	Sam/Keegan

Sam had been having a good time with Ginger though he had noticed there was something a little off about her tonight. He was a little worried but they were in good enough spirits. He left her to her friends momentarily to wander around and say hello to everyone. It didn't take him long to run into his buds at all.

"Hey Keegan," he said cheerfully. "Having a good a night?" he asked as he approached his friend.

	Sam/Keegan

Keegan had left his girlfriend to meander around a little bit himself, letting her find and chat with her friends while he did the same. He'd bumped into a few and after a while, just grabbed himself a drink and stood off to the side.

His eyes caught Sam as he approached, and Keegan greeted him with a smile. "Hey buddy," he answered after a sip. "So far so good. You?"

	Sam/Keegan

"Been pretty great man," he beamed at his friend. "It's been a few crazy weeks," he said running a hand through his hair.

"Got any time to play soon?" he asked. "I've been studying way too much lately," he laughed.

	Sam/Keegan

"Yep," Keegan said in a way that wasn't nearly as excited as Sam, and he turned his eyes out to the floor in the direction Sam had come. Ginger was probably in that direction. "I've noticed."

He brightened at the question, though. How could he not? "I have plenty of time to play! But the weekend of May first is out. Any other time, all you got to do is let me know."

	Sam/Keegan

"Oh yeah," Sam said with a little laugh, though Keegan didn't seem to enthused. "Still pretty new," he said, pointing back to Ginger. "She's sweet."

"Definitely! We should jam sometime this week in between studying. Oh yeah, I heard there was a party in Hawaii or something for Cinco de Mayo. Kinda perfect," he grinned.

	Sam/Keegan

"She's sweet when she's not around certain friends of hers," Keegan answered without much of any forethought. Though, there were times when she hadn't been sweet and her friends weren't around to blame it on.

Keegan smiled. "Absolutely. It's not like I study much, anyway, so... And yes, Meka's having a party over break." His smile grew wider. "I'll be helping with it. It'll be a good way to end the break."

	Sam/Keegan

He nodded solemnly, he had sort of been off in his own world the past few weeks. "Yeah," he said vaguely. He wasn't sure what to say, he had never seen that side of her.

"Right?" he asked brightening right up. "We're going to be playing more than we study next week," he grinned. "Oh nice, if you're helping out it's definitely going to be bad ass."

	Sam/Keegan

Keegan was more than happy to move completely onto the better topic. "Damn right we will. I got some pretty cool melodies waiting to be used up here," he tapped his temple with a finger, "So we got to get on that before I forget them."

There was a slow nod on the topic of the party. "Of course it will. I assume you're going to be there?"

	Quinn/Brian

There were several things, by this point in the evening, that became abundantly clear: a few important people were not in attendance. Most of her usual amusement targets were nowhere to be seen, Alex was missing, and Emilie was missing. She thought she might have seen Stas earlier but had lost sight of him before she could corner him.

So naturally, Quinn decided to find out where her darling brother was. Yevgeni was nowhere in sight, but she did spot that other freshman boy she believed Alex knew. If she was right, it was Alex's roommate. Brian or something.

Before the boy could dodge out of her sight, she moved around a few of the other students and came up beside him. "Not interrupting anything, I hope?" Quinn said with a smirk. It was rather obvious this kid was the socially awkward type.

	Quinn/Brian

Brian jumped a little at the sound of Quinn's voice, turning to look at her like a deer caught in headlights. He wasn't sure, but he was fairly certain that she was Alex's sister. He was also fairly certain that she was absolutely terrifying.

"Uh...n-n-no, I-I-uh-I-I'm j-just w-w-watching." He ground out, blinking as he turned away from here and stared ahead. Where was Erica or Ben when he needed them?

	Quinn/Brian

If Brian had continued to look at her, which perhaps it was lucky for him that he didn't, he would have seen the predatory smile that spread across Quinn's face. She had to admit she liked the sound of fear.

"Watching," Quinn couldn't help but lean in just a little bit more towards him, her eyes glancing out towards the floor. "What could possibly be that interesting that you'd just end up standing here watching?" It was probably a girl. With these types, it usually was.

	Quinn/Brian

"Uh.." He leaned away from her as she leaned in, turning to stare at her a little more. What on earth was she doing?

"W-w-why d-d-d-do you want to know?" He swallowed a little, trying not to fidget too much. Maybe if he just answered her, she'd go away.

	Quinn/Brian

Slowly, Quinn shrugged. "No reason." She didn't really care that much to pry.

So, it was on to the main reason she was talking to the social reject in the first place. With a small tilt of her head, she asked, "Where's Alex?"

