Students come from all over the country to go to Los Angeles Ocean View Boarding Academy (LAOVBA). Cliques have formed, and returning students are excited to see their friends again. New students are always welcome.

The school has 2 buildings, the dorm building and the academic building. There is also a nice outdoor area on campus with benches and tables.

Dorm building

On the first floor of the building there is the school library as well as an arcade and a large lounge area. The basement has the gym and the pool. The 2nd through 5th floors have the students dorms. The 2nd and 4th floors are the girls dorms and the 3rd and 5th floors are the boys dorms. On each floor, there's a smaller lounge dedicated for the students living on that floor. Each dorm has provided beds, a table and chairs and a couple windows. There are 5 rooms per floor, 1, 3, and 5 being on the left side of the hallway, 2 and 4 on the other. 1, 3, and 5 are smaller, therefore 2 person dorms, whereas 2 and 4 are larger and house 3 students.

The building opens to a long hallway that leads to all the various rooms in the first floor. An immediate right will lead to the stairway and elevator that go to all 6 floors (basement-5). After the elevator on the right is the main office.

Academic building


The first floor is mostly the school's large cafeteria as well as a couple classrooms. The 2nd floor is English and Social Science classes. The 3rd floor is Math and Science classes. The 4th floor is Language classes and electives.

Cafeteria

The cafeteria is open from 6 am to 9 pm. Students can come and eat whenever they have free time, but are encouraged to come for the designated meal times (see schedule).


School rules

1. No violence, bullying, drugs, alcohol, or weapons are allowed on school property. Any students caught will be suspended or worse.

2. Students may leave campus on weekends and in addition weekdays after school hours as long as their grades are good. They need to sign out when they leave and predict when they'll be back by, so if they're not back staff will go searching for them.

3. Students may have friends or family visit on weekends or weekdays after school as long as they leave before 9 pm.


Roleplay rules and other things

1. Write 4-10 sentences on average.

2. Post frequently. Preference is every day, but the limit is 1 week.

3. Your character will be given away after a week unless you let me know ahead of time.

4. please write chronologically. It gets really confusing when people write things that happened before something, which would alter everything after.

5. Always aim for good grammar and spelling.

6. You can have up to 3 characters. If you have 3 you should be playing both genders. All should be from different cliques.

7. Your characters can not be siblings with each other. If you want your character to have a sibling at the school, find another role player on the OOC who is interested in playing them. PM me the profiles or post in the OOC.

8. The rp will start when here is at least 4 characters in each clique.

9. This is a PG 13 rp. No sex scenes. Minor swearing. Minor drug and alcohol use is ok, but please don't make it the center of the plot. Minor implied sex, but don't overdo it.

10. Characters of all gender and sexual orientations are welcome and encouraged.

11. Try to do plotting in the OOC especially if you're character is a returning student to develop previous relationships with other returning students.

12. Write in 3rd person only.

13. Everyone controls the staff. Friends/family members are only controlled by those related.

Age: 17
Grade: Junior
Sexuality: Bisexual
Years attended: 2
Personality: Kind, Bubbly, Quiet, Shy, Short Tempered, Protective, and Blunt.
Family: An older brother, a little brother. Mother, and Father 
Short bio: Kayla grew up in Los Angeles with her mother and brothers most of her life. Her father left to go over seas for work, so he was hardly around, making her mother seem as if she was a single mother raising three kids. Since she grew up with boys, even her relatives were mostly guys and maybe two or three girls, she was 'exposed', as her mother would say, to video games, wrestling, and a few other things while growing up. The wrestling didn't last very long, but the video games stuck for a very long time, to this day even. Anyways, she was close to her younger brother and always played with the kid, but she wasn't as close with her other brother, which she didn't mind since he had grew close to their younger sibling since he was actually had a brother rather than a sister. Still the two quarreled, but that was only over who beat who in a game. Other than that, she has a practically normal life.

