and Lelouch
Where: Espoir, in the basement of Lelouch's mansion
When: Backdated to while the storm is still raging
Style: Starts in first
Status: Closed

[It's only now that Kallen has begun considering that, hey, maybe this hadn't been the best idea in the world. She would be willing to admit that being trapped in the closet bothered her more than it should have, and she had been ever eager to leave her house behind and go join Lelouch in his basement. Good on all accounts.

Except on account of awkwardness. Yeah, Lelouch had mentioned that C.C. would be there, but what was that compared to suffocating alone in a closet? Now, though, without the threat of eminent death and whatever sparse conversation from earlier exhausted, the awkward silence had crept in and held the room. It had been a long time since the three of them had been together like this, and a great many things had happened since then.

So. Kallen sits alone and she stares across the room at Lelouch and C.C, who sit beside each other. It annoys Kallen more than she'd ever admit that C.C. is at his side. It was the same thing before his death. C.C. had been with him to the end. Kallen had not.

And she stares, thinking of nothing to say.]
