Claire & Rosy

"Shi, shi....." Claire agreed falling back a step before mumbling to herself in Chinese, "Wǒ xiǎng dǎ," as she tended to complain when Rosy got her way. Which was pretty much always.

"Oh don't be a sourpuss, we're in America, the land of the bald eagles and hot guys, save the trumpet playing to impress daddy Woo," Rosy laughed pointing a wagging finger at the Asian girl who instantly gave her a dirty look.

"Ai Ya!!!My father owns a restaurant in Taiwan, he's not some creepy Yīshēng! You know I don't like it when you say that," Claire whined pressing her fingers to her temples in agitation.

"Zoe does that in history class while taking her exams," Rosy reminded the girl as she pointed to her nervous reflex.

"Ai Ya!" Claire grumbled pulling her hands away from her face as she pushed past the door to the courtyard. Her voice a little louder than she expected. "Let's just do this already," she sighed not at all appeased with her friend.

"Sorry, Sorry, you know I love you Claire-Bear," Rosy apologized sliding up to give the Chinese girl a tight hug before winking at Lucy, "Right Lucy-Lu? Claire is our little fortune cookie.... Holy Shit is that Abbie Smith and her gang hitting on my man?" Rosy groaned in disgust before letting go of Claire to stomp towards them, intent on breaking up whatever little game that tricky little drama girl was playing before accidentally running headfirst into Caiden Millhouse.

Dr. Daniel Woo
"Okay Carson, you know the drill," Dr. Woo instructed snapping his latex gloves onto his hands before picking up the clipboard which sat next to his computer.

His office was cold and sterile. The room was a gleaming white; white tiles, white walls, white desk, white computer, white cabinets, and white patient examination table. It was no secret that Daniel Woo was a perfectionist, one who prided himself on keeping everything neat and orderly. But people were messy and Woo had to hide a look of irritation as Carson Anderson accidentally crinkled the perfectly placed paper as she got onto the examination table.

"Okay Carson, let's start from the beginning. How are you feeling today?"

Joshua

Joshua passed his eraser back to Ryder before wiping pink eraser stubble from his mathematics notes. The library was quiet this time of day, from what Joshua had heard in the hall between classes most students were out in the courtyard. It was a nice day out, a little too hot but that's what he gets for growing up in Washington. Sadly though he had a Trig test later in the week which meant there was no time for relaxing outside. Right now he was busy at work next to his also focused best friend. Sam and Zoe had Advanced Chemistry with Donovan this period which meant that the two of them could focus on Math and not have to talk about the boring World Literature paper they all four had due for Le Croix on Monday.

"So dude, how did your appointment go with Woo today?" Joshua broke the silence rubbing his sore arm. It had taken a few times for Woo to find a vein for his bloodwork and Joshua was convinced that Woo had done it on purpose for being ten minutes late. It's not his fault Birdy was so behind in their tutoring lessons.

Aaron & Faye
Aaron's eye's widened slightly at Abbie's comment. He couldn't be that oblivious could he? He had assumed it was just a purely friendly interaction between the two not that she wasn't beautiful he was just a very focused person. A moment passed and he realized that they were all staring at him. He ran a hand through his hair giving Abbie one of his charming smiles.

Faye frowned as she watched Aaron cautiously. He was really quiet and she was about to throw Melodie's sunscreen at him when he finally spoke.

"I would love to take you on a date." Aaron replied after a moment. "Though normally I would have liked to ask you out but I like that you are upfront about what you want." He said with a grin as he reached out grabbing her hand gently and placing a slight kiss on her soft skin. It was actually pretty comforting having a girl make the first move.

Carson Anderson
Carson sat on the lab table in the room looking around at the write walls. She hated that room it felt so empty and made her feel empty. "I'm doing good Mr. Woo." She said as she kicked her dangling legs, she was fairly short compared to most people in general and could never touch the ground in most of her seats.

She hated this part of the day the needles and the questions. It was like a tiny little hell. She hated needles and being interrogated so this was always sonething she dreaded but she wasn't going to avoid it again the one time she did was enough to just endure the needle.

