she needed to think.

about what? well, a lot of things.. most of which were about school. no, tawni williams wasn't exactly a nerd, but she wasn't a badass either. she cared about her grades and how high they were for her college application, what kind of job that she got that would support her all alone for a while.. yeah, she looked in the future a lot. she always worried about the future, her thoughts usually on what she was going to do after school or if she would ever marry or something.. she was very paranoid about things like that, fearing that if she was not prepared, she would end up homeless and helpless on the streets, the only money she made from people's charity out of their pockets. she shook her head and pushed those thoughts from her mind, looking out to the dawning sun across the ocean. she let a small sigh escape her lips, pursing them momentarily as her blonde hair flew into her face. the pre-morning breeze.. she had to love it. tawni was usually out at the beach this early, when no one else was, so she could think about things without having peoples' chatter or whatever distract her.

and then her thoughts went to him.

as usual, she reminded herself with a small, almost sad smile. william renfro. the boy of her dreams -- but, of course, he most likely had no clue who she was. sure, she was best friends with carson owens, who was a slightly-popular senior, but she never had attempted to talk to the boy. well, she had -- when she was a freshman and he was a sophomore. but he had blown her off, laughing when she had walked off with his friends about how stupid and innocent freshmen were. okay, so tawni was still as innocent as she was back then, but that didn't mean that she was going to be naive enough to actually try and talk to him again. she wasn't his type, anyways -- he was daring, and brave, and outgoing. while she was, well, shy, reserved, and basically a bookworm. sure, she had a guitar and piano and knew how to play them and wrote songs, but how good were those things when no one at school knew or didn't care enough to know? it wouldn't change anything between her and william if she'd told everyone that she was a musician. in fact, they'd probably all laugh in her face.

including him.

biting her bottom lip, tawni bent down and picked up a pebble. she inspected it closely but quickly with her eyes, deemed it okay, and shot it out across the ocean's water. it bounced around five times before sinking into the water with a quiet 'plunk', and she narrowed her eyes against the sun's rays as it slowly lifted higher into the sky; pink, orange, yellow, purple and blue reflecting across everything in it's path. her hair shone brilliantly against the colors, and she moved a few more paces to her right before plopping down in the soft sand and fisting a load of some, the grains slowly falling through her fingers and back onto the ground.

"I watched the proverbial sunrise, coming up of the pacific..."

So he wasn't the happiest person today.. He wasn't the most attractive person today... His face hurt like hell... After Jay socked him, it was discovered he'd had a broken nose... they reset it, and put one of those dumb looking things on his nose... He looked like an idiot.. He felt even worse: he'd pissed Jayden off so badly, and this was the outcome.. Well it was his fault.. He deserved it. Stuffing his hands into the pockets of his shorts, he kicked at a rock, watching it dumbly land into a soft bed of sand... Okay.. beach.. He'd not thought about where he was going much, but I guess in the back of his mind, he knew.. He needed to do some thinking.. Lots of it.
Sighing inwardly, he took the first step onto the sand, and was surprised with the cooler night they'd had, that it was still warm.. It was comforting.. His mother always said when you're having a problem, the ocean can be your best friend... It was a decent day outside, but the sunrise was gorgeous... The colors amplified the sky to a million degrees higher than anything he'd ever seen before.. The pink... the purple.. It was amazing.. and then he thought about it.. Why was he worried about everything else in the world when god gave people things like this to see?

He shrugged mostly to himself, and then kept walking..

The sound of a rock hitting the water caught his attention, and he stopped in his aimless stroll to look down... The blonde hair snapped his attention to her, though she was facing the ocean as he was... He blinked.. Oh man... Now his day was ruined.. Horribly ruined.. He thought back to the last time he'd seen her hair...

"Hey.. uh.. check it out.." Will looked over at Eric when he pointed.. Oh crap.. Freshman girls.. "uh.. Excuse me.." was the only voice that reached his ears... The blonde one was speaking.. He had just gotten out of his freshman lockdown, and was proud of it too... "Yeah?" he asked, putting on a buff facade to keep from looking like an idiot.. She looked scared to death to even be addressing him.. "I saw you over here.. I was going to ask.. are you Will Renfro?" Yeah.. everyone knew him.. He was a shoe in for football.. Jayden was smiling at her.. Classmates? "Yeah.. who wants to know..." She stared at him, getting more fearful by the minute.. "uh.. I'm Tawny...I wanted to know if you could... study with me.." Oh yeah.. He had her in class!

