Victoria woke at the streams of daylight that streamed through the blinds. It was a Sunday, one of her least favourite days of the week, mostly because she never seemed to find something to do. It was 9:30ish, a late time to wake up for her. She was a light sleeper, and she usually woke up around 7:00 so she could start the day off fresh.
She stretched out of bed, slipping on her Homer Simpson slippers. She approached her mirror, blinking her eyes a few times at the horrid mess that she saw infront of her. Heavy eyes and messy hair, with Patrick Star PJs. (She was always one for cartoons.) She went into the bathroom and entered the shower.
She had just about finished her hair, large loose curls that bounced close to her shoulders. She was dressed in a whitish sweater with large buttons and reached down to above her knees. It almost looked like a thin fabric version of a robe, and was one of her favourite things to wear in the winter. She wore dark blue boyfriend jeans that were tucked into her grey Uggs.
She finished her makeup, and decided she was ready for her day. Sadly, she had nothing to do on this fine Winter's day, she realized, not even plans with her friends. She crossed to her night table, where her phone and iPod sat. She plugged her iPod into her iHome, turning on Bigger by Josh Goode. It wasn't her favourite song by him, but she liked the vibe to it. Josh Goode wasn't a very popular singer yet, not many people knew about him. But she had heard him at Homecoming and soon became addicted to his songs.
She picked up her phone, hoping she would have some new messages from her friends to hang out. She flipped it open and was surprised when a gum wrapper fell out. She brightened at the sight of it. She had almost forgotten about Mr. No Name, and almost did a little dance because she figured out something to do today. She dialed the number, waiting as the ringtone played... |

  Josh could hear his cell phone vibrate on the side table that lay to the right of his bead. He ignored it for a moment, staring off at the ceiling like he had for the past six or so hours. He felt horrible about yesterday, the whole ordeal with Taylor and meeting the girl he now knew as Victoria. Things had gone from bad to worse in those few minutes that at the time he wished with every bone in his body he could take back. But now after thought, he realized that it was bound to happen sooner or later, and that not even he could have done much about it.
He was then jerked back to reality as it buzzed more loudly than before, and he tore his gaze from the ceiling over to the platinum voyager that vibrated all around as if trying to tell him something urgent. With a sigh and roll of his eyes, Josh reached for the cell phone. Not looking at the number, he pressed the talk button, and managed a "Hello?"[/color] To tell you the truth, he wasn't really to interested as he stared at the ceiling again, the blank color over taking his emotion. His heart ached, and he just honestly wanted to lay there and think. Hopefully for the time being Taylor would find someone to occupy her time, someone she enjoyed and really liked to be around. And hey, if she fell in love, he was willing to let her go for that reason alone. Josh felt that Taylor didn't fully understand how he felt. He felt that she was too heartbroken that day to really even listen to what he was saying, let alone understand it... He gave up with a silent shrug, and decided that things would work out in the end, they always do right? [/size][/center] Words: 307 Music Playing: None Tagged: Marie<3Claire!

Victoria waited for a few moments as it rang, wondering if he was going to even pick up the phone. She soon heard his voice, monotone and gloomy, on the other line. She could tell he wasn't in the mood for talking, and regret pricked up her spine. Getting ready had taken a while, so it was 10:53 at this point. He should have been up by now at least.
Hey, uh, it's Victoria... From yesterday at the mall if you don't remember... She hoped he remembered her at the very least. At the thought of the day before she remembered what had happened between him and the other girl, and realization hit her. What ever had happened, he probably didn't want to talk to anyone, probably trying to figure things out.
When he didn't answer right away, Victoria turned off her music and stared at her toes. I mean like if right now isn't a good time I can call back later, or if I woke you up or something... Sorry... She waited for a response, looking up at her ceiling with a inaudible sigh. |

Josh felt his stomach float as he hear her voice, and he felt a smile cross his face. He started to say something after a moment of silence, but then stopped as she continued to say something. She was sorry? What for! He felt his smile widen as he laughed slightly, but understood where she was coming from. He'd been playing doom and gloom for too long now. Things would or wouldn't work out with Taylor, and things just needed to fall into place simply. "Hey. And, now's fine... Just busy is all... So uh, whats up?" he asked, managing to heave himself from his bed and into the kitchen.
Of course, there was Hayden fooling around and actually trying to cook as she watched some show on how to do so. He and Hayden were cousins, her mom being his dad's sister, so therefore they didn't have the same last name anyhow. He kept the phone to his ear as he rolled his eyes at Hayden, and she rolled her eyes back with as she stuck out her tongue jokingly. He smiled back, and walked through the kitchen and into the family room to fall onto a couch and turn on the Tv. He listened to Victoria as he flipped through the channels, not going to get dressed or anything. He'd admit he wasn't a morning person, and he'd probably stay in what he slept in till at least noon.
Josh sighed silently, settling for the Simpson's while throwing the remote back on a table that sat next to the couch. Hayden's papion jumped up on the couch next to him, and he rolled his eyes. He wasn't really one for Hayden's annoying small dog, but it's not like he could do anything about it. Words: 295 Music Playing: None Tagged: Marie<3Claire! Notes: (Note for me: 00B2EE) |

