Just Here To Be HerSelf -{{Open}}-

[Olivia Rodriguez]

Olivia hugged her chest tight trying to keep worm. Damn it was cold today. She shrugge dat her question. " I don't really know, haven't been practicing much. I'm pretty good a triple axle now."

Her eyes flicked around the rink, bright and devious. Waiting for some action. She spotted Scarlett over talking to Eric. She didn't know him too well, maybe seen him a couple times before? She didn't know but why not make more friends?

Skating smoothly over towards them, she smiled at Scarlett and air kissed both her cheeks. It was an inside joke. Get over it. Grinning at Eric she asked. " Hi I'm Olivia and you are Eric..right?" It was a cheerful little greeting. Olivia liked to feel exuberant and happy. She put her hand politely out for him to shake it. Shrugging and laughing as she did it because Olivia wasn't really the type to shake hands and greet politely. She was more of a " Hey Hon!" Type girl.

Grumbling a little bit, Sawyer decided it was already time to get something from the snackbar-ma-thing. Maybe some tea. Or apple cider. Or hot chocolate. Or...yea, probably apple cider. Sure, it wasn't the typical ice-skating sort of drink, but it still tasted hella good. Especially if it was caramel apple cider.
Of course, the caramel made it a lot less healthy, but it also made it a lot more...caramel-y.

Skating smoothly off the ice, and thankfully without even a trip, Sawyer stepped onto the rubber-y material outside of the rink. She walked slowly to the small place and quickly ordered a cider, waited a couple of minutes, and recieved it. Wrapping her hands around it, she grinned. It was really warm, and helped un-freeze her cold hands.
And then she took a sip.

Yumm.
As the liquid poured into her mouth, it warmed both her mouth, and her throat as it went down it. It was reeeally warm. Almost too warm. But for a freezing girl like her, it was perfect.

[Darcy Edwards]

Darcy finished unlacing her skates, she took them off the reveal stocking type warm and fuzzy pink socks with little hearts on them. Childish? Oh well. Her brown hair had fallen into her face she she used her thumb on her right hand to push it behind her ear that was red with the cold.

"Hey Cameron, how are you?." she then stuck out her hand to offer it as a greeting. What a Kooky girl. The questioning was going to come along any time now. Where are you from? How old are you? What do you like to do?

[Mercedes Love]

“byee…” Cede said, raising her eyebrows.

That was so rude. To just, leave. Not even say anything. Whatever. Olivia was, as of now, not her favorite. Cede broke the circle she had been skating in, and attempted the triple axle Olivia had mentions.

First time was rough, and she fell, hard,. She landed on her side, in the middle, and on her face. Second time was better, she didn’t fall, but the landing. Thrid, time. Perfect.

[Cameron Vought]

“I’m fine.” He stated, still taken aback by the approach, but slowly adjusting to it. After all, talking with someone would ease his mind off of his father. “And you?” he asked, letting his gaze return to Darcy after examining her socks. He then thought about that hot chocolate he wanted. Just give it a minute or so, he’d get bored and he would get up to get some. Not for any one to take anything personally but it was just like Cameron to get bored with a conversation and he would involuntarily just...get up. His mind would seemingly float off somewhere if he didn’t like where the conversation was going and his body would follow it, literally.

So, thinking about the hot chocolate would sooner or later have Cameron up out of his seat and making his way towards the concession.

[Darcy Edwards]

Darcy fiddled with her socks and said "I'm good." she then looked around the ice rink because she could tell that her presence really wasn't wanted here. What a shame. You try to be friendly to someone and they take it for granted.

{Okay, Darce just ask him one of those brilliant question's of yours} she thought to herself. {Just don't try to come on to him.} Damn that would be hard for her. She often flirted with people without notice. "So uh Cameron what do you like to do in your free time?"

[Scarlett Lehoux]

Scarlett was almost relieved to see Eric approach, just so that she could have someone to talk to. And a gorgeous, sophisticated guy wasn't an awfully bad selection if you had to choose. Scarlett was glad she had gotten to know him, and her appreciation grew in that moment.

"Miss Scarlett."

"You sound like a game of Clue, but I'll play along. Monsieur Eric." She grinned, finished with the lacing of the skates. She stepped down next to him on the ice, almost gingerly, so as not to loose her balance and fall. She wasn't amazing at ice-skating, but she was steady and could achieve a few leaps. Nothing special, but she was a model, not Sasha Cohen.

