right hang girl: alaras person, her ride or die, the one person outside of her family who really knows her. just as she knows them insanely well too. they first met freshman year, and became best friends instantly. over time, the two grew closer and soon enough called each other their person.
i won't say i'm in love: falling in love again was something she never wanted to do. not when her plate was alrady full. from classes, to taking care of her daughter. enter your muse, they met a year ago, before her daughter came back to her, and over time have grown close. it was something that alara never expected. and now? shes trying to push aside those feelings. but she knows that she can't do that forever.
she's so gone: once upon a time they dated. things went great until they changed. and alara noticed it. after the break up, she moved on, and changed. she's no longer the woman they remembered. shes stronger now. more independent too.
that don't impress me much: she never intended to run into them. hell, she had done her best to not do that. but sadly that happened, and ever since, they have done their best to impress her. but nothing they do will ever her impress her. alara is a hard person to impress, and she would have thought by now they would have realized that.
for good: theres always one person that comes into someons life and changes it for the better. that would be this person. them meeting and become close friends was unexpected. but over time, she had come to accept that them meeting was fate.
what is this feeling?: from the start, they never liked each other. neither could pinpoint why. but they absolutely loath each other for some unseen reason. maybe they'll overcome that and try to get along. maybe they wont. but what can be seen by just about everyone is how much they loath each other.

BLURB:
november 5th at noon, alara yilmaz was born. born into a family made of old money, she had a life not many would dream of. growing up though, alara never asked for much. she was content with the things she did have. to her, flashing off expensive things wasn't her. when it came to school, she always made sure to stay on top of her school work. never the one to fall behind. even if there was a family emergency. she made sure to stay on top everything. that was just how she was. everything came to a head right before college. a few weeks before starting, she fell ill. after going to the doctors, she found out that she was pregnant. being too young at the time, she made the decision to give the child up after it was born.
deferring her first year there, she stayed at home. five months later, on new years day, her child was born. a baby girl that she named esmeray. the couple who would adopt her had been there as well. in the end, they agreed on an open adoption. giving alara the right to see her daughter when she had the time. once she started at MSU, that time wasn't much. over time though as she worked on managing her classes, she made time to see the girl she gave birth too. everything changed her for once again before starting her final year at MSU. when the adopted parents of her daughter were killed in a car crash. with them naming alara as esmerays guardian if anything should happen to them. to her, that meant changing her life around, which she did. with her parents and siblings also stepping into help too, it made things easy for her. now? with her daughter by her side, and alara herself starting her final year, she just wants to make it through.
OTHER FACTS…
- she has a total of six siblings, three brothers and three sisters. all together, alara included, there's seven of them.
she lives in her own house off campus. the place is spacious enough for her and her daughter.
her ex ( who is her daughters father ) does know about esmeray. ever since she came back to alaras side, he's been helping her whenever he can.
she's been in two other relationships since then. one was more of a summer fling, the other one was during her second year at MSU
she comes from a family of old money. but don't expect her to flaunt that. that's not her. she hates flaunting that.
the cool air whipped around as she sat there on the bench. book in hand with her coffee cup on the bench next to her. most of the time, joslyn would have been at home on the couch, but today was a nice day for once. the weather in general was nice despite it being cooler out. "i'm getting the feeling that it could snow this weekend." she wasn't a meteorologist. but based on past years, it was almost always around this time that they got their first snowfall. closing her book, she looked over at the other. "i'm not a weather person though so don't quote me on that."
a small , quiet smile pulls lips upward as fingers stir spoon through ceramic mug . " you know when i asked what was on your mind , frey , the tornado habits of east lansing was not what i expected to hear . " she's teasing , mug lifted and raised to painted lips .
"sorry. you know me though. tornado facts literally run through my mind." she pointed out. weather facts in general if she was being more honest. she could easily talk someones ear off about all of the information she knew too. but almost anyone who knew her knew that. she was a chatter box once she got going.
