Re: Freshmen Dorms

[Guest]

James shook his head following Seth back to the girls dorms, and he promptly ignored Seth's remark of Evelyn being "his girl" that was the last thing she was in this current moment.

He was a bit afraid of Seth's mix of liquor. James could never really hold down alcohol and the last thing he wanted to do was oh die.

James shoves his hands into his jacket pockets and looked at Seth who still seemed to be bouncing, arriving at the girls suite he walked in seeing the door was open and almost stepped on Jake who was sprawled out on the floor near the entrance.

He also saw two twins, he vaugely remembered seeing somewhere else, both of them with girls and chatting them up, also on the floor was Connor in.... a bra? James snorted pulling out his phone and snapping a picture of Connor, he totally had to show that to Luke when he went back to the apartment.

"So where's Alexis at? I wanna see what you did to her?" James asked.

[Tiger-Lily]

Seth, unlike James, didn't bother stepping around Jake. He stepped on his back and then stepped down on the other side to get to the hallway that led to the girls' rooms. He collided with a blond who didn't appear to be busy - she was just leaning against the wall. Seth instantly forgot what he was supposed to be doing when she smiled at him. He paused, turned to James, handed him the jug and said, "Go down the hall. You'll see her."

He winked and slung an arm around the cute blond, leading her over to where Ashton sat and pulling her down next to him. "Tony, come out here, I brought James," he announced, before rounding the corner.

[Guest]

"FUCK!" Jacob shouted turning over onto his back, because the dumb bastard decided to step onto his kidney.

James let out a small laugh, as he walked down the hall to go see the TPed Alexis, not really sure which one was her's he walked inside one of the dark rooms, he saw both doors were a bit open, and he just walked in not really knowing whose room was whose.

The light hit the form on the bed, apparently struggling with a phone, he saw the glint of bronze hair in the light and unless Alexis had decided while drunk to dye her hair, James knew he was in the wrong room, "Um.... "


Antonio raised an eyebrow, and his girl that he was with was looking at him, and he held up his finger, "One second babe." He got up and rounded the corner only seeing Jake groaning on the floor and he looked back at Seth, "Um dude... no one is here except Jake."

[Tiger-Lily]

Seth, before answering Antonio, laughed at Jake's writhing form. "Get up, Sally," he chortled, amused. The girl he was with decided to get feisty and bite his ear. Seth swore out loud.

He shoved her away from him, wide eyed. "What the - where were you raised, the Amazon jungle? I get the bitch thing but sheesh, woman!"

***

Evelyn dropped her hand from her necklace, surprised and somewhat paranoid. She couldn't make out who the tall form towering over her in the darkness was.

She didn't know anyone that tall here aside for Jake - and it wasn't his voice.

Fear shot through her and she fumbled around under her bed as quickly as she could without making a racket. Her hands were clumsy but she grabbed hold of something hard - and chucked it at the shadowy figure. Her aim was drunkenly off - and the hardcover textbook hit the guy's face instead of his chest. Evelyn sat up, clutching her blanket to her in fright.

"MURDERER! RAPIST! HEEEELP!" she shrieked loud enough to wake everyone tree floors below them. Then she hiccuped.

[Guest]

The book had made impact with James' nose and he cursed out loud, "Fuck!" Also he was sure he had finally went deaf at Evelyn's freaking sound barrier shriek, he fumbled around in the dark a bit finding a light switch he turned it on and illuminated the dark room, and walked over to Evelyn and shook her.

"Ev! Damn it, calm down its me... James!" He shouted, although him yelling wasn't exactly calming.

Jake rolled over once more and got up off the ground looking at Seth, and the crazy biting girl before he could say anything though he heard Evelyn's scream pierce through all the noise they were causing and he looked at Seth raising an eyebrow, "Yo... I think Red's dying..." He hiccuped.

[Tiger-Lily]

"Go save her, then," was Seth's carefree response, and the blond he was with took this as a sign to sling her arms drunkenly around his neck and make out with him.

Ashton straightened in his seat, shoving the girl off his lap. His eyes widened at Jake. "Take the, uh....take the umbrella!" he exclaimed, pointing at one near the door that one of the girls must have left.

***

Evelyn felt dazed when the lights suddenly came on. And she was suddenly face to face with familiar blue eyes. And she was being shaken like a rag doll.

