Well...we don't know exactly why students would want to lounge on the roof, but they seem to like it. Benches and ashtrays have been provided. As usual, keep it clean or suffer the consequences.

Jezz was suddenly tugged up the stairway and when the door opened she sheilded her eyes from the bright rays of sunlight that poured into her eyes. She blinked a few times adjusting to the new atmosphere and she looked around. They were....on the roof. She walked out and looked around. She could see all around, it was amazing. She'd been on roofs before but midori was pretty much situated in the middle of nowhere so the scenery was much better than the usual city beauty. "Woah" she breathed unconciously as she walked over to the fenced edge of the roof and gripped it looking out. It was amazing!

Ariko walked up behind Jezz and put a hand on her shoulder.
"Isn't it beautiful. Ever since I came up here that first time, I've been addicted to it. Never had anything this beautiful around me..." he turned Jezz slightly and gazed into her eyes, "ever."
He almost couldn't believe the words coming out of his own mouth. It almost felt like someone else was talking. Was he really falling that hard for this girl?
"It's so big on this roof that they never bothered installing cameras. The only way they know you're up here is if you come during class. That's when they have the roll call, and shock whoever doesn't show up. Then they turn on the GPS tracker and just waltz right on up here and you wake up in 'detention'. Makes 'admissions' look like a birthday party."
There was a short pause as Ariko scanned the horizon. The sun was beginning to set and was hovering just above it.
"But as nice as this place is in the sunlight, you outta see it when its dark. The sky fills with stars, more stars than you can count. I know, I've fallen asleep too many times up here to remember. It's fine if you want to come here by yourself. But I just want to tell you, I really enjoy being here with you, and I really don't want to be here without you now."
"Did that s**t just pour out of my mouth. I gotta ound like some desperate loser. Or at least a bad case of puppy love. This is ******** nuts, all I didn't do is tell the girl 'I Love You'. Aww geez...Ariko...your pathetic."
Ariko beat himself up in his mind as he gazed upon the vast mountain range in the distance.

Jezz's first awkward moment was when he pretty much fixated into her eyes and just named her beautiful. Who did this guy think he was? Don jaun?!
She didn't like the sound of this detention, though she was pretty sure that they wouldn't beable to break her no matter what detention they put her in. She was about to say something sarcastic and bitchy when his mouth continued to run and pretty much professed his undying love to her! She had no idea what to say, hell if she knew the kid was a head case she wouldn't have kissed him in the hallway.
"Welll....uh....i mean... it's nice that you like me and all...." she really had no idea how to finish what she was saying! She usually just laughed in guys's faces and walk away but for some reason she just couldn't do that.

"Oh s**t, she must be totally freaked out right now. Say something...something...something...got it." Ariko thought to himself as he listened to Jezz's voice.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to...uh..come on so strong. I...I...I just didn't know what to say. It just came out. I didn't mean to scare you."
Ariko pulled his had away from her shoulder and turned away.
"I won't bother you. I'm not going to try anything either, I did promise you that. And I'm not crazy, I may be a little foolish, but I'm not crazy."
He stared at the sun as it slowly sank behind the mountains. He felt bad for acting the way he did. If only he could have restrained himself earlier, maybe she wouldn't be so weirded out right now.

Jezz felt mildly bad as the guy suddenly seemed to be stumbling over himself.
"Well hell sparky, as long as you don't feel me up and you stop professing a feeling that you can't possibly feel yet then I'm good" she said leaning against the fence and sitting down "Getting ahead of yourself doesn't help much. Especially in other situations"
She wasn't going to elaborate on that. "So what else do they have around here, anything....fun?" she asked lifting up one of the pantlegs and running her hand over her shin. There was a small bruise and she smiled knowing it was from her fight with those guards.

