"do you like any particular genre?" she asked with a curious smile.
"Would you like to go get coffee and talk about it?" autumn asked not thinking about the implications of the question at first, but when it came to her she turned red.
"I mean...as a friend of course...or co-worker if you prefer...i mean...er...you dont have to..i just....ugh....im sorry" she said looking down in embaressment and frustration.

Noah stood to his feet and grabbed his bag. He seriously needed to shower, and felt that once he had done so, he’d be a lot more comfortable. As he grabbed his gear, he heard Summer reply to his question.
"Weeell, i can think of several really fun things that take a lot of energy....but they aren't school appropriate." She said with a grin.
Noah laughed and smiled as he walked back over to Summer with his bag hanging from his shoulder.
“ "But...let’s take a walk..." Summer offered and stood before taking a few steps and doing a backflip off the wall.
Noah smiled and stood for a moment pondering the idea.
“Alright, tell you what. Let me go take a shower and I’ll meet you outside of the girl’s locker room okay?” Noah asked as he kissed Summer on the cheek and rushed out of the gym.
Entering into the boy’s locker room, he headed directly towards the showers, stripping as he walked. By the time he got to the showers, he was completely nude. The water eased his tensed muscles and aching neck. He often got a massage after a workout, but he figured a good walk with Summer would help ease his mind of any worry. After showering, he changed into his jeans, tank top, and button up white shirt with exotic filigree on it that remained in his bag for now. He placed his duffel bag in his specific locker in the boy’s locker room and locked it. He grabbed his Gucci backpack and strapped it against his back. His Rainbow flip flops made noise the entire time he walked. He found himself standing outside of the girl’s locker room waiting for Summer.

"okay, ill meet you at the girls locker room love" she said with a smile. she watched until he entered the boys locker room then dashed over to the tread mill and jumped on at full speed, sprinting on it. She hadn't run while he had because of his earlier question about her over doing it. SHE personally didn't think she was...but she knew he would say otherwise. She ran until her legs felt like jello and still pushed herself before she figured she had no time before he would be coming out. She ran into the locker room and into the shower for about .3 seconds then dressed in a pair of shorts and a tank top and running shoes.
"oh baby i didnt mean to keep you waiting. Lets go" she said still a little out of breath.
Autumn almost did faint when Charles gave her a look that made her heart skip a beat...or five. She smiled back, because thats all she could manage. She laughed when at his 'shall we go' comment and nodded before curtsying and saying:
"We shall my good sir"
then headed towards the exit.

"Keep going, I still want that coffee,"
But she would note that next time she was in a competition with somebody she would lay off of it. Good for stufies, bad for dancing. The next song rang no bells, which she did not look forward to. Joey seemed fine with it though. Lucky, he actually played this game before. She locked it in then said,
"Next time, I'm picking the game."
The screen showed up and it read "2nd stage". She adjusted her feet again, noticing that in the last song she had moved them back quite a bit. How much time left until classes? Did she care? Not really. But she hoped that he dropped out soon, she wanted to compare schedules, see if they were apparently blocked off from each other this year too. Last year, she had absolutely no classes with one of her real friends, one that knew her before she got popular. It had made her mad but they had assigned them into dorms right next to each other. She moved in the middle of that school year though so now she was stuck with a vacant room next to her own.

" what is it you want to talk about"
She said down and looked at the others and wondered what they were talking about and also wondered if she would be accepted in to this little group , with her insecureites and her trust issues. She then looked away for them and Zane and looked at the her knee and the floor.

James chuckled as Zane spoke he had always spoken highly of Roma. "I'm just adjusting the system to work with all of the speakers here. This lounge becomes a rave club once night comes. And I'm the DJ for both the lounge and the rave." he finished adjusting the system and pressed play. Ultranumb by Blue Stahli started playing through the lounge. "And we have a go."
Charles walked beside Autumn with a charming smile. "So Playwrite tell me about yourself. I like to know those who I'm sure I will call friend." he cleared his throat. "I'm not over stepping my bounds at assuming we are friends am I."

"Friends...Yes...we are friends. Who knew meeting people as awesome as you would be so easy?" Autumn laughed.
"What do you want to know?" Autumn asked, turning her attention to the question hanging in the air.
"I'm 18. I'm one of 3 almost identical girls. Summer, Winter and...well me Autumn. My parents had a bad sense of humor and named us all after seasons, because our last name is Seasons." she smiled absently at the thought as she gave him all the shallow details of herself.

