Brushing damp strands of hair wet with beads of sweat out of her vision, she tucked her bangs behind her ear slowly while looking at her reflection visible from the window of the store. She had been standing there for almost 5 minutes just looking at herself, noticing things that she normally didn’t have time to when getting ready for school. An example being her eyebrows. Never before had she realized that she had the ability to raise one eyebrow in an almost seductive manner. She bit her flushed pink bottom lip softly trying to look innocent, and then switched it up by placing a sly smirk upon her lips, winking to herself. What had started as assuring herself that she didn’t look ridiculous, had turned into a game, one which she could seemingly entertain herself for hours at a time playing. Yes, it was a fairly vain game, but sometimes Amanda could be a vain person.
As her eyes slowly scanned down her body, she complimented herself on the outfit she had chosen for that mornings run. A spandex white tank top ending roughly around her belly button adorned her torso and was matched with short light blue running shorts, the waist rolled over twice. Both articles of clothing were of the Nike brand and contained the coveted ‘Just Do It’ check mark. Her feet also adorned white and grey running sneakers of the Nike brand which she had purchased recently. Amanda had been told that white was not the best choice of sneakers because they could become dirty much more easily than other colors, but being not one to follow others advice, she had obtained them anyways. She figured that when they became dirty, she would just get another pair.
The dark auburn hair which she had straitened the night before was held high in a ponytail, the ends softly brushing her back. Three bobby pins were used to resist annoying bumps, and to originally hold up her bangs as she ran. Stroking the top of her head softly, she noticed the texture of her hair allowing a smile to escape her lips. Considering the amount of sweating she had experienced, Amanda was surprised that her hair hadn’t started to frizz or break out into waves-it’s natural state. Either her flat iron had miraculously become much better, or she hadn’t really sweat as much as predicted.
Panting softly, she finalized her session with the window, and finally entered the school store. It was very common for her to go to the store, visiting it almost on a daily basis. Being careless, unprepared, and hungry, Amanda would be nowhere without the small shop which she had memorized the placement of almost every item for sale. The idea of working there had crossed her mind multiple times, but she honestly didn’t need the money and figured there were many better uses of her free time.
Smiling sweetly at the student at register, she made her way to the back of the store-the drink section. Having forgotten to bring a beverage during her 3 mile run, she desperately needed the hydration. Placing her fairly small hands upon the black handle of the door, she slid open the glass, immediately feeling a cool rush of air cloak her body forcing her to shiver and let go. “Dammitt” she mumbled to herself, reaching back for another try. Gatorade or water? If Gatorade, what flavor? ran through the girls mind as she stared blankly at the case full of brightly colored bottles. It was almost as if she experienced a brain lapse and had forgot what she was doing, but she stood the debating to herself the pros and cons of each….for a while.

His demeanor was calm and collected, as he strode down the street, His hands half in his pockets of his abercombie jeans. He was acutally quite bored on his way to school, leaving the dorm the jaune dorm, Until he came upon a girl, staring into the glass, making expressions ar herself. He smiled, finding a couple of them appealing until he strode up to her.
Staring into the glass as she did, and raising his brows.
Having fun? he chuckled, looking at her face, she was veyr pretty, but to be looking in the glass, very amusing, She didn't seem to hear him for she walked into the door of the shop, He followed after her, Smiling, standing behind her as she looked at all the gatorade, he put his head next to her cheek.
The red is better.. he said, leaning down to pick one out for himself. He stood again,
You seem to get amusment staring into window pane's... Quite interesting, though I dont see why you wouldn't you have such a pretty face. he said, his flirtatious manor already starting to peak out. He walked up to the register, handing the clerk a ten,
This is paying for me, and whichever flavor that little miss picks out, He said, chuckling to himself, heading to the back of the store again,
You go to parson's, I assume? He asked, leaning against one of the shelves.
Levi still was trying to make a good time out of coming here, thinking of all the pros to it, instead of its cons, like, he was away form his parents, but his little sister aswell, he figured she'd fair well without him anyway. But that didn't mean he wouldn't miss her.
But he was tired of his father ignoring him, and only talking to him to order him to do things, Take the trash out, clean the kitchen. Always something that Levi really didn't feel like doing, but, meeting a pretty girl here, was just what he was hoping for.

