Lorenzo didn’t understand Hope at all. It wasn’t usually this hard for him to understand A girl. He was confused why she seemed so shy and stuttering. Like they have hung out before. Granted they never really talked before now. She then said he was pretty or beautiful. He laughed at this. “The word is cute. Or handsome. I can’t be pretty or beautiful. Those are girl terms.”

She then said “Baseball! Right! How could I forget?” He laughed with her at this. “Well obviously you forgot, and pretty easily too.” He laughed again. It was cute how confused she seemed. She then talked about how she wanted to travel the world. This wasn’t shocking or a secret to him. “That’s not very shocking.” He chuckled. He wanted to know a secret. That didn’t seem like a secret to him but he smiled anyways.

“Why are you so nervous?” He asked her really curious about it. He didn’t understand how someone so pretty could be that way. She should be confident. He wanted her to be comfortable with him but boy was she making it hard. He was so easy going and usually people found him easy to talk to. He didn’t understand why this was so hard for her. He then poured himself another two shots and grabbed another beer. He wasn’t an alcoholic just liked to party when it wasn’t baseball season.

Rodney couldn’t help but to smile when Owen asked “Ah, someone caught your eye, huh?” Rodney chuckled. “Honestly nothing juicy to tell. He bumped into me and knocked me down and we got all tangled with each other. Then we talked till the speech started. Haven’t seen him since. However there was a vibe there. His name is Kenneth. He is a cutie for sure.”

Rodney smiled and blushed more talking about Ken gave him butterflies in his stomach to be honest. He never felt this way about a guy before. It kind of scared him. Owen then looked at his phone again and texted someone again. After Owen got done texting he said “Sorry about that. So, tell me more about this sweet guy from the speech. What’s his story?” Rodney smiled.

“Well his nickname is Birdie, which is a cute story that he told me. Or well I find it cute. He has these gorgeous brown eyes and this brown wavy or curly hair. I think it’s more wavy. He just recently moved close to here. I just find myself wanting to know more about him honestly.”

Finn couldn’t help but smile as they pulled away from each again. It was a more passionate kiss that time and it made Finn feel some kind of way for sure. He knew he liked Kayden. However he also knew he liked Shiloh. Part of him felt he needed to kiss Shiloh to know how much. Because right now Kayden was winning the race to his heart. He smiled as they came apart and Kayden spoke.

Kayden said “Yes handsome it was perfect. Sorry when I get nervous I start rambling. But I liked that kiss.” This made Finn blush. Kayden was the sweetest person Finn ever met. He had Finn’s attention for sure. He hoped even if this kiss meant nothing and even if they didn’t end up dating they could at least be friends. “I’m glad you liked cutie, because I did too. Please don’t apologize for rambling. I thought it was cute.”

Finn could feel himself starting to have his feelings grown for Kayden. Which scared him some but he wasn’t gonna let that show. He still had Shiloh in his head too. However he had plans with Kayden. Taking pictures together for their eyes only. Finn couldn’t wait to do this. Then Kayden asked “Do you know who’s turn it is in our 20 question game? I lost track.”

Finn smiled. “It’s mine turn.” He paused. He hd a few questions to be honest however one popped into his head and he couldn’t help but to ask it. he looked deep into Kayden’s eyes. “Where do you think will this go? Like you and me? I know we just met and all but just wanted to hear your thoughts.” He was nervous to hear Kayden’s response to this. However he just wanted to know if Kayden saw them as friends or possibly more than friends.

Jade was looking deep into Enzo’s eyes. She was lost in their little world in the moment. She didn’t care who could see them. Normally she wouldn’t be caught dead with him. Well not like this anyways. They were usually always fighting and bickering back and forth. She couldn’t believe that in this moment they were on the dance floor. Enjoying each other’s embrace, and kissing and confessing their love for each other. She was shocked by her own actions. However she waited for this day for three years.

She was so ecstatic that it was finally here. Vincenzo said “Yes, Jayda, I think I first loved you freshman year.” This made Jade blush harder. “Oh, Vince… You’re the sweetest, you know that right?” She took a deep breath before continuing. “Honestly… I think I’ve loved you since than too. Well it was your freshman year and my sophomore year.” She giggled and seductively placed her hand on his chest.

She was trying to let him know she wanted more of him. More kisses, cuddles and just more of him in general. Truth was she hasn’t really had a serious relationship since she met him at hopes they would end up together. She only had flings that meant nothing or one night stands. She smiled at him sweetly as she looked deep into his eyes. She was mesmerized.