"So, anything--" Scarlett had been about to ask him if anything was new when Olivia came rushing over in the usual energetic, bustling way of hers. Scarlett didn't fail to notice the death glares she was recieving from Mercedes. Like Liv cared. God knew it was a good thing that she didn't. "We have a visitor," She said in a laughing, light tone to Eric, rubbing her white-cashmere-gloved hands together.

"Hey, Livs." She recieved the air kiss, resisting the urge to stand on her tiptoes. Why did she have to be so small?

Um, as if petite is a bad thing.

[Eric Deniel]

With her remark, Eric's reason for enjoying conversation with this young woman, was once more revealed. She wasn't stuck up, or totally into herself at all, which was definitely not a bad thing. That and her good-natured side only added to a well balanced personality. No need to be on top of the social ladder and a class A-witch at the same time. Scarlett managed to crush the stereotype of people in their positions. In all honesty, the girl was a breath of fresh air.

Softly chuckling, the corners of his lips curved into a full smile, and he would have replied to it had another individual not suddenly appeared. Straightening to an upright position, he took the girl's hand into his own, lightly shaking it before dropping a light kiss on the back. So he was a bit old-school upon first meeting any lady. Sue him. "Yeah, the name's Eric. Nice to meet you Olivia," he said as he released her hand, nothing fake about anything he did. Not saying anything stupid, that is, 'I take it you two know each other', since it was pretty damn obvious that they did, he glanced from one female to the next.

"You ladies enjoying your night?" he asked then, currently unmoving on the ice. If he did, he'd be moving away from the individuals he was currently conversing with, and he wasn't ready to do that. They were both nice, and finding someone else to keep his company wasn't necessary.

[Cameron Vought]

‘Hot chocolate.’
It was the first thing to come to mind when her question was asked. Gosh, he was so stubborn.
“Uh, many things. A variety of things. Sports?” he stated questionably. His mind then went blank.
“Erm, would you like some hot chocolate?” he asked, trying to be polite in so many ways. He didn’t want her to feel ask if he were blowing her off. In fact, he wasn’t, he just had a lot of things on his mind. He didn’t plan on staying long anyways. He had to go help his dad and his sister re-arrange the living room and deck out the house with lights. After all, Christmas was on it way.

Maybe he would skip the drink after all. He really did have a lot to do. Or maybe he’d take it with him. Either way, he wasn’t really able to be gradually talking, nor was he particularly in the mood for it.
Cameron waited for her response calmly and let his eyes trail over and across the ice where he spotted a couple of people that he knew.

[Darcy Edwards]

Darcy smiled at Cameron and said "I'd love some, it's so cold out here." she then opened up her shirt just a bit to take her money out of her bra.

Classic.

She giggled and said "Sorry for that peep show, I didn't want my purse to get stolen." she then tied the laces of her skates together and got up. This boy was cute. "Uh Cameron wanna hang out sometime?" she really wanted to get to know him more he sensed that he had something on his mind.

[Kerstin Vought]

‘Slut or babe?’

Cameron glanced away as Darcy had opened her shirt a bit. It kind of disturbed him in a sense of not knowing why she had done it. She was probably the average slut; at least that was what he was thinking. He hated when girls had to come on to you just to get attention, why couldn’t they all just be themselves? Either way, this girl did not impress him as in issue of going farther than friends.
Sure, he wouldn’t mind getting to know her a bit more, but this attentionated attitude had to go. In all, as much as it seemed to thrill some other guys, Cameron wasn’t all gun-hoe for a ‘showy’ girl.

“Don’t worry about paying, I’ve got it.” He stated and stood from the table. He then reached into his pockets, rummaging around for some loose change or dollar bills. Pulling out two dollars in change, he held up one finger towards Darcy that signaled he’d only be a minute. He’d give her the warm drink, but then he would have to go, he needed to straighten things up with his family; he actually agreed with his sister, it /was/ silly.

After handing the cashier the eight quarters and receiving the drinks, Cameron made his way slowly back to Darcy, careful not to spill the contents within his hands. Setting the drink in front of Darcy, he didn’t bother to sit back down, but he did agree that the two could hang out sometime. He wasn’t, yet, going to press the issue of her acting the way she did.

[Darcy Edwards]

Darcy smiled and called out "Thanks." as he walked away. {I hope he doesn't think that I'm a slut.} she was commonly misinterpreted for being one because she was such a people person.

She had spent many hours at home crying because that name taunted her where ever she went. She shook the thought out of her head then sighed and sat back down again. Not quite ready to leave. She sipped her hot coco and watched other people skate.
