He has a huge crush on The Optimist

Personality: He's a total nerd. He's into the whole sci-fi thing, and he loves science. He loves algebra, and he's usually happy. However, he isn't perky. He's just a positive thinker, but that doesn't make him perky or hyper.

High school relationships:

The Optimist:They're pretty close friends, and he has a huge crush on her, and those feelings still remain.

The Pessimist:He thinks she's pretty, but a bit too negative for his liking. He likes her as a friend, but they never did talk much.

The Romantic One:She's his sister, so of course he loves her. Sometimes he wishes she was more relaistic instead of a naive, hopless romantic.

The Flirt:He doesn't like her. She's flirtatious, and it's a total turn off for him. She makes him want to gag.

The Fun One:He thinks he's cool, and he knows his sister kind of likes him, so he hopes he doesn't hurt her.

The Charming One:Jamison knows Karsey is in love with him, but he can tell that The Charming One doesn't feel the same, and that just kind of breaks his heart.

The Outcast:He is Jamison's best friend. They're both different, and it kind of connects them, that's why they're such close friends.

The Party Animal:He's a bit too much of a partier for Jamison's liking, but he gets along with him, only because Karsey is his friend.

The Jock:Jamison thinks she's a bit too bitchy, however, she's still cool. She's confident, and for some reason, Jamison finds her attractive because of it.

So begins...

Karsey Lynnette Kane

Image




Karsey rolled her suit cases behind her as she walked up to the huge, four story building. LA University. She was so excited to start a new life. This was a new chapter in her book of life. She would meet new people, and everyone from highschool, whom she still thought of to this very day, would no longer sit around in her mind. It would be in a file in her mind labeled: Past.
The only one who would remain in her life would be her older brother, Jamison, who just started college last year. He'd been in the same grade as Karsey throughout elementary school, junior high, and high school, but he started college last year.

She practically skipped into the building, and a lot of students were roaming around. She realized it must be their lunch break or study hall. Karsey looked around in hopes of seeing Jamison, but all the oxygen she had was suddenly taken from her when she saw the boy she'd fallen in love with all those years back, in sophomore year. The boy she still loved to this day. Joseph Wright. There he stood, at the front desk in the lobby of the university, recieving his schedule. He really hadn't changed one bit.

Karsey panicked, not wanting him to see her, so she looked away, in hopes of hiding her face, but then she saw at least three others that she recognized. Sophia Hartley, that total downer, the negative Nelly. The girl who despised Karsey for how "conceited" she is. And then there was Sophie Devero. That little flirtatious brat. Karsey hated her, and well, seeing here just made Karsey want to gag. But the one other person she saw was her old best friend. Chris Lightning.

"Chrissy!" She yelled out, running up to him, and she practically jumped into his arms. He was the one person she was actually excited to see.

Jamison looked around for a moment, in hopes of find his sister, and that's when he saw someone he hadn't expected to see. Lillian Androva. The bitchy, athletic girl from high school that he had a crush on. And then he looked around again, trying to find Karsey. Maybe finding Karsey was just a cover-up to keep from making eye-contact with Lillian. Then he saw someone else he hadn't seen since highschool. Maria Dunn. And then two people walked in through the entrance of the building. Jonathan Smithers, Jamison's old high school best friend and Ronan Walsh, the party animal, whom he thought was a bit too carefree, and then he heard someone yell, "Chrissy!" He turned around to see his little sister hugging the life out of Chris Lightning.

"Karsey!" Jamison grinned, and he walked over to her and Chris. He was sure all the shouting would attract most of the others that went to high school with them. They would surely recognize their voices, right?

Jamison pulled Karsey into a tight hug, and she quickly hugged him back, "I missed you Flynnie-boy!" she squealed happily.

Jonathon was reading a book walking through the hall, he wasn't paying attention to anyone or anything until he heard a.... strangely familiar voice yell "Chrissy!"
Almost running into a wall, Jonathon stopped quickly and looked around. He immediately noticed the people in the center of the commotion. "Shit..." slipped from his mouth. "No way." he muttered and shook his head.
All he wanted was to go through college quietly, do his thing, and then move on with life.
Besides hanging out with Jamison and Sophia, he hated Highschool. Although he was strangely happy to see everyone.
He leaned against the wall, and put his book away. "Maybe Ill just go say hi to Soph and James and then leave... maybe" he said quietly, staring at the scene from afar. He didn't really enjoy the company of most of the people in that group.
And like usual, he was nervous to interact with them after all the years have past.