With a sneer, he knew his answer.. "Nah.. I'm sorry.. I don't associate with Freshman.. I gotta go to practise anyways.." Jayden stared at him like he was shocked.. When she stalked away carefully with her friend, and Carson, Eric and Jay both slugged his arms.. "Dude!" was all he heard.. He waved a hand, and off he went.. The last one there was Jayden, who shook his head, and followed, tossing Tawny one last look....

Will hated himself for being an asshole back then.. And he really, truly was one..

Reaching a point in his thoughts, where he decided it was better to make up for it now, and be nice then to go on wishing he'd not been an asshole was better for his health. Besides.. Shortly after that, she grew up into some beautiful young woman, and he had to admit she was attractive.. he did have a crush on her, but nothing he was going to go out on a limb for.. Walking slowly towards her, he stopped, and then sat down beside her... Blinking, he pulled his knees up to his chest, and inhaled.. here goes nothing..

"Goodmorning... Tawny.. It's really early. Why are you out here alone?"

her thoughts went to rockee.

her cat; and her best friend, as sad as it sounded. and, well, was. sure, carson was pretty close to tawny too -- but the only person, or, rather, thing that she told everything to was her cat who was still alive after ten years of living. tawni was happy about it; she didn't know what she'd do without rockee. she was so close to her heart and she had seen every high and every low of tawni's life that she didn't know if she could ever confide in anyone as much as she did with rockee. she let a soft sigh pass through her lips, leaning back onto her hands as she regarded the sunset with an earnest curiousity for it's natural beauty. little did anyone know, tawni also drew -- and she made a mental note just then to come the next day in the morning and draw it as best as she could. something this magnificent had just caught her attention, and she scolded herself for not noticing it earlier. after all, she had been coming to the beach for the past year, every day before school started. minus the fact that it was a saturday this morning..

the movement next to her made her jump.

"aah," she muttered sarcastically, and looked at the person who'd sat next to her, her hazel eyes widening at the sight. she blinked rapidly, probably looking like she had gotten sand in her eye, trying to figure out if she was dreaming or not. she turned away from him and pinched herself, then yelped and rubbed her arm. "nope," she whispered to herself, turning back to him. tawni studdied him carefully, her eyes narrowing at the thought of what he'd said to her back in her freshman year. he spoke and she tensed, waiting for the blow. but it never came. she nibbled on her lip and processed his words, looking down at the sand. "i could ask you the same question, william. besides.. i thought you didn't associate with those under you." she said, her voice lowering with her low self-esteem and confidence every word. when she was finished, it was a mere whisper, and she hunched over, her hair falling into her eyes. yeah, only william renfro made her this self-concious.

He pouted, and then yelped in pain as it twitched his nose the wrong way.. "What.. gahh.. no.. I'm not the same asshole I was a few years ago.. Or I thought I wasn't..." He reached up to touch his broken nose, which was a reminder of why he should keep his mouth shut more often. Tossing her a sideways glance, he blinked.. "I'm actually out here because I was an asshole to my brother, and my face hurts... so I went for a self-demeaning walk of shame..." He nodded at that..

Good enough answer.

Dropping his legs in a wide v in front of him, he let his arms rest between his legs, leaning forward and slumped... He blinked, his vision slightly complicated since the swelling... but it had gone down.. he could see his feet now... He looked over at her, wondering why she hated him, and then he shut himself up.. He knew why.. It was that time he was rude to her... She held a grudge this long? That was nearly four years ago.. He shook his thoughts away, though it was barely noticable.. Well he guessed he deserved that too.. He had been an asshole... undeservingly to her, at that... All she wanted to have was a study partner..

He didn't deserve to even talk to her, right now... He was a peice of crap, period.

