Alone in the snow. [open to all]

[Paris Hamilton]

Paris smiled. "The Twenty Fifth. Wow that's awesome. That place is awesome." he said. He watched as Kerstin sat down next to him. She looked comfortable, which was good.

"How close do you live?" He asked Kerstin. He was really interested in where everyone lived, because he'd loved to stop by. As a friend of course. As he looked over at Bell, Paris couldn't help but noticed that she had suddenly fell quiet. Was she nervous? Bored? What? "Are you okay Bell? Your really quiet all of a sudden." he asked with a look of worry on his face.

[Isabel Pimm]

Bell looked up from her day dream and at first didn't realise who was talking to her. For when she snapped out of it the only people she saw was the boy and girl talking in the distance.
Remembering where she was and what was going on she turned and looked at Paris.
"Yea, I'm fine." she lied.

[Kerstin Vought]

“Uhm, five minutes? I walked here.” she replied, a questioned tone in her voice, telling the listeners she was most likely not exactly correct.
She shrugged, but offered a small nod of her head. She yawned, bringing a hand up to cover that of her mouth in politeness.
Refraining from the yawn, Kerstin looked over to see that the other male had left the group to join another girl in a walk.
She looked away, staring blankly at the ground, being informed on where the other girls had lived.

There were absent thoughts about her mind, her eyes stayed glued to the floor, but then looked up, not wanting to draw attention. Then Paris spoke again, questioning one of the other girls who had been sitting on his other side.
She listened to her response and then looked away. The tone in her voice seemed...fake?
She probably didn’t want all the other girls, including Kerstin, around. Who would blame her? Paris was indeed gorgeous.

[Mercedes Love]

Cede took to the side, watching the convertion. Whatever. The rest of the girls needed there pick up time. Cede needed planning time. Was it possible to get him alone? Nopee, Not with all there girls. Hmm.

Mercedes listen to them go back and forth, only nodding whem=n her said something about her home.

[Paris Hamilton]

Paris looked at Bell, she didn't really seem sure that she was okay, but he didn't want to start anything. He gave a small smile, hoping she really was okay.

"You walked 5 minutes? Wow that's a long walk. Seriously." he said to Kerstin. He looked over at Cede, she looked a little distant now. Why was everyone doing that?

Paris looked down at his rolex watch. "Holy shit, I have to go. I have a job to be at in 30 minutes and I still have to get ready." he said jumping up to his feet. "Here's my number, call me if you need me." he said handing all the girls a business card with his cell, business, and home numbers on it. He kissed every single girls cheek, a sign of friendliness, before dashing off to the curb.

Looking both way and waiting for a mere moment of the busy street to be clear, he dashed across the street and disappeared into his building.

[Isabel Pimm]

Bell took the number and the kiss on the cheek.
"Bye" she said with a wave.
She looked at the other girls, great...it was going to get awkward. she thought to herself.
"Well..." she said with a pause trying to think of what to say. "This is awkward" she stated.

[Kerstin Vought]

Taking the business card into her hands, Kerstin peeked down at it for a second then placed it into her pocket along with her hands.
She then glanced around at the other girls. Bell had spoken and Kerstin was, well, the sentence bothered her.
“Well, it didn’t have to be awkward, but that statement of yours kind of made it shift that way.” She commented, looking away from Bell. It was true; nothing was more awkward than one stating that it was. There was no point in comments like that, save your breath.

There was no point in being surrounded by the few girls that accompanied her, unless of course, she got to know them. But Kerstin was quite sure that the only reason they were over here was because of Paris. Duh.

[Ant & Ash Conan]

Antony shrugged "I had said something to Cede. And, I don't know, thats possible though. They just didn't hear or see me."He said nodding. "I'm normally not like that, but I'm hyper today. And I wanted to talk."He said nodding.

[Isabel Pimm]

Bell rolled her eyes at the girls comment, true she was right, but whatever. She shrugged and wouldn't let it ruin her first time in the snow. Gazing out at all the fallen snow she started to shiver.
"Well, nice meeting you all..." she said than got up from the bench, "But I'm freezing so I guess I'll see you around" she said with a nod and turned away from them and headed home.

[nikki]

"Oh. So you decided to give up with them and lower your level to speak with me?" Sawyer said, obviously joking. Well, obviously in her mind, of course. "Only joking," she added, just in case he hadn't gotten it. If he hadn't...well, that would be bad. He would feel weird, she would feel weird...and it would just be a big party of weirdness.

[Ant & Ash Conan]

"No, no"He said chuckling. "I'd lower my level by going back over there and talking with them now. Nope, this is raising my level."He smiled like it actually made sense then giggled. "That probably made no sense. I know it didn't for me."

[nikki]

"It made a little bit of sense. Not much, but a slight bit," Sawyer replied, looking down at the ground. She wished it would snow, even though that would only make it colder. But she was a native New Yorker. She was used to the cold. "So you still have a little bit of an accent. Where are you from?" she asked curiously, turning to face him for a couple of seconds, then looking away once more.

[Ant & Ash Conan]

He bit his lower lip. "I'm a southern boy. I come from South Carolina."He said pounding his chest kissing his fist and then doing the peace sign all in one fluent movement. "I try to cover it up, but it never works so I've been letting it slip lately."He said smiling.

[nikki]

"Oh, that's neat. I've never been there," Sawyer commented, narrowing her eyes as she thought about where she had been. She knew she had gone to North Carolina to look at a college there, but she didn't remember ever having gone to SC...for any reason. From what she'd heard, it wasn't exactly the most interesting state ever.

"And it's better if you never go. Most kids.. That grow up where I did. Kids don't make it out of that state, they grow up there, they get jobs there, they die there. You have to be willed to get out of those hick towns."He said softly. "I was willed to get out by the absolute reason. There is nothing there. There are farms, some cities, none big. Small stores. And lots, and lots, of forests and houses and suburbs."He said