" i'm sorry , i'm sorry , you had me at beer cheesecake . " because typical twenty something male , his immediate response was to latch on to the potential for a party . and beer cheesecake sounded right up his alley . " babes , how do you expect me to choose , you're wicked at this , they're all fucking good and i haven't even tried it . "
"yes, beer cheesecake. my first time making it." she was sure it turned out good. she followed the recipe correctly too. "if you end up liking it, i'll make a full one tomorrow for you and grier." it was one she had made just for fun. not once did she think anyone would really like it. grabbing a fork out of the drawer, she handed it to him before leaning against the counter. "if you're hungry for anything else after trying them, just let me know."
after his last failed attempt of something somewhat serious, it put walls up, guarding him from admitting the calm faye's presence brought. avoidant of the fact that he craved her attention, and withheld himself from communicating anytime something happened that she'd think was funny or entertaining. the harsh reality was such: she was a good person, and he was simply too scared to ruin that. “ might come as a shock, but i have no idea what either of those movies are. ” he chuckles, reaching to grasp hold of a few kernals.
a part of her wanted to tell him how she felt. but yet, why would he like someone like her? she wasn't as pretty as other females on campus. nor was she that amazing. hell, why would anyone like her for that matter? that had been a part of the reason why she kept her feelings to herself. it was better that way, right? "you don't?" she asked, raising an eyebrow as she looked over at him. "pretty in pink is apart of the brat pack movies." cult classic movies to be more exact. "well i do believe we've just found the movies to watch tonight. pretty in pink first, followed by the breakfast club."
open to: cain ( @petalsonice )
location: outside of faye's house, a week after the halloween party.
with halloween done, it meant that faye could finally get her christmas stuff out. some may have thought it was too early, but not for her. not when christmas time brought her joy. looking up from the box of outdoor decorations she was going through, she raised an eyebrow when she saw cain walking up. "didn't know you were stopping by." had he texted her and she just missed it? most of the time, she would have known before hand if someone was going to come over. but other times, some people did love to surprise her.
open to: winnie ( @petalsonice )location: freyas house
pizza box on the counter with the plates beside it, she opened up the box before sliding it over to winnie. "grab what you want. I'll go pick out the movie for tonight." it wasn't all the time that she used the home movie theater they had there in the basement. if she did? it was almost always with a group of friends. but she was more than fine with using it to watch a movie for the two of them. pulling her phone out, she scrolled through the collection of digital movies they had. "i'm thinking either the princess diaries, twister or wicked."
open to: maddie ( @petalsonice )location: the quad coffeehouse
"i really do hate projects sometimes." she muttered as she shut her laptop. especially group projects. how she got stuck with a group of people who were being beyond lazy is beyond her. "at this point, i'm almost tempted to ask my professor if i can just do this one solo." she was beyond frustrated at this point. no word back from any of the people who were in her group as well. what was the point of group projects if only one person was doing all the work. "enough of me complaining though. what's been going on with you?"
🏒 : calloused palm traces slow paths through the fine coat of canine resting heavily in blond's lap as he sinks back into cushions of old friend's couch, free hand then lifting instinctively to grasp proffered mug. “ you don't have to sell me on your hot chocolate, i've been ruined for anything else since the first time you made it for me. ” porcelain is brought to lips, pulling away with a satisfied hum while simultaneously nodding in agreeance to her proposition. “ shit, yeah, we're way overdue. one condition, though .. no more trash rom - coms. if i have to watch two morons get all sappy again, i'll lose it. horror movie or i'm out. ”
hearing his comment, she couldn't help but to let out a small laugh. " once you try real hot chocolate, it's hard to even think about going back to the powdered version." the powdered version was dull and just over all plain. but the real hot chocolate? it was delicious and rich. there was only a few people in her life outside of her family who she made it for. with grier and gianna being one of those few. "oh come on, i was going to suggest the princess diaries 2." she said jokingly. the past few movie nights, it had been faye and gianna who had picked out the movies. "not even the fast and the furious?"
he'd become comfortable in the specific spot on faye's couch, which he knew was dangerous territory. longing for the woman was one thing, it was something he could do from afar. however, the closer they got, the heavier the reality hung between them and enzo's inability to become available emotionally stunted most development. “ nah, i kept going back to the usual ones and doubt you want to watch my cousin vinny for the fourth time. ” he muses with a shrug, holding out the remote with casualness. “ i think i can handle a romcom, monty. ”
her heart raced slightly as she sat beside him. as of late, she had come to terms with her feelings for him. but it made her wonder if he felt the same. did he like her as well? it was that, that stopped her from even wanting to confess her feelings. what if he didn't like her back? those thoughts ran through her mind as she listened to him speak. "yeah i think a fourth time might be a bit to much." three times was more than enough for a movie. "i'm thinking either pretty in pink or my big fat greek wedding." two of her favorite movies of all time as well.

location: the midnight blue
it was busy there. unusually busy. maybe joslyn getting there at the perfect time was a good thing. if she had waited any longer, she just knew she would be left waiting for a booth to open. menu in hand, she looked down at it for a moment before looking up, seeing the other looking around, she raised an eyebrow. "you can sit here with me if you want. i don't mind." she was one to never mind if anyone sat with her. especially if said place was busy too.