Abbie & Annie
"Lovely!" Abbie piped up an infectious smile on her lips before wagged her eyebrows at Faye. "So Dinner at a fancy place followed by a drive in movie?" Abbie joked motioning around them as if there were billions of restaurants to choose from. "My dad just sent me the newest season of the Walking Dead on DVD, we can go for a walk tonight after it gets dark, find a place to watch it on my laptop eh, you can help me critique it." She finally giggled letting slip an almost schoolgirl laugh. Aaron was cute, but he was also pretty witty when it came to words, perhaps she could get some inspiration for her blog while most likely playing a riveting game of tonsil hockey.

Annie frowned slightly as Abbie wiped out the Walking Dead season, that was supposed to be what all four girls were doing tonight, but Annie supposed it could wait. Abbie was into Aaron and apparently Aaron was into Abbie, or at least he said yes. "We could always watch Chicago in my room again tonight?" Annie offered to Faye and Melodie before closing her Jane Austen book.

Dr. Daniel Woo
"No dizziness, mood changes, irritability?" He asked the last one as if he expected as much. "You're taking the vitamins I've given you correct?" He asked before scribbling something onto his clipboard. "If you remember last week's overall checkup you were lacking attiquate iron and vitamin+C levels. You need to take those pills everyday," He paused flipping a sheet over before putting it back down.

Caiden & Lucy
"Yup we love you Claire. We just wouldn't be the same without you." Lucy said softly as she wrapped an arm around Claire. What happened next was almost to fast to respond to. She saw Rosy get mad and storm towards the group with Faye and she saw Caiden well someone Caiden was easily over looked to be honest so she didn't really ever expect him to be there.

Caiden was caught by surprise when he felt someone knock into him. On reflexes alone he caught whoever it was and steady them on their feet again. "Watch where you're going." He muttered as he took a step away from Rosy. He looked around to see what she was rushing about. "You'd have better luck trying to fuck a priest." He stated coldly.

Lucy cringed as she heard his voice. It was so... Empty of any real emotion. Honestly Caiden terrified her.

"Don't make it a habbit of running into me." Caiden stated as he returned his gaze to Rosy.

Carson Anderson
"I think we both know I'm always irritable." Carson said with a small smirk before he commented about her blood work from last week. "Yes I have. Everyday." She stated as she looked at her arm. As if she wasn't competent enough to take the pills.
"Dizzy? No but I fainted in gym yesterday." She added with a frown she figured that he already knew so there was no use hiding it especially since she was just standing there waiting to go onto the game when she just lost the world for a couple seconds.

Claire & Rosy

"Bloody Mampara." Rosy hissed under her breath detaching herself from Caiden. "Kiss your mother with that mouth do you Millhouse?" The Catholic girl asked in irritation. Rosy's hands were firm upon her hips as she spoke to the boy, not backing up an inch, unlike Claire who took a very large step back.

Caiden was scary, in that you might find him over top of you at night holding a six inch knife type of way and Claire wanted nothing to do with him. The rumors were scary enough. "Rosyyyy, we should get going," Claire tried, unsuccessfully to sway her friend (from a safe distance away), before giving Lucy a worried glance.. 'What should we do?' she mouthed to the blonde as Rosy went as far as to poke the terrifying boy on the chest.

Dr. Daniel Woo
"So Dizzy," he nodded as if he expected as much, before typing something quickly onto his computer. "Any cramps or muscle pain? Your menstruation cycle is still regular, yes? Even so I'm going to write you down for a checkup with my wife for Sunday," he informed her as if he didn't trust her to answer truthfully to such a grownup question. If asking a tween about her period was an awkward topic for the 47 year old man he didn't show it. "Here, go ahead and have one now, you can have the cookie and juice after," he paused pulling out a cherry sucker. "Birdy took the last Watermelon one, I'll get more next week," handing it to the girl he halted is his questions as he waited for her to pull off the wrapper. They still had a good thirty minutes before the session was going to be over and it was good to get a little sugar in her before he started any medical procedures.

