Crush :: Ian Micheals

Thoughts :: "I need Bradley, now.
Swooning time :D"

Bright streams of light poked through Demetria's window as her mother yanked open the curtains of her window. She groaned, opening up her light blue eye, looking at her golden haired mother. She wiggled her toes as her mother tapped her foot, grinning as she saw the smile spread across Catherine's face. "Come on, hun. Breakfast is almost ready. Lucky for you, Mason already set the table. Be out in five." Her mother's accent, just like hers, was still incredibly thick. It reminded her of her home in Melbourne, where her sister was still living. She guessed that once the baby was born, they'd end up moving out to Corkstown. Erica couldn't take care of that baby on her own, especially since her husband was at work until supper time each day.
Sighing, she rolled out of bed. She pulled her hair back from her face, putting it up in a pony tail and walking out of her room. Caesar and Arkeda followed immediately, only to be disappointed that she wasn't taking them for a walk. She felt bad about that. They always got hyped up in the mornings, as they hadn't learned their walk time was later in the day. Silly dogs, but she loved them, and it helped that they didn't act aggressive towards Bradley. In fact, Caesar listened to him more then he listened to Mason or Jake.

Crush: Open
Location: Apartment
Age: Twenty one
Action: Waking up

Draiden rolled over on the bed, the screeching sound of the alarm clock was giving him a pounding headache. He practically smashed it to bits to shut it off and when he did he sighed and stared at it for a moment, his deep blue eyes dull with sleepiness. He had traveled the last few days and when he got to the apartment he started to unpack straight away. With little to show for, he had fallen asleep on the mattress in the middle of the floor. He rolled on his back and looked up to the ceiling with a sigh. "Time to get up." He mumbled to himself and sat up with a grunt. Mornings were never his thing but he had to go look for a job if he ever wanted to live in the place. He stretched and pushed off of the mattress and stood up, a little dizzy from the sudden movement. He walked into the plainly colored bathroom and was lucky to unpacked his toothbrush and tooth paste. After he finished brushing his teeth he ran a hand through his hair, got dressed, and left the apartment.

Delaney Jane Smith

. Shut up and listen to music .

I open my eyes to see my dad with a tray of waffles and milk. I grin from ear to ear and he sets the tray down on my bedside table and opens his arms to me. I jump out of bed to hug him and he tells me he loves me. "Love you too, Daddy. I have to get to work, though." He nods knowingly and exits my room. It only takes me thirty minutes to shower and dress. My outfit consisted of my Pink Floyd band tee tucked into peachy shorts. I wore black wedged shoes and a large floral bow in my short, texturized hair. Now that I have finished getting ready I enhale my waffles and gulp down my milk in under a minute. Finally I put on some orange-y lipstick and mascara and out the door I go.

The walk to the record store was short and refreshing. I took over the business from my father because it was all I have ever wanted. Music is my life and I wasn't about to give it up. When you reach the building on the square it seems like just a plain brick bulding, but inside is just rows and rows of records. You can't go in there looking for something specific, you have to just browse. The front of the store is completely filled with records, cds, and tapes. The walls are covered with posters, photographs, records, and signs. On the left is the front desk where you can always find help because we know music. In the back is a small lounge with a stage. On stage live music is sometimes played and in the lounge you can listen to your music.

. I'm all you could want and more .

I woke late in the morning after Delaney had already left for work. Mother and I both walked into the kitchen at the same time to find Richard making omelets. I hate omelets, but mom loves them. She runs up to him and kisses him like he is the greatest guy ever. "Gross, I'm eating out." I walk ack upstairs to my bedroom, so that I may shower and dress. The outfit I chose was super caual! That only took thirty minutes, so I took a little extra time on my makeup until I looked perfect. By the time I walked out the front door I was looking cute as an be and my hair was curled and looking uber stylish. The square was a short walk away, so I strutted to the cafe. Sitting alone in a booth sucks, but I'll survive. I ordered a coffee and bagel even though their cafe was nothing like the maid's cooking back home. Goodness this place sucks!

[Forgive the lack of muse. I am terrble at beginning posts.]

