"I'm okay though a bit off balance as of late I suppose," he said to Cove thinking over the last few days. He leaned back and closed his eyes for a moment just relaxing and said, "Rain's birthday is today. I have a cake and made some food. I was thinking we could all have a little party. Do you think you would like to come?"
|
"I hope i didn't upset him." She said absently. Turning her attention back to rain.
|
Cove thought about it for a moment, "M-maybe.." He was really sure if he was ready to leave his apartment again yet. "When is it today?" His eyes glanced over at his door, then back at Santo.
|
Santo could hear the uncertainty in his voice and said, "From the sounds of it not till later. The girls are having girl time." Santo wanted to ask Cove what was going on but he wondered if he was getting too involved with everyone here. Being nosy wasn't really a trait of his and he did not want to make it one.
|
"Yeah. Sure. I guess so...then." Cove slid his legs underneath him, sitting Indian style. "So what else is going on in the outside world today?" His eye were now fixed on his guitar case on the floor across from him.
|
"I'm glad you'll be able to make it. Hmm the outside. . not really sure. I've really been paying attention to be honest," he said lightly to him. Santo noticed where his gaze went and said, "That's right you were going to play for me. Do you want to now?"
|
Cove smiled, "Yeah I played a song to warm up a bit." He stood up, pulling the guitar from the case and the pick of of the table. "You wanna hear a slow one or a fast one?" His fingers strumed the guitar with the pick, thinking of a few songs he could still remember how to play.
|
Santo said, "Play what ever comes to you." He wanted to hear the guitar and really he didn't mind what song he played. It would be nice to hear his talent. Santo was relaxing a bit and just enjoying sitting with another person and hanging out.
|
Rain smiled. "I'm sure you didn't. I don't think Santo would get upset so easily especially over something like girl time. We need our time too right?" And of course Santo wouldn't get mad at Kitty. Rain was grateful Kitty had responded no before she could say yes. She didn't want him walking in when they were both red-eyed and messed up like that. And if he saw what she was wearing, he'd have a heart attack. So much for my birthday wish. "And about the crying on my birthday.. It's fine, I'm used to it. I'm glad it wasn't just me this time. For my last five or so birthdays I sat crying in a corner while Jorge got doped up." Rain grimaced at the memories.
|
"don't think about that." She repremanded, "She dab dried Rain's face, then started with a perfect matching spray foundation. Then was using plenty of colors and shimmers, no glitter. She stood back to admire her handy work, "Now for a decal, unless you don't want one." She was thinking a nice swirl with a red boarder, or something.
|
Rain had promised not to peek, so she squinted and said, "Whatever you want to do is fine with me, Kitty."
[[Blah my friend Derrick wants to get on so I'll be back in a few.]] |
"This song seems to always be playing in my head..." His fingers started playing cords before he started singing. "For the longest time I thought I'd lost the best of me. But I'll be damned if I quit now and that's for sure." His eyes closed, moving to sit as he did before he got up. "All I ever wanted was for you to look at me and know I'm all yours. Like the penguins need their wings for deep cold water dives. Like the earth needs the moon to keep it on course. When you touch me, I know there is purpose in my life. Just know I'm all yours.." He fingers felt more comfortable playing now, his eyes opened looking over at Santo, before he looked down at the guitar watching his fingers.
His voide grew a bit louder as he sang the next , "I'm a mess, I confess that I'm nothing without you. And there is nothing I can do to prove to you I'm being honest. Now I see, everything; and yes I've known it all along. I was so lost, but I'm back and I finally know now where my heart belongs." His voice went soft again. Cove looked over at the table, back at Santo, then down at his fingers. "I've been wondering if you could ever realize. That we're growing up so fast, and it's insane. My dear our hearts have gotten good at pumping cheap new lust, Into our young veins..." |
(ok)
Kitty took out a black makeup pencil, and created a swirling branch coming from the right eye, she morned a moment the loss of that eye. She then lifted the deep red powder, and dusted around the branch, then picked up a small tool looking similar to a black leaf, she pushed it lightly and the ink marked Rains face. She stood back and looked at her not quite finished hair. She pulled out a small box from in her makup kit, and pulled out her ruby and onix comb, a gift from a friend when she got married to Testu. She Looked at the curling hair that shone and had a few peices of braid making a shape like a crown on her head. She took the comb, it had long dangels and a white fan peice on it too, and placed it carefully into Rain's hair, the gems shown on her head, the dangels brought out everything she hoped they would. Even if she wasn't happy, Rain glowed with youth and her asian culture with that one pin. She thought of putting on some makeup herself but wasn't sure. She shrugged, "You can look now." |
(( sorry well went out and had to run and get the water supplies))
Santo listened to the music and to the words taking it all in. He liked it a lot and knew Cove had real talent. Santo looked at him and said to Cove seriously, "You are very talented Cove. Thank you for that it was nice to listen to, very enjoyable. You really should try to get back into the music industry." |
Rain eagerly grabbed the mirror, looking. She gasped. "Kitty! I-I.. I love it! You made me look so..." She leaned over and hugged Kitty. "I could do yours, if you want me to?" She smiled. It was the least she could do, Kitty had made her look like a damn princess.