Name: Booker "Beau" Marshall
Age: 16
Grade: 11
Sexuality: Bisexual
Years Attended: 2
Personality: Quiet, confident, affectionate, curious, extroverted, optimistic, and impulsive.
Family: His big sister.
Short bio: Beau's parents left when he was young and never came back, he was never told why, but, his sister who was 15 years older than him raised her brother. Now, 10 years later, Booker's in a 'swanky' school in LA. His sister's really proud that she can send him there since they used to live on minimum wage. They moved a lot and usually had to share a bed since they couldn't afford two bedrooms (or many other things). Booker wasn't necessarily proud of what they'd done from time to time (such as stealing and other illegal acts). Anyway, Beau dresses in drag because he got comfortable with it growing up in his big sister's hand-me-downs. He started going by an androgynous name so people would stop teasing him as much but he still shamelessly goes to the boys' dorm floors. Booker doesn't talk much, not because he doesn't want to, but, because his voice became 'so' masculine after puberty and he gets weird looks. He doesn't really care what people think of him since he's been through so much and is just happy that his sister and him are where they're at. He doesn't know where, but, somewhere along the road Beau fell in love with theater, he got into the clubs whenever he could considering how often he switched schools. He's happy that he's been here for two years now, which means he's been able to be in the same club for that span of time which is awesome!

Name: Riley Campbell
Age: 16
Grade: 10th (Sophomore Year)
Sexuality: Straight
Years attended: 1
Personality: Relaxed, passionate, quiet, patient, creative, loving, closed off
Family: Mother, deceased brother
Short bio: Riley is returning to the academy for his second year of high school. He lives closer to the campus than any other high school in the city and therefore his mom decided it would be easier for him to go here for his high school education. The sophomore is very passionate about music and can play several random instruments, big and small. He started by learning how to sing at a young age and grew into music that way. His older brother, Mark (who was 19), taught him how to play guitar before the family got into a severe car accident due to being hit by a drunk driver that left his brother in a comatose state and his mom paralyzed from the waist down. Riley only left the scene with some stitches and a broken arm, which is minor compared to the rest of his family's injuries. Riley was 11 when this happened but ever since then, Riley dreamed to become a musician to make his brother proud. His mother had a hard time dealing with Mark's death and having to deal with being disabled and therefore got into heavy drugs. It took a couple years for her to recover fully and quitting drugs to become clean. His mother and him still have a great relationship, although it got really rocky the first couple years after the car accident. Riley always turned to playing guitar and singing as a resort to deal with his brother's death, poverty, his mom's drug addiction, and other things he's had to face in his life. He also enjoys writing poetry as a stress reliever too.

Short bio: Corey is the middle child of a broken, but happy family. Corey and her older brother fell in love with cars, following their dad’s footsteps. Her little brother decided to live with Corey’s mom and stepfather and because the moved across the country it was very rare to see them. Even though it was just her brother and dad, life was good. Corey grew up under the hood of a car and covered in grease. She knew how it rough it with the guys and how to outrun a cop on the street. Sadly Corey is a bit of a hot head and at times can think with her fists and got kicked out of her last school. She now has switched schools and goals are just to make it out, and find a car meet.

Personality: He's always tired, gets bored quickly, he's smart but usually acts like an idiot, he's not out of the closet so he flirts with everything that walks, and he loves to 'think outside of the box'.
Family: His mother and his disappearing-act father.
Short bio: Eric grew up in the big apple, doing so made him used to talking to people. He was the aftermath of a one night stand his mother had with an old friend of hers, so, he never knew his father. He wasn't sure if his mother did, either, since she never talked about him. He didn't really care about that, anyway. He's sociable but he doesn't really just talk to specific 'cliques' since he never finds himself to fit in well with any of them. Generally a good student, Eric still finds himself sneaking cigarettes in when nobody's looking at school.

He was bullied in junior high, and became anti-social to prevent anything further. His mother noticed him trying less and less to make friends and sent him to boarding school hoping it'll force him to make friends. He didn't want to go, but went along with it being so close to home anyway.