тακıиg α łøøκ ıи тħe мıяяøя!
Eye Color:
||A very warm caramel brown. This is her favourite attribute of hers. Her mother always told her that the phrase "The Eyes Are The Window To The Soul" was meant for her. Because her face can be as expressionless as it wants but her eyes will tell the story. If she's hurt, sad, angry or happy you'll know if you look into her eyes.||
Hair Color and Style:
||She has medium length brown hair. It's quite layered because she hates when it gets thick and goes all poofy on her. She usually wears it down. But sometimes puts it up. She straightens it or curls it when she feels like it. And leaves it natural most of the time though.||
Skin Tone:
||Pale but not white. She ain't no ghost! She as a bit of a tan with peachy undertones.||
Facial Features:
||Well preportioned. She has a heart-shaped face with dimples. So it gives the look of innocence and childness. Which perfectly describes her personality. Her nose is small and round. Her eyes framed with long, dark lashes.||
Body Build:
||Small and slight. Very petite, about 5'2". But she still has some muscle on her. It shows. She looks like an athlete.||
Clothing Style:
||Kinda scene, but not. Loves neon colors and black. Favourite colors.||

чøυ тħıиκ чøυ κиøω мe؟
Personality:
||Sweet and caring. She cares about anybody and everybody. Even if they don't deserve it. If she sees that somebodies upset she'll help them and comfort them immediatly. She blushes a lot around guys she likes. And is clumsy ALL the time. She trips over her own feet...Standing. She either laughs hysterically or giggles. And laughs at everything. Even the lamest things. Bad boys and rebels are not her type. Even though she does enjoy motorcycles. Even has one. She loves her motorcycle with all her heart. She falls in ove very easily and is shy sometimes and bold the next.||
History:
||Her mom and dad both have good, supporting jobs. So she's always been ok financially. But her parents are very strict about school and boyfriends and pretty much everything. They want her to be a docter or lawyer. When all she really wants to do is write stories and play her quitar. Which her parents don't approve of. She has a baby brother, Nick. She loves him with all her heart. They already have such a strong bond. Even though he's only one. His birthday just passed! Two of her grandparents are alive. The other two are deseased. One died from cancer and the other was in a car crash.||

Works at the local Cafe/Coffee shop || 20 || Finished high school and works || Alice Michelle Reed || Female || Speechless

Background : Lets see... she was born in Montana on June 2nd, 1992, to a loving mother and father. She was pretty spoiled, being the only child and having everything she ever wanted with the snap of her fingers. Lets just say she was a brat when she was younger. Well, when she was 8 her father died. He had committed suicide, they said he was drunk at that time. After that, her mother kind of lost it. She got into all sorts of drugs and talked really crazy, even abused her. Then finally someone called the child protection services and took her away from her mother. Her mom had to go to rehab 2 times and was finally put into a mental hospital.

Her mother has been in the mental hospital since Alice was only 18, Alice was thinking of dropping out of school but finished to be a high school graduate. Seeing what happened to her mom, she stays away from drugs and those kind of people. She does smoke, its a really bad habit she wants to get rid of. When she was taken away from her mother, she moved to this town to live with her uncle for a while, until she would get her own place. She settled into an apartment when she was 19, after working for her uncle at the Cafe/Coffee shop.

Life in the town : Lets start off at where she is currently living... she lives in a 1 bedroom, 1 bath apartment that is 2 blocks away from the high school and 1 block away from the local cafe/coffee shop. Her bedroom is splatter painted and its pretty messy, so she never invites anyone over. Her bathroom is small, the kitchen and living room is a fair size though. She works for her uncle, he owns the local cafe/coffee shop. Even though she is his niece, he doesn't pick favorites. She finished high school in Montana, so that is taken care of and that is about it. She works and lived in an apartment, she loves to go just walking around town though. At first, she hated this town, but she has grown to love it!

Personality : Alice is a kind of shy girl, but she isn't to kind to people who talk to her. She is a creative girl, she loves to just be herself and doesn't care what others think about her. She has good spirit and has a great sense of humor. She is only nice to the people she can really get along with, she doesn't like to call them friends, and she doesn't take kindly to strangers. She can be a little flirty at times, but its hardly noticeable, her flirting is more like teasing. She is more into what you could call the 'bad boys'. Other than that slight interest in 'bad boys' she doesn't have a type... She doesn't like to be the center of attention, so she mostly just keeps everything to herself.

Lets just say she kind of has trust issues. She decides if she trusts someone if she gets a good look at you, i guess you could say she judges a book by its cover. She hates rumors and promises and secrets. She doesn't like to keep secrets or promises and she would never have someone promise her something and don't tell her secrets, even though she is good at keeping them, she doesn't want to her it.