Aaron, Melodie & Faye
Faye stuck her tongue out at Abbie her eyes rolling almost automatically. "No. No more Chicago!" Faye cried shaking her head. She'd managed to get ahold of some mushrooms the last time they watched chicago to make it interesting and well she may not have had the best trip and she just could not watch that movie again EVER.

Melodie laughed softly at Faye though she didn't say anything. "I don't mind watching it." She said softly. Honestly she wasn't the biggest Faye fan just because she was a little to much to deal with without Abbie who seemed to keep her from going full Faye.

Aaron chuckled slightly as he grinned at Abbie. "Sounds like a date." He said with a grin. "I can pick you up just before dinner." He said having a small idea for the date. He wouldn't be missed since he usually trained at dinner and just ate before or after so it wouldn't be odd for him to once again not show up.

Caiden & Lucy
"I don't have a mother." Caiden stated his eyes vold on Rosy. Sure there was a woman that gave birth to him but she was no mother of his as far as he was concerned it was just him in this world.

Lucy hid behind her hands shaking her head. She didn't like this one bit and she had no idea how to respond. She wanted to run and hide but she was frozen in place.

Caiden frowned when he felt her finger on his chest. Usually he didn't have to say anything to get anyone really to run away. He wasnt so great with words or people. He looked at her as he pushed her hand away. "Don't touch me." He muttered as he attempted to take a step around her and remain calm. He didn't like situations like this or anything involving another human being.

Carson Anderson
"No I don't have cramps." Carson said with a sigh. "As regular as it can be." Carson mumbled. She'd pretty much had irregular periods she could go a few months without having one but it wasn't like she was pregnant you had to have sex to get pregnant it was just common for her condition. It didn't bother her the less she had it the better and especially since she couldn't be pregnant.

"Sunday." Carson mumbled to herself as she unwrapped her sucker and took a deep breath trying to prepare herself for the needle.

Dr. Daniel Woo
Doctor Woo smiled as she misunderstood him, "I was referring to other kinds of cramps, such as leg, arm, back and neck variety. I know you were having problems with nosebleeds, have you had anymore since yesterday? You might consider going in to the shop to order some layered clothes and a new coat for this winter before people start placing their orders, that way we can get it in early, you know fall here can be brutal. We don't want you to catch Hypothermia again this winter." He stated in an almost father like manor although her week stay for that stint had granted him 24 hour access to run hundreds of different tests, it hadn't been good for her health and she was his patient after all.

"I'm going to run a physical, draw blood, and then give you your annual flu shot." he informed her taking out his stethoscope.

Claire & Rosy
"I saw a shark once, you know, when I was surfing in South Africa, big guy came right up to my board. Thought I was lunch, now that was scary, you... not so much Millhouse. Same dead eyes though, might want to work on that." Rosy threw out harshly before turning on heel "now if you'll excuse me I am going to take a shower," she spat before marching back inside the school, forgetting Aaron if that was even possible. She suddenly felt dirty, as if his slimmyness had rubbed off on her somehow. How could someone so amazing be related to... that. Rosy was normally easygoing but when it came to Millhouse, well he knew how to set her into a mood Claire didn't even bother trying to pull her out of.

Caiden, Lucy & Emilia
Caiden narrowed his eyes as he watched Rosy walk away. She was an irritating person that was for sure. It was best for everyone to just stay away less people would get hurt that way.

Lucy quickly hurried after the two girls not wanting to be alone near him. He just he was like a walking ball of tension that filled up the area. You never knew when he would explode, you just had to hope you weren't around for that.

Emilia frowned as she watched the exchange from her little tree in the corner. "You can't just shut everyone out forever." She stated as she started gathering her things. She'd seen a lot of situations like this with Caiden since she'd been at the school. She just couldn't take the anger she felt around him. She understood him better than he might believe.

Caiden said nothing in response as he turned around walking away his hands clenched at his sides as he walked as far as he could across the school grounds.

Arwen Samuels
(Birdy)
Arwen practically bounced as she exited the academy her Spanish textbook wrapped protectively in her arms as she went along her way, a dazzling smile thrown across her face. The young girl's cheeks were slightly pink as if she had ran all the way from class. Her eyes locking on someone before jogging at an alarming rate across the courtyard her braid flying behind her as she did so.