She than heard him say "Per favore, promettimi che questo non è un sogno,” Right before she was going to ask what that meant he said it in English for her. It had sent shivers to her whole body. He said “Please promise me this is not a dream,” She smiled the whispers of his breath warm on her ear. Then before she could respond he spoke once more. He said “That when I wake up tomorrow, I’ll still have you by my side.”

This made her heart skip a beat. She blushed and smiled and replied. “Vincenzo, my dear dear sweet and sexy Vince… This isn’t a dream. I promise you. This is the real thing. I would love nothing more then to wake up by your side.” She smiled. She knew they weren’t suppose to be in each other’s dorms. She didn’t care though. She wanted to cuddle with him and sleep with him. Sure she wanted to have sex with him as well.

However she would be fine with just being in his arms to sleep. That was something she never did before though. She didn’t even care if they went to the town and got a hotel room. She just wanted to lay next to him for the first time. She wanted to listen to his heartbeat as she fell asleep. She kissed him once again. This time deeper than before. “I love you Vincenzo Dean Coppola!” She nearly shouted not caring who heard and who would judge her. She didn’t care if the whole world knew. She finally expressed herself.

@eunoia Vincenzo Yes we so do… How about Vincade? lol that probably sucks. :joy:

Lila had just gotten Owen’s response and was smiling like a fool at her phone after reading his text. When the guy came back up. Saying he was sorry. Lila replied “yes, I’m still here and it’s no problem that you took a while. Sorry to hear about your roommate. One special while I respond to the text.” She said then responded to Owen

He just came out. So on my way now. See you soon handsome! :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

Lila put her phone in her pocket. “Well from the looks of it. The coach’s lights are off. So maybe he is at the party. Even though usually I don’t think the adults go to it.” She shrugged. “Well let’s go. We better hurry.” She said as she lead the way to the party. She was super excited to see Owen.

Leo smirked as they danced with no space between them. This made Leo happy and content. He didn’t care if Katrina or Killian was watching. In his eyes dancing with someone wasn’t wrong or cheating. However he was so horny. Since he hasn’t had sex in months. To him it felt like forever. He smiled as she told him

“Sure, one thing about me, I thrive on adventure. The thrill of the unknown, the adrenaline rush of exploring uncharted…territory. That’s what makes me tick.” They danced and swayed to the music. He loved dancing and Katrina didn’t seem like she really even wanted to be here. He knew he couldn’t really win Katrina over so why not have some fun.

He smirked as she said the things she did. She then said “I think I’ve found my dance partner for the night.” He smirked and leaned in close to her ear. He knew for sure this would send chills all over her whole body. So it made it that much better. “first and for most sexy. Uncharted territory is the best place to explore. I’m glad you found your dance partner for the night.”

He said as he spun her around and then pulled her back to him. Pressing his body against hers. He then continued. “So let’s forget our worries and dance the night away.” He was always confident in himself and his abilities to flirt and turn on a girl.

“Plus exploring uncharted territory can be fun, mysterious, and rewarding all at the same time. So tell me more about yourself beautiful? I’ve seen you around. Glad I finally worked up the courage to talk with you though. Who knows… This might end up being the best night of our lives.”

He said as he spun her around again. Their feet and bodies in perfect rhythm to the music. They were moving in perfect harmony together. He started to feel his worrieswash away slowly. He however needed more drink and smoke soon. However he couldn’t walk away from her. He was captivated and mesmerize by her beauty. He was honestly trying to forget what Brex said about Killian.

Brex had found a nice place to sit and relax while Madi had been gone and since he knew Jasper would be around soon he honestly didnt mind that he had been left alone. It was a pleasant surprise when Madi came back. She explained the situation and that she had her drink spilled on her and had changed. That was fair and honestly a good reason to disappear for a bit so he nodded understanding.

Brex was even more surprised that she still wanted to talk. “Thats fine what do you want to talk about?” he asked hoping it was anything other than get to know you things Brex didnt want to share a lot of that kind of information so it was hard to weed out what could be shared. He apology was really sincere and he nodded in understanding. “Its ok I get it no reason to feel bad about it. I mean who would want to walk around covered in drink. If you had it would have put a damper on your night.” he took the water bottle from her with a soft smile.

