Hex: “Ley, I’m sorry too. I am trying not to pry. I know you have a lot going on that you can’t share right now. I love you. I’m worried about you. I care about you. When you’re ready to talk, I’m here. If you want to take your mind off things, I’m here. Whatever you need, I’m here for you.”
Weatherly melts as he lifts their entwined hands, kissing the back of Hex’s softly. Deep down, she was hoping her declaration of her love for him would get him to open up, but he remains silent. She won’t press him. She hopes that once they graduate in a few days, her boyfriend will finally tell her what his worries are about.
Hex pulls Weatherly towards her, drawing him closer than they’ve been in weeks. He meets her in a passionate kiss, like she’s the air he needs to breathe. Hex gets blown away by the desperation of their embrace. Her lungs burn when they finally pull apart, gasping for air.
Weatherly: “I love you, Hexagon. I love you so much that I know I can whoop your butt at foosball.”
Hex giggles as Weatherly takes her hand and leads her away from the quiet corner of the bar. They’ve been gaming rivals since they were children. It’s their way of bonding, healthy competition and encouragement for each other. She pulls out her phone as she follows him, seeing that she’s already got a direct message from Vaughn to continue their discussion.
It’s not the night she expected, but Hex is so grateful to have her boyfriend back as well as making a new friend!

Weatherly: “Hex? There you are!”
Hex sits up straight when she hears her boyfriend’s voice. She clamps down on all of the alarm bells set off by her paranoid trait. Was she leaning in too close to Vaughn as they exchanged Social Bunny information? Did her gaze linger too long on him as he followed her line of sight?
Weatherly looks a little concerned as he walks over to the pair. Vaughn slips off his bar stool, making a point of meeting Weatherly. He offers his hand to him, drawing a hesitant handshake.
Vaughn: “You must be Weatherly. I’m Vaughn. Hex won’t stop talking about you! I think my friends have arrived. It was nice to meet you both.”
Weatherly: “You too…”
An awkward silence passes between Hex and Weatherly as they watch Vaughn walk away. The former swallows hard and reaches out, taking her boyfriend’s hand.
Weatherly: “I see you’ve been making friends.”
Hex: “Ley, don’t insinuate…”
Weatherly shakes his head, like he’s snapping out of a trance. He blows a kiss at her, laughing loudly when she playfully catches it. There’s the sim that she fell in love with, finally peeking out behind the clouds of concern.
Weatherly: “I didn’t mean it like that. I’m sorry. I’m sorry for leaving you by yourself whilst I was getting myself together. I’m glad you found someone to talk to.”
Hex feels a pang of guilt pierce her heart as she draws Weatherly into an embrace. She was very lightly flirting with Vaughn. She’s not like that normally. Weatherly is the only sim who has ever made her stomach swoop, or so she thought…

The more that they chat, the more that Hex likes Vaughn Weaver.
Her new friend is such a good sim. He doesn’t talk about it much, but he tells her about his time in the military before an injury to his ear forced him to quit. He’s around ten days older than her, and one of the mature students on his psychology course. He pursued an education, with the plan to become a teacher, so he can continue to serve his community.
Hex shares a little bit about herself. She tells Vaughn about her ‘economics’ degree (although she’s really studying villainy), with her hopes to start her own business one day. She forces herself to admit that she has a boyfriend, which doesn’t put a dampener on the conversation. Vaughn isn’t after anything apart from wanting to get to know her.
Vaughn: “That’s so sweet that you could study with your partner. Think of all the memories you’ve made that you can one day share with your kids. Uhh…if you want them, of course…”
Hex forces a smile onto her face, even as she clenches her jaw. The tension in her face must show, because Vaughn once again changes the subject. She doesn’t want to think about Weatherly and his bad mood right now. She wants to get to know the wholesome sim before her. Just chatting to Vaughn puts her in a good mood!

Hex and Vaughn settle in a quiet corner of the bar, with plenty of open space to watch other sims. Vaughn turns on his stool to face her, drawing her attention to him. Hex can’t help but feel her heart guiltily skip a beat. No one had looked at her that intently for a long time. Vaughn’s attention is completely focused on her.
Hex: “So…tell me more about you. Are you a student?”
Vaughn: “I am. Third semester - studying psychology. Drowning at work. Committed to stress. Ironic, considering my degree choice.”
Hex snorts with laughter, holding out her glass for a tongue-in-cheek cheers. Peach to that! She can’t wait to graduate soon and not have such a strict work schedule.
Hex: “Best of luck for your last couple of semesters. I’m actually graduating soon…probably tomorrow. This is a graduation celebration, what brings you to Gibbs Hill?”
Vaughn: “I should be wishing you luck for your graduation! Congrats for finishing uni! I was waiting for some friends, but it looks like they’re not gonna show up…”
Hex: “Guess I get you all to myself then.”
Vaughn breaks eye contact for a moment, shyly looking down into his glass. Hex bites down on her bottom lip, guilt grabbing hold of her throat. She’s very lightly flirting with this sim. She’s known him for five minutes, but he’s easy to talk to. She needs to slow down and change the topic of conversation!

