!FILLER! - VISITS 1

WARNING: ANGST....?

ALLISON
"is it just me, or is hermione punching draco in the face equal to my one true ship in this book?" lilith asks herself, sitting not so elegantly on her chair, her pink heels resting on top of her desk "i'd kill to see them get together, but murder is apparently frowned upon most days"

well, you'll never know if you don't try

lilith fake laughs and tucks a strand of her blonde hair behind her ear "don't tempt me, devil" she says, placing a book mark on the page she was in to save it for future readings

hmm...i feel two life forms approaching your office

"well, alice hasn't said anything to me yet"

trust me

"lilith!"
lilith jolts from the shout, she sits up straight and places the book down next to her "the fuck?" she whispers to herself, turning to the voice

"who the...allison?" lilith asks in shock, seeing her sister allison in her office. at any other day lilith would be happy and excited to see her sister, but seeing allison's frustrated expression confused lilith

"allison?" lilith repeats her sister's name, still not believing that she was here "hey" lilith whispers, a smile almost creeping on her face, but it vanished instantly as soon as she notices that allison was not happy, and this was not going to be a friendly visit

"i need something" allison states blankly, yet her eyes told lilith something else entirely. lilith stares right back at her before nodding "well, whatever it is i'm sure i can get it for you" she says

allison's face momentarily shifts before returning to its stoic one before "i need closure"

lilith blinks before chuckling softly at allison's request "i hope you remember who i am, allison. i'm the sister who's lived her entire life searching for everything but closure" lilith says, standing up to go over to the bar in the corner of the room. lilith grabs a bottle from a cabinet and with one swift motion, she opens the bottle with her teeth

she spits out the cork to a nearby trash can and motions for allison to have a drink "none for me" allison murmurs, lilith shrugs and takes a swig from the bottle "more vodka for me i guess"

"it's about ben"

lilith tenses, and she's almost sure allison notices, but she brushes it off and nods for allison to further elaborate "i just really need to know; why didn't you go to his funeral? we all went, we all thought you'd be the one pushing everyone out of the way to be close to him, and yet you didn't even go and i just wondered..." allison trails off, "if you even loved him"

lilith froze, but gently places her bottle of vodka on the bar, she'll need a drink after this. she slowly turns to look at allison, a blank expression on her face that most would consider enigmatic

"did you seriously just ask me that? did you seriously just asked me if i loved him?" she whispers, loud enough for allison to hear, allison didn't seem fazed by the sudden change in lilith's attitude, most of her new employees would've jumped out the window, but they were sisters

it was different

lilith scoffs and shakes her head "i can't believe you. how could you stoop so low?" lilith starts circling her, suddenly feeling a little bit angry