“Ah thanks.” he said as he uncapped the bottle and took a drink. And there was the get to know me questions he had been dreading. He was going to ask what she wanted to know a more direct question would leave him less to weed through about what he even wanted to share. “What exactly do you want to know?”

"Okay, I’m listening. Put the kid on the phone and I’ll believe you.” Coltrane replied.

Rob balled his hand into a fist, whispering a “Yesss.” He handed the phone to the girl, letting her speak.

“Hello? Professor Coltrane, right? I apologize for bothering you. Professor McConnell told me you’d offer to give us a ride?” As she spoke, she glanced at Rob for his approval. He gave her a thumbs up and she continued. “So, there’s three of us that came from another school and since it’s late we don’t have snother way to get back to campus. We’d greatly appreciate your help. Thank you for the offer.”

Rob was silently snickering as she spoke, knowing Coltrane wouldn’t turn down a helpless group of kids. He glanced at the drink he prepared for him sitting at the bar, glad he’d be able to give it to him soon.

I smile at him, he was so understanding and sweet about it. I was happy that he didn’t mind me rambling or how stupid I was sounding. “Well that is good that you don’t mind my rambling and that you enjoyed the kiss. Now you can also say that you had you first kiss.” Kayden smiles really big at him.

He almost forgot that he asked Finn who’s turn it was for the 20 questions and he snapped out when Finn said it was his. He then asked his question which was about us. “Honestly I am not sure. I mean I want to keep talking and see where it goes. If it leads to something more then I would be fine with that but if we just stay friends I am fine with that as well. All I know is that I don’t want to lose you.”

Madi could tell that Brex didn’t like or really want to do the getting to know you questions so she figured she would not ask any personal questions or anything like that or at least not yet. “Okay I will start off easy then I guess. What is your favorite food?” Madi then takes a drink of her water herself as she waits for his answer. She usually is an open book but there are some topics that she also doesn’t like to talk about so she understands why Brex might not like to open up or has walls up, but she wondered if they kept talking if he would eventually open up a little more. Now not enough that she breaks down his walls but maybe can get a tiny bit more personal.

“No, I wouldn’t say you were a b-tch… I just didn’t mean for you to see that because I didn’t wanna start an argument or anything.”

“That’s understandable not getting it or having that type of relationship…" she continued speaking.

“Maybe one day I will, yeah. I mean, should be easy. Who wouldn’t wanna date me?” He laughed halfheartedly, straining to maintain his fake persona. He was definitely not the type to be closed off to relationships. He tried everything but in the end it never worked out. People likely thought he was some player who never cared about his dates, when it was far from the truth.

Adrian heard her say how a part of her wants to try again, making him more confused. It was harder to decide whether he wanted to set them up together or not. A part of him knew he jumped to conclusions about their relationship in his bitterness, but he couldn’t even be sure. “He moved on so fast?” He wanted some kind of confirmation, for anything at that point.

She answered his question about cheating so calmly, even if Adrian said it with bad intentions. No matter what he said so far, she just wasn’t the type to get angry. Chloe was surprisingly honest. A part of him began to trust her, even if he disliked the fact she’d cheated. He nodded as she spoke. “Right…” he sighed. “I don’t know anymore,” he voiced his confusion out loud.

When Chloe agreed to get a drink and changed the subject, he sighed in relief. He immediately began walking to the drink table. Adrian wasn’t in the right state of mind for their relationship drama, as much as he wanted to figure it out. He needed a break, not to worry about Hope, Lorenzo and Chloe’s weird love triangle. As curious as he was, drinks first. He’d worry later. He stopped by the table and grabbed a cocktail. “I wanna try all of these, one of each.” He took a sip. “I don’t know what else you wanna know about me. I like…” things he tried to keep hidden from others. He didn’t know what to tell her. “Parties, for one. I also like travel. Just saying things on my mind, I like having fun I guess. Life is meant to be enjoyed!” he said, pouring the drink down his throat and grabbing another one. “What about you though? Maybe we got off on the wrong foot considering I only know you as some cheater.”

Aria responded with a light-hearted and supportive tone, “Haha, fair enough! Just don’t go too wild out there. Safety first, remember?” She understood injuries was something that came with sports, especially the type Cal was trying. When discussing baseball, Aria nodded she was up for signing up for it, “You caught me! Maybe a bit of inspiration is rubbing off. I’m all in for giving baseball a try, and signing up together after our work today!” She confirmed with her words. Talking about inclusivity in sports, Cal’s mentally was infectious for Aria too, “Absolutely! Change might take time, but if we work together and advocate for it, we can make a difference!”