The cute sim Hex approaches jumps slightly before half-turning to face her. Beneath his waves of light brown hair, Hex notices a hearing aid. She smiles apologetically, feeling awful for catching the sim off guard. She steps back and brushes some hair out of her face so her lips are easier to read.
Hex: “Sorry, I should have -“
???: “It’s okay, I knew you were there. I didn’t know you were that close…umm…”
Hex giggles as the sim’s cheeks flush awkwardly. She holds out her hand for him to shake, surprised by his strong grip. He’s adorable. Should she really be thinking that when she’s got a boyfriend?
Hex: “Well, at least let me get you another drink. I made you spill half of it on the bar.”
The sim follows her gaze, seeing a pool of blue liquid being mopped up by the bartender. His drink is three quarters full, but only because he’s been sipping from it. He hasn’t knocked it over. He smiles shyly when he catches on, thinking that Hex might be flirting with him.
???: “I can’t say no to that. I’m Vaughn. Vaughn Weaver.”
Hex grins, a genuine smile blossoming on her face as she flags down the bartender and places a new order. This sim is charming in a different way to Weatherly. He could be a new friend.
Hex: “Nice to meet ya, Vaughn Weaver! I’m Hex, and not normally this clumsy.”
Vaughn’s laugh makes Hex smile even more. Once she pays for their drinks, she makes a point of delicately handing the pint to her new acquaintance. She gestures toward a quieter area of the bar so they can chat.

Hex walks into the bar, filled with frustration. She’s reacting strongly to Weatherly being distracted by something on his phone. All she wants is her boyfriend’s attention.
He’s been off with her for the past two semesters. She’s tried to get him to open up, but he won’t confide in her. They’ve always been so close. She knows they’re soulmates. It crushes her to know that her boyfriend is going through something difficult and can’t share his concerns with her. Hex can’t wait forever for him to open up.
As Hex stops and looks around, her temper takes over even more. She wants to get attention from her boyfriend? What better way to do that than make him jealous? She’s never had such a toxic thought before, but…
A cute sim standing alone next to the bar catches her attention. Waves of brown hair fall into his eyes, a gorgeous light blue that reminds her of Weatherly’s darker blue eye colour. The sim before her is cleaner cut than her usual type, but he’s handsome! Hex won’t flirt with him, but striking up a conversation with someone who could be a threat would make Weatherly pay attention to her…
Taking a deep breath, Hex pushes her most charming smile onto her face as she approaches him from behind.
Hex: “Hi there! I’m Hex! Are you a new student? I haven’t seen you here before.”

Hex: “Really? Really, really?”
Weatherly looks up from his phone, completely confused. Hex was so wound up from his dismissive comment that she didn’t notice that he had pulled his phone out of his inventory. What gives? Can’t he keep away from his phone for one night to spend time with her?
Weatherly: “What?”
Hex: “It’s Results Day tomorrow? This is our last night out as students? I know you have a lot going on, but couldn’t you -“
Weatherly: “Hex, don’t go there.”
Hex stops short, eyes widening at the sharpness in her boyfriend’s tone. Plumbobs, she’s never heard him have an edge in his voice. She must have hit a nerve with her comments. Her temper flares, rather than her concern for her boyfriend’s feelings.
Hex: “Fine. Stay out here and have fun by yourself! I’ll be at the bar if you remember that I exist.”
Weatherly sighs and shakes his head as Hex turns on her heel and stomps into the bar. He knows he’s distracted. He wants to celebrate with her, but rather than feeling excited, fear holds hard to his heart. Hex can’t wait to graduate, but Weatherly wants to study as long as possible.
He needs to tell his girlfriend what’s going on, but he doesn’t want to upset those asking him to keep his worries a secret.