James started a playlist and walked away from his computer. "Yeah it's a okay gig looking forward to tonight when I can make this place rockin." he tapped his foot to the beat. "So Roma how did you two meet. He only said you helped him through his mothers uh death but not much before it." He glanced over to Zane who was talking to the goth girl.

"My dad died a little wile ago...." She said not really wanting to get into details.
"But my mom is great, and she met a beautiful woman who she is currently staying with in Africa" she said with a smile that was basically to cover up her sadness.

As Noah and Summer walked around campus, they talked about whatever was on their mind. Noah could only smile as the two walked. He talked about his job, and his parents. He talked about wanting to be normal, and how his parents treated him as if he were the most precious thing they had. Of course, he loved their affection and attention, but sometimes it was a little much. He talked about how he hadn't seen them in over a month, but they kept sending him money in order to keep him occupied with whatever he wanted. Sighing, he looked around as he found himself standing in front of the lounge. He had no clue how they had got there, but apparently the talk they had shared was a good way to relieve stress.
"Babe, you hungry?" Noah asked with a smirk.
As he looked into the lounge, he noticed Nicolai and some guy talking. Shaking his head, he waved to get Nicolai's attention. Surprisingly, it worked. Nicolai and Tyler walked over to Noah and Summer.
"Hey Summer, how are you?" Nicolai asked as he hugged Summer and then hugged Noah, "this is Tyler, he's a musician, and quite a good one at that. Anyways, we're about to go get something to eat. Do you care to join us?"

"I'm not really hungry but ill chill with you guys" Summer said with a cheery smile as she lied through her teeth. Her stomach practically screamed at her for food, all she had had today was an apple, and a small one at that. She took Noah's hand with a grin and tugged him along.
Autumn frowned.
"I do...cherish the memories i mean...im sorry about your parents though....but it was good you had friends to help." Autumn said with a sad smile. Then she shook herself out of her memories and smiled a real smile.
"What about you, spill the beans partner" she said with a laugh as she watched him, her eyes sparkling with laughter.

When things couldn't get any worse, he heard the one thing he didn't want to hear. The high pitched shriek of a whistle and the yell of, "Wallace! What in the world are you doing! You're going to be on bench this year if you keep wasting your time like this. Now get over here!" Joey cringed when he heard that, but kept in the game.
"Coach, I can't stop now I'm going to win. Just give me a few more minutes, please!"
The slightly overweight man in a nice suit just stared at his back with a look of confusion. "Wallace, whose the coach here that has complete power over when you play and for how long! I'm giving you one more chance until I cut you from the roster."
Joey felt so much inner conflict, win this bet and get cut from the basketball team, or lose to a girl and have to live with that but still make the team. After what seemed like an hour of decision making in a few seconds, he stepped off the pad said to Kristina, "I guess I'll see you tomorrow for coffee." He walked out of the arcade with his head looking at the ground, defeated twice today probably by the same person. His coach followed close behind him, "If your parents found that you were wasting your time like that, they'd have done worse things than I could have." Joey didn't listen, this was a pretty bad blow to him.

Going over to the punching bag game she put in a quarter and hit the thing as hard as she could, imagining the coaches face. She had made the scoreboard go well past a thousand but didn't care. She was told that Girl's P.E. was using the gym today so she would let off some steam then. Leaving the arcade she took one last look at Joey and then ran to her dorm, grabbing her schedule and realizing she had P.E. as her first class. Good thing they got showers. She grabbed a blue Nike drawstring bag and put in a pair of blue athletic shorts and a red V-neck. Then she found her white and blue tennis shoes and stuffed those in her bag too. When she finished she ran to the locker room.

Chi had never been a healthy girl, or for that matter been healthy at all. She had just gotten out of the hospital, and now at the thought of her having to go back scared him.
"Alright kid, calm down, what do you mean by 'attack'? And next time, watch where your going, I could of crushed you falling." The man said with a sigh.
"She's normally sick, and she just got out of the hospital and hasn't taken her meds yet..." Craig said, scratching his head, worried. Just as he said that, a blue haired girl stumbled into wall to wall, panting hard with a feverish look on her face.
"C-Craig...w-were missing classes..." Chi whinced as she stumbled fast and unsteadily into a blonde haired boy, passing out quickly.
"CHI!" Craig yelled out worriedly as the coach just turned around and began to get out his phone. "Go take her to the nurse, quickly. I'll see if ... Craig can give me a family member's phone number and they can drop off her meds." The coach said, looking down towards Joey whie Craig bit his lip, not wanting to leave his sister.
