Flying Back to You

[charmaineavrett]

Charmaine was jumpy, anxious, and ready to bolt like some scared animal. She couldn’t be here, especially not with Zoe around. She swallowed rather painfully and cast her eyes downward at her feet. She shook her head. “I’m fine,” she mumbled, never being able to lie effectively since she never really lied. “I’m just taking a late night walk around because I can’t sleep.” She was cringing at the lie but she had no choice. She had to get out of here. “You should get back inside. It really is getting late and you might end up getting hurt or something.”

[zoe-ftw]

Despite the response, Zoe remained unconvinced. Now, Charmaine seemed to be avoiding her gaze and had a general standoffish air about her. It made Zoe suspicious, but more than that, she couldn't help but to feel slightly concerned. "Why don't we walk back together, then?" She offered, not wanting to retreat to her room with no idea of what might be going on with the girl.

"Isn’t it weird to know most people had sex? I mean that cute old lady sat next to me on the bus and I realzied she probably choked on a dick at one point in her life…."

[zoe-ftw]

"And now I'm thoroughly grossed out. Thanks for that."

Flying Back to You

She had to be quiet. Quiet as a mouse or else someone was bound to hear her and they would stop her. And she couldn’t have that. She couldn’t have someone ruining this for her. Charmaine clung to the strap of her bag, making her way across campus, towards the parking lot where she would hotwire one of the cars and drive off to the airport. But it was hard to see, her eyes not having adjusted to the lighting and before she could stop herself, her body collided with warm flesh, someone who had decided to go out on a midnight stroll. “Shit,” she whispered in frustration. “What the hell are you doing?” she asked, trying desperately to make it seem like she wasn’t doing anything wrong.

[zoe-ftw]

As she walked, Zoe's eyes had drifted to the dark sky above, never a good idea considering her clumsiness. And here it was getting her in trouble again as she felt her body hit someone, followed by a reprimand. Glancing at the person, she was surprised to recognize it as Charmaine. "I, uh, needed some air?" It came out like a question, as if asking if she were in trouble for it. "What are you doing?" Looking over the girl, she narrowed her eyes a she observed her demeanor. She seemed weird, too jumpy or something, so Zoe persisted with a follow up question. "Are you okay?"

[hazel-oniw]

Don’t you just hate it when you’re talking to a friend and then some random person joins the conversation. And I’m looking at them like can you please NOT..

[zoe-ftw]

I generally just laugh in a really obviously fake way, regardless of what they said. Tends to scares away the person.

[micahavrett-deactivated20150629]

"Hey, hey, hey. Don’t you start giving up on me. You were doing well in the beginning. You just can’t give up because you’re starting to lose it. I don’t care how many times I have to repeat myself. As long as you can get it then I can stay here all day with you. Got it? Let’s start from the top?"

[zoe-ftw]

She nodded slightly, an exhale pushing past her lips. Despite her inclination to resign herself to failure, she was glad Micah was patient enough to work with her. The last thing she wanted was to burden him, and it meant there was actually a shot of her getting the material. "From the top, yes." She peered over at the sheet of paper, intent on giving her undivided attention this time.

[charmaineavrett]

Charmaine was happy to hear that playful tone come back into Zoe’s voice. It made her worry less about her friend. She laughed. “It would be funny just seeing a little girl beating the crap out of a guy who’s much taller than her. That would be the greatest story of all time.” She rolled her eyes playfully. “Of course, I’m offering free coffee. I did ask you didn’t I?” She offered her arm. “Shall we go mademoiselle?”

[zoe-ftw]

"It would be hilarious. I bet you could pack a few punches, too," she asserted, nodding in agreement. "Just wanted to be sure." A grin broke onto her face as she linked their arms. "I believe we shall, madame." She wore a face of total seriousness for a brief moment as she said the words, but a giggle escaped her afterwards.

[charmaineavrett]

"Exactly. How about we make some cringe-worthy moments right now? It’ll be fun and I’m sure it’ll strengthen our friendship."

[zoe-ftw]

"You mean you would go out of your way to create cringe-worthy moments for us? That may be the nicest thing anyone's ever done for me."

[maria-wardr]

Well…I…I have a-a…girl-girlfriend.

[zoe-ftw]

Aw, congrats on your relationship. So who's the lucky... person?

"sweeeet, i’m outside the dorms right now and the cab just pulled up. I’ll have them wait if you need some time to get ready." He smiled as he handed the driver a few bucks to hold on for a few minutes.

[zoe-ftw]

"Okay, cool, I just gotta get my things, but I'll be there in a little bit." After saying goodbye, Zoe slipped into a presentable outfit and fixed her hair, rather quickly as she didn't want to keep Ben waiting too long. Within a matter of minutes, she had found herself exiting the building, and she noticed the cab out front immediately. Grinning when she saw Ben's figure, she pulled open the door. "Hiya," she greeted him as she slipped inside.

[maria-wardr]

Oh…I…I…ye-yes…that’s…that’s true.

[zoe-ftw]

It's a great quote. So, what's got you over the moon?

The dancer laughed at Zoe’s answer, it had been a while since they spoke so he was hoping to get the chance to actually get to know the girl.

"It’s Demi Lovato and Pink, did I mention there’s an after party?" He asked with a chuckle as he looked for the cab he had requested to pull up.

[zoe-ftw]

"I do have a soft spot for Demi." She hadn't expected to hear about the after party either, seeing as she'd never been able to get into one before. "An afterparty, too? Alright, I'm in. Where should I meet you?"

[bo-rowling-deactivated20150305]

"Not to brag or anything but there’s a reason I have a 3.9 gpa, I’m Bo by the way."

[zoe-ftw]

"Holy shit. Congrats on your brain, dude. Cool name, Bo, I'm Zoe. Can I ask what love has to do with one's gpa, though?"

[bo-rowling-deactivated20150305]

"I’m so very sorry, love sucks doesn’t it?That’s why I don’t do any of that shit."

[zoe-ftw]

"Yeah, wall issues aside, love kind of does suck. That's probably a smart move on your part."

[bo-rowling-deactivated20150305]

"I say you tell the wall your feelings, maybe it feels the same."

[zoe-ftw]

"I've tried, but the wall doesn't respond. Dunno what I did to deserve the silent treatment."

[charmaineavrett]

Charmaine gave her the tiniest, but kindest of smiles. She gave her a little squeeze and shook her head. “It’s okay. I’m just happy I saw what was going on. He shouldn’t have done that too you. It wasn’t right. And next time I see I’ll make sure that he gets his ass beaten up by me. Or I’ll ask Seth or Brennan to beat him up for you.” She stroked Zoe’s blonde hair and tilted her head at her. “Do you want to go buy a coffee so you can feel better? I’ll buy one for you.”

[zoe-ftw]

"It would be kind of fun to watch him get his ass kicked," Zoe admitted, the usual playful tone finding its way back into her voice. She couldn't believe how great Charmaine was being about the whole situation. It instantly alleviated her mood. "You're offering me free coffee? Yes, obviously, that would be great." She let out a light laugh, nodding as she said it.
