You got me rocking and a-reeling

My name is Crystal Dalgaard. Daughter of Jenny and Damien Dalgaard. I blow out the candles on September 17th and am a Libra. I'm a Sophomore at Constance Billard School for Girls and have an entire wardrobe full of expensive clothes I'll probably never wear.

If we want to make it work, maybe the only change is getting a brand new storyline, characters.. everything.

If that's the case, I shotgun the Dianna Agron FC... just sayin' ;)

Cooling off || Steph&Crystal

A day after her morning talk with Michael, Stephanie was just running frantically around the house. That and the pressure of auditioning for another Broadway production got her really stressed out. So when Crystal asked her to spend some family time ice skating. She just couldn’t say no. She changed to a pair of black leggings and a black, long-sleeved top. She wore her red Tory Burch flats, got her phone and keys, and headed out to the Dalgaards’.

Once there, Steph giddily ran towards the door and knocked. “Cryyyys!” she chimed. “Hurry up and let’s go!” She chuckled as her cousin opened the door. “My skates have been itching since the last time I’ve used it!” she joked, snorting out loud.

Crystal laughed at the sound of her cousin arriving at her home and she raced down the stairs, pulling on a dark blue cardigan as she went. Her bag was thrown over her shoulder and in it were the skates Steph had bought her the last time they'd been ice skating. She hadn't been for a while and had probably fallen out of practice, but she couldn't care less. Crystal just needed to get out and so something fun. Something that she knew would steer her thoughts away from the whole Steven and Michael mess.

Crys swung the door open and pulled Stephanie into a hug. Both of them had been going through a prettty rough time lately and a break from all the Upper East Side drama was exactly what they needed. "Are you driving?" Crystal asked after she'd pulled away from the hug, nodding towards the car that was parked in her driveway.

S: Yes, it has to go on my way, and I know he would do whatever you tell him to.

C: God, you are so conceited! I'm not going to tell him to stay away from you. He can do whatever he wants.

S: Control Michael, I don't wanna see him around.

C: First of all, Michael's not my boyfriend. And second of all, even if he was I'd never "control" him. Build a bridge and get over it. Not everything always has to go your way.

Mike pulled away from her ‘Crys I’m…I’m so sorry…’ he stuttered and looked away. ‘I don’t think she want it anyway’ he smirked and approached the window ‘I did it again, did I? Hurt you…’ He looked at her when she took one of guitars. He had this weird déjà vu feeling. They were in this before. And it’s like everything came back. He felt guilty. ‘Crystal…’ he sat next to her ’ don’t even know what to tell you…I caused so much damage in your life…fuck in our lifes. It would be so much easier if I stayed out of this shit…’ he sighed and looked at her. Mike wondered if she would ever be able to forgive him all this mess.

[crystaldalgaard-blog]

"Michael, don't be ridiculous," she sighed, softly strumming the guitar. "Look, I think Steph really likes you and what happened between me and Steven wasn't your fault. He just..." she frowned and stared at her feet. "It wasn't your fault." She didn't want to go into details about the fight between her and Steven. It wasn't something she really wanted to share. "I can still sing at your gig, right? This doesn't... change anything?"

When she ended Mike couldn’t stop wild grin on his face. ‘It was good…like really good’ he said and walked to her. Jared and Sam gave him knowing looks ‘So we’ll see you both tonight, right?’ Jared couldn’t stop his stupid smile ‘we should get going…’ Crys looked a little bit confused. ‘Yeah sure, see you all’ he nodded  his head and before they could wink they were alone. 

‘So…’ he turned his face to her. His brain was working really fast and all he could see was her face. And she was close. And she was too close. His head was screaming at him, yelling to not move, to stay still. But who cares? He placed his hand on her cheek and pulled her closer. He felt her lips and it felt weird. It was nice, sure. But there was something missing. And at that moment he knew exactly what it was. He still remember how it was when he kissed Steph, that spark. The way her lips tasted. And with Crys? It was nice. Nothing more. And it was the first time he knew exactly what he wanted.