She seemed to be almost in a trance staring at the bottles, but not to worry, the presence and voice of a boy around her age forced her out. You seem to get amusement staring into window pane's the girl heard him say not minding to turn and look at him. “And you seem to find amusement in picking bad Gatorade flavors” she reached her hand into the cold refrigerator type thing taking out an orange Gatorade, “Orange is the best” a small smirk playing on her lips as she shook it a few times. Following not to far behind him to the register, Amanda was flattered when he offered to pay for her drink. Sure, guys bought things for her all of the time, but it never got old. Under normal circumstances though, she would have rejected the offer upon first meeting, but to avoid having to awkwardly get her money out of her shoe, she smiled saying, “You know you don’t have to pay for me, but if you insist”
Giving him the once over as they walked once again towards the back of the store, she decided she had never met him before. And based on his naturally good looks, it was surprising because she knew all of the cute boys around Parsons. All of them.
“Yeah” Amanda replied with a small giggle. At the time it seemed to be a funny questing seeing that it was the Parsons school store, “I go to Parsons, and I’m going to assume that you do to?”. Twisting off the cap of her Gatorade and taking a few sips, she held up the bottle “thanks, by the way”. After all, it was a very nice thing of him to do. Damn she thought to herself, why didn’t I go upstairs and change first. She hated for her first impression to be in workout clothes, even though sports were a huge part of her life. But, if he thought she was cute in sweaty running clothes, then he would have a heart attack when he saw her prepared to go out.
As she leaned against the self opposite his, she stated “I’m Amanda”, bringing her eyes up to meet his while her hands fiddled with the cold bottle which they held.

Levi smiled, She had a sense of humor, thats what he liked. He looked down at her, ....If you insist.
Beleive me hun, I do. He tucked his hands in his pockets, finally he was able to interacte with someone, it had been at least 3 days, while he set up in his dorm and all. He wondered what dorm she was in,
Yeah I do. He stood straight, He could tell she was stressing about her running clothes, he really didn't mind, he often went out running himself, Note his abs and muscular legs. He wore running clothes alot. He smiled, brushing a piece of her hair from her face, his eyes swimming with amusement.
Don't worry 'bout it, I go running all the time. he said, brushing the subject off momentarily.
He could tell something about this girl, and he liked it alot, he really coulnd't tell what it was, or where it was coming from, but he had a strange desire for her, in more ways than one. He looked up at the store clock, it wasn't very late in the morning. He sighed, looking back down at her, she was staring into his eyes, a very, entincing stare it was, captured him with the first glance. He smiled and stared back at Her,
I'm Levi.
He was liking this Amanda more and more, just the way she talked got him excited. he smiled playfully, Offering his arm out to her.
And for the record. Red is the best.

