And Katie was right, normally Beau would avoid people that weren't in his group as much as possible. But, he also knew that none of his friends were here, so it really didn't matter to him. "Yeah, sure." He said, flashing her a smile and moving back to his own locker, "Don't look so surprised." Beau laughed, moving to strategically grab some books from his locker and stuff them in his backpack.

"S-sorry." She snapped back into reality and started arranging her backpack. "C-Congratulations on your win the other day by the way" She quickly said, referring to the home game that had been played the day before (I assume he's in a sport since he's a jock XD can't remember which though if he is) She dropped her sketchpad, which fell open on a page with a sketch of an empty stage. It was good, but had a strange feeling of loneliness.

yeah sorry I forgot to mention that he plays soccer) "Thanks." Beau chuckled, seeming amused by Katie's nervousness. He moved to kneel down, grabbing the sketchpad, "You draw?" He said, not really expecting an answer, "This is good." He murmured, mostly to himself, straightening up. Beau studied the drawing for a few more moments before offering it back to Katie, "Why a stage?"

Katie blushed in embarrassment at his comment on her sketch. "Just a pastime..." she mumbled, taking it back quickly. "I want to be an actress but..." she trailed off. She was going to say "too much of coward" but caught herself. She shoved it into her backpack, looking down into it, mainly to avoid eye contact.

Beau adjusted the straps of his backpack, studying Katie's face with intense brown eyes. He gave her a little shrug, "Why not." Beau said, watching her curiously. "Sorry, what's your name again?" He asked, tilting his head.

Katie shifted nervously under his intense gaze. When he asked her for her name, she glanced up, her sea green eyes meeting his brown ones for a split second before looking away slightly. "Katie...Katie Meeks." She said softly.

"Nice to-" Beau was interrupted by someone yelling his name, it being one of his friends. He looked startled, turning around to find Jack standing in the hallway. Beau cleared his throat, stepping away from Katie, "Oh, hey." Beau said with a forced chuckle. Jack came up, slinging his arm around Beau's shoulder. Jack glanced over at Katie, his eyebrows crinkling a bit in confusion. "Whatcha doin?" Jack asked Beau, sounding slightly suspicious. "Nothing." Beau said dismissively, not looking at Katie anymore, "Just getting some stuff out of my locker."

Katie had turned and closed her locker, making sure it didn't jam this time, before slinging her backpack over her shoulder and turned to head to her first class, English. She didn't look at him anymore.

"What were you doing talking to her?" Jack snorted, his arm still slung around Beau's shoulders. "I wasn't." He lied, "Let's just got to class, yeah?" Beau said. Jack shrugged, dropping the subject, "Yeah, sure."

Katie couldn't help but think about her conversation just now. This is good. She remembered his comment on her sketch and blushed a tiny bit. That was the first compliment she had ever gotten on her drawings. Well besides from her parents. She smiled a little. She wondered why he seemed interested in her enough to ask for her name. Usually a jock wouldn't be caught dead with her. They may not know her, but usually outcasts are avoided, even without trying to know them. She shrugged it off and walked into her class, ready for another day.
(I'm wondering if they should be reading Romeo and Juliet and she starts to read that famous monologue and he overheard or something XD)

go for it!!!) Beau glanced back at Katie for a brief second before heading to class with Jack, just chatting it up with them as they walked. Beau kept thinking back to Katie though, his eyebrows furrowing every time he did.

Katie was scribbling down notes in her class when the teacher announced it was time to continue reading Romeo and Juliet, the class book. When she assigned people to read certain characters, Latie raised her hand to read for Juliet. She loved reading scripts. When it was her time to read she began to recite the monologue from when Juliet learned Romeo was banished after killing her cousin Tybalt. "Shall I speak ill of him that is my husband? Ah, poor my lord, what tongue shall smooth thy name When I, thy three-hours wife, have mangled it? But wherefore, villain, didst thou kill my cousin? That villain cousin would have killed my husband. Back, foolish tears, back to your native spring! Your tributary drops belong to woe, Which you, mistaking, offer up to joy. My husband lives, that Tybalt would have slain; And Tybalt's dead, that would have slain my husband. All this is comfort; wherefore weep I then? Some word there was, worser than Tybalt's death, That murd'red me. I would forget it fain; But O, it presses to my memory Like damnèd guilty deeds to sinners' minds! 'Tybalt is dead, and Romeo--banishèd!' That 'banishèd,' that one word 'banished"
She was quite good.