Maria was at the counter next to her old high school acquaintance, when all of a sudden she heard the familiar voice of Karsey scream at Jonathon. Sure enough, right behind her, was Jamison. Her one crush she'd had through high school, and still has. She's always kind of liked him, as they grew as friends, starting then. But, the one thing she wasn't optimistic about was his feelings. She never could tell if he liked her, so.. she just stayed her usual optimistic self, and went on with her life. Besides, the other girls had to have liked him, right?

Now, they were in college, and she thought she'd gotten away from them. Apparently not. Maybe she can still transfer... Nope. That'd be too late now, since the semester has practically started, and the freshly printed paper in her hand read of her classes for the year. "Hmm..." She leaned against the table, where she sat at by the window, next to the desk where the clerk she'd just gotten her schedule from sat. "Let's see.. Honors Human Anatomy, check. Honors Physics... check." She went through each class, and made sure she had at least one of each common subject, and finalized her schedule.

She hoped Jamison wouldn't cause her much trouble these next long years..

Ronan had already placed his belongings in his room in the third floor with a great view to the court yard, and was oblivious to the geek's presence, almost bumping into him as they entered together. "Chris!" Ronan called out, and seeing Karsey as well, he laughed an evil laughter; "You too?" he said and looked her over while flinging his hand around his old pal's neck.

Things were finally starting to perk up. Lillian wore a pair of white capris and a orange tank top as she strolled down the hallways of LA University. For the past month, she had been on campus when it was still a ghost town. Bright and early, when the sun had yet to break over the horizon, she was out with with the team doing laps in the pool. Afternoon they had dry land, and typically ended the day with an evening endurance or sprint set. Though the days left her tired, dried, and chlorine smelling, she loved every minute of it. There was a certain semblance of pride swimming for the LA University Wolverines.

"Lilly!" The brunette turned and spotted one of her teammates waving at her. In a few seconds, she was by her side. "Finally getting some traffic in here! I love you girls, but variety's always nice."

Lillian snorted as she continued to make her way to the atrium where schedules were handed out. She made hers a few weeks ago; this was merely a formality of confirming the classes. "I couldn't agree more," she said. "First meet's coming up soon, Sam. Excited for it?"

The blonde smirked as she toyed with the cuff of her warm ups. "You got on the relay team! The 50 and the 100 freestyle individuals and anchor. Claire probably hates you."

"I was faster. I honestly could give two shits less about what she feels. You took Amy's breaststroke event from her. I think she thinks you're a bitch."

Sam laughed as the two entered the atrium. It was packed with incoming students. Strolling through the crowd, Lillian glared at a pair of first years who were clearly ogling her and Sam. It was something she had gotten used to given the attire swimmers wore. The damn things were a pain to get into as well.

"Anyways, Mike wanted to meet up for a bit. So, I'll leave you too it Ms. Androva! Don't get into too much trouble - attitude, girl! Oh, you going that frat party this weekend? One of the brothers has been begging me to get you to come. It'll be fun?"

"I'm sure I can find something better to do then fend off sex-crazed drunks."

"Lillian..."

"Get going before your boyfriend comes sniffling around for you. Oh, tell Mike to seriously consider changing his get up. LA's hardly a place for hick town flannels."

Lillian shrugged off Sam's defensive comment as she melded back into the crowd. She went up to the registration booth and gave the receptionist her student ID. When the thing was printed, she looked at the class schedule: Chemistry, Biology, Nutritional Sciences, and Literature. Solid schedule she thought to herself.

Turning back intending to go get some lunch, she caught sight of several very familiar faces. Her feelings were mixed. She felt happy yet reluctant at the same time.

Spotting Karsey and Jamison, a grin broke across her lips as she made her towards them. "I can't believe I have to deal with you bunch again," she said though amusement seeped through her words rather than contempt. "It's good to see you two! Really. Seen anyone else from high school?"

She looked at the others in the circle of 'friends' and nodded towards Chris and Ronan. Her grin turned into a smirk. "Now here are two faces I never thought I'd see again. Planning to throw some mad ragers Ronan?"

Air-headed as always when in crowded places, Ronan left his attention from Karsey to Lillian the moment she said his name, and he stepped back in a playful manner to join them all in the emerging circle. He made sure to have them all in his view when answering the sporty girl; "Of course! I've already come up with a plan to have the most awesomest party," he lowered his voice and hunched goofy close to them as if no one else but them to hear; "We gotta celebrate the starting year," straightening up his back and calling out higher he said; "Am I right? Chris! It'll be perfect," he finished looking suspiciously around; "but I can't speak more of it here." A foxy smirk appeared on his lips.

