To Start Again || Jazz & Lyric

Jazz was trying not to let her nerves get the better of her but it wasn’t working. She’d sent that text over a week ago, surprised that he answered at all. Art created after a breakup or major life event was always different in some way, but since her breakup with Lyric she hadn’t sold a single piece. After hearing from one of their mutual friends that he wasn’t doing so well with his art either she decided to reach out.

But this wasn’t just about the art, well not entirely. She had something to say, whether or not he would take it well was a different story. But still, she stuck to cleaning up her apartment to calm her nerves and waited for her ex-boyfriend to show up. When the door knocked she took a moment to collect herself before answering it.

“Hi…thanks for coming.” @kingkillmongerwrites

“Looks like you’ve been working hard” he added, “So… whats this about?”

[shys-oc-blog]

Jazz looked over at the paintings he was talking about sighing, she hated them. She'd hated everything she'd tried making lately. Jazz decided to pace while she talked, it helped especially when she was nervous. "I had a thought. You're going to think I'm insane but I've tried everything else..." She turned to pace in the other direction, "You remember how we used to say we did some of our best work at the beginning or our relationship? I think I need to get back to that, creatively anyway because lately everything I've done is just...not working. Am I making any sense?" She actually stopped then, waiting for him to say something.

Raya sighed, “I thought we were chilling? I’m chill, well I would be if you let me finish the dishes but apparently, cleaning doesn’t count to you.” She tried to move as carefully as possible, so she didn’t disturb him too much pulling off her sweater so she was sitting in her tank top. “There. Comfortable. Are you pleased with my efforts?” she mocked playfully. “You know eventually I’m going to have to pet Marley. I don’t know if you know this, but we made a deal that every time I come over I have to pet the dog.” As if to agree Marley huffed, making her laugh. “See? He agrees.”

She’d only gotten high twice, both of which happened with Zane. It was definitely relaxing, she understood why he liked it so much. “Okay completely chill. I will have a smoke only if we can order pizza!” She scratched lightly at the side of his face absentmindedly, “Is that chill enough?” @kingkillmongerwrites

Zane clapped his hands in excitement “Yes!” he exclaimed “Thats what I’m talking about, lets get the vibes going” he sat up and moved over to get his stash, “I’ll be right back, Marley keep Raya company for a second. Make sure she stays chill” he said pointing at the puppy in front of him as he stepped out of the room.

A few moments Later, Zane came back into the room with a blunt rolled and sat next to Raya. “Okay, before I spark this up I’ll let you order the pizza so its on its way” He smiled “See chillin and still being responsible.”

[shys-oc-blog]

"Your dad is nuts," Raya whispered to Marley who huffed again. She decided to take that as a sign of agreement.

Raya pulled her feet up on the couch, as Zane came back into the room. "Food is always a good choice. Well, the fridge in my apartment is literally a health hazard, but fresh made pizza will also be amazing." It took a few minutes for Raya to get the order in, putting her feet on Zane's lap as she hung up the phone. "45 minutes. I wouldn't mind a foot rub if you're offering." Raya teased as her phone rang. Seeing the caller ID she declined the call quickly, "Nope. not dealing with that, at least not right now."

He saved his number in her phone nodding along as she spoke, “Not really, I planned on spending a little bit here. Better than the mess I left at home.” Devon cursed himself hoping she wouldn’t ask any follow up questions to his accidental overshare. “The guys will be fine, but I should at least check in with them.”

Putting his hands in his pockets he looked straight ahead towards the hotel while he tried to sound as nonchalant as possible. “So…do we tell anyone or just keep it to ourselves? The marriage I mean, our marriage I guess… I don’t know.” He mumbled the last bit to himself. “It’s up to you I’ll follow your lead, I just uhh…don’t want to make it awkward for you.” @kingkillmongerwrites

“I don’t think anything can make the situation any more awkward than it already is” Mya replied laughing softly to herself. She folded her arms across her chest as she continued to walk beside her unexpected husband and think.