He was a jerk to his brother... a jerk to her, who he now had a crush on.. He was a jerk to a lot of people back then, and strangely enough, he was still paying the consequences for it.. He sighed inwardly, his eyes flicking to the sky... It was the one thing he didn't have to strain to see, it being so huge.. He nodded.. It was great.. now if life around him could match.

what was wrong with his nose?

tawni turned her head to look at him, taking in his injured nose and shook her head in disappointment, sighing. looks like another one of those jock fights. "what the hell did you fight about now?" she asked, her tone annoyed. she had seen a few jock brawls going on -all of them for completely idiotic reasons-, but never expected that william was one of those boys. seems like she was wrong about him more, the more she tried to associate with him. which wasn't much, but.. she raised an eyebrow when he mentioned that the injury was from a fight with his brother and blinked at him. "i thought you and your brothers didn't fight." she paused, then added, "like.. physically. meaning, break eachother's noses." she said quickly, her mind whirling in confusion. she never knew why she was always wondering what was going on in will's head, why she was still interested romantically in him when he'd hurt her a few years back. she didn't know why she always got so caught up in everything he was doing; whether it be a football game and she'd go to watch him warmup or wonder so much about him. he was just a boy, afterall. an amazingly good-looking, asshole-ish boy. god, she was fucked up in the mind.

"so," she started when an awkward silence had fallen over the two of them, her toes twitching. she ran her fingers through her blonde locks and pushed herself to stand, brushing off the sand from her outfit. she held out a hand to him and motioned to the ocean, a little smile on the corners of her lips. "have you ever tried to swim in the water this early?" she laughed at her own question; the sound melodic and soothing. "come, i'll show you." she grasped his hand, her dark eyes boring down into his. almost instantly she was pulled in by the magnetic force of the attraction she felt to him, biting softly on her bottom lip as she paused, frozen in place. tawni wanted to kiss him so bad, but.. she didn't want to be rejected. again. "uhm.." she murmured awkwardly.

Will blinked, his dark eyes following her as she spoke.. even when she was just asking a question, it stung.. Well he guessed he deserved that as well. He sighed.. Waving his hand past his face, he grumbled.. "uh .. I teased Jay about.. uh.. his romance with Morgan, but I didn't know about it.. being real.. and he slugged me.. I didn't realize it was such a soft spot, or I'd have shut up earlier.." He so deserved the punch Jayden had epically delivered a few days ago.. He blinked at the silence, thinking about how he'd have done things differently, the last few years.. He'd keep from being an ass to everyone, he'd be wiser about his decisions.. and he'd definately not fool around with girls and their emotions.. Definately not Jay's either..

When she stood up, he immediately scrambled to follow her, thinking she was going to leave, but instead, she asked him another question.. "Wah.. It's gotta be freezing in there.. are you insane?" Before he had time to mutter anything else to save his physical limits, she was pulling him along towards the water, which as he got closer, appeared even colder than it probably was.. "oh.. man.." He stopped, and looked at her.. "I'm uh.. I don't wanna just.. jump in.. wait.. and not in this.." He looked down at his shorts, and his teeshirt, and sighed.. "Well, no shirt and shoes.." Reaching for his shoes, he untied them, and then reached for the hem of his shirt, slowly pulling it over his nose to prevent further pain.. Stretching, he sighed.. "Okay.. if you must continue dragging me.. fine.. do so.." he met her gaze, and slowly finished his sentence, a crooked grin crossing his face, though he minorly winced at the pain as it pulled his nose..

Just a sour end of the deal, he guessed.. God she was beauitful..

oh, so it was about morgan..

tawni had talked to the brunette a few times. she was nice, overall. a very sweet girl. but very daring -- she knew that. she had heard of morgan getting detentions and suspended multiple times from multiple schools until she got expelled from the schools. and ended up here, which was amusing because her best guy friends from childhood happened to be coming to this school. tawni didn't know that jayden, will's little brother, had a thing for her.. but whatever went, right? now that she thought about it, they were a cute couple. young, but cute. she nodded at his explanation of why he had a broken nose and opened her mouth, then paused. the question would be rude.. but to hell with it. this was will. she doubted he'd mind if she was rude; he himself was rude.. atleast from what she could remember. "so, what did you say to make him so.. angry, exactly?" she had hesitated with her word choice, trying to describe how nasty his nose looked. jayden must've been really angry to hit that hard; and that was also coming from someone who didn't really show violence towards others. she sighed, wrapping her arms around her legs and holding them to her chest as she gazed at him. it was almost impossible to tear her eyes away from his beautiful face, even if it was bruised and broken. he was perfection to her.. she wondered if this was what being in love was like.

did he find her perfect?

