Very Early Monday Morning -- South Attic

[sensethevisions]

Phoebe sat in the bed, under the blankets, with her knees pulled up to her chin. There were shadows creeping across the floor as the sun started to rise, but she barely noticed them.

Phoebe sighed and bit her lip.

They had wrongfully arrested Cole on Thursday... and it was now Monday morning. They still hadn't copped to their mistake and released him. She didn't know how much more of this caged heat bullshit he could take --- and she was failing him because she had yet to find anything to help him out of this mess.

At least she and Piper had made up and they were working together on this. She never felt right when she and Piper weren't speaking to each other or mad. It hurt way too much to be measured and it always left her feeling sick inside. Thankfully, it hadn't lasted very long this time. She didn't know what she was going to do next year when Piper was at college back in California.

She sighed again. Weekend roundup?

Love of her life got arrested for a crime he didn't commit. Sister cast a spell to keep him there. Someone she had come to believe was like the fifth Halliwell sister had turned on her because she wouldn't help prove that Cole was innocent of the charges. That still cut deep and made her so angry. Was offered Camulus' apartment to hide out in if she needed it. Spent as much time as she had been able to down at the station with Cole. Had a castle built for her by a horde of wee tiny hugging bunnies. She and sister made up and started doing research. Piper was staying with her in the South Attic so that she wasn't alone right now.

The weekend had been hell, and now it was Monday. She wasn't sleeping, and was sometimes remembering to eat. She really didn't want to go to classes today. She was glad that Piper was sleeping in the next room, though. She realy hated spending nights alone. She had gotten so used to Cole sharing the Attic with her that it felt so cold and empty right now... and it scared her to feel so alone.

When she found out who was responsible for all of this, she was going to kill them herself.

Lana knocked on her door. "Phoebe? It's Lana. Bel wanted me to check on you - like I wouldn't have anyway. I wnted to come see you before I went off to work, make sure you grab something to eat and go to your classes."

She hesitated. "You're welcome to come hang out at work with me."

[sensethevisions]

Phoebe got out of bed and went into the outer room to open the door and let Lana in.

"Hey, Lana," she said sadly. "I'm going to attempt to go to classes." She tilted her head. "What time do you work?"

"10:30 to 12:30. You don't have to stay the whole time - just thought it might be a change and we could hang out. The store's usually pretty quiet, especially on a Monday."

Phoebe smiled. "I think I'll come down after Sociology? That class ends at 9:50 and then I don't have another class until 2."

"Why don't I come pick you up after your class and we'll grab something from JGOB and then you can come hang out with me."

[OOC: I'll redo my Aereo post saying you came in with me, okay?]

[sensethevisions]

Phoebe nodded. "Okay, I can do that. Thanks, Lana."


[[OOC: Works for me. :) ]]

"Great. I'll come grab you after class and we'll get a bite to eat."

It would be good for both of them, she figured. She'd be keeping her promise to Bel and it's not like she was managing to eat much herself.

The phone rang. "Hey Phoebe, this is Kiki. I just wanted to find out how you were holding up. I've spent most of the weekend handwavily holed up in the library trying to find anything that will help...but I didn't have much luck.

Love you, hon, bye..."
