I clapped my hands as I laughed. “I knew that you played indie or alternative music and my guess was correct.” I said. “I’m more into writing poems for now. I even have a whole notebook dedicated to it.” I explained. I wanted to hear some of his music but I wasn’t sure if he even had his phone with him. “Maybe if you show me some of your music it could give me inspiration?” I said while winking.
“If you throw me in the pool, you know that it will turn into a water war.” I said while crossing my arms. “Plus I’m strong so you probably won’t win.” I demonstated my strength by lifting up my arm and pretending that I had muscles. “Do you want to go get some food with me in the house?” I asked.
“Excuses excuses. Your fault for showing up with toilet paper for a swimsuit,” Aurie gasped dramatically at Aries, with her free hand placing on her chest. “You telling me this is a toilet paper?” She asked him while pointing at her swimsuit. “This is one of the sexiest swimsuits you could ever find to attract a boy.” She pointed towards and leaned a little closer to him to whisper, but not too close enough. “Don’t you ever… ever insult a girl’s swimsuit 'cuz that’s the only time where girls give a nice show for guys.” She told him with a smirk and leaned away from him slowly. “Plus, don’t tell me that you’re NOT enjoying the view. I certainly know you do.”
Aurie tried to contain her chuckle but she couldn’t help it seeing how he tried to cover up his reaction to my touch. She loved it when guys get affected by her, it’s just a simple game she loves to play. And she definitely knows how to make a guy react to her touch… any guy in honest. "Please. Do tell. Why did you fully make up your face when you knew you were coming to a pool party?” She smiled with a hidden smirk as she traced the rim of her cocktail glass with her pointer finger. “Just because it’s a pool party doesn’t mean that I don’t have to look my best, ya know?” She told him casually, yet with a slightly husky voice. She looked around to see if they can do anything interesting. The party was honestly getting boring for her. “You wanna do something interesting?” She asked him, not knowing what to do.
@jaytastic - is the party still going on? I’m so sorry it took me forever. I completely forgot about this…
"Yeah, that's usually people's first guess." He replied shrugging. He nodded as she explained and then reached to where his pocket should be. "Sh-t." He muttered, remembering where his phone was. "I left my phone at home," He started ", but, remind me again the next time I see you." He told her with a small smile. "I'll play you one of our demos."
"Is that a threat?" She teased, raising an eyebrow and giggling. She nodded in response to her question, pushing herself up off the ground and standing up. "Yeah, why not? I don't think I had lunch today, so I could go for some food right now." She answered, shrugging. She adjusted her cover up and let her hair down, putting the hair tie around her wrist.
I noticed that Micah was looking for his phone but he couldn’t find it. “Just my luck.” I said while shrugging. Today wasn’t really my lucky day considering that I was feeling gloomy, but that wasn’t a rare occurance.
“I left my phone at home, but, remind me again the next time I see you.”
“The funny thing is it probably won’t be hard to find you since we are all stuck here anyway.” I said while chuckling.
“I’ll play you one of our demos.”
“Great. Then I could be like one of those fangirls that stay in the front of the crowd at concerts.” I put my arms up in the air and waved them. Pretending that I was a fan at one of his concerts.
“Do you want it to be a threat?” I laughed. I waited for her to get up and we walked into the kitchen of the huge mansion to go to the food table. There were burgers, pizza, drinks and more. This party was truly great. I turned to Dianne. “Everyone in Lime Grove has fancy houses and I have a tree house. It’s unbelievable how good everyone’s houses look.” I explained while picking up a slice of pizza.
There was a party apparently, I wasn’t necessarily a party girl but I did have a somewhat good mood today, surprisingly nobody p!ssed me off yet.
There was a new guy in the neighborhood who hosted the party, so I’d might as well be nice and show up, it’s a good welcome.
I went up to my room, and got changed into a black bathing suit, thinking about it most of my cloths were black but sometimes I wanted a change, not this time. Black is always good.
I got ready, filled my dog’s food and water bowls and headed out to the party, I was a bit late but I didn’t mind.
The guy didn’t live too far from me so it was definitely walking distance which was nice.
