ღ Valerie Nicholls ღ
I'd like to make myself believe
That planet earth turns slowly
Running a hand through her mess of dark curls - a look that most couldn't pull of, but it seemed to suit her perfectly - as the warm breeze played about it, Valerie continued down the sidewalk, which seemed to be growing more and more populated by the second. She quickly found her mind drifting, thinking about a song she'd been working on the night before; it was almost complete, it just needed a good ending. That was always the hardest part. She hummed the tune she had set to it softly, changing her position every now and then to squeeze past someone.
Stroking her finger along the feather charm she wore braided in her hair, an accessory she was rarely seen without, she decided to ditch the crowd and turned down a narrow alleyway that led to the beach without having to cross all of the busy streets. Continuing to hum softly, she kept towards the beach, her melodic voice easily drowned out by the rush of cars and conversations all around her.
It's hard to say that i'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems

And if I had something to say to you I'd whisper it softly
Kiss you on your rosy lips and never let you off me
The rusty, white door to his room opening with a long creak, Justin stepped out into the poorly lit, narrow hallway; his slender fingers wrapped around a crimson red apple he had just grabbed from the fridge. A crooked grin pulled at his lips as his ocean blue eyes peered down the long flight of stairs. Arching his neck in an attempt to see around the corner, he propped himself up on the crooked railing when he was sure no one was looking, the apple now held securely in his mouth. Easily holding his balance, the palms of his hands skimmed across the railing as he slid down. Sure, it was a short ride, but it sure as hell beat walking. Straightening out his slim-fitting jeans once he reached the bottom, he sunk his white teeth into the crisp apple before pulling it away. Pushing the hotel door open, followed by yet another loud creak, he stepped outside; a mix of odd smells taking him in as he did. A musty salt smell, which he concluded was obviously from the ocean located only a block or two away, and the unappetizing smell of all of the nearby restraunts being mixed into one. Running his slender fingers through his blonde hair, he started down the sandy sidewalk, his gaze drifting from building to building as he passed.
Shiver on your roof and see your face lit by starlight
Hold you through the night and watch that Colorado sunrise
