[/color][/center] - - - FINGERS GRAZED OVER [/b] the railing, rolling her eyes as she moved up the steps with a certain poised and confident look to her. heels clicked on the pavement as she pushed past people, taking in the costumes with a customary roll of her eyes. she gripped the fabric of her dress, smoothing out a few of the wrinkles as she walked. she had not gone with the actual attire that was expected, fashioning a dress out of linen seemed too boring and far too much work for her. instead, she had gone out and bought something similar to a toga dress. hers was a short cut, rose colored toga style dress and resembled nothing too the Halloween costumed toga dresses that most of the party goers were wearing. sighing, she pushed her way through the crowd as boredom had already began to take over her system. she could feel herself growing tired of the people bumping into her and the people’s chatter that filled the room. she could hear the gossip, the laughing, flirting, serena caught every tone in just about every conversation as she passed by people. her destination was the drink table, figuring that she would need either a cigarette (despite her non-smoking habits) or alcohol to get her through this party. she chose the alcohol, for now. kneeling down to the cooler, she plucked a bottle from the melting ice box, wrinkling her nose at the sight of the brand. beer. a taste that serena had never learned to acquire despite what she was told when she was younger. her taste buds wanted something with a little more flavor to it, a more bitter taste but it seemed that her craving for a tequila shot or ten would go unfulfilled for the evening. she reached into the cooler, her hand frozen from the wrist down as she sifted through the drinks and pulled a vodka cooler out. shrugging, she rose to her feet and looked around for a moment to make sure no one was going to scold her as she used the side of the drink table to pop the cap clean off the bottle and took a long, needed sip. sighing, serena moved away from the drink table regardless of her knowledge of how fast this drink would be gone and how fast she would need another. her heels clicked on the pavement as she contorted her body, pulling her arms in, her shoulders in, twisting her leg and whatever else she had to do to prevent people from touching her as she passed. ”what a drag..” she muttered under her breath, pushing through the crowd to the back door and slipped out into the fresh air. there were people gathered around, but none that had her interest or anyone she thought was worth her time. moving to the side of the building, she could feel the bass of the music ricocheting through the structure as she walked around to the side, her hand still wrapped around the now half-empty drink in her hand. she had finally made the mental note to yell at the person that had convinced her to come with a flyer and his excessive talking that resulting in the acceptance of the invitation. she was not sure of his name as he had caught her after her russian literature class but she was now determined to hunt the student down now. closing her eyes, she finally started to relax until she had the strange feeling that she was not standing against the building alone. her eyes opened, blinking to readjust to the lighting and turned her head to look at the person, her eyes rolling, ”cannot pick another spot?…” she whispered under her breath. lifting the bottle to her lips, she tilted the bottle up to finish off the cooler as she wondered if a conversation was going to be attempted. of course, with the people gathered around outside, she wondered why she was surprised that someone would be standing close to her, crossing her arms across her chest with the bottle dangling from her fingers, she scoffed. lifting a leg, she pressed her heel to the side of the structure’s wall and looked up to the sky, trying to drown out anything that the person was saying.

Woah, Mona Lisa, I'd pay to see you frown He senses something, call it desperation Another dollar, another day And if she had the proper words to say, ( She would tell him But she'd have nothing left to sell him --------------- ! )
parties gave off a sense of rebellion. the drinking and naughty behavior that occurred at a party was definitely not kid friendly. a college party, anyway. danny never passed down a party, no matter how crazy it was going to be. he liked to joke that his motto was go big or go home, but in all seriousness he wasn't joking. when he heard about a huge toga party that was being thrown there was no way he could pass up the opportunity. right away he went out to walmart and bought himself a sheet. to spiff it up a bit he went crazy with a few of his friends and spray painted it black and green, going for a camo look. might as well make an interesting toga, just to be a little different. not that he needed that to be different.
the party was packed. the whole school must have been there, anyone from freshman to seniors such as himself. he recognized a few faces here and there, otherwise a lot of the people looked like those who didn't even attend the college. immediately he retreated to the alcohol. there was definitely plenty of it, to his satisfaction. he plucked out a beer from the stash and opened it, taking a few generous sips. this would be a great night, even if he did look a bit ridiculous in a drappy sheet. as he scanned the party his eyes stopped short on beautiful and familiar face. he knew her anywhere. he watched as she made her way to the side door and slipped outside. he wasn't sure anyone else would be out there, and he set his beer down on the table. this would be a perfect opportunity to finally meet serena in person. a sly smile and determined look set itself on danny's face as he headed for the other door that led outside.
