CAMELOT

he was charismatic, magnetic, electric and everybody knew it. when he walked in every woman’s head turned, everyone stood up to talk to him. he was like this hybrid,this mix of a man who couldn’t contain himself. i always got the sense that he became torn between being a good person and missing out on all of the opportunities that life could offer a man as magnificent as him

“great!” liv was quick to notice the smile on his face, her own widening just a bit at the sight. she let him lead her, letting out a gigle as she was spun around. as the two made their way to the floor, she looked over a him, shaking her head at the question, “i’m not… sad, maybe just anxious or nervous. it’s really not a big deal, though.”

CONRAD WAS NOT ONE FOR DANCING. he had always been more of a stand at the bar kind of guy, observe the surroundings and let people come to him which they undoubtedly, always did. tonight was just another night of business really. but, dancing with liv was enough to put a brief interruption in the schedule and he didn’t mind one bit. “ anxious, huh ? wanna get off the dance floor ? ”

“always“, jasper responded with a smile at his brother. he couldn’t help but laugh at the comment coming from the other male. ‘dude, that’s a great idea..you want to share with your favorite brother?‘

“ IT’S GONNA FUCKING COST YOU. ” conrad scoffed as he reclined in his seat, a hand ruffling through his hair. “ brother or not, i still have a business to run. ” the trust fund covered everything, no need to do anything if he did not have the desire to. but, conrad’s side hustle was more about power and control than anything.

it wasn’t that liv didn’t like to party, she loved to. she liked to drink, and dance, and have fun. liv glanced at conrad, knowing he was right. just standing here wasn’t going to change her circumstances. her body turned back facing the crowd as she looked out at them. she looked back at the other, nodding her head as a real smile formed on face as she stretched out her hand in front of the two of them, “okay, you’re right… so, come dance with me.”

“ AN OFFER I JUST CAN’T REFUSE. ” he remarked playfully. was that a smile that could be seen on his face ? he took liv’s hand in his and spun her lightly on the spot before leading the way to the dance floor. of all people, it didn’t sit right with him that she seemed to be in a sombre mood. if she was going to get him to dance then he would carry whatever was getting her down. “ now what is a girl as hot as you looking so sad for ? ”

livcxstillo·:

with the fear of being exposed, liv wasn’t exactly in the mood to party. she had quickly found herself by the bar, a glass of whiskey in her hand as she let out a small sigh, turning around and looking out into the crowd of people. if only things were as normal as they appeared. liv downed her drink, turning back to the bartender for a refill, glancing over to the person beside her, “do you think anything will go bad at this one? you know… considering this school’s track record for parties and all.”

@cloverstarters·

CONRAD HAD HIS BACK TO THE BAR, arms splayed along it as he observed the events taking place. girls that couldn’t walk in their heels and guys objectifying said girls was an all too familiar sight to see. was he already kind of over it ? yes. was it definitely too early  crack open the white powder stash in his pocket ? yes. he supposed liv would have to keep him occupied until he just had to give in. “ huh ? ” he questioned, attention elsewhere as his eyes drifted to hers. “ i mean probably, i’m not going to lie. ” he shrugged. “ but liven up, you’re already in a shit mood so stop thinking about it. ”

jasperchadwick·:

‘cheers i’ll drink to that.’, jasper responded, not really talking to anybody in particular as he drank his third bottle of wine. he’d been at the ball for about an hour and he seemed to be only thinking about two things – getting laid and drinking himself into a coma, ‘you look hot as fuck tonight! you want a glass of wine?’ @cloverstarters·

“ CIVILIZED TONIGHT, HUH JASPER ? ” conrad questioned with a raised brow as he slid next to his brother. great, just what he needed. he’d only just gotten here and he could already tell there was a mess he was going to have to deal with later. “ got some of the good stuff for later, since it’s a special occasion. thought i’d open up the stash. ”

brittany pulled a headphone out of her ear, raising an eyebrow at the boy approaching. she looked down at her workout attire as if suddenly her purpose would jump out at him. “going for a run?” she said when it didn’t, her words coming out more as a question than intended. “i know the murders are putting everyone on edge, but last i checked i was still allowed to go out.”

