Heart's Desire

[.:SnazzyPizazz:.]

Auburn served herself some the pasta and ventured over to the fridge in search of some cheese. She pulled open the large door and did a quick scan of the fridge's contents. She spotted an unopened bag of mozzarella in the drawer and grabbed it. Closing the fridge door with her foot, she ripped open the bag, grabbed a small amount of cheese, and gingerly sprinkled it on top of her food. After grabbing a fork Auburn plopped down beside Blaze and began to eat, extremely happy that she had a hand in making the meal.

Brooke pursed her lips and smiled at Brayden's compliment. She reached over and touched his chin in a flirtatious manner. "You're sweet," she purred with a grin. "But it's very easy to hate someone like me," she stated flatly and shrugged. "You haven't seen it yet, but I'm not going to lie to you. I can be a real bxtch sometimes." Brooke reclined back and rested her arms on the sides of the hot tub. She turned her head and looked at Brayden with a large grin. "But you don't have to worry about that. I like you."

Brayden gave a little grin as she started to flirt again. "Well I guess that's good, because I like you." he said. Still grinning, Brayden got up, the hot tub beginning to make him feeling really hot. He did a back-dive into the pool, and cooled off. Climbing out of the pool, he sat down in the hot tub next to Brooke.

 

[.:SnazzyPizazz:.]

Brooke laughed. "Someone's a show off," she said playfully and grinned at the handsome boy as he got back into the hot tub with her. "And it's good that you like me. You're probably one of only people that will like me here. The ones who don't can go to Hell." Brooke grinned as she said this, a single dimple creasing in her left cheek. "My name is Brooke by the way."

 

[YellowJedi]

"I think you mentioned that already." Brayden laughed, smiling at Brooke. "I'm Brayden, incase you forgot." He told her, starting to think.

Blaze couldn't really taste the food he was currently digesting at a turtle's pace. The food was good, yes, and filled up his vacant stomach. Yet, his appetite seemed to be receding so rapidly, he eventually just pushed his plate away from him, with at least a 1/3 of the pasta still on it. He got up. "I'm full..." He put plastic wrap on the plate in case he felt like eating later. Then he faced Auburn. "Listen.. I need a little alone time. I'll be back in a bit, promise." He then turned back around and couldn't help but feel a bit like a huge-a!* jerk. Auburn had done nothing but been kind to him, and yet, he still acted like some emo, geeky idiot. He walked down to the bedroom, and he avoided looking at Cade's blank bed. Picking up his guitar, he opened the glass door and walked out onto the balcony, where he sat down on a chair.

 

[.:SnazzyPizazz:.]

OOC: Opps! I totally forgot we introduced ourselves lol. My bad. Just forget she said that.

Auburn nodded her head in complete understanding as Blaze excused himself. She knew he was hurting and was actually glad to see that he was attempting to vent. It wasn't healthy to keep everything bottled up inside like that.

Feeling that she could help from a distance, Auburn quickly retreated to her room for her guitar. She strapped it to herself as she stepped back in Blaze's suite and picked a comffy spot on the floor close to the balcony so that Blaze could hear her. She strummed a few chords before opening up into the intro of a song. As the opening neared, Auburn cleared her throat and, with a smile, began to sing.

Blaze took a deep breath of the fresh, evening air. A blast of cold wind blew at his face. It was sharp and burned his lungs and ears. He didn't mind, though; it was nice to have a feel of the outdoors after being inside for so long. He started by strumming his hand down the guitar, and then proceeding to do a few more warmup drills. Then, he got to playing songs; playing which ever one came to his head first. After playing 3 songs, he stopped strumming and then let his guitar down a bit so he could think.

Toby settled into his room and took a quick shower. He changed into some sweatpants and another green t-shirt. Toby slipped on some flip- flops and headed out into the hallway. He decided the best way to get people's attention was to shout, " HELLO? ANYONE HOME?" at the top of his lungs.

 

[YellowJedi]

ooc: Okay.

Brayden finally ended the silence by asking a question. "Do you wannacome to my room to have dinner? I haven't eaten yet, and to be honest, I'm starved." he said, giving a slight smile.

Shaula was depressed about Cade leaving, but she had an idea that would help her get better. She dug in her suitcase, and pulled out an orange plastic Nerf-gun pistol and a bag of darts. She sat on her bed and faced the wall, where there was a convenietly placed slick spot, and locked and loaded towards it. She shot a few of the darts, and most of them hit the target, but a few fell off.

 

[Ryuk`]

nobody answered toby's call. he decided to explore downstairs, " there must be someone around!" he said to himself.