Evelyn's stomach lurched. "Hi, James. I think I'm going to puke on you," she informed him, her voice hoarse as Jake's after all the screaming. She didn't really register his being here. In her dorm room. At 3 on a Saturday night. She was more worried because...

Evelyn felt a bitter taste rise in her mouth and swallowed heavily to fight it off.

[Guest]

"Pfft fuck that, I'm too pretty to die this young." Jake said stumbling back into the living area.

***

James stepped back a few feet, the last thing he wanted was to end up in Evelyn's vomit, not that something similar hasn't happened before, his thoughts had went back to the Masquerade ball briefly, and he felt a shiver pass through him. Remembering how he had held Evelyn's hair back when she threw up and remembering dancing with her.

He looked at her, and was a bit shocked to see her this drunk. Although he assumed a lot had changed in the last two weeks since they had been here so maybe she got drunk like this on the weekend for fun.

Although right now he could tell in her eyes she wasn't really looking to good, "Um... hey are you going to be alright? You're not looking too hot."

There was another lie there, she did still look pretty, despite being blasted off her ass. He shouldn't even be thinking that, they weren't talking to each other. So why was he in here? And why did he care so much if she threw up in her own room?

[Tiger-Lily]

Seth felt a little guilty now. The redhead had sounded kind of terrified. And this was New York. What if some creep climbed up the fire escape and into her window?! Seth began visualizing all sorts of horrid scenarios from CSI: NY montage scenes.

He pushed away the girl on his lap and stood up - wobbled like crazy - and headed to the umbrella. At least, he was aiming on getting there. He hit a chair in his way and went sprawling over it onto the floor. "Holy Buddha!"

"What?" Ashton asked, looking kind of scared - Seth couldn't tell if it was because Ashton didn't like Buddhists or if he was worried about the screaming.

Seth staggered up again, face red where it had hit the floor, and grabbed onto Jake to stay upright. "Lezz go rescue tha' bitch!" he slurred. He grabbed onto the umbrella and swung it for practice - and hit Jake in the face. "Fuck, dawg, why you be standin' in mah space?!"

***

Evelyn managed to fight back the wave of sickness and blinked wordlessly up at James. Did he actually sound nice? That was all wrong! She furrowed her eyebrows. He'd just insulted her too, and very gently. What the hell? "You're a je...jerk," she managed to say with considerable effort, but it didn't quite come out very angrily.So she went on with, "Get your hands off of me." Truth was, his warm grip on her shoulders was probably the only thing holding her upright, but she was starting to realize this was James.

[Guest]

Jake's head snapped to the side, and he turned around and punched Seth hard in the arm, "Fuck bro! God we'll go see if she's alright, watch where you're swinging that damn thing!"

***

James raised an eyebrow at her, he didn't understand why he had even been nice to her. Okay well semi-nice but still it was a step up then flat out insulting her, not that she deserved him being nice to her anyway, so he let her go and let her stagger around the room.

"Fine help yourself then." He said firmly.

[Tiger-Lily]

Seth staggered, off-balance with his drunken state of mind. He held onto a passing girl for balance and winked at her. "'Sup?" She giggled and Seth let go, suddenly remembering his heroic task.

"Hey, lezz kill that fucker!" he announced to Jake, slinging an arm around his shoulders and staggering in a crooked line down the hall. He wobbled and hit the wall. "Shit, man, watch where you're going!" he snapped at Jake like it had been the Spaniard's idea they get so plastered.

***

Evelyn swayed a bit and then caught herself, leaning forward and placing her palms flat out on the mattress in front of her crossed legs. She heaved a breath. Nothing in her head made any sense. Why was she being such a bitch to him? So what if he was a douchebag? She'd told Alexis she wanted to be a new her, right?

And she really, really didn't want to fight with him. Her drunken self was now open enough to admit she really missed him. "Sorry I'm such a bitch," she muttered hoarsely to the blanket.

[Guest]

Jake looked down at Seth gritting his teeth, so as they made their little journey down the small hallway, he accidentally-on-puprpose shoved Seth hard into the wall. "Oops my bad dawg." He smirked.

***

James sighed, looking down at Evelyn he brought his fingers to feel if it was bleeding but everything seemed alright. He ran a hand through his hair and said, "Don't be sorry for being a bitch, its who you are. You can't change who you are. Just like how I'm a dick, you'll always be a bitch."

