Shauna woke up with a tear stained pillow, a sense of dread and "impending doom" weighing on her chest. Not only did today mark one week since her cousin Olivia's untimely death, but it also marked the day of her funeral. Ever since the young woman's remains had been found in the muck of Lafayette Bayou, it was as if the world as Shauna knew it came crashing down. Before Olivia passed, Shauna had not yet known the pain of losing a loved one, and hadn't been expecting to any time soon. The two young women were never as close as they could have been, Olivia having always been a bit critical of Shauna's "wild" and reckless demeanor, but they were still blood relatives and loved each other regardless. Naturally, the news came as a great shock to the entire family, but as the days went on, Shauna just couldn't shake the heart-breaking feeling of regret and guilt.

"I should've talked to her more," Shauna said through sobs as she buried her head into her mother's bosom, "I should've called more often and asked her about her day. I should have been a better cousin." She repeated these words over and over the night her mother broke the news, and even as she sat at the edge of her bed on this early, grim Saturday morning, she couldn't help but recite them again in her head.

The rising sun shot rays of light through Shauna's bedroom window, warming her body as she slowly made her way around the room, throwing articles of clothing onto her bedspread: a black dress, black heels, a black purse, and black stockings. Shauna's mother had brought the ensemble home the day before the funeral along with a black suit for her father, knowing that neither one of them had even owned a pair of black socks, let alone an entire outfit. Shauna got dressed and "fixed up" in less than twenty minutes, not bothering to put on any makeup in fear of what her face would have looked like after all the tears. After taking one last look in the mirror, Shauna made her way downstairs to the kitchen, spotting a note left by her parents pinned to the fridge. Both of her parents had left before Shauna woke up, wanting to go eat Breakfast with the rest of the family at Nicky's before the funeral. The two must have known that Shauna would not have been able to eat a bite of food that morning, which she didn't.

Shauna drove to the funeral in her BMW, going just a bit over the speed limit as usual. By the time she arrived, both of her parents were outside waiting for her. "Just go on inside," she said as she approached them, "I need a few minutes." Her parents just nodded their heads and silently went inside, leaving Shauna standing not too far from the entrance. She stood still for a few moments, her eyes staring down at her shiny black heels. Shauna had always been more spiritual than religious. Hell, she wasn't even sure if she believed that there was a God, but she simply couldn't help herself from wondering if Olivia was up in "heaven" somewhere, looking down at all of them. But then she entered the church and she saw her big cousin's body laying still in the casket, and the only thought that remained in Shauna's mind was, "We're going to find the motherfucker who did this to you. I promise."

Laketta sighed and turned over in the bean bag chair, burying herself deeper into the folds. Not too much time had gone by since she'd fallen asleep, and she knew that she'd eventually have to leave the strangely comfortable chair and head back to work. Nonetheless, Laketta remained fast asleep, her breathing deep and even, and a gentle snuffling of air blowing through her nose. It wouldn't be long before she would begin snoring, a small dribble of drool sliding down the side of her mouth. She didn't even hear when her boss, Mrs. Gran, burst through the library doors and noisily made her way to her office to put away her things. She didn't move a muscle when the elderly woman peered into the children's isle, laughing to herself after seeing Laketta's still body in the beanbag chair. Gran just smiled and shook her head at the young lady before returning to her office to handle library business. She'd let her get her rest. For now, at least.

At the sound of a voice speaking from behind, Laketta practically leaped out of her seat, a startled noise escaping from her lips. "Holy shit," she exclaimed, her bewildered expression adjusting into a broad smile once her eyes settled on the oddly familiar young man, "you really shouldn't sneak up on people like that, dude." Laketta chuckled and playfully rolled her eyes. "And I'm not entirely sure why I even had it," she said with an honest shrug of her shoulders, "Chocolate is awful, so I tossed it out."