Ariko turned and gave Jezz a smile and a nod. Affirming that he understood that he was being too quick to assume curiousity with love and that things would be a lot slower than they appeared to be.
"Well, have you been to the cafeteria yet. It's actually pretty good, and it open til midnight. Nice to get a late night snack every now and then. There's a small screening room in the union, sometimes the movies are oldies but goodies. Um...Let me think, there's always the gym. The swimming pool is nice. It's olympic size and the water is nice and warm."
He raised a hand to his chin and thought of what he might do. Probably just sit in the union and watch TV. She didn't want to do that, there was probably only a hockey game or something on. That would definitely bore her to death.
"Otherwise, I usually just go back to my room, do some work, and maybe hang out on the floor in the dorm. I'll visit some people, if they're not busy"

Jezz sighed as she pretty much slouched against the fence "Thus it's as boring as any other place. Can't get into trouble, can't even have any fun. Hell i bet they don't even have an alarm system to set off"
She kicked her boots backand forth along the cement as she gazed bored at them "Never seems to be anything to pass the time" she patted down her pockets and remembered that she didn't have any of her stuff "Besides the ******** cleaned me out and i have nothing of my own except the clothes I was wearing...alot of help that does me"

"How about we go down to the store, I'll buy you something as sort of a friendship gift."
Ariko forgot what it was like being new here. He was so stuck with his daily routines that he didn't remember how boring this place can really be at times. He just stuck it out and tried to keep the shock count down. That way he could earn a few extra credits when reports were analyzed.
"I got about seventy five tousand credits stored up. Just looking for an excuse to buy something nice. Sometimes it pays to stay out of trouble. Come on, you'll never get a chance to enjoy the place if you can't at least go swimming. I'll buy you a suit, just don't drain me yet, we're supposed to be friends right."
He smiled and turned towards the stairwell door. "Aren't you coming?"
-----> School Store

Jezz sighed and stood up following him. "A swimsuit? Let me guess the same icky green like these uniforms? What hell is this and what happened to the fire and torture....the only thing they are missing here is the fire"
She ran a hand through her hair grumbling about cruel and inhuman punishment being uniforms as she also said she didn't want him to buy her anything, or spend any money on her. She looked at her card and wondered what she could get, from what she gathered she had starting points....could she get a sketch book?

======> from F-7
"Ah, they're peeking through." Ariko gazed at the stars as he lay across a small raised section of roof. "Wonder what Jezz is up to now...STOP IT!!!"
He sat up violently and started knocking himself over the head with both fists.
"You got to stop thinking about her. She said to slow s**t down. SLOW THE ******** DOWN ARIKO!! You're moving way too fast for her, and yourself. AAARRRGGGHHHH!!!!"
The scream echoed in the vast surroundings of Midori. Ariko laid down on the roof again and gaze at the stars.
"What the ******** am I supposed to do? Tell me something stars, tell me something."

Gwen stumbled up the darkened stair. Where does this go?! she wondered. She heard a voice shouting up ahead. I'll check it out, and if this is somewhere private I'll leave... she decided. She came to the top of the stair and saw all the stars. "WOW!" she accidently exclaimed audibly. She noticed a boy leaning on the edge. "Hi," she said, "Uh, is this a private area, I can leave..." she trailed off.

"Huh...? Oh well a...not really. Truthfully we really aren't supposed to be up here, but it's after school hours and no one checks here otherwise so."
Ariko said abruptly as he tried to keep his mind off Jezz. It seemed like every thing he thought of always came back to her. He snapped back, shaking his head as if clearing the fog from it.
"Oh, you must excuse my rudeness. Here I am talking to you and I haven't even introduced myself. I'm Ariko Sato." Ariko rose to his feet and walked over to the girl. "And if I may ask your name lovely lady?"
Ariko flashed a smile and extended his hand waiting for the girl to introduce herself.

"Guinever Juliek," she replied "which is much too much name for me, so Gwen is fine..." she smiled back. "It's beautiful up here." she commented, "It makes me feel connected to the rest of the world." she sighed.

"Funny how you have to get taken away from something to miss it so much, eh Gwen."
Ariko shook the girls hand and looked back up at the sky. He loved being up here. He thought for a moment that he would have fallen asleep had she not showed up.
"Well, it looks like I won't be napping here tonight. So, how are doing tonight. It's not often I have visitors when I'm counting stars."
Ariko looked back to Gwen and gave a smile. Maybe she could keep his mind off Jezz for a while.
