Around 7, Albert left. Natalia was staying the night, so Marley grabbed blankets. "We haven't hung out like this in forever!" Natalia smiled. "Yeah. I've been busy." Marley replies. 

"Well.. I'm glad we can have some girl time for once. No offense to Al." Natalia says. "'Girl time' is a very subjective term. Anything can really be considered girl time." Marley stated. "I know but like.. dumb shit. The stuff you see in Disney movies. I'm just so stressed about homework. I just wanna paint your nails and we can have boytalk. Or girl talk. Or whatever gender you like." Natalia ranted.

"Alright." Marley says, not sounding too bothered. "Wait.. really?" The blonde asked. "Yeah. I don't mind. Also about the boy or girl or anything else talk.. I'm bi." Marley answers. "Oh! I support! Congrats!" Natalia cheers. Marley thought she was making a bigger deal out of it than needed, but she was grateful anyway. 

"Soooooo... do you have your eyes on anyone in particular?" Natalia half-teased and half-asked. "..oh. Uh.. I mean.. there have been a few I had liked before.. I guess.." Marley muttered. "Tell me!" Natalia insisted. "..There's this one guy-" Marley started but then heard the phone ring. 

Thank whatever god there is. Marley was spared from making stuff up on the spot. In truth, yes, she had liked some people before, but during the time shortly before she became Tarot, she hadn't really liked anyone. Maybe an occasional flirt with some people, but that was always fun and games. Sure. There was one. But she didn't really think it'd help with the situation of balancing the lives of Marley Walker and Tarot the hero.

She picked up the phone. By that time, it was 9. "Hello?" She asked. The other line was silent for a minute. She was about to hang up when she heard someone. "-OH MY GOD GIVE ME THE PHONE. Oh. Hi Marley!-" a voice said. "Who is this?" Marley asked again. "This is William?" The voice said. "..Why are you calling?" She was starting to be annoyed.

"Come get your dumbass. He's at our house." William said. "He's actually pretty good at this game." Ezra could be heard in the background. "Okay me and Nat will go pick up Al-" Marley sighed, slightly more pissed off. "Oh no. Not Albert." William said. "Then who?" Marley asked.

"Just.. come over." 

"We gotta go get someone..." Marley said. Natalia shrugged. The two go next door to William and Ezra's house. William was sitting on a couch with a wooden box. Ezra and Thomas were playing what seemed to be CoD on the tv. "Pass a controller." Natalia said, immediately sitting next to them.

"And I have to ask: why the hell did you call me to pick him up?" Marley asked. "Ezra should sleep but they won't until they are done playing it with Thomas.. please take him away." William said. "Fine.." Marley grumbled.

"Hey idiot. You have to leave." Marley said. "..okay-" Thomas replied. "Awwww...." Natalia and Ezra both say, not wanting to stop playing. "You too Nat. Goodnight, Will. Goodnight Ezra." Marley says, picking up Thomas and Natalia.

She threw them onto the couches. She then daintily sits down next to Natalia. "You can paint my nails now." Marley said. 

Natalia just putting on a coat when she asked Thomas, "Weren't you at Quinn's earlier?" "I was dropping Liling off. She still is waiting for the return of her car." Thomas said. "I had to pick something up from William's and got distracted." 

"Oh. Cool." Natalia comments. Marley just sat in silence. She stared.
