Welcome to Gossip Girl! .. The site ABOUT the Upper East Side, FOR the Upper East Side and BY the Upper East Side
You may live privileged lives, but someone amongst your group of friends is always busy blogging about your dirty little secrets (on gossip girl blog down below) - the problem is you don't know who has been betraying you. Could it be a familiar face or even an old friend.
The rumours are true, most of the time anyway, the site that exposes the lifes of Manhatten's Upper East Side, an the outsiders that want in.

(basically: Gossip Girl revolves around the privileged prep school teens on Manhattan's Upper East Side and the anonymous blogger, Gossip Girl, who provides them with the latest rumors about their highly exclusive inner circle)

You simply live your everyday lives in New York. Whether your from the Upper East Side (UES) or Brooklyn, theres no secrets with Gossip Girl, or is there. Thats for you to decide. Your life could consist on partying, meals, sleepovers, boyfriends, girlfriends, school, shopping, trying to fit in with the IT crowd, creating another group of friends (to try an be popular, etc), arguing, etc. Its again for you to decide.
You can post your own invatation to host a party, sleepover, dance, etc .. just pm me first if you wish to do so. You can choose who to invite and wh not too.

Who am i you ask? .. well my fellow gossip-ees thats a secret i'll never tell xoxo gossip girl

http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee100/jcardy/locations.jpg
Upper East Side:
*Starbucks Coffee Shop (http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee100/jcardy/starbucks.jpg)
*Central Park (http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee100/jcardy/Cenralpark.jpg)
*Bersage Hotel - can live there if you want - luxury apartments, etc (http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee100/jcardy/besagehotel.png)
*Leisure and activity center - pools, yoga, gym, spa (http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee100/jcardy/THESPA.jpg)
*Hair Salon (http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee100/jcardy/salon.jpg)
*Several designer shops - YOU CAN IMAGINE IT .. SUITS, GADGETS, BAGS, DRESSES, ETC, UNISEX (http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee100/jcardy/SHOPSMAIN.jpg)
*Seleisha Vander Woodsen's shop - designer clothes (http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee100/jcardy/SELEISHA.jpg)
*Rooftops - parties, etc (http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee100/jcardy/rooftop.jpg)
*Hayden's penthouse - only aloud there if invited by me (http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee100/jcardy/haydenpenthouse-1.jpg)
*Any other characters home - only aloud there if invited by character (http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee100/jcardy/ueshome.jpg)

Brooklyn:
*Art Gallery (http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee100/jcardy/gallery.jpg)
*Starbucks Coffee Shop (http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee100/jcardy/starbucks.jpg)
*Central Park (http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee100/jcardy/Cenralpark.jpg)
*Any other Brooklyn characters home - only aloud if invited by character (http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee100/jcardy/brooklynapartments.jpg)

Both UES characters and Brooklyn characters go to Upper East High School (http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee100/jcardy/highschool.jpg)
Brooklyn students are lucky to get in as it is mainly the rich kids bought into here.

The only difference between the Upper East Side(UES) and Brooklyn is the wealth. UES is a wealthy area full of rich people, etc. Brooklyn is the opposite to UES but it doesnt mean they're completely poor, unless you want your characters to be that way. And it doesnt mean that UES are rich stuck up snobs, again unless you want your characters that way.

Suggestions:
*To make the roleplay interesting and fun i suggest having some characters from Brooklyn and some from the Upper East Side. The reason being because we will then have a mixture of characters, personalities, class, etc.
*I also strongly suggest that not everything about your character is revealed all at once, due to the roleplay will get boring and die lol.
*Try and work your way up the social ladder - unpopular to popular, etc
*Post to gossip girl whenever you wanna ruin a characters reputation to make your character get better
*Host your own parties, sleepovers, etc
*So people start to get sspicous of your deepest secrets, act in a way you would so people are like whats up with him/her, etc

http://i295.photobucket.com/albums/mm143/picspot121/fhm-hayden-2.jpg
Name: Hayden Vander Woodsen
Age: 17 - just starting senior year
Upper East Side or Brooklyn: Upper East Side
Personality/Lifestyle: Hayden was born in a rich family; also very well-known. The Vander Woodsen's were very kind and gentle, but very popular. Being exposed to this publicity at such a young age, Hayden grew up selfish and a naive girl who knew that she could get whatever she wanted with a snap of her fingers, but now she is trying her hardest to be less selfish.
She is down to earth, fun and easy to get along with just dont get on her bad side. Hayden is Queen Bee of the social scene. She's an only child, she is the daughter of a fashion designer mother named Seliesha Vander Woodesn, her father is unknown to her.
Opportunities like fashion shoots seem to be handed to her on a silver platter.
The one thing to know about Hayden is that she always has the last laugh.
Secrets anyone knows: She uses her popular name to get whatever she wants from anyone, has been arrested before for drunken behaviour. Mother doesn't know any of this

[FurryPanda]

Name: Jordan Cline
Age: 17
UES or Brooklyn: Brooklyn
Personality/Lifestyle: Jordan is the sort of guy you meet and immediately want to hate, but just can't bring yourself to. Abrasive, tactless, short tempered and weird all describe him, but ask any of his friends and you hear honest, witty and free spirited. He is extremely creative and is fruitlessly trying to put together a band, with himself on vocals, but so far hasn't found anyone worth asking.

His parents are jack rich, but Jordan does not see any of that money as his parents prefer to invest it- in their retirement and Jordan's college education. As a result he lives in a three bedroom flat with mostly good-will furniture and the occasional multi thousand dollar painting and sculpture. He does not object to this arrangement, but he prefers to hide it when possible.

Secrets anyone knows: The only reason Jordan is successful in school is that all of his work is divvied up between a small legion of inexplicaby adoring fans.

Ive been thinking about a couple different characters so I need to decide on one :)

EDIT:
Name: Noelle Harrington
Age (17-19): 18
Upper East Side or Brooklyn: Upper East Side
Personality/Lifestyle: Known before as a huge party girl and flirt, Noelle has left the party scene and the Upper East Side after a recent event turned her world around. Her mysterious disappearance caused confusion between her Upper East Side friends and after a few months of being MIA, Noelle is finally coming back home.
Noelle has a younger brother, Chase who attends the same school and a father, who owns a chain of night clubs all around New York. Her mother, a news reporter died 10 years ago in a helicopter accident while doing a live broadcast for the News.
Any secrets that your friends already know (you went to rehab, cheated a lot, etc): Has stolen money for drugs and drink on numerous occasions from her father, lost her virginity to a bank manger 3 years ago in a bathroom, something (although they don’t know what) happened one night a few months ago to make Noelle leave town.

[jcardy]

alright your added LilAmy07
Thanks for joining

[Lenoba]

Gwen Everest

16

Upper East Side

A girl with no limits and morals, the one who talks to anything and anyone and always smiles; the one that is most likely to start a prank and then the first to apologize, young and not very smart, but not really sloppy, just selfish in a way.

Gwen is daughter of Simon Everest, you know, the one who won this incredible amount of money on the lottery? They moved here and his daughter is full of this whealthy nonsense, but well, boys seem to like her and she's got enough friends. She uses to hang out whole evening every day in the week with them, let it be a fashion show, shopping, a koncert, or simply chatting in a park.

Everyone know that Gwen had abortion last year and that the baby was Mr Michaels, who's a teacher in one of the schools near her.

[jcardy]

Thnx fro joining Lenoba =D

Just finished ammending the thread, i think everything is more understandable now lol.

[FurryPanda]

Name: Annabelle Lee (Annie to her freinds)
Age: 17
Location: Upper East Side
Personality/lifestyle: Annie is a very quiet person, and is painfully shy around guys, but once someone gets to know her, she is as talkative and insightful as the next person. She is a budding artist, having sold a few paintings to (small) museums, and this is a source of bottomless pride for her. In school she does fairly badly, because she can't bring herself to write down an honest opinion for criticism, so she steals her work. This has been happening since grade school and by now is just an idiosyncrasy of hers.

She lives with her mother in a spacious penthouse with her dog, Liberia, and spends most of her time either drawing city scapes or hanging out with her freinds.

Secrets that are known: her father does not live with her mother because he is a convicted arsonist who is serving out his sentence in a New Jersey prison.
She steals all her school work.

http://gi258.photobucket.com/groups/hh268/2RL932GJ5F/CherylCole.jpg
Name: Aubrey Parker
Age (depends on what year your character is in school):16
Upper East Side or Brooklyn: Brooklyn
Personality/ Lifestyle: Aubrey Parker is smart and amazingly pretty ... but is constantly being told she is not working to her full potential. She is also vulnerable, despite having it all together on the surface.
Given her beauty and personality, Aubrey enjoys a steady string of admirers. Despite the attention she receives from the opposite sex, Aubrey constantly longs for real romance. Aubrey is reserved with her secrets as she doesnt like constant attention revolved around her, she is now a dance teacher and likes to design her own clothes although she doesnt seem to have much luck within the making of them.
Aubrey grew up in a rich background, but decided to get away from it all due to the image she was proclaimed as, 'the rich spoilt brat' which she knew wasnt her .. and because of something bad that happened between her and her parents.
Any secrets that your friends already know: Aubrey recentley ran away from her parents, she now lives secretely under the name 'Aubrey Parker' to hide from her parents. She took some of there most priced posessions to get her own flat in Brooklyn, her flat is full of her clothes and reasonabley pricey furniture. Her real name is Cheryl Larter but only her friend Annabelle knows this, everyone else knows her as Aubrey

[Laughy]

Name: Vienna Brennan

Age (depends on what year your character is in school): 17

Upper East Side or Brooklyn: Upper East Side, of course.

Personality/Lifestyle: Vienna, and yes that is the name of a city, is a very fun, party girl. She lives by the motto, Life is too short to waste away sitting around, and this has often led to some messy situations. She doesn't always party though and the partying has been brought on by a very bad divorce between her parents when she was 12. She lives with her dad and is , you could say, a trust fund princess but with a very sharp mind. She may look not that bright but as they say things are not always what they seem. She is a very business savvy, entrepreneur and always has the best ideas for any event or venture. Also it is not always partying and thinking that is used to describe Vienna, she has often been described as Beautiful, a go-getter,a fashion plate and countless other things. And so to say, hanging with her is no trip for the not so brave.


Any secrets that your friends already know (you went to rehab, cheated alot, etc): She has a twin brother who lives with her mum in Boston.


http://i193.photobucket.com/albums/z1/pinkgirl4real/9109507cac.jpg

[jcardy]

thnx for the app Laughy, added to list lol

[FurryPanda]

Y'know... your message said you'd reckon 8 characters to be enough to start... and we have seven... just saying ;)

[jcardy]

lol .. i might wait till like Thursday-Sunday and then i promise the roleplay will start around that time ok FurryPanda =D
When the roleplay do start i will tell you the roleplay times and we will work out how some of our characters are friends or if some of are new to the school/just moved to new york, etc ..

[Laughy]

Name: Hunter Brennan

Age (depends on what year your character is in school):17

Upper East Side or Brooklyn: Brooklyn

Personality/Lifestyle: Hunter is Vienna's twin brother. Since their parents broke up, he has been living with their Socialite mum up in Boston. Oh, but how to describe hunter, he's the sweetest thing since chocolate filled mini eclairs. He's also the artistic type, he's expected to be the silent brooding type but he's not, not even close. He speaks his mind and doesn't hesitate to call it like it is. Hunter could not share a womb with Vienna and not inherit some of her qualities, he is also really fun to hang with as well except not as wild as Vienna. He is moving to New york to start afresh from the scandal that rocked Boston a few months ago. Luckily for him, he's mother sort of helped him and set him up with a sweet three bedroom apartment in Brooklyn.

Any secrets that your friends already know (you went to rehab, cheated alot, etc): His mum sent him back to New york, but his friends don't know why and he intends to try and keep it that way.

http://i193.photobucket.com/albums/z1/pinkgirl4real/StevenWilliams-StevenWilliams-5a56.jpg

Thers a pic of the uniforms worn at Upper East High

*You can your own jacket to wear. Up to you if you want to wear one

[FurryPanda]

wait, all of them do go tot he same school, yes?

[jcardy]

yeh .. thought that was understood lol =]

[FurryPanda]

It was, but the fact you specified it as Upper East High confused me for a moment, heh.

[jcardy]

Ammended post! again
Right then, how does this sound to everyone?

*The roleplay morning time will be a whole real life day
*RP noon will be a whole real life day
*RP afternoon will also be a whole real life day
*RP evening will be a whole real life day
*RP midnight will be a whole real life day
. . . an then the cycle continues. All together it would be 5 real life days per roleplay day.

The date an each periods of time will be posted to keep everyone up to date and non confused lol.

These are not actual times in real life, they are for the roleplay .. just incase u wanna say something like 'i got a lesson at 11.25am' or 'meet me on the steps', etc.
School times are mon-fri .. 9.30am-3.00pm
1st lesson = 9.25 - 10.25am
2nd lesson = 10.25 - 11.25am
Break = 11.25 - 11.40am
3rd lesson = 11.40am - 12.40pm
Lunch = 12.40 - 1.30pm
4th lesson = 1.30 - 2.30pm
5th lesson = 2.30pm - 3.30pm

You can decide what lessons you have .. 1st and 2nd lesson could be a double lesson also 4th and 5th lesson.

Anyone who has any questions or advice about the times then pm me k
Cause it might get confusing with the time difference between US & UK

[FurryPanda]

So its 2 RP days per 1 RL day? Or 2RL days for 1 RP day?

[jcardy]

its 2 real life days for 1 roleplay day
i think i will work the roleplay times out a little bit more but i will post when it is morning, noon, afternoon, evening an midnight .. a few more ammendmends and roleplay times should be alright ok

[jcardy]

Roleplay times are ammended once again and i think they will work even with the time difference in america an uk cause there will be 19-24 hours atleast for you to post something.

Roleplay is starting later.

The roleplay will start soon. It will be a friday, and school will start on monday (the new term) .. i will post the dates everytime i say the periods of day e.g. morning, noon, etc .. the time will be 8.00am in the morning.

Your characters dont have to start straight away, they can come later into the roleplay if you want.

I will post the gossip girl blog once it starts.

Any questions pm me.

[jcardy]

It is 2 weeks ago, Friday 15th August, 2008. Cheryl Larter soon to be Aubrey Parker is about to leave home.

'Cheryl! Cheryl!', alerted the fashionista that her parents were coming into her room.
'Just a minute!' Cheryl replied scared. She swung her door open, left the room and shut the door, and leaned against it as her mum Deena Parker looked at her. "Whats a matter? Cheryl?"
"Nothing mom", Cheryl mumbled.
"Well i dont care anyway, the plumber is coming to fix the jacuzzi later so i dont want you out shopping all day. I am of to work and your father has already left" Deena persisted.
Cherly roled her eyes in disgust as her mum left the penthouse suite and went to work, Cheryl sprinted up the stairs and grabbed her packed suitcases, waited for 10 minutes and left the penthouse. "Taxi!" she shouted, the yellow cab pulled over and the taxi driver put all her heavy suitcases full of clothes, shoes and cosmetics into the taxi's boot. "Hold on a sec" Cherly insisted, she sprinted back up to her parents penthouse suite and stole 6 expensive possessions to help her out with money. They were worth alot.
"Where too?" the cab driver asked
Cheryl took one final look at the Palace Hotel she has lived in, she sighed "Grand Central Station please". Cheryl grabbed her phone and text her best friend Annabelle Lee:
'Hey Annie
I've left. The apartment is nice .. see you there in 2 weeks ok.
Love you loads Cheryl, well im gonna have to change my name .. you can help me with that k.
Love yoo lots x x x'

Annie had been worried sick about Cheryl ever since she'd gotten her message two weeks ago. She'd been talking about this for a while now, but still when it finally happened Annie had been scared. There were so many people in Brooklyn, what would they do to Cheryl living by herself? It was so much to handle, but Annie was quite proud that she hadn't breathed a word about it, not even to Vienna.

Now she rolled out of bed, and put on jeans and a shirt (http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2111/2073054864_f8eeabf87f_o.jpg)- she didn't want to look rich if she was going to Brooklyn. She brought a tin of cookies along too, Cheryl, or whatever name she had decided on, would probably appreciate them.

It was a quick walk from Annie's penthouse to the subway station and then a short ride to Cheryl's new apartment. "437 Union St, 437 Union St." she muttered, finally finding the building. A short elevator ride and a walk down a hallway with lime green carpeting brought her to Cheryl's apartment. Annie gulped, hoping that she was alright, and that the apartment was as nice as what the two of them were used to. She knocked twice.

((OOC: Hope that's alright with you jcardy? And if you ahve a different adress, tell me and ill change it))

Lina wandered around the streets of Brooklyn. Her waist length hair was pulled half back as usual, away from her face and bright blue eyes, which gazed around at the small stores around the area. She was soon in a residential area. She wore a girly tunic dress that hit about mid-thigh, a pair of skinny jeans and black ballet flats. As she walked, she ran into someone coming out of their apartment.

"I'm sorry." She said quietly as she stood up to see a boy. An extremely cute boy. "I wasn't watching where I was going." She added quietly, with a small smile.

Vienna

The soft, and slightly gray light filtered through the qauzy, drawn curtains into the bedroom of Vienna Brennan. She pulled the curtains up to her chin as the light grew brighter, she knew it was time to get up but she did not feel like taking one step out of her cozy, warm bed. She rolled over onto her side and thought about the party that she'd been at the night before. Some of it was sort of hazy mess due to the alcohol and God knows what else she'd had. She did recall some wicked dancing and tons of drama like there always was in any party.

She finally slung her legs out of bed, and sat on the edge of it trying to clear out her sleepy eyes. She instinctively reached for her i phone, to check her messages and missed calls and to check out any new Bulletins from Gossip Girl. She was almost halfway done, when she remembered that she had to go drop off a care package for her brother this morning. She quickly got out of bed and went to the bathroom to get ready. After she was done taking a shower, she went to her closet and put on a Dorothy Perkins top, J Brand Jeans , Puma bolero, Dororthy Perkins belt, DVB Sunglasses , Coach bag, Debenhams necklace (http://i193.photobucket.com/albums/z1/pinkgirl4real/jule-outfit-2.jpg).

She quickly took a look at the time and rushed downstairs stopping only to grab her daily Soy Latte and the package itself and headed to the black prius outside, the door was opened by her chauffeur and once inside, they were on their way.

(( Sure Purplesummer, just let someone else post first because i can't double post))

[jcardy]

Cheryl now known as Aubrey:
Cheryl was wandering around her new apartment full of her luxurious furniture and designer walk in wardrobe, it just didn't blend well with the apartment. "Where's Annie?" she muttered.
The apartment was nice, it had a short balcony with a view of Brooklyn bridge, it had a small bathroom that needed refurbishing, a kitchen that was really modern and then a living room that was out of place full of her shoes and clothes which needed packing.

Knock, knock Cheryl heard on the door, she ran towards the door in her red shoes and white dress (http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee100/jcardy/dress.jpg) hoping it was her best friend. She opened the door with a huge grin, "Annie!" she shouted out happily, she invited her in. "You can call me Aubrey Paker now" she said quickly before Annabelle could say anything.

Hayden:
It was 8.30am and Hayden was feeling refreshed even though she had yet another party the night before. She pulled her eye mask of and her families maid Wanita opened up the curtains for her, "Busy today Mrs. Vander Woodsen?"
Hayden's mouth was dry so she drank her coffee Wanita made her, "Uhhhm, nothing much today. I might go shopping for a bit and il try and ring Noelle again"
"Well your mother left this package for you" Wanita said whilst running out to get the package. "Package? what package?" Hayden asked.
Wanita walked into her master bedroom and brought a gold box in with a brown ribbon wrapped around it, she placed it on Hayden's lap in bed. Hayden opened it up and she had a one of a kind brown short dress with an overall collar piece, along side the box was a pair of black shoes and a small bag (http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee100/jcardy/dress-1.jpg). "Oh they are georgous" Hayden said laughing.

She shortly got our of bed opened her doors and walked onto the balcony in her silk dressing gown. She yawned and text Noelle:
'Where are u?
You have'nt been replying to my texts, its not like you. Wats up?
W.b H x x x'

Hayden closed her phone and went to the kitchen, where she had her favourite breakfast, pancakes and chocolate sauce. After finishing Hayden went into her walk in wardrobe and put her new outfit on made by her mother Seliesha Vander Woodsen, 'i might go and see my mums shop later' thought Hayden.

