It was rare for a Potter to be seen without at least another of their clan. At least for the younger Potters, it was a rarity, but Reagan Potter didn't particularly care. She was either with her sisters or her boyfriend on the regular, but she did make an exception. Whether she realized it or not, Eleni Brennan was lucky. For one, Reagan actually liked her, and willingly spoke to her outside of the clique Reagan's fellow Vixens had created. Reagan couldn't explain it herself, but there was something calming about the brunette. Something that made her feel like she didn't have to pretend to be dumb and let her guard down. She'd quickly become a friend in Reagan's eyes, and when she heard that Eleni was back from whatever trip her dad had taken her on, she'd allowed her a few days to get over the jet lag before she pulled the Vixen's red Mercedes convertible up to the curb. Reagan adjusted her sunglasses, before pulling out her pink lipstick tube and applying another coat onto her lips before she rubbed them together and tucked it back into her side purse. She then reached over for the Macy's Bags that sat in the passenger seat and pulled them along with her as she got out of the car. Her auburn hair was up out of her face, her bangs framing it as it was in a braided updo that made it look like she had a braided crown, while several lose strands fell out of it. It was a slightly "messy" yet still classy way she liked to wear her hair. Her sandaled pumps clicked across the pavement as she adjusted the black sundress with pink and purple flowers she wore, and then proceeded up the driveway. Passing the Brennan's black suburban, she had the shopping bags tucked into the crook of her arm. She stepped up onto the porch and then used the iron knocker. Letting hazel eyes flicker up to the ceiling of the covered porch while she tapped a foot impatiently. The persistent tapping of it filling the air while she checked out her cuticles. |

Tired eyes peered through the glasses that were slowly slipping down his nose at the laptop screen; his hand splayed across the pages of an open book, an old one by the looks of it. His lips were moving, mouth words to himself as he read the digital text before the knock at the door immediately broke his concentration.
Maddox waited a moment to see if anyone else would get it, but a few more seconds and he was pulling the glasses off his face and pinching the bride of his nose. He heaved a sigh as he stood up to see who was at the door, only mildly surprised to see the red head.
"Reagan-" he recalled his daughter's friend's name. The Potter was nice enough and seemed respectful, but there was still that...expensive air about her. Dark eyes flickered to her car for a moment, and it explained a lot.
"Uh, come in. Come in," he finally said, stepping aside to allow her entry. "Leni's in her room, I think." He didn't think she was still sleeping at this point.
After shutting the door, he quickly made his way down the hall to knock on his daughter's door. "Sweetheart? Reagan's here." |

She was kind of startled by the knock at her door. No, she hadn't been sleeping, but she was still in a t-shirt and sweatpants, curled up on her bed staring into space. For a moment, she was about to panic because she really didn't want her father to see her like this, but she definitely panicked to hear that Reagan was there. And Eleni didn't want her, Ms. Flawless Potter, to see her like such a mess.
Truthfully, she didn't know why Reagan chose to be friends with. Of course, El was glad for it, but that didn't mean she wasn't confused by it all the same.
Sitting up quickly, she caught sight of herself in her vanity mirror. Unlike the redhead's "messy" updo, Eleni's hair was certainly a horribly messy bun, and she groaned at herself. There was no time to try and pretty that reflection up, so she just sighed and swung her feet over the edge of her bed.
"I'm awake! She can come in." |

