Pale morning sun washed the pink room in a soft glow. Regina lay sprawled across her bed, one hand idly twisting a lock of her famously insured blonde hair, the other holding her phone up to her ear. "Hey, you," she purred, the word drawn out and laced with something sweetly venomous. "You didn't text me back. That's a little pathetic, don't you think?" She waited, a smirk playing on her lips at the retort she knew was coming. When it arrived, she rolled her eyes theatrically. "Oh, please. Spare me. Look, do you want to get out of here? Gretchen's voice is hitting a new octave and Karen just asked me what a hypotenuse is. Cady's locked in her room. Come to the mall with me. It'll be a lot more interesting than whatever you're doing. I promise."
