Heart's Desire

[KareliaTheTama]

"'Kay," Shaula said as she continued to pull the bags throughout the hallway. When she reached suite 19, she set the bags in front of the door, and walked right off.

Blaze smiled back at Auburn as he took her book into his hands to observe, and in turn, he handed her his book. "I have to read that for the literature class I'm taking.." He said, as he flipped over the book Auburn had handed him, only to stare in confusion at the bare back of the book. "There's no summary.." He said, his surprise barely hidden.

 

[.:SnazzyPizazz:.]

Brooke simply humphed as Shaula walked away, not bothering to thank her for lugging her bag all the way to her room. Brooke deposited her cigarette filter into the hallway trash can before sliding her key card into the door's card scanner. A green light flashed and Brooke heard the door's lock click as she slid the key card out. She quickly grasped the handle to the door and opened it with a swift turn of her slender wrist. Brooke grabbed hold of her duffle bag's strap with both hands and dragged it into her room. With the door open, Brooke collapsed back onto her bed with a smile. This place was freaking awesome.

Auburn nodded excitedly. "I know!" she said and scrunched up her nose like she always did when she got excited about something. "That's why I picked it up. The mystery itself makes it impossible for me to just pass it by." She smiled, a little embarrassed for her excitement over a silly book. "You must think I'm weird," she muttered, her cheeks flushing slightly.

 

[Runner]

"You're not that weird," Blaze said, laughing. "Actually, no. Everybody's weird in their own way... At least, that's how I like to think about it." Blaze said, as he sat down onto a nearby armchair. "And I can understand what you mean about that book. It's very mysterious.. And special in a peculiar sense."

 

[.:SnazzyPizazz:.]

Auburn nodded, relieved that Blaze didn't think ill of her for getting so excited over something so trivial. She walked alongside Blaze, every so often glancing in his direction. She couldn't help but to stare a little. She thought he was really attractive.

//fail lol

Blaze walked out of the library with his book tucked under his arm. He stretched out, reaching his arms for the sky. "I wonder if there's any other rooms in the mansion.."

 

[.:SnazzyPizazz:.]

Thinking that Blaze was motioning for a hug, Auburn gently wrapped her arms around him. She looked up at him with a smile, but suddenly realized that he was only stretching. Auburn quickly pulled away, her face now five shades of red. "I'm so sorry," she squeaked and laughed nervously.

 

[Runner]

Blaze looked surprised at first when Auburn had hugged him, but he seemed unfazed by it. "No, that's okay, I did kind of look like I was asking for a hug.." Although his tone sounded casual, his face was about as red as Auburn's. He looked down to avoid showing the crimson on his cheeks.

 

[KareliaTheTama]

Shaula ran around the mansion, bored. She stumbled into the library, just in time to catch the hug. She could not help "Aww"ing with the sweetest expression on her face, like she was watching a baby bunny or something. She stayed like that for about five seconds until she FINALLY noticed the library. "Oh cool! A library!" She immediately ran in, and stood on top of the library cart. She was about to ride it around, but a certain book caught her eye. She picked it up, began reading, and seemed completely engrossed, sitting cross-legged on the top of the library cart.

 

[.:SnazzyPizazz:.]

Auburn thought it was cute how red he was. Her cheeks still red with embarrassment, Auburn laughed at the situation. She found it quite funny that she had thought he wanted to hug her all of a sudden. Why would he? Auburn held out her arms playfully to Blaze. "Hug?" she asked sweetly, a twinkle of mischief in her bright blue eyes.

 

[KareliaTheTama]

Shay looked up from her book with a knowing look in her eye. She could not help but smile, yet intense jealousy burned inside her. She sucked it in, though.

 

[Runner]

Laughing, Blaze accepted the hug. He couldn't help but notice how good Auburn smelled, as he wrapped his arms around her. He smiled, and was very happy that he had chosen to come here in the first place, and hadn't tossed the letter down the drain like he thought he was going to do.

 

[.:SnazzyPizazz:.]

ooc: Awww :3

Auburn loved the way Blaze's strong arms felt around her and felt as if she could stay there forever. She breathed deeply, enjoying their embrace. Auburn couldn't remember the last time she hugged a guy. Besides her brother, Auburn hadn't really wanted to have any kind of physical contact with guys, seeing as that was the only thing most guys were ever interested in from her. Lost in the moment, Auburn momentarily forgot herself and rested her head on his chest.

Taylor held back a chuckle and said, "Alright, then." She stood up and started to walk towards the door. "But if you change your mind, and want a challenge, I'm in room 29." Sydney said, leaving. She secretly hoped he would come down to her room. This was the flirtiest she'd been since Ben. And it was a little frightening she was acting this way. She plopped down on her bed once she reached room 29, pulling out her latest book, Pride and Prejudice. She opened the book and started reading, not as focused as she could have been.

Kaylin walked out of the library and saw Josh. "Well, hello there..." she purred quietly. She strutted her little self over to him, giving a stunning smile and a sweet, "Hello."

 

[Jadeie]

"Hi," Josh said, he gave the girl a grin, before walking past her and tried to find his door. He had found the door and began to unlock it with his key.

Angel began to strut her way to the library, she had no clue where it was though. Angel found the door and her mouth fell open when she saw Blaze and Auburn.

 

[Runner]

Blaze was blushing as he felt Auburn's head on his chest. He could feel her soft hair against his chest and it felt.. He didn't know how to describe it. He had never hugged a girl like this before, so this was a total new thing to him. The moment was one of gold to him. Unfortunately, he saw Angel and Shay staring at the two of them, so Blaze pulled away, embarrassed. "I think that we should do things like that elsewhere, because this feels awkward."

 

[Jadeie]

Angel thought it was cute, but she was jealous. She had never hugged a guy before, only her father, if that counted. Angel gave a friendly smile at the two of them, before looking down at the ground, kicking her feet. Angel wondered was it felt to meet the lips of others, to feel their arms around you. To feel your heart skip a beat due to the love.

Meanwhile, Cade was walking around the halls of the mansion, in his well worn gray sweatshirt. He sighed, and then sat down alone by the library, with a notebook. He began to draw a picture of a sparrow he saw from one of the windows. He never really had time to draw in high school, but in all truth, he loved it in middle school. Slowly, the shape began to appear, and soon, he had a pretty good gray, black and white picture of a sparrow on a windowsill.

 

[KareliaTheTama]

Shaula just sat there, then broke down and cried right on top of the library cart. She had always been unlucky in love, and watching this display of true affection made her feel all the worse. Her book fell to the floor as she buried her face in her hands. Her crying did not sound overdone, or whiny. It was more of a woeful sobbing. She then sat up, sucked it up as best as she could, and murmured shyly, "I.. I need to go back to my room." She got out of the cart and fled, embarrassed.

 

[Jadeie]

Angel began to think of the boy who had broke her heart, used her to impress another girl, and not to mention for canteen money. Angel stepped away from the library, she couldn't stand looking at the sight of love anymore, she stumbled upon Cade. Angel saw his drawing and gazed at it, it was so pretty. Angel had a liking for birds, "your good... At drawing."