 “Honestly I’m probably not going to tell anyone? The last thing i need is more judgement back home. I’m already under enough constant pressure to be perfect.”I might tell my best friend just to have someone to talk to about it but… then again she’s terrible at keeping secrets.”  rolling her eyes at the thought of how her family would react “yeah, I don’t know” she sighed then looked over to Devon remembering what he said earlier about not going home. “So are you just going to stay behind by yourself?”

[shys-oc-blog]

Devon listened, wondering what pressures she was under, and if that's what led to her trip to Vegas. "Well, I mean I don't want to be that person that's all, 'spill your guts to a stranger' but I mean if you need someone to talk to I'm not gonna tell anyone. And plus I'm great at keeping secrets." Hearing the question he sighed, "Uhhh, yeah. If we're secret swapping...I got fired Friday afternoon and we were on a flight to Vegas hours later. I didn't even tell the guys. They think we're just having a boys weekend."

Maddie nodded at the question, looking back at her dad “I tried but dad’s not very good at the turns.”

Cole shook his head, smiling at Skye, “I tried but I’m just not very graceful.” He wondered if they would have some time alone, maybe after Maddie went to bed if she wanted to stay that long. To actually talk, about things between them. The time they had apart was not done purposely but it had helped Cole realize that he really wanted to give things a fair chance and maybe finally explain to her where his hesitation lied. He didn’t talk about Maddie’s mom much, but Skye deserved him being open with her. He was going to try.

“Thanks for coming to paint with us,” Cole said as Maddie moved over to her paints. He wrapped Skye in a hug, “I missed you.” @kingkillmongerwrites

“Thanks for inviting me” Skye responded as she returned his hug, instantly feeling like she was going to melt in his arms. “I missed you more”, she said. Gently grabbing Cole’s hand she moved to sit next to Maddie.She wanted to say alot more in that moment and ask him the hard questions about their situation but decided to hold her tongue since now probably wasn’t exactly the right time to dive into their issue, at least not while Maddie was sitting there. “So… what are we painting first?” 

[shys-oc-blog]

Cole rubbed his thumb over Skye's hand while Maddie happily answered the question. "Sunsets! I like them because they can be different colours. You can use yellow, orange, pink and sometimes even purple! Or you can paint it whatever colour you want, dad says we can. Painting is for fun, so there are no rules!" Maddie moved to her easel on the other side of the room, leaving her dad and Skye on the couch.

"I swear I didn't give her coffee she's just excited," Cole defended with a laugh. "She's good too, I know everyone says that about their kids but she really is talented. She painted that one," Cole pointed to the painting that hung in the front hallway, "Just a month ago."

Cole just finished get dressed when his phone buzzed, and now he was just mixing paints. Skye was going to be here in just a few minutes, and he was strangely nervous. It had been a while since they’d seen each other in person for obvious reasons, but more than that he had to consider Maddie. He hadn’t dated in quite a few years, and hoped that his daughter would be okay with this. Luckily Skye and Maddie already had a bond so this wasn’t going to be entirely new to her.

When the door knocked, Cole watched Maddie zoom past him. “Dad! The door! The door!”

Cole had to laugh, seeing his daughter this excited was adorable. “I heard Sunshine, I’m getting it.” Maddie was practically bouncing when he opened the door for Skye. “Hi, long time no see, come on in!” @gleekywolf1x1 @kingkillmongerwrites

Skye’s heart was racing the moment he opened the door, “I know, right.” she  responded nervously. She’d thought she had her mixture of emotions and excitement of not seeing him in so long under control until actually seeing him. But her saving grace was the little one who’d ran up between them. “Hi Maddie” Skye greeted excitedly, giving her former student a hug. “Have you been practicing and keeping your dad in shape?” she giggled.

Devon laughed, “Let’s not let our sober selves get us in any more trouble Mya.” He nodded along as she talked, it’s not that he wasn’t listening he was just thinking, she still had to get from Vegas to well wherever she lived, but he himself was not really in a rush to leave Vegas considering the mess he’d left behind at home.

