Breandan snorted "couldn't mistake it for anyone elses house could ya?" he led the way to the door and opened it stepping in and instantly recoiling at the scent of the incense "gah...that's strong," he mumbled

"Thank you," Holli grinned at Darek. She sighed and tried to think of something to talk about "so, uh, what's your favorite childhood memory?" she asked, truly curious. "Di your brothers ever do stuff with you or...?"

Akira chuckled then entered the room "wow...its pritty bright in hear to....and whats that smell"she said as she continued to walk deeper into the room and looked at the things inside"well...there's really not much hear so lets get started"she smiled.

"umm well i didnt really have any good memories of my childhood...my brother would always bother me and...well when i was little i use to cry alot he use to bother me soo much...i ran away from my house about 8-9 times a year i would either stay at my friends house...but thats really it..."he sighed "but i do remember that one time my mom did take me out of the house when i was 5 and we went to the theme park...it was nice i think thats the only thing i liked about my child hood."

Breandan nodded "the smell's incense. Anyway, let's do start." The house was indeed basic. Instead of an actual couch Holli just had old couch cushions and her TV was just sitting on the floor in front of them. The DVD player sat on one side of the TV while the VCR (because Holli's cool enough to have a VCR ^^) sat on the other side. There were DVDs piled behind the DVD player and VHS's piled behind the VCR. Breandan motioned to a partly open door "why don't you start on her bedroom?" (Basically her bedroom is a mattress on the floor and a small plastic thing with drawers. The only 'furniture' is two wall length bookcases full of DVDs, CDs, VHS and books ^^)

"That's cool...about your mom...I dunno...I don't think anything's wrong with crying. Just means you're sensitive. Sensitive is good because it means you care," she smiled a little at Darek the put down what she was doing and wrapped her arms around Darek and gently rested her ear against his chest

"sure thats fine..."then once she looked at Hollie's room "wow...this is sure going to be easy"she sighed "alright would you like me to help you with the bed or should i just grab the other things"she asked curiously

Darek smiled and kissed the top of her head "really you think so"he said putting his arms around her hugging her gently.

Breandan shrugged "just clear out her room, I'll clear out the living room, it'll go faster if we each just take one room..."

"I do think that...Society claims guys are only really men if they're complete jerks, put each other down for fun and like sex jokes, doesn't make sense to me. I like sensitive because those are the guys that'll actually love you." she chuckled "Breandan, my boss, he tries to be a tough guy but he's such a sweetheart...You're better, just to be around and I kinda like you more but poor Brean, he just doesn't know what to do..." she laughed then looked up at Darek, slowly getting on her toes and pecking him on the lips before going back to just flat-footed. She buried her face in his chest to hide her blush and closed her eyes tight, not understanding why she'd done that.

Akira nodded "alright then"she said picking up some things and started putting in the car.

Darek turned a bright pink when she kissed her then picked up her head and kissed her softly."thanks"he smiled softly then hugged her closly

((sorry if its soo short im about to leave somewhere ^^;; ))

Breandan gently placed her TV and other electronic into the back of his truck and then just kept tossing stuff in. When he was done he walked into her bedroom "do you need some help?" he asked Akira

Hollister felt her whole face turn red when he kissed her, and probably even some of her neck. She hugged him back and once again hid her face

((no problem. I just got back from a trip so...))

Akira looked up and blush "yea i kinda need help with the bed" she sighed trying to pick up the bed

Darek smiled then slowly lets go "alright lets finish up with the food alright"he said with a flushed face trying to calm down his racing heart.

Breandan shrugged shrugged "okay, count of 3," then he counted to three and picked up the mattress, waiting for Akira to be ready to start moving it.

"Oh, uh, yeah, of course," Holli pulled away and went back to making the hummus and tabuli (SP?)

Akira nodded "alright 1...2...3!"she lifted it up and started carrying the bed

Darek smiled then sat up on the counter watching Hollie making the food

BReandan somehow magically got it thorugh the doorway (?) and threw it in his truck. "We better go, and empty out the truck, wn't hold much more," he commented, strapping the stuff in and climbed into the front.

Holli turned around "would you mind going to the sotre adn buying pita bread. I could make some but it's take a while so..." she raised an eyebrow, waiting for Darek's answer

"alright then lets go"she said getting into the car.

"sure thats fine with me...umm ill be back very soon alright"he smiled then kissed her cheek 'dont make a mess alright"he smiled softly then ran off towards the door and got into his car and drove off to the market

Breandan followed and got into the cab of the truck, driving to his house. He climbed into the bck. "How bout i push the mattress out, you get your side, then i take my side and we take it in?" Breandan offered to Akira

Once Darek had left Holli slid down to the floor and hid her face in her hands. She couldn't believe she had kissed someone she had just met the same day. He seemed really sweet and she like him but...She blushed deep scarlet again as she thought of the fact that that was the first time she had kissed someone willingly.

"alright that sounds fair to me"she said hopping out of the car and started untieing the strings then headed towards the back "alright im ready!"she said putting her thumb up in the air.