[Tiger-Lily]

Evelyn shot the brunet a surprised look, like this was the dumbest thing she'd ever heard since hearing Jake talk. "You're not!"

***

Seth groaned and, his arm still around Jake's neck, shoved him into the wall on the other side of the hallway. "Back at ya, bitch." He kept them walking.

Ashton was flicking through a magazine one of the girls had left under the coffee table. He glanced at his brother. "Yo, Tons?" he slurred. "Change that gay song."

[Guest]

Antonio saluted his brother, and got up and waltzed across the room flipping through the CD, finding something with some more bump in it, he danced his way back to the girl he was talking to.

***

Jake grunted, glaring down at Seth, he stole his umbrella from him and slammed himself into Evelyn's door, "HAVE NO FEAR FOR WE ARE HERE RED!!"

Before James could even respond, the door had flown open, knocking James into the wall behind the door and he yelled, "MOTHERFUCKER!"

[Tiger-Lily]

Ashton's girl decided she wanted to dance and pulled him up to drunkenkly sway with her, tripping over things along the way.

Evelyn yelped in fear again and ducked back under her blanket, peering over it, green eyes wide. "Is it another rapist??" She caught sight of Jake with...an umbrella? "Oh, no, it's worse!"

Seth, who had fallen into the room after Jake, now lay at the Spaniard's feet. "Another? Where's the firs' one?" he slurred.

[Guest]

Jake accidentally stepped on his blond friend's head, looking for the scanning the tiny room for the potential rapist/murder, umbrella firmly in his hand he ignored Evelyn's girlish screams.

James groaned quietly behind the door, and having heard Jake's voice he decided to give the bastard a taste of his own medicine, so he slammed the door as hard as he could into the back of the Spaniard.

"MAN DOWN!" Jake shouted flailing about first before falling down right on top of Seth, his weapon flying out from his hand and landing on the floor a few feet away, James emerging from the back of the door head throbbing in pain from being slammed into a wall.

"God damn it!" He cursed, his blue eyes stinging, as he rubbed them.

[Tiger-Lily]

Seth felt like his skull had cracked under Jake's foot - his nose was squished into the damn carpet at least. And then Jake had gone and crashed right on top of him.

Seth literally saw flashing lights for a second and heard someone damning God over his head. "Yo, that ain't cool, dawwwg," he slurred incoherently, not even bothering to move from under Jake. His head was killing him. "God gave us beautiful women," Seth added thoughtfully.

Evelyn was so taken aback by the past five seconds, she could only sit there staring. And then it clicked that these "rescuers" had probably concussed both James and themselves.

Note to self: when in a life-death situation, never yell within earshot of Jake: he'll just screw you over and make you wish you'd died quietly instead.

She sighed, tried not to throw up at the movement and got off the bed to walk haphazardly to the boys. She reached up and placed a hand on James' forehead to tilt his face downwards. He had a serious shiner where the door had caught him in the side of his cheek. "Ash found an ice pack in the freezer," she said, trying not to slur. She couldn't remember what Ashton had done with it. "It's probably...I'll find it, hang on."

She let go of him and looked down at Jake, leaning carefully to stroke the poor guy's head. "Much appreciated, Sal," she slurred, grinning. "But seriously never consider firefighting - for the love of humanity.

[Guest]

Jake really couldn't muster up the strength to say anything so he just went with giving Evelyn a thumbs up, but he decided to roll of Seth to avoid further crushing his friend to death. It was the least he could do, since it had been Seth's idea to come in here.

He looked over at Seth, "Dude you okay?"

James walked over them, and sat on Evelyn's bed trying to calm that pounding in his head, Jake practically shoved him through the damn foundation.

[Tiger-Lily]

Seth was too weary to do more than flash a thumbs up at Jake too. He lifted his head and blinked up at James. "What are you doing here? This ain't Lex's room!" He cast a glance at Evelyn and his eyes twinkled. "Oh wait, never mind."

Evelyn was too drunk to catch what he meant so she simply reached down and grabbed Jake's collar. "Don't lie there like corpses, get up."

[Guest]

Jake winced at Evelyn's shrill voice, but decided to get up he didn't feel like fighting with her so using the bed for support he lifted himself off the ground, he reached down helping Seth off the ground, "Come on bro, get up."

James unlike Evelyn had heard what Seth had been insinuating but instead of saying anything he just shot him a dirty look. That would be the last thing he would attempt with her, he was just waiting for an ice pack.

