He watched his younger siblings go. They were so... annoying. He smirked, shoving his hands into his pockets and walked off towards the school building. Louis Nicholas had to check in with the office every morning for the next three weeks to make sure that he was actually attending classes regularly. Sitting down for hours on end just wasn't his bag anymore; once upon a time, it had been. Louis had been a great kid in some good academic standing (not that he still wasn't) but his teachers were growing weary of the way he would saunter back into class after a week or so of being absent and acing his tests.

So now he was branded a cheat he supposed. Louis lazily sauntered into the office with a smile that would melt the undergarments of any person of any age. He leaned against the counter, beaming down at the girl behind it. "Let Burr know I was here, darling?" He purred, looking her straight in the eyes when she acknowledged his presence. He watched as she recognized him, shifted a bit under his gaze and nodded mutely. How cute.

The young man couldn't help but laugh as he reached into his pockets for a smoke. Traveling through the shallow sea of students he wound up sitting behind on of the school buildings looking for his zippo.

Cursing lightly to himself when he came up empty handed he looked around for any possible candidates that would have one with them. With a groan he leaned against the building, checking out the backsides of a group of emo kids that passed him by on their way onto campus. His fingers started twitching, he wanted to get in a fight.

Tilting his head to the side, he spied a fine blonde specimen coming towards the school and whistled. "Hey. He greeted smoothly when she was within earshot.

[Her Acoustic Heart]

It was not plainly obvious, but Charlie Stone really wasn't in the mood for another concert, he wasn't in the mood for the screaming girls with their signs, and support and admiration, but most importantly and to his shock; Charlie wasn't in the mood for music. It had been an ever growing feeling since his band had signed on for a record deal. Once upon a time, their music was fresh, real... alive. Their music meant something! Now it was just words; words that didn't seem like their own, words that didn't hold any real meaning to him or any of his band mates. The Sexperts were chin deep in fame, fan letters and gifts constantly, but the only one who wasn't enjoying it (for the most part) was Charlie, sure Evan, Scott and Zach took notice of their less than stellar sellout, but were, for the most part, okay with it.

Charlie sighed, letting his head flop back onto the couch, trying to drown out the constant stream of screaming and noise from the stage that lay just a few feet to his left. The stage manager Ginnie came scurrying up to the four boys with a bright smile, waving frantically with her free hand and touched her head set. Charlie watched her, puckering his lips before pulling them back. It was about time for them to go on, so with one deep breath he pushed himself off the couch.

He pinched his shoulders back, hearing them crack and ran his fingers through his hair, ruffling it as he did so. His friends preceded him to the stage, sending their fans into an even bigger tizzy than they had been in. Charlie paused before he stepped foot from behind the concealment the curtain provided. One more breath, he put on a smile and stepped out. The process only took a second. Charlie hide the wince his body almost did automatically when the screaming got even louder (if that was even possible) and he lifted a hand in greeting, a small smile on his face.

His band mates all got their equipment at the ready while he slung his guitar over his shoulders, stepping up to the mic, grasping it in his hands. "Hey everybody. Thanks for coming out tonight." He smiled, scanning the crowd as he spoke. He swore he heard a few marriage proposals and offers of babies, but he only chuckled softly, away from the mic. His response was even more noise and cheering, that once made him feel amazing, but he just... wasn't up for it anymore.

"We really appreciate your support, so without any more delay..." A playful smirk pull on his lips, it was the closest he'd felt to enjoying himself in a long time as Evan started to jam out a riff while Zach strumming out the bass. The drums came alive and Charlie took up his own instrument, launching into a popular song.

As he sang, his eyes slowly moved over the faces of the young men and women in the crowd. His eyes flicked downward to the front most rows of the concert hall. The little jingle 'one of these things is not like the other' sprang into his head as he pulled back from the mic. Disturbed. Not the band, but their tee was sitting just a few row away from him. He couldn't say that they were bad if he wanted to be struck down where he stood. He was into them, and the fact that the person wearing it looked less than pleased to be here (much like he was) made him smiled a bit more. s**t! Eye contact made! Abort mission, abort! ABORT! he thought frantically and picked up his cue, continuing the song and strumming out chords.

An eternity slipped by before concert was through, with a few closing words, The Sexperts were back behind the curtain and away from the hundreds of pairs of eyes. Charlie found the couch in a hurry and flopped down on it, sprawling his entire body across it and threw an arm over his eyes

"Man we were pretty low on the hype tonight." Scott observed, taking a seat on an unused speaker with a sigh, rubbing his temples. The other two only nodded in agreement, looking to Charlie who felt their eyes on his face.

"Yeah, it was probably me, I'm not feeling so hot tonight." He muttered. Charlie slowly got up from the couch and shuffled to the cooler box next to the food table. "I've been feeling kind of off for a while, I think I need a br--"

"Excuse me! I was wondering if you could... Erm... Well, then... Anne would hate me right now...". The four young men looked a bit shocked to see a girl with crazy hair standing before them, no signs of a backstage pass on her person (that they could see at least). There was a small silence, as Charlie registered her shirt. Disturbed girl. He wondered absently if she listened to them or just owned the shirt just because she could.

"There goes all hopes and dreams of never hearing about your band anymore..."

That was definitely a surprise. The four guys looked at each other for a split second before Evan, over in his corner opened his mouth, confusion setting heavily in his face, "Um... sorry?" He tried, scratching his chin.

"...Are you lost or something?" He offered, stepping up to her slowly.

It was interesting to watch people, Evangelina had observed in her twenty-two years, but thus far no one that seemed to fall asleep so quickly. Though, the crazy thing was, he still wrote, maybe he hadn't fallen asleep, just really into the last few words he was writing. She knew she could be like that sometimes. But hey, everyone had their quirks, right? And apparently one of his quirks was to scratch the back of his neck. She couldn't help but observe how cute and bashful the gesture made his look, especially when he suddenly jerked his arm down to his side once more.

Eva watched him fiddle with his notebook, quickly changing to a different page. He was a curious kind of guy.
