Distinct Markings
Arabelle has a small scar on her knee, from falling on the pavement as a kid, and a birth mark on the tip of her pinky, which oddly resembles the shape of a heart. She has two piercings in each of her ears, including her cartilage in her left ear. She has no immediate plans to get any tattoos, however; at least not at the moment.

Appearance
Standing just about 5”4, Arabelle is more on the short, fragile side of life, and it shows in her sweet and smooth curves, which form flawlessly to create the perfect figure. Although she doesn’t have the curves of a model, she could certainly be one, weighing barely over 110 pounds, on a good day. An unusual hazel colour for eyes accent her light blonde hair, which flows naturally in perfect curls down past her waist, although she tends to wear it straightened all the same.

Style wise, Arabelle tends to dress in the more ‘hipster’ style of life, sticking with waist high shorts, and floral printed tops, layered with a leather jacket, and Toms or boots, depending on the day. Arabelle is a huge fan of heels, and if given the chance will wear them with just about everything. Floral printed heels are another big plus for her, along with beanies and bags. She’s also a huge fan of accessories, her favourites being that of feather earrings, necklaces, and rings.

Likes

∞Her Acoustic Guitar∞
“I live with my guitar; it follows me wherever I go, regardless of where or who I’m with.”
∞Writing Music and Poetry∞
“I live for writing music and poetry. Usually, the words just come to me at the most random times, so I try and keep my book and a pen by me at all times.”
∞Floral prints∞
“I’m not afraid to admit that I am a bit of a hipster. Anything floral, shirts, skirts, shorts, all of it; I love it.”
∞Flirty girls∞
“Although I’m still unsure of my sexuality, I like it when a girl isn’t afraid to come up to me, and flirt.”

Dislikes

∞Loud music∞
“Okay, to clarify, I don’t mind loud music as long as it’s good loud music..”
∞Being called a child∞
“I feel like everyone always sees me as a child, and it drives me crazy. I think after what I’ve been through I deserve to be seen as an adult, or at least somewhat.”
∞Minnie∞
“…Nothing I’ve ever done has seemed to live up to her. Always prettier, getting into the best college, getting good grades, getting the best guys...Sometimes, I wonder what the hell my parents were even thinking when they decided to have a second child? The first one was obviously enough in their eyes.”
∞Tattoos∞
“I love to look at them on other people, but honestly, the thought of it just seems too painful. Piercings, on the other hand, I could deal with that!”
∞Rap music∞

“I will never understand the point of it, and really, I don’t want too. You can’t understand what they’re saying half of the time, anyways.”

Secrets
I| Secretly has a crush on Christopher.
II| She’s really into girls more than she is boys.
III| She’s gone out, behind her family and sisters knowing, experimenting with things she probably shouldn’t have.

Personality
Arabelle is really one of a kind. She’s sweet, funny, but also shy. She’s always had a hard time talking to new people, as she suffers from Social Anxiety Disorder, which is simply a fear of being around others and being judged by those people.
She’s a very loyal friend, though, to those that she considers a friend, and would do anything for a friend, or her family, even if she sometimes doesn’t show it. Arabelle tends to keep her feelings bottled up, and they pour out at the most random, and usually inappropriate times.

History
Growing up, Ara was always seen as the ‘shadow’ of her sister. Nothing that she ever did was good enough, and even now, she feels that way. Attending high school now, Ara never bothered with love and relationships, because she constantly questioned her sexuality and wasn’t sure who she was. Even now that she knows, she’s always secretly had a thing for Christopher, and kept to the hope that maybe something would happen between the two of them.
Dealing with the family problems hasn’t helped anything, so hearing about the trip that Minnie and her friends had been planning for so long, she knew that it would be the perfect time to ruin the time for Minnie, and make her feel how she’s been feeling her entire life, even after she went off to college.


Theme Song
Shadow||Ashlee Simpson
I was six years old
When my parents went away
I was stuck inside a broken life
I couldn't wish away
She was beautiful
She had everything and more
And my escape was hiding out and running for the door
Somebody listen please
It used to be so hard being me

Living in the shadow
Of someone else's dream
Trying to find a hand to hold but every touch felt cold to me
Living in a nightmare
A never-ending sleep
But now that I am wide awake
My chains are finally free
Don't feel sorry for me

All the days collided
One less perfect than the next
I was stuck inside someone else's life and always second best
Oh, I love you now 'cause now I realize
That it's safe outside to come alive in my identity
So if you're listening
There's so much more to me you haven't seen

Living in the shadow
Of someone else's dream
Trying to find a hand to hold but every touch felt cold to me
Living in a nightmare
A never-ending sleep
But now that I am wide awake
Then I can finally be
Don't feel sorry-

Mother, sister, father, sister, mother
Everything's cool now
Mother, sister, father, sister, mother
Everything's cool now
Oh, my life is good
I've got more than anyone should
Oh, my life is good
And the past is in the past

I was living in the shadow
Of someone else's dream
Trying to find a hand to hold but every touch felt cold to me
I'm living in a new day
I'm living it for me
And now that I am wide awake
Then I can finally be
Don't feel sorry for me
Don't feel sorry, don't feel sorry for me

Living in, living in, living in the shadow
Living in, living in, living in a new day

So begins...

Minette raked her slender fingers through his long brown curls as a small sigh drifted from her lips. She was completely exhausted, but it was all worth it. She was in the city of love, so she couldn't complain. Her eyes scanned the airport, watching the plethora of people scurry to their destinations and kiss their loved ones. A faint smile found its way onto her face before she allowed her eyes to drift to her little sister, Ara. There was a tense silence between the two, to Minnie's dismay. She wasn't very pleased with the fact that she and Ara couldn't have that sisterly bond that she always yearned for, however, Minette still had hope, and who knew maybe this vacation could allow them to bond.