Victoria took a silent breath of relief when he answered her, sounding somewhat 'happier' if u could say that. She was glad he wanted to talk to her, for all she knew anyways. She thought she heard some pots or pans clanging in the background, and she imagined him walking by his kitchen of some sort. At least she hadn't woken him up and he was already out of bed.
What's up? Hm, what was up? What had she called for anyway? Just to hear his voice? Oh, well I was just wondering if you wanted to go somewhere or hang out or something today... 'Cause I'm really bored. She smiled at her excuse, which was somewhat true.
An awkward silence that seemed to last forever but was really a moment or two passed by. She tried to think of things that could possibly distract her while she waited for an answer, until she heard The Simpsons theme play through the speakers of her phone. Is that Homer Simpson I hear? She asked, laughing at herself yet glad she had something to fill in the empty space of their conversation.

Josh was finding himself dumbfoundingly mesmerized in the cartoon as they all ran about the cartoon. He was jerked from his trance as he heard Victoria ask him a question, more like on a date in his opinion, which of course he wanted to! It's not like he was all that crazy about watching this cartoon anyway...
Just as he was about to reply, he herd her ask if she heard homer Simpson, and a smile flashed across his face. "Well of course it is. What better to watch in the morning than Homer Simpson!" he joked with an amused laugh afterwords. "And, yeah, hanging out with you can't be the worst thing I've ever had to do," Josh teased with another laugh as he spoke with sarcasm on the whole having to hang with her thing. "But uh, yeah, that'd be cool. Any ideas?" he asked, as he clicked the info button on the remote. This brought up a little information bar which showed the time, which was really what he was after...
'9:30!?! This chick's crazy!' he thought to himself somewhat sarcastically as he shut off the TV, and headed back up to his room. He scanned his closet, as Victoria replied, looking for something to throw on carelessly. That was just how he worked, but it brought a smile to his face none the less...

Victoria smiled. It was good to know he liked her favourite show, at least they had something in common! His sarcastic attitude towards the "date" thing somewhat faltered her, but she decided she could handle it. At least he didn't actually say he didn't want to.
She tried to think of a place to go, which she probably should have done earlier. She always came unprepared, just something that happened in the family line. Uh, well there's the beach or a movie... Or we could just like hang out around Blackthorne or something...
That was when she let it slip, and she realized the moment she said it she didn't even know if he went there too. She wanted to punch herself in the face for how careless she had been, as if she didn't even care if their completely secret life was shared to people. She crossed her fingers and bit her lip, hoping he would go there too or already happen to know about it or something...
OOC: srry, really short post... i couldn't think of anything

"You know, you shouldn't go blurting things like that out. You might get in trouble, but your secrets safe with me," Josh joked with a slight laugh after he had said so. "But uh, yeah, whatever you wanna do. I'm cool with anything really..." he replied, picking out some random T-shirt and some random jeans as he managed to put them on with the phone still pressed against his ear.
So, she went to blackthorne... He wondered what this Victoria must be in order to attend there, but as soon as the thought had come it vanished. It didn't really matter, and they'd have plenty of time to talk later. As soon as he had gotten dressed he paused, looking down at his clothes with an inaudible sigh. Great, so if she said she wanted to go to the beach or something, he'd have to change all over again. Shrugging the thought away, he waited for Victoria's reply while laying back on his bed while staring up at the ceiling... Words: 170 Music Playing: None Tagged: Marie<3Claire! Notes: (Note for me: 00B2EE) It's fine! lol. and when he was being sarcastic, it was about it being bad he had to go with her. He was joking. lol. AND SORRY! my post is short too...  |

