Cully simply shrugged at Chloé at her suggestion they go out. Sure, it was a nice day today, but she didn't know whether she wanted to go out or not. She glanced at her window again, and caught a glimpse of the sun reflecting off the waves in the pool gently overlapping.

'Maybe,' was all she said, before she heard the door downstairs open. Glancing briefly at Chloé, she was up and out onto the hallway quickly as the familiar sound of her aunt's voice came up the stairs.