As Laketta settled back into her seat, she took another long glance at the young man, her eyebrow raised. More often than not, Laketta was alone in her dreams, the only exceptions being a few "background characters" that seemed to fit into the scene she was in, and a few people from her past. The background characters, of course, never really spoke to her like this man did, and she was very sure that he wasn't someone from her past. Yet, there he was, a familiar young man that for some weird reason, she was drawn to. This dream was getting stranger by the second, and Laketta was unsure of how to feel, but after another second of unashamed staring, it all seemed to finally click in Laketta's head.

"Hey, I know you," she said with a snap of her fingers, "you're the barista from that coffee shop." She finished her sentence with a slight nod of her head, memories from her previous dream quickly flooding back into her mind. "I gotta hand it to you, man. You make a pretty bangin' Caramel Frappe." As she spoke, she slid over to make room on the bench, confidently holding her hand out towards the man. "Laketta."

▾ Name:

Shauna Martina Jenkins
"It's just Shaun."

▾ Age:

Seventeen

▾ Gender:

Female

▾ Sexuality:

▾ Piercings, Tattoos, Scars:

▾ Dependable ▾ Short-Tempered ▾ Goofy ▾ Careless ▾

▾ Personality:

If you had to describe Shaun in one word, most people would choose terms along the lines of "fun", "comical" or "witty". A textbook extrovert, Shaun loves to chat with people (unless she's having a bad day, in which case she'll lean towards negativity and passive-aggression), make others laugh, and tends to be genuinely friendly. She does not shy away from talking to strangers. Shaun is a seemingly calm and laid-back girl, yet is by no means a pushover. She can more than take care of herself, but is smart enough to know when to pick a fight and when to let something go. She is someone who isn't weighed down by the troubles of everyday life, is not restricted by other people's opinions, and is always herself regardless of the situation. Shaun is also an adventurous thrill-seeker, and will often times dare to go farther than others when in dangerous/life-threatening situations.

She is confident in herself and her actions, often to a fault. She is very opinionated, has trouble asking for help, and hates admitting when she's wrong. When things don't go as she planned or in a positive direction, she can get frustrated very easily. Shaun also has a bit of a "potty mouth," and uses profanity even when she isn't trying to. She also has a lot of trouble controlling her temper, and whenever someone pushes her to her limit, she'll snap; it will often result in her yelling a large number of obscene words, throwing objects, and even going as far as to get physical. Despite all of her shortcomings, there's no denying that Shaun is usually kind and dependable. If you ask her to meet you somewhere, she will be there; if she promises to do something, she will do it; if you ask her for help, she will do everything in her power to assist. Underneath the frustrated sighs and eye-rolls lies a person who's kind and caring at the core.

▾ Biography:

Born as the only child of two New York City natives, Shauna came up extremely spoiled. From the very moment she was born, the young girl got almost everything she wanted, whether it be a doll or clothing item she spotted in the mall, or a shiny new car from the local dealership. Even though her parents weren't the most fortunate, she was often rewarded for her outstanding performance in school and extracurricular activities. Despite being coddled since birth, Shauna grew to be a very humbled and kind young lady. She never got into too much trouble with her parents, and (almost) always abided by their rules. Because of the great deal of trust between she and her parents, Shaun has managed to get away with quite a lot without her parents ever finding out, such as doing crazy stunts and dares with her friends, smoking weed on the roof, and even racing cars in the middle of the night.

Ever since Shaun was sixteen, she has worked part-time at her Aunt Nicole's Mexican restaurant, and spends the majority of her free time helping her dad out in his auto repair shop or shooting hoops at the school gym. Because of her good grades, it is likely that she will get into a good college after she graduates next year. Although many of her friends are "jocks" or "stoners," Shaun gets along with everybody and never fails at putting a smile on someone's face. The recent discovery of her cousin's death came as a great shock to the entire family, including Shaun who used to look up to the young woman.

Is there still room for a couple more campers? If not, I completely understand.

@spacecakes Maybe Laketta and Billie would have some sort of relationship? They both live in Ann Arbor, and if Billie ever had a reason to stop by the library or a Jazz lounge, or Laketta by the post office, they could have met each other?