as he walked along the wall outside, right away he spotted serena leaning against the wall. he stopped short, waiting to see if she would notice he was there. he faintly caught her saying something under her breath and looking in his direction and he decided to take that as his opportunity. danny neared her, the sly smile still upon his lip. "what was that? i didn't quite catch what you said, sabrina." he couldn't help but flash a toothy smile, thinking his little nickname for serena was funny. sure it was childish, but when was danny an adult? he couldn't help looking her up and down. she was very slim, but incredibly attractive. she had a very sexy look to her, and her choice of toga made him feel all under dressed and silly. he wished he hadn't set his beer down on the table back inside. "you look great, by the way." he tried his best to casually add it, knowing he was being a bit forward. of course, that's what you do when you have a crush. isn't it?

-------- the question that many had asked serena was “what went wrong”. in all honesty, serena knew exactly where things turned around for her. her family and old time friends would throw the rhetorical question out whenever news of serena’s misfortune reached their ears. it was an easy answer if you followed the time line back to just a few years ago in seattle, but no one had taken the time to do that. to those people, serena was just fucked up because she was a screw up, because of mother was not around, or because she just grew up. she grew up a little too fast, faster than most kids her age as her mother spiraled into depression and left her daughter to fend the hurt and pain of her father’s sudden death all on her own. that was where it all went wrong but it was just easier to make up the excuses in their own heads than to actually ask her, she would be frank about her switch from the happy go-lucky teenager to the sudden quick-witted, sarcastic and cynical adult. however, no one took the time and the question remained a mystery with answers conjured up to the lazy people she called family or friends. sighing, serena opened her eyes to take a quick look around her. it seemed she had entered the mingling section of the party. couples or those that had the potential to be each others' mistake of the night, were sitting close to each other, talking quietly, giggling to words that the other said and serena just rolled her eyes, muttering a soft ”pathetic” under her breath, scoffing and turning her head, eyes narrowing to the figure that was stepping closer to her. well her night had gotten worse, not only was she in the mingling section but now she might be forced to mingle with what serena considered to be nothing but an immature boy.
--------rolling her eyes to his words, she turned her head to face him, a stoic expression across her face except for a single raised eyebrow, but with no signs of interest on her face. ”don’t have to use the nickname. i knew it was you even before you started talking, dan”, serena had decided to throw his nickname into the mix since he used hers. the name made her cringe, her nose wrinkling just a little as she turned her head away from him and dropped her foot to the ground. she saw a blue bin nearby, arching her eyebrow further and glancing to the bottle as she calculated the chances of her making the shot was. it was probably slim, very slim but she made the attempt, using the underhand throw and tossed the bottle. she watched the glass container fly through the air and miss completely, landing on the pavement with a thud. wincing to the sound of the glass breaking, she shrugged off what most people would think to be an embarrassing situation and just spoke a single word, ”oopsie.”. turning her head back to daniel, her face emotionless once more as she looked down to her feet as she heard his compliment, shrugging it off as well. serena was used to hearing these kind of comments with the cheesy pick-up lines to add and she rolled her head to glance at him from the corner of her eye, nodding in agreement to his statement, ”i know.”, but this time her word had a smirk at the end of it. a sudden wink was sent in his direction as she watched for his reaction.
--------taking another look around, serena felt bored already. she felt bored with the conversation, with the party, with the drinks and now with daniel. turning her body, she leaned the side of her body against the building and looked to him. even serena was not going to deny that daniel was cute, the picture that was sent online was not a terrible one but his immaturity had lost him major points with her. for one was the nickname that she loathed but he insisted on addressing her whenever she had just started to change her mind about him. however, daniel kept things interesting to say the least, but serena was not one to just fall for any guy. she had set rules and boundaries for herself to keep away the disappointment that came with commitment but serena was starting to enjoy the thoughts in her head. she had an odd love for playing with her food and daniel was a pretty tasty treat for her, reaching to him, she brushed her fingertips up his bicep, eyebrow arched once more with faux intrigue for him, ”you don’t look half bad yourself. k-mart sheets?” she asked with a small tug to the fabric that was resting on top of his shoulders as she took a step closer, breaking the distance between them.
