moonie had, had quite a productive afternoon. he didn’t feel as tired as he usually did, in fact he could keep practicing but he felt like taking a break from it all just for the day, maybe he’d get in contact with his sister or his parents.. maybe even his brothers. but he finds himself just walking, distracted by everything around him until he just randomly stops because he’s completely fogotten what he’s supposed to be doing.

“ crap. “ he murmurs to himself, he’s in his own world and doesn’t hear anyone approach.

“Shit.” Nathan’s voice came out harshly under his breath, getting drowned out by the usual buzz around the city, along with the clicking noises coming from the empty lighter he was holding up to the cigarette currently hanging off the corner of his lips. He shook his head in defeat and tossed it into the next trashcan he passed as his slow steps dragged him on . He wasn’t in a rush - work wouldn’t start for another few hours but for some reason he didn’t want to head back to his apartment just now. Some days he just couldn’t stand it, the emptiness of it with his few belongings all over the place in an organized mess. It was almost too small, too, even for him and with the bit of money he made there was no way for him to be able to decorate it and make a proper home out of it right now. With a deep sigh, Nathan reached for the cigarette to hold it between his fingers and clenched his jaw before approaching the next best person to hesitatingly speak up. “Hey! Uhm, sorry to bother you but - do you have a light for me by any chance? Mine kinda gave up, I guess…”

so, maybe stopping on his way to work to rescue a kitten wasn’t his most logical plan. however, when he’d seen the tiny kitten curled up behind the dumpster on his way, he hadn’t been able to stop himself from coming to a halt as he spent the next twenty minutes earning enough trust to pick him up. originally, he’d only wanted to save the little thing, the size of it making it apparent that it hadn’t eaten in a while, but he hadn’t considered what to do once he had it. he couldn’t have pets in his own apartment, after all. but, just as he began wondering what he was going to do, he felt someone’s shoulder gently brush him as they walked by him and he turned to start a conversation quickly before they were gone. 

“ okay, I know this is going to sound crazy. ” he started his conversation carefully, words leaving his lips slow as he pieced together his argument one word at a time. “ but you wouldn’t happen to be interested in a kitten, would you? ” and then, before they could protest, he threw any resemblance of a plan out the window as he began rambling to fill the silence instead. “ I only found him a moment ago, so I can’t really guarantee anything, but he seems very sweet. ” offering a sweet smile of his own, he began searching their features for any sign as to whether or not his sales pitch was working. “ and he’s free. ” he added as an afterthought, as if that fact wasn’t already abundantly clear by the fact that he was currently arguing for his adoption. “ and you’d be doing a very kind thing by giving a very sweet boy a good home? ”

after he'd served a few people he'd taken notice of the person's phone sitting near where the sugar and the stirrers were. thankfully now on a break he lifted it, knowing it must have been the last person to take a seat and he moved his way over because the last two people had just left quickly and he remembered the person’s face. 

“ sorry to bother you. . . you left this up there. “ he offered it out to them with a shy smile.

SJ is completely focused on taking pictures, he needs just a few more for his project and then he’s done for the rest of the weekend. but he’d already taken some of the place he was in so he began wandering again however the figure caught his attention and he tilted his head. it was a nice scene in front of him he just couldn’t take the picture without at least asking. 

 “ hey.  . .  could you maybe move a little to the left and let me take a picture?  please ?” he asked in a hopeful tone holding his camera up to show them.

Celine was not used to what she considered the small town vibes, she was a rich girl who got everything handed to her and now she was somewhere she didn’t even want to be finding a boy she didn’t want to but if she went back to the uk without him she would be in big trouble. “Can you point me to the closest restaurant. preferably somewhere nicer that doesn’t make you feel sick from sitting so close to someone” she said trying to take in this whole new world. the Model was ready to call it quits already and go home but had to try.

Alexa had been living in Freeridge for a year and a half, but still felt like a complete newbie. It probably didn’t help that she usually kept herself cooped up in her apartment or sitting in the corner of the coffee shop with a nose in a book. Between those two things and teaching English at the local high school, she didn’t really do much else. That was why she decided it was time for a change.

It was the weekend and she had pretty much completed everything she needed to have done for work on Monday so her time was hers to do whatever she wanted. Instead of heading to her usual spot in the usual coffee shop, she decided she would head to the park. Maybe she would stop off and get a coffee to go and she would bring her book too, but hey, at least she would be sitting in a change of scenery.

Half an hour later she was sitting on a park bench, her coffee sitting carefully next to her, her book in front of her nose. As time passed she hadn’t noticed that the park was getting progressively busier. She hadn’t stopped to think that it was a sunny Saturday afternoon. That didn’t seem to bother her though. Once she was sucked into a good book, it was hard to get her out, no matter what was going on around her.

sj was  enjoying himself a little. he just wanted to relax a little and do something other than work  despite loving being able to take photographs. “ hm? “ he hummed hearing the voice come through once the music stopped playing in his ears and he looked up.