[crystaldalgaard-blog]

Michael's lips crushed hers and Crystal was startled slightly, placing her hand on his shoulder to steady herself. His mouth moved against hers gently and she gave a small smile before pulling away and looking into his eyes. She knew that what she saw in his gaze mirrored hers. There had been no spark. No fireworks. Not like the first time they'd kissed, and certainly not like the many kisses she'd shared with Steven. There wasn't that same... ache to have his lips on hers again. She smiled slightly and tucked a loose strand of hair behind her ear. "So... Stephanie, huh?" she said softly. "Be good to her, okay?"

She turned away and began to walk back over to the guitars, lightly running her fingers along each string. There was no need to discuss what had just happened between the two of them. They were on even playing ground now. She'd seen the way Michael and Stephanie acted around each other - even a blind man would be able to sense the tension between the pair. At least now that whatever mess between Crys and Mike had been fixed, Michael could patch things up with her cousin. Unfortunately for Crys, she knew it was too late to mend things with Steven. Nothing she could say or do would heal the mess she had made. Crystal reached forward for the guitar she'd been playing earlier and took a seat, balancing the instrument on her lap as she began to practise her song.

S: Ohmigod. I'm sorry you had to see that. I was drunk last night and he was there to take care of me and.. Okay I should stop talking. Again, I'm sorry for that shameless post..

C: Steph, calm down. Take some deep breaths. And learn to text slower? I can't keep up.

Micheal could swear that Jared and Crys won’t get along. He had no idea why but he had no strength to fight with that. When she picked up guitar he realized how much he missed her like that. Like when she’s doing things she loved. It had to look pretty funny. Crys, that little girl with blue guitar and four guys with all of those instruments and she was leading. She started to singing and he had to forced himself before he bursted in laugh, when he saw Sam and John’s faces. That girl had voice and she looked like doll. He missed her even more than he realize it. Mike started to listen to lyrics and it hit him. Steven made so much damage to her, he hurt her so bad.

[crystaldalgaard-blog]

"Oh, what a shame. What a rainy ending given to a perfect day. Just walk away, no use defending words that you will never say. Now that I'm sitting her thinking it through, I've never been anywhere cold as you..."

The song drew to a close and Crystal gave a small smile as she placed the guitar back on it's stand. When she was singing like that, it made her lose track of the world - nothing else existed except for her and her guitar. It was the only time she truly felt at peace. "What did you think?" she asked, quietly, turning to face Michael.

He was so glad that he was standing next to Jared when Crys mentioned Swift. He kicked his friend before he could even say a word. “You know…you can do it solo…’ he rubbed his neck nervously. It wasn’t exactly what he expected but at that moment he couldn’t care less. ‘So here’s the deal… we talk about it and we think you should sing in the end, you know? Like some kind of surprise or something…’ he smiled at her and they eyes met. And that was it. That was what he was missing. She was standing there, biting her bottom lip and looking at him. 

Michael was glad that no one could know what he was thinking about. He felt that Sam tugged him and laughed when he realize that they were talking to him ‘I’m sorry…I just…yeah, let’s see what you have’ he shook his head and sat behind set. ‘Dude, get your shit together’ Jared hissed in his direction and raised his brow. He was right, if he wanted to make through this he needed to focus.

[crystaldalgaard-blog]

“Great,” she smiled, nervously tucking a strand of golden hair behind her ear. She didn’t like the way the guy who’d introduced himself at Jared was looking at her. His gaze made her feel uncomfortable. “I, um, the song is Cold As You. I know the basic chords to that song if you want me to play it on the guitar…?” Jared gave her a curt nod and she rose to her feet, making her way over to the guitars that lay on the stands. Crys took hold of the blue one and plucked a few strings, tuning it as she saw fit. She gave Michael a small smile before she began to strum the opening tune. “You have a way of coming easily to me. And when you take you take the very best of me. So I start a fight ‘cause I need to feel something. You do what you want ‘cause I’m not what you wanted.”
