[nathanieladkinssss]

Nathan and Hugo had been hanging around together a bit more lately after talking 2 weeks ago. right now they were outside some cheep diner,

“Those soc’s even worse at school all the time?” Hugo asked simply while chewing on a toothpick and watching a group of girls walk past with a small smile.

-@morettisiblings

"It's not worse, at least I don't think so, but still bad. I mostly get ignored, but when they do notice me, it's... not great, but nothing I can't handle. None of them want to talk to me, but it's not like I want to talk to them either."

[morettisiblings]

”yeah man” Hugo nodded while chewing on a piece of gum and chucking a small loose rock at a car driving past. “You should do something big.. like go smash up one of them rich kids cars” Hugo laughed.

[nathanieladkinssss]

"Oh my goodness, that would be hilarious. They'd beat my ass for that.." He glanced around. No rich kid cars here, but they wouldn't come to a place like this. "It would be fun though."

Hugo haf been working at the DX currently under a car working on whatever while the radio blasted some song. He whistled slightly as he reached for a tooo to continue fixing the car. A few minutes later his slid out from under the car to see someone walked in. “Hey, what cha’ need?” He asked while wiping his hands covered in grease on an old rag.

-@morettisiblings

This was a bad idea.

Him and Hugo had used to be friends, but that was... a while ago. They hadn't talked in.... a few months? Half a year? Definitely before the move. What would he think of him now? It was way too late to bail on this, despite how much he wanted to. He was scared.

"Um.... hey...?"

This was a bad idea.

[morettisiblings]

”why you around here?” He muttered a she chewed on a piece of gum and started cleaning up the tools he was now finished with. “I’m sure you don’t want anything from here ..” he glanced Nathan, a small scowl on his face.

Hugo didn’t want to hate him, but he did he hated all soc’s no matter what. And it wasn’t fair that he had it so good now.

[nathanieladkinssss]

Ouch. That hurt. Okay, well, what was his plan?

Okay, maybe he didn't have one. That's... fine, despite how much he should have had made one. Would have made everything easier.... oh well.

"I don't know, I just... haven't seen you in months."

He didn't think he'd changed that much, if at all, but if anyone would be able to tell, it would be Hugo.

[morettisiblings]

Hugo didn’t look at him as he closed the took box and put it on the counter. “Yeah welL that happens when you move across town” Hugo muttered as he kept risking trying to keep doing stuff around shop.

“cute shit” he said sarcastically to Nathan, glancing at his outfit. Soc clothes .. fancy, neat, expensive.

[nathanieladkinssss]

"I didn't want to move..!"

He wanted to explain everything. How he'd been forced to move with his mother, how his new "father" had thrown away his old clothes, but he knew he'd only get eye rolls and sarcastic remarks. That's just how he was.

This all would have been so much easier if he were brave enough to make those remarks back and somehow prove he hadn't changed. It was clear that one of the ways Nathaniel hadn't changed was that he was still a nervous wreck most of the time.

[morettisiblings]

Hugo stopped what he was doing and turned to face Nathan properly. He watched him as he chewed on the toothpick in his mouth. “I ain’t seen you in a month, you’ve turned into some rich kid? And now your here” Hugo asked his brows raised

he knew Nathan was a nervous guy and and it always pissed him off how he wouldn’t argue or fight back. “Tell me why your here or leave” Hugo shrugged as he walked to the DX counter and unpacked a box of cigarettes.

[nathanieladkinssss]

"I.... I guess I just miss my life from when I lived over here. No one really wants to talk to me anymore, which I guess is fair, I don't look too nice anymore, huh...."

Not even the people near him really wanted to talk to him. The closest thing he had had to a friend for a while was his little sister's friends who would wave to him when they came over. That was kind of pathetic, but honestly? So was he.

He hadn't toughened up with the rest of his friends. He was scared, saying he just wasn't ready. So he stayed on the side, trying to help people in fights rather than getting in fights himself. He was scared, but now he wished he hadn't been so nervous. Oh well...

[morettisiblings]

”I went over to your place a month ago after u left, u weren't home and ur fuckin’ new old ma screamed at me” Hugo grunted while he kept packing the cigarette into the shelf. “I don’t get why u don’t find somewhere to stay down here? Explain or something Nathan? Yell if u gotta get ur point across?” Hugo waved his hands around as he talked.

