Sherlock let Danny go one way and decided to pick another aisle that depicted EDM music and vinyl. He looked around, hoping to see Mikel's face in the small group standing near a small case full of cds. A blonde headed man made his heart stop, but when he turned around, Sherlock could feel the sorrow hit his heart. It wasn't Mikel. Those big glasses weren't Mikel, that peachfuzz wasn't Mikel. He sighed, moved over to the next aisle and continued to look around.
Donovan entered the store with a sigh. He needed to get some more music, especially now that dear Mikel would be staying. What kind of music would Mikel enjoy, he wondered? He remembered the man loved to listen to rock and edm when they were in high school. Was he still into that music?

Danny goes through the rows desperately but saw no sign of Mikel. He was about to go look for Sherlock when he walked right into Donovan. He takes a few steps back to say sorry until he realized who it was. "You!"
(Cause they met at the club right?)

Donovan, who was glancing down at a CD labeled, "halsey", let out a puff of air when someone collided into his side. When he looked up to tell the person he was sorry, he noticed who it was. Inside, he was fuming, who did this guy think he is? But instead, he feigned innocence and gave the man in front of him a concerned glance, eyebrow raised. "Um, I'm sorry? Me? Do I know you?" He made it last a moment before he gasped, "Ahh! You're Mikel's little pet, aren't you? His new boyfriend? Nice to see you again." He made the last statement sound stale, "What are you doing here?"
(yeah they met at the club x3)

"I'm looking for Mikel." Danny said crossing his arms over his chest. He looked Donovan up and down and narrowed his eyes. "Have seen him lately?" There was something about Donovan that rubbed him the wrong way. He was not Mikel's pet!

(hey there! sorry i haven't replied. i DID reply, but it deleted it and i was too lazy to type another one. so here's this now!)
Donovan shrugged, placing his hands in his jacket pockets. "You sure he didn't just leave? Mikel's known for just...wandering about the campus, looking for something interesting." He smirked and started to walk around Danny, heading in the direction of another CD that caught his eye. He wondered if Mikel would like sushi tomorrow for supper? He should stop by the grocery store on the way back. "Have fun, though. He'll show up eventually." He almost laughed. Of course Mikel wouldn't show up. He hoped Mikel was finishing up his supper. He'd have to do something to persuade him to eat if he hadn't. And Donovan was honestly too tired to deal with that right now.

Danny who was getting annoyed stalks over to him. "You know something." He growled glaring at the back of Donovan's head. "I don't know what your deal is but Mikel is my boyfriend and you are going to have to get over it! Now tell me what you now!"

Donovan frowned and stepped up to Danny, "Oh, is he? You're not doing a good job of keeping an eye on him, then," He huffed, trying to tame his anger, "I'm not telling you anything. Mainly, because I don't know anything. I don't know you, okay? And I don't want to know you." He turned his back, the little pet starting to get on his nerves. If it wasn't for everyone around, he was sure he'd make a swift punch towards the man behind him. Danny couldn't take care of Mikel like he could. Donovan could do so much better...so much better. At least he kept a close eye on Mikel.
Sherlock, who had looked around for a little while and had only found a few vinyls of Katy Perry and cringed internally, started heading back to where he could see Danny's silhouette. Unfortunately, that also allowed him to catch a glimpse of the man Danny was standing beside. He took in the dark brown short hair, the tanned skin, the muscles that he could pick him up in under a second. Those deep forest green eyes. Sherlock's heart skipped, his breath caught in his throat. He could feel the burning memories tear into his skull once again, and his hatred, yet once unwilling dedication, to this man before him came tumbling back up into his chest, burning him. "D...Donovan?" He was only able to get out a small muttered, blue eyes wide and shocked. He was sure his face was reddening. This man...why was he here?

"You know him?" Danny asked whipping his neck towards Sherlock. He looked between Donovan and Sherlock and narrowed his eyes. If Sherlock knew Donovan then he must know Mikel right?

