Aria hummed lightly to herself as she waited, admiring the furnishings of the house's front door. After all, the girl was attempting to distract herself from the thought of who may answer to her knock. It was unnerving, plus a slight part of Aria seriously wanted to see who her new neighbors...
It was a warm, sunny morning in the town of Locklyn. Aria was asleep within the confines of her bedroom, her eyes shortly fluttering open at the sound of a moving truck awakening the girl from her slumber. Her mother hadn't given all too much away about the new neighbors - only that they had a...
Mimi's face lit up as Jack somewhat admitted him and her sister dating. Yay, I can finally be a flower girl now! The little girl grinned at Jack before turning her attention to her dolls secretly stashed under the table. This way, she could play without missing any of the 'grownup talk' that she...
Pressing her lips together firmly, the woman decided to let Mimi off - but only at the expense of the guest in the house. After time had passed of the group continuing to eat what was upon their plates, Tamison was surprised at her family. By now, they would have embarrassed her by telling Jack...
At Jack's previous joke, the man chuckled. After all, he remembered his own financial situation at that age. He really just survived on what he had, yet it wasn't until he had met his wife did he provide for more than he needed. Listening to what Jack had to say about 'what they got up to', she...
"Interesting." The man said, but then raising his brows to hear the question to which Jack had returned with. A man of curiosity. That was a good thing. Especially for Imogen. "Oh, I'm an engineer and my wife is a school teacher." He motioned towards a set of tools sitting on a small table in...
"Oh, she's--" Gen's mom was shortly interrupted by the loud rumble of two feet running down the staircase. Sure, Mimi was a petite girl, but she sure as hell knew how to make both noise and an entrance. If you didn't know any better, you'd think it was her falling down the stairs, but sure...
As Gen walked towards the door, Jack following her, the girl sighed, tempted to say: "I hope you're ready" but thankfully retracting from those words. After all, the last thing she wanted was for Jack to be uncomfortable and say something that her family wouldn't take so lightly.
Exhaling...
Beginning to tap her fingernails against the glass in a nervous manner to his question, the taxi driver then glared at the girl, causing her to stop immediately. "Uh, their cool, I guess. They're a bit overwhelming when it comes to meeting new people. My little sister is the worst, she will...
Pressing her lips into a thin line at the boy's question, Gen fiddled with her fingers. She was going to answer honestly. "Well, I told them that I was bringing someone. I just didn't tell them that I was bringing my roommate. Who was a guy. Who was named Jack. And wasn't Christina." Usually she...
That weekend...
Imogen was ready. Her makeup was done, plus she had dressed up for the dinner. After all, her mother always loved the girl to put some effort into her appearance. Especially considering that Gen only visited once every two months. It was difficult to fit in the time for all the...
"Oh, a double date..." Gen trailed off. She knew that her and Jack were there just to smoothen over Todd's mistakes. But the aspect of even slightly being on a date with Jack made her smile. She was happy for Christina. At least she was going on a date with the guy she liked who had enough balls...
Gen stood at the checkout, paying for the lingerie as well as swiftly making the exchange with her money and the bag. Sighing, the girl turned around to notice the absence of Jack whom stood by the entrance. And from what she could vaguely make out, Todd was there also talking to him. Of course...
Exhaling a breath, the girl relaxed as Jack finally shared his thoughts. Her shoulders were tensed up, however levelled out after. In somewhat of a way she had been expecting for him to say something like "you look ok, now can we leave?" not "pretty damn good". That was definitely unexpected...
Not taking much notice to Jack at first since she was having difficulty on swapping her bra and the lacy one over, especially as she didn't want or didn't need to flash him more than he needed to see. Sure, she acted like a confident girl on the outside, but in that moment, her heart was...
Mouth gaping open in astonishment, Gen blinked a couple of times at Jack. Surely he was joking? Or was he? She could never tell with him, and perhaps he was bluffing, but nonetheless, she was willing to take him up on his suggestion. "I'm guessing you don't want to be in here alone so..." She...
Imogen sailed through the store, looking around and examining all the lace and satin items. She loved the shop, after all and it would be ridiculous to not acknowledge the lingerie. Just about anyone within a 5-mile-radius could sense Jack's discomfort, so once one of the ladies approached him...
According to plan? What was Jack talking about? Did he have a plan? A plan for what? Pondered the curious girl, however the sudden appearance of Todd soon pause her train of thought. Watching as the two boys spoke together, Gen couldn't help but smile at Todd's act of drama regarding Jack's...
Stepping back from Jack, his almost disgruntled tone causing her to frown slightly whilst she watched him pay for the clothes. However, the strange exchange of his own personal clothing only led to Gen's disbelief. Why would he give away his clothes? He couldn't possibly not have enough money...
Imogen sat upon an island of seats within the middle, outside of the men's changing rooms, her eyes drawn busily to her phone screen. She scrolled through her social media, anxiously waiting for Jack to exit through the curtains, although he was taking a bit longer than she had predicted he...
