Tessa tightened her grip on Nic's hand, trying to avoid looking at any of them. If they knew what she did, perhaps they wouldn't be so forgiving. You want this, Elizabeth's words rang in her head and she felt a wave of nausea come over her. Of course she wanted it. Just... Not like this. Never like this.

Nicolas looked up. "Jane? Is that you?"

"Yes... It's me. Are you okay?" she asked, making her way over to him.

"We should get back to the common room," Tessa said hoarsely, using the back of her hand to wipe below her eye. "This... This isn't right."

"Not really," he whispered. "But we have to go. We all need to go. Anywhere else."
Ricardo angrily wiped at his eyes with his sleeve, standing. "The Room of Requirment. I don't think that a lot of us can deal with having to go back and explaining all of this."

She nodded, unsteadily going to help Nic to his feet. The whole thing felt surreal.

Cora stood, her head aching. It was hard to believe that not too long ago, they were all blissfully ignorant... and now, not so much.

"The Room of Requirement sounds good," Jane murmured. "I don't exactly want to go back to the common room..."

Two grim-faced men had already arrived to take the bodies away. Ricardo tore his eyes away from Bianca's corpse, tears brimming in his eyes. "...Let's go."

She nodded numbly, dropping Nic's hand with a quick exhale of breath and covering her mouth, head bowed as she followed Ricardo out.

Carefully, Giovanni helped Nicolas to a stand, glancing over at the splinters of cane and shattered shades that lay nearby. Most of the blood that had fallen on him had mysteriously disappeared, but some still stained his hair and skin scarlet.

Jane hung back with Giovanni and Nic, her head bowed and her arms wrapped around herself.
Vincent had been watching the whole ordeal from the doorway. When he saw Ricardo walking out, he fell in beside him. Vincent swallowed hard, still in shock. He hadn't known Bianca very well, but...

Tessa pushed open the door, the memory of that day ever fresh in her mind. She searched the rows of beds for Bianca's, heart beating fast in her chest.

Bianca was leaning back in her pillows, sorting quickly through her makeup kit. She looked rather bored as she held up two tubes of mascara to the light, comparing the labels.

She blinked a few times before making her way over to the bed, waves of emotion passing through her. "Hey, Bianca," she said with a smile, painfully aware of the fact that her face was probably still blotchy. Perhaps it would have been better to wait before seeing her.

"Tessa!" she looked up, eyebrows raising as she searched her best friend's face. "Have... have you been crying?"

"Um, yeah," she said quietly, sitting in her usual place at the end of her friend's bed. "Lizzie... She's dead."

"She-" the Ravenclaw cleared her throat, feeling the tears building up again. "She jumped from one of the windows."

"Suicide?" Bianca whispered, throwing her arms around Tessa. "I'm so sorry."