Personality: Jae Hwa is very friendly, she likes to be out, sometimes she can be shy (especially around someone she likes), she's quirky, and loves to make the people around her smile. She really loves to dress up and change her hair and make up all the time, as well.
Family: Jae Haw has her mother.
Short bio: Jae Hwa grew up in South Korea, her father had walked out on her and her mother at a very young age. She doesn't really remember his face and her mother doesn't keep photos of him either. Growing up with only a mother in one of the busiest cities in Korea wasn't easy for the two of them but they made it work. Her mother didn't really spend much on her self so she spent most of her money on Jae Hwa. About 6 months ago the economy in Korea hit hard and this made the two come to america. They spent five and a half months with her grand mother. She treated them with such kindness but her mother was indeed a woman who didn't want to lean on others so that is when they found them selves in Los Angeles. Her mother found a job as an assistant for a clothing company so they were doing quite well for them right now. So on to a new year in her first American school!

Name: Jaylyn "Jay" Eve
Age: 16
Grade: Junior
Sexuality: Straight as an arrow
Years attended: New to the school
Assumed clique: Popular;although, she likes to mingle with everyone and some times leans towards the nerd side
Personality: Jaylyn is a bit odd, since she enjoys reading books and 'nerdy' things like anime, but is bold and social enough to be considered a prep. She enjoys hanging out and talking to everyone, but in class she tends to be very quiet. She has a good, kind, and giving nature to. She loves to take on challenges and is a natural born leader. She is usually very good at making friends with anyone and everyone, and, despite how free spirited she acts, she also suffers from trust issues, self-confidence problems and extreme anxiety. 
Family: Younger sister, baby brother, Mother, Father, and quite a bit of extended family
Short bio: Jay's life actually started in France, since her stubborn mother decided to go on a business despite her baby being due only a week after she got back. Sure enough, Jay ended up being born prematurely in France. After that, Jay and her mother went home on the next flight, and Jay lived a comfortable life. Her father was a politician working in the capital and her mother's job was classified, although they said she was in the military. At age 14 Jay's mom was asked to move to the west coast, but her father had to stay. Since her mom was home more often, Jay decided to go with her mom. At first she went to a standard public school, but wasn't challenged academically enough, and transferred to LAOVBA in hopes of a challenge.

Short Bio: Angel isnt very good in the whole self-esteem department. One reason she preforms, other than her enjoyment, is because her mother said she always loved her singing before passing away. She's never been the best when it comes to school, so she always tries to make the best out of a situation. Coming from a small town, Angel understands not many people have heard of it, but she doesn't mind and, when home, can almost always be found outside playing her guitar.

It was a wonder her father let her come to this school, but he did. So now her bruises have a chance to heal while she socializes with new people.

Name: Cassandra Acosta
Age: 16
Grade: Junior
Sexuality: Lesbian
Years attended: New Student
Assumed clique: Theatre
Personality: Mostly serious, shy but eager to make friends, practical, responsible, big-sisterly, pessimistic, melancholy and unhappy with life
Family: Older sister, younger deceased sister, father, mother, stepfather
Short bio: Growing up in New Jersey, Cassandra was into playing several instruments. She’s talented at the drums, her main passion, but she’s never had a chance to perform outside her church. It was there that she was mentored by the church band’s leader, who played both drums and guitar. She was in band in middle school, and so she can play some trumpet, though she’s not so into it. She also started on the guitar freshman year, and is getting better at it. When she suddenly fell in love with her best friend Elizabeth, her beliefs came into conflict with her feelings, but she eventually confessed her feelings and the two started dating. Upon discovering this, her mother sent her away to boarding school in California, both for her to be far away from Elizabeth and to still be close to the arts. Additionally, the U.S. History teacher is her mother’s cousin. Although Cassandra is brokenhearted to have been dumped by Elizabeth (who turned out to have been cheating on her with a boy anyway) and far away from her family (whom she loves despite their condemnation and harsh judgment), she has delved deeper into music as an escape.

