A Fresh Start

@averysrphq

As she stepped off the bus and onto the busy street, Rory squinted against the unforgiving Philly sun. Landing a summer internship at the trendy and up-and-coming Truncheon Press was a dream come true, but she couldn't help but regret her choice to read Tolstoy instead of catching some much-needed sleep on the way. Desperate for a shower and a fresh start, Rory walked towards the industrial red brick building with her well-worn luggage scraping the cement behind her. Still feeling the weight of her exhaustion, the brunette rubbed her eyes in an attempt to shake off the lingering drowsiness and looked around to orient herself when her eyes locked on the reflection in the window. It couldn't be, could it? Her heart somersaulted in her chest as she blinked hard. The unmistakable figure of Jess Mariano, leaning against a bookshelf, deeply engrossed in a book felt like a mirage. She couldn’t be that tired, could she? Rory questioned and she rubbed her eyes once again.

That messy hair, the familiar leather jacket – it was him. Rory's breath caught in her throat as she watched Jess. The last time she saw him, six months prior, she was a mess- a drop out- and in the DAR. Her cheeks burned with embarrassment at the memory of their last encounter with Logan. Only she would have the luck to, of all the places in Philly, run into him. Frozen at the threshold of the press, Rory felt her body shrink as she fixed her gaze on the floor and silently stepped inside, hoping not to be seen.

Charlotte was in the living room studying, her headphones on loudly blaring Queen’s Another One Bite’s the Dust, and tapping her pencil against her Applied Mathmatics for Musicians textbook when she noticed some movement out of the corner of her eye.

She lifted her head to see a small brunette carrying her shoes trying to sneak out of the apartment and waved at her with a cheeky little grin when their eyes met. The girl blushed and quickly escaped out the front door and Charlotte decided not to let her know that her leggings were on inside out.

“And another one gone,” She sung aloud along with her music, eyebrows raised as she waited for the second person to eventually exit his bedroom for ‘breakfast’. When he appeared she looked back down at her textbook and to hide her amused judgment while still singing to the song, “Look out, Another one bite’s the dust.”

When it was over she pulled the large headphones off and looked at him over the couch, “Fun night?”

Flower Princesses

Iseul sat on the stool as she slowly put the flowers in the vase. A bride had called and wanted some options to choose from for the reception, a very common request. Pursing her lips she didn’t hear her mother glide into the room. “Iseul sweetheart.” A soft soothing voice spoke as she tapped Iseul on the shoulder and smiled her smile. A smile Iseul loved and found calming her anxious heart. “Yes umma?” She said putting down her sheers looking up as she pushed back a strand of hair that had gotten loose from her bun. “Sweetie, a big company has ordered a lot of flowers and we are going to collaborate with another shop to fill the order. i already spoke to them and they would like you to head over and meet the other florist and start with plans.”

That was how the morning started, Iseul bit her nails as she road the bus and arrived at the shop.Standing in front she bit her lip, her mother was usually the one to handle any collaborations but had been sick recently. Taking a deep breath and hitting her chest in hopes to stop the pounding of her heart she stepped forward. A small bell rang as she opened the door, a sound that she had grown use to in her own shop. Looking around the flowers everywhere, the smell seemingly to almost calm her nerves as she stepped forward and rang the bell on the counter.”Hello? I am here from Rain Flower Shoppe?” She said looking around for the other florist she would be working with, her heart suddenly pounding though her whole body. This was her least favorite thing to do.

Kyo was seated at one of the outdoor tables of his favorite cafe, fingers tapping away at the keyboard of his laptop. Usually, he much preferred being indoors, but with how crowded it was at that hour he felt that being outside was a much quieter option. What made it even better was that the sky had gotten cloudy and with the breeze the temperature began to cool a bit. Just how he liked it. 

He was getting really into the coding project he was working on when he heard some strange speech coming towards him. It almost sounded... robotic. Like how his computer sometimes sounded when he turned on speech notifications. After a moment of debating whether to bother checking his surroundings, curiosity got the best of him and he looked up, meeting eye to eye with someone that looked, to him, like a normal human being. “Um- Hi... Can I help you?”

( ( closed ;; @dovchebags ) ) plot: age gap difference and many people against their relationship so a lot of angst and fights.

“when you are done throwing a tantrum over absolutely nothing you can talk to me, you are so obsessed with the idea that i’m going to cheat on you that you are making things up in your head.” he sighed trying to keep his cool. “why?– i know your ex fucked you up, but i don’t know how many more times i have to tell you this, i. am. NOT. him.”

It was short notice, but the day of Naomi’s birthday had arrived and the man had whipped up a decently made party. It was a specialty, after all and what better time to utilize those skills than for his kid’s birthday? The weather might’ve been acting shitty but inside his establishment, he’d decorated to fit all the themes of a beach. Fake palm trees, inflatable sand boxes and kiddy pools alike were around with beach toys as well for his girl and her friends (and whichever adults wished) to play with. The food was also top notch, which was no surprise. Even if he had just made hot dogs and a couple various pizza’s, it was all to meticulous perfection. A pineapple mango fruit punch made special as well along with some pops and water, of course. Music to display oceanic themes were coming from the speakers. The Little Mermaid soundtrack to be exact, and a couple of his trusted staff was kept on to make sure everyone would be tended to thusly, while the party favors and cake was stored in the back. An hour before the party and the guests trickled in with the main star coming last, causing everyone to shout out (Logan loudest of all) “Happy birthday!” to the adorable child.

“Last nights feeding was nowhere near enough for my cravings at all....” Chungha mumbles to herself as she crossed her arms as she walks down the street. She could see people’s eyes on her as she didn’t realize the little amount of blood that was on the corner of her mouth. “And there’s no one good enough it seems to help them either... What I thought was going to be easy is now nowhere near easy at all....” Chungha rubs her forehead as she looks down at the ground as she stops to lean against the lamp post as she tries to figure out what her next steps would be. 

Chungha didn’t see the other female approach her until she was close to her. Her brown eyes look up at her as she slightly tilts her head to the side.

September 9, 2018: New Adventure

It had been several months now since Scott and Lakyn had began dating. More time they spent together, the more his heart was drawn to this woman. She seemed so perfectly perfect for him and he’d decided a week or so back to ask her an important question. Casual dating didn’t seem enough for his increasing greed he found to have towards her and, so, there he was on a Sunday afternoon waiting for Lakyn to exit her apartment and meet him by his car for (all she knew was) another simple date for them to enjoy. Spying her exit, a soft smile appeared and he just had to remark aloud. “You look beautiful.”