|
((Going to bed, please don't make me read 8 pages tomorrow ;_; ))
|
((sorry i'll try not to))
"Ok but i need not be a belle." She smiled, "you may use what is in the kit, oh wait a minute." She pulled out another box. "I think hal got me this for christmas last year saying, all smart like, You'll need it one day." She opened it to reveal a white eye patch. She carefully removed the bandages and placed the half mask eye patch, "There now it's not so bulky." She giggled, "That mans sense of humor comes in handy." She was very proud of hal, and it beamed off her face. She felt weird with it on but oh well it'll look better with her dress and it had gauze on the back side that was removable. She chuckled quietly. "So milady what do you want to do to me?" |

Cove smiled, "Thanks. And you're welcome. I wish I could remember the rest.." He he placed his guitar on the table. "Well, the words I do..just not the cords." The he just shrugged it off, leaning back against the couch. "Hmm, I should prolly change into something other than my pajamas..I'll be right back." Standing up, he walked to his bedroom. He changed into a pair of tight white pants along with a white v-neck. Walking out of his room, he had his purple hoodie on as well. In his hands were a pair of white slip-ons, and his favorit black beanie. Cove sat back down on the couch, resting his head back. "Maybe. I'll see how song writing goes before I try." He smiled again, playing with the purple guitar pick in his hands. |
Santo sat back in the comfy chair and just enjoyed the moment. When Cove went to change Santo's mind wandered to different things. He half wondered what his brother would think of him right now. He let out a small sigh. The others were not the only ones trying to get away from something. Santo had many reasons he was here.
When Cove came back in it snapped him back out of his thoughts. He smiled and said, "Nice clothes." It wasn't his style but he appreciated the other peoples styles. "Yeah that sounds like a plan. Santo smiled back and said, "So how long have you played guitar?" |
Rain smirked. "I was going to play up your.. er, eye. You have good skin for your age, not many wrinkles and you take care of it. I could do a flower or a skull or Japanese Kanji under your eyepatch there, to make it look like you're some kind of awesome pirate." She laughed, and dashed into her room, grabbing her portfolio of small things that she could draw on people's faces, which was exactly what it was. Some people wanted things on their paintings and drawings, so she kept this handy. She handed it to Kitty. "Anything on the first page would look nice. As far as Japanese, I'll write something short like 'Love' or something along those lines, even your name, though it would say 'Cat' and not 'Kitty.'"
|
Cove dropped his shoes onto the floor, "Ha, thanks." He thought for a moment, "Since I waaas nine. My uncle played, and we use to see him a lot on vacations before he died. I spent the summer there and he thought me." He pulled the beanie halfway onto his head, like how those girls wore those knitted berets. Or like how people with dreadlocks wore them. "He was amazing. One of the top reasons why I started the band with my friends. I wanted to share what he taught me and I wanted to make him proud. Thats all I ever wanted."
|
Kitty chuckled, "I would be a very sexy pirate, I'd have to go put on my fishnets and boots that fall an inch below this skirt, The HEart shaped neckline and ruffles on this dress are a bit much for a pirate. No i'm 30 i should stick to some light makeup, maybe a jeweltoned Eyeliner, but I'm not the cosmotologist am I right now?" She raised her eye brows, "ow. got to stop doing that, i'll rip that stitch out."
|
Santo smiled at Cove as he talked. That was a good story and inspiring as well. He said to him, "That seems like a great way to that. I'm sorry the band went in the wrong direction. The feelings you put in to it were pure though and I think your uncle knows that as well."
|
Rain giggled and took the binder from Kitty, setting it next to her. "Same with you, no peeking!" Rain stuck to light makeup like Kitty had wanted, and just for fun added eyeliner and made a cute swirl at the end of one eye. It wasn't that big, and if Kitty didn't like it she would fix it. She put Kitty's hair in a bun, and left a few strands down. She looked gorgeous, as always, with her cute ears sticking out. She grabbed them and felt them and pulled back, handing her the mirror. "Sorry. Always wanted to feel them. So...? Too much?"