tawni doubted it. he'd teased her for being a freshmen a few years back, why would he think she was perfect, or attractive in any way? she was a shy, reserved book-worm who followed the rules and did her homework on time. she was the nerd; the smart one who stupid kids were paired up with and she ended up doing all the work. it had happened more than once; she knew how the teachers' minds worked. biting her lip, she turned her gaze away from him before it became a weird, stalkerish stare and looked out to the rising sun, her eyes squinting from the immense amount of light coming from it. beautiful, but deadly. sometimes tawni wished she could be the sun.. so outgoing, so bright, so full of life. she'd hardly been anywhere near that since her grandparents died. their deaths had shattered her heart; after that, she just.. didn't really know how to have fun, how to life or move on. she was close with those special people, and everytime she thought about them she was instantly depressed. well, she was depressed anyways, no use in thinking about them more than needed, she reminded herself with a small sigh. she doubted william heard the sadness behind it.

okay, so he completely ignored her staring.. that was good.

or was it? tawni asked herself, nibbling on her lip. she didn't want him to know about her insane crush for him; afraid that he'd reject her again -- that he'd laugh at her for being so naively stupid and that he didn't "go" for juniors. but in the back of her mind, she just wanted him to know. a crush lasting four years and not telling the person or being able to show it in the smallest of ways could drive a person crazy -- it drove her crazy. it was like loving a celebrity and never being able to meet them; that distance between the two of them was always stabbing tawni's heart, reminding herself that she wasn't will's type, that he wasn't even remotely interested in her. not as a friend, and definitely not as a girlfriend. it hurt, but it was life. she learnt to deal with it, even if she didn't like it. a small smirk curved her lips upwards as he whined and complained about how cold the water probably was and she rolled her dark eyes. "i don't care." i'm too numb inside to care, she thought, then whisked the thought away before it slipped accidentally through her lips. "look, it won't be as bad as you think," she insisted, nudging him to the water. he took off his shirt and she choked, starting to cough. her face turning beet red, she finally regained her breath and hoped he didn't notice the reason why she had choked. "look, just--" she trailed off and pushed him in the water gently, trying to make sure that he didn't hurt his nose or anything. inhaling, tawni went in aswell, soaking herself completely underwater until she rised to the surface, laughing and shivering a little. "okay, so maybe it is a little-" what an understatement, "-cold." she swam further in and relaxed as she slowly got used to the chilly temperature of the water.

His fear of the water hit him so hard, he panicked.. The run of water going up into his shorts made him yell out in shock and disgust.. Every inch of his manhood felt like it'd jumped back up into his guts, keeping itself safe from the freezing water.. he wished he could do that, but then, where would he "hide"? He stared at her, watching her dive in, and trembled to himself for a moment.. "Crazy.. insane.. OHH!' She came back up, and he shut his mouth off, not wanting to sound like he was being rude.. no, he was just coming up with words for himself.. He didn't have the capicity to understand why he'd let her push him in, especially now, with his body slowly entering frozen mode.. He blinked at her, and nodded, laughing.. Wrapping his arms around his upper body, he shivered.. "So.. uh.. you just randomly jump into cold water, and then decide while you're getting hypothermia, that it's cold?" His teeth were chattering while he spoke..

If that was one thing he hated, it was being cold.. Oh.. he still had to answer her questions.. "I was joking, because I didn't know they were together, about how I was going to take her out to dinner, and kiss her, and such.. but it was just to see what he'd do.. now I know.. I didn't really thing he'd get that mad.. usually he just bows up and grumbles.. and that's that.. I never thought he'd hit me.. that hard.. it felt like running into a wall, full speed.." He groaned at the memory of the brainsplitting pain, and then looked over at Tawny.. "It's the most.. horrible, excruciating pain in the world.. you don't want to feel it.." He shook his head.. He'd break up with 500 girls before he did that again, and that was saying something... Will hated breaking up with girls... especially when he liked them a lot..

He pouted at that thought, and then looked over at Tawny.. Was that why he was sitting in the water, letting his manhood freeze off, when he could have easily been a jerk, and got out, leaving her in there.. He blinked slowly, and then kept his eyes on her.. He wasn't sure what he was doing, but before he figured it out, he was already moving towards her.. He stopped next to her, and inhaled.. "You know.. I uh.. I have to say.. you're one of the craziest people I know... but.. I like it.. It's.. a releif.. compared to all the serious tight asses around here.." He nodded, and then shivered again.. "Maybe.. we should get out.. so we can.. warm up.." Holding out his hand, he waited for her to take it.. "You know.. the survival guide I have says if you're with a person, to huddle for warmth.. That is.. if I'm not too big an asshole for you to consider that.." he blinked slowly, and then swallowed.. Fear? Yes..
