(I've heard a few songs that make me think of Mason and Mia but none that capture them perfectly. I think the two best ones have been Good Girl and Ask Me How I Know)
(No literally cause I missed class she's like'send him a voice recording of you coughing' and I'm like 'dude I'm not good at flirting but I don't honk that's how you do it' and somehow she's had more boyfriends than me?)
"Please take Jack off our hands. I'll literally pay you and provide food for him for a week if you take him," Sophia begged. She glanced towards the door, watching for Mia and Mason so they wouldn't overhear her conversation with Jace.
"I don't. She's my best friend. We fight a lot, but she's the only person that I can trust with anything. She has her own issues," Sophia began. Clearly her issues weren't as noticeable as Mason's, but she had them, "and I think making more friends or being in a relationship would really help her. I mean, if she really is crazy about Mason, I don't want to stand in her way, but I don't want to see her heart broken like that," she said. "I mean, even my first boyfriend was a bit of a jerk. He didn't take it easy when he dumped me and it really sucked. It wasn't until my next boyfriend that I realized not all guys were jerks about break ups. I just want Mia to have a nice guy before she deals with one of the jerks," she said with a sigh.
"I guess. I mean, Mia needs to learn to fall on her own, but she doesn't deserve it," she said. She just couldn't picture her cousin and Mason as a couple. "Plus, Jack would probably give her a hard time about it and she doesn't need that either."
***
Mia stepped back and barely stopped herself from making a face when he began smoking. "That's bad for you, ya know," she said, but she was sure he'd heard it plenty of times.
She leaned against the building and looked out over the road. "Dang. I was worried that would happen. It probably didn't help that you were staring at the waitress and then winked at Sophia," she said, crossing her arms over her chest. There was no aggression in her tone. She was simply stating facts.
"When did you even start smoking anyway?" she asked. It was a little off topic, but she was curious. She'd promised to never even touch one after her grandmother died of lung cancer after smoking her entire life.

Arlo was secretly relieved to hear that she didn't want to kiss him. Good. He wasn't the best kisser and didn't want to ruin their fake proposal. What made someone a good kisser? He could never figure that out.
"I'm not. I just couldn't be happier and I wanted the whole world to know," Arlo said. Recently engaged couples couldn't keep their hands off each other, right? He slung an arm around her waist as the waiter approached.
"Thank you so much, sir," Arlo said, reaching out to shake the waiter's hand. "This was the best day of my life and I'll definitely be recommending this place to my friends," he said, realizing he might be faking a little too much.
"Isn't that right, honey?" Arlo glanced, a smooth smile on his lips. This was all feeling more and more natural as the night went on. Plus, the hard part was over. They only had to keep Thai charade up long enough to get their food for free and leave.

((I'll have to try listening to those. o.o I have a list somewhere of songs that fit my characters and then songs that fit their relationships with my other characters. XD))
((Oh my gosh. XD That is how you do it, I think. Somehow. People are weird.))
"I don't even want the money and the food. I just want Jack. All to myself." Well, that may have sounded weird, but Jace wasn't lying. He really liked Jack enough that he would totally give him a bedroom at his place and they could just hangout and do fun stuff.
"A good guy before the jerks... good idea. However, that means you'd need to draw her away from Drake." Jace explained, wondering how that would even work. "You could get Mason back together with Adriane. He'll have such a one track mind after that, he probably won't even remember Mia's name." It was the hard truth about Mason's relationship with Adriane. He seemed to just kick everything else out of his mind and wholeheartedly focus on him. "Either way, I think a jerk is going to hurt, even if she has previous dating experiences with good guys."
Well, Jace wasn't being at all helpful.
"Maybe telling Jack is the answer to all of our problems. Can he tell her she's not allowed to date Mason?" Jace wasn't sure how much power Jack held over Mia, although he assumed that the answer to his question would be a resonating no. It would probably make Mia rebel more.
--
"I know it is." Mason had heard it a hundred times before and he had stopped caring after the first twenty. It was a comforting thing now, and a good way to get a break.
He laughed. "I'm sorry, but did you see that waitress? She was gorgeous, and totally into me." Mason couldn't even keep himself loyal to one girl for even one dinner, even if it was just a fake dinner at that. Maybe that made him a sick human being, but he had stopped caring. "Well, they're talking now."
Mason sighed. "I don't know. I can't really remember. Thirteen? Fourteen? Maybe fifteen? I don't know, whenever I first met Adriane. That's when it became a habit." He explained. "I'd had a few here and there before that when my mom was like 'Here, Mason! Try this! It'll be fun.' And a lot of secondhand smoke." That was probably more of an explanation than Mia needed, but it had been said and Mason couldn't take it back.