Jonathon seemed to go out of it for a moment, thinking of what he should do. He decided and blinked for a moment, but saw Sophia walking towards him. 'Oh thank god' he thought and smiled.
"Hey if it isn't my favorite red head! No way you go here too" he chuckled and stood up from the wall he was leaning against.
"Seems like everyone's going here" he laughed. "James is here, Karseys here... Lillians here" he rolled his eyes.
'Happy fun times' he thought.

Karsey Lynnette Kane

Image


Karsey's eyes widened when she saw Lillian, and her smile brightened, "Hey Lilly!" she exclaimed, and she gave her a quick hug. Then she heard Joseph's voice, and she smiled even brighter.

She smiled when she saw Ronan, "Ron!" she grinned, giving him a hug.

"Joseph!" Karsey squealed, and she jumped into his arms, hugging him tightly. She buried her head in the crook of his neck, somthing she'd always done when she hugged him. She just found it to be quite comfortable when she rested her head there, "I missed you so much," she mumbled.

Karsey let go of Joseph, not wanting him to think she was strange for hugging him to long. She went back to hugging Chris. Even thought Joseph was her best friend ever, she really missed Chris too. They were constantly hanging out, and it just felt nice to be able to hug him right now.




Jamison Flynn Kane

Image


Jamison smiled when he saw Lillian, and he pulled her into a hug, "Hey, Lil, how's it going?" he asked, using the nick name he'd given her.

He then noticed Maria, and he gave her a heart-warming smile. Jamison walked over to her, and he pulled her into a tight hug, "Maria," he said softly, "I didn't expect to see you here."

It felt nice to be reunited with all of his old friends, but seeing Maria was probably the best thing to happen to him all day.

Ronan lifted his arms as if to shut everyone up; "Alright, alright listen up. I know we're all busy and all finding our nests today, but make sure to meet up at the library at eight o'clock tonight. I'm so happy to see ya'll again. All of you who ever know you are somebody," nodding at everyone of them with a reassuring look, he grinned at the end; "I gotta go to bizzmania and fix you all a little somethin' somethin'." He winked at Karsey and slapped Chris on his shoulder before waving to the other as he headed further inside the building towards the offices and storages.

Chris let out an 'oof' and held his shoulder as Ronan walked away and he laughed softly. "Well, I guess I gotta get to my room anyways. I'll see you guys at 8." He smiled and waved, walking towards the dorms.

"J-Jamison?" She had stood, and whirled around, meeting the boy face-to-face.

"Maria, I didn't expect to see you here."

"Haha, that makes two of us, then." She smiled brightly and hugged him back tight, breathing in that wonderful scent he always smelled of. "I'm kinda surprised I'm here too, but, I didn't know you and Karsey were coming here..." She scratched the back of her neck, embarrassed in a way, and she looked down to hide her slight blushing. "I see the gang's back together... " She sighed, and smiled, hiding her honestly hurt feelings that no one had noticed her until they disbanded. But, she could have went over there she guessed.

She popped her head back up meeting his gorgeous eyes, they were so dreamy. She wanted to stare at them all day.. but she quickly snapped out of her daydream, and held her smile. "Where's your dorm? Mine's over there in the um.." She brought her paper up to her eye level. "400's. 404, to be exact." She then stuffed the paper in her pocket after neatly folding it, and smiled at him.

"So, umm, what classes do you have? Maybe we have some classes together."

"M-maybe.." She seemed to be shrinking every year, only coming up to about Jamison's shoulder. She quickly took out the paper she had just folded, and scanned it. "I mainly have core classes, and then a few about medical things.. which I need." She scratched her chin briefly, then watched Jamison scan it.

"It really depends on what you're majoring in though. I have mainly medical classes since I want to be a Physical Therapist, as I have all through high school." She chuckled, and rubbed her arms nervously.

"Hey James." Jonathon smiled. "If you don't mind me calling you that still" he laughed, sliding his hands into his pockets.
"The gangs all here eh...." he sighed and nodded then popped his lips. "Not like Id be associating with them" he mumbled
"Uh, I was actually gonna start chatting with Sophia" he smiled and pointed to her. "What about you? Not to sound stalker or anything but you seemed pretty awkward chatting with Maria over there..." Jonathon snickered.

'Hey, if it isn't my favorite red head! No way you go here too,' Jonathon beamedonce Sophia was in front of him. 'Seems like everyone's going here. James is here, Karseys here... Lillians here.'