[Tiger-Lily]

Evelyn figured Jake and Seth would live, so she headed out to the living area to get James the ice pack - if she could find it.

"Ashton?" she said, tapping the boy on the shoulder but he was busy making out with some ho on the couch and ignored her. Evelyn growled and looked about where Connor had sprawled - and Connor was in fact knocked out yet again.

She heaved a sigh and hollered over to Antonio who was talking to a bunch of girls across the room, over the music blaring out from the stereo, "Tig, d'you know where the ice pack is?"

Seth massaged the back of his head and completely ignored James' glare. He groaned in pain. "I'mma find me some ice, bitches," he hiccuped and followed Evelyn, leaving Jake and James in her room.

[Guest]

Jake stood up looking not really making that much eye contact with James, because to be honest he never knew what kind of terms he was on with the guy. Sometimes they just wouldn't talk to each other, and that was fine. For a split second hell they were friends, and then the next they were talking shit about each other, and throwing each other down stairwells and stabbing each other with glass.

Jake stared at the guy, James feeling Jacob's eyes on him looked up shooting him a nasty glare, one that pretty much read "you-slept-with-my-girl- you're-lucky-you're-drunk- or I'd kill ya." Not that last time he was drunk didn't mean he didn't almost stab him with glass.

So to avoid further awkwardness Jake shrugged, "I'm umm... gonna look for ice for myy head..." With that he turned and walked out of the room.

James figured he could have easily beaten up Jake right now, given the circumstances that he was drunk and James was completely sober, but he didn't want to fight him, he was sick of fighting the guy. It was like no matter what it was his only way at getting back at him, so he just let the bastard leave.

He laid back on Evelyn's bed letting out a slow breath, trying to calm his stupid headache.

Tony pulled himself away from the titillating conversation of his ho, looking up at Evelyn he shrugged, "I dunno, last I saw my brother had it but then I took it from him and then... who knows?"

[Tiger-Lily]

Evelyn threw up her hands and then felt violently sick for a second so she lowered them. God damn alcohol. "Perfect." She began looking around the room stumbling over people's feet and almost colliding with Seth when he turned the corner from the kitchen.

He had an ice pack in his hand. Evelyn snatched it from him and grinned. "Merci!"

"Hey!" he exclaimed indignantly when she rushed past him. Evelyn snickered, amused - then collided with someone else. Jake this time, rounding the corner from the hall. She wobbled and grabbed onto him, almost dropping the ice on his foot. "Shit, sorry! You all right?" she asked, losing focus for a second. This kid was a walking accident-magnet.

[Guest]

Jake staggered a bit, and looked down and saw Evelyn, he shook his head a bit disoriented, "Huh... yeah. Fine, no damage done. Carry on." He said patting her shoulder, and trying to find a spot to sit, he felt dizzy. Probably from colliding into far too many things, or things colliding into him...whatever. He just needed a place to sit.

[Tiger-Lily]

Evelyn momentarily forgot what she was supposed to be doing and held out the ice pack - why was she carrying it around anyways? "Here, Sal, you have a shiner on your jaw."

Seth waltzed dizzily over to Antonio and slung an arm around his neck. "'Sup, brotha!" he slurred and winked at one of the three girls beside them. She smiled back. "Has the kid been borin' ya?"

One of the girls, a brunette, smirked, clearly not so drunk. "No, he's funny." Seth gaped and looked Antonio in the eye.

"You're funny? And I thought that was just a birth defect!" he slurred.

[Guest]

Jake took the ice pack and nodded at Evelyn, "Thanks Roja" With that Jake, went and found a spot near the window and sat underneath it, it had stopped pouring and it had been sprinkling so the cool rain felt good on his skin, as he placed the ice pack to his jaw.

Antonio had smirked at Seth, and smacked the guy on the shoulders, "Of course I'm funny, you can always be funny when you're in the mafia."

James yawned looking down at his phone, it was getting late it was nearly two...or three in the morning? He couldn't tell his eyes were getting blurry. Usually he stayed up late, but since his sleep pattern had been off, he was more tired than he usually was. He slid his phone into his jacket pocket, yawning sleepily again.

Evelyn's bed sure was comfortable, he turned to his side, tucking his arm under his head, he closed his eyes taking in a deep breath feeling himself doze off.