[Laughy]

Hunter

Hunter had probably been up for most of the night only going to sleep for about 4 hours. He'd been at this party thrown by one of his friends in the Meatpacking District. This morning, he'd been up at 7 am sketching a little. The view from his his bedroom and living room was amazing especially in the early morning with the kind of light pouring in. The apartment he was in was great, he'd been expecting to maybe unpack furniture, but when he'd gotten here from Boston the day before.

He had also been waiting for his sister, Vienna, to show up.he was starving and she had the care package filled with food that he needed. He should have known form experience that Vienna was never early for anything, especially if it interfered with her beauty regime. At sometime around 10, he'd looked out from his huge window in the living room and seen a black prius pull up to the curb and knew it was her. He'd rushed down stairs in some old jeans and a green polo and immediately ran into a girl. He immediately started apologizing, " Hey, i'm sorry that was totally my fault", he said standing back to see if she was hurt.

[PurpleSummer_SC]

"No, I was looking at the building over there..." Lina explained. "I didn't see you...um, I'm Lina." She boldly made eye contact, something that her shyness sometimes stopped her from doing.

This boy certainly was expecting someone, with a glance at a black prius that had just pulled up on the street. Lina pushed a piece of hair behind her small ear as he introduced himself.

[FurryPanda]

Annie waited an instant, before the door opened- inward thankfully, Annie was standing right in front of the door- and Cheryl shouted "Annie!"

Annie couldn't help but grin happily at seeing her friend again, at a gesture from Cheryl, she stepped into the apartment, noting that she looked well, and that all of her luxurious furniture was still present. "Now how did she manage that?"Annie thought. The apartment was clearly a cheapo, and the lime green carpet continued from the hall and kind of scary dirty wallpaper did not match the oh-so expensive furniture and bags of still to be packed clothes, but it was better than Annie expected. When she'd heard Cheryl was moving to Brooklyn she'd worried that Cheryl'd wind up in a dumpy flat, which this certainly wasn't.

She was about to offer compliments on her nice new place, and the cookies she'd brought, but Cheryl headed her off before she could say anything, "You can call me Aubrey Parker now."

"That's cute." Annie said. And it was, she loved the name Aubrey. She wandered a bit further into the apartment, and saw a nice modern kitchen that made the place seem slightly less cheap. She was looking around at all the stuff in the apartment and finally said, "This place is really nice, how ever are you paying the rent on digs like these?" She was still impressed, even if che-Aubrey was a bit dishonest to get a nice place like this.

"Oh yeah, I brought cookies." Annie finished, offering Aubrey the tin.

((OOC: Laughy and PurpleSummer, mind if Jordan wanders over?))

[Laughy]

Hunter

"Well, i'm sorry", Hunter replied," I'm Hunter", he added reaching out a hand for a handshake. Suddenly, he heard his sister's voice as she alighted from the car, she was talking on the phone, probably to one of her long list of girlfriends, he thought. He had been right, the car did belong to his family. "Nice to meet you", he added and looked to his sister who had now hung up the phone and was walking alongside the chauffeur who was carrying a huge box with ribbon around it. She came near to him, looking at the girl he was talking to and smiling at her.

"Hey Twinnie", she said in the nickname they'd always had for each other. She hugged him, gave him a kiss on the cheek and pulled back. Then she looked him up and down and remarked, " Wow,you finally decided to grace Lowly New York with your presence, huh ?", and then burst into laughter," Just kidding", she said. She then turned back to Lina," who's your friend?", she asked smiling at Lina.

(( Sure,no prob))

[PurpleSummer_SC]

Lina smiled, "Nice meeting you, too." She said quietly, as his sister greeted him. The girl turned and smiled at her. "I'm Lina..." She said, "and I need to watch where I go more." She added, turning her sky blue gaze to Hunter as a small smile played on her lips.

[jcardy]

Annie slowly walked into the apartment as Aubrey was saying, "I know corridors are horrible but im geting in here refurbished, i got a walk in wardrobe. Oh and those ornaments i sold got me alot of cash so im not broke". Aubrey sighed as she looked at her cheap floors and dirty walls, "i will end up changing the whole building at this rate" she laughed, "thanks for coming though Annie". Aubrey walked over to Annie and gave her a hug.

This place is really nice, how ever are you paying the rent on digs like these?" Annabelle asked.
Aubrey walked over to the kitchen, placed the jar of cookies on the counter and sat on a stool, "come sit down" she said while munching on cookies, "these are great". Knowing that she was stalling the question, she thought otherwise and answered it awkwardly, "You know i have planned this for weeks before i left. I met up with a property manager, this place looked minging before he said what could be done, i payed him for the apartment. So i dont pay rent at all, its my apartment", Aubrey gulped. "Dont think differently of me, i was desperate but, those priceless ornaments my parents had? well i sold them all and got alot of money for them, PLUS! the extra $250,000 i had left in my account".

Aubrey took a deep breath as she had'nt shut up since Annie got here. "So how've you been?", she asked quickly.

[[ooc: yeh come see us, my apartment door is still left open]]

[FurryPanda]

Jordan woke with a start in his bed, visions of cocktail wieners and martinis dancing across his eyes. His parents had dragged him to some work party rather than let him go to one at the meat packers, and he had entertained himself by getting into a drinking contest with another kid there. Now a headache stood as the only testament to his winning.

It was early in the morning, and Jordan seriously contemplated rolling over and going back to sleep, but instead he got up and dressed in a red track suit. He ran every morning, without fail, and today he had to especially- he had eaten a lot of cocktail weiners.

His run took him in a spiral pattern throughout Brooklyn, and finally around 10:30 he got to near his best friend Hunter's building. Normally he wouldn't go and look for Hunter but he had just gotten back from Boston. Then again, Jordan decided that it probably would be better to come back after he had showered.

He would have kept running past eh building, Except he noticed hunter standing outside talking to some girl. This was just too convenient to pass up. "Oy, Hunter!" he yelled across the parking lot as he loped across the street, "Whose your friend?"

He drew alongside the pair and then his stomach sank a little. He saw Hunter's twin sister Vienna getting out of the car, and there he was in all his sticky, sweaty glory. He was so infatuated with her, and she looked as always, calm and perfect. "Hey Vienna," he added cheerfully, hoping she wouldn't judge him by the obvious sweat stains he had accumulated this morning.

((OOC:Laughy does that work for you? Vienna did get out of her car right? And it wouldn't make sense for Hunter to be his best friend if he'd lived in Boston up til this point, so I was writing that he was visiting and moving into a new apartment now? That right? Or acceptable?))

[Laughy]

(( Yeah that's perfect. That is what i had in mind in the first place, he lives in Boston and comes to visit in New York often))


Hunter smiled back at Lina and replied, "Well, i was part of the problem", then realizing that he hadn't introduced Vienna yet he backtracked and turned to his sister who had her arm around his waist, she seemed to have seen someone she knew somewhere though he didn't really know if this was possible since most of her New York friends were in the Upper east Side.

" This is my sister,Vienna", he said to Lina introducing her," Vienna, this is Lina", he added quickly. His sister snapped back to attention, and just as she was about to reply to the introductions, Jordan came up to them. She'd thought she'd seen him, but hadn't been sure.

"Hey Jordan", She replied to his greeting," Where were you last night, too good to come do Jello shots with the rest of us ?", she asked him teasing slightly. Hunter smirked at her ripping Jordan up, " Yeah dude, where were you, you left me all alone at the party with all the girls and no one to share them with", he replied teasing him back too.

[PurpleSummer_SC]

Lina stood awkwardly amongst these people who obviously all knew eachother well. Hunter mentioned a party and she remembered that. There had been a party, but she had never been in that crowd, being her shy self. People thought she looked too goody two shoes to have fun, apparently. Her large blue eyes and clear complexioned skin along with the rest of her made that apparent.

But she had to break out of that. She was a junior this year. "Are there any parties tonight?" She inquired shyly.

[FurryPanda]

"come sit down, these are great". Aubrey said, taking the cookies Annie offered. She smiled widely, she had made them herself and always appreciated compliments on her work.

Annie meekly walked over and sat down on the stool Aubrey had indicated. It was really comfortable and Annie let herself relax. Obviously Aubrey had settled in and her worries were all unfounded. And now her best freind had her own place! They could throw parties!

You know i have planned this for weeks before i left. I met up with a property manager, this place looked minging before he said what could be done, i payed him for the apartment. So i dont pay rent at all, its my apartment."

Annie's eyebrows rose into her hairline. An apartment overlooking the brooklyn bridge, even a dingy one bedroom cost a fortune. She must have done something awful to be able to afford a place like this, even if she was just as filthy rich as Annie.

She was just about to breath out, "you didn't have sex with him did you?", because that was the only way she could see Aubrey affording a place like this, when she continued, "Dont think differently of me," Anniesaw how nervous Aubrey looked. "Oh god... my best freind is a slut whore!", she thought in a building panic.

"i was desperate but, those priceless ornaments my parents had? well i sold them all and got alot of money for them, PLUS! the extra $250,000 i had left in my account". Oh. That was much better than the slut whore explanation, all things considered.

"So how've you been?"
"Che-Aubrey, I wouldn't think differently of you, you're my freind. End of story. And I've been OK, I missed you though. Party scene isn't any fun without you." Ok that was a lie, but it should make her feel better. She lapsed into a comfortable silence, content to just sit eating cookies with her freind.

((OOC: Bit of a flimsy ending, but I can't think of anything to add))

[Laughy]

Vienna looked away from Jordan back to Lina, she felt mortified because she had briefly forgotten that she was still standing there. They had just talked around her without even introducing her." Uh, i think there's like 3 different ones, right Jordan?", she said looking to him for confirmation.

Hunter was still standing there, he remembered that he was still hungry and looked longingly at the box that was still with the chauffeur. He thought about all the goodies that were very possibly in there and his mouth almost watered.

[jcardy]

"Che-Aubrey, I wouldn't think differently of you, you're my freind. End of story. And I've been OK, I missed you though. Party scene isn't any fun without you." replied Annabelle

Aubrey could tell that was just a sentence to make her feel better, and it worked, Annie was truely her best friend.
"Aww god, i have missed the parties so much. Miss them much more than my parents, twa**!", Aubrey giggles in awkwardness to what she was about to say. "I hate pretending something im not, i mean c'mon im not poor for god sake but i gotta act poor-ish so my parents dont find me". Aubrey sighed, was running away the best thing to to, what am i thinking of course it was. Was it?

It was still early in the morning, and Aubrey was greatful that her best friend came all the way to Brooklyn. She couldn't seem to stop smiling. She packed hung her clothes up in her wardrobe and the apartment seemed that little bit more tidier. She turned to Annie, looked at the clock and back at Annie again, "Its still early" she chuckled, "but i gotta get renovating today, damn. See what i go through" she joked. "Wanna help? .. you get to wear a non designer apron" she said sarcastically smirking, knowing that Annie would be disgusted.

[[yeh my reply is cheesy lol .. but it shows they are good friends lol]]

[FurryPanda]

Jordan was honestly delighted when the lovely Vienna graced him with a smile and greeted back, "Hey Jordan", She continued in a teasing tone of voice " Where were you last night, too good to come do Jello shots with the rest of us ?"

"Damn straight," he replied with a cocky smile and careful eye contact. It was so awkward liking a girl as much as he liked Vienna, especially when she was one of his best freinds, and most especially...

"Yeah dude, where were you, you left me all alone at the party with all the girls and no one to share them with" when his best friend was her brother.

Before Jordan could answer him the girl that Hunter been talking to before asked shyly, "Are there any parties tonight?"

Vienna answered quickly, "Uh, i think there's like 3 different ones, right Jordan?"

"Three that are worth going to, there's one in Madison square garden, but that's way to public. I still haven't decided which to go to. It ain't easy being this overwhelmingly popular," he said with his usual grin. Overwhelmingly popular was what he definitely was not, and it was something of an inside joke between the three of them.

"Hunter, you really shouldn't complain when you have all them girls to yourself, only way they'd talk to you is if I weren't there." His grin only grew wider, he was so lucky to have friends that thought his random teasing was amusing. "And you still haven't introduced your lovely friend?" he said waggling his eyebrows suggestively at her. It was all in fun of course, especially since he was still dressed in sweat stained track suit, but he did not object to teasing people other than his friends. Hence why he had so few.

[Laughy]

((I gotta go for tonight guys, See you tommorow.Feel free to use my charcters if need be but don't godmod them too much.))

"Yeah, anyway I haven't decided which one to go to yet, but here's my number", Vienna said turning back to Lina and giving her a piece of paper with her number on it." Call me later this afternoon, and i'll arrange things with you okay?". She smiled at Lina again and then started talking to Hunter. "Dad sent me with the care package and the Chauffeur has it so take it from him and pig out or whatever", she said then said bye to Jordan and Lina, .

"Oh by the way,Jordan, call me we should catch up", she said and hugged Hunter, she then got into the car and waited for the chauffeur to drop of the package with hunter. Once that was all done, she rolled down the tinted window and waved to all of them and watched as Hunter held the box and started to talk to Jordan and Lina again, she looked back until they were out of view and then rolled the window back up.

[jcardy]

[[ ooc: im off to k guys, feel free to RP Aubrey if needed. Or Hayden, but its only morning at the moment. Bye guys ]]

[FurryPanda]

"Aww god, i have missed the parties so much. Miss them much more than my parents, twa**!"

Annie flinched a little bit when Aubrey swore. She had been sheltered enough to never say such filth- unless of course she ruined some favored item of clothing, or tripped over high heels that were inching higher and higher each year. Aubrey however, could curse like a sailor and listen to the same without blushing, a skill Annie greatly envied.

Aubrey giggled awkwardly, presumedly at Annie's blush. "I hate pretending something im not, i mean c'mon im not poor for god sake but i gotta act poor-ish so my parents dont find me".

Annie lifted one eyebrow at that. Most people didn't guess how smart she was, how much general knowledge she had or how many books she had read. Aubrey knew, so in saying that she probably expected Annie to ask why her lifestyle would be seen. If she just changed bank accounts two or three times, and sold the ornaments where they couldn't be found, and got new credit cards, Annie didn't see how she was traceable. By her folks. Now living as a socialite in Brooklyn would be risky for her, all sorts of horrid people around here, and partying would make for too many risks of discovery, but otherwise? Why couldn't she live in the conditions she was accustomed to? She had a bank account with a frigging quarter million dollars!

Annie decided not to say anything though. Aubrey wasn't stupid, at least in Annie's opinion, and she'd been thinking about this for weeks. Surely she already knew anything Annie would bring up.

Companionable silence enveloped the two friends once more and Aubrey got up to put some more of her clothes away, leaving Annie to contentedly and guiltlessly munch on the cookies she had brought.

Jsut as she was about to ask if Aubrey had moved her bank accounts- that would be the easiest way to track her and both of them should know it- she stood up from yet another bag of clothing and said, "Its still early, but i gotta get renovating today, damn. See what i go through?" she said in a perfect imitation of a spoiled rich girl. Annie smiled at that, never appreciating the irony of being amused by spoiled rich girl impressions.

"Wanna help? .. you get to wear a non designer apron!" Aubrey gushed sarcastically.

"Oh! But I just got my nails done!" Annie said in sincere horror. She shook herself. Her friend needed her assistance... she would provide it. "So, since I needs must content myself with a non designer apron, there better be the trendiest of styling work gloves, Aubrey!"

[jcardy]

[[ ooc: Jordan and Hunter could come see Aubrey and Annie if they wanted, Aubrey's apartment door is open and her apartment is getting renovated. So they can get to know eachother, etc. ]]

Aubrey
"Oh! But I just got my nails done!" Annie said in sincere horror.

"Really?", Aubrey questioned, raised an eye brow and smirked as Annie shook herself.
"So, since I needs must content myself with a non designer apron, there better be the trendiest of styling work gloves, Aubrey!"

Aubrey waddled in a hurry to her living room, opened a box and pulled to pairs of gloves out, "they are only couture gloves, im getting new ones later" she laughed in silence, "Damn it, i gotta act differently than that". She waddled back over to Annie, twisting her ankle on her journey over in high heels, she cursed "Son of a b***h!" as she tried to keep her emotions under wraps, "I mean... cookie?" as she passed the jar over from the counter.

A knocking was heard at the door which soon grabbed Aubrey's and Annabelle's attention. "Hello, Aubrey Parker. It is me the renovator" shouted a deep voice from behind the door.
"Just on time", Aubz laughed as she limped towards the door with a clipboard. "Basically this place is a dump, your assistance is needed". She pointed him to the places that were needed.

The renovator quickly got to work as Aubrey told him what laminate flooring she wanted and what walls were needed to match the modern and neutral colours she had hoped for. Aubrey put the clipboard down on the counter and continued talking to Annie. "He can do all that for now, we can catch up", she said humourously.

Hayden
Still no reply from Noelle and Hayden was now getting annoyed, it is 11.25am and Hayden does not know what to do with herself. So she goes onto the balcony and does yoga (She's in a penthouse so she wont look stupid lol). Hayden relaxes impatiently due to no reply from Noelle. She stops yoga and goes to Starbucks stressed for a chocolate frappacino. She is wearing her brown dress and collar piece, black clutch bag and black shoes (http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee100/jcardy/dress-1.jpg)

[[ ooc: anyone feel free to see Hayden, she has no one. Shes queen B too lol, so she should have people lol. But yeh she is in Starbucks, which is in Brooklyn and Upper East Side ]]

[Laughy]

((Um, Since Vienna isn't doing anything i could have her come see Hayden. And HUnter can go see Aubrey and Annie, just give me a few minutes, i have to do something really quickly))

Vienna

Vienna looked out the car window as they drove through the winding streets of Brooklyn. She thought about her brother coming back to New York, while she was happy he was back, she also wondered why he came back so suddenly. All she knew was that her mum had sent him back because of something that happened. She wondered if he'd tell her what happened, but decided to leave it to him she figured that when he was ready, he'd tell her.

She snapped back to reality when she hard the sound of dozens of horns beeping around her. She looked towards the front and saw that they were stuck in typical new York traffic and it might take a while to get out. She got out her phone and texted Hayden. She hadn't seen her in a while and wanted to see if she was okay.

Hey bb,
Where r u ?
Hope you're okay
..... Vienna

Hunter

After Vienna had left, he'd rounded up his conversation with Lina, and then taken the package inside with Jordan close behind. Now they were at the door and Hunter got out his keys to open the door. He went into the apartment and dropped the box on the kitchen counter. " So what do you think?", he asked Jordan as he began to open the box to see what their cook had packed.

[jcardy]

Hayden:
Hayden still bored with a venti chocolate frappacino, 'where's Noelle?' and then she was briefly interupted by her phone beeping. 'Its probably Noelle! she thought, she slid up her phone. It was Vienna, "Oh my god" Hayden shouted out excited, making everyone stare at her in Starbucks.

'Hey bb,
Where r u ?
Hope you're okay
..... Vienna'

Hayden replied sooner after:
'Hey V!
Long time no speak
Im in Starbucks, why whats wrong?
Im fine thanks, u?
xx H'

..

..
....Sent! Hayden soon thought, wonder whats a matter with Vienna.

[Laughy]

Vienna smiled when she received Hayden's reply. She hadn't heard from her for about a good 2 weeks and it was good to see that she was okay

Which one?
I'm sitting bored
need some girl time
..Vienna

She pushed the send button on her phone and waited for the message to go off.

[FurryPanda]

Annie
Annie had never pictured Cheryl as a do-it-yourselfer and she doubted very much that Aubrey was one, or would be any good at it if she had decided to look into it. Not that she would ever doubt her freind... but that was low class stuff. She was perfectly willing to help if it turned out Aubrey was into DIY though.

But Annie's first instincts were usually right, and today was no different as Aubrey handed her a pair of gloves and then went to open the door and let the renovator in. Annie was amused by that, why would they need gloves and aprons if some other guy was doing the work? She didn't comment though, she usually didn't. Annie did occasionally chime in as Aubrey instructed the renovator on what she wanted, and Annie thought it would look gorgeous. As she said. Repeatedly.

her apartment taken care of Aubrey smilingly said, "He can do all that for now, we can catch up."

Annie smiled, unbelievably relieved to have not had to risk breaking one of her gorgeously manicured nails (http://admc.be/images/oksana-3.jpg). "Well, all of those cookies have gotten me really thirsty, wanna head to Starbucks?" she said, finishing off her fourth cookie as she did.



Jordan
Jordan watched as Vienna got in her car to drive off, replaying her parting words, "Oh by the way, Jordan, call me we should catch up" over and over, in a very happy daze. He barely noticed as Hunter finished talking to the girl- whom he still hadn't introduced- and led Jordan to his apartment.

