The paper was covered in her several drawings and she stared at it like it was an alien creature.


Sighing she folded up the picture and put it on the dresser, not realizing what she'd done.


Jas crawled off the bed and jumped in the shower.

Holy shit, man. Elijah's jaw dropped as he watched Ian and Faye kiss. "Dang." he muttered. It was in those moments Eli realized that all he'd ever be to the gorgeous blonde was a fallback--if Jasil and Ian didn't work, Eli was in third place for her affection. How did he come to this conclusion? It was obvious in each kiss. Although the girl liked to put on quite a show, something about each of her kisses seemed so significant and distinct. Cas's was clearly a past love type of thing, Jasil's was passionate as hell, and Ian's was hard to describe--as if Faye herself couldn't pinpoint her feelings either. A sigh passed his lips, but he pretended to shrug it off like it was nothing. How did one girl cause so many people to fall? As if she were some sort of Aphrodite. "Well, that happened." he huffed with a lighthearted smile.


Caroline wasn't sure how to react. Everything seemed like it was in slow motion, which made everything hurt a little bit more. Unlike her brother, Care wasn't hurt because it was Faye, but simply hurt because it was Ian. Her lips hung ajar as she watched the two, but the brunette couldn't stay to watch any longer. "I think I'm going to hit the hay. Later, punks." she stammered. Caroline hardly hesitated when she spoke, yet as each word fell out into the open, it felt as if someone was chocking her. With that being said, the brunette recollected her thoughts and left towards the spare bedroom, immediately closing the door behind her.
You aren't with him anymore. You can manage. Don't get your panties in a twist. He can choose who he wants. Such thoughts flooded the girl's mind as she sat on the edge of the bed.

@PenguinFox @TheLovelyDead
 

Faye sat on the couch in thought. What is this? Why does it hurt inside? Why does it feel like everything is caving in? I don't like this. I don't like this feeling. Oh God, what kind of hole did I dig for myself? It's all the washed up emotions. Im a washed up piece of trash, that's what I am. I've floated for so long and now it's fight or flight. Knowing me, I'm choosing flight. With that, the blonde excused herself to her shared bedroom. The room was vacant, and it seemed like the perfect place to sort things out for herself. Faye ran a hand through her wavy hair as she walked towards the bed, however, distinct folded papers caught the female's eye. Stopping in her tracks, the girl turned on her heel slightly and started unfolding. Regardless if it were her property or not, the meddlesome teen peered at the drawings in pure dismay. Was this how Jasil felt? Did Faye break her heart with a kiss? The blonde went limp, seating herself on the floor and leaning up against the bed's side. "How do you make a person feel when they've never felt before?" Faye muttered as her fingers traced the images.


Caston nodded with a soft smile in response.
"Sounds like a plan." he said. With that, the male took one of Sky's hands from around him and started walking the forest path away from the cabin. "I'm sure all is well inside." he reassured, though it was mostly to himself. Cas couldn't shake the feeling he was missing something, but he shrugged it off as he peered over to Sky every now and then. "Your eyes are doing that thing again." he whispered softly by her ear. The brunette smiled as he watched her, though. With the scenery and their feelings out in the open, Cas felt at peace.

@Jasil @PenguinFox @Toxic Infinity @Skylark
 
As they walked hand to hand Sky was so happy "i told you the other night they usually do that when I'm around someone I really like and that's really cute" she replied she whispered back softly she smiled slightly. "I used to come here when I was little my family's friends had a cabin here and I used to walk this path" "there's a beautiful place up a head that you must see" Sky said as they were almost there. Up ahead was a beautiful waterfall it wasn't huge but it was magnificent. Sky remebered her old memories here and her smile grew. @TheLovelyDead
 
Jasil finished up her shower and came out in shorts and a tank top.


Seeing Faye in the room she put on a false smile.


"Hey." She mumbled and began brushing her purple tendrils.


Glancing in the mirror she could see Faye in the reflection. She could also see her looking at the drawings.


Jasil froze, unsure of what to do.


