@ScarlettWaters16 (Yes, that is exactly right.) Neveah growled, pushing his legs off the table. "Why would I ever try with someone like you? You seem like an a-hole, and we've only been talking for five minutes." Neveah leaned back and folded her arms, rolling her eyes. She wanted to kick him out, but she also didn't want to cause a ruckus. She considered what he said, and tried for a bit of a delicate response. "So what you're saying is you don't like a challenge?"

Nodding Belaziri ran into a small consignment shop next to her and crouched in the window as the men came up to her savior and started to push him around. Being inside she couldn't hear what they were saying but it didn't sound pleasant at all. Wincing, Belaziri contemplated getting up and just going out there, but then she got an even better idea. After buying a small silver and iridescent metal cuff she walke dout of the store and wrapped an arm around his waist like she had been for a while. "Babe I just found the coolest cuff while I was in there for you. Are you re- oh who are your friends?" She asked, looking at the creeps dead in the eye. "I remember you guys! This is my boyfriend. Like I was saying are you ready to get food?" She asked sweetly, giving the guy a little squeeze.

@Avanhelsing Estelle blinked as she heard a voice speak up along with things scraping against the concrete. She sat up in time to see a boy, presumably the person she had just run into, scrambling around collecting her things. She picked herself and helped him gather up the last of her things and shove everything back into her purse. She swung the bag over her shoulder and gave herself a once over to make sure everything was okay. She brushed a small bit of dirt off her pants. Her palms stinged a little from meeting the ground but other than that she was fine. Besides, she wasn't the most graceful person out there and so she was quite used to falls. She gave the boy she had collided with a small smile, brushing her hair out of her face. "I-It's partially my fault as well. I-I wasn't watching where I w-was going so I'm really sorry!" She said, a light blush spreading across her face. +~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+ @Savi Alastair jumped in surprise when a voice spoke up beside him. He jerked upright, glasses almost falling off his face. He quickly straightened them, gazing at the girl that had come up. Judging by her uniform she must have worked there. As her mentioning they had other dogs he shook his head. "I'm not looking to adopt. Er...the apartment doesn't allow dogs so...A-Anyway, I saw this guy a few weeks ago and have been visiting him everyday since. I felt sorry for him I guess, not being able to see his owner." Upon realizing he was rambling Alastair nudged his glasses up his nose. "I must be going. It was nice meeting you." With that he quickly walked away, wondering if it were possible to make a bigger fool out of himself than he already had.

Adelisa smiled slightly when the guy seemed nervous, it was kind of cute. She then shouted "hey! Wait!" She ran over to him and caught up to his pace. "Maybe you know him? His name starts with an S... Steven... Sam... something..." She looked up at him and a small smile appeared on her lips. "Of course, I don't expect you to know everything, but who can tell right?"

Mitchell turned his head and smiled. "Sure thing, babe," he said, draping an arm around the woman's shoulders. Despite the friendly smile he threw a brief, piercing, threatening glare toward the men and made sure to make second-long eye contact with each one. It was the kind of thing that communicated that yes, he would likely lose fighting them all, but he would also land one or two in the hospital. With that, he turned in the opposite direction and steered the attractive lady alongside him, ambling away from the suckers and whistling.

@ScarlettWaters16 Pete grinned at her. "Nice to meet you." he said as he paddled after her. He noticed the wave before he answered. "Been surfing since I was a child. Jason and I have been doing it since I can remember . Dad has always loved the ocean." He said before answering where Jason was. "He is in town. Dad wants us back at the hardware shop. Jason works the earlier shift." he explained as the wave got closer. He smiled over at her. "Got any siblings? It is fun to have a twin." he said shrugging. @XxLyraxX Jason looked up at the girl and smiled softly. He was sort of klutzy. Course he was less klutzy than Pete but that was nothing. "It was my fault. My brain was still at the beach." He admitted as he stood up. "I'm Jason. Jason Cameron." he said trying to be polite.

@Avanhelsing "Nah, I'm an only child," she says, looking toward the wave. They would have to stop talking at this point and concentrate if they wanted to ride this one. She paddles up to the wave, which has gotten fairly large at this point, and begins paddling up it as the crest of the wave begins to rise. She grins and begins to flip around on her board as the wave keeps picking her up higher. She wobbly stands up on her board and steadies herself, she begins to ride the wave and she gives out a laugh. She looks over and shouts to Peter, "This is my favorite part!" @CallaLily "I don't think you'd be much of a challenge anyways!" Gideon snaps, annoyed at this girl's arrogance and the way she pushed his feet off the table. "I don't even think you're worth my time anymore." He shoves the rest of the muffin into his mouth and storms off with a growl. He walks back out to his car. What a nerve of a girl! He couldn't believe that he had even tried flirting with her. Normally, girls just threw themselves at him and he loved it. He sighs again and gets in his car, heading back down the street toward the beach. All well. Forget her. He probably would never see her again.

Giggling Belaziri gave him a quick side hug and stepped back once they were out of sight. "Thanks for the help and for not blowing my cover. I'm Belaziri by the way." Sticking out her hand, she used the other to tuck a few stray hairs behind her ear and looked him over. He was cute, the dreds were nice, not too grungy and his eyes seemed to be endless. He was street sexy.

"Don't mention it." He gave her a friendly smile and shook her hand firmly. "It's a pleasure to meet you, Belaziri. I'm Mitchell, and that whole ordeal really spiced up my morning walk. So thank you!" He then scratched the back of his neck awkwardly, at a bit of a loss. "So, uh...is this it, then?"

