03.2023 | WELCOME BACK! Hello friends old and new! I'm so excited to welcome you all back to SITW! I've made some changes to the plot and added the ability to play supernatural charcaters! So come and check it out! I can't wait to jump back into this little town with all of you!
A strange history surrounds the town, it is a place where mysterious and supernatural things have been known to happen. The reputation of the town reguarly draws in visitors and newcomers alike. While some residents avidly believe in the supernatural, others are far more skeptical. What do you believe?
It was pushing half past 1 in the afternoon and Callie found herself sitting in a booth at Rosie’s Diner. She was glancing through the menu, though she already knew what she’d be ordering. Mostly she wanted the coffee. After dropping off her friends, she didn’t get much sleep. The friend she stayed with snored so loudly, it was hard to get much rest. So here she sat in Rosie’s Diner, wearing high waisted jeans, a grey fitted cro top and tan long cardigan. Her long hair was pulled into a high set pony tail with a few braids wrapped around the base to cover the elastic band.
Callie grinned as the server set down her cup of coffee, the smell alone was enough to perk her up. She took a sip and let out a soft sigh of contentment. Callie sent a text to her mother letting her know she was getting a bite with a friend so they wouldn’t worry about her not showing up at the orchards this afternoon.

Alexis had quite the headache but that wasn't anything new after a night like last night. She pulled into Rosie's Diner with dark sunglasses and last nights curls looking a little more loose than they had before. She saw Callie in a booth and with a little wave she walked over to her and slid into the opposite.
"Hey girl," she said with a smile, taking off her sunglasses. She squinted a bit as her eyes adjusted and when the waitress came over she ordered a coffee and one of their breakfast combos which had eggs, sausages, and hashbrowns in hopes it would help her hangover. "Is it nap time yet?" she joked to her new friend, given that she had only been awake for about an hour.

It wasn’t long before Alexis walked into the diner, looking a little less lively than last night, but still stunning. Even her hair looked flawless and Callie couldn’t help but smile as she sat down across from her and removed the sun glasses. “Hey sleeping beauty.” She said with a soft chuckle and then sighed with a shrug of her shoulders, taking another sip of her coffee. “You know, I thinks it’s messed up that as children we’re praised for taking nap, but the older we get, the narrative gets twisted and turned into us being ‘lazy’… Rude.”
Callie handed the menu back to the waitress as she ordered herself a veggie omelette with toast and some bacon. She glanced at her phone to see her mother’s response and then tucked the device away in her pocket. “But, if we actually went through with moving out and getting a place together, no one could ever dictate when we could take naps.” She said with a soft chuckle, shaking her head a little as she took another sip from her coffee and accepted an offer of it being topped off. Callie honestly didn’t know if Alexis had been serious about the idea of them getting a place together, or heck if she even remembered the conversation. But as crazy as it might seem, it actually wasn’t a bad idea.

Alexis' glossy eyes brightened when Callie talked about their place again. She'd almost forgotten about that but it all came flooding back to her now. "See!" she said enthusiastically. "There are so many reasons why this is such a good idea!" she grinned, biting her lip as she imagined all the guys they could both bring home to fuck in their own private space. They could really up their party game too, though she'd obviously hire someone to clean up afterwards if they did that. It was her space after all, she didn't want it to be trashed. Maybe they'd stick to a finer crowd for company at their home.
"We're both over eighteen with tons of cash at our disposal. Really, who would deny us buying our own place together?" she said with a mischievous smile.

The feeling of instant relieve that washed over her as Alexis not only recalled the conversation, but seemed to be in full support of it. It was crazy, they’d barely had one conversation, and yet…
“Isn’t your dad a Realtor? If he’s on board, we could find a place in no time. I’m sure he’d know all the best places with the most privacy.” The idea of having a space that was her own, for parties and fun, with a friend who wanted the same things… was she crazy for thinking this could work? “Think of how much fun we’re going to have shopping to decorate!”
So maybe she wasn’t even questioning the craziness of it all. She wanted her own space. She could still visit her room at her parents’ house and stay over occasionally, and it’s not like they were talking about leaving town.

"Oh! Ya!" Alexis said, having not even thought about the fact that her dad could actually help them with his job. "I'm not sure if he'd be on board..." she hummed thoughtfully, trying to decide if he'd support the idea or be totally against it. If he was against it then it would be harder to do it anyway than if they just went behind his back...but ultimately it would be better if they did have his support. She smirked. "but I'm sure I can convince him if I need to." And she didn't doubt herself. She knew just how to play daddy, she was sure of it.
She let out an excited squeal of decorating their own space together. "Oh my gosh this is going to be the BEST!!" she said enthusiastically. "We could go talk to him after we eat if we want!" she said, perhaps jumping the gun too quickly in her excitement.

“oh, I’m sure you can sway him. I know my father will be easier to sway than my mother, but I’ve just gotta convince them it’s a good step for me.” Callie knew her parents would take issue with it, more so her mother. Her father would warm up near immediately at the mention of Alexis being her roommate. Town politic we’re silly like that. She smiled up at the server setting down their respective meals in front of them.
“hey, if you think it’s worth a try, I’m game if you are. ” she offered with a smile, taking a sip of her coffee and looking as her food. Picking a piece of bacon up and taking a bite.