He owns the local Cafe/Coffee shop || 36 || finished high school and college and now he just works || John Kale Hall || Male || Confident

Background : Well, he was born in this town 36 years ago. His first job was being a teacher at the high school, a history teacher, and he was only 21 years old. He really liked kids and always wanted to be around them. His mom passed away from cancer, but his father is now living in an excellent nursery home. He was fired from being a teacher after accused of giving the students to good of grades. The second job he had was being a police officer, he just wanted to help the town from crimes. He wanted to be useful to the town. He retired at a young age and then opened up his own Cafe/Coffee shop. Opening up some jobs for kids was also something he considered a helpful decision.

Life in the town : There really isn't much to say... he owns the local cafe/coffee shop. He took care of his niece after his sister was sent to a mental hospital. He really just got her back on her feet, anything to help family. He really cares about Alice and wants to help her out as much as he can, but she won't let him. He loves his shop, more than he thought, its pretty fun to own your own shop.

Personality : He has a bright personality, he just looks more at the better things in life. You could say he looks at the cup as half full instead of half empty. He doesn't like people who are always in a bad mood and is one who will always be there for someone. He helps others build confidence and he is not selfish. He gives and gives and doesn't do anything more but give. He doesn't know what else to do. He is living a great life, but others out there don't even have shelter or food. He just can't help to think that there are people out there that need him. He really has a heart of gold and someone you can turn to.

Location: Echo Studios Corkstown
Love: None
Action: Opening Shop
Tagged: None
Outfit: Here.

The door to a beautiful car raised vertically to reveal one of the richest people in the country. As she stood her door continued to rise, revealing the little golden bull insignia. A Lambroghin Diablo in a metallic soft pink, such a beautiful car. Echo touched the door and it closed, locking and sealing itself from harm.

Her eyes looked through the gray of her nearly twelve hundred dollar sunglasses on the new studio. Today was her first day in the store, and the first time she had been out of her apartment for anything but food. This town was small compared to L.A. and New York. Recently Echo had set up twenty studios. There were four in L.A., two in San Diego, five in New York, two in Omaha, three in Miami, and four in Chicago. She was now standing in front of Echo Studio number twenty-one.

Due to her connections she had already prearranged the Studio being prepared the day she walked in. They hadn't lied. Upon entry the black tiled ground was flat for a short while. A white desk sat back a short way and a black leather pit set was in front of it for waiting customers. To the left of the desk was a set of ten narrow stairs lit with aqua side lights. Down the stairs was a stage presse dip against a wall with a full set of stage lights above it. In front of it were ten four seater round tables. Behind the tables was a full service bar and some restrooms. Beyond that was the actual Studio. Two recording rooms with full sound booths and recording equipment.

As she wandered through the miscellaneous recording rooms and production offices she noticed a door with a note. It read: Hey Sweetie. I thought of you while doing this. Remember that stage? The wall behind its one way glass- just for you. Sound tables are back there. ~ Dad. The note brought a smile to Echo's face and as she went back she was amazed at this.

It was only then that she added up the staff she would need. One secretary and one bartender would be sufficient. At least one other singer and a production specialist. Not to mention a janitor and bouncer. Maybe a bouncer wouldn't be needed. Still, that was five employees- four if she did cleaning.

Production Specialist at the Studio || 17 || Early Graduate || Jesse Shippe || Male  || Technical-Genuis

Background : Being born in Corkstwon was not the best thing for a child with ADD. He has a very high IQ and is amazing with anything technical. In seconds he can fix a car, build a machine, or perfect someone's voice. Both of his parents are supportive of him and are glad to see him working for Echo.

Life in the town : He is not too popular because he is a nerd type, and he usually stays away from people in general. Jesse is a good friend of the adults though because of his success in life.

Personality : He is a nerdy type with ADD. That explains it all.

{{ • Sorry for the short form. He just seems like such an undeveloped character. Sorry for double post.}

Unemployed || 19 1/2 || From Out Of Town || Marylin Amber Burnsworth || Female || 'Klutz'/'Curious'

Background : May is the daughter of a well-known business man. Her family runs the Burnsworth Bank in the major cities, so you could say she's way better off then most people. Her brother died when she was 15, and she took it hard. They were in a car accident together, and she has a scar running from her left side collar bone to the middle of her shoulder. Her head hit the car window hard so some of her memory is fuzzy. He had been her best friend so his death left her devastated and depressed. Being that May has never gone to a public school and had private home tutors all through ninth-grade until she attended a private high-school, she never had any real friends. May has never been close to her parents, always being their little perfect doll. She finally had enough when her father had arranged a marriage without her consent. Her mother never had a back-bone so everyone in her family pretty much does what-ever her father tells them to do. About a month ago she left their house in the city, leaving behind a note that said she would come back when 'her mind was cleared' and has been wondering around small towns since. Most likely though, her father is searching for her because if she married his chosen person, their family business could sky rocket.

