We'll Float On Alright... (Open)

[Kyerin]

As the temperature had warmed up, classes began to reflect the heat; more and more classes could be taught outside underneath the green trees and admidst the blooming flowers. Problems began to incorporate the impending summer and the flourishing spring seasons in an attempt to keep the students' attention from fading. Physical education was probably making the most of this, having more activities outside and also including swimming into the schedule, much to the delight of the teenage boys.

At the moment, no gym class was in schedule, but one student had decided to take the chance to relax in the pool. With a sigh, she floated on her back, keeping her eyes closed, just listening to... well, the artificial silence; the rippling water, the faint air, her breathing, the other students in different parts of the gym far away, those noises still reached her. Besides those, it was quiet and tranquil, enough to where, if she wasn't afraid of drowning, she would be lulled off to sleep. It sure was nice...

[Faye]

Although it was during school hours, another student was out wondering the school or being in other places rather than the correct room for their class. However, Isaak Adler, was allowed out of the classroom to look for inspiration. His current class was art, they were doing paintings that presented peace for a competition that had been announced earlier that week. Isaak requested permission to take a look around the school to find something he could paint.

With the permission granted, he set out for the pool. He knew the water would give him something, some sort of idea would come, and it was outside so there was the scenery around that as well.

He walked casually across the court in the gymnasium, his uniform sitting nicely on his form, his white shirt sleeves rolled up to his elbows. A black bag was slung over his shoulder, his hand lifted to hold the bag strap to keep it in place. He exited through one of the doors of the gymanasium, revealing the concrete steps down thaty led down to the school pool. He took a deep breath, taking in the scent of the air but scrunched up his nose when he smelled the chlorine. A down side, but it was minor.

At the bottom of the steps, he made his way over to the stands beside the pool and sat his backpack down on the bottom seat. Turning around, he noticed a girl in the middle of the pool, just floating there, her blonde hair spread out as it floated on the surface of the still water.

He blinked. Maybe if he was quiet, she wouldn't notice him.

[Kyerin]

Yes, classes were occuring at the moment, but she was skipping... in a sense. Her sister was at their classes, so then she could later copy the notes, and it was almost like she was there. Of course, that meant that the next day, she would have to go to their classes and take notes for her... eh, it was worth it, only having more classes every other day... well, besides tests, but those didn't really count.

The girl flipped off of her back, treading water instead, before sinking into the water, closing her eyes so that the chlorine wouldn't burn them. She shook her head lightly before pushing off of the bottom of the pool, breaking the surface and flicking her hair back like some sort of model, letting the water flick off of her locks. She giggled, shaking her head lightly to toss off more moisture from her, not noticing if anyone else had shown up; she was too busy being in her own little world.

[Faye]

Now that he was around water, Isaak placed his cell phone inside his backpack to prevent any sort of suicide attempts from his phone, he couldn't afford to get another one with the allowance his parents were sending him every week.

He contemplated taking his wrist blades off but he decided against it, he felt naked without them on.

When the girl turned off her back, making slight splashing sounds as she moved, Isaak nearly jumped out of his skin, he didn't want to disturb her and she looked so... cute. Yes, definitely cute and off in her own little world. It would be a shame to break her from it. So he tip toed round the side of the pool to the metal fence to look over at the vegetation across the side of the school, able to see the whole side of the island. His footsteps made quiet sploosh sounds as there was countless puddles of water around the pool from the previous gym class.

[Kyerin]

The girl smiled for a moment more, before sighing lightly, shaking her head and sinking until her nose rested on the surface of the water. The one unfortunate thing is that her sister couldn't cover her drama classes for her... well, unless they were swapping for the day. But since they weren't, she'd have to go to it at some point... unless she skipped the whole day. Course, if she wasn't in their room when the other girl got back, she would probably be scolded. She still had time, but if she wanted to take a shower beforehand, she should probably head out now...

The eighth year turned towards the edge, ready to get out and dry off, when she noticed that there was a different color on the pale tiles that surrounded the pool. Her gaze swiveled upwards to see that there was a boy about her age- she thought he looked kinda familiar- looking at her. She glared, treading water still instead of moving to the lip- she would have crossed her arms if she could. "Can I help you?" she said, obviously annoyed.

[Faye]

While observing the landscape of the area, his eyes had wandered back over to the girl in the water, curiosity, mainly. He couldn't get over how quiet he was being just to not disturb her.

But he had now. Her irritated voice troubled him, sweat embedded itself at the end of his brow and he swallowed the lump in his throat. "I-I.. I'm sorry! I didn't mean to stare.. I didn't want to disturb you.." He seemed genuinely apologetic, the main reason for his presence at the pool was more art inspiration not to stare at the girl in her swimsuit.

[Kyerin]

Rhia ignored the male for a moment, instead swimming over to a different edge of the pool away from him to pull herself out. The nerve of him, staring at her without her knowing it... it was a tad bit flattering, but mostly creepy. She wasn't quite sure what to make of him, especially since she wasn't sure who he was. If she only had her information from the student council... she would know more and could make a better decision.