Aria gave a smile and muttered an “Of course”, Aria then listened attentively to Cal venting to her. She reacted empathetic to their story, confirming what she had already thought, that Cal really hadn’t had the easiest route. She offered a supportive smile, and in support put a hand on Cal’s shoulder “Cal, that sounds like a challenging situation to navigate. It’s must not be easy to find yourself in a new place under those circumstances.” She continued asking the question Cal asked, “As for me, yeah, I got here on a scholarship, my grades, and blog and activism, were enough to get me here.” she explained.

When they discussed sources and how they would do their research, Aria listened in detail to everything that Cal was saying. “Absolutely, Cal! Your approach makes sense. Researching while doing something you enjoy can make the process more engaging. I love the idea! It adds a unique touch, and we can gather valuable insights from different perspectives.” She said, not only because she thought it would actually contribute to their research, but also because she thought it would be fun watching some with an enthusiast as Cal. “Let’s begin with the online research, and as we progress, we can incorporate movies and series into it. And yeah, the online research is basically what you said, but I’m here to show you the ropes if you need a hand! I’m excited to see what we can uncover together. Ready to dive into our first round of research?” She asked, looking at Cal. She then went ahead and opened up her laptop, ready to get to work.

Owen chuckled as Rodney shared the encounter with Kenneth. “Sounds like quite the meet-cute, huh? Getting tangled up and talking till the speech started - that’s not your usual introduction. Kenneth, huh? Well, if there’s a vibe, maybe you’ll run into him again. Keep me posted, man,” Owen said, his tone carrying a mix of amusement and genuine interest in Rodney’s experience. Even if Rodney played it pretty cool, Owen clearly noted that there was something going on there.

Owen smiled, intrigued by Rodney’s description of Kenneth. “Birdie, huh? Sounds like there’s more to the story. And those brown eyes and wavy hair must make quite an impression. Getting curious, aren’t you?” Owen said, acknowledging Rodney’s interest with a friendly tone.

He then said, “I was just messaging with the girl I was looking for.” Owen blurred out, his face turning red as he spoke. He actually hadn’t wanted to share too much about it, but a combination of Rodney’s openness, the alcohol and feelings made it impossible to hold it in. “I’m leaving the party soo-” He then heard another message coming through and quickly changed it into, “now to see her. But have a blast of an evening man. Hope you’ll find Kenneth!” He gave Rodney a fist bump and said goodbye with a “Catch you later man!”

As he walked outside the shed, he didn’t wait to message Lila back.

They kept walking and got to the drink table and she made herself a few shots to drink. As she was making it Adrian was talking he told her that she wasn’t a bitch which she was happy about. “Well thanks and nah I wouldn’t start a fight or argument over something like that. The only time it will be an argument is if you talked shit about my family and close friends that is really it.”

She could tell a little more that he was thinking about something or was having doubts but she let it go. She then took her shots and quickly drank them. Adrian then asked he moved on so fast? She was not sure if Adrian was inexperienced or not, I mean she didn’t know for a full on fact but the way he is flirting and talking with Hope she felt like he was. “I mean yeah. Don’t you think if he didn’t move on he would have been flirting with me or talking to me? Instead he called Hope beautiful and asked to walk away so they can talk privately.” She looked him in the eyes as he sounded confused and she just shrugged it off.

As they kept talking at the drinks table Adrian said that he wanted to try all the drinks. Chloe can be a party girl and drink a lot but even for her all these drinks is too much for her so she was a little worried about him and wondered if he had some issues with alcohol. She doesn’t want to stop him but she also doesn’t want to see him go crazy ad do something he will regret. She figured she would let him have 1 or 2 more than try to stop him.

Chloe also listened to some of the stuff he was saying that he liked to do. She understood the partying and that we are supposed to enjoy life especially since they are so young. “Well that sounds like fun and I get it. Ouch that hurt saying you only know me as some cheater.” She said that in a sarcastic tone and laughs hard at that so she was joking about the ouch part and that her feelings weren’t hurt. “But as for me I also like to party, swim, play tennis, shopping, go to the beach, surf, beach volleyball, work out, run, be in Lorenzo’s videos as I’ve been in a few. I am actually going to try out for the swim team, and tennis team this year.”