“ DON’T FUCKING LINGER, IT’S CREEPY. ” he remarked with a scoff, heading towards the step of the house without a second thought. conrad was always aware but nowadays he felt like he was on hyper-alert especially since the dumb fucks he lived with were probably the easiest targets or the easiest to pin something on. “ actually ! ” he called out to her, turning around on his position. “ you want me to put you through your paces ? ”

dearestflora·:

—— honestly, flora just wanted to go for a walk, but ended up mainly spending most of her time looking at the flowers around campus. she didn’t even know how much time passed by. however, when she heard a voice seconds later, it made her jump slightly before pursing her lips and turning toward the person. she didn’t realize she was being a bother. “i’m sorry,“ she replied quietly before tilting her head to gesture toward the plants. “i was just looking at the flowers around here. i didn’t think i was being a disturbance, but i don’t mind being elsewhere.”

A LOOK WORTHY OF JIM FROM THE OFFICE spread across conrad’s features as the girl stumbled out an explanation. really, he did not give a single fuck about what she was doing but outside of the beta house -- really ? it wasn’t exactly the quietest place in the world to admire the nature and sing to the birds. it was only the afternoon and still the usual immature shenanigans were going on inside that the rest of greek row could most definitely hear. “ you’re fine, don’t sweat it. ” he replied bluntly. “ imma call you flower girl now. ”

ryankingslcy·:

“well.. the jokes on you–” she mumbled, with a roll of her eyes – it was frustrating how quickly that information had made it from halls of the delta house to conard — it was like he had cameras set up or something.. so weird. “i didn’t even wear a bra today so there’s no way i could have left it behind.” the truth was, she hadn’t even realized his name was troy until he’d just mentioned it.. she was just going to refer to him as delta hockey boy for the rest of her life (and probably still would, despite now knowing his name). “i guess your information was wrong, maybe you should check your sources.” nothing gets past him.. pfft– apparently, not the case.

“ YOUR NOSE IS GROWING, PINOCCHIO. ” conrad remarked, trademark smirk plastered on his face once again. information and secrets seemed to just attract him when 95% of the time he was never in search of them in the first place. sure, the odd time when a little blackmail was necessary then his plethora of knowledge was more than useful. but, half the time he felt he was the secret keeper for people he had no interest in. “ your secret is safe with me. ” he promised her, a nonchalant shrug gracing his stance almost signalling that he brushed off her secret little rendezvous physically and theoretically. “ but i don’t like liars so don’t lie to yourself or me, it’ll only get your fingers burnt. ”

anniewats·:

we don’t bite. “too bad,” the girl joked under her breath and she turned over her shoulder and head towards the door. really, when the opportunity presented itself, she just couldn’t help it. entering the house from behind the boy, annie wracked her brain for a name, a time they’d crossed paths before. but most of her memories involving greek members she wasn’t particularly close with were blurry and out of focus. thanks, alcohol. “thanks, uh…? she settled on beginning to ask, eyes scanning the living room before landing back on him.

CONRAD THREW HER a light smirk over his shoulder. everyone knew that those beta boys most definitely did bite and they were the worst of them all. in certain aspects, he felt so opposite from his brothers. he was constantly ten steps ahead of them all, pragmatic, sensible and the absolute ultimate person to call in a crisis. however, he embodied so many traits that they were all known for and he was the best dealer on campus. that was always a winner. “ conrad. ” he replied to her as he entered the kitchen, throwing his lacrosse stick and bag onto the floor. “ forgive me but you look like just about every other blonde thats walked in and out of these doors. ”

niafm·:

nia could easily say she hated conrad’s stupid face and his cocky know it all attitude, if anyone knew it all. it’d be her and she’d be dead before she let him think otherwise. upon his words she simply cocked her head offering him a very smug smile. “ you know, if i had to murder anyone in broad daylight, it’d be you, conny. ” 