"Of course I know him..." Sherlock muttered, the shock finally stumbling more into anger, as he narrowed his eyes and moved towards the two, "He's an old friend of mine and Mikel's. A very old...friend." His eyes rest on Donovan's collection of CD's in his hand. "What are you doing with those? I didn't know you liked Halsey."
"Heh, haven't seen you in a while, Locke. Nice to see you again." Donovan smirked, trying his best to hide the collection of CD's behind his back, "It's been a while, my music tastes change."
"Mikel likes Halsey."
"Does he? Haven't seen him in a while, either. Well, I saw him out at the club the other night, with his, um, boyfriend here. But we didn't get much time to talk." He gave a small laugh, "So you can't find him? Where do you think he went? Wandering around for more excitement like usual, maybe?"

Steffan Ebersold - a 20 year old male with very pale skin, some faint freckles, and deep green eyes. His dusty brown hair is short and usually combed back in a sort of messy and natural way while still looking well groomed. He has several issues with his spine and bones that he was born with that make it very hard for him to walk or even stand up fully straight, he does as much as he can but usually resorts to staying in a wheelchair. He's bold, soft-spoken most of the time but can raise his voice almost startlingly to get people's attention, and has an authorative and intimidating way of speaking. He's hard and uncompromising when he needs to be but not emotionless or stoic, and friendly enough in social settings. He doesn't like being helped, not wanting to rely on anyone and has trouble getting close to people for that reason. His long conversation and ramblings into more intellectual fields can sometimes bore other people. Major: Archeology/History. Loves open spaces, fresh air, being out in nature or in a cozy quiet room to think.
(That would be great, do you want to start off?)

(sure! thanks for joining btw) Oakley was just leaving her Precalculas class, the stress of the new exam next week continuing to plague her mind. She'd have to study a lot, especially since math wasn't really her strong suit. She sighed, readjusting the weight of her backpack on her shoulder. The three books inside were already starting to feel heavy. She had her next class, World History, in about thirty minutes. Maybe she'd have time to stop by and get food?

(no problem, Steffan's a new character from a new story I'm working on, I really wanted to try him out in RP.)
Steffan was studying at one of the tables outside the World History class in the hallway, writing down exam prep notes before class started, always one to be a week early in preparing. He had his geography textbook open and he flipped through the pages making note of all the important parts. He had a bag of sunflower seeds on the table next to him to snack on. He'd left his headphones in by accident even though he'd turned off the music a while ago to focus better.

) "He's out buying me gifts cause he adores me!" Danny growled taking a step forward. He wasn't sure why but he felt angry for some reason. Something was going on and he wanted to know what. Danny looked at the CDS and noticed Shawn Mendez and a few other artists. He remembered singing their songs to Mikel one night.

(i really like Steffan!)
Oakley had just resorted to getting a small bag of chips out of the school's vending machine, not hungry enough to walk all the way across campus to the little cafe. Instead, she continued to walk down the hallway, chips and a bottle of water in her hands, making her way to World History. She noticed someone from her class--she believed his name was Steffan--outside at one of the tables. She wasn't usually one to initiate socially, but he was the only one around, and as far as she'd seen, he wasn't unfriendly. So, she walked over and gave a smile. "Uh, hey Steffan." She said, slightly nervous, "Mind if I sit here?"
---
Sherlock stepped forward, not wanting Danny and Donovan to get into a fight here. He glared at Donovan, the tension settling between the three of them like ice. "I don't know what your problem is, Donovan, but I think you should leave us alone."
"Leave you alone? This one here started it!" He growled at Sherlock, pointing towards Danny. Sherlock reached forward and set his hand on Donovan's shoulder, almost ready to dig his nails into the man's skin. His skin still felt the same, warm underneath his shirt. Sherlock remembered the way he'd stay close to Donovan so often, many years ago, so much that the memory of Donovan's scent and warmth still lingered. But that was a long time ago. And Sherlock regretted all of it. He was sure Mikel regretted it too, but Mikel didn't remember those times. Sherlock was ready to tell Mikel anytime he was ready, but...it wasn't something Sherlock wanted to bring up. (i think i'm going to have it to where sherlock, mikel, and donovan were all friends, and donovan treated them badly. something happened, and mikel got into an accident, and forgot his memories of being sherlock and donovan's friends, so that's why he says sherlock is his roommate, even though sherlock made it so they could be roommates on purpose bc he wanted to keep an eye on Mikel. Mikel remembers Donovan, but just through the last year of high school, after the incident. Sherlock had already graduated by then.)
"I know you have information on Mikel's whereabouts. I can see it in your eyes, and the way you hide away from us." He growled, "and I will find out what it is. So you better watch yourself." He let Donovan's shoulder go.
--
Mikel had fallen asleep against the side of his new bed. He grumbled, still holding the empty bowl of soup in his hands. He was having a nightmare of the day before, of Donovan and how he was sure Danny missed him. He made whimpering sounds in his sleep.
One of Donovan's friends, Victoria, walked into Donovan's house. She had a bag of medicine she'd brought back from the grocery store. She used to be Donovan's roommate, but things changed. She got a boyfriend, and Donovan became interested in this "new boy", so she left. But that didn't stop the fact she should still be helping her friend when she could. Donovan was still her friend, one of her best friends, and she knew he was starting to get ill again. So bringing him over some supplies was best. While standing in the kitchen, she glanced over to the door with the lock on it. She heard small whimpers through the door. She knew what Donovan had done. But Donovan was her friend. She wouldn't rat him out. She looked down at the ground and moved away from the kitchen, placing the items on the table, and left the house. There was too much tension in there for her to stay, especially if that guy woke up. She'd be pressured to help him escape. Donovan would probably kill her if she helped him.