Finn smiles at Kayden as he says “Well that is good that you don’t mind my rambling and that you enjoyed the kiss. Now you can also say that you had you first kiss.” Finn smiled at this. “Well I find your rambling rather cute. Yes I can now say I had my first kiss with the hottest guy I have ever met.” Finn blushed at this. He couldn’t believe himself. He felt he might be laying it on too thick. He hoped he didn’t turn Kayden off by his actions and words. He was so nervous. It felt like it took Kayden forever to answer Finn’s question.

Then finally Kayden said “Honestly I am not sure. I mean I want to keep talking and see where it goes. If it leads to something more then I would be fine with that but if we just stay friends I am fine with that as well. All I know is that I don’t want to lose you.” Finn felt his heart start to race as Kayden first started talking. When Kayden got to the end of what he was saying it was a relief for Finn. Finn smiled and replied “I feel the same way. I don’t want to lose you either. I’m not sure where it’s heading either, but whatever happens I would love to still be friends with you.”

Finn said this being one hundred percent honest and vulnerable. Finn looked deep into Kayden’s eyes with a sparkle in his eye. “I know it seems crazy but you are the best person I have ever met, and sweetest guy as well. You are just so adorable and sexy.” He paused and tried to reads Kayden’s face. “I mean… like I know it’s crazy and all… I just hope it doesn’t scare you off or anything like that. I mean I know you said friends no matter what and I agree. Do you like me though… like more than a friend?”

He knew it wasn’t his question but in the moment and in his rambling he did ask another question. He was rambling on and on as they sat there looking into each others eyes. He couldn’t stop himself from talking. He kind of wished that Kayden would hiss kiss him to shut him up. Maybe that’s why he was doing it in the first place.

When she asked for some basics of acting, Jasper replied, “Absolutely, mate! Acting’s a grand adventure. So, here’s the scoop - immerse yourself in the character, feel the scene in your bones, and let those emotions run wild. It’s a bit like painting with words and expressions. And remember, it’s not just about saying lines; it’s about living them. The camera captures the soul, so let yours shine. Break a leg, and above all, enjoy the ride!” That last part really was the most important he had found, the best actors, whether it was ton stage or screen, where those who actually had fun with it and enjoyed the whole experience. It showed when someone wasn’t enjoying playing their role, Jasper had noted that so often, even if it was just in the small details.

When she said she had assumed he was into theatre, he replied with an enthusiasm in his voice, “No worries at all! Spot on, though - I’m a theatre nut through and through. Though, in the grand scheme of things, I’m aiming to be an actor down the line. It’s the long-term goal, you know?” He admitted to Shiloh. There was somewhat of a rivalry between the stage and the screen, but Jasper enjoyed it both, as long as he could emerge himself in a role.

When Shiloh went into a rant about the expectations put on her by her mother, Jasper tried to encourage her to be positive about this acting experience. He replied, “Oh, I get it, love. Parents can be a bit full-on with their expectations. But I would say, give acting a whirl! It might just be the change you’re looking for. You never know, it might become your new happy place, a break from the modeling. Worth a shot, don’t you reckon?”

Coach expected for Rob to take the phone a short distance away from himself and then bring it back to his ear, making it seem as if he passed the phone, and start talking in a voice. And just like he figured, Professor Rob passed the phone, but the voice that greeted him on the side … Well, let’s just say if Professor Rob sounds like that his pay would be cut immediately. Coach shot up form his seat, suddenly being worried about poor kids that need a ride and he said “I’ll be right there!” And hung up.

Coach locked his office and turned off hiss lights and made his way to the party. He drove his car in front of the party in anticipation to drive students, so they wouldn’t have to walk ALL the way to his office to get to a car. They probably have a curfew and might get in trouble if he wastes too much time. He entered the party, to see Robert there, but no kids were around him, and he was smiling like an ass. When he saw that smile, Coltrane realized exactly what happened. Defeated, and ready to sigh, he joined him at the bar. "I’ll let you buy me one drink. That’s it!

Brex advised that he doesn’t like to talk about how he grew up and that it was complicated and that he wasn’t trying to sound mean. She appreciated him explaining to her and even though she doesn’t know Brex she got the sense that it was a hard subject from him and she’s not going to pressure someone to talk if they don’t want to talk. Truth is she doesn’t like to talk about her dad, he hurt her mainly after her parents divorced. He jus left and does not even call or text her or go to her sporting events, heck she didn’t even know if he lived around here or in this state anymore.