 

[Runner]

Cade woke up after a nice five hour long sleep. He slowly got up, rubbed his sticky face, and then blinked his eyes. He eyed his surroundings, trying to will himself to remember where he was. When his memories did recall to him, he slowly rose from the bed, and he changed into a black t-shirt and shorts. He then walked back up the stairs, and back into the downstairs suite's closet. He climbed out of the closet and walked into the hallway.

 

[KareliaTheTama]

By then, Shaula had already eaten dinner, and went out to explore. She stumbled upon the Rec room, and decided to play ping-pong with herself. She took a white ping-pong ball, and a single racket. She served it, not too hard, but then ran to the other side of the table and hit it again. She repeated this until she was worn out, and collapsed on the little white chair sitting in the corner. She fell asleep instantly.

 

[Runner]

Cade tried to think of what he could say to Blaze, Angel, Shaula and all those other people here. Suddenly feeling as if all his confidence had faded in one snap, he walked back into the room, and then found himself walking over to the sliding glass door. He opened it, and then found himself outside. Shutting the door, he sat down in a lawn folding chair, and then he heard talking. Wondering where it was coming from, he glanced up and down.

Blaze now felt he had the power to tell Auburn the truth about Cade and him. He opened the sliding glass door and then yelled out into the room, "Hey, can you come outside? There's something I need to confess."

 

[Jadeie]

Angel put her back to the nearest wall and let her body slide down until her behind hit the ground. She didn't weep, but she silently store at her hands.

Will he be back? Angel wondered, he has to be!

Maybe, this will all end, I'll wake up, in my suit, ready for a new day? Angel shook off the thought, if she woke up, she wouldn't of met Cade.

 

[Runner]

Cade yawned, the nap he had just had five minutes ago not really making him any less tired. Even though he was downstairs and outside, he was still sort of stuck in the mansion- the area around him was simply just the huge fenced yard, and the tiny patio with the chair he currently sat on. He wondered what everybody was up to, and easily managed to guess some things. Well, Blaze is up there with his guitar, and from what it seems, Auburn must be inside his suite. Shaula is probably doing something weird, that one Brooke girl is likely flirting with some dude or sleeping and then Angel... He stopped to contemplate that one.

 

[.:SnazzyPizazz:.]

Auburn instantly put down her guitar and rose to meet her friend, happy that Blaze was willing to discuss such a touchy subject with her. She walked over to him quickly and gave him a warm smile as her eyes met his. "I'm all ears," Auburn said and took a seat on the bench resting outside on the balcony.

Brooke pretended to pout. "But I just got here," she said, trying hard not to reveal the grin that she was trying so hard to conceal. "Can't we soak for a little longer?" Brooke purred and slowly moved closer to Brayden, her eyes locked on his.

 

[YellowJedi]

Brayden smiled at her. "Of course we can." He said. He moved a little closer as well, now there arms were touching. He was really hungry, but a few more minutes in the hot tub wouldn't be that bad.

 

[Jadeie]

Angel shook her head to herself, why was she like this?

Usually she would be happy towards people leaving and give a friendly good-bye and a wave. Angel knew she wasn't turning Gothic or emotionally unstable either. Angel's mind was throwing thoughts wherever it wanted too. But it annoyed Angel, she already had enough mysteries.

 

[Runner]

Blaze hesitated, as he realized he had no idea how to put Cade's and his argument into words. He knew there was going to be only one way to do it: by song. He easily thought of the right song to sing, and then, he voiced his thoughts to Auburn: "Listen, since I can't really describe in words too easily about what happened between me and Cade, I guess.. I'll sing this song that I know will fit." Then he took a deep breath, and then, soon, he was engrossed in the song, which happened to be

Cade looked up, surprised by the song choice. For both of the two brothers, that song was always their favorite, over all the other rap and pop songs back in the day. He could recall, very sharply the memory of sitting in a bedroom in a bunk bed's bottom bunk holding a laptop. Blaze and him used to share rooms when he had first showed up in Seattle, and those were the days they were best friends. The days they would sit around, laugh at the same jokes, listen to the same music and play the same sports. He stood up, and listened, mind processing slowly as he realized how dauntingly the song managed to portray the argument that had separated them. Of course, when they had first got to the mansion, he and Blaze had tried their best to get along again, but over time, it was clear that Blaze and him couldn't forget that argument that incinerated a once deep bond that had dissolved over time. Now, hearing Blaze sing the song that connected them the most made him cringe, his mouth drying rapidly and his eyes unblinking.