Darek got out of the car and started heading towards the market and headed into the bread aisle and saw a bunch of girls staring at him and commenting him on how he lood.but for him he didnt really care he was just wondering how Hollie was doing and how sweet and quarky she is.He then blushed slightly and grabbed the bread and headed towards the cashier and bought the bread.Then headed towards the car and drove back home.

Breandan gently pushed it so that it would be easy for Akira to get a hold of. When she had he jumped down and grabbed the other end. Once again he got it through the doors and led Akira to a room. He paused, letting the mattress rest on the ground for a second and pulled out some keys. He chose one and opened the door after unlocking it. He picked up the mattress and carried it in, gently laying his half down at the top of a bed the same size but which was covered by a white sheet. In reality everything was covered with white sheets. There was a couch in one corner and every picture hanging was hidden by them. The wall was a pretty bright blue on two walls and just a shade darker the other two. The ceiling was painted black with white spots and glow-in-the-dark stars in the shapes of constellations. He paused, glancing around the room with a slight frown.

Holli closed her eyes and rested the side of her head on her knees. She didn't hear Darek driving up because of her music and so stayed in the same position, eyes closed and head on knees while her blush faded to a soft pink only on her cheeks.

"aww this is room is soo cute"she smiled then looked over at Breandon 'hey whats wrong"

Darek then entered the house and walked into the room to see Hollie sleeping on the floor.He smiled softly then placed the pita bread on the counter and bent down right infront of Hollie and watched her sleep just a few more seconds before he waked her up but instead of waking her up he picked her up into his arms and carried her towards the living room and layed her donw on the couch

Breandan just muttered something and stormed out of the room to get some more stuff out of the truck. When he came back he set it down carefully and as he stood up a white sheet covering a small end table. Sitting on the table was a picture of a lady with messy layered hair with alternating streaks of whtie blonde, black, and hot pink in it. She had one bright blue eye and one bright green and she was grinning. Her clothes were interesting, modest but definitely alternative. Black and white checkered slip-on Vans were partially hidden by teal skinny jeans. Her shirt was a band shirt for 'Tiger Army' which was layered with a teal, green, blue and yellow plaid cami under it. Her wrists were partially hidden by yellow and white striped large thick bangles on one wrist and multiple bracelets that resembled friendship bracelets on the other and one hand was thrown in an almost mocking, but friendly, way around an almost grinning Breandan's shoulders. Upon seeing the picture Breandan frowned deeper and hit the back of it and it hit the top of the table, facve down, with a thunk. He looked away, refusing to look at anything as he closed his eyes tightly

Holli mumbled something and woke up as Darek layed her on the couch. She realized he had come home and she jumped up, dashing into the kitchen. "I'm sorry! I was just thinking and i guess i was more tired then i thought i was...where's the table? I'll just finish the hummus really really quick, there's only one more thing i have to do..." she started working again as her blush refused to leave her cheeks.

Akira looked at the picture wondering if that was his girlfriend but then looked over at Breandon.She then crouched down infront of him "whats wrong Breandon...did something happen...tell me please..."she said softly with a worried look on her face

Darek blinked when she just dissapeared out of his hand then looked back at the kitchen and chuckled.he then walked towards Hollie and kissed her cheek "its ok i just came back....calm down"he whispered softly in her ear.

"It's...her..." Breandan seemed to be trying hard to not start screaming his head off. His eyes were pained and soon he closed them to hide that "I...killed...her...she was so pretty...and i ruined it...I ruined it for the world...."

Holli blushed and looked away. "Yeah...uh..." she felt shiver makeit's way up her spine when he whispered

Akira thne hugged him tightly "its okay...calm down....i know its hard alright....."

Darek smirked then slowly moved back and sat up on the counter table watchng Hollie cook

Breandan pulled away fromthe hug and stumbled up, stomping out to get more stuff and put it in the room. He refused to look at Akira, not willing to admit to anyone that the room was just as it had been the day he killed her. He hadn't changed anything except to throw white sheets over everything so that nothing would get dusty or gross.

Once Hollister finished she grabbed everything and set it out on the table "uhm...plates and forks?" she asked

Darek jumped off the counter and grabbed the forks abd plates then set them up on the table "here you go"he smiled softly then sat town waiting for Hollie to join him.

Akira saw him get up and walk away then sighed and got up and headed towards the door.not sure of what to say she just stood there and waited for him to say something.

Holli sat down next to him with a grin "It's weird, i keep having these mood-swings today..." she chuckled and shrugged "I dunno...sad, hen embarassed and now happy again," she shrugged, somewhat unsure.

Breandan frowned at Akira "what?" he snapped, too upset to reall think about why she wasn't helping move stuff

Akira jumped a bit when he snapped "ohh jut..its nothing"she looked at the floor then back at him.

"your emotions are going wild arnt they"he smiled then served her some of the food on her plate then served some for himself.

"then help," Breandan grumbled and stormed back outside with a glare at Akira

"mmhmm," Holli nodded and tore the pita bread in half and put some tabuli and hummus into one half then took a bite.