"Aright, noted. I wasn't planning on getting on either one of your bad sides and especially not now." From the sounds of it, Drake could quite possibly die if he offended them enough and Drake was not about to go about doing that. He was not interested in having two girls wanting his death. He had seen enough sitcoms of crazy exes that he knew what girls were capable of. "Curly blonde hair and baby blue eyes reminds me of, well, a baby." All Drake could think of now was a totally unattractive, scrawny guy that for some reason, was reminding him of Michael Cera doing finger guns in a very awkward, not attractive position. Drake was now bothered. "So personality is better than looks? What if you have two guys and one has a really good personality, but is ugly, and the other guy has almost the same personality but is really hot BUT hot personality dude also has one really bad trait? Who would you choose?" "I'm cool, and I am your friend." Drake replied. He would have dramatically asked Kris if she didn't consider him a friend, but he was honestly too excited to leave. And then he did finger guns at Jordan, because he was Drake and that was how he rolled. "You just wait, I will reach Friendship Level 10." And with that, he took the glasses from Kris and put them on. He totally pulled them off as he led the way out of the restaurant, holding the door open for the others. {Kim Possible was the BEST. I'm probably going to watch Ben 10 though. Not the reboot, though. Definitely not the reboot ...Drake, what on earth goes on in your head} Kris grinned. "Good, good." She probably wouldn't do anything to him considering he was her friend, but it was always nice to be found intimidating. She liked being underestimated too, of course, but really, both were good. It was nice to surprise people. "Wow." She had very little doubt that he was thinking something weird. "Honestly, chances are that I'm going to choose neither and live a perfectly single life. That's most likely incredibly shallow of me, but I'm nothing if not honest." She shrugged. It was a fault of hers that she could be shallow and she acknowledged it. She wanted to date someone attractive with a good enough personality. That was her plan, at any rate. She sighed dramatically and laughed at Drake's own dramatics. This was why they were friends. The banter was fun, and maybe Kris would have had a crush on him once upon a time. As it was, he was a bit too out there for her. She liked his personality and his looks weren't half bad, but she had never seen him in any sort of romantic light before. "You say you're cool, but are you really?" |

(They're both good songs and also country XD I used to sing good girl all the time with my little friend who's like 13 now and she seems so grown up)
(She's like 'or ask him out in a group chat' and it makes no sense)
"Cool. You can have Jack for a week. When do you want him?" She asked, sure she'd have no problem sending Jack over to Jace's house. "Will your Dad mind a random twenty year old dude crashing in one of your spare rooms?"
"I know she'll still get hurt eventually, but I think it'd be better for her to see what a nice guy is like first," she said, frowning a bit at the mention of Adriane. "Mia would hate me forever if I encouraged the two of them to get back together. It seems like she wants Mason in her life whether it's romantically or not and she wouldn't be able to handle Adriane in her life,"
Sophia said, tapping her fingertips on the table.
"He can, but she wouldn't listen. She'd just tell him that she's an adult and go find Mason and be even more willing to be in a relationship with him. Ugh," she grumbled. This was unfair. She wasn't Mia's mom. She wasn't even Mia's sibling. Though she knew Jack wanted Mia safe and happy just as much as she did. That's how they all felt about each other.
***
"I did see her, Mason. I was there," she said with a sigh. "I mean, do you really want to get together with some random girl that you don't even know her name?" she asked. She couldn't imagine doing that. It just didn't seem right. "I mean, there's plenty of girls. Why not pick one that you really have something in common with and build a relationship?" she asked. "I mean, think about it, Mason. There's plenty of girls that would love to be with you and I'd give anything to have a nice, romantic relationship with a guy that loved me back."
"That doesn't sound fun," Mia said. She didn't know much about Mason's past or his family, but it didn't sound like it was the healthiest. Adriane being around definitely didn't help with that. "Have you tried quitting?" she asked, slightly curious. Plus, she almost winced at the thought of how much he spent on his little habit. She worked at a store and knew cigarettes weren't cheap.

