PARTIES HAD NEVER BEEN HER THING yet she still found herself at one if for no other reason then to make sure her siblings didn't do anything stupid . the same drink she'd had since she'd gotten there clasped in her hands , she felt so out of place and it showed in the most painfully obvious of ways . it was easy to spot one of her siblings and almost just as easy to squeeze her way through people to them , " i'm going to try not to be an annoying older sister or a hypocrite . " it's exactly what an annoying older sister AND hypocrite would say , " but please don't drink that much and do anything stupid . need you promise me that bambs . " she said holding out her pinky finger for the other to take . on the pole of people she had to worry about bambi was the furthest from the top , connor in fact seemed to hold that place permanently and rather firmly WITH both hands , but it didn't mean she still didn't worry .

" LIKE HELL YOU ARE . i'm not going to let you get anywhere close to them as long as i can help it . " her face contorting into a scowl . the lancasters only fault ( to her knowledge ) was having a party in rosewick and her siblings were HER SIBLINGS . thoughts of going back inside were all but forgotten as she tried to pull her brother from whatever abyss he'd been plunged into by that creature behind the screen , " connor . i understand this isn't you right now , but if you hurt them i don't know if i'll ever be able to forgive you . " she all but spat at him , " so please . fight whatever's happening to you . " she plead hurt clearly written across her face . " and you'd have to be absolutely fucked in the head if you think i'm willingly going ANYWHERE with you . " there it was another flare of her temper , " you're going to have to shoot me to get your way . because i will make going down hell otherwise . "

SABRINA WAS GOING TO BE THE DIFFICULT ONE AMONGST the bunch he knew that, but he didn't think how difficult she would really be. connor's blank expression settles onto hers once seeing the waving hands and he gives a slight quirk of his lips, before moving his shoulders into a shrug. ''i'm not thinking of doing anything.. well, anything just yet. but at some point, you know i am going to work my way in there. just pop in and say hi to the little ol' lancasters and maybe everyone else that's in there? like.. bambi? sammy boy?'' the chuckle leaving him as he looks at the weapon in hand and at the question, he almost wants to unravel there. it had been burned into his mind, practically whipped into him to hate & eliminate anything in path and one look at his sister has him wanting to throw that all out the window. taking a deep breath, he looks between the weapon in hand and sabrina before finally motioning with his head back towards the woods and pointing the gun towards her. ''you don't want to know. but i think its time we go for a little walk, don't you think?''

SABRINA WAS HAPPY TO JUST SORT OF BLEND IN as her sister seemed to be stopped by every other person , a smile played on her face . a she heard that familiar little chime of her phone and was already constructing a text in her head on how she was going to respond already . looking over the text her heart sank into her stomach , her eyes darting up towards bambi before going back to the screen . when her sister started walking again she followed suit turning the screen off , trying to keep some sort of check in what exactlt her face might give away . " holy shit . " was all that managed to leave her lips as she took her own look around the space , a laugh leaving her lips as bambi declared how she would have to break the news to their parents how she was moving out . " maybe you can find one of the lancaster's and ask about a rental agreement or something . " she took another sip of her drink but it seemed to just work into souring her stomach , " can i move with you ? " she opted to place the cup down and shove her hands into her pockets , a ghost of a smile still lingering on her lips as the words of the text bounced in her head .

𝖺𝗌 𝗍𝗁𝖾𝗒 𝗐𝖺𝗅𝗄𝖾𝖽 𝗍𝗁𝗋𝗈𝗎𝗀𝗁 𝗍𝗁𝖾 𝖼𝗋𝗈𝗐𝖽 , bambi was stopped by more people than she could count on both hands . her reputation as rosewick's social butterfly certainly lived up to its name , but she was disinterested in any of that tonight , instead she wanted to spend time with her sister , who so very clearly needed a distraction . ❛ i think it's just through this door ... ❜ and as they walked through , bambi's words sprung to life , green eyes wide as she took in the scene before them . as a lover of the arts , it was hard for her to not feel a rare sort of envy as she admired how well the space had been purpose built . ❛ i'm moving in . you can break the news to mama and mom . ❜

THERE WAS MOMENTARY CONCERN WRITTEN ON HER FACE as her sister grabbed her arm only to be replaced by a smile . " good ! hopefully never . no i haven't , i've spent most of my time looking for one of you guys . it certainly would , they already opened up the rest of the house to everyone . " cup still held firmly in one hand there wasn't a second thought in her head as sabrina took bambi's hand with her free one , she knew full well what the other was doing and she was never going to be able to put into words just how thankfully she was for it . she could just not think for a moment , she needed to just not think for a moment . she only hoped sammy and connor really could keep themselves out of trouble .

❛ 𝖼𝖺𝗋𝗋𝗂𝖾𝗋 𝗉𝗂𝗀𝖾𝗈𝗇 𝗐𝖺𝗌 𝗆𝗒 𝗇𝖾𝗑𝗍 𝗀𝗎𝖾𝗌𝗌 ! ❜ all of a sudden , bambi's hand flew out to grab sabrina's arm , a playful but shocked look on her face . ❛ firstly , yes , of course ! when would i ever say no to movie night ? secondly ... have you seen the projector room they have here ? i've heard it has its own popcorn machine ... i feel like it'd be rude not to check it out , right ? ❜ she holds out her free hand and gleefully wiggles her fingers , ready to drag sabrina far away from the worries occupying her mind and the serious conversations bambi didn't want to have . there were things going on with all of the siblings at the moment , until anything escalated , maybe they could just enjoy some ignorant bliss .