He snapped out of it once Hunter said " So what do you think?" before he started rummaging in the box Vienna had brought. Jordan took the apartment in at a glance and said appreciatively, "It's really awesome, you could probably have like... forty people in here partying! And no parents to deal with!"

He wandered over to Hunter's side and deftly reached over his freind's head to steal an orange from the care package. Which gave both of them a delightful whiff of Jordan's armpits, still nasty from his run. "Oh man, I am so sorry, I really have to get home to shower." he said awkwardly. Well, what options did one have except awkward when one jsut gave thier best freind a faceful of eau de armpit?

He backed out the door and turned on his heel to start walking back to his apartment.

((OOC: He's still in ear shot if Hunter wants to talk,
and jcardy, you can have Aubrey and Annie go to Starbucks to meet the others or not as you choose. may as well make this as huge and awkward as possible, no? hehe.))

[jcardy]

Hayden
Hayden was soon alerted again with another text, from Vienna.
Which one?
I'm sitting bored
need some girl time
..Vienna

Hayden raised her eyebrow, what does she mean which one? Upper East Side, why would i go to Brooklyn?
She typed her message back to Vienna earger to see her.
'Im in Upper East Side's one, why would i go Brooklyn? lol
Yeh come over im bored too, i was just gonna go out shopping again but come over for Starbucks
xx H'
The message sent, an Hayden put all of her shopping bags back down on the side of her waiting for Vienna. As she waited she rummaged through her bags, looking at the outfits she had bought. Thats just what Hayden needed at the moment, a good old chat with one of her closest friends Vienna.


Aubrey
Aubrey was a little surprised to see that Annie would of actually of helped out, with the renovating but she seemed relieved that her nails were okay.

"Well, all of those cookies have gotten me really thirsty, wanna head to Starbucks?" asked Annie

"Uhh, yeh sure. I have not left this apartment for a while. Let me tell the renova..." Aubrey was interupted by the renovator, "Im all done mam"
Aubrey replied happily, "Thanks! i thought it would of been a while, really appreciate it"
With that the renovator left leaving Aubrey to look around her apartment quickly. "Annie! the floors are great. Looks like its gonna get better here" she grinned with excitement.
Aubrey quickly ran to get her outfit on (http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee100/jcardy/outfit.jpg) and left for the door with Annie. She turned the key to make sure it was locked, and left with Annie. "Which one we going to?" she asked Annabelle.

[Laughy]

Vienna

Vienna scowled for a few seconds after receiving Hayden's text. Well, that is true, she thought, Hayden never goes to Brooklyn unless it's an emergency or life threatening. The scowl disappeared after a while, and she began to key out another message to her

K, bb
I'll meet you there
Grab some coffee
and then we'll head over to Barneys
for some retail therapy.
..... Vienna

After sending the text, she shifted forward a little and told the Chauffeur the change of directions. Soon they were at the Starbucks, and she got out of the car. She headed into the the store and craned her neck a little to try and search out Hayden in the crowd.

Hunter

"Um, okay dude", Hunter replied as Jordan started towards the front door. " See you later then", he shouted at him as Jordan left.

[jcardy]

Hayden

Hayden ordered Vienna a signature hot chocolate and herself a chocolate frappacino. She turned her head to see if Vienna was anywhere to be seen. The shops bell rang as someone entered the shop, it was Vienna. "Vienna, over here!" shouted Hayden

Hayden shouted her name a few more times, making a scene in the shop. She laughed and didnt care what anyone else thought.

"Hope you like hot chocolates" she grinned.

[[ ooc: FurryPanda Aubrey's roleplay part is on previous page, last post. ]]V

[Laughy]

Vienna looked towards the voice that she had heard. "Hey", she shouted back equally loud. She walked to Hayden's table, going past the tables of writers pounding out things on their keyboards or maybe pretending to. She didn't mind that people were looking at her, in fact she liked it. She lived by the motto,If you're not being looked at with envy and admiration and not being talked about, then you're no one.

She hugged Hayden and with a kiss on both cheeks, she sat down at the table." Yes, i do", she replied taking the chocolate in one hand and blowing on it slightly before taking a ginger sip. "So what's up?", she asked setting the cup down and looking through her bag for her phone.

[FurryPanda]

Annie was impressed the renovator had finished so quick, and she nodded enthusiastically when Aubrey said, "Annie! the floors are great. Looks like its gonna get better here". She agreed with that, most definitely, the floors were so nice and shiny.

"Which one we going to?" Aubrey asked, emerging in slinky black dress and jacket. "Upper East Side, i need to recover from the risk of breaking a nail," she said with a bright smile.

((OOC: You can have them travel to and arrive at the Starbucks mmk? I'm writing Jordan's post now))

[jcardy]

Hayden

"Hope you like hot chocolates" grinned Hayden
Hayden hugged Vienna back, and pushed the hot chocolate towards her on the table. "Yes, i do" replied Vienna. "So what's up?

Hayden looked down to her frappacino, stirring the straw around the drink. "Well apart from the guy on the laptop pretending to type, nothing much" she laughed. "This is how bored i have been, im flirting back, i dont like him. I am just soooo bored" she said as she huffed. "How about you? have not spoken to you for a while, hows the summer holidays been? i heard Hunter was back"
Hayden soon paused for a deep breath and let Vienna speak, she smiled as she was happy to see her friend Vienna once again.

"By the way have you heard from Noelle? I have not seen her in like two days. First Cheryl, i hope Noelle doesnt run away too" asked Hayden.

[[ooc: Do you want to know Noelle Laughy? .. cause i think LilAmy07 wants a few friends to start of, and my character Hayden is best friends with her Noelle ]]

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Aubrey
Aubrey and Annabelle left the block of apartments and caught a taxi to Upper East Side starbucks. Aubrey knew she once lived in the Upper East Side, but whose gonna notice her now with her completely different appearance. She is a new person.
The cab arrived at Starbucks and it was quite hectic inside, a few people were laughing heavily and some were busy typing on there laptops. "Here is a table", Aubrey implied. Annabelle sat down with her as they shared gossip from the 2 weeks of not seeing eachother


[[ ooc: i know that was short and a bit cheesy FurryPanda but i didnt wanna control Annie much, i thought if we go to Upper East Side starbucks Hayden would recognize Aubrey from somewhere and possibly Vienna cause they knew Cheryl which was Aubrey's previous identity .. that ok? ]]

[Laughy]

Vienna laughed a little as Hayden was talking. " Well, you know, he is kind of cute", she said glancing at the writer across from them and then looking back," and anyway, no harm in just flirting", she said smiling. "How about you? have not spoken to you for a while, hows the summer holidays been? i heard Hunter was back", Hayden asked. " Um, yeah Hunter's back, he has an apartment in Brooklyn", she said stirring a little cream into the hot chocolate.

" And don't worry about Noelle, you know how she is, she's probably in Paris or something having the time of her life", she said trying to reassure her.She could tell when Hayden was worried, and right now she seemed more than a little worried about Noelle.

{{ Sure, that'd be fine, i think i pmed her though}}

[FurryPanda]

Jordan ran home as fast as he could, he pretty desperately wanted that shower. He arrived around noon, and took his shower, emerging with slightly damp hair and a much better mood. He threw on a pair of jeans (http://www.howies.co.uk/shopimages/products/normal/we_bv_jean.jpg) and a Yankees shirt (http://www.nycwebstore.com/images/products/sports/AC-Yankees_Jersey_lg.JPG) and sat down on the parlor floor, joggling his cell phone from one hand to the other. Vienna had asked him to call her, and now was as good a time as any, no body was eavesdropping on him.

Working up his courage he punched vienna's cell number into his phone and raised it to his ear. He was relieved to hear it ringing tinnily.

((OOC: post for annie momentarily))

[jcardy]

" And don't worry about Noelle, you know how she is, she's probably in Paris or something having the time of her life", Vienna implied.

Hayden thought differently for a moment but then decided to listen to what Vienna said. "Yeh, thats what Noelle's like" Hayden laughed, she felt much better now. Hayden glanced across the room to see two girls about her age sitting down, one looked familiar but she thought otherwise. She turned back to Vienna, "Sorry back to Hunter. He is in Brooklyn? why?", she questionned.

"Im thinking of throwing a party tomorrow as it will be one of our last weekends before we start school", considered Hayden

------------------------------------------------------------------------

(( ooc: feel free to roleplay Aubrey & Hayden if needed, just dont get them into trouble, etc lol ))

[FurryPanda]

Annie relaxed in the cab, already fantasizing about a frappacino. They arrived quickly, not much traffic on a Friday morning and Annie and Aubrey walked in. Annie glanced around quickly, the place was crowded. She smiled widely as she saw Vienna and Hayden sitting at a table towards the back. Just before she could shout to grab their attention Aubrey gestured sharply at a table and quietly but firmly said, "Here is a table" It was abundantly clear to Annie that she did not want to go see Hayden and Vienna

Annie figured she knew where her friend was coming from- she had disappeared for two weeks and changed her identity, and Hayden, the royal queen bee, could sometimes be an uber bitch, but Annie reckoned that if Cheryl/Aubrey was going to be a new person she needed to meet people. Before sitting down, despite Aubrey's glare at her she whispered, "Oh come on Aubz, you're going to have to deal with these people at school, I may as well introduce the lovely new girl now."

Seeing her freind look thoroughly unconvinced she decided to bring in the big guns. Annie was one of the nicest most accepting people that anybody knew, and she almost never called in favors, so that when she did she usually got them. "Please Aubz? do you have any idea how hard it was for me to know where you had gone and not be able to tell anyone? You'll be fine, please jsut come over?"

With that Annie spun on her heel and strode over to Vienna and hayden. She knew Aubrey would follow her. "Hi guys!" she chirped cheerfully.

[Laughy]

Vienna and Hayden continued to chat and talk. It was amazing the range of topics they could cover in 15 minutes and still have tons of things to talk about. Some time after they had started talking, Annie came over to their table with another girl behind her."Hi guys!" she chirped cheerfully.

"Hey Annie, where've you been all this while, we were starting to think you'd gone under a rock or something", Vienna replied as she sipped her hot chocolate. Hayden greeted her as well and then Vienna turned her attention to the girl behind her." Hi,i'm assuming you're Annie's friend,i'm Vienna", she said trying to be a lot more nicer. The girl seemed to be a bit shy and hung at the back of Annie as if she'd rather be anywhere but there.

[[ This is my last post for today, i have to go, we'll have to continue tomorrow Furry, sorry]]

[paintedgrey78]

Name: Nora Freeman
Age: 18
Upper East Side/Brooklyn: Brooklyn
Personality/Lifestyle:
Nora is an outgoing, and very outspoken girl. She has never been afraid to speak her mind, and has no desire to care what others think about her. She can be quite cynical, critical and brutally honest to not only her friends, but strangers as well. But she does have enough self restraint to where she only gives her opinion if it is asked. She finds it quite rude to give their opinion on something though they had no right to make a comment. Because of this people tend to find her annoying and frightening, and try to avoid her as much as possible. Nora is a realist, and does not like to get her hopes up for she believes that not everything is a fairytale. Of course, not everything is, but at times she can come off as quite pessimistic, though she’s just trying to put things into a realistic perspective.

She doesn’t really have any friends due to her lack of kindness, so she tends to have issues trusting people. Some she may trust more than others, but she can never trust someone completely, for she believes that trusting someone only ends disappointment. She is quite stubborn, and does not listen to others very often when they give her advice. Unless someone makes a good case, it’s either her way or the highway.

Nora loves to play the piano, though you rarely hear her play it often, for she never seems in the mood. She also loves to write, yet her stories consist of mostly unfinished novels that are still in progress. Nora is easily bored, so she always ends up going from place to place, from one activity to the next. She has trouble sticking to one thing unless she absolutely loves it, which unfortunately is quite rare.

Nora is a free spirit, and goes wherever life takes her. She also has a soft spot for animals and world peace. She is a vegetarian and hates cruelty to animals, and will most likely go on for hours talking about it, if you give her the chance of course. If Nora sees someone eating meat, she was comment about it, and probably wind up giving that person a lecture on how you shouldn’t be eating meat, and that there are other ways to get the proper nutrition your body needs. Nora has a strong opinion, and will fight until the other person eventually gives up, for they always do.

Yes, it’s true. Nora does in fact have a soft side, though people rarely see it. The only person who has seen her this way is her father. She and her father have a close relationship, because her mom left them when she was only a few years old. He had always been very busy with work, but always tried to make time for his daughter.

Any secret that your friends already know:
She was put in jail twice for protesting against animal cruelty and the testing of animals.

Eep, here goes.


Name: Erin Forest
Age: 16, Junior
Upper East Side or Brooklyn: Brooklyn.
Personality: Known to be rather shy, Erin joined the school in 9th grade. Since, no-one's really noticed her, but who knows what she's hiding these years?
Although nobody has bothered to get to know Erin when the books have been put away, she is an excellent cook and an exceptional singer.
She might not be bubbly, and can actually seem cold, but her style and smarts could become a major threat any day.
Also, her parents have turned rather protective of her after the death of her little brother, a year before the family moved to Brooklyn.
Lifestyle: Erin was raised as the daughter of a model, and her father works in producing movies, so naturally she was exposed to a glamourous, elegant lifestyle since she was a baby.
Her mother, however, kept her away from media, knowing that Erin should be safe. However, she still has access to major events and personally knows many designers, who've seen her grow up.
Secretly, Erin's always wanted to be an actress, but her parents would never allow it. But then again, now that she's hit the teen years, she has become rather attracted to the party-girl lifestyle.
When you see her out of school - probably rarely, you'll probably be surprised at her fashion sense and inherited-from-mum figure.
Any secrets that your friends already know: Erin's reputation at the school has always been the good-grades, stay-out-of-cliques and out-of-trouble type. Only a very few people know that Erin was caught making out with a male singer at a party a year ago. Even then, those people probably don't realise that it was Erin, or have forgotten, as her parents covered everything up for her. Also, it was rumoured that she had a one-night fling with one of UESH's hottest boys after a party, but it could be just a lie.

[jcardy]

Aubrey
The table Aubrey had suggested was blatent that Annabelle didnt want to sit there. Hayden and Vienna were in the far back of Starbucks, Aubrey worried a little, i don't wanna be known as Cheryl. "What if they recognize me?", whispered Aubrey loudley to Annabelle.

"Oh come on Aubz, you're going to have to deal with these people at school, I may as well introduce the lovely new girl now", replied Annabelle lovingly.
Aubrey sat there unconvinced when Annabelle said, "Please Aubz? do you have any idea how hard it was for me to know where you had gone and not be able to tell anyone? You'll be fine, please just come over?". With that Aubrey thought about it whilst Annie walked of to the table with Hayden and Vienna.

Aubrey heard Annie chirp in the background. So Aubrey let all worries pass and got out of her seat, picked her bag up and trailed after Annabelle. "One chocolate frappacino please Kath!", ordered Aubrey, "I mean 2 please, one for Annie too".
Aubrey put her head down in shame, 'i forgot im Aubrey not Cheryl, Aubrey. Kath doesnt know Aubrey'. The waitress Kath kindly bought over the drinks for her and Annie and walked of, so Aubrey took a breath of relief.

"Hi,i'm assuming you're Annie's friend, i'm Vienna", implied Vienna.
Aubrey seemed pre-occupied for a moment as she was having second thoughts about coming to the Upper East Side and the fact that she was from Brooklyn wearing her expensive outfit (http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee100/jcardy/outfit.jpg)
"Sorry .. I'm Cher-Aubrey! Aubrey", with that Aubrey shut her mouth, trying not to make a fool out of herself anymore. "So where are you from then?", she asked Vienna and Hayden.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hayden
"Oh, hey Annie. Join us", she said as she pulled out the seat. "Whose your friend over there? She looks familiar", asked Hayden anxiously.

Aubrey walked over, after she told Kath for two frappacino's. Vienna started to speak to her, Hayden listened intently to the girl. "Sorry .. I'm Cher-Aubrey! Aubrey",
"Oh thats a nice name", complimented Hayden
"So where are you from then?" Aubrey asked Vienna and Hayden.

"My parents and i got a penthouse, in that hotel right over there", replied Hayden, pointing to a hotel that stood over Central Park glamourously.

[[ ooc: didnt know what to say for Hayden, she's not a b***h btw, she can be but she is generally quite nice. but people first think she is ]]

[xJOFLx]

Erin stretched her arms out raised it above and past her head. Sighing, she went back to her revision - School was starting soon, and she definitely didn't want to start off with a 'cold brain'. Erin paused.
'Oh well, everyone knows the first day back is for those bubbly girls to show off their new looks. Why do I bother?' Putting her chemistry notes to the side of her desk, she got up and walked around her room.

She didn't think it was that big - Compared to those mansions over by the Upper East side, this was nothing. But still she knew how many of her Brooklyn neighbours struggled - They were lucky to get such a big house.
On her bed was several issues of Vanity Fair, her hair straightener, and a spilled bag. Erin lay on her stomach on her beige and white blanket and rummaged through her white leather Prada bag (http://i277.photobucket.com/albums/kk71/jSQUIDGY/RoleplayOutifts/PradaLeatherFrameBag.jpg) - A gift from someone that her parents knew.
Clutching her rhinestone and qubic-studded phone in her hands, she fiddled on the keys. A few seconds later, she got a new message.

Hey honey,
Just heard about a new dress that came in that shop I told you about - Vander Woodsen's, isn't it?
Familiar name...
Anyway, you might like it.
I'm going to get some coffee with my friends, so I should be back in about two hours.
Stay safe,
Leanne.

Oh gawsh. How typical of her mum, taking care of her daughter. Erin didn't really blame her - losing a child is one of the worst things a mother can suffer. It still hurt to think about little Josiah.. But she was so numb from the events that took him away, it didn't matter anymore. Bored, she logged into her usual websites - Nylon, Blogspot, Etsy, Gossip Girl... Oh wait, GG was blinking. Something instantly caught Erin's eye.

Hayden.. Hayden Vander Woodsen.. Hm, she scrunched her eyebrows at the computer screen as she tried to recall such a name. Shaking her head, she clicked on another window. The name was vaguely familiar - But not enough to trigger any memories.
Brushing a strand of hair out of her face, she reached over and hit the play button on her sound system and turned back to the computer.
'At least I can find out who this Hayden girl is tomorrow'...
After checking a few more emails, Erin walked into the kitchen, and made herself a snack.


((OOC: Bleh, it's not very good at all, but at least I can start roleplaying.))

[FurryPanda]

Annie
Annie was not a social butterfly, and because she was so incredibly shy most of the time, she was intimidated by her social betters. Except Cheryl/Aubrey of course, but they'd been friends since grade school, so she didn't count as a social better. Now Hayden... entirely different story. Annie was scared sick of the royal queen bee, but she could be brave for Aubrey's sake, and she would be. And Vienna was there too. That helped.

"Hey Annie, where've you been all this while, we were starting to think you'd gone under a rock or something", Vienna greeted her.

"I disappeared in a puff of fire and brimstone, only getting back to town now," she joked, before adding, "Good to see you too Vee"

The waitress arrived, and Annie flipped her hair over her shoulder to order her usual, a great large chocolate frappacino, but before she could say anything, Aubrey chimed in, apparently having decided to follow her. Annie was pleased for her freind, Cheryl Larter was no annoyingly shy person like Annie- though she had been working on it- and Aubrey Parker shouldn't be either.

"One chocolate frappacino please Kath!", ordered Aubrey, "I mean 2 please, one for Annie too". Annie kept her usual cheerful smile on her face, wondering why Aubrey acted like she knew the waitress. Annie would think that if her friend had had two weeks to plan her deception, she would do a better job. Especially when she was dealing with people who wouldn't think twice about slightly weird behavior- Vienna hung out with Annie fairly often, and Hayden undoubtedly had to fend off legions of weird trekkies.

vienna, wonderful oblivious person she was, ignored Aubrey's little slip and said sweetly, "Hi,i'm assuming you're Annie's friend, i'm Vienna" Annie was smart enough to not let her delight at this statement fill her features, but she vowed that she owed Vienna a favor for drawing attention away from any familiarity with the waitresses.

Then Annie's immovable little smile almost fell off as Aubrey answered, "Sorry .. I'm Cher-Aubrey! Aubrey." She paused for a moment then added weakly, "So where are you from then?"

Annie wanted to either slap her freind for not knowing her own name, or provide a rock for her to hide under, but she couldn't do either. hayden answered Aubrey's question and then Annie jumped in saying, "Isn't she so awesome?"[/i], to Vienna. "Her parents are like, French, and they call everyone Cher-this and Cher-that in those awesome accents! Aubz is much better about it though, would probably be really annoying otherwise." The others would hear her- obviously- but she had to cover her freind's butt if she couldn't even remember her own name!