Hex is in such a good mood as she gets ready for her final night out at university! She hums to herself as she curls her hair and twists it back into an elegant updo. She pulls tendrils of hair forward to frame her face. Her makeup is the same as her everyday routine - smoky eyes and a neutral lip. She’s gone all out for her outfit tonight. She can’t wait to drink and dance the night away!
When she meets Weatherly outside of their dorm, she’s a little disappointed by his outfit choice. Her boyfriend always looks handsome, but he’s just thrown on a beanie and one of his favourite t-shirts and a pair of jeans. He looks good, but comfortable. She was kinda hoping he’d make an effort like she has, so they could take some cute selfies to celebrate their last social night at university!
Hex: “You look cute, Ley! It’s a big night! Let’s snap a selfie to -“
Weatherly: “Huh? Why?”
Hex folds her arms over her chest, fixing her boyfriend with a hard stare. She knows he wasn’t overly keen on coming out tonight, if she’s been so patient with his broodiness. Hex just wants to have fun tonight. Maybe she should have left Weatherly at home…

Taking a deep breath, Hex fixes Weatherly with the most excited, brightest smile that she can muster. He knows her too well. Her grin pushes a curious, concerned eyebrow to raise on his face.
Weatherly: “I know that smile. What are you plotting?”
Hex: “Noooooothing. Nothing evil, anyway. There’s a party at the bar in Gibbs Hill tonight. We should celebrate our grades and party! Wanna come with me?”
She keeps her voice light and innocent, hoping that her mood will make Weatherly feel at ease. He’s been so unpredictable lately. She can’t judge how he’s feeling, as she still refuses to use her alien abilities to consciously read his mind. She sometimes catches his mood swings by accident, but she respects her boyfriend too much to willingly invade his privacy, even if his troubles put distance between them.
Weatherly: “Oh…I dunno. I don’t have a lot of simoleons to pay for drinks or food right now…”
Hex: “Ley, we’ve been over this! I’m not worried about simoleons. I’ve got you. I just want you to have a good time. Pretty please - come with me?”
Weatherly hesitates, but eventually agrees to go out with Hex after she presses a light kiss to his cheek. The whispers in his ear about other things they could get up to sweetens the deal. Hex can’t wait to let loose before she graduates and gets thrown into the real world!

Hex’s final semester is so uneventful that before she realises, it’s the night before results day!
After dropping out of the football team after her second semester, Hex had more time to focus on her school work. Weatherly left the team after his third semester, but spent his free time visiting his family in San Sequoia.
She can’t get him to open up, but she can make him laugh. Hex pulls Weatherly close and demands they snap some selfies to celebrate surviving university. She pulls funny faces, drawing heartfelt laughter out of her beloved boyfriend. Her heart flutters when she pulls the phone back and scrolls through their photos. They look so happy. No one would know there’s trouble beneath the surface.
Weatherly may be struggling lately, but a night out to celebrate their graduation coming up might lift his spirits. Hex has been tiptoeing around her boyfriend and trying to be conscious of his feelings, but she needs a break. Living on edge and being worried about saying the wrong thing is exhausting. She respects him not being ready to talk to her, even if she gently encourages him to open up.
That’s it. Hex needs a night out to let her hair down!

Slowly but surely, Hex chips away at the barriers Weatherly puts up around his heart.
Since they stormed away from Weatherly’s sisters’ house, he’s been reclusive and not very affectionate. Deep down, Hex was panicking and wondering if he’d fallen for another sim. That doesn’t seem to be the case, but her boyfriend was emotionally distancing himself from her. She can’t get him to admit why, but at least he’s showing her more interest now.
Hex keeps their topics of conversation light. She doesn’t mention their graduation or their future thereafter. It feels too awkward to plan her life right now with Weatherly being so resistant.
Hex: “Awww! Thorne and Lovella are trying for another baby!”
Weatherly looks up at her, an amused smile on his face. Her brother, Thorne, and his partner, Lovella, already have three children. Hex could see her having loads of nieces, nephews or niblings in the future!
Weatherly: “They’re putting the Wildfangs pack back on the map just by their own offspring.”
Hex: “The Moonwood Collective won’t know what’s hit them! Not sure I could handle that many kids…”
Hex blushes deeply when she realises what she’s said. She drops her gaze to her phone, scrolling the timeline on Social Bunny. Weatherly falls troublingly silent too. She wasn’t mentioning their future. She can’t say anything around him that will affect their relationship.
It’s so strange for Hex, a normally outspoken sim, to watch what she’s saying. She hopes her boyfriend will get out of his funk soon so they can get back to normal!