Life in the town : May just 'wondered in' three days ago so she is still getting used to her surroundings and hasn't really talked to many people, only when she has had too. Even though she comes off as a quiet and isolated person she really wants to finally meet some friends and get a job at the coffee shop or studio. She recently bought a Eurasier puppy from a unfit owner and he is now her bestest friend. His name is Zoose

Personality : May was raised as a proper, rich, well-mannered lady, but truth-be-told she was always a tomboy around her brother. She absolutely loves the outdoors and anything athletic besides running. She is a really fun person to be around once you get to know her, and she is always looking on the bright-side of any situation. 'Mrs. Optimistic' as her brother called her. Her favorite things to do are paint/draw, dance, and photography. She is pretty much always doing on the these things 85% of the time. Despite being raised in utmost lady-like ways, May is also a bit of a klutz. She is the type of person who can trip over nothing if she isn't paying attention, and she often get's lost because she starts daydreaming and wondering into her own little world. Most of all, she is a really curious person. She will check out anything she deems interesting and has always wanted to travel around to visit haunted places. All in all May is a really caring, kind, and outgoing person. Though she is rich, she never comes off as it nor does she like people knowing about her family. She chooses to go by a different last name sometimes to stay under-the-radar.

applied for cinema staff || 19 || Attends Uni || Kyler Drave Summers || Male || Reliable

Background : Kyle has lived in Corkstown ever since he was born. His family has lived their for as long as he can remember in the exact same house. Kyle has always wanted to look forward to bigger things, so he moved into an apartment on his own. His family runs a pharmacy right outside the edge of town and he quit his part-time job there, being as he thought he needed to get away from all of his family ties. He would rather be a musician.

Life in the town : Kyle knows anyone and everyone from who's lived in Corkstown the longest to who just moved in yesterday. He has great memory so he could even tell you when and where someone may be. He is probably your top information guy even if he is a bit shy around a lot of company.

Personality : Kyle is a great guy if you take the time to know him. He can be shy around a large crowd but once you're his friends, he's a whole different person. He can be crazy and wild, to calm and laid-back depending on his mood. If you get him mad he could easily snap at you. If you irritate him odds are he'll walk away. He would rather avoid conflict and just keep to solving problems using words. He is kind of a mediator when it comes to problems like these, since he'll help just about anyone. He is a really sweet guy who adores kittens and puppies. He is kind and caring to anyone and anything. His favorite thing to do is the play the guitar and sing some songs in his free time. If possible, he wished to become and star and perform in front of a large crowd in a city far away from Corkstown.

(Hope Kyle's family status is okay >.< I can change it if you want ^^)

Picture without sunglasses
Just in Town || 24 || Graduated/In business elsewhere || Lucas James Wayland || Male || The 'Actor'

Background : Luke is the eldest son in the main Wayland family, therefore it has already been decided that he will take the family business once his father is no longer able to maintain it. He has been tutored in his home for his whole life up until he entered a very strict and appropriate college for his business. His family is in high social status and holds much power in the company and industry business in many places in the US. Because the Waylands and the Burnsworth are on good terms, Luke marrying Marylin, the eldest daughter of the Burnsworth family, would have benefits for both family's businesses. Everything his father says is absolute. His mother was never in a position to go against his father, but Luke always loved her more than anyone else in his family. She was really his only friend. But now, he only has the Wayland business in mind so he hasn't had a proper conversation with his mother in years.

Life in the town : He doesn't like any places where there is nothing he can gain from being in it. So since he has yet to arrived, Luke will probably find Corkstown a waste of his time and would rather have little to do with it. He has yet to actually be in Corkstown.

Personality : Because of Luke's upbringing, he has built up a business personality where he acts and thinks with the family business in top priority. He can easily lie to anyone and win them over in his favor. In his mind, he can 'use' people in which ever way will benefit him and the Wayland companies more. If you're of use to him, he will be nice and kind. If you have no meaning to be near him, then he can be a bit of a jerk and rude. Of course, him coming to Corkstown was something his father ordered. He is to search for May and bring her back to New York, where their marriage can become official. This, Luke sees as a great opportunity that can provide benefits for both families. However, under-neath all of this 'business' stuff Luke can be a pretty nice guy. He doesn't like hurting people but living with this other personality for so long, he can't really grow out of it.