[asteroidxblves]

THAT WAS CONCERNING . pursing her lips she straightened up a little and smoothing down her hair , it was the little things that gave her away . connor and sammy were okay , just because they couldn't see them didn't mean anything , bambi was right bambi had to be right . " yeah . they're both grown adults and more than capable of taking care of themselves . " sabrina finally said a smile on her face but it wasn't one that quite reached her eyes , she was so full of shit . looking around as her sister did she couldn't help but laugh . " no kidding . probably . either that or carrier pigeon . " now there was something a little more genuine on her face , " SPEAKING OF MOVIE NIGHT , how about next friday we take over the living room ? " she asked bumping her sisters shoulder with her own .

❛ 𝗇𝗈𝗍 𝗌𝖾𝖾𝗇 𝗁𝗂𝗆 𝖾𝗂𝗍𝗁𝖾𝗋 . guess that's not a terrible thing though , right ? better to not see them at all than , you know ... ❜ she stops , expectant look on her face indicating that she expected her sister to fill in the blanks . she takes a good look around , not keen to push sabrina any closer to the edge , before finding a subject matter to settle on that was significantly more comfortable . if she let on how worried she was about connor , things would go south fast . ❛ i don't think i could ever live in a house like this , i'd have to get a bus to make it to movie night on time . do you think dove and daisy communicate via smoke signal ? ❜

SHE STUDIED EVERY LITTLE MOVEMENT OF HER BROTHER she'd grown up with , every little tick and quirk she had down to a t . she could even tell when he was lying , he wasn't the best ( or worst ) at it . there was something unspeakably wrong with him . her lips pull into a tight line when he mentions he'd lost his phone , it was such a connor thing to do , but her eyes widened and their was something resembling pain writing itself across her face at the mention of captivity . squealing too much . it was her self titled job to protect her siblings and in a way she could see she'd fail at least this once , he began reaching behind him and sabrina lifted her hands trying to get his attention , " i don't know what you're thinking of doing , but don’t do anything you'll regret con . " she takes a shuffled step back trying to put distance between him and her . how far would she have to run to get back into the house ? could she even put words together to offer an explanation that her brother wasn't right ? she should've stayed inside with bambi . " what did he do to you ? " if she kept attacking him with questions maybe just maybe it would offer enough of a distraction to RUN .

some part of him wants to laugh, has the urge to roll at the reaction but his facial expression slightly concerned to try and keep his cover. ah, now that seemed to throw a bump in the road and he was going to have to think quick with his responses. hand rubbing the back of his head, looking back to where he'd just come out of. ''i lost my phone if you'd believe it. a luxury you can't really have in captivity.'' lowering the hand from the back of his head and giving a simple shrug of his shoulders, connor reaches behind him for the weapon he'd holstered in his encounter with yeona, keeping it at his side as he doesn't bother to move just yet. ''i'd feel a lot better if you didn't ask as many questions though.''

SHE EYED HER SIBLING something was different , she just couldn't put her finger on it . but she relaxed as bambi's pinky finger wrapped around hers , a smile spreading across her face . " good . thank you bambs . " she couldn't help but laugh and let go of her siblings pinky , " if you can wait until i finish my drink i might just join you in doing that . " sabrina bumped her shoulder into her siblings . she needed to laugh and smile and not think that much , but that just wasn't their reality . taking a small sip from her drink she looked around the party as bambi asked if she'd seen connor . she shook her head , " no . " it was such a simple little word , there was no way it could expose just how worried for their rather wayward brother . " you ? what about sam .. ? "

𝖻𝖺𝗆𝖻𝗂 𝗁𝖺𝖽𝗇'𝗍 𝗆𝖾𝗍 𝖺 𝗉𝖺𝗋𝗍𝗒 𝗍𝗁𝖺𝗍 𝗌𝗁𝖾 𝖽𝗂𝖽𝗇'𝗍 𝗅𝗂𝗄𝖾 . most people would tell you that that was a problem , that no sane , well - adjusted person could possibly enjoy every social event they've ever been to , but before the events of the last few years she would've laughed in your face . now , she stared at the distinctly non - alcoholic drink in the cup , her cheeks aching from her having pinched them in the bathroom minutes prior to give herself a good flush . she would probably drink at some point , but right now the thought turned her stomach ( not that anyone else needed to know that ) . sabrina's face , then , lit up bambi's in return , her tones of worry and big sisterly concern being something of a comfort . she links their pinky fingers together to seal the promise , ❛ scout's honour , bri . just for you i'll be on my best behaviour ... do i have time for a couple balcony back flips into the pool before this deal locks in ? ❜ her wry smile indicates she's messing around with sabrina , though it falters slightly as she lets their fingers drop away from each other . ❛ you seen connor ? ❜

[asteroidxblves]

THE TEXT WEIGHED HEAVY ON HER MIND excusing herself to get away from bambi she pushed her way outside and down on to the lawn . her solo cup in one hand and her hand in the other the screen lit up as she reread it for the umpteenth time . sabrina nearly jumps out of her skin when she hears him , " holy shi -- connor ! " there was almost a disregard for what he'd said , " i've been worried about you and sammy , both of you need to learn how to answer your phone . y -- yeah something like that . " DIMWIT BROTHER . " you feeling alright con .. ? " SQUEALING TOO MUCH .

@asteroidxblves

at least in connor's mind the plan had been working to perfection, no one had come looking for yeona just yet ( that or he didn't bother to concern himself with her anymore) & he'd been looking for anyone that would give him away. arms fold over his chest as he attempts to make himself seem casual, walking out from the woods like he'd relieved himself out there when he catches the sight of her-- his brows knitting together. ''you love a good party, what are you doing out here?'' a pause, looking back towards the back door of the house. ''--needed to hear yourself think properly?''