While Alexis wasn't normally one to eat a lot of food, I mean, look at her perfect little body, she dug into her food right away this morning. Taking her first bit with a moan of satisfaction. The warm eggs and salty, fatty bacon was just was her hungover brain needed right now. It took her longer to reply as she got distracted by eating for a moment before setting down her fork and took a sip of her coffee.
"Ugh, moms," she agreed with a little smile. What was it about moms being more troublesome for teenage girls than their dads? "Great! We'll go see him after we're done." For some reasons he was looking forward to Callie meeting her dad but she had a better idea of who she really wanted Callie to meet. She kept it to herself for now but it was definitely a fantasy that she was pretty sure everyone would be excited about.

As Alexis seemed thrilled to begin enjoying her food, Callie smiled. A lot of her problem when she’d been drinking, aside from being severely underage, was she never ate enough to find a good balance. Just some things a child who shouldn’t have been drinking wouldn’t have been aware of. She shook her head lightly as she began to cut up and enjoy the veggie omelette, it was especially tasty today. They must have gotten in their produce order this morning, the peppers had an exceptionally nice snap to them.
Eyes shifted back to her friend as she spoke again and Callie gave a knowing nod. But then smiled at her enthusiasm that followed. “Sounds like a plan, has it been nice having him back from his work trip?” She asked with a raised brow. Her own father very seldom had trips for work that involved leaving town, she wondered what it must be like to have him gone for months at a time.

Alexis smiled. "Maybe it sounds weird, but yes. I much prefer when he's home. It's so much better with him around than just my mom." She didn't admit that she'd had fantasies about her father. She knew Callie was into older guys but that didn't mean she'd had the daddy fantasy and she was too worried her new friend would judge her. She'd been subtly trying to get closer to her dad but the chances of anything real happening seemed very low. For now she'd just have to keep that fantasy in her head when she was in her bed alone at night.
"Can I try your omelet?" she asked though she didn't wait for an answer before her fork took one of the corners and she popped it into her mouth. It was missing some of the savory saltiness that ham or sausage or bacon provided but it was still good nonetheless. She pushed her own plate closer to Callie in case she wanted a taste of something in return.

“No, that’s sweet. Sometimes I wish I was closer with my dad, I think he’s afraid I’m going to end up disappointing him if he gets to know me.” She shrugged a little, not really wanting to do the deep dive into her secrets right in Rosie’s Diner. Still, she felt like she could talk to Alexis and she was truly excited by the idea of them moving in together.
She raised a brow, then nodded with a smile, easing the plate forward. “Help yourself girl, my eye is always bigger than my stomach.” Callie teased with a gentle laugh, shaking her head and taking another bite of her bacon. “And not to brag, but I’m a decent cook too. So, just another reason I’d make a great roommate.”

It was sad to hear about the relationship that Callie had with her dad. She wondered if her dad really thought that or if Callie was just projecting her fears. She offered a sympathetic look but didn't know what to say. She did smile though when her new friend told her she could cook. "Ooo, lucky me! I'll be honest, I can't cook for shit." Not that she'd ever actually taken the time to try. Nor had she ever scrubbed a toilet or vacuumed a floor. That's what maids were for. She realized she might have to try harder just to make sure she wasn't a shitty roommate. Maybe daddy would pay for a maid too.
Feeling full she leaned back in her seat. "Should we grab the check and head out?" she asked, suddenly eager to get this show on the road.

She gave a smile at Alexis’ admission, chuckling lightly. “My mom liked to use family dinner as a bonding time, so we all would pitch in and help cook. Turns out I really enjoy working with my hands, so I found I enjoyed cooking too.” She popped the last piece of a strip of bacon in her mouth and chewed happily, enjoying the salty and savory flavor as she looked back to Alexis.
“Sure, I’m excited to see how this goes!” Callie admitted with a smile, waving to the server to get their tickets. “My treat.” She insisted, taking both and heading to the counter to pay.

Alexis smirked at her friend when she mentioned 'working with her hands'. She had the feeling that Callie was probably quite skilled in what she could use those hands for. She took a final bite of her food before following Callie out of the booth and didn't make any effort to stop her from paying for them both. "Oh you're too sweet," she said, wrapping her stylish coat more tightly around her so prepare to step outside.
With the bill paid they stepped back out into the cold but sunny day. "Want to just follow me to my house or do you wanna leave your car here and we'll pick it up later?" she asked.

“Oh, it’s no biggy.” She beamed with a smile, following the gorgeous blond outside and looking up to her with a raised brow as she considered the options. “I’ll ride with you, it’ll be fun to leave my parents wondering about where I am.” She teased with a grin, giving her long hair a toss over her shoulder as the cool air touched her face.
The idea of actually meeting with Alexis’ dad would quite exciting, because it made their plans seem even more real and less of a simple idea. “This is so exciting!”
