((Private, as its happening in Mike's car...)) You've got this new head filled up with smoke I've got my veins all tangled close To the jukebox bars you frequent The safest place to hide A long night spent with your most obvious weaknesses You start shaking at the thought You are everything I want '...

There was way too much going on for Kaitlin to handle. Three other kids from her school had arrived- two had walked past them, one of the ones who walked past parting with something snide towards Frankie. "Can't control yourself"... What a jerk. Kaitlin didn't exactly know what he was talk...

Omar slipped his books into his bag, and as he did so he caught Sierra smiling over at him. So this is what he feels like when you're kind to other people? Perhaps I should try that more often... After all, the girl wasn't that annoying. Hell, sometimes she was even a little... a little cute. "...

Get the weight up. I love the pump. Drop it down, do it slowly. Make sure you keep the right form. You want to get the full benefit of the exercise. Now pull the weight up again. I love the feeling. Heavy weight, low reps. It was the best way to build strength. I love the pain. "Man, seems you ...

((JJ Sturn continued from Vaulting )) I can't escape myself (I can't escape myself) So many times i've tried (So many times i've lied) But there's still rage inside Somebody get me through this nightmare I can't control myself Ah... JJ loved Three Day's Grace. It was amazing workout music- prepackag...

JJ watched as both Justin and Sable performed their own gymnastic routines, both of them far overshadowing Adam's backflip. But honestly, what had the kid expected? As an untrained teenager, trying to beat a gymnast in gymnastics was idiotic, to say the least. Of course, Adam was better than JJ, but...

Omar Burton. 13 years old. He's in 8th grade, and it is Winter break. It's 3 days before Christmas, and Minnesota has just had a relatively large snow storm. Winter. Omar's favorite time of the year. Why was it his favorite? First off, no one was outside, playing sports he was terrible at. Everyone...

Kaitlin watched as William got some napkins and helped her clean up the mess. Together they got rid of it pretty quickly, although the Coke had still left a stain on the floor. Kaitlin had barely finished her meal, but she now found that she wasn't so hungry anymore. She was starting to feel a littl...

"Damn, you guys are making far too big of a deal about this." said JJ, standing up. "The school nurse? She'd slap a band aid on it and tell me to be on my way... and Julian, all I did was slip and hit my knee on this piece of equipment." JJ stood up, and slapped the pommel horse....

Omar watched as Sierra began to get upset, and another girl came over and started yelling at them. Omar wasn't friends with any of the people there, so he had no real feelings regarding the situation. Of course, it was fun to watch the events unfold... something akin to throwing a pebble into a pond...

Omar's head was down and he was busy writing out his homework, but he kept his ears open. It was one of Omar's talents- he always managed to keep up on what was going on around him. Not many people knew about it, though- after all, he was Omar Burton. He was an unknown, a shadow. No one thought much...

"Hey, I've got you." William put his hand out, and Kaitlin took it, letting him help her up. After all, he was a *nice* boy, and it would be rude not to accept his offer of help. "Nothing a few napkins can't fix, right?" "Yeah, you're right." Kaitlin looked up at Willia...

"Hey Kaitlin! Fancy meeting you here, eh? What brings you here today?" When Kaitlin heard the voice, she jumped a little bit in her seat. Someone was here who knew her? But that must mean that there was someone here from her school! And they might have had heard about Winston... Kaitlin ga...

((Thread's open to anyone)) McDonald's. Mickey D's, as she had heard some of the kids in school call it. Kaitlin picked up her Big Mac, and took a bite out of it. It wasn't necessarily what most people would call 'gourmet food', but to Kaitlin, it was fantastic. Anything that wasn't her mother's coo...

"Dude, what the fuck? Don't kill yourself!" JJ got to a sitting position, grimacing a little at the pain in his knee. What the hell did they make those horses out of anyway, fucking bricks? Looking up, JJ saw that the voice was coming from Justin, who was standing over JJ. "You all ri...