Steffan looked up from his book when Oakley approached and he removed his headphones quickly. "Not at all." He replied, gesturing to the seat across the table from him. He recognized her but he didn't yet remember her name. He didn't wait for her to sit down before he went back to his notes.

Oakley took a seat and pulled out her World History textbook. She wanted to finish up some of the homework, there were a few questions that had stumped her but she'd waited until he was in class to finish them. It was easier to do homework in class, she thought. When you're in there, and you can feel the memories of history in your head. It was easier. And not just for history, but for any class, really. But when she was at her dorm trying to do her homework, it was much more difficult. Her mind was never in the same mindset that she needed it to be. While working on the questions, she let her eyes drift up to stare at Steffan. She knew his name, because she'd remembered hearing Dr. Thomas say it a few times, asking him questions. But she didn't know him. She wondered what his major was. She let her eyes move back to the question. Not a good moment to appear staring at her classmate.

Steffan kept skimming through another few pages, stopping now and again to make notes. His notes were very short and abbreviated and most from one chapter fit onto one page. He noticed her look up at him and glanced back at her, then glancing at her textbook. "Having any trouble?" He asked.

Scary lol)
Danny looks between them and tightens his right hand into a fist. "Give it up and tell us what you know!" He growled feeling some anger build up inside of him. He usually didn't get angry but he could feel something rising inside of him.

Oakley looked back up when Steffan had spoke, eyes wide. She smiled and nodded, sheepish. "Uh, well...I'm stuck on this one question. It's number 15 on last weeks homework, I've been trying to find it but it's not in the book. It's more of a "know" question, I guess..." She hummed, looking back down. "What are the seven wonders of the ancient world, and are any of them still standing? Well, I know the Pyramid of Giza is still standing. But I don't think the others are. Also, I've written down six of them, and I'm missing one. I have the Lighthouse of Alexandria, the Temple of Artemis, the Statue of Zeus, and the Mausoleum at Halicarnassus, plus the Great Pyramid of Giza. But I can't remember the last one, at least at the top of my head. Do you know?"
(i honestly had no idea what question to write lol)
"Now, Danny, let's not--" But before Sherlock could finish his sentence, Donovan sprang forward and pushed himself in front of Danny, standing tall and breathing erratically. He narrowed his eyes.
"Why do you think I know anything? How do we not know it was YOU who kidnapped Mikel? After all, he's always with you, isn't he? He's always with you! Always! There's never a damn moment when he's not! He even messages you in class! So, tell me, do you know anything, Danny? Are you keeping him to yourself?" There were flames sparking in his green eyes, "Don't put all the blame on me." He curled his fists up.