Sophia hadn't even heard half of what he said. She kept her attention focused on the commotion around her; Karsey, Chris, Joseph, Maria, Sophi, Lilian, and Ronan too? It was all too much. Within a few seconds, Sophia was wiping out her bottle of asprins. She shook the bottle until four, small pills dropped into her hands and she chugged all of them at once into her mouth. Before she retrieved the bottle of asprins, she caught sight of Jamison heading their way and she could've sworn her heart dropped immediately. He just so.. beautiful in a way that was indescribable. Sophia knew that boys weren't beautiful, but this particular boy was. And Sophia- without thinking- threw the bottle of asprin at Jonathon to get rid of before Jamison was standing no more than five feet in front of her. He seemed to ignore her, but those five feet meant something to her. 'Hey bro, what's up?' she heard him say to Johnathon. Hearing his voice had Sophia pinching herself to restrain from squealing. Afterwards, Jonathon had said something back that Sophia couldn't really comprehend until he mentioned he in the conversation. 'Uh, I was actually gonna start chatting with Sophia.' At that, Sophia swallowed- hard at the attention she was given that she nearly forgot the pills; now stuck in her throat. She muffled a cough. Two. The pills still wouldn't budge, so she stood there with her lips clasped together and her face growing flushing tomato red.

"We have biology together, but that's all. Eh, it's better than none at all, but that's only one hour to stare at your pretty face."

Maria blushed wildly, and smiled big at his comment. "Jamison, I was wondering if.." She looked down as he stood there. "maybe we could go find our dorms and..." She looked up, her heart ripping out of her chest almost. He had walked away to Sophie. It was always Sophie.. or one of the other girls he seemed to have an eye for when they talked.

"Bye Jamison.." She muttered, and ran a hand through her hair, looking pretty beat down. If her crush ignoring her wasn't enough, as she walked out of the building to go find her dorm alone, some random man appeared out of nowhere, holding a slushie in one hand, the hand that ran right smack into her chest, spilling cold, blue, sticky slushie all over Maria's favourite outfit.

"What a lovely day.." She sighed, and continued on, after helping the man pick up what they could of the slushie's remains.

"Oh crap I didn't even realize" Jonathon looked over at Sophie with a concerned expression. He patted her back, but not too hard to make it worse. 'What could she possibly be choking on??' he thought analyzing her face.
'And why would she just stand there? I would be more than happy to help, obviously! Well, then again I don't have water in my bag... just a flask. Maybe I wouldn't be such a help... thanks James' he thought.

'Oh crap I didn't even realize.'Jonathon said. Sophia instinctively felt light headed; however, Jonathon whacked her on her back nearly knocking the wind out of her, then she soon seen Jamison slip out one of his water bottles and handed it her way. 'Here, I haven't drank out of it yet,' then he smiled. The smile that usually gotten her heart thumping. Without hesitation, she took the water bottle and gulped down three big gulps before she took a break to catch her breath. 'Are you alright?' she heard him ask. She looked up in time to catch him staring at her, intently. To her surprise, she returned the gaze and seemed to get lost within his brown eyes before she realized she had been staring for too long.

She looked away, more quickly than she should've and moved a loose strand behind her ear. "You didn't have to do that,"she mummbled at least loud enough to be heard. "I mean, you could've. But I mean you didn't have to. I mean..pshh, it would've been a nice thing to do. Like, if you didn't. I wouldv'e died..." Someone shoot me. she thought as she realized she'd been babbling like an idiot.

Jonathon furrowed his brows. "Ummm are you ok?" he chuckled. "Your acting really weird" he crossed his arms staring at her confused. 'Soph has a changed a lot then it seems like...' he thought.
Jonathon never liked change. Everyone else was always changing around him, constantly. He always stayed the same.
He immdiately felt uncomfortable and cleared his throat "You two can catch up, I think Im gonna head to the library..."
Jonathon rubbed the back of his head awkwardly.

It'd been silent for who knew how long, until Jonathon finally spoke. 'Ummm are you ok?' he said, chuckling. 'Your acting really weird.' A few minutes passed. Two. "You two can catch up, I think I'm gonna head to the library..." Then he started to walk away leaving the two alone; however, Sophia wanted nothing then to be left alone with..'him.' "I gotta go," she whispered without meeting Jamison's eyes, and was soon rushing along beside her best friend where she should be; her luggages rolling from behind. "You know what, Johnny?" she started, taking out her usual bag of sour skittles. "I feel pretty darn good about myself-for once. Made it in the morning, and from there I've only embarrassed myself only one time." She rummaged through her skittles in hopes of finding a green one, poped it into her mouth, then raised up the bag; offering Jonathon one with a smile.