"Yeah, its smart if you don't hurt us," Jordan said with a cheery smile. She led the way out to her car and unlocked the door before tossing the keys over to Kris.
"Guys are stupid anyway. Who needs guys when you have friends?" Jordan asked. She hadn't paid much attention to Drake's question. After all, it wasn't a math problem. It was a guy ratjng scale.
"And Kyle is not a baby. He's the quarterback of our school's football team," Jordan said. She glanced at Kris. "Can I have my phone to show Drake a picture?" she asked, the idea not occurring to her that it'd be a bad idea. She'd see all the texts and calls from Kyle and get all bummed out again. Or tempted to call him back and end up getting in an argument with him in front of Drake and Kris.
"Alright, let's head out to this laser maze," she said, ducking into the passenger seat and putting her feet up on the dashboard. What? It was her car. She could do what she wanted. "Just don't hit anything, Kris."

{¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I've never dated and middle school absolutely does not count so I have no idea how effective that is. It doesn't sound effective but what do I know}
"You're so cheesy," Keilana giggled, poking him in the side but allowing him to wrap an arm around her. She felt uncomfortable like this. She was used to hanging all over her friends and whatnot, but she had been friends with those people for months and years. Arlo was new. She could probably get used to being close to him if they continued to be friends, but it was weird right now.
"Definitely one of the best days of my life," she agreed. "So far. I think wedding night might be a bit better, though. Don't you?" She smiled teasingly. This was not the best day of her life. The best day of her life probably had to do with her hometown and her friends there. This was a fun experience though, so it was probably somewhere up there. At the moment, it was mostly awkward despite how much fun it was.
"Your patronage is appreciated," the waiter told them. "Is there anything else you wish to have? We'd be happy to give you an extra celebratory dessert." That sounded fake to Keilana, but she didn't say that. She looked at Arlo, wondering if there was anything else he might have wanted.

)I know absolutely nothing about guys or dating so...........)
"That's what you love about me," Arlo said. Most of the other diners had turned back to their food and conversation, leaving the two of them alone with the waiter. He was the one they had to be careful with in case he was scrutinizing them.
"Ah, yes, our wedding will be lovely. My sister's been dying to meet you," he said with a grin. "She was excited when I told her about my plans today." After talking to Keilana, he turned to the waiter.
"No thank you. I'm stuffed. Everything here was wonderful though," he said. He then stood there a bit awkwardly. We're the just supposed to leave now? It felt weird to leave a restaurant without paying, but he also wanted to get back to normal. Not hanging on Keilana and telling her how amazing she was. It just didn't feel right with a girl he barely knew.
Although he was glad to be with her instead of, like, Chase's crazy ex or something. That girl was weird.

((I'm with Aurora. XD I've only ever dated my current boyfriend and honestly, we flirted with insults.))
((Ooh, Ben 10 is cool. o.e They rebooted it?
Honestly, I have to go into a very special mindset to be able to roleplay or write out Drake just because of how strange his thoughts are. And his behaviors. And... everything.))
Drake shrugged to the whole conversation on guys. "Well, what do I know?" He replied and continued on with a cheery smile because why the heck not? Nothing got this guy in the dumps... for the most part. "But, Kris, why would you want to be alone? That's so boring. I can hook you up with someone." He offered. Drake did know plenty of single guys that he, personally, thought were attractive.
"Yes, let me see this attractive Kyle with the bad personality." He laughed. "Does that make him a bad boy? Because isn't that the definition of bad boy? 'Attractive with really bad morals'?" And from Drake's experience, girls seemed to fall for the bad boys no matter what. It was strange. What was so attractive about a guy on a motorcycle with nice hair and no difference between right and wro-- .... Okay, now Drake was also attracted to this metaphorical bad boy.
"Girl, please." Drake did a sassy little finger waggle at Kris. "Am I cool? Girl, I am the definition of cool. I am so cool, I caused the first Ice Age." He laughed and hopped into the backseat of Jordan's car, looking around in Kris's sunglasses that he assumed made him look even cooler. "Laser maze! Laser maze!" He started chanting quietly to himself in the backseat, excited to give this a try.