@Avanhelsing Estelle gave him a shy smile as she brushed dirt off herself. ”H-Hello. I’m Estelle Forester, i-it’s very nice to meet you.” She said softly. Being as introverted as she was, she rarely talked to anybody other than her siblings. Alastair was the same way but he more awkward around people than shy really. She, on the other hand, couldn’t talk to someone without blushing and stuttering which made her cheeks turn even redder. Like right now for instance. Her eyes dropped to study her shoes, not entirely sure what else to say, especially to such a cute guy. At that, her cheeks turned even redder. +~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+ @Savi Hearing the shout behind him made Alastair pause, glancing back as the girl ran after him. As she stated he might know the owner of Bard then began trying to name the man, Alastair frowned. ”Sebastian?” He supplied, not really believing that was who she was talking about. Besides, Sebastian didn’t like dogs, loathed them even. His brother was more of a cat person to be honest. He has never liked dogs but he liked them even less after one killed his cat when he was ten years old. After that Sebastian has never liked canines and even went so far as to buy an apartment that didn’t allow dogs so Alastair or Estelle couldn’t get one. So there was no way Sebastian was the dog’s owner; that would be crazy talk.

Adelisa's eyes lit up at the name. "Yes! That was it! He said to hold the dog here until his family became of age to move out and buy him. He didn't seem... exstatic about the dog, but... yeah." She smiled at him. "Though, you seem of age..." She looked over her shoulder at the dogs as they barked louder. "Well, it was nice... yelling for you?" She giggled softly and looked back at him. "I've got to get back to work. It was nice meeting you!"

@ScarlettWaters16 Pete nodded but paddled after her before he followed her lead. He was not very graceful on his board but he was fine as he went along. He managed to appear graceful in front of the girl and stay on the board. "I know! Isn't it great?" He said until the wave stopped and he got back on his board. "So no siblings? That must be so very boring." He said looking sad. "So what brings you here? I mean I have never seen you around this area." @XxLyraxX Jason looked worried as well. He was not all that great at small talk. "It is so great to meet you." He said looking at his clock. "Well I am late for work at my dad's hardware shop but uhh..Where were you off to before I collided with you?" He asked clearly curious.

"Um, well you could come with me and have brunch, but that's only if you want to I mean. Oh and this is for you too." She said, holding out the bag with the cuff inside to him. "I don't really have a use for it and I think it suits you, if you don't like it I can always return it. But um yea, I was just going to get food if you wanted to come with." Biting her lip she looked down at the pavement.

"That sounds great, miss." He took the bag gently and shouldered it, trying it on. "I like it. Thank you very much. Very generous." He noticed his cheeks starting to get a bit warm, but he did his best to ignore it and look relaxed. He didn't get gifts a lot, so this was sort of touching. There was a small pause that he really did not want to get awkward, so he kept talking. "So. Um...did you have a place in mind before those arrogant pigs started following you?"

@Savi Alastair felt surprise flood through him and stood there for several more moments after the girl bid him farewell and returned to her job. His blue eyes were staring into space, mind trying to wrap around this new bit of information he had just received. Sebastian bought a dog for Estelle and him? He just couldn’t believe it. He wondered why his older brother had kept this a secret all this time. Could he have been waiting until the twins came of age, like the girl said? Estelle and Alastair’s eighteenth birthday was still another month from then. Still lost in his thoughts he turned and began to slowly make his way down the street towards his workplace, filing this information away to tell his twin later. @Avanhelsing Upon hearing the boy’s question Estelle glanced up. ”I uh…work as a w-waitress at The Silver Dragon just down the road from here.” She answered. She then bit her lip, guilt washing through her. She had made him late? She hoped he didn’t get into too much trouble over it, it was make her feel even worse than she currently was.

Adelisa smiled at the puppies and started her daily conversations with them: "have you been good?" "Do you want a treat?" "Such a good puppy!" Of course, these conversations were all one sided, but in the end Adelisa thought dogs were much better than people. People were much too complicated and everyone had a vendetta against someone. She much preferred a drooling, barking, animal that gives unconditional love than someone who loved to be in the middle of drama and always wanted more than she could give.

@Avanhelsing "Nah, it isn't that bad. I get more presents that most kids with siblings do," Gwen says with a grin, shaking some water from her hair. "I always come out here, mostly to practice I guess. I have loved surfing ever since I was little and have always wanted to make a living out of it. I always enter competitions, that way I can compete in something that I love." She smiles at him. "Anyways, I probably mostly come after you do. I've never seen you or your brother here before, so you both must leave before I get here." She runs a hand through her ponytail, squeezing out any remaining water. "So what made you decide to come back today?" ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Gideon jerks his wheel to the right, just in front of the beach. He did not feel like going today, especially after that horrible coffee house incident. He heads toward his apartment and pulls into the parking lot. He quickly parks his nice car away from the rest of the cars and walks up to his room. He throws his gym clothing on a chair and fall onto the bed, yelling with frustration into his pillow. He sighs and blinks slowly.

"Um.. Is the Silver Dragon okay with you?" She asked, biting her lower lip. "I've been surfing most of the morning and the Silver Dragon is a post surfing ritual for me." Ziri had never been this awkward in her life, what in the heck was going on with her. "I mean we can go somewhere else if you don't like diner food." It was like word vomit, horrible word vomit spewing from her mouth, she couldn't shut up.

"Sure, why not? I've never been and I've been wanting to see what it's like." He failed to notice her awkwardness, he was too focused on his own. Stop shifting your weight so much, he scolded himself mentally. Stop staring at her. Am I being friendly enough? Oh, Jesus help me. He laughed nervously.