“I don;t think that you sound mean about it. I’m not going to make you talk about things that you don’t want to talk about even if I am a little curious. It can get very uncomfortable if people put pressure on you to answer certain questions. As for your favorite dinner that sounds honestly really nice and good.”

Madi had to think a few moments on what her favorite food was since there was so many. “My favorite food? I would have to say is my moms chicken pot pie. There is some secret ingredient in there that I don’t know. It’s like my great great grandma’s recipe or something like that.” She shrugs and then takes a sip of her water. “Listen I do want to apologize on case I felt like I was pressuring you to talk to me or asking personal questions. I really hope I didn’t but if I did I am very sorry.”

When he started talking about acting, she could tell he was excited about it, and she loved hearing people talk about something they’re interested in, because once you ask them, their eyes light up and they just beam with delight as they tell you about it. She smiled as he spoke, wanting to have that sort of excitement for anything in her life, but the most excitement she ever had since the modeling started, except for the rivalry with Finn. Thinking about him, she realized how the excitement would probably no longer be there if he ever turned into anything more than her rival. She turned her head in hoping to spot him, but she didn’t want to seem rude so she focused back on Jasper almost immediately and didn’t get enough time to find Finn.
“Well you can be sure if my mother ever pushed me to do an acting gig, I’ll mention your name, might get you a part that way.” She proposed. She was serious about it, but it might not seem that way to him.
“I would love to have enough time to do a hobby and try out acting, but sadly, if I will try out acting it will have to be with this gig, and then I doubt it will be relaxing, if the commercials are anything like movies, and the way I’m asked to behave in them, I know it will be stressful. How could I ever like theatre in those circumstances? But I have no doubt, if you’re into something, you’d want to spend every waking moment doing that thing. I only wish I was into modeling and acting already so I wouldn’t feel so stressed out by it.” She smiled.
She looked around and noticed Finn and turned back to Jasper. “Although you’ve helped me see acting in a new light, and give me hope, I doubt I’d have time to do it as a hobby before I do it professionally, so I don’t think I’ll ever have a chance to enjoy it. Do you mind if I find my friend though?” She knows she doesn’t consider Finn her friend, but she couldn’t as well tell Jasper she wants to go talk to her enemy or her rivals, could she? He’d think she’s weird. But she actually wanted to talk to him face to face about the message. Or, she might bump into somebody who might understand her better than him. She was always done with the fact she couldn’t find a friend that understands her better than her actual rival. She headed his way, but will she reach him or will she not, is neither up to her nor him.

Evelyn’s phone buzzed on her bedside table, interrupting her thoughts of getting ready for the evening. She picked it up and noticed a text from an unknown number.

Party tonight starts at 8pm at the shed right off of school grounds. Bring everyone you know. Drinks provided. Let’s have some fun before classes start in two days. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes: :partying_face: :beers: :tada: :mirror_ball:

Evelyn read the message over a few times, contemplating her options. Someone was throwing a party? A part of her wanted to retreat and hide from the limelight, while another part wanted to go out and not let anyone dictate her happiness. Tonight felt like one of those defining moments. Should she stay in her comfort zone or take a small step towards reclaiming her confidence? After a brief moment of hesitation, Evelyn made up her mind. It was time to take a step, no matter how small, towards getting back into her old self.

As she rummaged through her wardrobe, Evelyn thought about Liv. They had been so close so fast during freshman year, sharing secrets and dreams. The betrayal she felt when Liv had exposed her sexuality to the school was something Evelyn couldn’t comprehend. Liv had always seemed understanding and accepting, so Evelyn couldn’t fathom why she would betray her in such a public manner. Slipping into a black floral tank top crop top, paired with baggy ripped jeans and her trusty Air Force Ones, Evelyn admired herself in the mirror.


As she made her way to the party, Evelyn’s mind wandered back to Liv. She missed their friendship, but she couldn’t forget the pain that had been caused. She wondered if she would ever understand Liv’s motivations for exposing her, but she realized dwelling on it wouldn’t change the past. Evelyn felt nerves bubble up inside her. The loud music and vibrant atmosphere overwhelmed her senses. But as she caught glimpses of familiar face, she felt a sense of belonging that she hadn’t felt in a while. She knew she would never go up to Finn, but seeing him was enough to ground her.