((OOC: Hope that's OK with everyone involved?))




Jordan
Jordan glumly flicked his cell phone shut, it was a cheap old thing, and something had made it drop the call to Vienna, probably before it even rang. "Dammit." he said oh so softly, before walking outside to see if the signal was better in the courtyard. He dialed again, throughly optimistic.

((OOC: Just to let yall know, I'm going to be gone this evening until 9-10PM GMT-4, 1-2AM GMT, and 7-8PM GMT-6. So Laughy, you're the only one that will still be online (I assume) when I get back, so we can RP their phone call then))

[jcardy]

Aubrey
"Sorry .. I'm Cher-Aubrey! Aubrey". With that Aubrey shut up, then asked Vienna an Hayden, "So where are you from then?"

"Her parents are like, French, and they call everyone Cher-this and Cher-that in those awesome accents! Aubz is much better about it though, would probably be really annoying otherwise." quickly added Annabelle.
'Phew thats my a** saved' thought Aubrey, "Yeh my dads half french like, an they were making fun of me saying if you put cher and aubrey together it sounds like strawberry", Aubrey laughed, so did Hayden. "I just got so used to them calling me it, it became a silly habit of mine".

Aubrey knew she wasn't half french, but she was half spanish. 'Looks like i'm a french, spanish american' thought Aubrey. Aubrey was never this quiet when she was Cheryl Larter, the highest of the social scene.
Part of Aubrey always liked Hayden, they were really close. It was just that Hayden talked to anyone and everyone, she got along with basically everyone - so it was hard to speak to her at times even though they had alot in common.

"To answer your question Hayden, im living in Brooklyn. Got my own apartment", she sighed due to her new lifestyle not being on the Upper East Side.
Aubrey nudged Annabelle for interupting Hayden. She knew that Annie her best friend was defending her, but she could be a bit naive when it came to Hayden. Aubrey always sensed there was something different about Annie when around Hayden, for instance she would interupt and could be openly rude. But Aubrey liked that sometimes about Annie depending on the situation at hand.

She turned to Vienna with a smile, "How about you Vienna? where do you live?"
Aubrey has never been shy, but there are times where she can be a quiet. Its just one of her moments where she likes to think to herself. Aubrey had always been confident even as the new Aubrey she is even more confident, still being the light of bubbly energy she is.

Hayden
Hayden was listening intently to what Aubrey had to say, she liked Aubrey and enjoyed her presence. Hayden was interupted by Annabelle and Hayden thought about things like this alot. Being queen B she new what she had to do, to get to the top. She knew that she always had the last laugh, and if you displeased her - she would invite you over and make you feel bad about it. Unfortunately for Annie, Hayden was'nt gonna let it go, well for now she will.

"Ahhh Brooklyn, its ok over there. I don't like it myself, i feel out of place there", Hayden added. "No offence!"
"Aww none taken Hayden", implied Aubrey with a perfect smile.
"Anyway girls, party at mine on sunday. Everyones going. Wanna come Aubz?", asked Hayden nicely.
"Sure, why not?", replied Aubrey with a bigger grin.
Hayden handed out an invatation for Aubrey and Vienna. She had Annabelle's invatation in her bag but thought not to give it to her, for now. "Come over mine later, for you invite ok Annie... 6pm sharp", she said with an eyebrow raised, with that Hayden left to see her mother at her shop.

[[ ooc: Hayden is showing her bitchy nice side lol ]]

[Laughy]

Vienna half smiled at Aubrey when she explained about the french thing. She didn't know if it was just her, but Aubrey and Annie seemed to be very anxious and fidgety. "Oh, i live in the big apartment building a few blocks away", she said gesturing towards the road. When Hayden invited Aubrey to the party and told Annie to come by her house later, Vienna turned towards Hayden and lifted one of her eyebrows to question what Hayden was doing.

She usually had all the invites with her and rarely told people to come get it later. She decided to think nothing of it, and turned back to Aubrey. "Hey, you know you look a little bit like Cheryl Larter", she said looking at Aubrey's face a lot more carefully."Don't you think so?", she asked Hayden.
Just as Hayden was about to answer, Vienna's phone rang and the quiet air was suddenly filled with the music from it. She picked it up and looked at the screen, she saw it was Jordan and pushed the answer button. "Hey, what's up?", she said and then put it on speakerphone so Hayden could say hi.

Jordan's mood improved infinitely much when Vienna picked up the phone. It always gave him a bit of a lift to hear her voice, it was so flowy and high without being shrill. Even his dirt cheap cell phone couldn't hide how lovely it was.

"Hey, what's up?" she said as she picked the phone up. "Nothing much, just chilling in the park," he responded. Normally he was so quick to get to the point, but now... he couldn't bring himself to just go and ask her out. Her end had been quiet for a second, so finally he casually, maybe a bit too casually, asked, "So, doing anything tonight?"

((OOC: I think someone will ahve posted by the time I get something ready for Annie))

[jcardy]

"Hey, you know you look a little bit like Cheryl Larter", said Vienna looking towards Aubrey.
"Cheryl had blonde hair, dark brown eyes like yours", implied Hayden, "So your obviously not Cheryl cause your both completely different, she was punky and had a different personality" joked Hayden.
"Yeh" laughed Aubrey, "Who is Cheryl?"

Hayden was just leaving to go to her mothers shop, when she heard Vienna's phone ring, it was Jordan. "tell him i said hi, see him at my party sunday", Hayden said as she passed another invite to Vienna. Hayden had heard Jordan flirting with Vienna, and thought nothing of it for the moment.
"See you at mine, six pm Annie." She turned towards Aubrey, "it was nice meeting you, heres my number, bye Vienna, Annie".
Hayden swung her long blode hair as she turned around to leave, but suddenly Annie replied, "No thanks, I'll just crash. You're not having bouncers are you?"
Hayden smirked, "see you there" she said challenging. She left strutting furiously to her mothers shop with her bags and bags of clothes to her mothers shop.

Aubrey was relieved that no one knew that it was actually her Cheryl Larter right infront of them, she took a deep breath of relief. "Wanna go shopping in a bit girls?" asked Aubrey as she smiled to Annie and Vienna.

[[ ooc: With Cheryl, lets say her style was very rocker chic loook, but now shes changed to glamourous/smart, Cheryls hair was blonde she had dark brown eyes, Aubreys hair is dark brown with dark brown eyes still ]]

[FurryPanda]

Annie, sensing that Aubrey's crisis was averted, started sipping at the round of frappacinos that ahd arrived. She tuned out most of the conversation, reveling in sugary frappaci-nirvana. She heard Aubrey's name all of a sudden, said by Hayden: "Anyway girls, party at mine on sunday. Everyones going. Wanna come Aubz?"

It was sufficiently polite, so Annie kept on sipping her frappacino and staring into space as Aubrey answered. All of a sudden Hayden said Annie's name, inviting her over to get a party invitation. She smiled politely and said, "No thanks, I'll just crash. You're not having bouncers are you?" She gave a little laugh. It wasn't that Hayden's offer hadn't piqued her curiosity, it was that she really couldn't converse one on one with anyone except Aubrey. It was just too awkward for her.

((OOC: jcardy, Annie isn't purposely being snubby, but she is being snubby, so could you edit one of your posts to show the answer she actually gave? I don't really like being GMed when I'm composing a reply for the charachter in question :angel:
Also, jordan called, not Hunter, and didn't laughy PM you that hayden was supposed to be there so that royal queen bee would know that/if they were an item?))

[jcardy]

[[ FurryPanda, i just mailed you back and Aubrey and Vienna are gonna end up coming over too, so shes not gonna be alone k :D .. and no one was GM'ed .. i thought cause of high status queen b, anyone would meekly agree, so sorry about that misunderstanding then ]]

[[ooc: my last post edited (post 101), its now Jordan and not Hunter, and your answer was written down okay FurryPanda - i didnt think it was GM'ing cause i wrote it down first and then Hayden left, then your comment from Annabelle come up .. but its edited now and all sorted ]]

Annie watched as hayden stormed out in a huff. "Was it something I said?" she wondered as she took another sip of her coffee.

Aubrey asked then, "Wanna go shopping in a bit girls?" and Annie smiled widely. She really wanted a new bag, hers was almost two months old by this point. "I'd love to" she said sincerely, and tipped the frappacino back to finish it.

All of a sudden Vienna's phone rang. She picked it up and answered it, putting it on speaker as a matter of course. Annie was a bit amused to hear Jordan's voice come out of it. He was a nice enough kid in his way, but so annoying. Why would he be calling Vienna? She shrugged and put her elbows on the table to eavesdrop quietly.

[jcardy]

Aubrey
"Wanna go shopping in a bit girls?" asked Aubrey, she needed something to relax her head. So shopping for some ew stuff should be great with Annie and Vienna.

"I'd love to" said Annabelle innocently sipping her frappacino.

Vienna's phone started to ring which startled Aubrey, as she only gets phonecalls from Annie now as she has a complete new identity. It was on loudespeaker, Aubrey decided to eavesdrop along with Annabelle, Hayden already heard a bit of the conversation before she stormed out.
"So whose that then?", asked Aubrey secretely to Annie.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hayden

Hayden walked quite a while since her brief disagreement with Annabelle. Hayden was one of those who always liked her way, even though she doesnt like to show it. She had alot of time on her hands before she had to go to her mothers shop, so she decided to take a walk through Central Park. Shortly Hayden met up with the fountains of the park and decided to sit down on a bench underneath a sidewalk with steps. She sighed and looked at her invites, Annabelle's was in her bag. Hayden started to think whether she was being a bit of a bitch to Annie, but she didnt want to accept it.
She grabbed her phone out of her bag and text Aubrey:
'Sorry for storming of
I hope we can become good friends, and i shall see you whenever.
xx H, oh this is Hayden by the way'

She then quietly ran her fingers through her hair and started to stroke the ends with her fingers, she was shocked for her phone to be ringing. It was her mother, "Hey Hayden, darling. Don't forget to come over the shop, i have another outfit for you. Bye', Hayden didnt even have a chance to say anything. She was so stressed out at the moment, why is Annie being weird with her, she thought.

She quietly sat on the bench along with her many shopping bags, thinking about the party, school and Noelle
.

[SwirlyHill]

OOC: Hm, I've been meaning to return here to roleplay for a while, I wouldn't mind joining this, though I have no idea how I would introduce a new character into the storyline.

[PurpleSummer_SC]

((Long vacation?))

[xJOFLx]

The front door opened with a slight clunk, and Erin heard her mother come in.
"Hey Mum." she called, closing the dishwasher.
"Hi honey!" Leanne Forest briefly answered, taking off her heels and putting down some shopping bags. Hand on her hip, Erin drifted over to the front door and took a look through the bags.
"Hm, Mizz P did a good job on the new designs!" she murmured, inspecting an olive green cardigan.
"She did, didn't she? Sheryl gave me that one today - How was your day at home?" Leanne smiled and headed for the parents' bedroom, Erin trailing after her.
"Oh, not too bad. I got your text, and I'm going over there in an hour, kay? I need to buy new school clothes anyway, so it'll take me a while, I think."
Taking off her earrings, Leanne gave her daughter a knowing look.
"Uh Erin, honey, you're the fastest shopper I know. Don't you just want to spend hours in a shop like other girls your age?"
Erin rolled her eyes, and left the room to take a shower.


...


About 20 minutes later, Erin was back in her own room. She opened the door of her walk-in closet. The lights flicked on automatically, and the cold air hit her. Wrapping her mauve bathrobe (http://www.alaturcatextiles.com/images/productimages/Bathrobes/Yumosh-Microterry-Bathrobe-White.jpg) tighter around her bare body, she walked around until she decided on an outfit - including a plain green skirt and dark brown shirt (http://i277.photobucket.com/albums/kk71/jSQUIDGY/RoleplayOutifts/P080121000395.jpg), with matching brown boots (http://www.ninewest.com.au/www/166/files/boots_harish_01_lg.jpg) and a bright red belt (http://i277.photobucket.com/albums/kk71/jSQUIDGY/RoleplayOutifts/stretchablebelt.jpg) on her waist. She put the outfit on, and checked it out in the mirror. Satisfied, Erin sat down at her make-up table, and undid the towel that was on her head. Gently she applied concealer and a tiny bit of foundation, pressed powder over that, and put on eyeliner. Her lips only needed a soft lipliner and a bit of lipgloss. Her hair was ready for blowdrying, and Erin straightened her brown hair (http://l.yimg.com/img.tv.yahoo.com/tv/us/img/site/67/02/0000006702_20060920135432.jpg) just for fun.
Her cellphone, wallet and some Dior lipgloss were tossed into the white bag of hers, along with some other carry-around makeup. She trotted out her room and paused at the front door calling over her shoulder,
"Bye, Mum! I'll be back by 5!"
"Bye honey!" came the distant reply.
She closed the door behind her and hailed a taxi to her favourite shopping street over on the Upper East side.

When the taxi stopped, Erin paid and got out hastily without a word to the driver. Sometimes she was nice to her taxi drivers, but today she wasn't really in that mood. She strolled down the street, just enjoying the breeze and business of the street until she came to the store she was looking for. Erin pushed the door open eagerly and stepped inside. Inside the store, the atmosphere was warm and quiet. Over by the counter was a kind-looking face - One that she'd probably seen before at some lunch with her parents. Looking around her at the racks of dresses and things, she walked towards the counter.
"Hello, my mother told me there was a dress here I might like. Would you mind showing me some of your new designs?" Erin spoke to the lady as polite as she could be bothered.
"Well, of course." the lady replied in a smooth, but aged voice. "Have we met before?"
"I'm not sure." Erin smiled apologetically, still unsure. "You may know my mother, Leanne Forest?"
Mrs Van der Woodsen's face broke into a surprised smile.
"Oh, you must be Erin? Of course, Leanne's daughter." Erin nodded and smiled like she should, as Mrs Van der Woodsen put on a confused face and carried on. "What school do you go to?"
"Upper East High School." she told her as they made their way to aside of the shop.
"Oh, really? I have a daughter that goes there, except - I don't think I heard about you.."
Erin pressed her lips together and fingered a blue satin piece that was displayed on a mannequin.



((OOC: jcardy, I GMed Hayden's mum, but tell me how to change it, because I didn't know what I should write. :)))

[jcardy]

[[ ooc: SwirlyHill you can join. I'll pm you now =D .. xJOFLx i dont mind that her mum was GM'ed i will bring Hayden into it now .. ]]

Hayden
Hayden recieved another phone call from her mother, "come over here, im off in an hour" her mum said politely, "okay mom" replied Hayden.
With that Hayden picked her bags and bags of shopping and left central park, not in the happiest of moods. She had a party to plan and host, and she had to wait for a surprise outfit from her mum, she was so stressed.

Hayden was just around the corner from her mother Seliesha Vander Woodsen's shop. She strutted past her mothers windows full of expensive clothes designed by her, she entered the shop with her hair bouncing as she walked in her brown dress, brown collar peice, black necklace, dark brown clutch bag, and black shoes (http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee100/jcardy/dress-1.jpg). Hayden was looked at alot, especially by the guys. Attention was just given to her anywhere and everywhere she went. She walked over to see her mother talking to some girl, "Oh, really? I have a daughter that goes there, except - I don't think I heard about you.." said Seliesha Vander Woodsen.
"Hey mom", her mum turned towards Hayden, "I go where?"
"I was just telling Erin here that you go to Upper East High too", replied Hayden's mum.
"Well hi Erin, im Hayden Vander Woodsen", she said smiling to the brunette.

[xJOFLx]

Instantly, Erin spun around to see who came in. Hayden Vander Woodsen? Of course! The daughter of the famous designer.
"Well hi Erin, I'm Hayden Vander Woodsen." Hayden smiled at Erin, who was quick to return.
"Hayden. Of course, hi. Erin Forest. I go to your school?" Erin raised her eyebrows, slightly skeptical at the blonde's niceness towards her. She knew about these girls.
"I like your outfit, by the way." Erin complimented Hayden genuinely and started flicking through the designs on the rack beside them, inspecting each one's texture.

((Oop, short post.))

[jcardy]

"Hayden. Of course, hi. Erin Forest. I go to your school?" replied Erin
Hayden smiled, this girl was genuinly a nice person. 'What does she mean of course?', Hayden thought to herself.
"I like your outfit, by the way." Erin complimented Hayden, as she looked for the clothing designed by her (Hayden) mother.

"So i take it you dont know eachother", questionned Selisha, glaring towards [b]Hayden. "Your life revloves around being popular an....".
Hayden interupted, "..an whats wrong with that, its not my fault i seem to get along with everyone, she looked down to the counter. "Sorry mum, im just having a bad day. See you at the penthouse for dinner?" she asked politely smirking.
"Aww no worries Hayden, see you later at the penthouse okay then", replied Seliesha softly. Seliesha went back to the front windows, perfecting her designs.

Hayden stared into nothing for a moment, thinking about her crappy day. She knew she would be better later. She waved to her mum twinking her fingers, and walked over to Erin. "It was nice meeting you. See you at school", Hayden had her hand on the door, pushed open. She turned back to Erin, "im hosting a party on Sunday, wanna come?". Hayden was being genuine, smiling towards the newest friend she hoped to make.

[[sorry thats cheesy in a way lol .. FurryPanda & Laughy, Aubrey's last post is above somewhere, i have not ignored it lol ]]

[paintedgrey78]

Nora began rifling through her purse as the taxi cab came to a sudden halt. Searching desperately for money she glanced up towards the taxi driver, who appeared to be slightly annoyed at the fact that he wasn’t getting paid at the moment. “I have the money,” she said towards him, giving a sigh and continuing the look through her purse. The man gave an impatient look then turned around shaking his head, muttering something to himself. “Look,” she said, as she stopped going through her purse. “I have the money, I just can’t seem to find it at the moment. Now if you have any sort of respect for others, you’ll wait patiently until I give it to you.” She narrowed her eyes and continued going through her purse.

“Look miss,” he said to the Nora. “In case you haven’t noticed, I have other people to take places. I have two little kids and a wife at home that I need to take care of, understand?” Nora rolled her eyes and took out a few five dollar bills, handing it to the man. “Just take it, I don’t have time for this,” she said, quickly hopping out of the taxi and shutting the door. The sympathy card – it seems as if everyone’s been using it theses days, she thought to herself. She found it pathetic really, the fact that people used sympathy as a way to get what they want, which goes to show that people around here don’t have the ability to sway others using only their wit and intelligence. Though she did feel a bit sorry for the man – of course it could’ve all just been a lie, people have made lies like that before.

Nora sighed, then strolled down the street towards central park. Her outfit (http://www.polyvore.com/cgi/set?id=3054286) consisted of black jeans and a t-shirt, along with a brown bag. It wasn’t much, but Nora felt that she shouldn’t have to dress up every moment of her life. She did like to feel comfortable just like everyone else, but not everyone dressed as comfortable as she did. In fact, she would often be scoffed at because of the way she dressed, though she paid no attention to them. Nora never had the urge to fit in and become someone she’s not just to be liked by others. It was stupid, and if she had the chance to yell it to the whole world she would.

Coming upon a bench Nora sat down and rested, pulling her hair back to keep it out of the way. The only reason she was at central park was to get away from the house. Afternoon had arrived and the sun’s rays were at the peak of its heat. She took a quick glance at the watch, realizing she had lots of time before she was to head back to her house.

((Approachable))

[jcardy]

Its Friday 29th August, 08
http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee100/jcardy/evening.jpg

[xJOFLx]

A silence hung in the air as Erin made herself busy. Towards the end of the rack, she found a gorgeous red piece. A lovely addition to her boring day.

"Im hosting a party on Sunday, wanna come?" Hayden asked her.
"Sure, why not?" Erin smiled. "See you at school, too. Maybe we could hang out sometime."
She put the dress down on a nearby stool and walked up to the counter to pay.
"These designs are amazing, Mrs VW. Didn't you do a collection back in '96? I'm sure I've seen your work somewhere." While waiting for a reply, Erin looked behind her shoulder at the weather outside. Mrs Vander Woodsen gave her the dress, and Erin headed out.
"Anyway thanks, see you around, Mrs V." she called just before hitting the cold air outside.

It was getting darker, and the wind harsher. Checking the time on her cellphone, Erin cringed. There was just one more place to go, before she went home for dinner. Erin strode across the road crossing, and in the corner of her eye a car stopped just in time. Startled, Erin mumbled an apology and hurried to her favourite accesories shop.