I got to the house and went in looking around, there were many people.
I went over to the bar and grabbed myself a drink looking around.

He chuckled. "That's very true." He commented, crossing his legs. He watched as she pretended to be a fan at a concert, which made him laugh more. "Believe it or not, that's always my favourite part of our concerts, seeing the fans in the front row. They're always the best."
She laughed as she walked with Dianne to the kitchen. She took a plate, and scanned the food table. “A tree house?” She asked, stifling a laugh. “I don’t think that’s a bad thing. Tree houses are pretty cool.” She told her friend, putting a slice of pizza on her plate.
Christian lifted himself out of the pool and dried himself off with his towel before sliding on his flip flops and sunglasses. He walked through the party and got himself a drink, marvelling at the number of people in attendance. He moved towards where he had left his stuff and spotted Seth out of the corner of his eye. He walked over to where he was standing and gave him a small smile. “Hey Seth, how’s it going?” He asked him, taking a sip of his drink.
It had been a busy couple of days with no room for partying or excitement. I had a lot to do with the business and there was no room for error or distraction. Coffee was the only drug I knew.
I had taken a few looks and glances at the exposing site and it looked realistic. Maybe they wanted it to appear real?
I was slowly freaking out in my head despite the constant reminder it was fake and my nerves became overwhelming. I needed something to cool off. I needed a breather.
I had heard word of a pool party commencing this evening so I left the office and headed home.
I had a few things set in the house, dishes, silverware, food- essentials not much furniture however. I couldn’t find the time to sit down and online shop. Besides, it wasn’t like I’d be able to with this ridiculous lockdown.
I walked the empty halls of my mansion in frustration of finding my room.
I’ll be honest, I haven’t spent many nights in my house to get comfortable with it. I mostly slept in my office, it was simpler to just wake up and right away start work.
I finally found my room and rummaged through my closet.
I had gone shopping after forcing myself to so I had a few outfit choices, nothing for swimwear although.
It didn’t matter, I wasn’t a guy for water anyway.
After showering and getting dressed I walked outside and started the car. It only took a few seconds when I arrived.
I walked throughout the backyard squeezing through the staff, celebrities, and paparazzi.
I found myself at the bar and took I seat.
I ordered a club soda when I looked over to a girl examining the party.
“Is there always events like this in Lime Grove?” I asked.
I looked around, resting my back against the bar.
I grabbed myself a drink, a glass of whisky, and sipped it. Is there always events like this in Lime Grove?
I turned my gaze to see who was talking to me, it was a guy, I recognized his face but we have never spoke before.
“Lately there have been a lot more events like this” I said and looked around again “people are partying to forget” I snorted a chuckle and shook my head lightly before sipping my drink
“Not sure it’s working, but parties can be fun” I smirked lightly and looked at him @BlackBlood
I looked around to everyone drinking and splashing in the pool.
They had no care in the world.
It was truly magnificent.
“Forgetting… the site?” I asked for clarification.
“Do you believe it’s a hoax?”
I took a sip of my soda and eyed her.
“No matter how much we forget the end of fame is forever near. We can turn a blind eye and stay quiet but there is no steering clear.”
I drew my finger on the rim of my glass.
I had a bit of a knack for poetry. I had very little time on my hands but whenever I did, I’d sit down and write in a notebook. Sometimes for minutes or hours. I wrote poetry for 17 hours straight. I wasn’t smelling the best afterwards.
My father thought it was ridiculous and a waste of time.
Maybe it is.
Forgetting… the site?
“Obviously…” I said with a light shrug Do you believe it’s a hoax?
“I don’t actually” I said “it’s definitely a psycho though” I added and looked around, I still had no idea who it could be. No matter how much we forget the end of fame is forever near. We can turn a blind eye and stay quiet but there is no steering clear
“It has nothing to do with fame trust me” I said “it’s just some cruel person that decided to mess with people’s lives” I said with a bit of a frown thinking of how it remimded me of my father. @BlackBlood
I had never stopped and wondered who created the site.
Who was exposing secrets could be anyone. A celebrity, themselves, paparazzi. Everyone knew about it, and everyone had access.