"Hi Emilia! Bye Emilia!" the 14-year-old waved ecstatically at her quiet roommate before continuing past her without even stopping to share her amazing news.

"Caiden! Hi, how are you today?" she asked out of breath as she finally caught up with the much taller boy. "I got a 98 on my Spanish test, can you believe it?!" the flighty girl chirped on ecstatically not noticing the worried glances a few people shot her way from their spots chilling on the grass. "You wouldn't have happened to have seen Chase by any chance? He's going to be so excited when he finds out, it's honestly his A+ after all that time he spent helping me study," Birdy gushed, although the last half of that statement was more opinion than fact. Unless providing snacks and throwing out random vocab words mixed with new prank ideas counted as leading the way to studystation. But, Birdy was over the moon which meant that many many many more compliments would be thrown out every which way to anyone in need of them, for at least the next 46 hours.

Birdy bent down to straighten her sock. "So I just got done talking to Sheila, you know the Head Cook, and she told me that she'd make my table her world famous tacos. She's real nice, her mom is the Colombian lady who helps out in the laundry room some times. The one who will fold your clothes for you if you ask really nicely." She blabbed on taking a deep breath before continuing to speak again. "Anyways, there's going to be way,way,way, too many tacos for just Chase and me. You should come sit with us, Chase is really awesome. Annie might come too," Birdy explained pointing at the quiet girl who was currently reading her Jane Austin. "Not Abbie or... him... maybe Melodie, but I like her," Birdy continued as if by stating that Melodie was someone to like meant that Caiden would surely like her as well. She didn't need to specify who him was.

Caiden Millhouse
Caiden let out a slight groan as he heard Birdy's voice. "I haven't seen Chase why would I see Chase?" He sighed letting his head fall back. He didn't understand why she wouldn't leave him alone. "What did I do to make you think this is okay?" He mumbled shaking his head as he came to a stop turning to look at her. It seemed like she always seemed to pop up like she was looking for him. He really didn't get how she seemed to want to be around him since he wasn't exactly nice but he would admit he wasn't as cold as he was to everyone else. He'd made her cry once and well he didn't like it so maybe just once he was nice but only that one time.

"No thanks." Caiden mumbled as he looked down at her. "I don't like them." He stated before taking his eyes off her. Why didn't she understand that she just needed to stay away. She didnt just hang around now she wanted more people around him.

He had no idea why she liked him and seemed less fond of Aaron. He noticed the looks they were getting and it irritated him but he was trying to stay as calm as possible but it was proving to be difficult especially as he heard a few things being said nearby. He turned around quickly his eye's narrowed. "Why don't you all just shut the fuck up and mind your own fucking business!"

Arwen Samuels
(Birdy)
Birdy gave Caiden a strange look as he tried to shoot her down. Her smile still in place as he pushed away at her comments. "Just thought you might have seen him is all," Birdy laughed pulling at her braid before looking at him as seriously as she was able to, "everyone has bad days, sad days, mad days, but you should have glad days too," she rhymed trying not to let the smile of amusement flicker up from her mock serious lips. She had half the nerve to inform him that everyone needed friends but thought better of it, he always was quite upset when she'd brought the topic up in the past.

"Everyone likes tacos, they're taco-rific... Except Carson, but she's a," Birdy leaned in as if she was telling him a huge secret, "vegetarian," her giggle was this time unable to be suppressed and bounced around the air around them as if she'd just heard the most amazing joke.

"So I'll bring you some later tonight after dinner then," She nodded assured that she would do just that whether he liked it or not. Making sure to express that he was in fact getting those tacos just not around a bunch of people. This is what sort of friends did. If she kept doing friendly things he would catch on she was sure of it.

Birdy literally jumped at his explosion of words and curses, noticing for the first time people staring at them. She seemed baffled as to why they had been staring and for a moment wondered if there was something on her face, wiping her mouth with her arm before looking back at Caiden a blush on her cheeks. "So six thirty, I'll bring it by your room!" She smiled ducking in to give him a small hug (whether he wanted it or not) and sailing off, a bounce in her step as she hopped/skipped back towards the building in search of Chase.