“ DAMN, YOU’RE BREAKING MY HEART. ” conrad replied as he placed his hand to his heart, pursing his lips in a sarcastic pout. he was pretty sure he would never get tired of his games with nia, if there was anyone he could go toe to toe with for eternity then it would be her. “ you’d be doing me a favor really and the thought of you throwing me a bone just seems so wrong. ”

livcxstillo·:

with everyone on greek row being so close together, it wasn’t surprising for people’s mail to get mixed up. most of the time, boxes of the other girls and guy’s sat in the kappa house. no one wanted to take them, no one except for liv, of course. she was always happy to help out, which is why she found herself at her last stop of the day: the beta house. she walked towards the house with two boxes in her arms, stopping right outside for a minute to stretch her arms. she turned around, hearing someone’s voice. liv shot conrad a warm smile, walking towards him with her heels clacking on the floor, “hi! some of the beta’s boys mail got dropped off at our house and i wanted to return them!”

“ WELL AREN’T YOU JUST A SAINT. ” conrad replied sarcastically, a light smirk gracing over his features. he immediately took the boxes out of her hand, and placed them on the step beside them, the beta boys would have to wait just a few more moments for the latest batch of protein powder. “ you good ? ” he asked curiously, see he could be nice sometimes. liv was always such an anomaly for him. they were the definition of polar opposites in many aspects, one of their only commonalities being their good looks. he often felt like she had just walked right out of a teen high school movie and even someone like conrad who was so pragmatic and realistic, found that almost irresistible.

niafm·:

nia just sighed upon being addressed by some beta guy probably, she didn’t know and she didn’t care, she was here for two reasons only. one, pick up one of her sisters, she refused to walk alone even if it was the middle of the day and two, get the hell out of there. the only times she set foot in that house were for parties and even then it wasn’t per say without caution. “ none of your business. ” she stated, before raising a brow. “ why ? ”

OH HERE WE FUCKING GO was the immediate thought that entered his head. just what he needed, an interaction with nia that neither could escape because they both had this incessant need to win. he found her a challenge and for someone that had never been challenged in their life it was a new experience for him. did he like it ? well, she was almost too hot to handle. “ murderer on the loose and you’re at the top of my fucking list. ”

[cxncad]

anniewats·:

“your house?” annie repeated from her spot on the stairs, chin tilting upwards and eyes landing on the boy. it took her a second to connect the dots—he was in beta. and just as much as she didn’t recognize him, he didn’t recognize her. a funny thought, considering she was here often enough, looking for or hanging around garrett and, at one point, matias and max. “just waiting on a friend,” she ended up answering casually, head briefly turning towards the door. how taken off guard would this guy have been had he found her walking through the living room? the kitchen?

“ I LIVE HERE, DON’T I ? ” he replied, looking down toward the blonde. what could be mistaken for checking her out was simply a gaze toward who the fuck was this girl ? one word that could be used to describe conrad was elusive. perhaps it was best that way, for some peopke he could be their saving grace and for others he was their biggest nightmare. if he was sought out then someone must be in some deep shit. “ just come in, we don’t bite. ” conrad shrugged, walking up the steps and not checking if the blonde was following him.

ryankingslcy·:

“your house?” ry turned on her heels, a groan escaping from her lips as she came face to face with conrad – the last thing she needed or wanted in that moment was her very own, personalized dosage of fuck boy: frat boy edition. “i wasn’t aware you owned the delta house, conrad.. someone should tell the universe, i think they’re as in the dark as i was until you so very graciously made me aware.” the brunette’s gaze dropped back to the ground, frantically searching – as she as doing before he’d interrupted her. she’d been attempting to make a quick exit, avoid any awkward run ins after an afternoon hook up with some delta hockey plater, when she dropped her bracelet, losing sight of where it’d fallen. 

“ MY HOUSE. ” he repeated with a light smirk. his height and strong stature lingering on the steps toward the house. he couldn’t help but feel a sense of pleasure at seeing ryan when she so obviously did not want to see him. it was almost an unwritten rule that seeing conrad when you did not want to be seen was the absolute most dangerous territory you could enter. he ignored her comments with a light laugh, not a cruel one but perhaps a knowing one. “ word is that you just came out of troys room and i don’t think your bra was the only thing you left behind. ” he spoke with a raised brow, in a lightly hushed tone as to respect her privacy. “ you should know by now, nothing gets past me in this place. ”