Anxiously, Minnie fiddled with the sleeve of her gray shirt. She glanced at her purse, thinking about the orange container that was filled to the brim with pills that would keep her as sane as humanly possible. She hated her anxiety and felt as though it hindered her appearance to most people. In her mind, appearances were key, and she refused to be looked down upon for something that she had no control over, so that is why she tried in vain to hide her weakness. To take her mind off of her flaw, she fished out her iPhone and checked the E-mails between her and her pen pal, Damien Ackerman. She was pleased that she would finally be meeting her confidant in the flesh for the first time, it was all so exciting. She tapped on the screen, sending him an update on their travels.

Hey Damien,

Finally made it to Paris! I can honestly say that I'm too excited for words. Can't wait to see you in person.


Hitting send, Minette lifted her head, spotting her best friends, Lily and Chris reaching the exit. A large smile replaced the melancholy frown on her face. "Hey!" She beamed, dropping her suitcases to practically tackle Lily. Her small arms wrapped around her friend's slim waist and her lips placed a small peck on both of Lily's cheeks, noting the scent of champagne on her breath before she gave Chris the same treatment, but was careful not to seem too affectionate. Their multiple encounters were not lost on her, and she prayed that no bad blood would brew between them. She still felt guilty...

"I'm so glad to see you guys again." Her gaze landed on her sister, not wanting her to feel too left out. "You remember my sister, Elsa, right?"

Minnie could feel the rhythmic thump of the bass shaking her bones as she moved deeper into the club. Her heart was pounding to the enticing tune. She had forgotten how addictive the night life could be, but now it was all coming back to her. She glanced behind he at Lily, Chris, and Elsa, a large smile on her pretty face. The familiar scent of sweat from the multiple of gyrating bodies was assaulting her nostrils, but she ignored it as she pushed her way to the bar. It was here that she planned on meeting Damien face to face, and she was both extremely excited and nervous. "White Russian," she ordered. As soon as her drink was in hand, she turned and eyed the club. It was much grander than the clubs that she was used to. It was a step up to say the least. Grinning at her companions, Minette offered a toast, raising her glass and beaming at the others. She made a mental note to check Elsa's drink before she even thought about consuming it. "A toast to new beginnings and the Triple Threats!" Clanging her glass against theirs, Minnie took a large sip of his drink. Her brown eyes flicked across her surroundings. She pinched at her dress absently, thinking about how her encounter with Damien would play out. She was sure that it would go well, but Minette was the type that worried too much for her own good. She took a deep breath, deciding that she'd attempt to look for him later.

"Let's dance," she told her friends then allowed her eyes to fall on Elsa. "No drinking, okay?" With that, she grabbed Lily's hand and Chris' arm. "You should come with us, Elsa," she suggested with a friendly grin.

Lily inhaled deeply, taking in the heady scent of alcohol, people and excitement. Her body throbbed with bass as it thudded through the room. People were all sides of her, constantly colliding with her and brushing past her. She could feel them against all her bare flesh, most of her body hardly covered by the scrap of material barely worth calling a dress. Lots of people would be scared by the atmosphere, but not Lily. This was where Lily felt at home. In college, she seemed to spend all her time partying, and each one tried to be bigger and better than the last. But nothing was too big for Lily. Nowhere made her uncomfortable, or made her think maybe she was taking it too far this time. This party was just like all the others. Except, she was here with her friends, which made this party better than any people threw at college, trying to impress her.

Lily watched Minnie shimmy through the club, dodging people and weaving through the crowds. Lily, Chris and Minnie’s little sister followed her towards the bar, which Lily was very much glad to see. As Minnie went to order for herself, Lily fell against the bar and waved flirtatiously in order to get the attention of a bartender.

“Something strong, and bitter,” Lily told him, not caring if he struggled to understand her English. “And did I say strong? Yeah, really strong,” she laughed to herself. Needless to say, this was not her first drink of the evening, let alone the day.

Thankfully, the bartender managed to get the gist of what she was trying to say and handed her a glass. Lily didn’t even hesitate to look at what was in it. She simply knocked back the liquid and put the glass back down.

“Another one, please,” she said, handing him money and collecting the drink to make a toast with Minnie. “To new beginnings and the Triple Threats!” Lily joined in, giggling.

"Let's dance," Lily heard Minnie say before quickly telling Elsa something. Then, her friend grabbed her arm and Lily pulled her towards the centre of the dance floor. But instead of paying Lily the attention she wanted, Minnie turned back towards her sister to say something. However, Lily had already been distracted enough to forget her slightly drunken annoyance towards Minnie for bringing her boring little sister with her and treating the kid like a five year old.

Lily had spotted a man stood at the edge, strangely attired as if he were out for a business dinner rather than frequenting a busy club at the heart of Paris’ nightlife. She glanced to his left and saw a sign for the V.I.P lounge. Now there was somewhere she certainly wanted to be. Older, wealthy men loved girls like her and she could definitely find herself a suitable man to spend the night with. She glanced back towards the man, wondering if his attire and position meant he was, in some way, to do with the V.I.P lounge and able to get her in. Without thought, Lily approached him and grabbed his tie, pulling him towards the crowds with her, and towards her friends, so she didn’t end up losing them completely.

When they had reached where she wanted to be, Lily pulled him towards her and began to dance. She looked the suit up and down clearly and then looked back up at him. “Come from a funeral?” she teased, laughing, not thinking for a minute he might not speak English.
