permission to say that kim left was given by kim's writer.
The room kept filling, and that filled bailey with a sense of dread and pity for her best friend Kim, who was not the biggest fan of crowds, to say the least.
And bailey felt her comment about Kim becoming reclusive replayed in her head - ....."um... cause you seem to be more reclusive, and moody when i drag you places? you're rarely as cheerful as you once were, and seem to be in.... a not so great headspace... and im just worried now that every time you see me you aren't excited, and are just resigned to the fact that im going to try and get you to do something besides mope." - and over that Kim seemed to be trying to contain his anger at her, because of that comment. Sure, she could have been nicer about it - and she had tried to take it back, but it had needed to be said. Kim seemed angry, and bailey shrank away from him - both physically, as well as withdrawing mentally.
"kim - i spend a lot of time with you. and i have spent a lot of time with you; you used to be more involved. you are stepping back, and its like you went off a cliff into a deep chasm of.... darkness. it doesn't show much, i only have realized this because i spend so much time around you - it's like your mind has been taken by the dark side." a beat passed, and she realized Kim wouldn't understand the Star Wars reference. She shook her head, sighed and then said "sorry, bad time for a muggle movie reference. but still - its like something happened and you just..... can't cope. and i cannot help if i don't know - "
another beat passed, and Kim said - in what seemed as a slightly childish move, which to be fair, they were still children - that he didn't mope. Bailey barely resisted rolling her eyes, and then she said "kim - i mean no offense. i never do - you... i ... i am just worried about you. i really really care for you, more than you will ever realize-" here her cheeks reddened, knowing how close she was to admitting that she liked - no loved him. not the time, not the time bailey she chastised herself. "i - i need you kim, and i am worrying i am loosing you. i don't want to- i can't lose you."
At this moment bailey wanted so bad to hug kim, to take him into her arms. She knew he didn't like and was not fond of physical touch, so she tried to take his hand. Kim rejected her then, drawing his hand away and walking to the table that he had left puffie at earlier.
Bailey sighed, and tried to keep from crying. She knew she had said something wrong, but at the same time knew that what she had said had needed to be said.
She sighed, and wiped her eyes before the tears could fall. She said quietly "oh kim.... why did i have to fall for you...?"
She watched as Kim slammed his milkshake down, and then after a moment Kim seemed to soften and reach out to pet puffie. She smiled sadly, knowing that Puffie was the only happiness Kim had now. She had practically killed any good standing she had with kim, or so she thought.
Bailey was distressed, upset, everything. it was almost a relief, no it WAS a relief when Kim left, and bailey waited a very short minute before leaving herself. She left in a rush, heading maybe for the lavatory... or her dorm. She had to decide where would be the best place to let out some of her emotions without making a big scene.

| ─── | Those words... I cannot help if I don't know... made him scowl.
What if he didn't want her to help him? What if he didn't want anyone to help him? Who asked for help? The words Bailey had said to him echoed inside his mind and Kim tried not to think too much about them. He'd just end up getting annoyed again by those words. Why did people want to stick their nose into the business of others? Just so they could claim they'd 'helped' someone out? For their own satisfaction? Or for their own family's honor? Well, most students at Hogwarts didn't know he was from the prestigious pureblood Sato family, unless they had paid attention during the sorting ceremony back in September 2021. Or were a prefect or staff member. He was fine. This was how it should be. Back in the past, Kim had let his guard down with the girl whose name would remain unmentionable. Cupcake. He'd call her cupcake from now on. The white haired teen didn't intend on ever letting it happen again. The worst part was he hadn't even realized he'd let his guard down until he got hurt. How could he keep it from happening again, if he didn't know it had even happened until it was too late? Kim's mood kept going up and down at any given moment, almost as if he was bipolar... But really it was just a chaotic state of mind, one where he wasn't sure how to feel at the moment. Sometimes he'd feel like his old self and other times he'd feel alien. The next minute he'd be depressed and the minute after he'd be energetic, although that energy never really reached his eyes or heart. It was more like an instinctual reaction. Or automatic. A sigh escaped his lips as he glanced around at the party going on. More people had arrived and were meandering all over the place. If it continued, the room would get too crowded. Letting his eyes flicker over Puffie, Kim nodded. He'd been there for a few hours already and all the mentioned activities had already been done. It was time for him to leave. The rest of the guests seemed as if they were just having fun talking to eachother and doing private things together. There probably wouldn't be anything gossip-worthy happening the rest of the night and so Kim returned his attention to Puffie again. "Let's go, Puffie. I feel like writing some song lyrics outside." He told his beloved pink puffball and grabbed his satchel to sling the strap over his shoulder. Returning to his dorm, he changed into more comfortable clothes and then headed out with Puffie. Time to relax outside and write down song lyrics to release his pent-up feelings. He'd done it before. |
