"I'm makin' waffles!"

The next morning, I walked into the kitchen, still tired. Olivia was still reading something Shakespearian and Viridiana was scarfing down some Reese’s Puffs (Wow, those are still around?), and Rainn was… where was Rainn?
“Have you guys seen Rainn anywhere?” I asked them.
Olivia shook her head and V said, “I think he’s probably in his room… he should be down soon.”
I went over to the counter and made myself some toaster waffles and a glass of grape juice. When I had sat down at the table, Rainn was already there, stealing a waffle. “Hey!” I said, “L’eggo my Eggo!”
He laughed. “These are generic brand.” He poured syrup on the lonely mini-waffle and dove in.
I ate my breakfast, silent.

I ran into Olivia as I was coming out of my room. She had a suspicious look on her face and motioned for me to follow her. Um, okay, this is weird…
“What were you and Rainn doing in the library last night?” she asked once we were in her bedroom.
“How did you know we were in there?”
She smirked.