She walked out with two new ties for school, and a mood ring. Not those cheap ones, hers was made of silver. It had cost her a little something, but money was never a worry in her household. Erin took a cab home, opening the door just as her dad left again.
"Oh, hi dad." She gave him a quick kiss on the cheek. "You're going again?"
"Sorry Erin, this new project's taking up a lot of my time. I promise to take you to the premiere and all the parties though, okay?" his husky voice assured her. Erin rolled her eyes jokingly.
"Kay. Well, have fun with that. See you soon?"
"Tomorrow. Bye, sweetheart."

In the kitchen, Erin found her mum finish cooking their meal.
"Hi mum, I'm back. Just saw dad leave." her mother greeted her and they set the table together. After making small talk, Erin commented on the pasta they were eating.
"Mm, I see that you tried the herb I bought you. So, do you remember much about Saliesha Van der Woodsen?"
"Saleisha? I suppose so, yes. Why?" Leanne looked at her daughter quizzically.
"Just that I met her today, at the shop you mentioned. Hayden was there."
"That rebel daughter of hers?"
"She's not a rebel! Well, she seemed quite nice today." Erin laughed.
"You know what those girls are like. Meanwhile, I hope you never make out to be one of those snobby girls. I don't mind fun, but it does come with a price."
Erin nodded; she knew all too well. She'd had a little 'fun' in the past too, but lately she'd been suppressing her urges to go out and party like crazy. She'd never forget the outrageous nightclub date she went with Epper East's own..
"Wine, honey?" her mother interrupted her thoughts.
"Sparkling, please." Shaking out her thoughts, she got up. "Actually, I have some more revising to do. I'll come and get it later. " Erin retreated to her room, just to see Gossip Girl's blog flashing again. It was about Hayden and some of the other girls at school. Usually this would have meant nothing for her; Erin was good at picking up gossip anyway, but today she decided to go on an all-out hunt for things about Hayden and her past.

Just 10 minutes later, Erin was rather astounded. That girl could write a biography with all the things that was on the internet about her! She logged off and revised a little for English lit., and snuggled up in her queen-size bed with the white wine, and a book from her father's little 'library'. She heard occaisional murmurs from her parents' room - Her mum was probably on the phone again. Erin was just about falling asleep when she sensed something wrong. She had no idea what it was, but tried to put it out of her mind by occupying herself with memorizing some vocab words for German. When she'd done with the first list, the strange feeling was completely gone.

[jcardy]

"Im hosting a party on Sunday, wanna come?" Hayden asked her.
"Sure, why not?" Erin smiled. "See you at school, too. Maybe we could hang out sometime."
Hayden then left her mothers shop. Hayden liked Erin and wanted her to be part of their group, but as Queen B she thought it was essential Erin earned her way into the group, same goes for Aubrey. Hayden noticed a white bricked building that was wide in space and had two floors. She read the shops sign 'H. Samuels Jewellery'.

Hayden entered the shop, she was quickly assisted as the Vander Woodsen's were well known in The Upper East Side. "How can i help Hayden? Louie take her bags", said one of the owners. Louie placed Hayden's bags on the lounge area of the shop. Hayden's arms were killing from carrying 14+ bags, so she was relieved to have a break. Hayden was being smothered in diamond jewellery, she had a 14carat ring on which was huge, something to wow her friends she thought. She also had matching earings. She bought them all, which cost a few thousand which wasn't a lot to the Vander Woodsen's as their family were extremely wealthy.

Hayden was just about done in the shop, she searched her bag for a dress she had bought especially for a party she had in mind. "Can this dress have some diamonds sewn into it please?", Hayden pointed specifically where she would want the diamonds sewn in.
"Well i can sell you these", the owner said, "but you will have to go somwhere else for them to be sewn in".
Hayden nodded and bought the diamonds, hoping that her mother would sew them into her dress around the torso and waist area. Hayden collected her bags and then left the shop and noticed a cab driving towards the street she was in.

"Taxi!" Hayden yelled, the yellow cab pulled over to the sidewalk immediately and let her in. "'The Charlyle Hotel please drive".
Hayden then rummaged through her bag for her phone (http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee100/jcardy/samsungglyde.jpg),"found it" she muttered. She text Vienna:

'Hey V,
Sorry i left in such a fowl mood, feel better now.
Come to my penthouse for a bit if you want, i need some help with party planning. Bring Aubrey too, thats it though lol.
Ly H x'

Hayden was fine after her day of shopping, but still wasn't in the mood for speaking to Annabelle. Finally the taxi arrived at her destination, Hayden passed him a $50 as she had no change, "just keep it" she said smiling as she left the cab.
Entering the hotel facing Central Park, Hayden was immediately greeted by the hotel employee's and assisted with the carrying of her bags. She smiled and waved to everyone who greeted her, as she walked towards the elavator with an employee carrying her bags behind her. Another employee was in the elevator controlling it, "Penthouse suite Hayden?" he asked.
"Yes please", she replied.

The elevator shortly arrived to the top floor, the penthouse where she lived proudly. Her bags were placed on the table near the elavator. Hayden took a breathe of relief when she sat down on the couch. Wanita the maid greeted her and asked her if she wanted anything, "Just a glass of diet coke please, with ice please". Wanita shortly brought them over on a silver platter and placed them on the desk near Hayden. "Thank you Wanita".
Hayden was really close with Wanita, closer than she was with her mother.

Hayden sat at her computer and checked the recent Gossip Girl blog to find that she was posted on both comments. No surprises there she thought to herself.

[Laughy]

Vienna clicked off her phone as she entered into her car that was out on the front curb. When Jordan had called her, she'd thought he had something serious to say but before he could talk the line had went off. She'd shrugged it off as a connection problem on his part and decided to wait for him to call back or till the next time she saw him.

After saying goodbye to Annie and Aubrey, she'd left and was now in her car as it rolled down the streets stopping occasionally at traffic lights.Soon she was in front of her Brownstone house. It was among a whole bunch of sort of similar houses. She let herself in and stopped at the Kitchen to grab the mail that had come for her. She bounded upstairs to the third floor and opened the french doors that led to her bedroom. Once in there she took off her shoes, threw the mail on her bed,next to her bag, and got out her Laptop. She sat back on the bed with it and pushed a key to bring it back from it's hibernation stage. There, she headed to her fave update sites and then headed to Gossip Girl to see what the latest is. After a few minutes, she got a text from Hayden.

S'okay, i understand
Sure thing, can't bring Aubrey tho
don't know her enough
.....Vienna

She quickly replied to her and went back to her laptop.

[[ Furry, I out that the line cut off because it wouldn't make sense to still be talking since the afternoon. Sorry i wasn't on before but i was really busy this weekend, hopefully we can try it again soon]]

[[Purplesummer, can Lina call her back now, Vienna couldn't have answered that call when she did call before]]

[jcardy]

[[ Laughy, so we have all left Starbucks. Cause i have not been roleplaying Aubrey cause i didnt wanna GM lol .. Oh and Hayden sent a text to Vienna lol ]]

[Laughy]

OOC:Yeah i edited my post with a reply, sorry didn't see it at first :)

[jcardy]

[[ ooc: no problem lol :D ]]

Hayden:
Hayden read through most of gossip girl pages, most of them about her and Cheryl. I wonder why shes still on there, where could she be, thought Hayden. She turned the laptop of and walked up to her bedroom balcony where she could see most of Manhatten and the Upper East Side. Her arms still aching from the heavy shopping bags, her head stressed from party planning and a recent turn with Annie.

Hayden was soon alerted by a text recieved from Vienna:
'S'okay, i understand
Sure thing, can't bring Aubrey tho
don't know her enough
.....Vienna'

She replied instantly
"Come over whenever then k.
Sleep over if you want, my mums off to Paris in about 2 hours.
Yeh true. Cya later .. H x'

Hayden put her phone on her bed and went to her wardrobe to see if the dresses a.k.a options were good enough for her party, 'to casual', 'to classy', "perfect" she said to herself.

[jcardy]

what would you all say to the roleplay times changing like this?
RP morning = 2 RL days
RP noon = 2 RL days
RP afternoon = 2 RL days
RP evening = 2 RL days
RP midnight = 2 RL days

What does everyone think?
Reason im asking is because some people think its hard to post a few comments during 24 hours

edited: il post midnight tomorrow

[Laughy]

Vienna absentmindedly grabbed her phone as it buzzed to say that a new message was here. She turned her gaze away from her laptop, and focused on the new text message instead.

Sure will, might stay till school starts
if nothing comes up
Okay??
......Vienna

She pushed the send button and turned back her focus to her laptop. She had already started thinking about her dress for the party on Sunday. She quickly set a reminder on her phone to remind her to call her usual designer and see when they could set an appointment for her custom dress.

[[ Yeah the new times could work. You know due to time zones and stuff some people don't have enough time to get posts in]]

[jcardy]

Hayden
Hayden needed to relax, so she booked a day at one of New York's most popular spa's for Saturday before her party, she had alot to do saturday and the spa would be the icing on the cake for her.
Hayden's focus turned to the elavator which she heard ding, the doors opened. It was her mother. "Oh hi Hayden, remember we're having dinner made at 8pm tonight".
"Yeh, i didnt forget. Oh and mom, i got his dress and i want some diamonds placed around the torso and waist. Can you do that whenever?" Hayden asked gently.
"Yeh sounds good", her mum looked at the bags on the table. "What did you buy then? anything for the party sunday? .. oh dont worry, we will chat later at dinner" her mum implied.
Hayden sighed and recieved another text from Vienna, she replied to it quickly as she had a few more things to do.
'Yeh sure thats fine
Ly H x'

Hayden's attention was turned to a fashion problem, theres a thing bcalled being to popular. Everyone knows about you so you gotta look good. She couldnt find any shoes to match her dress, thats another thing i gotta do tomorrow. Shoes were scattered all over the floor of her walk in wardrobe, but still no shoes to match her dress. Hayden sat against the giant mirror on the wall, her head between her knees sighing. Hayden is a high maintenance girl, anything to do with friends and fashion could get her bitching, depending on the situation of course.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Aubrey
Aubrey left Starbucks a few minutes after Vienna. "Bye Annie. Give me a ring whenever then k. Today was close huh?", she laughed and left Starbucks. Even though Aubrey had the money, and plenty of it, she decided to walk home. It was getting darker, and the pink part of the sky was blending with the darker parts where the stars were twinkling. Aubrey really had changed, she wouldnt of walked round the corner without taking a taxi.
Aubrey heels clogged to the ground as she walked, she looked so out of place as she entered Brooklyn. That was a close one today, Cheryl Larter was right under there noses and they didnt know, she thought to herself smiling. Who knows what her parents would of thought, they could of found out she was infact Cheryl. She pushed the key into its hole, unlocking the door, shut it and took a huge breathe of relief gently kicking her heels of as she walked. The apartment was looking nicer which made her relax, all she needed was a little more furniture and she should be fine.

Aubrey had nothing else to do now, except get a party outfit ready. She knew her new style wouldnt at all resemble Cheryl, so she knew she would be safe in that department. So she checked the gossip girl blog and shockingly there was nothing what-so-ever blogged about her apart from Aubrey possibly being an IT girl. Aubrey left the computer on and decided to make a frappacino, well push a button on the coffee maker.


[[ ooc: alright then, 2 RL days per RP period of time like above. Oh and anyone feel free to knock Aubrey's door - shes lonely lol .. FurryPanda sorry if i Gm'd your character at all, i dont think i did, but like Laughy said, we hve been there all day an it was getting late also so we have to move our characters :D ]]

[omgitsashley]

[FurryPanda]

((OOC: Ashley, I need to finish up a post in Morgan's, so could you write your charachter's first post and one of mine will approach? Just something about her going out in the evening and winding up somewhere wanting something to do))

[PurpleSummer_SC]

Lina walked back to her family's apartment, the piece of paper with Vienna's phone number on it in the pocket of her jeans. She closed the door behind her, sitting on the couch and wondering if she should call. She did need to get out more, and what better than going to a party that Vienna (who was obviously influential)? She could meet people and actually have fun.

As she pondered this, she looked for something she might want to wear, singing quietly under her breath. Her voice was soprano, with a sweet, pure tone to it. She stopped singing and made her way to the phone, dialing Vienna's number. She left a message. "Um, hi Vienna. This is Lina. I'm calling to ask about the party. I wasn't sure--" The phone was picked up and she heard Vienna's voice.

[FurryPanda]

Annie had left the Starbucks pretty soon after hayden did, there wasn't much there. She had wanted to go shopping, but the idea sort of seemed to die.

She went home and checked in with her mother, before going back to a quick party at her ex's place. It really was quick, they were done by midnight.

Annie was walking home around Madison Square Garden clutching her handbag tightly, and she cursed her ex for not thinking to drive her home. she bumped into someone else in the garden and suppressed the urge to scream- the garden was so creepy at night!- before she asked haughtily, "What are you doing at this ungodly hour of the night?"

((OOC: ashley, shes talking to your girl, and the above is why you put up your situation!))

[omgitsashley]

Hailey, sound to sleep at the hour of 9pm woke up to a private number at 11:30. Nothing out of the ordinary as Hailey always seems to be getting strange calls around the same hour. Trying to go back to sleep she couldn't stop thinking about school, being new in town really doesn't help. Tossing and turning, Hailey put on some scummy old clothes she had (an abercrombie & fitch top (http://i231.photobucket.com/albums/ee78/CursedBlessing-X/shirt.jpg) and some old dance shorts (http://store.varsity.com/UCA/images/products/dance_pinksweatpant306.jpg)) which didnt match, but she didn't care. She pulled her blond hair up tightly and left her apartment. She started walking slowly, her face down, thinking about how all the other kids will treat her. As she looked up a gust of wind passed through her face drying out her contacts, as she rubbed her eye the contact fell on the ground. "Crap", she exclaimed. As she leaned down trying to find it, stumbling but trying to see at the same time, she bumped into a girl who seemed about the same age. The girl jumped.

Annie: "What are you doing at this ungodly hour of the night?"
Hailey: "oh, im sorry, I couldn't sleep, I thought a walk in the garden would do me some good. Then my stupid contact fell out"

[FurryPanda]

((OOC: Yes.))

Annie regained her equilibrium fairly quickly- she usually did. She hadn't ever been mugged, but she worried about it sometimes when she walked back home in her rich girl duds.

The girl she had bumped into was hunched over in the grass looking for something, and she wasn't dressed all that well. Nice enough clothes she supposed, but kind of old. She didn't seem all that perturbed by the fright she had just given Annie, or the fact that she had nearly tripped her.

She was still in the grass as she replied, seemingly cheerfully, "oh, im sorry, I couldn't sleep, I thought a walk in the garden would do me some good. Then my stupid contact fell out"

"That stinks," Annie said, in a very helpful tone of voice. She didn't actually do anything to help, heavens forfend she get mulch on her striped pants (http://www.vintagetrends.com/thumbnails_/lot/546/546-0028.jpg). A minute or two passed awkwardly as the girl looked for her contact, and finally Annie dug in her purse to produce a small LED flashlight, which she shone on the ground by the girl. "That should make it easier to find," she said cheerfully.

((OOC: And jsut in general? Dialogue is generally done with speaker tags not script writing, and madison square garden is a stadium. It does have nice gardens outside though))

[omgitsashley]

Hailey began digging through the ground as the girl watched. She was struggling to see. There were no lights in sight and her vision kept getting worse.

Hailey could see from the corner of her eye the girl digging through her purse. she thought to herself, "she could of at least helped". All of a sudden Hailey could see a bright light shining in her face.

The girl leaned over and said "That should make it easier to find"

"oh wow thanks" hailey said in a cheerful voice. "I think I've got it!"

Hailey cleaned her contact on her old shirt and carefully stuck it back in her eye. It took a few minutes to see, everything was still a blur, but much better than before. She stood up and standing in front of her was a very attractive blond with a smile on her face.

"Im Hailey York" she stuck out her hand for the girl to introduce herself

[FurryPanda]

Annie watched the girl's face light up with gratitude for her light, and she couldn't help a smile creeping onto her face. She happily exclaimed, "oh wow thanks" and after a minute or two more of scrabbling in the flower bed she stood up and said, "I think I've got it!" with the offending lens in hand. She gave it a quick clean on her shirt and popped it back into her eye, which made Annie make a face. She was extremely fastidious and would have just stashed the lens in a bag or something to deal with later.

This girl didn't seem to have any problems with grubbing around or wearing a filthy contact lens as she stuck out her hand and introduced herself, "Im Hailey York"

Annie looked askance at the outstretched rather dirty hand and shook it delicately saying, "Annie Lee."

She dropped the other girl's hand as soon as was polite, and a bit of an awkward silence spread. Finally Annie suggested, "Not the best thing if you can't sleep, but there's a Starbucks down the street. More..." she waved her hand in a small circle, "brightly lit."

And a latte would top off an already excellent evening, cheerfully dirty companion or no.

((OOC: And I have to get to bed soon, but I'll be on around 2-3PM GMT tomorrow))

[omgitsashley]

The girl shook her hand politely, And replied "Annie Lee"

Hailey thinking to herself, such a pretty name, and wondering why she, herself was wandering the garden at midnight as well. She didn't want to ask, as it was awkward enough.

There was a long silence, Hailey just kept a smile on her face from feeling completely humiliated. Annie Lee broke the silence, "Not the best thing if you can't sleep, but there's a Starbucks down the street. More.." as she was waving her hands in the air.

Hailey was excited to have met someone and instantly her fears of meeting new friends has completely faded away.

Hailey replied with a quick "YES, i mean, if you're going. I could use a latte right about now, plus i need to use the bathroom to clean myself up" as she wiped her muddy hands on her shirt.

(( OOC, im getting off to bed now as well ))

[PurpleSummer_SC]

Adrien stepped outside his apartment. He wore a jacket, a band tee, and a pair of jeans with sneakers. He pulled a lighter and a pack of cigarettes out of his pocket. He lit the cigarette, and held it to his lips, taking a puff. Smoke swirled out of his lips as he exhaled. He did this a couple more times before he noticed a girl. Blonde and cute. Good combination, he thought.

"Hey." He said to the girl, not noticing her companion.

[Annie]

[Laughy]

Vienna and Hayden were watching TV in her suite. The room was very modern and cozy at the same time. Vienna had arrived here a few hours ago to spend the weekend with her huge Louis Vuitton tote in tow. Now, they were both seated on the very comfy couch and watching My Super Sweet Sixteen reruns. They were both in their pajamas, Vienna in her Victoria's Secret shorts and tank top. (http://i193.photobucket.com/albums/z1/pinkgirl4real/V225586.jpg) They were also snacking on various snacks that they had ordered from Room Service. It felt so comfortable just lounging there and having fun like old times. Suddenly Vienna's phone rang and she picked it up to see who it was. Seeing that it was Lina, she picked it up and began to talk. "Oh, Hi, How are you?", she said continuing the conversation

[FurryPanda]

"YES, i mean, if you're going. I could use a latte right about now, plus i need to use the bathroom to clean myself up"

"Understatement of the year," Annie thought as she surreptitiously cleaned her own hands. The two girls walked towards the Upper East Side Starbucks, chatting about very little of importance.

All of a sudden, about three blocks from the Starbucks some boy in cheap clothes pulling on a cigarette stepped out of an apartment doorjamb and said, looking Annie right in the eye so she couldn't pretend to have not seen him, "Hey."

"Why are all the weirdos approaching /me/?" she thought morosely. Taking a quick closer look she noticed that he wasn't bad looking, and wasn't much older than she and Hailey. There was still the woefully unattractive cigarette and the fact that it was past midnight. Not a great way to make an introduction either way. She waved one hand dismissively, and said, "Hey." She kept walking, hoping Hailey would have the good sense to keep up with her. Being polite was one thing, being talked to by random guys at oh dark thirty was an entirely different game.

[jcardy]

Hayden -
Hayden awaited upon the arrival of Vienna, she sat with her head resting on her hand, gently tapping each finger in a rythym with her other hand. She scrolled through her phone scanning for anyone of her thouands of numbers to phone, none of which she wanted to. She had friends, she had close friends and then her best friends like Vienna and Noelle. But there was no need phoning Vienna cause she was on her way and Noelle never answered.

Finally she heard the elavator doors ding, she walked towards them. It was Vienna, she greeted her and Wanita put her stuff away in Hayden's bedroom.