@TheLovelyDead
 
Dwyer looked around at everyone leaving and sighed. "I guess that's the end of the game. I suppose I'll retire for the night as well." with that he stood up and walked to his room. Ian got up, silently and moved to his room. His movements were smooth and deliberate and his footsteps were silent, it was as if he were a ghost. He went through his things until he found his old 'friend'. Going to the bathroom he stood there staring at himself in the mirror. He took off his shirt and examined his scars. "There's barely any room for any more..." he muttered to himself. He closed his eyes tight noticing his jaw was trembling. He felt a hot tear drip down his face. "What are the odds that I fall for two girls, and can't have either?" he said to no one. He shook his head, a small smile appearing as he thought of his misfortune. He opened his eyes and when he did the first thing he saw was the razor blade on the counter. He stared at it, biting his lip. (I told I could drop a feel bomb.) @Jasil @TheLovelyDead @Toxic Infinity @Skylark
 
Eli was left to his lonesome. Not that he really cared, though. He watched everyone as they retreated to their rooms. With a deep breath, the male did the same. However, once he got to the bedroom door, it appeared as though he had been locked out. "Care? I know you're in there." Eli huffed, placing his forehead against the door. "Open the door, will you?" he whispered. Obviously she wanted to be alone, but that didn't mean she had to be in complete solitude. Hearing the lock turn and the door open, the siblings were confronted with each other--each having the same look about them. Once Eli entered, Caroline closed the door again, but without another word, the brunette ran towards her brother and gave him a harsh embrace. "Geez, Care, chill." he said as he took a few steps back with her clung on like Velcro. "We shouldn't have done this, E. We should have just had a meet and greet and left." Caroline's words were muffled in his chest. "Stop. You're just emotional, okay? Get some rest or something. Take a walk. Do something to get your mind off of all this." Elijah replied. He couldn't look at his sister at this point. The male was trying to find words to comfort her while he was still battling whatever emotions riled up inside him. "Okay, okay." she said, pulling away and wiping stray tears. "I'm going out to the docks then. It'll clear my head." Caroline added with a nod to herself. Eli gave her a smile in agreement, but once she was gone, the teen sprawled out on the bed. "Thanks for the help, sis." he muttered as his eyes stared blankly towards the ceiling.

 

Faye tried to come up with some response to give to Jasil when she came back in the room, but as soon as the blonde saw her, words seem to crumble within. "Hey." she replied faintly. Her gaze turned back to the pictures in her hands soon after. Say something. My God, Faye. Talk to her. The girl battled the voices in her mind, yet it seemed as though she had already lost. With a final breath, Faye got up from the floor and walked towards Jasil, looking at her eyes through the mirror's reflection. "Tell me what I did wrong. Tell me what I need to do. I need you to help me. Please." the blonde pleaded. As she spoke, she found her way right behind Jasil. Everything inside her was like Pompeii. She didn't have a place to turn, to hide, and she didn't know how to deal with the emotions that boiled inside her. For years she kept things like that hidden--her entire life was built on the mask of lies she created--yet now it all seemed to come crashing down because the girl was loose with her lips. "Please." she repeated, only this time it wasn't towards Jasil, but to herself.

Oh, where do we begin?


The rubble or our sins?





Caston's smile never seemed to fade. He was in his own sense of bliss as he walked with the brunette beside him. "I didn't know little Sky used to walk these very trails. Now I feel honored." he joked with a short laugh. As they got closer to the waterfall, Cas wasn't quite sure if such things were reality or make-believe. "Ah, it all makes sense now. I've been dreaming. That must be it. After all, I couldn't have an extraordinary girl beside me and a scenery that's awe-inspiring. A true fantasy, really." he added playfully.