"Wow, I must be psychic or something" she said with a small smile in replying to his confirmation of being a Parson's student. "What dorm are you in? There has to be a legit reason why I've never seen you before" and living far away was possibly one of them. That, or maybe he was new. Once again, she discretely looked him over, deciding for herself that yes, he was cute. "So, what are you, a junior? Senior?" she questioned believing those the only two realistic options. A boy of his looks had to at least be in her grade or older. Wishful thinking also played a part as she held a standard for herself – No younger guys. Why? She didn’t have a real reason, it just seemed to be an unspoken rule. Don’t date your best friends ex, and don’t go out with younger guys.
She still couldn't believe it herself that she was Junior. It seemed as if highschool had flown by. The memories of her first day of freshman year still lingered in her mind. The meeting of new friends, new foes, new lovers. It was all part of the experience, and in less that two years she would be repeating it all in college, and in one year her brother, Luke, would. She was extremely nervous for him to leave her as he seemed to be her 'rock' as some people would say. One of the few steady and down to earth things in her life.
Don't worry 'bout it, I go running all the time
“Worry about what?” Yes, she had been caught feeling guilty about her outfit choice, but being Amanda she was going to play it off like she hadn’t. “I know guys think it’s hot when I run around sweating in, she glanced down at her outfit, vibrant blue running shorts and white tops.” her voice was sarcastic and she looked back at him smirking, “Or, I know you do at least. Even though she had only known him for a few minutes, she was already talking and flirting with him like old friends. That was one of the best things about Amanda, once she thought you were okay, you were in. On the other end, once you got on her bad side-you stayed there. Forever.
She was also very interested in the fact that he ran, although she didn't question him on it. Amanda always found herslef attracted to guys who either played sports, or did something to keep in shape. Physically of course, but just the fact that they shared something in common always led her to be drawn to athletic guys.
Levi, huh? she gladly accepted his arm, “What do you have planned for the rest of the day? I just met this kid, and he seems alright, and I was wondering if he wanted to hang out a little later the girl acted as if she wasn’t talking right to him.
“And your dreaming-orange is the best by far””

I guess you must be. he said, Watching her and smiling. Today was going to be a wonderful day. He listened to her, smiling, She was a junior? Ah, another thing they had in common. He smiled and spoke, Junior. he put his hand to his head, like a fake phsychic often did. He looked back down to her. And my phsychic powers tell me, You are too? he said, his eyes dancing with a flirtatious, playful manner. He wasn't so suprised about being a Junior, it had sunk it, the first week of school, but being at this new Academy, It gave him that feeling again, only slight.
Jaune, You must really be good at this Phsychic thing.. Yeah, Im new, Got here last week. He said, He only slightly missed his old school and old friends, he had been on the Football team, and looked to get on the team here, which he was sure they had one, he'd have to check it out sometime later. Now was hardly the time to do so. He chuckled at her sarcasm. I don't blame them, Whats not to like? he said, speaking the truth, but his words were still flirty, and He enjoyed her sense of humor, That was something a girl had to have with him, a good sense of humor.
He dated different ages, though, hardly any of them being maybe a month or two older than him, most of the times, they were his age, or younger than him, but not too young. He remembered his old girlfriend, things didn't go to well between them, she took things far too seriously and thought alcohol was bad, which was a big turn off for Levi. And thus, he had told her, they couldn't be together anymore.
He smiled down at her as she took his arm, He began towards the exit of the shop, his Gatorade in his other hand. He would drink it later, when he was more thirsty. Funny coincidence. I just met this girl, And she seems pretty fine. I might treat her to lunch, If she's interested. he said, looking at his watch, it was still early, but he was sure she would want to go change, And breakfast at most resturants were ending around this time.

“No way” she gave him a look of total surprise and disbelief, “I’m in Jaune dorm too. I kinda think that your stalking me right about now” Amanda rose her eyebrow and gave him a skeptical look, a trick she had learned earlier while looking in the window. It did seem almost too coincidental that they would both be in the same dorm and same grade, but it did make some sense if he was new.“But it’s okay. I’m flattered,” acting as if she truly believed that he was stalking her even though she was obviously joking.
Looking back on it, Amanda really liked the fact that he was new. That meant she was probably one of the first girls that he had met, and therefore was sloppy seconds to nobody. As she got older, it became increasingly hard to meet guys at school that had no ties with her friends, especially with the very sexually active people that she hung out with. Way too many times she would hookup with somebody and find out that one her best friends had been with them the night before. It was definitely not a fun situation.
Most of the time she felt as if she was just another girl on their "list", and of course she didn’t mind because they were just another guy on hers, but with Levi at least she would be the first girl. That was just the cherry on top; he was already a great guy, or, from what she knew of him so far. He was cute, he was athletic, he shared the same sense of humor as her, and oh yeah, he was cute.
I just met this girl, And she seems pretty fine
”Pretty fine? Common, I bet she was absolutely gorgeous” a smile starting to break out. She just couldn’t seem to hold back when she was around him, there was just something about him that made her want to flash her beautiful smile.“ I also bet that she would love to go to lunch with you. As long as she could go and change first, would you mind calling her later?” she pulled her phone out of a small compartment near her waist in her running shorts. Normally, she didn’t run with her phone, but she had recently found out that it was small enough to fit securely in the pocket, so, why not? She had always believed she would need it for emergencies, but getting guys phone numbers was even better.“This mystery girl, whoever she may be”

