She shook his hand without hesitation, and grabbed her plate from Spike immediately afterwards. The smell of the freshly grilled cheeseburger and hotdog wafted to her nose in an instant, making her stomach rumble and her mouth salivate. She reached for the ketchup as soon as Eleazar's friend or whoever returned it to its proper place on the table. [color=silver]"Nice to meet ya Christian,"[/color] she said, flashing the boy a flirtatious smile before refocusing her attention on the plate of food before her. She took a couple of seconds to coat her hotdog in ketchup, as well as draw a cute little smiley face on her cheeseburger before remembering that she had yet to introduce herself to both Christian [i]and[/i] Eleazer. [color=silver]"I'm Tyler, but everyone around here just calls me Ty."[/color] As soon as she finished speaking, Ty took that opportunity to find out if Spike and Eleazar were as gifted on the grill as Christian had made them out to be. She took a fairly large bite out of her burger, and her eyes almost rolled to the back of her head as soon as she began to chew. [color=silver]"Holy shit, you weren't kidding. These are the fucking [i]bomb[/i]."[/color] she said to Christian between bites, a euphoric feeling beginning to overtake her body. What a wonderful way to satisfy her munchies. Ty had only gotten about halfway through her burger before the smell of tobacco suddenly overcame her senses. The young woman let out a cough as she watched Christian wave away a cloud of smoke that had been blown in their faces by none other than... [color=silver]"Cade! Hey! Everything's all good. You should try one of these burgers... it's good shit, I'm telling ya."[/color] And with that, she took another bite of her burger. [color=silver]"Now Cade, you already know I fuck with you heavy... but is that a... a [i]black n mild[/i] that you're smoking? Come on now... I got something better we all can smoke in my purse."[/color] And just as she was about to dig around for her baggie of joints, the small group was joined by yet another. [color=#F5B041]"Hello, Chris. Hello, Ty..."[/color] A new voice called out, and Ty whipped her head around to see a familiar face walking in their direction. Tyler couldn't help but feel a little... or actually, a [i]lot[/i] surprised at the fact that she was seeing none other than [i]Grisha Blackmore[/i] at a [i]high school party.[/i] She never would've pegged him as the partying type, despite only knowing him for less than a week. But, who knows? Maybe she had gotten him all wrong. Nevertheless, she greeted him with the same stoned, goofy grin she'd given to almost everyone else who'd walked by. [color=silver]"Hey [i]Grish[/i], how's it going?"[/color] The young woman said once he'd come to a stop nearby. [color=silver]"Grisha, that's Spike, Eleazar, and Cade... guys, this is Grisha."[/color] She probably could've been a little more detailed, but she was way more interested in finishing what was on her plate than making introductions. She'd finished the hamburger and had set her sights on the hotdog; she'd eaten about half when she realized just how dry her mouth had suddenly become. She finished the rest of her food within thirty seconds, and tossed her plate in the nearby trash before saying, [color=silver]"I'm gonna go find where the drinks are if anyone wants to tag along... I'm gonna need something very [i]very[/i] strong before going out on that dancefloor."[/color] And as she began to walk away, she threw her hand up and waved at those behind her. [color=silver]"See ya. Have fun. Find me later if you wanna smoke."[/color] [/indent][/indent][/color] [hr][hr] [color=silver][center][img]https://fontmeme.com/permalink/201023/11dce7e05d0c89c433582176bc50d63c.png[/img] [img]https://i.imgur.com/sB3q3p2.png[/img] [color=#97ADBB][b]▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂[/b][/color][/center] [indent][indent]A feeling of relief washed over JJ as Olivia, or [i]Liv[/i], offered him a gentle smile and warm response to his compliment. And he was just about to answer her question about how he was enjoying the party before another person unexpectedly interrupted their conversation. [color=2D7DD2]"Alright, let's move it along now,"[/color] the taller boy had said as he slunk an arm around Liv's shoulder, and all of the relief that had been present in JJ's body suddenly washed away. Who in the [i]Hell[/i] was this guy? And why did he have to swoop in right when things were starting to go well? JayVaughn watched in silence as Liv scowled at the older boy, but flashed her a kind smile when her eyes found his once more. [color=#97ADBB]"Yeah, I guess I'll just... catch you later,"[/color] he said back before she was pulled away in the opposite direction. [color=#97ADBB]"Hope you guys have fun."[/color] But by the time he'd finished this last sentence, the pair were already out of hearing range. [color=#97ADBB]"[i]Fuck[/i],"[/color] the young boy muttered under his breath as he rolled his eyes, turned on his heel, and began making his way back to the cooler to retrieve his bottle of water. While he was slightly annoyed by what had just happened, the young man decided, as he took a few gulps from the bottle, that he wouldn't let it put a damper on the rest of his night. He knew that this wouldn't be the last time he'd try to get to know Liv; hopefully then there won't be any more interruptions. Soon, JJ found himself wandering around the large house, searching for any familiar faces. He pushed through the crowds of students and eventually found himself in the backyard. His eyes instantly lit up at the sight of it all. It didn't take him long to set sights on the large bouncy house that stood in the grass, not too far from the pool. He could see a few drunken students had already started wildly jumping about inside, and suddenly felt the urge to join them. After thinking it over for a few seconds, he decided to give in to his inner-child. He left his sneakers in a dark spot behind the bouncy house out of the fear of them being stolen (old habits), and then entered through the little door in the front. He was welcomed by everyone with open arms. [/indent][/indent][/color]