@Skylark @Jasil


{Honestly, I like how everyone is all, "Goddamit, Faye." while Cas and Sky are all lovey-dovey next to a waterfall. What kind of alternate universe are they living in? Because I'm pretty sure the rest of the gang would prefer that one over their current situation.
xD }
 
Ian grabbed the razor from the counter and walked over to his bag again. Pulling out a notebook and a pen he began writing. He scribbled things out a bunch of times until he finally tore the paper out and threw it across the room. He slammed his fist on the floor creating a loud bang that anyone nearby his room would have heard. Picking up the pen again he tried once more; 'Guys, I'm sorry.' but that's all he could come up with. He set the notebook down on the bed and went back to the bathroom. He watched himself in the mirror as he almost unconsciously brought the blade to his neck. After a few seconds of holding at the his jaw clenched. "GODDAMMIT!!" he screamed and threw the blade at the mirror. It bounced and landed harmlessly in the sink while Ian slumped to the floor, tears streaming down his face silently. He hated himself for not being able to choose one side or the other; life or death. He felt so pathetic and discarded. He couldn't move so if anyone were to walk in they would see him lying on the floor in the bathroom. @Toxic Infinity

Sky smiled. "That does make a lot of sense" she said. She moved closer to him "you know how long I had waited to kiss you" she said with another sparkle in her eye. She put her arms around his neck and she kissed his cheek softly. "Pretty much ever since I got to know you." She kept her arms around his neck she then kissed him once again kissed his lips slowly but pulled back still staying close to him. She smiled softly at him as she gazed into his dreamy eyes and started to get lost she loved being close to him. {yeah probably xD } {THIS RP MAKES ME SO FREAKING HAPPY!!} @TheLovelyDead
 
Jasil turned around and was toe to toe with Faye.


Her throat felt dry and she couldn't find the words.


"I-I don't know what to do. I don't know what you want me to help with. But you did nothing wrong, i was the one who fell for someone I couldn't have."


Jas gazed at Faye's lips.. The lips she'd kissed... But also the lips Ian kissed.


she heard something out in the house.


She moved past Faye and ran through the home, finally finding Ian in the bathroom.


"Goddamnit, what happened?"


She collapsed next to Ian on her knees.


(Sorry guys)

Elijah was still aimlessly staring at the ceiling. What was love good for anyway? Why was it necessary? All it seemed to do was bring hurt to everyone it touched, and the only lucky ones that benefitted were those in movies--at least, that's what he assumed. It wasn't until the kid heard a thud in the other room that he broke out of his deep thought. Jolting up, Eli furrowed his brow as he went to check out the source of the noise. To be perfectly honest, it didn't come to a surprise when he realized it was from Ian's room. Ever since the siblings joined the group, Eli felt as though something was off about the former band mate, and now it was clear. The male noticed the razor in the sink; the metal gleaming as the light reflected off of it's surface. While Ian was preoccupied with Jasil, Elijah took it upon himself to take it. Stuffing the blade in his pocket as the scene developed, Eli finally turned towards the victim of the situation and stared in disbelief. "Talk to us, man. What the hell is up lately?" he inquired with his arms crossed in front of his chest. If anyone were to look in his eyes, it was obvious Elijah was concerned--more than that even. He didn't understand why Ian would go off the deep end like this, but something in the back of his mind had a clear answer for it, Eli just didn't want to acknowledge it.

Ian swallowed hard. His friends now knew. He didn't want them too, but now they did. His throat was dry and scratchy feeling. He shook his head in response to their questions. "I'm fine.." he croaked. He had become so used to hiding any emotion in him except humor and now he couldn't stop. He couldn't tell them, even if they knew. He stared at the plumbing beneath the sink. "I- I can't..." he closed his eyes taking a breath. "Nobody was supposed to see this." @Toxic Infinity @Jasil

Jasil shook her head "Ian, you are allowed to be broken... God knows we are all hiding something."


She paused.


"I'll admit something if it makes you feel better... I've been starving myself....


See, we're all broken."


She shrugged and rested herself against Ian, trying to comfort him.