	From: littleredd	Date: April 15th, 2011 05:48 pm (UTC)		(Link)
	Quinn/Brian

He didn't think 'no reason' was entirely accurate, but he didn't voice that opinion. Instead he shifted the flowers in his hands, and watched Quinn carefully.

"H-he s-stayed b-uh-b-behind." He ground out with a great deal of frustration. Sometimes he had to wonder why he put himself through these things himself.

	From: whodoo	Date: April 18th, 2011 08:35 pm (UTC)		(Link)
	Quinn/Brian

Her eyes shifted down to the flowers and she smirked. The boy looked like a fool standing there clutching onto that bundle for dear life.

"And where did he go if he was staying b-b-behind?" Quinn mocked lightly as her eyes went back to Brian's face. "I need to find him." The tone in her voice made it quite clear she was not going away until she was told where Alex was. Naturally, she wasn't below using some fort of force if necessary.

	Quinn/Brian

Oh, now came the mocking. The way she imitated his inability to speak clearly.

"I-I-I said I wouldn't s-say." He protested, side stepping away from her with a wary look. Why was she so damn creepy?

	Apple/Frankie

Apple had been meandering, dancing, and sneaking out every once in a while for a smoke all night. He had to admit he was starting to like these things. He left Janis to her friends for the last bit of the dance to go out for one last smoke before he had to head home. With a little stumble he stepped outside and found a nice little spot in the shadows where he could light up undisturbed by the teacher chaperons. He figured he had been in trouble enough this semester, no need to add to the laundry list of things he was going to get in trouble for once he got home.

He leaned against the building with a little sigh, taking a hit and letting the smoke out slowly.

	Apple/Frankie

To go to a dance alone, and actually sneaking off to one may seem like odd behaviour for most people but that was what Frankie found herself doing. After the disaster of the last dance she hadn't wanted to come at all and played it down to Tatum. In fact she wasn't planning to stay long, which is why she wasn't even dressed up. She just wanted to do something to make sure Ginger had a shitty night, she just hadn't decided what yet.

She was skulking round the side of the hall in the moonlight when she heard someone coming. She relaxed when she saw Apple and stepped out of the shadows abruptly.

"I heard they give you cancer" she said, blowing smoke out of the sie of her mouth with a sweet smile.

	Apple/Frankie

"Holy shit," he said slowly, his reaction time being slowed down already from his previous outside breaks. A smile slowly slipped into place when he saw who it was though.

"Oh," he laughed. "Hey Frankie," he grinned. "These things? Well, at least we're having fun before we kick it right?"

	Apple/Frankie

"I'll drink to that" Frankie joked and drained the last of her punch (which she'd spiced up with a little vodka).

"Where's your date" she asked, cocking her head to the side.

	From: meandmyuke	Date: April 16th, 2011 07:00 pm (UTC)		(Link)
	Apple/Frankie

He grinned and snuck his hip flask out of his pocket. "Me too," he joined her in taking a little sip. "Gotta be well prepared for these things right?" he laughed.

"Jan is dancing with some of her friends," he said pointing back toward where the music was still pumping. "I can only take so much of the shit they call music," he grinned. "Speaking of dates... where is yours?"

	From: petitechou	Date: April 16th, 2011 07:06 pm (UTC)		(Link)
	Apple/Frankie

Frankie just grimaced in return but ended up laughing anyway. It was pretty hard not to when Apple was around, whether that was his personality or pothead giggles by proximity could still be debated.

"Me and Tater are laying low after the last disaster" Frankie joked. It all seemed so silly now that they were fine again. "I'm just checking out if Ginger is having a good time" she pouted, kicking up some dirt with her boot.

	Apple/Frankie

"Fair enough," he nodded with a little frown. "That was some pretty fucked up shit," he said quietly. "I don't get people you know? Fucking high school... bullshit," he stopped himself before he went into another incoherent ramble about society.

"Tate's great though, you know? I feel bad that people are always picking on her. I don't get it man."

	Apple/Frankie

"I can't wait to get out of this place" Frankie groaned in agreement. Of course, she had another year after this to contend with.

She agreed with Apple with a goofy grin on her face, sighing and resting her head on the wall. "I get frustrated that she just takes it. It'll be awesome when she finally snaps though. I mean, she was giving pretty good when we had our fight." She smiled, a little embarrassed and concentrated on her glowing cigarette for a moment.

"Speaking of her, shouldn't I be roughing you up or something? I heard you got an eyeful of my girlfriend at Quinn's party."