Before you knew it, Hayden and Vienna already been at Hayden's penthouse (http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee100/jcardy/haydenpenthouse-1.jpg) together for an hour exchanging gossip and still they had alot to say to eachother.
They were watching TV whilst room service was brought to them, "you do know we have maids here Vienna" laughed Hayden questionnable.
They both laughed together at the spoilt brats on sweet 16, "I know we are oaded but we are nothing like those brats" joked Hayden. Suddenly Vienna's phone rang, a girl's voice was heard on the phone, "Who is it V?", Hayden asked curiously.
Hayden was shuffling through her invites, only a few left. She put them away just incase she wanted to invite anyone else.

Aubrey
Aubrey finished watching her Desperate Housewives dvd's and switched both the DVD player and plasma tv off. She got of the couch and made herself a cappucino for bed, she got to the passage way, turned around and looked at her apartment. You wouldnt of thought it was in Brooklyn. She switched the light of and went to bed.

[[ Aubrey is now asleep. ]]

[PurpleSummer_SC]

Adrien wasn't surprised that she seemed a little creeped out. He took a look at his cigarette and threw it on the ground, stepping on it with his shoe before saying, slightly louder. "Annie, right?" He asked. "I go to school with you." He added, trying not to be weird or creepy.

((changed Adrien. he's cuter now))

[FurryPanda]

Annie saw out of the corner of her eye a little flash of light, the cigarette falling probably. She didn't deem it worthy of turning her head to confirm. Even if the boy was kinda good looking, it was past midnight in a dark alley. What he said next though made her stop as if she'd run into a wall.

Annie, right? I go to school with you."

"Oh! Why didn't you say so?" heavens forfend that someone at upper east side be a weirdo, but she had seen this guy before. At least she knew he wasn't a rapist or something, she'd have heard of it by now if he was. Completely fearless now, she asked, "I seem to have forgotten your name?" Or never known it in the first place.

[xJOFLx]

It was the middle of the night, and Erin was finding trouble going to sleep. Or rather, staying asleep. She tossed around in her bed until she suddenly sat up straight and combed her hair with both hands. Looking around at the dark ceiling, she realised her eyes were already adjusted to the darkness. Erin reached over and tapped the lamp on until there was a faint orange glow in the room. She hurled herself out of bed (http://www.dalesmoor.co.uk/images/34%20big%20bed.jpg) and turned on some music with the volume down low. Her computer was still humming, and after waving the mouse around, Erin logged onto her IM account. There were the usual people on; and so she started a conversation with one of her actress friends. Ten minutes later, Erin's mind was still restless. She attacked her unread emails, but after deleting the trashy 30 and replying to another 15, she decided to get a glass of water.

((OOC: Oops ran out of time. Will edit later, because it has nothing to do with the other characters.))

[PurpleSummer_SC]

"It's Adrien." He said to the girl, after nodding when she understood that he probably wasn't a creeper, though it was late at night. He stepped closer to her. In the more well-lit area she was now in, it was more obvious that he was good-looking. His slightly messy dark hair, grey blue eyes, and symettrical features were more evident. One side of his mouth went up slightly, into a half smile/smirk that he usually did.

[FurryPanda]

Annie nodded politely when the boy told her his name: Adrien. Nice enough name, and he certainly didn't look like a creepozoid, despite the clothes and longish hair. He stepped a bit closer to her, and Annie instinctively drew back against Hailey's comfortingly nonreactive presence. Non creepy was one thing, the fact it was midnight and he was an almost compete stranger, and the street was nearly deserted was something else.

The three of them stood like that fora few seconds before Annie reminded herself to be nice. And get into a more public area. If he wanted to try something he wouldn't do it in a public place. "We're heading over to Starbucks, wanna come?" She invited cheerfully. She couldn't see Hailey's face but she pictured it having collapsed into a shocked pucker... inviting some wannabe rapist to tag along!

[omgitsashley]

Hailey stood in the dark alleyway, feeling a bit uncomfortable that Annie was talking to someone. She felt a little out of place since the two sort of know each other.

Repeating in her head was "please don't ask him to join". Then there it was, I heard the words "We're heading over to Starbucks, wanna come?" Annie wasn't looking at Hailey while she asked him, but her hands started sweating and she felt a tight knot in her stomach, not that she thought he was a rapist but she thought he was very attractive and wasn't in her best outfit.

Annie and Adrien started walking away, so Hailey quickly followed after, wondering if she will ever be formally introduced to Adrien

Hailey just kept tagging along, not a word came from her mouth. She stared up into space as the two kept mumbling words back and forth

[Laughy]

OOC: Purple Summer, i already answered lina's call just in case you missed it. Just reminding you :)

[PurpleSummer_SC]

Adrien shrugged. "Sure, that sounds great." He said. He noticed that the other girl was following them, slightly far back. "Hey, I don't think I've met you." He told the girl, who stopped gazing around to introduce herself.

--------------------------
Lina hesitated, and then said, "Oh, I'm good, how are you? I was going to ask about that party that you were, um, talking about because I saw something about a party on this blog I check every now and then--"

[Laughy]

"Yeah, the Black and White ball right?", Vienna asked her as she reached for another cracker." Yes, it's a huge deal, and very formal, why do you ask?",she said as she began to nibble on it.

[PurpleSummer_SC]

Lina was currently looking at her closet, and saw plenty of black and white. "Oh, well, I noticed that you had to be invited, and I don't want to sound like a dork, but I was wondering if you know any guys who wouldn't hate going on a date with me?"

((Hunter?! =] ))

[omgitsashley]

the wind was blowing Hailey's hair all over the place, but she didn't mind-it was helping her sweaty palms.Hailey still walking behind Annie and that boy, daydreaming of course. Daydreaming is one of Hailey's favorite hobbies now a days, mostly thinking of how her life would of been if her dad was still around. In the distance a charming/gentle voice was heard and interrupted her thoughts "Hey, I don't think I've met you".

Hailey completely froze and started thinking of something to say. "Yeah..uh, no you didn't" she said quickly realizing how stupid it sounded.

"I mean, I'm Hailey" as she giggled foolishly. She wiped her sweaty hands on her shirt, mixing the sweat with mud from the garden. She shoved her hand out for him to shake anyway. Inside she was embarrassed.

[PurpleSummer_SC]

Adrien smiled politely and shook her hand. "Here we are." He said as they stopped in front of Starbucks.

[omgitsashley]

Hailey couldn't help but notice that smile on Adrien's face. He shook her hand firmly as though the sweat and mud didn't bother him.

"Here we are" he said as we arrived at Starbucks. Hailey could smell the cigarette from Adrien's breath and craved just a puff. She recently quit smoking but with her dad leaving her mom she needed something to calm her nerves.

"You got a smoke?" she whispered to him. "I'm really craving one right about now" she looked back at Annie to see the reaction she would have

[PurpleSummer_SC]

"Uh, well...it's no smoking." Adrien said, gesturing to a sign near the door.

[omgitsashley]

Hailey felt stupid as he pointed to the door and said "Uh, well...it's no smoking".

She smiled at him and politely said "okay, I don't need one anyways. Let's go in"

[Laughy]

Vienna smiled at Lina asking about dates to the dance." No, we don't have dates at the Black and White Party, but we do have to get one for the big end of the year White Society Ball", she replied. It was kind of cute how Lina was so new to Upper east Side traditions and things, as a person born and raised in the Upper east Side, Vienna was practically taught about this stuff when she was a year old." but anyway, we are allowed to bring guests, so if you'd like to be my guest that'd be great", she said.

[jcardy]

Hayden

"No, we don't have dates at the Black and White Party, but we do have to get one for the big end of the year White Society Ball", Vienna replied to a girl on the phone

"Black an white ball, thats my party. Who is it Vienna?", Hayden mensioned consistantly, as she wanted to know who exactly was invited to her party.
Vienna continued to talk to the girl whom Hayden didnt know, "but anyway, we are allowed to bring guests, so if you'd like to be my guest that'd be great".
Hayden was struck with curiosity once again, "who? who are you bringing to my party?"

Hayden continued to sit down watching the TV pre occupied with this girl Vienna was talking to on the phone. Hayden waited until Vienna was done talking on the phone as she already kept interupting through out most of the conversation already. She sat quietly, flicking through one of her many fashion magazines looking for high quality clothing she could show off to her friends.

Saturday 30th August, 08
http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee100/jcardy/morning-1.jpg

[xJOFLx]

((OOC: I'm adding another dude because we need more! And I want one more person to roleplay..))



http://i277.photobucket.com/albums/kk71/jSQUIDGY/hunterCU_c.jpg
Name: Colin Regg
Age: 18, Senior.
Upper East Side or Brooklyn: Upper East Side
Personality: Rather sweet, and down-to-earth. Sometimes Colin gets intimidated by obnoxious peers, but won't show it and will hardly ever get angry. He's quite shy at first, but once you get to know him he can be mischevious! Very protective of the ones he cares about, Colin is much loved by girls but he will sting the naive brats. He always plays it safe, and first impressions count! Once you've been marked as untrustworthy, he won't change that image of you unless you try exceptionally hard. But if you don't care, he'll just ignore you forever.
Lifestyle: Apart from the fact that Colin is gorgeous, his family is incredibly rich, and he does dress and act as he is 'previleged to', but doesn't like to brag about it as he considers wealth like another tree in the background. His father, Wilsdorf, is CEO of a successful business, and they recently moved to the Upper East to continue his work here. Colin's parents are divorced; his mother is an artist, who lives about two hours away. He constantly has to deal with his father's many girlfriends who often come down on him, and his access to huge sums of money has led Colin to a past full of false friends and parties.
Any secrets that your friends already know: He has a few close friends that are already at UEHS, but he won't talk easily to people he barely knows.

((aw, he's adorable! =] ))

[FurryPanda]

Annie watched the short dialogue between Hailey and Adrien with her usual lack of interest, and then glanced at her watch. "Omigosh, when did it become 5am?" she thought. Jsut then Hailey asked Adrien for a cigarette, despite the sign at Starbucks saying no smoking.

Annie's lip curled up into a little sneer at that. She hated people that smoked. The odor followed them around and was so annoying. Thankfully it was 5am, she could make an excuse and leave.

"Guys, my curfew was half an hour ago, I better head home."

She turned on her heel and strode off, remembering why she disliked meeting new people so much. They were weird.

[omgitsashley]

Hailey watched as Annie left her and Adrien, wondering if she will ever see her again.

"hmmm strange, she didn't even say goodbye." Hailey mumbled to Adrien. "Will I see you again?" she asked with a smile on her face

[omgitsashley]

Name: Christopher York
Age: 17, Senior.

[PurpleSummer_SC]

((*swoon*))

Adrien nodded. "Sure." He said. His slight shyness almost took over as he smiled. "See you around." He put his coat back on and walked to the door, holding it open. "Need a walk home?" He asked her.

[Laughy]

[[ Yay, more guys! This really helps even out the ratio now.]]

Vienna sat up on the couch that she had been resting on. Glancing at the clock , she saw that it was 5 am already. She had no idea that she had slept that long. She flopped back onto the couch, it was too early to get up and yet she knew she would not be able to go back to sleep because of all the things she had to do today up until the party and the beginning of the new term. As she lay there, she though back to the night before. After talking to Lina, she had gotten her address and invited her to come shopping with her and Hayden today. After that call, she and Hayden had vegged out on all sorts of junk food that she didn't want to remember and had finally fallen asleep at 2 am.

Reluctantly, Vienna got up and rubbed her eyes out of sleep. She looked around at the living room and saw that it was still kind of dark and the beginnings of what was sure to be a rainy gloomy morning was starting to form. She picked up the phone and ordered some Hot, milky, chocolate form room service to help her calm down a bit and maybe even get a few good hours of sleep in. After calling in, she picked up her phone and called Hunter to ask about how he was getting to the Party tomorrow and also to see how he was doing.

[jcardy]

Hayden
Time passed so quickly during the time that Vienna was there. Hayden went to bed in her master bedroom on the top floor where she could see most of manhatten's upper east. Hayden fell asleep at 2.30am exactly and slept with a few things on her mind, 'whose that girl coming to my party?' and 'oh crap, my party stuff better be done by tomorrow' but the main thing that struck Hayden suddenly was 'theres a guest room'. Hayden woke up, turned to her alarm clock to see it was 5am. She slipped her feet into her heels as they were comfortable. She clogged her way down the marble stairs to see Vienna on the phone once again.

Hayden glanced at Vienna and raised an eyebrow, "theres a guest room right next to mine, if you wanna sleep there"she said nicely. "who you on the phone to V?"
Hayden heard a boy this time, it might be Hunter she thought, she sat next to Vienna trying to hear if it was Hunter. Its not that Hayden did not want to speak to Hunter, but truth is, Hayden had a history with Hunter and didnt want to let anyone to know that she liked him still.

[[ooc: Laughy, hope that last bits alright. Cause that was the thing we planned right?
Aubrey is still asleep but available for anyone to speak to her if needed. ]]

[Laughy]

[[ yeah, it's perfectly fine]]

Vienna

Vienna looked up from the phone she was talking on to find Hayden near the couch. She told Hunter to hold on and put one hand on the phone and turned to talk to Hayden." Hey, you're up early", she commented then added," Oh, i know i just forgot and fell asleep here instead", she said smiling. Hayden then asked who she was on the phone with. "It's hunter, i'm just making plans for the party tomorrow with him, have to know if we're picking him up", she said then smiled apologetically to Hayden to show that she had to go back to the call now. She knew that this might be awkward for her since Hayden and Hunter had been an item a while ago and they had broken up quite suddenly.


Hunter


Hunter had been up early that morning hoping to finish the painting he had started earlier about the view from his apartment window. The whole thing was starting to form into what he had envisioned and he wanted to be done in time for when school started. At the thought of school, he had started thinking about going back and having people ask about why he left Boston, and all sorts of questions he didn't want to answer.

He also thought about Hayden and how he would not only have to see her at the party on Sunday but also everyday in school. He didn't know if he was ready for that much contact but figured maybe it was time to get over her at least. The call from Vienna had shattered his early morning quiet and he had to answer it so as to finish up plans for transportation to and fro from the party.

[jcardy]

[[ great! :D lol ]]

Hayden
Hayden was answered back by Vienna, "Hey, you're up early".
Hayden smirked and continued to listen to Vienna, "It's hunter, i'm just making plans for the party tomorrow with him, have to know if we're picking him up".
Hayden thought it was Hunter and didnt know what to do, acting calmly she said, "c-cool, see him Sunday then" and she walked back up the marble stairs in her heels, "night V". Hayden went straight back to her room.

Her floor was scattered with pieces of paper full of writing, a to do list and had 2 more invites, one of which was Annie's. Hayden was quite tempted to throw it away but she thought differently as she didnt want to break friends with her other something silly. She shrugged, threw the invites back on the floor and sat on the chairs on her balcony, overlooking Manhatten's elite as Queen B. Wanita brought her a cup of tea to drink as she thought of the day to come.

[Laughy]

About 10 minutes later, Vienna was done on her call with Hunter. they had agreed that Vienna would call their limo driver and she and Hayden would come around and pick him up and whoever else they were going to pick up. After hanging up, Vienna went upstairs to Hayden's suite to ask if she was okay, she seemed a little flustered when she left. Vienna found her on the balcony and went closer to where she was sitting." Are you okay?", she asked not wanting to startle her.

[jcardy]

Hayden
Hayden was relaxing on the balcony in her suite, thinking of what needed to be done for the final ammendmants to the party. Vienna shortly joined her asking, "Are you okay?". Hayden replied softly, "yeh im fine, want a cup of tea", she laughed. "I just got all this preparation for tomorrow so at the moment its quite hectic, i gotta pick up my dress, it will be a surprise for everyone and i gotta arrange how we're going to arrive. Oh wait, youve sorted that out have'nt you?", Hayden smiled.

[Laughy]

Vienna smiled and grabbed one of the spare chairs and sat down next to Hayden. She picked up the teapot and began to prepare some tea for herself. "Yeah, thought it would be better if i arranged for my limo to pick us up and then pick up whoever else we want to so it's easier in case anyone gets uber drunk and we have a designated driver", she said picking up the cup to drink the tea.

[FurryPanda]

Annie
Annie arrived home and wrote a note to her mother that she had gotten in at dawn- there was no way that her mom would have been up that late to contradict that. She then crashed into her bedroom to collapse bonelessly onto her bed and start snoring quietly. She hated 21 hour days.



Jordan
Jordan had lost his signal in the park and wandered around for a while the previous evening, finally deciding to go home and compose a bit. Finding nothing to do he went to bed at ten and woke up at five for his morning run.
((OOC: Jordan is approachable, Annie is out of the picture til noon))

Hayden laughed at the 'uber drunk' comment from Vienna. She overlooked at the skyline of the Upper East Side, as the sun rose up from behind the skyline. The sky was still a little dark but had an orangey red streak across it, where the sun was rising. It was 5.30am.
Hayden turned towards Vienna, "thanks V thats a huge weight of my shoulders". She took a breath of relief, "I have a big surprise for everyone at the Black and White party. I want to tell you desperately but i think it will be better if i didnt" she chuckled.
Hayden took a sip of her tea and then turned towards Vienna, "Later I gotta go to pick up my dress, and make sure my party is up to high standards. Are you sure you dont mind coming?" she asked Vienna nicely, "We could go for lunch later then"

[[ the secrets nothing bad Laughy lol, just party stuff kinda lol ]]

[SwirlyHill]

Name: Shia Belle

Upper East Side or Brooklyn: Upper East Side

Personality: If she likes you, you pretty much have yourself a personal bodyguard, if she dislikes you, she's going to do all she can to make your life a living hell. Cunning, sly, bitchy, yet a truly loving person toward her friends, whom she would most likely take a bullet for. Hurt someone she loves, you are, to put it bluntly, screwed. She is a strong and fierce girl with immense willpower and more than capable of manipulation.

Any secrets that your friends already know (you went to rehab, cheated alot, etc): N/A

[Laughy]

Vienna smiled and raised her eyebrows, wondering what the secret could be. Knowing Hayden though, she knew it would probably be fun. "You're welcome, and sure i have to find my dress too", she replied to Hayden. "Lunch would be great too", she added and put the tea cup down. She stood up and stretched a little bit then added, "When are you leaving though because i still have to sleep for a while", she said smiling.

[jcardy]

"You're welcome, and sure i have to find my dress too", she replied to Hayden. "When are you leaving though because i still have to sleep for a while", she said smiling.
Hayden replied, "I was gonna leave for brunch but lets leave for around 10am", she smiled, "that ok?".
Hayden was happy that Vienna spent the night over and still wanted to stay with her later today.

[[ooc: thanks for the app SwirlyHill, your character is added and is great lol .. start when you want, if there is any confusion on how to start, just pm me k ]]

[Laughy]

"Kay, i'm going back to sleep now, make sure you wake me up on time or i might oversleep", Vienna said as she began to head back inside. Once inside, she headed to the guest room with her Laptop bag and her cup of hot chocolate that had arrived and checked out her gossip sites for any updates. She also checked her email, and after leaving the rest for tomorrow she climbed into the comfy, warm bed and drifted off to sleep within minutes.

[[She's asleep for now, but you guys can still call or wake her up or something if there is a need for that]]

[jcardy]

Hayden went to bed just as Vienna did as they had a busy day ahead of them. Hayden drifted off to sleep under her warm covers with a breeze coming through her balcony doors which she had left open.

[[Hayden is asleep to, so anyone who needs her then ring, text, etc .. Aubrey is also asleep ]]

[SwirlyHill]

'No, no, stop!' Shia yelped, snatching a crystal ornament from a removal worker's hands 'This thing is very expensive, alright? I said to be careful with it. If I tell you to be careful with something, what the hell do you think I mean?!'
'...Be careful?' The pubesant boy responded, his voice cracking.
'Well done~!' She replied snarkily, thumping the ornament back into his hands.
Turning on her heel, she began to rub her temples, groaning with annoyance.
'Wait...' She hissed, turning back and pointing toward him 'Where's the nearest supermarket?'
The boy stared back and her, mouth slightly open, and shrugged.
Shia growled and threw her arms up.
'So, what, I don't eat tonight, then?'
Another shrug.
'Oh for f***'s sake!' She screeched, storming across the street before knocking on a random neighbour's door.

(( If you'd be the random neighbour, just answer the door, getting her into the role play is all ;D ))

[jcardy]

[[ yeh thats a good start SwirlyHill .. my characters wont be able to answer your character though because Aubrey lives in Brooklyn and Hayden lives in a penthouse lol ]]

EDITED: Im off to bed now, bye
EDITED AGAIN: gm my characters if needed, just dont get them into wacky situations ok :D night

[PurpleSummer_SC]

((Mine can, Swirly!))

