I Hear the squeak of that one loose board even before Kyle said anything. I look up in the direction of my customer and sure enough it was Miss Echo. I stand up with difficulty because I had gotten so comfortable and walk up to the fancypants that had entered my shop. Coming to close me down, I thought and luckily didn't say. "Hey guys. The records go by year," I informed Barbie and her minions. I didnt do much organizing because it is much more fun to look and and what you come across. I shake my hair to get my bangs to the right side again before I head up to the front counter and let them work. Those folks looked so out of place in my store and in this town for that matter. I tidied some things up, but then I lost my keys so ibhad to mess things back up just to find it. I did all this to waist some time before returning to Kyle.

teaches history at the local high school || thirty-two || university graduate || Callahan Dodds || male || the 'playful' one

Background
Cal was born and raised in Aberdeen, Scotland so he has quite a harsh accent. He lived there with his parents, Elaine and Hamish Dodds, and his older brother Ian. His life was ordinary there and he went to a local primary and high school when he was of age. During high school he became a bit rebellious and would start fires, put in shop windows and steal. He was in a gang and nobody would mess with them but Cal's parents saw that his grades were dropping because of his behaviour and so put him under house-arrest except for school. This helped him a lot, no matter how much he said he hated his parents back then. He's greatful that they had done that for him.
After graduating from high school he moved into Edinburgh where he majored in History at Edinburgh University.
Most schools already had history teachers and the ones that didn't weren't willing to take someone with such little experience as a teacher so he moved to America, to the little town of Corkstown when he was twenty-three. Their school welcomed him and he has taught there ever since.


Life in the town
Cal is known for being a fun teacher who tries to barely use the boring textbooks and instead show things with video clips on the internet or anything else to stop the kids from having to write all day.
Outside of school he is still fun and loves to crack jokes whenever possible. He's found working during the day and walking his dog, Marauder, after work before heading to the cafe for an hour or so.


Personality
Cal is playful and fun-loving whenever he can be. It takes a lot to put him down. Although it seems incredibly childish Cal will sometimes pull pranks on others or help the younger ones pull pranks on people. Even if he ever does get angry everyone knows he's still just a big kid.
What makes Cal a good teacher is his ability to listen to his students. He has often been the 'trusted teacher' that kids turn to for help if they don't have somebody at home to help them, or if home is the problem.
Cal loves to help others and makes sure that, in his classes, nobody is left out or made to feel unwelcome.

May grinned slightly when he smiled. When he outstretched his hand, she gladly took it, smiling. "You're a life-saver." She exaggerated but got herself up and had to once again push her glass up. She knew she should have worn contacts today. Shrugging off the thought with an oh well, she heard Bradley compliment her on her habit. May felt her cheeks grow warm, and really hoped that nobody noticed the pink tint that now decorated her face. "Well, then I guess tripping every now and then isn't so bad." She said a joking smile coming into view. She cleared her throat and rolled up the sleeves on her shirt, avoiding looking Bradley in the eyes. Don't read to much into it. You will end up leaving sooner or later, so don't make it hard! And they don't know you. If they did, exactly what would they think? May was thinking again, and it was bumming her mood. She shook her head and put on a bright smile instead. "Is that the cafe up there?" She asked pointing to the building up ahead that had a coffee cup painting on the window. She was tempted to go and see how the picture was painted. She had a lot of interest in art, all types. Ranging from sculptures to paintings and from paintings to graffiti. She remembered a time when her brother had shown her how to tag a wall on an abandoned building when she was younger. She almost laughed out loud when she remembered her experience, then thought she would look weird if she actually laughed. Instead, May calmly waited for one of her two companions to answer. However, as May realized after getting out of her thoughts, she was already walking over there.

Kyle watched Echo with slight interest. It wasn't everyday you saw a well-off, rich lady from out of town. He got tired of doing that, so he looked towards DJ, smiling slightly in amusement when she saw how irritated she looked. But he only guessed she was irritated from how she looked for her keys and her expression on her face. He could kind of read people like an open book, only after he talked with them a bit though. He drank some more of his coffee and stood up, stretching out his legs so there wouldn't be a chance for him to fall flat on his face. He put the acoustic's strap around his neck so he didn't have to hold it continuously. He looked up from the strings, which he was now strumming softly, and smiled at DJ. "Want me to check them out when they find what they are looking for?" He asked, wondering if DJ actually wanted any contact what-so-ever with Echo.