Name: Serenity Alice Godsmark
Age: 17
Grade: Senior
Sexuality: Straight
Years attended: 3
Personality: Serenity is a quiet woman, gentle and as graceful as a swan upon the lake. She was blessed with a beautiful face and though she'd hoped to have a different career, she instead is a quiet model. She doesn't party, doesn't do drugs and she is an all around good girl, but her passion lies in animals. She is easy to get along with, but she's rather slack when it comes to her job, not in an unreliable way - but at photo shoots she casts dreamy gazes out the window of the buildings, dreaming she was free. It's been many years since she's raised her voice, or cried, or even let out a loud gale of laughter, as if along with her hopes and dreams her ability to express emotions in a drastic degree has been locked away deep within her. That does not mean her smile doesn't come easy. She is always willing to give those out - but other extreme emotions are locked up tight within her.
Family: None
Short bio: Serenity's father was a big time entrepreneur who was successful in his life time. His work carried his family, her and her mother, to Brisbane, Australia when she was very young (5). Though born in the states, she managed to blend well, and live her life out well, and the only flaw in her life was that her father found he had a taste for young Australian Sheila's and the only thing holding her family together was her mother's tolerance of adultery because the money was good. Eventually her mother found her own consorts...mostly young men. Her mother began to party and as Serenity grew older and more capable, she was left alone more often then not. She became a model at 13, and began to fund her own living, off the money she made. When Serenity came back to the states for business and modelling opportunities fresh out of the 8th grade the agent she took on named Vanessa found a maternal string for her, and she was glad when Serenity agreed to put herself through highschool. Using the funds that Serenity made, Vanessa made all of the arrangements with LAOVBA - a private boarding school where Serenity's fame would hopefully not put her in the middle of all the scrutiny - each year putting her modelling career on semi-hiatus', accepting a few jobs here and there.

Name:Ritsuki &Ruki& Nakagawa
Age: 18
Grade: 12
Sexuality:Straight
Years attended: This is the first year
Assumed clique: Theatre
Personality: Ruki can be quiet at times but that's usually only if something is on his mind. All the other times he'll talk to people if they interest him. He neither prefers to be alone or with people (it doesn't bother him either way). However, if they get annoying he'll tell them what's on his mind in order to shut them up. He's daring and likes to explore new places in all kinds of ways.
Family: Mother, Father and younger sister back home
Short bio: Ruki was always good with school. Never had to worry about failing and even passed the exams to get into high school. His family isn't anything out of the ordinary either. He helps his younger sister out with her school work when he isn't bothering her like an older brother does. When he was 14, him and a couple of his friends put together a small band. They aren't too famous yet; they've done a couple opening shows for smaller bands and so far they have a very tiny following.
Why is he here? Well, this school year, Ruki was given a sort of scholarship to study abroad. He decided to take it not only to make connections but also for the experience that he hopes will be an interesting twist in the music him and his fellow band members make.

Personality: Quiet, Awkward, Sarcastic, Kind
Family: Mother- Julie Frost Older Sister- Kendra Frost
Short bio: Cole came from an odd family set up. After his father left soon after his birth all he was left with was his kind mother and his demon of an older sister. That meant that since his mother had to work all the time to support the three, it gave Kendra complete control over him. She made him do a lot of things, mostly chores and serving her like she was a Princess. Did I forget to bring up that she still thinks shes a Princess? Well...she doesn't call herself a Princess, but she sure expects everyone to treat her like one. Anyways, back to Cole, he had to deal with giving pedicures and acting as a seat cushion from age six to age 16. So when he heard of a boarding school that would actually accept him he jumped for the chance.

