Life isn't always predictable. For Annabelle, that means letting Kelly crash in her flat whenever she asks. Annabelle doesn't ask where she's been, though sometimes there is blood to clean up and bandages to change. The sex always starts sometime before the shower, and always ends with Kelly falling asleep too fast. They wake in the morning, tangled in each other, and she thinks about how this could have been different.
If there hadn't been St. Trinian's, if there hadn't been Kelly--Annabelle doesn't need to think about her once predictable life, to know which she prefers.
Being with Kelly means something, and Annabelle thinks of tattoos and permanence, even as Kelly rolls out of bed with a soft kiss and sidles off to shower.
Annabelle can hear the water, and she smiles at Kelly's shriek when the water tank (which is far too small) gives out, shifting the water from lovely to ice-cold. Even after six months, Kelly's forgotten about it.
Unbidden, Annabelle thinks about breakfast, and whether Kelly will stay this time. She'll ask. And it will be awkward as Kelly makes excuses and Annabelle will be left with frozen pastries and no one to eat with.