“Who do you think is behind it?” I crossed my hands and leaned over the bar.
“I mean, it has to be someone who’s… enemies with everyone, wouldn’t you think?” I shrugged.
If we did catch the culprit, what could we do about it? If we tried to take them down, everyone would applaud the exposer.
“What can we even do about it?”
The party wasn’t too exciting and that was saying something because usually I could make any party fun for at least myself. I think it just has to do with everyones secrets being exposed and the lockdown of course too. Everything happening at one time, not so fun! “Hey Seth, how’s it going?" I looked to the voice and shrugged. “I guess I am fine, sort of bored but I guess drinking might help that!” I said while I raised my drink before taking a sip. “yourself?” @Caticorn
Days have been pretty boring here. It seemed like things have calmed down, there weren’t any new posts on the page which made her relax for a bit but knowing these people, that won’t last for long. Days have also been getting colder which wasn’t something she minded. She was one of those girls that liked to wear more clothes as she thought “fall” fashion was more comfortable and stylish. And like everyone else, she slowly started having less and less things in her fridge and it was impossible to make anything with the food she had. Soon they will all fight over food and as much as she wanted to see that happen she realized how that situation might be bad. Really bad.
Putting on a long dress and some simple sneakers, she picked up her little bag and car keys. Of course, she would just go to the market and buy as many things as she could, just something she is missing. Like milk or eggs. And for some reason, she enjoyed grocery shopping.
At the end of the day, if she wanted to eat and didn’t have anything she could always go to the restaurant but just like everyone else in this town, they will be short with food too.
Parking and locking her car, she fixed her ponytail before going in and taking a shopping cart, letting her arms rest on it as she started walking around.
My eyes fluttered open as I laid in my bed, waking up from my slumber. I was surprised to not be hungover, and for once remember the night before.
I stretched and grabbed my phone and began scrolling through my social media.
The exposing site had been quiet for the past few days. I had completely forgotten about it.
I looked at the site and tapped the icon that was bookmarked. I scrolled through the site reading the secrets that were displayed.
I quickly closed out the site and shook my head.
It wasn’t real, just some bored teenager making things up.
I let my phone rest on the nightstand as I rubbed my eyes and threw the covers off of me. I grabbed my phone and made my way to the bathroom.
The cold marble floor shocked my bare feet.
I scrolled through my emails and messages.
It was quiet.
How unusual.
I opened one of my messages and shrugged.
I woke up in the morning from sun rays hitting me straight in the eyes through my half closed window.
I yawned and rubbed my eyes waking up, it was a bit cold, but I had my blanket so it didn’t really affect me.
I got up and took a quick hot shower, there wasn’t an actually cold day in a while now, and I felt like maybe going to the mall to get some more winter clothes…
I got dressed and headed out to the mall, going through a few shops Approachable @BlackBlood
Like always, Leo woke up rather early and made himself some breakfast. At that time he would usually workout but that’s not something he could do now so he’s been just lying on his couch, watching the most random shows. The library was probably the last place someone would think they’d find Leo at and… maybe they were right. If it weren’t for this whole lockdown and his inability to do things he would normally do because of the accident, he wouldn’t be there. Besides watching TV and doing some work the only thing he could do is read. It’s not something he doesn’t like, he could just never find time for it. Until now.
Feeling energized but grumpy at the same time because of the pain, he got up from the couch going up to his bedroom to get dressed and leave the house. Before getting out, he threw on some warmer clothes and fixed his hair, looking for his airpods. Not being able to use his other bike was probably the hardest thing for him now, he always had to take a walk and it’s not something that was hard for him but bikes were his life.
Getting to the library after some time, he had no idea what to do first. What to look for. What would he even look for? Definitely not drama and romance. Maybe fantasy or action? Placing his hands in the pockets of jacket he started walking around and the first person he had the chance to spot was none other than Hailey. A girl that doesn’t like him that much and he never did anything about it. It was fun having people to annoy but it may be a thing he wanted to change. “Need any help, miss?” He said in a serious tone trying to sound like one of those librarians that would come up and offer their help. Resting his back against the shelves he cheekily smiled at her, not saying anything else.