Name: Gemini "Gem" Louise Devushka
Age: 18
Grade: Senior
Sexuality: Bisexual
Years attended: New student
Assumed clique: Outcasts
Personality: Outgoing and devious. She's one of the ones that sneaks alcohol and cigarettes into the dorms, and goes to parties outside of school. Gemini is probably one of the toughest girls you meet. She'll be the last person to tell you anything is bothering her because she's used to dealing with stuff herself. She's also very hard headed and stubborn; when she knows she's right she'll fight for it. She'll even fight for it when she's wrong.
Family: Just her aunt.
Short bio: If you thought Gemini's story was a happy one, boy are you mistaken. She didn't grow up in a normal family, with two loving parents and an older brother, like most American stereotypes. She was born in Moscow, Russia, about eighteen years ago, to a loving mother who was very, very young. She was sixteen when she had little Gemini. Her parents hated the fact that she had a child at so young, so they sent the baby off to live with an aunt that was also in Moscow. There is where Gemini grew up, not knowing who her real mother was, since she looked so much like the aunt. After she turned fourteen, the aunt told her about what happened; Gemini refused to have anything to do with the rest of the family after that. After getting into drugs and alcohol (and even starting a semi-famous band), Gemini's aunt decided to send her to a school in the USA that she had heard about.

Age: 17
Grade: Junior Year
Sexuality: Bisexual
Years attended: New
Assumed clique: Jock
Personality: Funny, kind, passionate, motivated, outgoing, open-minded, confident, caring, can sometimes be cocky
Family: 4 year old little sister, mom, dad
Short bio: Nick grew up in a privileged rich upper class home with two hard-working parents. His parents were strict and made sure their son was just as hard-working as they were. His father decided to have Nick play a bunch of sports growing up, finding they would teach him responsibility and determination. Naturally, Nick grew to love those sports and continued to participate on sports team in school and outside of school. He hopes to one day be in the NFL for a career, seeing as football is his favorite sport to play. But he also loves baseball, basketball, hockey, tennis, track, and other competitive sports. He also learned how to play guitar on the side. He still struggles with his own sexuality but currently labels himself bisexual although he hasn't come out to anyone nor has he acted upon his attraction to other boys. The reason he's switching into boarding school is for disciplinary reasons from his strict parents. Nick started doing poorly in school due to being caught up in sports, although his intelligence falls between average to above average. His parents are hoping boarding school will help him learn how to multitask school with sports.

Jackson "Jax" Gray Sanston

Jax grumbled, looking at his clock. It read 6:00 am exactly. He had been trying to get back to sleep for over an hour now, but couldn't. He was nervous because he was attending his first day at Los Angeles Ocean View Boarding Academy. He'd lived in LA his whole life, so he wasn't going to be to far from home. He hadn't really wanted to go, but his mother pushed it because she said he wasn't social enough. Boarding school's not gonna change that, mom. Jax thought to himself.

He got himself out of bed even though he was wishing he'd slept longer. After having showered and dressed himself, he went downstairs. His mother was already there, making breakfast.

"Morning Jackson."
His mother always insisted on calling him Jackson, and he didn't push to correct her.

"Morning." He grumbled.

"I'm making myself some eggs, do you want any?"


"Not hungry. The school has breakfast anyway." Jackson slouched down in one of the kitchen chairs.

Jax's mother noticed his mood and commented, "Don't worry about it. "You'll be close to home, if you want you can come home on weekends." His mother's comment didn't seem to change his mood at all.

Once Jax's mother had finished her breakfast, she grabbed her keys and turned to Jax, who was playing video games on his DS. "Ready?" She asked. He paused the game and headed out the door.

The ride was silent until arriving at the school. "Have fun." His mother said, hugging him. Jax pulled away embarrassed, hoping no one else had arrived yet.

He got out of the car and replied sighing, "I'll try."

Jax opened the door to the school, seeing a stairwell, an elevator, and what was probably the front office. He decided he should go in there first, make sure everything he thought about this place was accurate.

Setting his heavy bags down on the floor, he looked to the woman at the desk. "What time is the breakfast?" He wasn't too hungry, but he wouldn't want to miss it.

"Today, it goes from 8 to 8:55, but the cafeteria is open from 6 am to 9 pm so you're free to go there whenever you don't have a class." She sounded like she had answered this question a lot of times before, although probably not too much this year. Jax hadn't seen any other cars in the lot when his mom pulled up.

"Thanks." Jax said taking a quick look at his papers to remember which dorm was his. 305. He grabbed is bags and headed towards the elevator. Arriving at 305, Jax but the bags down, opening the door and sighing once more. "My new home." Jax said awkwardly to himself, plopping his bags on the floor next to the bed nearest to the window.