Adrien opened his eyes slowly as the sun came in through the shades on his windows and illuminated the room. He sat up, stretching his arms in the air as he yawned. He stood, walking to the bathroom and taking a 5 minute shower. He got dressed in a t-shirt and jeans, and walked back into his bedroom and into the living area, where he saw that someone had left a message on his cell phone. His cousin, Lina.

He dialed the number. "Hey, Lina." He said when she picked up. "Yeah, I'll see you then..." Adrien got a water out of the fridge, adding "drive safe." before hanging up. The deal was that Lina had stayed over for a while in the summer, and still had some of her dressier clothes at his apartment. He guessed she had a party to go to. Usually, he'd be concerned with his slightly [not much] younger sister going to a party in the upper east side. He was just glad she was getting out and being social.

Soon, Lina arrived at the apartment, and knocked on the door. She hugged her brother with a smile. "Hey." She said, and was led to the guest room. She went to the closet, trying to figure out what to wear (http://i38.tinypic.com/25utysn.jpg).


((OOC: pm me with which outfit combination you think is best haha I can't choose for Lina))

[jcardy]

[[ ooc: i think Purple Summer, number 2 with B, the handbag and locket, with the eye make up :D ]]

[PurpleSummer_SC]

((haha, that what xJOFLx thought she should wear =] ))

[jcardy]

Hayden:
Hayden was sleeping beautifully in her king sized bed, she looked so peaceful and elegant. She didnt want to wake up as she was so comfortable within how she was sleeping.
Her alarm clock buzzed at precisely 9.15am and woke her up, she groaned and turned it off. Wanita opened her curtains up and brought her in a cup of tea, "Should i wake Vienna?".
"No, let her sleep for now thanks", Hayden said stirring her tea.

Hayden got changed straight away, she put her pink Chanel dress, silver heels and silver clutch bag (http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee100/jcardy/dress-2.jpg) on. It weather was really hot outside, so it was acceptable what she wore. She threw on a cropped white cardigan for the moment but it was too hot so she took it of and put it aside on the table next to her in her room. She asked Wanita to turn the air conditioning on. Shortly the penthouse was filled with a cool breeze making the penthouse feel relaxing.

Hayden packed her basic things into her small clutch bag, including her phone, her purse full of cash and credit cards, jewellery if she was in the mood, chewing gums, two more party invites and her to do list. Her bag was placed on the counter in the kitchen. A plate of pancakes smothered in hot chocolate was placed infront of her, she slowly and quietly started to eat her pancakes watching the E entertainment on the TV.

[[ Laughy, i didn't want to wake Vienna as i thought i would be GM'ing lol ]]
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Aubrey
Aubrey woke up in a not so good mood this morning, she was starting to miss the Upper East Side lifestyle. When she was Cheryl she would have brunch as soon as she awoke, she would have gifts recieved from everyone and she had alot of friends. But there was one thing she preferred from being in Brooklyn, that was not having everyone know the little details of her life. She liked some things to be kept secret and thats how they were going to stay if she played her cards right.

Aubrey got changed, wearing her striped coloured dress with red shoes, wearing her hair down (http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee100/jcardy/cheryl.jpg). She wandered around her apartment which was looking more like and Upper East apartment than a Brooklyn one. Nothing needed doing her apartment was georgous, and she felt it too. She sat down on her black leather seti and flicked through the paes of her fashion mag.

[[ Aubrey is available anyone lol .. in Brooklyn ]]

[SwirlyHill]

(( *Isn't sure what to do with Shia* =/ ))

[FurryPanda]

((OOC: Swirly, I may be pushing my luck with PurpleSummer, but since we're both online I could ahve Jordan jog by and interact with her?))

[SwirlyHill]

(( You're more than welcome to do so, Panda. :) ))

[FurryPanda]

Jordan had decided on a whim to go to the Upper East Side this morning, and as he jogged along the much cleaner streets and breathed in the noticeably saltier air he realized this was a better place to run. The views were nicer, with little peeps of the Verrazono river, and better cleaner archtiecture. Heck, there were even single family houses this side of town! They probably cost seventy million dollars, but for a jogger they were better to look at.

He was quite happily gawking when a voice split the mid morning calm, shrieking, "'Oh for f***'s sake!" Jordan jumped halfway out of his skin, it was one thing for a cabby to scream at him if he got too close to the center of the street, but a random voice, a random female voice, sounding that furious? Jordan contemplated keeping on going and ignoring whoever it was, but some notion of chivalry stopped him, and he turned down the side street and picked up speed til he saw a darkhaired girl walking up to pound on the door of the single unit. No one opened the door and she looked furious. He figured it would be okay to leave her be, but he found himself saying, "Ummm, are you alright?"

((OOC: I hope that's okay... there aren't single family dwellings that close to midtown Manhattan, but the fact that she went to pound on a door without interacting with a doorman sort of implies that she's going to one, so I tried to react accordingly. And I assumed that Shia and Jordan don't know each other. If it actually is an apartment she's going to, it would make much more sense, and I'd be happy to edit this. Sorry if I misunderstood your post))

[SwirlyHill]

'Ummm, are you alright?'

Shia slowly turned turned to the source of the question, her head tilted to the side, a flustered expression on her face.
A smile broke into soft laughter, closing her eyes and placing a palm on her forehead, she shook her head.

'No, I- sorry you had to hear that, it's just-' Shia waved one arm off to the side, taking a deep breath and blinking a few times as she tucked a few strands of hair behind her ear 'I just moved here, I have no idea where the supermarket is and, I'm starving'.

She shrugged, pointing her eyes toward the ground before looking up again to speak.
'I don't suppose you'd know the location of one such establishment?'

[Laughy]

[[It's ok, Jcardy, i'll just rp her getting up now]]

Vienna woke up to the slightly distant humming sound of the air conditioner. She quickly got up when she remembered that she was supposed to go shopping with Hayden that morning. She got out of bed and quickly went to shower in the bathroom. After that, she went back into her room and changed into a creamish dress with a black hobo bag and black Luboutin (sp?) heels (http://i193.photobucket.com/albums/z1/pinkgirl4real/polyvoreeee-1.jpg) . After she was ready, she looked outside to check out the weather to see that she had been wrong before.

The weather had changed from gray skies to bright and sunny beautiful weather. She closed the curtains back again, grabbed her bag and headed to the kitchen to meet Hayden already eating. "Hey, glad i'm up on time", she said settling down next to her and getting a batch of pancakes on her own plate."These look very yummy Wanita", she said to the housekeeper who looked pleased at the compliment. After taking a bite, she turned back to Hayden and said," So i was thinking, why don't we just walk down to barneys or Saks and then from there walk on over to a cafe or something?".

[jcardy]

Hayden switched off the TV to see Vienna walking down the stairs, "morrrrniiiiiiiing!" Hayden said softly.
"Hey, glad i'm up on time", Vienna said settling down next to her.
"Yes you are" she laughed
"These look very yummy Wanita", Vienna said to Wanita, "SO i was thinking, why don't we just walk down to barneys or Saks and then from there walk on over to a cafe or something?".
Hayden grinned, "You know me so well". She laughed and pushed her plate aside, "They were lovely thanks Wan. Two secs V".
Hayden ran up the marble stairs to grab her sunglasses to mach her pink Chanel outfit and silver heels (http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee100/jcardy/dress-2.jpg).
She came down the stairs with her shades on top of her head, her hair straight and curled (http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee100/jcardy/fhm-hayden-2.jpg) as usual but it never looked bad. "So when do you wanna leave?", Hayden said eargerly, letting Vienna finish her breakfast.

[Laughy]

"Kay, be right here", she said as Hayden went upstairs to go get something. While Hayden was gone, Vienna took the chance to eat most of the pancakes. She was starving and thoroughly enjoyed the meal. She also took the chance to check her phone for any missed calls or messages but before she could finish, Hayden got back.

"No,i'm pretty much done", Vienna said as she got up and wiped her hands for any sticky syrup left over.After she was done cleaning her hands, she put the napkin next to the almost empty plate, thanked the housekeeper and took her bag." Ready to go", she said as she began to head to the door. The day was very likely to be a whirlwind of shopping and she was prepared.

[jcardy]

"Yep lets go" Hayden implied.
Hayden made sure she had everything as the day was going to be hectic but fun at the same time. Her phone and purse were the main things needed and she had them. "We start school Monday, so this party should be what everyone needs", Hayden added as they went down in the elavator.

"So where fo you need to go first? You got your outfit yet?", Hayden questioned. She was eager to know every detail about her party, including its guests.

[[ ooc: im off now okay .. Laughy feel free to roleplay Hayden and whatever. Bye ]]

[Laughy]

"Yep, got everything ready,let's go to Barneys", Vienna answered as they got to the elevator and waited for it to arrive. In about a minute the elevator doors opened to reveal an empty elevator.While they were in there Vienna told Hayden that she had to drop by Hunter's to give him his invitation and told her that she could wait if she wanted to. Soon after that they were outside after being greeted by the doorman and into the almost blinding sunshine. Vienna and Hayden both put on their sunglasses and first got into the Vienna's chauffeured car to take them to Brooklyn.

[FurryPanda]

Jordan watched as the girl, who looked rather flustered, turned slowly to face him. She face palmed and said apologetically, 'No, I- sorry you had to hear that, it's just I just moved here, I have no idea where the supermarket is and, I'm starving'.

She had nervously tucked a few strands of hair behind her ear as she spoke, and gestured generally at the skyline across the street. Having just jogged the length of the Brooklyn Bridge and the circumference of the Upper East Side Jordan quite sympathized with being hungry. And he found himself warming to the girl, unless she had wandered very far from her home then a rich girl teenager who knew that food came from the grocer was a very good thing.

She added suddenly, 'I don't suppose you'd know the location of one such establishment?'

He wasn't used to that kind of directness, but he said, "I passed a King Kullen on the way here...." He didn't know quite what to make of this girl- she was obviosuly rich by the way she talked and how she was standing in the Upper East like she owned the place, and she couldn't be all bad because she hadn't reacted to his sweaty odiferous glory, but she did her own grocery shopping? Very odd. "I'm Jordan, by the way, and I'll walk you there, I'm heading back that way anyway." Now it was his turn to shrug shyly. He hoped that she wouldn't think he was going to lead her down a back alley and steal her purse or something. Girls could be so annoyingly paranoid.

[xJOFLx]

Erin rubbed her eyes sleepily and yawned, not hearing her mother's knock on the door. Leanne Forest burst in, her daughter mid-yawn. What a lovely start to the day.
"Mum!" Erin laughed, half annoyed and embarrassed.
"Sorry, honey. Just wanted you to know - I'll leave you my credit card in case you want to go shopping for the party that Saliesha's daughter is holding tomorrow. I have a few things to do, and I'll be home by dinner, okay?"
"Great. I forgot about that!" Erin exclaimed, her hand instantly flying to her mouth. "Uh, yeah okay. See you later. Mwah." they airkissed, and Leanne left, leaving a strong flowery trail of perfume after her.

To wake herself up, she took a quick shower and got dressed (http://i277.photobucket.com/albums/kk71/jSQUIDGY/RoleplayOutifts/_5681619.jpg) for the day. She'd totally blanked about the party invitation - just like the others she forgot about. Out of nowhere, she shook her head, laughing. But before Erin went out and bought something, she would have to plan her route first and check online catalogues.

She clicked onto several and pasued at the search box. Her mind blanked. After rolling her eyes practically into her head and making fish-like faces, she decided to email Hayden. Her address? Simple, make the best use of Gossip Girl.

Hey Hayden,
It's Erin - The brunette you met at your mum's shop?
I totally blanked about the invite until now,
What was the dress code?
It should be a lot of fun!
I'll meet you there tomorrow then,
See you.
xxx

Erin clicked on the little red SEND button, and lounged around in her chair for a few minutes, waiting for a reply.
When it came, she got up and headed straight to her closet - Knowing full well she'd go out and buy something, but it was worth a look.
Erin's closet was a roomy, but slightly cluttered area. From the most unique customized dresses to free shoes from mum's designer friends, she had everything and more.
After an hour, Erin proudly arranged some of the things she had dug up.
She'd found the perfect outfit (http://i277.photobucket.com/albums/kk71/jSQUIDGY/RoleplayOutifts/kayser_black_opaques.jpg) - A black and greyish-white dress, with black tights worn underneath, a Chanel bracelet (http://i277.photobucket.com/albums/kk71/jSQUIDGY/RoleplayOutifts/dm2.jpg) she was given for her birthday last year, and a pair of chunky white heels (http://i277.photobucket.com/albums/kk71/jSQUIDGY/RoleplayOutifts/e_dollwht.jpg). It was a modest approach, nothing outrageous, just simple and stylish. Happy with the result, Erin carefully hung the dress up and assembled the accessories on a shelf nearby. She knew exactly how to do her hair; curled so it was wavy (http://i277.photobucket.com/albums/kk71/jSQUIDGY/RoleplayOutifts/hair-without-bangs.jpg) but looked professional.

Erin smiled at herself in the mirror. Who needed to buy new clothes when you could snap up an outfit at home? She could easily use her mum's credit card for other things. Not that she needed it, she could always use her own. Excited about the party again, Erin poured herself some soda and got ready to hit the city. She needed a new scent, and felt like splurging on earrings or makeup.

[jcardy]

Hayden
Hayden and Vienna were excited about the day to come, "Yep, got everything ready,let's go to Barneys", added Vienna.
"Yeh sure, Barney's it is", Hayden said excited.

Hayden and Vienna were shortly outside in the glaring sun, it was georgous. Sunglasses over their eyes, as they left the Charlyle Hotel getting into Vienna's chauffeured car. It was baltently obvious that these two girls were from The Upper East, who ever thought otherwise is completely oblivious to the designer clothes bought atleast everyday, their hair was to perfection and they were loaded with cash.
Hayden and Vienna were on their way to Hunter's. "So how come he is in Brooklyn V? and not The Upper East?", Hayden said curiously.
Hayden was soon alerted by a text from an unknown number, Hayden opened the message to see it was Erin.
Hey Hayden,
It's Erin - The brunette you met at your mum's shop?
I totally blanked about the invite until now,
What was the dress code?
It should be a lot of fun!
I'll meet you there tomorrow then,
See you.

Hayden forgot who Erin was for the moment, but remembered her easily by how naturally genuine she was. She replied
Hey E,
Yeh i remember u,
Oh thats cool dont worry.
The invite says, dress code is
black and white, no other
colour but grey is acceptable.
It will be really fun. I hope you enjoy it!
Yeh, you have your invite and the
bouncer should just let you in.
x x x H

Hayden packed her phone back into her clutch bag and was near Brooklyn soon.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Aubrey
After finishing her cereal, Aubrey was extremely bored. She searched her phone for Annie but thought differently, she didnt want to bother her constantly now that shes back. With that Aubrey brushed her teeth until they sparkled, perfected her hair with curls and put on the final ammendmants to her outfit. The final look (http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee100/jcardy/cheryl.jpg) made her gleam with perfection. She smiled in the mirror and left her apartment, locking the door securely.

Aubrey stood outside the block of apartments she lived in, phoning the dress an attire shop for Hayden's party. "Hi, I will be there now. The names Aubrey Parker", she said to the woman over the phone.
"Oh yes, Aubrey. The dresses are chosen by the celebrity stylist and come whenever, the stores open for you and only you", the woman implied, Aubrey stood motionless smiling thrilled about the shop being open for just her. She hung the phone up and made sure she had everything for the day ahead.

[[ ooc: Aubrey has not left from outside the apartments yet, so anyone whose in Brooklyn, visiting Brooklyn, etc feel free to speak to her lol ]]

[Laughy]

Vienna continued to check her texts as the car rolled through. Pretty soon, they were stuck in traffic and she briefly looked outside. For a moment she almost felt bad for the people in the taxis, they looked totally uncomfortable in the non air conditioned cabs. "So how come he is in Brooklyn V? and not The Upper East?", Hayden said curiously.

" It's because he was tired of being in the Upper east Side, and Brooklyn gives him inspiration for his art or so he says", she replied back then put her phone away. She looked towards Hayden who was now texting. "So do you have any one else that we need to pick up, right now we're picking up; Hunter and who ever else i ask", Vienna said looking to the front of the car.




[[ In fact does anyone want their character in the carpool thing? Just pm me or Jcardy or reply here]]

[jcardy]

[[ ooc: yeh what Laughy said. Hayden & Vienna & Hunter lol are going inot the Upper East Side shopping, etc .. party crap ]]

Hayden out her phone away, burrying it inside her bag safely. Hayden soon heard her phone beeping again, it was her mum.
Hey Hayden,
im back from Paris,
fashion show was amazing
and my collections are there too
now. I also finished addding the
diamonds to the dress you bought
yesterday. dinners at 5pm. see you
later x x x

Hayden smiled briefly and answered Vienna, "nope i dont think so".
Hayden was excited about the day ahead with Vienna, and Hunter. So far it was just those three together. The traffic seemed to move quickly, which was a good thing. But more cars seemed to come and then the traffic never ended. "Looks like we will be stuck in the car on a beautiful summers day", Hayden sighed, "Places to go, people to meet".

[[ ooc: Laughy, Aubrey is fidgeting around outside the block of apartments where she, Hunter, etc lives. Maybe they could bump into eachother cause he is waiting for Vienna and well Aubrey is being fussy lol ]]

[PurpleSummer_SC]

((Lina's going to be carpooling, I think))

[Laughy]

[[ yeah i was thinking of maybe seeing Aubrey and inviting her to come with us]]

Hunter

The sun had been shining down unreluctantly since early this morning. As he stood outside, he was glad that he had his sunglasses on unless he possibly could be blind. He sat on the front steps of his apartment occasionally checking his phone for the time. It was getting hotter and hotter by the second and he wondered where Hayden and Vienna were.

As he sat there, he noticed another person standing or nervously pacing next to him. He took his sunglasses and put them in his head to get a better look at her. "So, who are you waiting for?", he asked trying to strike a conversation.
Judging from her outfit, Hunter thought that she looked too wealthy to be in Brooklyn, but then again who was he to judge.


[[ K, great]]

[jcardy]

Aubrey
Aubrey was just about to leave for her day of shopping, her sunglasses were placed hanging from her dress (http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee100/jcardy/cheryl.jpg). "So, who are you waiting for?", a voice she heard from behind her.
The guy was not bad looking, she noticed him from somewhere before, Vienna's brother. She acted like she didnt know him at all and covered it up pretty well as the Aubrey thing was getting pretty easy now. "Hey, no one. I was just about to head out now. Going shopping. Party tomorrow", she said cheerfully. "How about you?" she added, "Oh an im Aubrey, by the way. I live on the top floor in this block". She pointed towards the block of flats that Hunter came out of.

[[ more the merrier lol .. havent heard that expression in a while. thoght id add it lol ]]

[Laughy]

Hunter

"Oh, hey, Never seen you here before", Hunter replied as he got up to shake her hand. "Nice to meet you", he added. He discreetly looked her over, she was really pretty and once again, she looked way too rich to be "slumming" it in Brooklyn. That was incredibly brave of her if she was because he had never met an Upper east Side girl who actually liked Brooklyn. Just then, Vienna's car came pulling up to the Curb and he looked towards the car to brace himself for Hayden.

Vienna


After they had gotten out of the horrible, horrible traffic jam, the rest of the drive had been pretty much smooth sailing. On the ride over, Vienna had called ahead to her Designer to make sure that her dress was all ready to go. She hoped she would have the time to pick it up that day. Soon they were at Hunter's apartment, and just as they were pulling up, Vienna saw Hunter talking to Aubrey.

[jcardy]

"Oh, hey, Never seen you here before", Hunter replied. "Nice to meet you".
"Thanks, likewise", Aubrey implied. A fancy car pulled up onto the curb, the windows were not able to been seen through, so she stopped looking and stood quietly with Hunter. Hunter seemed to know who the people were in th car as he was bracing himself for something, she smiled and thought Hayden.

The door opened, Vienna and Hayden were sat glamourously in the car awaiting upon Hunter. Aubrey smiled and waved to them both, "Hey guys" she said smoothly, "Well it was nice meeting you Hunter and nice seeing you again girls. Im off to go shopping".

========================================================
Hayden
The car pulled up on the sidewalk next to Hunter and Aubrey, she gulped as she have not seen Hunter in some time now. She opened the door for them to get in. "Hey guys", chirped Aubrey sweetly.
"Hey Aubrey", replied Hayden.
Well it was nice meeting you Hunter and nice seeing you again girls. Im off to go shopping". implied Aubrey
"Come with us, we're going too" Hayden said gracefully.