As their last semester passes by, Hex finally breaks through the walls around Weatherly’s heart. He finally speaks to her and asks for her help with his final presentation. He’s confident in the presentation itself, but not his ability to show off his work.
Hex plops down on a couch in the study area of their dorm, leaning forwards and propping her head between her hands. Her boyfriend has her full attention. She sees a ghost of a smile across his face, a hint of the sim she loves beneath his troubled exterior. He’s always loved her attention.
Weatherly’s confidence grows the more he speaks. He pauses for questions and gets surprised when Hex asks him about certain parts of his presentation. He stops himself so he can maintain his pacing, but the questions from his girlfriend spur him on. He finishes with a flourish, the proudest smile on his face when Hex applauds him.
Hex: “You sound great, Ley! That’s an A++ presentation!”
Celebrating his win, Weatherly strides over to her and throws his arms around his girlfriend. Hex melts into his embrace, having missed his touch since something outside of their relationship has been troubling him. When he pulls back, Hex takes advantage of their closeness and pulls him into a lingering, passionate kiss. Her boyfriend stiffens, but kisses her back feverishly.
Hex needs to work out what’s going on. Weatherly can’t keep pushing her away. He’s her everything. Whatever is bothering him is something that they can face together, rather than him battling it alone!

Results day!
Hex’s prayers are answered! She scored an A+ for her third semester! Her grades are back on track for graduating the top of her class! She wishes she could celebrate with her boyfriend, Weatherly, but he’s visiting his family without her.
She pulls out her phone to check her boyfriend’s location, but gets distracted by an incoming call from an unknown number. It’s the Llama Gang representative, Gabriella Avila, calling to check her results. She takes the call and hurries up to her dorm room to take the call, not wanting anyone to overhear.
Meanwhile, the weather changes as a storm cloud comes back from seeing his sisters. The murky, grey skies release a downpour of torrential rain, sending students running for cover. Not Weatherly, however, who needs the rain to cool his temper.
Stubbornly sitting on the ground, Weatherly pulls out his textbook to study. The rain pours down around him as he flips through the pages, not reading anything. His sisters have made him an ultimatum, the most difficult one of his life. His heart isn’t just torn. It’s shattered into a million pieces. Any decision he makes will be the wrong one.
Weatherly doesn’t have the heart to celebrate his grades, scoring another A+ for his third semester. Maybe he should flunk his next term so he can repeat it and not have to make an awful choice about his future.

Although her grades are stellar once again, Hex’s mind is filled with worry about not scoring well. Following a meeting with the criminal gang that funds her degree, Hex put in extra hard work to get back to an A+. Her results only slipped to an A due to some world glitches, but the ‘Llama’ threatened to drop her like a stone if she didn’t up her performance. What would happen if she ‘failed’ again?
An ancient rumour resurfaces on Social Bunny amongst fellow students, drawn out by results day getting closer. Apparently, if a sim leaves an offering of excellent quality food, the Sim God will bestow good grades upon them. Hex maxed her cooking skill during her teens, so she knows her offering will be very appreciated by the Sim God.
Hex threatens the canteen worker in her dorm to let her use the kitchen. She makes a huge bowl of mac and cheese - tasty and comforting. She leaves the offering in front of the statue, surprised when it disappears in a puff of smoke! Maybe the legends are true.
Hex: “Sim God, if you can hear me - do the right thing and help Weatherly. Bring him back to me. If you don’t…”
Sighing heavily, Hex realises she’s threatening an unseen deity. She’s talking to no body. Her words won’t be heard. She turns on her heel, turning her back on her futile attempts at helping herself and her boyfriend. What was she thinking? There’s no way that this will work.

Leaving Weatherly to his brooding, Hex heads out of the dorm to cause chaos.
Her boyfriend usually keeps her calm. Without an anchor to stop her sailing into a storm, Hex is ready to make mayhem. As she’s closer to her graduation, she wants to show off everything she’s learned. Her skills are sky high. Her confidence in her abilities is through the roof. She’s exceeded the expectations of those funding her degree (at least in her opinion!). Showing off her skills shows the investment in her education is worth it!
Hex can proudly hack any school system now. If someone annoys her during her classes, she’ll hack their test results so they fall one or two marks off of the closest grade. Her tutors are criminals themselves, yet no one discovers her tricks. They don’t know that she’s an alien, either!
Once Hex graduates, she has a list of demands to hand to the criminal organisation funding her degree. Education is all well and good, but her expert sleight of hand deserves a top position and a good salary.
She’s treading on thin ice, but the Llama Gang can’t lose their investment in her!