Setsuna "Snowy" Kaita


BEEP BEEP BEE-SLAM

Setsuna blinked awake, much to her own refusal, to begin the day and new year at LAOVBA. She yawned, brushing blue hair from her face. The girl silently screamed in argument due to the fact she had to get out and couldn't just fall back asleep.

The girl quickly dressed and picked up her belongings, then dashed out the door, an apple in her mouth. Before long she crammed herself into a cab, bags scrawled over the seat, and spat the apple into her hand. "LAOVBA, driver man" Snowy directed simply, taking a bite from the fruit.

Mere moments into the ride, Setsuna already whipped out her 3Ds, loading her file on her game. A while later, the car eventually made it to the school. She paid the driver, gathered everything, and began walking to the school. The blunette made her way to the dormitory. There weren't many students on campus yet, but she knew it was smarter to get here sooner beforefirst day chaos ensued. Before long, she made it to the familiar door of 202. Setsuna opened the door with a yawn. With that, she stepped into the room, officially beginning the beginning of another year.

Eric had taken the first flight after noon out of New York the night before school started, and finally woke up (he'd went to sleep shortly after he got to the hotel and showered) at about 6:10. He sat up, yawning loudly and stretching his arms over his head. "Can't believe school came back so quickly." He said, smiling. The summer break had been a long one, he'd picked up a full-time job and his mother had started dating again so she wasn't around when he was awake and vice-versa.

He stood from the bed, and went to get dressed. Then, he gathered up his stuff, this year he knew better than to bring a lot. Last year he'd brought too much and didn't end up using most of it, so, all of his luggage fit into a (large) backpack. He fished in his pocket and pulled out a cigarette and his lighter. "Just like old times, this is my last time openly for like eight months. Like an ashamed woman with child."

He went outside and haled a cab, getting a ride to the school. He looked over his papers, finding out that he would be in a different dorm this year, which was probably for the best, especially if his old roommate still went there. They didn't get along well. When he arrived, since he already knew the school, Eric went straight to his dorm and claimed a bed, flopping down on it. He wasn't worried about unpacking, but, he knew there wouldn't be many people there for quite some time, so, he did anyway, rolling off of his bed and onto the floor after a moment.


little comment here: This is an old layout, I took a bunch off of it but it still seems like overkill.

All along I tried to pretend it didn't matter If I was alone
But deep down I know
If you were gone For even a day I wouldn't know which way to turn
Cause I'm lost without you.


Serenity was all business. Business mode had started at 4 am this morning. She'd gotten to the school at 6 am, found her dorm and entered it. She unpacked her things - slowly. Not that she had much. She had just brought the essential clothes - and was always able to buy more on weekends. She had her phone, her ipod and her laptop was stored safely in the bag at her feet. It was 7:30 now, and Serenity was already in the cafeteria - her things unpacked and ready to begin her day of school - after she took care of one last business ordeal outside of it. She was speaking into a phone, uncaring. As far as she knew she was the only one in the cafeteria, a barely touched danish and a steam cup of coffee on the table amongst the papers that she'd some how managed to scatter around in front of her.

"Okay I understand that, but that is NOT the price you quoted my agent when she spoke- Yes, My agent, Vanessa Felders." She snapped, her Australian accent coming out thicker in her ire. She rolled her eyes as an answer came from the other line. "So you're saying, basically, you're trying to charge me double what you would anyone else. Why is that? Because I'm young? Because I'm not quite 18, or because you think that just because of my profession I can afford a few grand more?" She growled into the phone. "No Mate, listen 'ere. I already know the price quote you gave my agent and THAT is what I am going to be paying. If not, then I can take my business to another real estate agency, and guess what? That will be about 70 grand of commission you WON'T be getting any time soon. This property is perfect, and I want it, but I will not be played for a fool buddy." She spoke rapidly, her eyes were narrowed ferociously, until whatever was said on the other line seemed to simmer the girls temper. Her face smoothed out, a smug smile placed upon her lips as she began to jolt down information.