[nathanieladkinssss]

"I can't control what she does! If I could, I never would have left in the first place! I tried, but by the time I thought to ask all my old friends despised me! Besides, my mom would have sent out a search party within the hour, you know how she is a lot of the time...."

[nathanieladkinssss]

I'm walking through the park, lookin for somewhere to sit and work on my music. It is early in the morning, and I don't expect to be interrupted. That changes, though, when I see a guy in my spot.

Well, you sure are up early

@darla-the-muse

His eyes widened for half a second.

Yeah, he was. That was on purpose. He figured no one would be out here, which is why he was so surprised. He normally walked past here in the morning, but he decided to stay a while this time. Of course, he had no clue someone else would be coming out this early.

"...yeah, I guess I am."

[darla-the-muse]

I'm mildly annoyed, but I don't show it. I struggle with changes in my plans, and value consistency. Not sitting in MY spot is obviously difficult. But I need to act mature. Everyone sees that in me, anyways.

"Usually I... I sit there."

Shit. Am I being too direct?

I am being too direct. Shut up Darla. Learn social cues.

"I mean, I sit there often when doing music. This is a statement. Or comment? One of the two."

Shit Darla stop talking

"So um...are you planning on coming here to the park often?"

Damn it I'm screwed. It was worth a shot. Maybe my awkwardness will scare him away from the park and I'll get my spot back. But that's just petty. I wait for his response but also I'm panicking inside.

[nathanieladkinssss]

"...y'know, I can just leave if you really want me to."

A pause. Did he really care enough to tell her anything? Whatever, it wasn't like he had anything better to do.

"I normally walk past here, but I decided to stop about.... I don't know, 20 minutes ago? Like I said, I can leave if you want.".

[darla-the-muse]

"No, no. Don't worry about it, I don't even care that much anyways. I like that bench there" I point in a random direction and hope there is a bench there.

"Sorry for bothering you, bye..."

Fuck. I seem to love being awkward. Well, not actually. In the way I'm always doing things like that, I clarify to myself. I turn towards the direction I pointed in and scan around for a bench.

[nathanieladkinssss]

"No, really, it's fine. I should probably be back by now anyways..."

Ugh. Going back sounded awful, but he could tell this mystery girl was at least slightly annoyed with her. There wasn't a single bench near where she had pointed. She wasn't being subtle.

[darla-the-muse]

I look behind me. There isn't a single bench where I had pointed. I could run away in embarrassment.

"well...uh. You are already here, so you wanna hear my music? Just finished composin' it but nobodies hears it yet. Wanna hear?"

Hopefully after this he could understand that I wasn't usually this petty...

[nathanieladkinssss]

"...yeah, sure."

Anything to keep him out of the house. Besides, she seemed nice enough, even though he didn't recognize her...

[nathanieladkinssss]

character info + lore below...

full name: Nathaniel Adkins

family: Samantha Davison (mother), Henry Davison (step-father), Elizabeth Davison (step-sister)

other relationships: none (yet...)

age: 16

dob: July 27th

social status: Soc (..?)

height: 5'9 (abt 175 cm)

sexuality: straight (he never looked much into it. he liked girls, so that's what he assumed.)

backstory: he's spent all his life in tulsa, but... on different sides. his dad was gone since before he can remember, and his mom had worked hard to keep the two of them afloat. she loved him, but she was never really present. he had some friends from school, one of which being sodapop curtis, and he met darry and ponyboy a few times because of this, but most of the other greasers knew him. he was that guy who'd help anyone out no matter who they were. his mother was a nurse, and he had picked up quite a few things from her. if you needed relatively basic medical help, you went to nathaniel adkins. he'd always help. this was until, when he was 15, his mother married her boyfriend at the time, henry davison. she changed her last name, nathaniel refused to. they moved to his house, on the other side of town. he didn't want to go, but what choice did he have? his new step-father spoiled him, new clothes, new books, even those piano lessons he wanted when he was little that his mother thought he still wanted. but to him, it would never be enough. it would never be the same. his old friends didn't want anything to do with him anymore, despite his insistence he never changed. they claimed that he thought he was "too good for them" now.

"Nathaniel? I've seen him around, but not recently. Sodapop's friend is all I ever knew him as, but I've heard others mention his name. He was the guy to go to if you were badly injured but didn't want to deal with the hospital, but I haven't seen him in a real long time. Rumor has it he's on the East side now, however that happened. People don't seem to like him too much, something about abandoning us, but from what I heard, he didn't have much of a choice."