Seriously? How long did they expect to keep her waiting? She had important business to attend too! Not a precious moment could be wasted! While she waited she quickly pulled her phone out of her purse and her thumbs flew across the keyboard. Texting Jalen:
Hey babe, any problems with the drinks? (Smooching heart emoji)
She clicked send the moment the door opened, and she looked up, placing that “Reagan smile” With the signature slight head tilt as she smiled up at Eleni’s dad. She wiggled her fingers in hello, quickly letting those hazel eyes do a once-over of Mr. Brennan. Did he even sleep after getting off the plane? She thought. She could certainly tell he hadn’t showered, but she wasn’t going to tell him that. “Hi Mr. Brennan,” She said casually, stepping into the humble abode once he stepped aside for her. She knew automatically where to head to Leni’s room, but let him do his father duty’s in announcing her presence. Not that she needed to be announced.
She was practically on Mr. Brennan’s heels as he walked down the hallway. Her heels were muffled by the carpet. She halted at the door, waiting expectantly. She could hear Eleni running around inside, and refrained from rolling her eyes. Not caring at all what the girl looked like as she was going to work some magic on her to really bring out those killer looks Eleni Brennan had. She had to keep herself from reaching for the door and just inviting herself in. Knowing it was something Riss might do, but Reagan did have some manners.
When she heard the okay. She only widened her smile a fraction and then did invite herself in. She reached for the door, swishing past Mr. Brennan before twirling around in the doorway, “Thanks Mr. Brennan,” She reached forward, patting his chest before she abruptly closed the door and then turned around, her eyebrows arching and her eyes going wide as she set her sights on Eleni. Looking her up from head to toe. “Okay, not too terrible, I can work with this,” She spoke mostly to herself before she strutted forward and dumped the bags unceremoniously onto the bed, before turning to Eleni again.
Reagan’s demeanor changed then, as her face softened, and a look that only a person who actually missed someone else could produce, appeared on her face. “I’m so glad your back!” She cried, walking forward to take Eleni into a massive hug. She hugged her tightly, and then put her hands on her shoulders before she leaned back. “I see we’re still recovering from jetlag, but never fear! I can cover that right up, and no one will know.” She grinned, giving her a wink, and then tapped Eleni’s nose before she whirled around and then went to the bags, beginning to take out their contents.

Eleni was drawing herself up to her feet as her bedroom swung open and she smiled warmly at Reagan, until the redhead spoke and her smile faltered a little bit. She glanced down at herself, smoothing out the front of her t-shirt as if that would honestly help the state she was in.
"Oh...that bad, huh?" she more like murmured to herself, suddenly very embarrassed and appearing sheepish. Leni was about ready to climb back under the covers, but the dumped bags stopped her; immediately putting a question on her face.
Before she could question anything, Reagan was drawing her into a hug, one that she graciously returned with a more sincere smile. "It's good to be back, honestly." She used to like traveling, but this last time had been different. Everything seemed different all of a sudden, and it wasn't exactly something she could speak to Rea about, she realized. That hurt more than she expected.
When her friend drew back, Eleni appeared perplexed. "No one will know?" she echoed in confusion. "Did we have plans that I forgot about...?" Her words trailed off. In all honestly, she wasn't sure she was ready to deal with other people right now, unsure of when she was actually going to die and all. That put a damper on a young girl's social life, you know. |

Reagan had bargain shopped. Even if she was perfectly capable of paying full price, she had college to think about, and saving even a penny was something she was going to do. The selections she'd ended up with were still cute if you asked her, and she had no doubt Eleni would look radiant as ever once she was done with her. She pulled out a few dresses and dumped the back that had all the accessories in it out on the bed. At Eleni's question, she picked up a soft baby blue sleeveless dress that was a button-up but gathered at the waist. A cute belt and the outfit would probably be complete and then accessorizing in gold. She turned and held it up against Eleni, tilting her head in thought as she considered it. "Mmmm no," She answered her. "These are new plans and a bit of a surprise, but I hate surprises so;" She sighed, but then grinned up at her. "We have a party to go to. A small gathering so to speak with friends." Reagan informed her. She turned away and picked up another dress, this one was a simple black dress with spaghetti straps that flared at the waist. There was always something endearing and magically about a simple black dress, no matter the simplicity it always made everyone look good. The other dress Reagan had brought for Eleni was a navy colored dress with a floral print with a similar cut to the black one, while Reagans dress was a s oft pink wrap dress and thin straps. "We have to get ready," She told her. Holding the black one up to see how it would look on Eleni or if it would make her look paler then she looked right now. |