At that point Beau had already ditched his own classroom, now wandering through the halls. He did this a lot; he was intelligent, but he just didn't show up to class, riding on the fact he could potentially get a soccer scholarship. Beau had his hands shoved into his pockets as he walked around aimlessly, pausing when he heard a familiar voice. He peeked around the corner and into a classroom, his eye's immediately focusing on Katie. Beau didn't even realize he was staring, but he watched Katie throughout the whole monologue, his eyes practically trained on her in the least creepiest way possible. Now Beau could see why Katie wanted to be an actress - she got really into the part, unlike anyone there. There was no doubt that she was talented.

("Least creepiest way possible"= Still creepy XD)
Katie finished the monologue and sat down, smiling a little. It was cute. The teacher smiled at her and said "Very good Ms. Meeks." and then they continued the story. Katie wrote notes during the lesson. She had heard their was going to be a surprise quiz, and they were usually allowed to use notes. Sure enough, right when they finished the chapter. "Time to see how much you all have been paying attention. It's time for a quiz" Katie smiled with satisfaction, while most of the rest of the class seemed to panic.

true ) Beau had left when she finished, a little frown on his face, which he did whenever he was thinking. After a while of walking around he headed back to class, arriving a few minutes after the bell had rung. He kept thinking back to Katie - there was just something about her that intrigued him, and he couldn't quite place it yet.

(Suddenly lunch time! XD)
Katie was sitting at a table in the back of the cafeteria, her head was resting on top of her crossed arms, her eyes closed. She was quite tired, she had been up late studying for a history quiz that was the next day, so she was catching a quick nap during lunch. She wasn't that hungry anyway.

Beau headed into the lunchroom with his friends, smelling vaguely of smoke. They were all laughing and making a lot of noise, as per usual. Beau had his arm wrapped around a petite, blonde girl, just holding her close for the sake of it, a small smirk on his face

Katie peeked one eye open as the lunch room grew noisier with their entrance. She saw what it was then sighed, closing her eyes again, but not before putting in an earbud.

hmm I'm tryin to think of a way to get them together maybe they could both get detention somehow?) Beau usually had a new girl in his arms every few days - he had a reputation to keep up. He separated to go and grab himself some lunch, looking as arrogant as ever with a smirk on his face.

Katie sat in her seat in an empty classroom and let out a sigh. She had accidently fallen asleep in science, and her teacher gave her detention. She pulled out her sketchbook and began to sketch a bird.

Beau had just been late so many times that'd he gotten a detention, and of course he was late to the detention itself. He headed inside the classroom, not being quiet at all about it, practically slamming the door. It wasn't because he wanted attention, it was mainly because he was just a loud person. Everywhere he went he brought noise with him.

Katie jumped in surprise at the slam of the door. Of course, there was no teacher to scold him. The teacher who was supposed to never really actually came to watch them. It wasn't really much of a detention, but you still had to stay late. She blinked and looked at Beau in surprise, before looking back down at her sketch only to see that when she had jumped she made a line where she didn't want to with her pencil. She made a sigh and began to erase it.

Beau glanced over at Katie, looking at her for a few seconds before heading over and sitting in the teachers chair where it was nice and plush. He let out a satisfied sigh, leaning his head back and closing his eyes. He settled his hands on his stomach, slouching down in the chair to get cozy.

Katie glanced up at Beau with an unimpressed look on her face. "If he comes in, he'll get mad at you..." She said softly.
(Should he have a "I can get any girl I want" kind of arrogance? Or some other kind?)

yeah that's what I was thinkin!! mixed in w some 'acts like he's too good for people') Beau cracked one eye open, shrugging, "So?" He said, giving his lips a little smack, "I'm already in detention, what does it matter?"

Post by chipster321 on Mar 12, 2017 22:54:47 GMT -5
Katie shrugged "Because he'll start yelling and his voice is shrill. I'll end up hearing it too." She stated, finishing erasing.

"Whatever." Beau shrugged, "He won't be coming in here for a while, anyways. That old fart can barely even see." He said, opening his eyes to look directly at Katie. "There's a lot of stuff I could do and he'd never notice." Beau smirked.

Katie just let out a "Hmm." She wasn't really listening to him anymore, and didn't hear his last comment, which might have been a good thing.
(Wonder how many times he's done "Other things" in detention before XD)