@PenguinFox @Toxic Infinity
 

Faye felt like she was falling. Whether it was in love or the abyss of her own self doubt, she had no idea, but the girl was sinking and she didn't know who else to turn to. It hurt to look at the purple haired girl in front of her. It hurt to hear Jasil's hopeless words; words that were equally as helpless as Faye's. The blonde's eyes wandered from the girl's eyes to her mouth, and she had half a mind to kiss her again. Maybe that's what it took to get rid of such conflicting feelings. Perhaps Faye needed something to distract her from the thoughts closing in on her. She was about to take action--for once in her life--until she watched Jasil leave the room in a purple streak. The blonde shut her eyes and bit her lower lip as if she had just lost something, and deep down she knew she did. "You're a real piece of shit, Godrick." she mumbled to herself as she left the shared bedroom. The game was over. There was nothing to hide behind now and Faye had nowhere to run. She either had to confront these feelings or rebuild what she started all over again. The only person who she could rely on now was herself and Caston--like old times--yet the male was nowhere to be found. The female made her way out of the cabin, making sure to grab her stash of cigarettes, and wandered the grounds in an attempt to find her makeshift family. She had already lit up one of the cigs and practically smoked it through before catching a glimpse of Sky and Caston across the way. "I'm glad some of us get a happy ending." she told herself with a scoff. Faye dropped the burnt out cigarette and stepped on it before hiding behind one of the various trees alongside the pathway. At this point, she didn't want to break anyone else's happiness, so she watched them from afar. Caston needed this. After years of keeping up with Faye, she knew darn well that he needed a break, and that's exactly what he was getting: pure paradise in everyone's hell.


Caston's cheeks exposed a red tint when Sky placed a kiss on his cheek.
"I didn't realize you had feelings for me since then. If I did, things probably would've gone a lot different." he said with a low laugh. He didn't suspect the girl to kiss him, but after she pulled away, he returned the affection with his own kiss. Every time they got closer, it seemed as though things would be okay. Everything was fine in the company of Sky, and it felt as though Cas could finally take his long deserved break around her. However, the male curiously looked around the scenery again, and to his surprise, he caught a glimpse of a blonde running the opposite direction.


{Oh gosh, the drama.}


@Jasil @Skylark
 
"I'm fine." Ian repeated deciding on how he would handle this; he would ignore it and pretend it never happened in hopes it would go away. He stood up shakily. "I'm fine. Nothing happened." an alibi formed in his head. "Just going to take a shower when I fell. No big deal, it happens." he shrugged and looked away from the too. He knew they wouldn't buy it but he hoped desperately that they at least would go along with it. The last thing he wanted was to talk about 'his feelings'. He only had one after all; goofy. That's all he ever was, the joker who was always happy. That's how it would stay. He definitely didn't want to speak about things with Jas, not that he harbored ill will against her, but it would be too awkward. @Jasil @Toxic Infinity
 
Jasil stood, unsure what to do. She'd admitted a secret hoping to help him but he didn't want her around. It was obvious in his eyes.


"Fine.... Be more careful next time."


She turned on her heel and left going back into her room.


Seeing Faye gone, her heart felt heavy.


Jas began walking around trying to find her, and eventually saw the blond with a cigarette.


"Faye."


She quietly as she approached.


@PenguinFox @TheLovelyDead
 
Sky didn't notice what Cas noticed she didn't see Faye running she was just too focused on The brunette infront of her. they were still so close to eachother Sky still had her arms around his neck "The feelings returned almost that exact moment I saw you when I came out of the van." "When I heard Faye saw your name in the car i was a little shocked I thought it couldn't be you but you don't even know how happy I was to see you." "Cas you make me really happy and I will continue to tell you that" "feelings are confusing but mine are pretty clear for you right now" "you make me forget about all of the pain in my past and everything happens for a purpose" "I don't think you know this but when I was younger and I moved to Seattle it was because I was sick and I needed help and this place here pretty much cured me." "The worse part was I had to say goodbye to you but now you're back in my life." all of what Sky said was true the girls feelings were pretty clear now there was a huge spark when they kissed and so much more. She soon all of a sudden saw blonde hair but she thought it must have been her imagination @TheLovelyDead
 