Evelyn didn’t particularly enjoy alcohol, though she found herself holding a beer can in her hand. The faint aroma of the bitter drink tickled her nose, as she foolishly looked for a bottle opener. Why would anyone think to bring a bottle open for drinks? Someone probably stole it, she rolled her eyes. Gripping the beer can firmly, she applied pressure with her thumb and index finger, using her strength to pop the top open effortlessly. Taking a sip, Eve couldn’t help but cringe at the taste of the alcohol, reaffirming her preference for non-alcoholic beverages.

Evelyn found herself inadvertently drifting towards her brother in the crowded party, unable to resist the pull of their familiar connection. Their parents had already told Eve to not associate with him for the time being due to a recent rumors, but Evelyn couldn’t help but yearn for her brother’s presence amidst the chaos of the party. Lost in her thoughts, she suddenly felt someone jostle her from behind. Before she could regain her balance, she accidentally collided with a girl standing nearby who had some remarkably nice hair.

“Oh, sorry,” she said, turning to face the girl head on.

Hope laid her head on the bar, defeated. “Right, handsome. That’s the word. I knew that.” Her cheeks were a deep red from embarrassment, she almost didn’t want to look up again. But she realized it would be rude to speak to him lying down.

After a moment, she sat up, back straight. When he mentioned forgetting his sport, Hope replied “I’m sorry. I can promise you I won’t forget again!”

As he called her secret “not shocking” (because it really wasn’t), she paused. He seemed unconvinced. “What kind of secret do you want to know?” she asked, figuring it’d be easier and faster. “Tell me something about you as an example.” After all, she had to learn more about him if she were to manipulate him easier. Forgetting about him playing baseball was a mistake, she couldn’t slip up again.

And then she received the question she had to answer countless of times in her life: “Why are you so nervous?”

Hope sighed, looking down at her hands fiddling with her bag. “I, uh… I’ve always been shy.” No matter how many years it’s been, she couldn’t just get over it like she hoped she would. No amount of practice or confidence boosting helped, she was a lost cause most of the time. But despite that, she knew she had to push herself out of her comfort zone. Otherwise she wouldn’t have any progress. “I really am trying, so thanks for being patient,” she smiled at him.

Jasper felt quite flattered when she said she would mention his name on an acting gig, but replied with a touch of humour, “Hey, if you ever decide to dive into acting, I’d be chuffed to share the stage with you. if dropping my name gets me a part, I’m all for it!” He said with a chuckle, not taking himself and his own words too seriously. She then talked more about acting and how she would have to do it under the stress of the gig, to which Jasper replied understanding yet with a casualness, “I get the stress of it all. Acting gigs, theatre, commercials - it can be a wild ride. It’s part of the gig, but the thrill of it, the magic when the curtain rises or the camera starts rolling, makes it worthwhile.” She then moved on to talk about being passionate about something and finding a hobby, something Jasper certainly felt about his theatre journey, he said, “Take your time, find what you love, even if it’s through a professional setting.” When she asked if she could go meet a friend, Jasper glanced around the party, and suddenly a face stood out to him, Brex. While Jasper had initially be somewhat disappointed Shiloh wanted to move on, he was more than excited about possibly talking to Brex again, he had really enjoyed their meeting and music session earlier on the day, and couldn’t wait to talk to him again and was glad he had the chance to hand him something back, “And sure thing, go find your friend! But before you go, have my number, if you ever need a chat or some acting wisdom.” He gave her his phone number and they separated ways.

Jasper walked over to where he saw Brex talking to Madi, he didn’t quite want to interrupt their conversation, but at the same time that’s exactly what he wanted. He waited until there was a break in their conversation, a moment of silence where he could insert himself. He hadn’t meant to eavesdrop at all, but he was just in earshot of them to pick up on some things Madi said about asking personal questions, that peaked Jasper’s interest. Had Brex shared a similar type of intens and personal conversation with this girl, or had she been apologising for that because he hadn’t actually answered those more personal questions, he hadn’t quite enough context to know. He then wondered, why does it even matter? It shouldn’t right? Truthfully however, the conversation Jasper had with Brex was one of the most special conversations he had had in a while with anyone, them being so open and vulnerable with each other yet with a significant amount of banter mixed in, it had meant a lot to Jasper. He couldn’t help but, well, wonder if he perhaps had overvalued the conversation they had earlier on the day?