The girl walked over to the small bleachers off to the side, picking up the towel she had deposited there earlier, and wrapped it around her form, obscuring it from the boy's view. This accomplished, she turned back to him, now crossing her arms. "That's nice of you, but finding out by surprise that I have a stalker is more disturbing," she replied, acting a bit angrier than she was; she would probably get over it in a minute or two.

[Faye]

Isaak's chocolate brown eyes watched her swim across to the opposite side of the pool to cover up her form with the towel that was sitting near the backpack he had sat down earlier. Realising this, his eyes jerked away, looking at the ground.

"I seriously did mean it, and I'm very sorry that it came off like that.." He was sorry. "I wasn't planning on even telling you I was here because I'm here for something I'm doing in art and I was going to go through that gate onto the field," He pointed to the gate that blended it in with the fence, the only difference was the lock that would be lifted up to inable access through it.

[Kyerin]

Rhia sighed lightly at his remarks; to be fair, it was a bit of her fault for not hearing him walk in. He could have been there for just a second... or he could have been there the whole time. That thought caused her cheeks to tinge red before she puffed them out, annoyed. Just plain rude!

"Still, you should have told me that you were here so that we wouldn't have this conversation," the girl said, walking around the pool so that she was closer to the boy, though she still kept a few yards of distance on him. "Besides, you weren't out through there; you were in here, looking at me. Thinking of changing what you were doing for art, hm?" It was definately less mad now, and more playful, though her expression and tone still suggested some anger.

[Faye]

Isaak hesitated as she walked around the pool, even if she was keeping her distance, he still felt very intimidated. "Yes, I should have, and I'm sorry that I didn't.." He replied, he didn't want to anger this girl any more than he had.

Dammit, why did his guy instincts have to kick in at a time like this? He should have just gone out through the gate and onto the field, completely ignoring the girl. But no, he chose to stare a little more. Her last comment brought a blush to the surface of his cheeks, "N-no! I actually have no idea what I'm doing for it right now.. you're just.. very cute and I got carried away," He babbled on. He shook his head, "Can I at least make it up to you?"

[Kyerin]

Rhia still watched him carefully, seeing him squirming lightly from her remarks and implications. She did admit, she was a bit insulted when he said that he wasn't going to use her for his art project instead, but when she was called cute, that helped soothe her over. He was very amusing to be around... her sister would understand if she was late because of this.

Her lips curled slightly into a smile as the girl leaned forward a bit towards him. "Well, I suppose you could... but what exactly?" She straightened up, lightly tapping her chin with one hand before shifting her gaze back to him. "First off... who are you exactly?"

[Faye]

With his compliment, he saw her visibly relax, he mentally sighed in relief that he had at least done something to make it a little better than what it had been.

When she leaned forward, he stumbled back a step from surprise, she was beginning to creep him out a little but now that he was conversing with the girl, he felt compelled to make it up to her. And possibly more. Maybe. Probably not.

"Well I coul-- Oh, I'm Isaak Adler," He replied, introducing himself, his German accent riding along the words, especially when he said his name. "And do you have a cute name to match?" Possibly not the best choice of words he could have said.

[Kyerin]

Rhia could tell that the boy was getting more used to her now; he didn't seem as jittery and afraid as when they had started conversing. Well, she had been angry then, and probably intimidating, and now that she got a better look at him, he might be older than her... and if those silver bracelets said anything, he had some money. Maybe it was time for her to be a bit more... charming.

The girl smiled widely, her whole posture and attitude changing, dropping all of the fury and threatening for a much more open, accepting, and adorable atmosphere. "Rhiannon Levenworth, but Rhia works just as well," she said, her Welsh accent sprinkled over her words, much more noticable now (theatre had helped her keep her accent in check, but she rather enjoyed hearing it). "Now, you sounded like you had an idea?"

[Faye]

Isaak blinked.

She just completely changed from scary to what appeared to be a normal mood. But it was weird, it happened so fast. Was she bipolar or have multi-personality disorder?

They were possiblities.

His shoes stepped in a few puddles, the water rippling from the impact. Her name was cute and suited her very well, from her accent, he assumed she was from Europe, probably Wales. "Aah, it is cute," He replied, his heart still thumping in his chest but he was trying to act as calm as possible.

"Oh. I was wondering if you'd like to go for some ice-cream, my treat of course." He offered her a charming smile. Inside, he was hoping she would say yes and remain in this mood, it was a lot easier to cope with than the scary side.

[Kyerin]

Rhia thought she saw a brief bit of confusion cross his expression, but he seemed to get over it easily. Either he didn't seem to mind that she had changed her attitude so easily (which was fine with her, considering that she could be scary again if he really wanted her to), or he thought it was normal for girls. It was, to an extent; she tended to flip more easily, mainly due to her ability from drama to hide other emotions. It was like being crazy, but without people treating you like some sort of plague.

Isaak was somewhat charming, which made the girl feel a bit better; he was going out of his way for her, which was nice. And at the mention of ice cream, she could feel herself almost begin to drool. Mmmmm... nice cold sweets... "I'd love to..." she said nodding, before looking down at her form, "but I'm not really dressed properly. How about I shower and change, and we can go from there?"