He snapped back to attention as she was asking for a to-go box, giving the waitress a smile as he paid the bill. He turned to Mya with a shrug “So, what now, I’ll walk you back to your room if you want? I guess…we can talk about this later? I guess we should exchange numbers…I’m not trying to ditch you or anything…we just don’t have any way of getting in touch.” @gleekywolf1x1 @kingkillmongerwrites

The question of what now really stuck in Mya’s head, because she herself had no idea. He didn’t seem like a completely terrible guy so she didn’t want to be a complete bitch to him. The situation wasn’t completely his fault after all. “Maybe we can talk about it a little more while you walk me back” she suggested. “But exchanging numbers is probably a good idea too for now”. Gesturing for his phone she put her number in and saved it for him. 

The different moods and feelings Mya had felt in the last hour or so was almost exhausting. She was freaked out and partly just not ready to go back to her friends and home living every day putting on a front. “Lets get out of here” She sighed softly “I’m sure your friends are concerned, as well as mine”.

Raya sighed, Zane had a good point but talking to her roommate was harder than expected. “Yeah, but you can’t really argue with Marley, and even if you do he’d probably win on account of he’s adorable.” She gasped pretending to be offended “I wasn’t judging! I was just saying. You know I have no problem with you smoking. I wouldn’t be sitting here playing with your hair if I did.” Sighing and leaning her head against the couch Raya stopped moving her fingers “You make that sound easy, being honest with you isn’t the same as being honest with other people! Talking to you is easier and you know I dislike confrontation. I’m just going to hang out with you and Marley while I avoid her the best I can. As long as you don’t kick me out, but I feel like you never will as long as I play with your hair.” @gleekywolf1x1 @kingkillmongerwrites

Raya sighed, "I thought we were chilling? I'm chill, well I would be if you let me finish the dishes but apparently, cleaning doesn't count to you."

Raya looked down at him and shrugged, “Never thought it was something I could afford long term plus it seems a little lonely.” She ran her nails through his hair, content with the motion. Getting her nails done with acrylics seemed to be the only thing that worked lately, otherwise she would have bit them down to nothing. And as she’d discovered a while back they were great for playing with Zane’s hair.

“You’re telling me you’re not even a little lonely? Like not even a little bit?” It wasn’t that Raya didn’t want to be alone, but all the time? It really just seems a little sad. Refocusing on her fingers through his hair finding a new rhythm she laughed, “you totally were don’t lie!” @zane420

Zane relaxed a little more, snuggling into her lap a little more, the feeling of her nails against his scalp and her fingers running through his hair brought an extra and different comfort aside from being stoned. “I feel that, but I mean, you’re you… always strong and independent. ‘Don’t neeeeed nobooody’ ”  he teased “I really don’t get that lonely I guess…. I’m okay with my own space and peace. Plus I have Marley whose always down to chill.” He shrugged, trying to hold back his own laughter, “I just don’t need you judgin okay.” He sat up and placed his hand gently on her knee. “You just gotta be real, like you are with me. Tell her the truth and accept your own”

Hi Again || Cole and Skye

A lot had happened in the past 6 months that had Cole stressed, with the pandemic and Maddie and bills to worry about he’d been a little more uptight than usual. So seeing as it was the weekend he decided it was time to have a little fun. So he’d woken up before Maddie as always, and put down the tarps and got the painting supplies out. He found painting relaxing and lucky for him his daughter found it fun. As much as he worried about her, Maddie was a good kid, smart and kind and spent way too much time worrying about him. Maddie knew that he and Skye were dating now and seemed okay with the idea. Cole was prepared for a lot on that topic but the ease in which his 7-year-old had taken the news threw him off a bit.

His surprise only grew when it was Maddie who suggested that Skye come over to paint with them today, seeing as it was strictly a father daughter activity up until now. So he asked again as Maddie had her breakfast, and he sipped his coffee.  “Hey Sunshine, are you sure it’s okay that Skye comes over to paint with us today?”

Maddie smiled, nodding furiously “Yes! I want to show her my painting station!”