_-Lucas James Wayland-_

"Yes sir. I understand. I will find her, that's a given. Of course we will return soon, but she is quite stubborn, I'm not sure how early we can get back, but I will definitely let you know before hand. Yes. Good-bye sir." Luke hung up on his father with a dis-satisfied sigh. "Why did she pick now of all times to disappear?" He growled slightly, and lit a cigarette. "Sir, that will make the car smell,..well it will stink up the car." Luke sighed again, this time a tired one. "Yes, yes. I'm aware. But just let me have a moment." He said and got a nod from his driver. He really did not like riding back seat for four hours straight, and going by GPS he apparently had about two more to go before they arrived at the hotel they would be staying at. After that it was off to some place named Corkstown.
After smothering the cigarette in the ash tray, Luke flicked it out the window. The last thing he needed was a wild fire, cause by a Wayland in the middle of no-where so he had also dipped it into a old water-bottle, just for extra caution. Luke rested his head in his hand and sighed. He ended up drifting off into a light sleep.

Location: Echo Studios Corkstown
Love: None
Action: Texting, Paying
Tagged: Café people
Outfit: Here.

      When the owner, whatever her name may be, mentioned the yearly note it caused Echo to move over a bit. She pulled out two records- one from 1981 and one from 1976. A smile came onto her face as she saw the two albums. They would make perfect decorations in her studio/ club walls, and on certain nights she could bring them out and play them. It was an advantage to having a father who absolutely loved older music. He had the appropriate accessories for everything. Need a record player? He has it. Need a huge pair of headphones? Okay. It didn't matter- he had it, or could have it to you in days. Thinking about her father made Echo bite her lip a bit. As she walked up to pay she looked over the two people in front of her. They seemed to be friendly, but hid something.

. Shut up and listen to music .



I shake my head when Kyle offers to pay, but I drag him up to the front with me. I hardly knew him and that gave me the right to be extra pushy. When I reach the front desk I take a glance at the records she chose. Taking a tablet off the counter I scribble down the names of each. I liked to record all things that leave the store so I can try to find another at an auction or personal friend. When there isn't another available copy I usually don't even rent the records out. They are just out on display. "Forty," I told her her amount was before picking up a camera from behind me and snapping her picture with th record. It was an older camera, so the photo slid out and I shook it dry. When it developed I taped it on the wall behind me which was filled with many other pictures. I take pictures of all of customers because it adds a personal touch. "Sorry, as you can see I do that with al my customers," I explained. In the time it took me to do all that they probably thought I was insane and I guess I am.Oh well.

._Kyler Summers_.

Kyle didn't mind the fact that DJ dragged him up front, so he went along with it. He wasn't really giving his full attention, as he leaned forward against the counter. He had one arm resting flat, while his other propped his head up by the palm of his hand. Absentmindedly, Kyle started tapping a rhythm with his fingertips against his cheek. He watched as DJ scribbled away on her tablet, before blinking when she suddenly whipped out a camera, slightly surprised at the flash. He smiled a bit, thinking it was quite unique that she did that with all of her customers. He then turned his attention to the rest of the store. He had a pretty clear view of the layout, beside the part of the store that seemed hidden when walking through the front door. The area, he guessed, was for the employees so he let his eyes wonder up towards the ceiling.

|| 17 || Attends Uni. Wants to become a Roller coaster designer || Lindsay Mel Deri || Female! || Shy

Background : I grew up on a farm. I had learned how to take care of animals by the time I was ten and my parents gave me choirs, which taught me responsibility. It stormed one night when I was about thirteen and my father went out to close up the barn. His lantern fell and burnt down the barn,killing him. My mother sold the farm and took me and my two brothers to my grandmother's in Atlanta. There I took on a new set of children had got along very well with a few of them, others teasing me because I was what they called a "Tennesseean hick". Whatever. Short while after that. I packed up and left there. I headed out on my own. I came cross this town and knew that i wanted to stay here. So I found a place and now I am here!

Life in the town : It is great, She knows everyone names,but does not talk to them. Her favorite hangout spot is the coffee shop. She sits alone in the coffee shop and listens to the conversation,but never joins in. She lives a good life here in this small town.

Personality : " I am what some call distant. I am very quiet and "anti-social". I really don't like to talk as I'm afraid I'll say something wrong. I tend to go off in my dreamland when I'm not doing anything and sometimes lose attention in what's going on. I am very hard to talk sometimes, as I get a bit nervous when jumped at with things. You can tell when I'm nervous as I tend to look down and bite my thumb tip. I can be friendly to people once I get to know them. I can aslo be fun to be around. I tend to get a bit hyper sometimes, and quite spontaneous..Like a small child with a sugar rush. Despite my shyness, I can talk up a storm as long as I have something to say. Now, when I'm mad, I usually stalk off with no questions asked, just so I won't hurt anyone, because I hate doing that."