Elijah shook his head, "People have to break before things get better, Ian." he replied. As Jasil spoke, the male didn't really know what to say, but after a moment of thought he got up the courage to state his own confession. "If we're admitting our faults: I went to jail because I thought enveloping myself in illegal drugs would take the pain away from losing someone." Eli stated bluntly. The only other person who knew was Caroline, but there were things he forgot to mention even to her. The kid shrugged it off as if it were nothing, yet it seemed like such a heavy thing to throw out in the open like that--besides the weight of an attempted suicide. Watching Ian stagger to find an excuse was nerve wracking, though. Instead, knowing Ian's play, Elijah went along with it. "Right, okay. Nothing happened." he agreed with a small nod. It was only then that Eli knew his original assumption for the cause of Ian's behavior was more than correct. He watched as Jasil left, giving the teen the perfect opportunity to snap some sense into his band mate. "So, chicks, right? What're 'ya going to do?" Eli chirped, however his eyes had quite the opposite look within them. If Ian wanted to still play the jokester, Elijah might as well join him.

@PenguinFox
 

Faye was already far away from Cas and Sky when she lit up another cigarette and placed it between her lips; the same lips that couldn't seem to keep shut. It was the first tear in years that the blonde shed, and it felt as though it burned as it fell from her green eye. The girl shook her head, trying to pretend it wasn't there, but she at this point she couldn't stop the emotions within from breaking outward. It was then that she heard Jasil's voice; however, Faye didn't have the courage to look up at her. Instead, she quickly wiped the tear from her cheek and took another puff of the cancer stick hanging from her mouth. "What was the noise?" she asked, the words falling out into the open space between them. She was trying to avoid a deep conversation. Faye was breaking and she knew she couldn't hold back anymore tears if things started getting personal.


Caston tried to follow the direction of the blonde locks that left the scene, however, they disappeared around a corner.
"I suppose their done with their game then." he muttered with furrowed eyebrows. The whole thing seemed so strange, yet he didn't feel like leaving Sky's side.

Ian sat on the edge of the tub with a sigh. He was glad that the two were...not necessarily understanding, but they were going along with him at least. He ran a hand through his hair. "Yeah, you said it." he said with a half smirk. "You can't tell anybody about this. I mean it's pretty embarrassing, falling going to take a shower, I mean what am I 80?" he laughed a little. and looked down at the floor. "Hey, you remember Jessica Williams? The girl with a face only a mother could love?" he asked quietly. He looked up to him, a small smile forming. "And that time when we found out Vinny was with her at the park? So we go down there all quiet like and hide in the bushes for a while. We sat there watching for who knows how long and when they finally came along they were all over each other. He begins to pull off her shirt and Derek jumps out and yells 'No Vinny, don't do it you're still young!'" Ian cracked up and started laughing pretty hard. In between laughs and taking breaths he continues the story. "So then Vinny comes after us, but she had already undone his belt so his pants go down and a few steps later so does he, so he starts crawling after us shouting and stuff." Ian wipes a tear away from laughing so hard. He knew Eli knew the story, he was with him, but he loved telling that story. @Toxic Infinity
 
Jasil crossed her arms next to Faye.


"Uh Ian f-fell, in the shower."


She shrugged and then looked at Faye.


After a few moments of silence Jas felt like she was going to explode.


"Just talk to me. Damnit what do I have to do? You asked me to help you but I don't know what you want me to help with."


Jasil let out a huff, her outburst not making her feel better.


She looked away from Faye and closed her eyes

Eli couldn't help but laugh with Ian as he started to retell the story of way back when; the band days. Ah, gotta love 'em. Time and time again, Ian would periodically remember a good blast from the past and share it with those that would either get as much of a kick out of it as he, or those that would remember the fond memories. "Good times, good times." he said with a shake of his head. It was hard to recollect himself, but honestly it seemed so great that Elijah didn't really want to. Did they really have to talk about the serious stuff? What was the point anyway? However, the nagging voice of his older sister--which liked to scold him in serious situations--decided to convince the male to coax some truths out of his friend. Hell, maybe hand get a legitimate answer. "Oh, what about Olivia Grace? The preacher's daughter? More like the most non-religious girl I ever dated. Man, do you remember the crap she pulled that summer? Coaxing me to jump into a lake bare naked and boom, I'm pulled in by the coppers." he said theatrically. The teen laughed for a moment before scratching the back of his neck. "Blondes are a piece of work." he slyly added. It wasn't enough of a hint to raise alarm, but it was definitely there.