[Laughy]

Vienna smiled at Aubrey and gave a little wave to greet her. "Yeah, come with us", she added to Hayden. She hugged Hunter and started talking to him, she was trying as much as possible not to make this awkward for Hayden and Hunter. Hunter smiled at Hayden and greeted her. "Hey Hayden, long time no see".

[[Bleh, sorry for short post]]

[PurpleSummer_SC]

Lina sighed as she couldn't find anything in her closet that looked formal enough. Most of them weren't her size, either, as they had belonged to her foster mother. She took a shower, blow dried her hair straight (http://cache.viewimages.com/xc/1724014.jpg?v=1&c=ViewImages&k=2&d=17A4AD9FDB9CF1939057D9939C83F106BFED50A685F2D6595A5397277B4DC33E) and got dressed in a blue t-shirt (http://shopimages-pe.delias.com/155050_roy_w.jpg) and dark wash skinny jeans (http://shopimages-pe.delias.com/152693_irs_fr.jpg) with flats (http://store.delias.com/item.do?categoryID=442&itemID=50153&sizeFilter=&colorFilter=&brandFilter=). She put on a minimal amount of makeup and grabbed on a pair of sunglasses (http://shopimages-pe.delias.com/154084_blk_w.jpg) along with a sling bag purse (http://belladia.typepad.com/photos/thingsimade/p1010019rsz.jpg) in a tiny blue patterned print (http://k53.pbase.com/o6/40/706240/1/82391010.0PQYgTaV.bluepattern.JPG).

Lina was about to catch a cab to the place where she wanted to look for a dress. She already had her shoes and purse, but the only thing she needed was the dress. She was looking for a black one, as she had a white cropped sweater that she could throw on if she got cold. She was shocked to find that she hadn't worn her locket today, initially panicking. That was the most precious thing she owned, a locket from her birth parents. She was going to catch a cab straight away until she stepped out of her brother's building and saw some familar people, walking up to them. "Hi." She said, her shyness coming back.

[jcardy]

Hayden
"Hey Hayden, long time no see", said Hunter
Hayden felt queezy but answered natural, "Hey Hunter, howv you been"
Hayden was smiling, she still liked Hunter but didnt want to show it. She pretended she had a text and started to type random crap just to keep herself occupied. Hayden was never a nervous person, she was extremely confident and anyone whould say so. But when Hunter was around, she didnt feel like herself.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Aubrey
Aubrey turned to see a girl outside staring towards the car where everyone was, she said "Hi".
Aubrey smiled and wiggled her fingers waving and got into the car, "Guys do any of you know that girl? she is staring". Aubrey got into the car along side Hunter, Vienna and Hayden. She was kind of nervous, none of these knew that Cheryl Larter was sitting right next to them. Aubrey turned towards Hayden who seemed quieter than usual, but she was on her phone texting so she could be concentrating.

[[ ooc: sorry for short posts ]]

Annie
Annie didn't wake up. She oozed out of bed like a slug and sleepwalked to the bathroom where an icy gout from the shower brought her from zombification to mere crabbiness. Finally awake she dressed in a pink tunic and leggings, and went to get breakfast. After a heaping helping of sugary cereal and a mug of coffee she was much refreshed and decided to plan out her day a bit.

She was going to crash Hayden's party, but she needed to find something to wear. It was probably uber formal... She then grinned widely, realizing she had the perfect dress. She ran to her closet and opened it, where she found the gown (http://www.sungboutiquela.com/images/4869_purple_l.jpg) she wanted. Purple taffeta was perfect for every occasion!

She carefully laid it out on the bed, then decided to go shopping for jewlery. A dress like that only needed a necklace, but you could never have too much jewlery, at least so far as Annie was concerned. She stepped outside and started heading towards the jewlery store.

((OOC: She's approachable anywhere in the Upper East Side
And jcardy, I picked a purple dress b/c she has no way of knowing its black and white, and I think it would add more amusing Annie/Hayden dramaz. If you don't like it, I'll change it, though, ok?))

[xJOFLx]

((ARRRRRRRRGGGHH. It happened again. I clicked submit reply and the stupid internet expired or something, I lost a long post. And it was Hunter's first, too. :grr: I'll be back to rewrite it later.))

[jcardy]

[[ no problem FurryPanda .. Hayden has a surprise for everyone anyway. Its a black & White party, but Hayden didnt say she had to wear b&w on the invite. So i think because Annie AND Hayden wont be applying the dress code to themselves, that will cause so much drama lol .. everyone pretend that you think Hayden is going by the dress code for now k :D ]]

[[ yeh i have edited my post also now, but we still need others to post something so we can move along lol ]]

Vienna and Hunter were about to go in the car when they heard Aubrey comment about a girl staring at them. Hunter craned his neck to see who it was and saw that it was Lina. "Oh, that's Lina" he said as he waved her over. Vienna looked too and also waved at her willing her to come over.

[PurpleSummer_SC]

"Hi..." Lina said. "What have you guys been up to?" She asked shyly, blinking for a little longer than normal as she moved out of where the sun blazed into her especially blue irises, which were enhanced by her shirt.

[Laughy]

Vienna smiled at Lina when she got there. "We're just going shopping for the ball on Sunday, Hunter really has to get a tux and not go to the party in his paint stained jeans", she said looking to Hunter jokingly. Then Hunter laughed and turned back to Lina, "Yeah, do you want to join us?", he asked pointing his finger towards the limo.

[jcardy]

Hayden
Hayden put her phone away and was distracted by Hunter looking out the car at this girl staring at the group we had together. "Oh, that's Lina" Hunter said waving to come over, Vienna also waved to her so she would join.
Hayden was surprised to see how many people would actually want to go shopping out of their group of friends, besides it didnt look like the girl Lina liked it much. But you cant judge a book by its cover, Hayden thought to herself.Hayden would greet this new girl nicely and get to know her before making a final opinion of her. She seemed nice.
Hayden quickly turned her thoughts to the busy an hectic day ahead, hopefully most of the group could split up a bit to get everything done quicker, Hayden had alot of erins which included checking up on the club where her party was being held, collecting her dress, choosing some shoes and accessories to match and to make sure she had all eye on her at the party. Should'nt be to hard having the attention, she thought to herself. She just have to be a complete original, this included ignoring the dress code while everybody else does.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Aubrey
Aubrey sat in the car quietly as Hunter and Vienna greeted another girl whilst Hayden was sitting quietly talking to herself quietly. Aubrey liked to look best at parties when she was known as Cheryl Larter. Cheryl's style was really punky and didnt resemble how Aubrey dressed, so that was a good thing for Aubrey's sake. She thought of wearing skinny jeans, heels and a nice top but a dress should be good enough.

[[ Aubrey's RP bit was pointless,. but what yiu gonna do lol .. oh and act like your characters dont know that Hayden is going to the party not following the dress code. Its a queen b thing to do i thought. Should we GM Lina into the car or just wait for PurpleSummer to RP cause afternoon will be posted tomorrow ]]

EDITED: purplesummer is back :D so dont worry lol

[PurpleSummer_SC]

Lina nodded. "Oh, I know the comfort of paint stained clothes." She said. Being an artist, that's what she wore when she had free time at home. "Oh, um...sure...thank you." Lina added after he invited her, a smile playing on her lips.

[Laughy]

"Great", Hunter replied smiling again. Vienna smiled too and invited her into the limo. Once they were inside, Vienna took it upon herself to introduce Lina to the girls since it didn't look like she was going to do it anytime soon. Vienna still wondered why this girl was so shy, she hated that and she didn't know if hanging out with someone like that would benefit her or detract from her. "Okay, so this is Hayden, and this is Aubrey", she said pointing to each of them respectively. "So guys, is it okay if we go to my dad's designer for Hunter's tux first?", she added.

[jcardy]

Hayden and Aubrey
Their post is together so its easier i guess

Hayden and Aubrey were still sitting quietly, Aubrey was fiddling with her long brunetter hair and Hayden was texting once again. "Okay, so this is Hayden, and this is Aubrey", Vienna introduced.
Hayden looked up away from her phone, "Oh hey! nice to meet you".
Aubrey was still fiddling around with her hair, she smiled warmly "Hi Lina, nice to meet you also" she laughed.


So guys, is it okay if we go to my dad's designer for Hunter's tux first?", Vienna added.
"Uhh yeh sure, thats fine V. Suit nice then Hunter?", Hayden asked nicely.
Aubrey nodded to the agreement to go to get Hunter's suit. She turned to look at the skyline of New York whilst they were on Brooklyn Bridge, and could not wait to find a stunning dress to show off.

[PurpleSummer_SC]

Lina smiled. She was glad that the people she had met so far were so nice. She quietly thought about the dress she would buy, and if she didn't find one, she could use the old dress she had made, that was probably still in her closet at home.

[Laughy]

"Yeah", Hunter said smiling back at Hayden. Since she had gotten here, he had barely looked at her. Now as he turned to reply to her he actually looked at her for the first time in months. Those familiar green eyes drew him in like they always did, and her smile was just as good. "Don't wanna show up in Jeans", he added and turned back to looking in front of him. Soon the limo started moving along and Hunter engrossed himself in his cell phone.

[PurpleSummer_SC]

"Is that the tux place?" Lina asked as they passed a fancy building with tuxes in the window.

[jcardy]

Hayden & Aubrey
"Don't wanna show up in Jeans", Hunter added.
Hayden laughed, turned out towards the window and smirked again. "Yeh, cause you know me Hunter. Show up no following my dress code and you will be kicked out", she joked.
Hayden turned to Aubrey, "So what are you gonna wear to my party Aubz?", Hayden smiled.
"Aww i dont know yet, obviously following the dress code", Aubrey laughed, after hearing the remark she gave to Hunter joking.
Hayden joined her laughing. The limo was soon filled with warm laughs and good conversation.
"Is that the tux place?" Lina asked.
Hayden and Aubrey turned to see a posh building with suits, tux and waist coast along the window.


[[ sorry for short an cheesy post lol ]]

[Laughy]

"Yeah, i know you, you probably would do that', he added smiling at her again. Vienna was also on her cell phone when she heard Lina and Aubrey asking if they were at the tux place. "Yep, guys, this is it", she replied and grabbed her bag as the limo slowed down to a halt close to the sidewalk. Hunter, who was closest to the door, opened it and got out to let the ladies get out after him.

[jcardy]

Hayden & Aubrey
Hayden left the car, "Thanks Hunter" she said softly.
Aubrey grabbed her purse, "Haha thanks Hunter", Aubrey implied. "Wow never been here before", Aubrey lied. She had been here before, she wasnt going to say though for obvious reasons.
Hayden rummaged through her bag for her phone. She text Vhris her party planner:
Hey Chris its Hayden,
Hope the place is looking good,
cant wait to see it.
Everything better be black an
white. see you soon. Hayden

Hayden turned to Hunter, "Cant wait to see your suit, or is it a surprise?". She smiled staring at Hunter.
Aubrey turned to Vienna, "What are you planning on wearing then?".

[PurpleSummer_SC]

Lina exited the car, standing next to Hunter as the other girls got out of the car. She got a text message and checked it.

'Lina, remember you have an appointment later tomorrow

-Luella'

Lina sighed and ignored the message, annoyed with her foster mother.

[Laughy]

"You're welcome", Hunter said and closed the car door after they had all left the car. His hands in his pocket, he walked alongside Hayden and the rest of the girls as they headed towards the very luxurious building. "I don't think it is", Hunter said replying to Hayden as he winked jokingly. Vienna soon led the pack however and was the first person at the door. She was eager to finish so she could go pick up her dress.


Once at the door, she was greeted by the doorman who knew her from experience and in a few seconds they were inside the refreshingly air conditioned building. The lobby was very modern and there were very calming water fountains in each corner of the room. Vienna loved coming here and was eager to see the designer. "Guys, this is it", she said turning back to the rest of the group.

[jcardy]

Hayden entered the building with Hunter. The building was very modern and elegant, which seemed to relax Hayden. Water fountains everywhere, "Aww i remember this place V. I come here with you before i think" Hayden implied. Aubrey had been here too and enjoyed being there, she sat on a chair near her. She took a deep breath or boredom, she wanted her dress badly. She kept a smile on her face to hide her boredom.

[PurpleSummer_SC]

Lina was impressed by the building, but tried to hide it. She didn't want to seem like a complete outsider.

[Laughy]

Vienna took a deep breath, coming from the murderous heat outside this place was like an oasis. It had instantly relaxed her from the second that she had walked in the front door. She headed over to the receptionist to see if the designer was here, she also sincerely hoped he was in because Hunter really needed it by that day. "Hi Citrus", Vienna said smiling when she got to the counter.


Citrus, the receptionist, smiled widely at her once she saw who it was. "Hey Miss Vienna, great to see you and Mr Hunter again", she said with a very warm and welcoming smile. "You guys can go right ahead", she added after calling up to the designer. Vienna thanked her and turned back to the group, she motioned for them to come along and headed towards the elevator reserved for VIPs.

[PurpleSummer_SC]

Lina followed Vienna and the others towards the elevators, looking around.

[jcardy]

Aubrey got of the chair and followed Vienna to the elavator, the heat seemed to wear Aubrey out. This place soon cooled her down, her dress (http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee100/jcardy/cheryl.jpg) made her stand out from everyone else as she had bright colours on. She walked with her arrms wrapped whilst holding her red clutch bag.
Hayden started to notice the place was familiar, she used to come here with Vienna and Hayden a while back. She too followed Vienna into the elavator.

[PurpleSummer_SC]

Lina thought this place was beautiful. 'Maybe Mom has a point', she thought as she walked. Her foster mother thought she should be a model, but Lina was never sure. She was shy, and she wasn't certain that she was even that pretty, despite everyone she knew telling her the opposite.

But this place was nice.

[Laughy]

Soon they were in and out of the elevator and were inside the main office/ dressing room of world renowned designer, Ralph Lauren. Once inside, Ralph's personal assistant came to welcome them. For a moment, Vienna was disappointed that Ralph himself wasn't here to help but she quickly got over it since ,Nicky, his assistant was almost as good as the designer himself.


After all the chit chat, Vienna introduced them to Nicky .Hunter greeted her too and they got to trying on the suit that had been custom ordered for a while. Hunter went into the dressing room while they all settled in on a big, white, soft couch to wait for him. Minutes later Hunter emerged in a Classic Garbadine Suit with black tie (http://i193.photobucket.com/albums/z1/pinkgirl4real/pPOLO2-3745048_lifestyle_v330.jpg) and stood in front of them for inspection.

[jcardy]

Hayden sat next to Vienna, have you seen his su..". She stopped to see Hunter in his suit. Hayden was lost for words.
Aubrey added, "wow you look good Hunter".
Hayden implied, "yeh thats a lovely suit, I suppose i will let you in my party". She laughed and turned towards Vienna grinning.

Aubrey implied, "Well i like it, Hayden loves it", she joked. "Buy it".

[Laughy]

OOC: Bleh, sorry guys. Gotta go for now

[[ yeh same here, feel free to RP Hayden and Aubrey ]]

[FurryPanda]

Jordan directed the girl towards the supermarket, she didn't seem like she wanted much to talk, and Jordan wanted to change into something a bit more sophisticated. He did so fairly quickly and decided to go take a long walk to find inspiration for his music. It hadn't been coming of late and with Hayden's party which he had been evited to, and school on Monday it didn't seem like it would come on its own.

(( soz for reposting, i accidently pressed delte on my previous one lol ))

Hayden
Whilst they were complimenting Hunter, Hayden's phone started to ring. She answered. "Hello!"
"Oh hi, Hayden. Your gonna have to come to the club soon because i got other places to be" said Chris the party planner.
"Yeh sure. You can wait an extra 10 minutes though can't you? im just around the corner sort of"
"Yeh alright then, hurry though ..."
"Hey, hey dont rush me. I will be there in my own time"
She hung up. "Guys" she said, "i gotta check how my parties coming along. I will be 10-15 minutes max. If i take to long you know where the party is gonna be held, The Charlyle Hotel, The Ball Room".
Hayden was running in her heels to the elavator. She got it, "See you in a min".
Of course that meant 20 minutes. The elavator doors closed and the elavator slowly moved down. As soon as the doors opened, Hayden ran in her heels to The Charyle Hotel which was around the corner. "I should of done this first" she muttered to herself, "i live in the penthouse here for pete sake".
She could see her penthouse looking over the buildings and could see trees, it was Central Park. She knew she was close because the hotel was opposite Central Park, next to Times Square.

Finally she was at the entrance of the Charlyle Hotel, to see Chris standing with his clipboard/port folio of clubs wrapped in his arm. "C'mon then Hayden, lets show you the place" added Chris.
They walked towards the hotel's entrance, passing a huge water fountain that lit up in different colours glamourously. It looked better in the night. They were in the hotel and they speed walked to the doors of which Hayden's party was gonna be held. "You ready for this Hayden?" asked Chris.
"Of course i am" said Hayden excited, holding her hands together.

Chris opened the doors and there it was, The Black & White Party (http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee100/jcardy/bwclub-1.jpg). The place was great, "all we need is people, alchohol and a few decorations hanging from the ceiling and we are ready to party" Hayden added.
"Alright then, anything else you want", questionned Chris
"No, everything is black and white which is great. So the decorations hanging from the ceiling is fine. Thanks Chris".

Hayden started to inspect the place which included the bar, the lounge area, the V.I.P area which she specifically asked for, the dance floor, tables, etc. There was not one thing she disliked. Hayden went to grab her phone from her bag, "Aww crap, i left it with Vienna and co". Hayden started to walk back to the group. The weather was still hot so she was glad she was wearing her chanel dress (http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee100/jcardy/dress-2.jpg). Hayden's feet were killing from running in her heels, so she was in no rush to get back.

[[ anyone can bring her bag to Hayden lol, from the group she was with of course. She is walking back to the tux place. Aubrey's thing is above ]]

=====================================================

Aubrey
Aubrey continued to compliment Hunter in his suit, "You look georgous" kept coming out from Aubrey's mouth.
"So ..", she paused, "You gonna buy it?" Aubrey asked, "Oh and when was Hayden meant to be back?" she added.

Aubrey wanted to browse fro her dress, too much time consuming when shes with others. She liked shopping with one or two people but five was a bit much for her at times. She sat on the sofa waiting patiently, smiling

[PurpleSummer_SC]

Lina watched as Hunter walked out in his suit. Her eyes widened ever so slightly, not in surprise at him. He looked great and she knew he would before he changed. He was an incredibly cute and good looking guy. She was just surprised that Aubrey kept complimenting, and how, although Lina wanted to say something, she couldn't. She kept her mouth closed, pretending to be texting someone on her phone. She could handle being the quiet one. She wasn't going to be the person people were bored stiff with.

She decided against her instincts, and stood closer to where Hunter and Aubrey were, when Aubrey wandered away. "You do look...really nice." Lina said shyly, but sincerely, a small smile on her lips.

[jcardy]

[[ Im gonna have to GM Aubrey out of the scene soon because tomorrow evening is gonna be posted lol .. obviousl unless there are comments written lol ]]

Noelle stepped out onto the platform and tried to push her way through the afternoon commuters. Pulling her 2 suitcases behind her Noelle arrived at the centre of Grand Central Station, looking around her she took in the sight of the large station and remembered the last time she had seen it was 3 months ago when she left town.
Noelle quickly put on her large sunglasses, trying to hide her face and sat down on a spare bench inside the station. She let out a yelp as her phone bleeped, indicating another message from Hayden. She sighed and turned the phone off, stuffing it back in her jean pocket. Grabbing hold of her suitcases, Noelle made her way to the stairs leading outside.

The sun hung high in the sky, its late summer rays warming Noelle’s arms as she stepped out onto the streets of Manhattan. Raising her head Noelle looked around for anyone she might know, and jumped as someone she thought she recognized pushed past her into the station ‘Would you calm down, stop being so jumpy’ she told her self. As a car horn beeped near her, Noelle jumped again and looked ahead, where her father stood beside his car smiling at her, grinning Noelle rushed towards him and rushed into his embrace “Hey you” he whispered to her, pushing her sunglasses onto the top of her head “Glad to have you back”. Noelle looked up at her father, his dazzling blue eyes starring down at her “Shall we get you home?” he asked, Noelle simply nodded and opened the door to the passenger seat while her father put her suitcases into the boot of the car. Home. Noelle wondered if the apartment she shared with her father and brother would ever feel like that again, Noelle thoughts were interupted as her father sat in the drivers seat beside her "Ready?", Noelle nodded and her father smiled, as the car pulled way from the station and headed to the apartement, her home.