"Bring him over whenever. The rooms are always ready." Jace replied. He was truly excited for this. "Please, my dad won't even notice. There's always people staying over in our spare bedrooms."
"But what nice guy? I'm sorry, but I don't think this school is heavy on the nice guys." Although now that Jace thought about it, Mason seemed to be the only truly bad guy, and he wasn't even technically in school anymore. "She doesn't have to know that you were involved in Mason getting back with Adriane. I mean, what other options are there?" To Jace, it seemed to be the best bet.
"And Mason would love that..." Jace grumbled. He was a sucker for girls that got into fights with their authority figures -- hence the strong attraction to Adriane all those years. Or, at least, that's why Jace thought he had always been so into Adriane. Honestly, it had always surprised him given how Mason had been before her.
--
"It's better if I don't know her name. She won't talk to me after that first night." Mason replied, taking another puff of his cigarette while Mia continued to speak. "Why are you giving me this stupid rundown? I don't want a relationship. Too much work, too much... expectations. I would much rather have that," he nodded towards the waitress, which they could see through the windows in front of the restaurant, "for one night. And then go back to not having to worry about anyone else. I have too much on my plate to be dating."
Mason snorted. "Of course not. Why would I? Smoking is fun." He smirked at her. In all truth, he spent very little on the cigarettes. He usually sent Drake to get them for him and being Drake, and with people knowing about Drake's childhood where they went, they usually gave them to him for free or close to it. "Along with drinking and a few other things I'll spare you the details of. Look, it's too late for me. But I've kept Drake safe from doing any of that stuff." He didn't mention that Mason kept Drake from doing that stuff because Drake couldn't.

Zeke Knight | Male | 18/Senior | Lost Dreams
At about 5'10" with muscular shoulders and tan skin, Zeke looks a lot more threatening than he really is. His hair is mainly black, although about an inch of the tips of his hair are a bright blue color, matching the blue of his eyes. Zeke's clothing style is mainly jeans, boots, and graphic t-shirts of some type. Zeke is a quiet guy. An extremely quiet guy. He very rarely talks, preferring to just nod or shake his head in response to questions. He's a bit shy and just seems to have a hard time communicating with others. Even someone he knows for a long time would have a hard time getting a ton out of him.
Zia is his younger sister | None
Zia Knight | Female | 17/Junior | Lost Dreams
Standing at about 5'4", this smaller girl has a fairly typical frame -- not too muscular, not too petite, just right in the middle. Similar to her older brother in style, Zia's hair is black with red and blue highlights scattered throughout it. She keeps her hair straightened and with bangs that fall just in front of her blue eyes. She has a ton of piercings -- snakebites, a nose ring, and even one of her eyebrow. On top of this, Zia has a small tattoo of a pair of wings on her back, which is a tattoo that she deeply regrets and hates to think about. Zia's clothes are all black or dark purple in color, but vary in style from skirts to shorts and pants, and blouses to band t-shirts, and boots to Converses. Because of her appearance, Zia isn't usually approached, which means that her social skills are a little awkward. Still, she will usually show up to parties and other social things, if only to make fun of the people involved. If someone took the time to overlook her somewhat scary appearance, they would find that she's actually kind of funny and a fairly nice person.
Zeke is her brother | None

(Yeah no problem)
Rosa normally ate her lunch alone. In fact, there was even a picnic table somewhere on the school grounds that she normally claimed for herself, away from the cafeteria where the other students would eat. Today she was making her way to that very table, lunch bag in hand. A peanut butter and nutella sandwich awaited her, and she had been looking forward to eating it all day.