Cole laughed a bit, “Well we can pick out you colours after we change out of our pyjamas, Skye will be here in a few hours.“ @kingkillmongerwrites

Skye was pretty excited to see Cole and Maddie, Since the dance studio closed because of the pandemic and her last fight with Cole, she hadn’t physically seen him but they kept in contact through text and face time. Skye couldn’t really find herself mad enough to not contact him at all, no matter how she felt, she could understand where he was coming from, it was a tough situation. 

Taking a little extra step to get ready as she wanted to make sure she was appropriate and casual for painting and getting messy but also cute enough for Cole, So a sleeveless hooded crop top and a pair of sweats it was. Almost typical dancer gear honestly. 

She glanced one more time in the mirror, and made she she wasn’t wearing anything she cared too much about and headed over to Cole’s. “Hey, I’m on my way. Should be there in about 20 minutes” she texted, to give him a heads up.

[shys-oc-blog]

Cole just finished get dressed when his phone buzzed, and now he was just mixing paints. Skye was going to be here in just a few minutes, and he was strangely nervous. It had been a while since they'd seen each other in person for obvious reasons, but more than that he had to consider Maddie. He hadn't dated in quite a few years, and hoped that his daughter would be okay with this. Luckily Skye and Maddie already had a bond so this wasn't going to be entirely new to her.

When the door knocked, Cole watched Maddie zoom past him. "Dad! The door! The door!"

Cole had to laugh, seeing his daughter this excited was adorable. "I heard Sunshine, I'm getting it." Maddie was practically bouncing when he opened the door for Skye. "Hi, long time no see, come on in!" @gleekywolf1x1 @kingkillmongerwrites

[moore-mya]

shys-oc-blog​:

Devon smirked, “So you admit you think I’m cute. Good to know. You’re very cute yourself.” He sighed though knowing he shouldn’t tease her too much, they didn’t know each other that well despite… well all of this.

“It’s Lopez. Your last name is Lopez…well for now. We’ll get it fixed.” He cleared his throat, “Listen I know this isn’t ideal, and I hate this phrase so I’m sorry I’m about to use it but, it’s going to be okay you know? We’ll get it sorted out.” @moore-mya

Mya rolled her eyes at his teasing only to tease back “Well I guess that’s how we got into this situation in the first place… Only difference is my sober mind can see a little further past the cute” she sarcastically smirked afterwards. “Lopez isn’t terrible… Mya Lopez, it fits at least. but yeah… its definitely needs to be sorted out” she quickly added.

 Pushing the rest of her food away, she sighed softly “I think I need a to go box”. The mix of finally getting some recovery food, plus the hangover and just needing more sleep stared to take over. 

[shys-oc-blog]

Devon laughed, "Let's not let our sober selves get us in any more trouble Mya." He nodded along as she talked, it's not that he wasn't listening he was just thinking, she still had to get from Vegas to well wherever she lived, but he himself was not really in a rush to leave Vegas considering the mess he'd left behind at home.

Let’s Talk || Devon and Mya

Devon was fine now, or for now rather they’d found something to eat. Burgers and fries, greasy and perfect for the hangovers they were both sporting. Devon was unsure of himself once again, he didn’t know this woman but yet he’d married her the night before. She was very beautiful of course but the whole thing from what they could piece together went from a very bizarre 0 to 100 quickly. As they ate he groaned, holding out his hand for hers surveying the wedding band, “Why is this ring so tacky? I assure you non-drunk me has much better taste than that. Not that it matters, but you can take it off you know? I won’t be offended I promise.” He went back to chewing on fries, before a thought occurred to him.

“Mya?” The name still felt weird on his tongue, “You don’t know what your last name is do you?” He tried not to smirk, it wasn’t funny; okay it was a little funny. But he doubted she even asked for his last name last night let alone remembered it.

