Restaurant.

River and Derrick walked into the restaurant hand in hand. She wasn't about to let go, she never wanted to, not after everything that had happened.

Derrick found a table and guided River, to it and pulled a seat for her.

((hello??))

(Sorry)
"Thanks." She said, smiling.

((:p))

He sat down in the chair in front of her and picked up the menu, and mumbled to himself.

"What did you say?" River asked, as the waiter took their drinks order.

"Oh just figuring out what to order" He says lookin up from the menu and smiling

(hey I gtg but I'll be back on in a couple hours or less :())
"Oh." River scanned over the menu, thinking.

((You back yet?))

(Hey yep I am. Sorry I was gone longer than planned ;))

(thats fine :))

Derrick now cant keep his eyes off River, he is hypnotized by her beauty

River tucked a lock of behind her ear and caught Derrick's gaze. "What?" She asked, smiling shyly.

"your just so damn pretty" He says smiling at her

She laughed, her eyes sparkling. "Ha, well, thank you very much. And you are very handsome."
Suddenly, a stab of pain shot through River's head and she gasped.
(ha never a dull moment ;))

Derrick looked at her concerned, "You okay Riv?" He asks worriedly

((hello???))

(*Pokes in the arm* I'm here! lol)
River swallowed, rubbing her head. "Uh, yeah. Sorry."
But yet another sharp stab ripped through her mind and left her breathless. What the hell was going on? Her mind was only connected to one other person besides Derrick... "Does- does your head hurt right now?" She asked.

"My head feels fine." He starts to think "Oh no.. Raf, something might be wrong with him."

River nodded, the color draining from her face- she'd heard what he thought. "I don't know what could be wrong with him... I mean, your fight with him was days ago, he should be fine-" She was cut off as her stomach lurched.

"River!!" He said getting up and rushing to her.

(Brb 30 mins :())
She looked at him, "You need to find him- Raf. Something's wrong."

Alright, please, go to the hospital, while i find Raf.
((HURRRRRRYYYYYY))

(I AM BAAACKKK!! oh god not- THE HOSPITAL lol xD)
River stood up shaking, and caught him by the arm. "Derrick, don't you dare hurt him again." She warned.

"I promise, I wont hurt him." he says looking at her "I'll call you when I find him." he kisses her on the cheek and bolts out the resturant.

((Where is Raf? LOL))

(lol ummm...down an alleyway on the streets I'll post xD)
River watched him go and staggered to the door, clutching her head.

(oh wait nvm that's not there anymore...okay he's at the Ruins. My bad xD)

((alright))

(lol I posted :))

"There's a spot," Ryan motioned to a booth across from them. "I'll grab us a couple menus while we wait?"

"Kay," Ryan said, already skimming through the menus. He hadn't eaten since that morning, and was starving. "Do you want a drink?" He asked.

Ryan nodded. "Yep." Also closing his menu and putting it aside. He motioned for the waiter who hurried over, and let Shale put her order in first.

(Sorry that took me so long!)
When their orders were in, Ryan looked at Shale, leaning closer to her across the table.
"Do you have classes tomorrow?" He asked.

"I've got about a month left." Ryan sighed. He looked down at the soda he'd gotten, tracing the rim of the glass with his finger. He smirked, and touched his hand to the cup. The Dr. Pepper shimmered and bubbled into a clear liquid. He tasted, and nodded in approval. "Much better. This way I pay the amount for a soda and can get something a little better."

He shook his head. "No no, it's fine. Uh, tell you the truth I'm not a hundred percent sure. Like I said, when I got here I kind of zoned out on everything the directory was saying."

Ryan set his glass down, his eyebrows furrowed. "That's a good question..." He mused. "Well, it's loud. Everyone's loud, everything's loud. And people aren't always very kind to each other, or respectful." He lightened his tone with a small smile. "But sometimes... there's just something awesome everywhere you look. Neon lights, movie theaters, concerts." He looked at her with sincerity in his bright eyes. "I'll take you to see it all if we every get out of here." He promised.

He smiled, squeezing her hand. Then, he said in a quiet voice.
"Um... can I ask you something?"

Ryan wasn't entirely sure of how to put it, and he took a deep breath. "You just broke up with Brayden not long ago... I'm not a...rebound, am I?"

"I mean... you're not doing this to get back at him, are you? Because he seemed pissed when he saw us at the mansion but..." Ryan trailed off, looking down at the wood of the table.

Ryan swallowed, a part of him not quite believing her words, but he nodded. "Yeah.. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to upset you."

Ryan looked up at her, casting aside the thoughts. "No, I do. I'm sorry, it's just...that's how my last relationship was."

Stefan walked in dressed in a blue sweater with a white shirt underneath and gray pant, and black oxford shows. he sat at his usual table. The chauffeur was waiting outside with his luggage in the car. He hadn't moved in yet in the circle and didn't even give the leader prior notice, but it was too late anyway.
He ordered a Champagne and asked for his course.

While Stefan was taking a sip of his glass, he found a girl in a wheel chair and people were looking at her with sympathy.
He got out of his chair and introduced himself his hero mode was on now.
"Hii, I'm Stefan" he said smiling a little arrogantly for it to be considered a friendly smile, but at least he tried "Would you like to join me?"

Stefan followed her to the table "I know how it's like to be surrounded by staring eyes" he said meaning to be reassuring, but he felt as if he's insulted her, so he quickly called for a waiter " a menu please" then looked back at her "so Taylor have you been living here long?"

She was new here, no wonder she doesn't know who he is, which suited him perfectly. "Oh umm, been living here all my life actually" he smiled.
The waiter dropped the menu at their table "Thank you" Said not looking at the waiter.

((Can you be a bit more descriptive?))

"Yeah, cool" he said in a monotone. Being the talk of the city isn't exactly cool but he dismissed that thought. "So how old are you Taylor?" He asked trying to keep the conversation going while she was still skimming her menu.

(( cool, just try describe how she feels all the time when rping ;) ))

Stefan smiled as he filled his cup with more champagne "Would you like some?" He asked as he put down the bottle. He hoped non of photographers are following him tonight, it would look very awkward to explain being with a girl with flaming blue hair. "Aren't you gonna order?" He asked as she was still skimming the menu.

"Oh no no, I'm all alone tonight" he said feeling embarrassed that he was so obvious. "I'll be moving into a circle tonight, did you graduate yet?" He asked starting to loosen up a little.
The waiter came up with his food he motioned to him "I'll wait for hers" he said before he put it on the table.

"Oh, sorry. Were you home schooled?" He asked, he never knew anyone who was home schooled. His grandfather always said education is more important than your position. But of course he was a founder so that was no problem for him. "Umm you're not gonna order?"

"Oh great" he muttered under his breath "Just ignore them" he said.
"So what's your story? You don't go ti school and don't eat and don' drink?" He motioned for his food, since she wasn't gonna orderer. "You don't have to tell me of course I'm a complete stranger to you"