"See? Was that so bloody hard? Okay perfect. I will pass this on to Vanessa who will be taking care of this for me- Why won't I be? Because you privileged real estate agents don't work on weekends which is the only time I am free from now until at least June. Just pretend Vanessa is me. Careful though mate, her temper is worse than mine. Now, She'll be giving you a call sometime within the week to handle this. Yes, of course. Once the deed needs to be signed you will probably be accompanying her to my location to over see it. What? - What am I using such a huge chunk of land for? It's going to be a wild-life conservation. Anyways, I must go, I've gotta a cuppa in front of me that is cooling rapidly and I'd hate it to go to waste. Vanessa Felders. That's right...F-E-L-D-E-R-S. Yes. Mmhm. Okay. Thank you, bye now."
She hung up the phone and put it on the table, rolling her eyes and rubbing her temple.

Honestly, damn her agent for procrastinating. She'd wanted to get all of this done BEFORE she started school. She picked up her coffee and sipped it carefully her blue eyes narrowed in thought. Yes. She was glad that it was still early... The first day of school this year was bound to be madness....



I get kind of dark Let it go too far
I can be obnoxious at times But try and see my heart
Cause I need you need now, So don't let me down
You're the only thing in this world I would die without

Mood: Tired

--------------------------------------------------------------------


Cole let out a yawn as he woke up on the first day of boarding school. He smiled a little, happy to be away from his home, and got himself ready as quickly as he could, eating a quick and easy breakfast of some off brand pop tart and was out the door with his bag. Cole hadn't been able to make the whole trip to the school yesterday, so he rented out a hotel room to stay the night in. Cole hopped into a cab and was off to school, still holding onto his excitement to finally be gone from his home.

In a few minutes he was in front of the campus and smiled, climbing out and getting his bags out of the trunk before paying the driver what he needed and watching him drive off. After about a minute of mental preparation he walked into the school to find his dorm room. It took him a few minutes of wandering the wrong halls but he eventually came across his room. 301. Cole relaxed when he saw the number and stretched before unlocking the door and dragging his bags in, tossing them onto the bed he claimed and laid down to relax, taking in his surroundings.

Jax grumbled to himself as he started to unpack. As he was unpacking, he remembered his computer and decided the rest could come later. He brought the laptop on his bed and sat down with it. He was glad to have some time to himself before school started.

OOC: Does he have a roommate yet?

Corey pulls up to the boarding school in her firebird that she spent all summer fixing. The exterior looked nice and so did the seats, but the engine gave her problems all the time. So no surprise the first thing she did when she pulled into school instead of looking for her room was to jack it up and fix a thing or two. After doing what she could, she grabs her schedule and dorm information. Her hands had oil on them and she grabbed it perfectly where her down number was. Corey tried her best to read it and headed towards what she thought was her dorm. Instead when she walks in she finds a somewhat cute boy laying on a bed. " Holy crap sorry. I must be in the wrong room. I'm sorry. Any chance I could use your bathroom though? My hands are a little dirty. I'm Corey by the way." Corey looks at the boy with an embarrassed smile on her face.

Jax looked up nervously when the door opened. He watched out of the corner of his eye as his roommate came in remarking about the bed. Jax laughed inwardly, but tried to keep his eyes on his laptop. Besides, he was too nervous to speak up first.


OOC: It's fine for an intro (:

Mood: Confused

--------------------------------------------------------------------


It took Cole a few moments to figure out what had happened. And when he did he felt his cheeks turn a light pink shade. Sure he hadn't done anything in the room yet, heck he hadn't even unpacked. But it was still a little odd to have a random girl walk in, mistaking room numbers. But even then he gave her a small smile and sat up, stretching a little.

"Sure you can...its right through that door I think...um...its Cole.." Cole told Corey as he looked her over quickly. She did look like she had oil on her hands. What the heck was she doing? Fixing a car? Then Cole realized that that actually could of been a possibility and he mentally slapped himself, happy he didn't say anything.
