Veronica spent the rest of her afternoon pouting. And floating. She drifted around the house, weightless and listless. Like you'd see in videos of astronauts in zero gravity. Hair all over the place, looking positively forlorn. She felt stupid, and her feelings were hurt. What had she honestly expected, though? All in all things had really turned out better than they could have, and she tried to take consolation in that, but she couldn't.
She pushed herself into the kitchen, gently bouncing off walls because she felt like she deserved to pretend to be as out of control as she was behaving. She picked up the remnants of a mug of tea she had made early and promptly un-ended in front of her. Instead of spilling to the floor, like one would expect, it hung suspended in her little bubble of fucked up gravity, and she poked at it. She liked watching the way it wobbled and split when she ran her finger through it.
It reminded her of being a kid and learning about her powers, and that gave her the smallest modicum of comfort. Because things couldn't be all bad, right? She could fly and control gravity for fuck's sake.
She was reaching. She wanted to feel better, so she attempted to place her sorrows else where.
She tried to find spaces in her mind that weren't filled with Michael's baby blue eyes, and his voice growling in her ear.
Using the cup, Veronica scooped up the tea that she wasn't going to drink, and when she set it back on the counter the gravity of it went back to normal.
When she returned to her room, her laptop was cheerfully telling her that she had a new email. Putting her feet back on the ground, she walked over to the bed and logged in to see what it was. A PDF from Professor Bell that she was going to wait until she got back to campus to print out. Mostly, because she didn't care what he had to say about her work, right now, and simultaneously because she didn't want to go through the effort of turning it right side up.
She was checking her social media when her phone went off. Finding it tucked under her pillow, she frowned because she didn't recognize the number and that could only mean one thing.
She cleared her throat, before pressing the answer button because she refused to let him hear that she was still upset. "Hello?" she chimed, doing her best to not to sound as dejected as she felt.

I fear no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) I want no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true) and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant and whatever a sun will always sing is you.