Victoria thought for a few moments, trying to think if she remembered any good movies that were out. There was Sherlock Holmes, the Lovely Bones, a few others that didn't really seem too interesting... Well, I don't think there's any good movies out so unless you can think of one...
If he didn't know of another movie, that was out of the question. She tried to think of other ideas, like the beach of course, or hanging out... Do you like to skate? She asked as she remembered the free skating that they could go to. Other than that she couldn't really think of anything.
She waited for his answer, looking around with little interest at the walls and ceilings and such. She wished the dorms were more decorative, plain white walls just made everything seem boring. She played with her ipod as she waited, scrolling through the songs and playing one of her favourite apps, Bounce Down.
OOC: its fine, and this one is short again cuz i couldn't think of anything plus i jsut like went on and on about random stuff so... ya lol

Josh thought if there were any really good movies that were suppose to be out. The Avatar came to his mind, but it didn't really seem like his kind of movie. Sherlock Holmes looked like it was suppose to be good, but at the same time boring. By the previews he guessed it was more about the graphics and everything as opposed to the movie itself. Alright, so movies were really not a choice here...
When Victoria mentioned skating, Josh felt a definite yes come to mind. He was a hockey player, and overall winter sports person so skating sounded like a good idea to him! "Yeah, I love to skate. On the varsity hockey team, so I hope I like it," he replied with a slight laugh. He figured that was what they were going to do, just by the boredom he picked up on in her tone. She obviously just wanted and go do something, not just sit around and decide, so skating it was in his mind.
Josh made his way to the garage, and he quickly picked up his hockey skates, sticking them in the back of his Mercedes. He shut the trunk which made a slight clink sound as he did so. Leaning up against the back of his car while he listened to Victoria's reply. His thoughts wandered as he looked at the disaster the garage really was. Not that Josh really cared, but Hayden hadn't shut up about it for weeks now. It was like she expected him to pick it up or something, and a smile crossed his face as he thought so.
"Oh, and what's your address?" he asked after she had finished talking, hopping in the drivers side of the black car, his finger tapping the enter address button on the installed GPS... Words: 300 Music Playing: None Tagged: Marie<3Claire! Notes: (Note for me: 00B2EE) |

Victoria smiled at his reply, guessing that's what they were going to do. She got off of her bed, taking her ipod with her and slipping back on her Uggs. She went to her closet, where her skates were lying in the corner. Uh, I'm guessing you know where Blackthorne is. I'll be waiting outside the Solar Dorm.
She went to open the door to the hall, then hesitated. Oh, I never got your name... she said with a laugh as she made her way to the exit.
OOC: srrry, again had 2 make this in a rush

Josh smiled, somewhat amused with how he'd forgotten to give to poor girl his name! "Oh, yeah, haha. Sorry, my name's Josh..." he replied, starting the car up by twisting the keys in the ignition. Before you knew it, he was on his way to the academy. Josh and Hayden lived on the lake's beach, so they weren't too far away from the academy, being only about minutes or so...

Victoria put the phone in her pocket with a smile, right adding him as Josh in her contact list. She headed down the stairs and out of the dorm, greeted by the Winter air. She made her way to a bench that faced the parking lot, sitting down and waiting patiently. Her fingernails lightly grazed the blades of her skates as she sat, not being able to help but be excited out of her mind.
OOC: again, i couldn't really think of anything else to say here. lol |

Josh tossed his cell in the drivers side cup holder, focusing where he was going. He reached the gates of Blackthorne after around eight minutes, and he pulled up to a machine. The machine was made for student who lived off campus to swipe a card, so first of all they could get in, and secondly people who didn't belong there couldn't get in. Swiping his card, the gates opened slowly, and Josh drove up the long, winding drive.
After a minute or so, Josh reached the dorms, and almost immediately noticed Victoria. A smile crossed his face, and he pulled up to where she was sitting. His convertible top was closed, since it was cold and everything, so having it down would be, just plainly stupid... Josh quickly puled the gear so that the car parked, and wit that he popped the trunk and opened the drivers side door to meet Victoria.
He walked around the car to where she sat, and held his hand out for her. "May I give you a ride miss?' he asked, rolling his eyes while meaning to be cheesy. He smiled boyishly, and waited for her response, which he figured would be the usual giggle or something of the sort. But who knows, people can surprise you...

Around 10 minutes, give or take a few, went by before Victoria spotted a car start to drive up the winding pathway towards the dorm. She smiled, crossing her legs as it parked in front of her. Josh got out of the car, and she couldn't help feeling struck again by how amazingly good looking he was.
He approached her, holding out his hand and making some cheesy comment. Wow, you're just a little gentleman aren't you? She said with a smile as she took his hand, letting him pull her to her feet. The more up close he was, the more blown away she felt. She picked up her skates with her open hand, realizing she hadn't let go of his yet...