At that moment however, Jasper found a right moment step in. Mostly as he didn’t quite know Madi and was more comfortable just with Brex, he asked, “Hey Madi, mind if I steal Brex from you? Need to hand him something.” Then when Madi had left, he got out Brex’s notebook, right before the party, he had run in the music room as he realised he had forgotten to reset the drums to their original position, something that was policy for using the music room. As he had entered however, he had found a notebook, one he had realised was Brex’s, he picked it up and decided to bring it with him to the party. “I found this in the music room and figured you might need it.” He handed the notebook to Brex with both hands, being respectful of the notebook, after which he shifted his posture to be casual and relaxed, leaning mostly on one foot however, “Didn’t want you to lose your musical genius notes. Hope the jam session inspired some new creations.” Jasper maintained eye contact with Brex as he spoke and gave a slight smile as he said, “I really had a blast jamming out with you!”

“Right, safety first!” Cal was so reckless, they’d forgotten that was a saying. But it was nice to hear someone worry about them for once. They were too used to being the “mom” of their friend groups, it was a refreshing change. “Anyways, I’m up for signing up tonight. It’s a deal!” When Aria talked about working together for inclusivity, Cal grinned. “Advocating for change in sports… That’s not something I thought about. You’re right!”

Aria put a supportive hand on their shoulder, understanding their situation. “Well it’s not easy, but it’s going fine for now. I mean, I met you and I kinda have more freedom.” Cal shrugged. They couldn’t find a lot of positive sides to their situation, but they tried. Hearing the reason Aria was at the boarding school, they smiled. They were happy she got something so positive in her life. “I’m glad you made it! Those are awesome accomplishments, you deserve it!”

While working on their project, Aria agreed with their idea. “Yes! Later I’ll show you some movies we can start with, since you’re the one looking for articles and stuff.” Aria shared her perspective on their approach and Cal nodded in agreement. “Deal! Let’s go!”

As Aria took out her laptop and began her work, Calyso took their phone and sat next to her. They sank into the seat and looked over at her screen, observing what she was doing. “I only have my phone with me, but it should be enough. I have internet too.” In the meantime, Cal opened a browser on their phone, preparing to start. They could feel their excitement growing as they began, anticipating the work ahead of them. It was strange, to be so enthusiastic about doing research out of everything. But it appeared so easy when it came to a topic they were passionate about.

Lorenzo couldn’t help but laugh when Hope laid her head down in embarrassment. He then stopped himself quickly. “hey, it’s okay. No reason to be embarrassed.” He tried to reassure her. She then went on to say about my sport. “You probably will forget again, but hey it’s all good. I mean after all you are a girl.” He chuckled. Lorenzo heard her ask “What kind of secret do you want to know?” He smirked and looked at her in the eyes [color=teal] “Something nobody in this world knows. Your deepest darkest secret. Let me get into your mind for a minute. Let me learn what makes you tick.”

[/color] He smiled then she said “Tell me something about you as an example.” He thought for a minute. a long heard minute. Something nobody knows… “Well honestly…” He looked around and saw Chloe. His eyes lit up when he spotted her talking to Adrian at the other end of the bar. he took a deep breath and he focused back on Hope. “I think I… I might be… still in love with my first love.” That was something he never told anyone. Not even Adrian. He had thought he was over her.

However her showing up here. Seeing her again and knowing they would be spending time together. The feelings came rushing back like a tsunami. He shook it off and then made himself another shot. He just wanted to forget her. Maybe if he met someone new it would change things. He got lost in his thoughts Is it possible I’m in love with her? Is it possible to meet someone better than her? Why is she on my mind? He took another deep breath and another two shots. He sighed and then got thrown into a memory.

It was right before his freshman year here. It was the end of eighth grade. He got shipped to his grandparents house like every summer. He was so happy because he could see his girlfriend Chloe. He got there and then found out that he wouldn’t be there long. In fact they were actually leaving few days later. So he spent those few days packing and helping his grandparents pack. His grandparents had informed him that they were going meet his mom and dad in Singapore. He was devastated by this. “What about Chloe abuela and abuelo?” He had asked and they said well you can video call her. He was a t a lost to be honest. He didn’t want to spend the whole summer away from his girlfriend when the summers were all they really had. He didn’t even get to kiss Chloe bye.

He was lost in his memory thinking of Chloe’s sad look the day they said bye. He really did love her more than anything at that time. He almost had tears in his eyes thinking about this sad moment. HE shook it out his head and downed another shot. "So what about your secret? Tell me something DEEP and BIG ,’ He smiled at her hoping she didn’t notice all his facial expression changes from the memory.