Mya was slowly coming back from her hangover, the food was helping  a little but she definitely felt like just water and more sleep would be heaven right now as she was starting to feel sick. Side eyeing his question, she looked at him wondering if he was serious. “Of course I know my last name, what kind of question is that? I got wasted and married not..-” she paused realizing what he’d asked “Haha” she mocked “Very cute… I guess I technically don’t know what my last name is in this case. And I guess I could take this hidious ring off”

Mya pulled the wedding band from her finger and set it in front of her, “so what is my last name?  I mean Your last name” she corrected herself. “God this is so embarrassing” she sighed burrying her face in her hands.

[shys-oc-blog]

Devon smirked, “So you admit you think I’m cute. Good to know. You’re very cute yourself.” He sighed though knowing he shouldn’t tease her too much, they didn’t know each other that well despite... well all of this.

Raya huffed, continuing to scrub the dishes “It’s upsetting because she’s making it seem like living in a clean space and not partying when you have work in the morning are problematic, they are not. But it’s fine I’m just gonna wait here for a bit arguing with her is pointless.”

She didn’t even notice him get up, but suddenly he was next to her at the sink. “But I have to…I just…” She tried to pull her hands away but she let him bring her to the couch. “I like doing dishes, it’s relaxing, I’ll do them later.” Raya sighed dramatically, “Finding a new roommate is going to suck though, I mean I don’t want to but I can’t live alone, and I am not moving back in with my parents.” She paused, looking at her friend with narrowed eyes, “You were talking about smoking weren’t you?”

Zane listened as his friend ranted. Picking his guitar up he then laid across her lap, looking up at her, completely interested in what she had to say while he quietly plucked at the strings. “Why exactly can’t you live alone?” He asked “When my roommate moved out, I definitely felt like I had more freedom… you definitely don’t have to worry about somebody all in your shit or living in a way you don’t agree with.” 

He grinned at her question before acting as if he was offended. “Wooow really Raya, weed?  of all the things I could have been talking about, you just assume I was talking about smoking?”

Fed up || Raya and Zane

Raya grunted in frustration, things with her roommate were shit again. This was getting more difficult to ignore, to chalk up to just personal differences. Sure Raya knew that she wasn’t the most relaxed person in the world, but her roommate Emily’s constant need for parties, drinking, and general messiness were getting out of hand.

Needing to get out of her apartment for a bit, she took a walk across the hall to Zane’s and knocked, huffing as the door opened when she turned the handle. “You know how I feel about you leaving this open!” she commented as she let herself in locking it on the other side. She quickly surveyed the area, it was definitely cleaner then her place at the moment but there were dishes in the sink. She rolled up her sleeves and started washing, she needed to relax.

“Emily’s home talking incredibly loudly about moving out like I’m supposed to object or something! What am I objecting to? Not living in a pigsty? Who would object to that, that is preferred! I don’t understand, I don’t understand,” she mumbled the last bit to herself a few times before glaring over in the direction of Zane’s couch. “This would be the part where you said something you know?” Raya continued scrubbing the dishes, probably much more intensely than need be.

Realizing what she had just done, barging in on him she sighed, “Sorry I guess what I meant was…hi?” @kingkillmongerwrites

“Hi…” Zane responded with a soft smile, his eyes low and glossy. He had  just smoked and been sitting on the couch strumming at his guitar before his distressed friend came barging in, so he was pretty relaxed to say the least.

“You’re right, I really should start locking my door” he joked. “But to answer your questions…I don’t know why Emily expressing she wants to move out is upsetting, I mean it is what you want right? tell her to get her stuff and bounce.” He shrugged.

Setting his guitar down he got up and shuffled over to Raya. Zane hadn’t had a roommate so he didn’t really have to deal with this type of thing so he didn’t want to say anything that wasn’t helpful. Grabbing her hands he pulled her away from the dishes “You don’t have to do that, come sit” he said calmly. “Maybe its me, but I feel like this could be an easy fix.”

Raya huffed, continuing to scrub the dishes “It’s upsetting because she’s making it seem like living in a clean space and not partying when you have work in the morning are problematic, they are not. But it’s fine I’m just gonna wait here for a bit arguing with her is pointless.”