"A general knowledge question? That's from last week?" Steffan pulled out his own World History textbook and opened it to the question. That's only 5, you're missing the Colossus of Rhodes and the Hanging Gardens of Babylon." He said. "If it's a yes or no questions you can just put 'yes' since we know the Pyramid of Giza is still standing, unless it's asking you to name the ones still standing."

"How do you know he messages me during class?" Danny pointed out resisting the urge to smirk a little. He managed to find a crack in the armor. "Secondly, I have not kidnap Mikel. He wants to be with me and to sleep in my bed." He said smirking a little bit. Danny added that part to see Donovan's reaction.

"Yeah...I'm still getting some of my work done from the beginning of class. It's, uh, a work in progress." Oakley gave a sheepish smile, slightly embarrassed in her lack of knowledge to the basic question, "Thank you, though. I wasn't sure where in the book it stated that, since it was more of a knowledge question than an actual question from the chapter. I'll write them down now." She continued to move through each question, finishing up the answers almost easily now. After finishing page one of her homework, she noticed she had some free time and pulled out a novel from her backpack. It was titled, "The Five Stages of Andrew Brawley".

"Oh no, here we g-"
Before Sherlock got to finish rolling his eyes, exhausted by the new situation, Donovan nearly launched himself and Danny, almost close enough that Sherlock had to intervene. "I only know it because it's what he used to do with me!" Donovan snarled, "He messages a lot of people. You don't know that by now?" Of course, the messages he and Mikel used to send each other back and forth weren't always easy and were normally more along the lines of Mikel asking who Donovan was and why he wanted to be around all the time, which furthered into a small "friendship", at least on Donovan's side. But he didn't let Danny know that. "I wonder whose bed he's sleeping in now?" Donovan smirked, eyes nearly glowing in satisfaction, "I wonder? Did he really get kidnapped, or maybe he just needed some air."
"That's enough!" Sherlock shouted at the two of them, pulling on Danny's arm and pushing Donovan back. A few people still in the music store were watching and waiting with tension.

Danny pushes against Sherlocks body. "I can hire a private investigator!" He yelled letting his anger get the best of him. "You wouldn't believe what money can do when you are searching for the truth! I bet you have him locked in your basement cause your jealous! I will find him one way or another!" All Danny wanted was to punch Donovan in the face.

"Alright, let's go." Sherlock pulled Danny back with him, heading towards the exit, "We'll figure something out. Don't let him get to you." He turned his head at Donovan, who was still fuming but standing his ground this time. Sherlock narrowed his eyes, glaring at the one person he used to consider his friend. But that had all changed.
"You keep trying to find him, I promise you won't look long..." Donovan smirked, "But what you find depends on how you treat me." He said under his breath, then walked the opposite direction and headed out of the store, placing the CDs in his hands on the nearest counter.

"They are in the textbook, just not in that chapter. It's from the chapter before that." Steffan opened the textbook to the chapter before showing the page where it has each of the wonders and short description about them. He closed his textbook when she finished her homework and quickly wrote the last of his notes before packing everything into his bag. "What's that book about?" he asked

"It's a...long story," Sherlock sighed, stepping over to his car. He opened the door, beckoning Danny to get in, "I can tell you some of it on the way, if you promise not to tell Mikel. He doesn't...he doesn't know."
---
Oakley looked up from the book and gave a small smile, "It's about this boy named Andrew Brawley. He's pretty much lost everything he ever had. He has no one else to go to, because his family all died, so he ends up going to the hospital and stays in an empty supply closet without anyone knowing. Eventually, he ends up helping the nurses serve the food and taking care of things when needed. While hiding away from everything, he draws. It's his only comfort. He makes characters from his comic book and pretty much brings them to life. Especially this superhero he names "Patient F". Well, one day, this boy named Rusty is placed in the hospital, badly burned, and Andrew is really curious. They find comfort in each other. Andrew wants to try to help Rusty, but in order to do that, he's going to have to confront the past he keeps hiding from. In other words, he's going to have to go back to the night his parent's were killed..." She says, rambling. Finally, she scratches at her arm in embarrassment. "Um, but yeah. I haven't finished it, so I'm still uncertain on what's going to happen. That's, like, a summary of it, so far. It's really good though." She looked up at Steffan, "Do you like to read?"
