[i]"It will be about 2 years now. Not that very long."[/i] Charlize responded trying to remember the exact date in her head. It had been somewhere in her data bank, but she would have to admit she was pretty lazy at the moment, so she didn't bother- [i]"Yes, about 2 years."[/i] she grinned, shoveling the food in to her petite mouth. Charli' gave a friendly nod toward Alastair as he sat down with a thud. The smell of a strong liquor interrupting the air. 

Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock. 

The whiskey was a mental trigger as Charlize's once smiling face dropped into a small panic. 
Her vague memories literally flashed before her eyes, as the grey irises of her eyes became a flashing a blank white slate. 

There she was, sitting in the parking lot of a fast food place with her friends late at night. They had all just been out drinking illegaly at a night club, dancing and trying to hook up with some guys. Two of them had lucked out and decided to grab some food before heading home. [i]"You are going to get me in so much trouble! You know how my dad is!"[/i] Charlize groaned, as the smell of alcohol and deep fried food filled the car. [b]"Oh Charli, what is he going to do? Kill ya?!"[/b] the other girl commented. They both bursted out with a laugh, as they continued to eat. [b]"Naw, love- I'll bring you home here in a minute."[/b] the dialogue was so crisp as if it was happening again. The image was lost. Then reappeared in a blur. Suddenly she was home walking up the drive way of their small home. Fumbling with her keys she tried to open the door as quietly as possible. 

BANG

[i]"No. No. No."[/i] Charlize mumbled as she shook her head in the present away from the images. Those weren't supposed to be in there. Those files were deleted so long ago, why were they here again? As her eyes returned to normal she tried to find the memories to delete them but they weren't in any of her ports. Running her hand over her head, she covered one of her eyes as her palm cradled her head. [i]"Maybe I overate and charged myself too fast."[/i] she thought, adjusting in her seat, hoping that she hadn't been seen by the faculty she was surrounded by.

As Beast's voice bellowed through the dining hall, Charlize almost felt a sense of relief sweep over her, she could lay down in her room that she expected to be all alone in, and get some much needed rest. [i]"It was a pleasure dining with you Issabella."[/i] Charlize commented, placing her hand gently on the woman's forearm. [i]"I will see you around most definitely."[/i]

Excusing herself she rushed towards her dorm room. It was still empty for the time being and so Charlize assumed (little did she know) it would be another year with the room to herself. Her task of unpacking would have to be another day, for taking the extra energy to move the beds together was her main priority. Soon after this task she stripped of all her clothes and got comfortable in her now queen sized bed. Slowly blinking Charlize went through her ports and arranged the necessary things before dozing off pretty quickly. It had been an exhausting journey arriving at the academy, and she knew that tomorrow would be a long day of missions and classwork.
