A Rainy Day (open) Apr 12, 2012 19:12:03 GMT -5

Kerrick exited the school greeted by a spring breeze. Normally he would wait for his brother but he had planned on going to the District Square to buy some bread for dinner that night. I'll certainly take my time. He began slowly strolling to the District Square his blue button up shirt with vertical white stripes pressed against his body from the strong wind. Suddenly, there was a rumble in the distance. The rain rolled across the fields like a whisper and soon Kerrick was soaked, his blue jeans uncomfortably sticking to his skin. Well there goes my relaxing stroll. Kerrick took off in a run towards a nearby willow and hid beneath its branches. Kerrick found the long leaves gave little cover and sighed as he looked up and long drops fell onto his face. He looked down at the ground and leaned against the trunk of the tree. I can't stay long anyway. Kerrick found a strange peace in the droopy willow and found the constant drops of water falling on him refreshing after a long day of school. He pushed his wet hair back showing the scar on his forehead. His whole face could now be seen and his hair looked strangely perfect pulled back outside of the pieces of willow that were scattered in the tattered mess. He suddenly found himself wishing he could stay under the peaceful willow longer before returning to the stresses of the day.

Her feet make a squishing sound in the mud, she mumbles and looks at her heeled hiking shoes frowning, covers her head with a hood. Her skinny jeans press against her skin in a rough way, her blue t-shirt molding against her body.She looks your way and grins shyly then looks back at the ground.I think I've seen him at school before she think to herself, her blonde ponytail drips with rain drops and her blue eyes weary

A girl walked by that woke Kerrick from his daze. He hadn't seen her before but that wasn't unusual. Kerrick was happy with his group of friends so he rarely paid much attention to people outside his group unless it was his current crush. She was heading in the direction he needed to go. He didn't get a good look as she only glanced. She is heading where I need to go and I cannot stay forever. Kerrick was not good at making an approach to talk to a girl even if to simply be friends, but he wanted to take a chance today. Maybe it is this willow. God what do I even say "Hold on, What is your name?" Ahhh that was smooth. Try not to sound so desperate. "Mine is Kerrick." Kerrick smiled covering his original mistake.

Hi I'm Lilly, sorry you saw me face plant into the mud oh yea perfect, not! she opened her herb pouch and pulled out some mint, she popped it in her mouth mint soothed her stress a little. she wiped the mud of her face and flungit off her hands to the ground.

The Girl face planted and Kerrick couldn't help but burst out laughing all tension and nerves emptying out with it. He saw her grab something from her pouch and pop it into her mouth. She wiped the mud from her face and Kerrick held out a hand to let her up. "Well Lilly you certainly are very smooth. Don't worry about the mud I am covered in dirt and willow leaves. I don't think anyone in District eight cares too much about how dirty we look."

I took the boys hand in mine and stood releasing his hand "er-um t-thanks" I spoke softly in a song like voice but it was shy. i shuffled my feet I never really spoke to boys. "uh-er Kerrick right, um-eh thanks for helping me um up" my voice was soft and shy build some pride! I thought to myself.

Kerrick was able to effortlessly help her up. She mumbled a thanks. She doesn't seem too confident. Kerrick smiled at her in a brotherly way. He couldn't help it he was an older brother and it came naturally to him. "Don't worry about it! Sorry about laughing but you have to admit it was funny" His comments were trying to diffuse the awkwardness of the situation. He stood back taking in the situation. She was shy he could tell not only from what she said but her demeanor. She shuffled her feet and avoided eye contact with him. She reminds me of an older form of my sister.

Be loud let your colors show
Try to keep the madness low
If they hear and it's wrong
And they come with torches on
Yeah come on

He suddenly thought back to her fall and laughed again confidence building. "Where are you headed?" Kerrick's smile was genuine. It lit up his face and his eyes turned to slits, his right eye slightly more closed than his left. His face reflected his youth. It would be nice to have company head towards the district square.

She smiled shyly he was kind.

Lilly muttered about going to her favorite herb collecting spot. She looked up at him with beautiful blue eyes. Kerrick's smile faltered for a fleeting second. He saw something behind the eyes that caused his pause. His smile returned but Kerrick turned his head to the mud and let it fade into a serous look. It wasn't unusual for members of district 8 to have something hidden behind their eyes but it never ceased to bother Kerrick. He was determined to figure out the cause of Lilly's weariness. It was in his nature from prying it out of his little brother and sister. "Oh? Where is that if you don't mind me asking?" He looked back at her with a smile as he spoke. I have to get her to lower her guard more before I found out why those eyes are so weary. I don't expect her to just spill her guts out of nowhere. Kerrick's own eyes reflected his determination and maturity. Kerrick always loved eyes and felt you could read what someone truly felt from the eyes. "Or at least which way down the path?"

Lilly seemed surprised at the question and shyly answered the question. Down the hill wasn't far and he had to get to the district square. Being the oldest had its draw backs one being having more responsibility and having to run more errands. Kerrick couldn't spend too much time. It can't hurt to walk with her. "Well I am heading that way why don't we walk together. I could use some company." Kerrick faced her his confidence evident in his stature. The heavy rain had turned into a drizzle and the raindrops pushed his hair back onto his forehead. He was a mess but his looks had never been important to Kerrick.