He looked down at her, She was in Jaune room too? What were the odds. He smiled broadly, Babe, with a face like yours, Don't see why I wouldn't be stalkin' ya. He chuckled as she mimiced one of the faces she had been making in the glass just minuetes before. He was starting to like this girl more and more. He could see the false in her eyes, and that amused him even more.
Levi didn't like being the new kid, only because of the fact that he didn't know the cliques around here, and who to stay away from, and who to hang with. But he was glad he met Amanda, meeting a pretty girl on the first day out was a new record for him, Usually the girls in his area were quite shallow, and approached him, He really wasn't all for the possesive type, like most of them where he used to live.
He smiled, thinking of where he should go to take Amanda, he was new to this area, and wasn't very familiar with the good eating places, or which ones had the best food. Pretty fine? I bet she was absolutley georgous. Lovin them phsychic powers, You read my mind. he said, smiling, a humorous twinkle in his eye. He opened the door and walked out with her, into the sunlit day.
He couldn't remember ever enjoying himself this much in his old town, everyone was kind of linked to everyone, it was kind of nice to get a fresh start, The subject of football came up again, He looked down, Any Idea where I can sign up for the Football team? he asked, scratching the back of his head and looking up at the sky. The sun was pretty warm for a winter day.
Taking the time to open his gatorade and take a sip. I bet this guy would love to call her later, he fished his cell phone from his pocket and opened it, going to his contacts and adding new, He entered her name and offered his phone out to her, She oculd enter her number, he would enter his.

Babe, with a face like yours, Don't see why I wouldn't be stalkin' ya. He was sweet too? She decided not to refute that one with a sarcastic remark, and rather just smile and accept it. "You like that one?" she rose her eyebrow again pointing to it as she saw him laughing slightly about it. "I figured you would" she said looking very profound as if she knew everything. Being somebody who did pretty bad in school overall, she rarely ever made that face. Getting grades just high enough to play sports, her intellect was not one of her strong points. Early on she had been told that she would base her life off of sports, and although she didn't want to believe it at first, eventually she just stopped trying in school. And yes, her grades painfully reflect that.
"Just wait. You'll come to love a lot more about me than just my psychic abilities" what started out as a smirk then turned into a real and sincere smile. "I mean, I am more than just a pretty face and psychic powers, I hope you know that". She wondered how well they would eventually get to know each other. They had only known each other for a little while, but they hit it off so well. It was most definitely mutual. The worst feeling in the world was being into somebody who didn't feel the same way. So, she hadn't really experienced that too much, usually it was the other way around, but she could imagine. In her last relationship something the guy had still liked her, he just liked somebody else more. Fortunately, he had graduated, and Amanda could leave that chapter of her life behind her.
Walking outside with him, the sunshine hit her body providing a comfortably warm feeling as if she was wrapped in a blanket. "Hmm, football?" she thought back to when she first started playing sports at Parsons aka. the first few weeks of school. "I would go and talk to the coach, or maybe some of the guys on the team first. I can introduce you if you want. I'm cool with just about all of them"Her and the rest of the Poster Kids knew just about everybody in the school, or everybody that counted at least. It was funny how each of them had their little area of expertise but in the end were all able to come together and be best friends.
As she took his phone and handed him hers, she added her number. "Good" a satisfied smile on her face. Thinking back on it, she hadn't been on a date in a while. Was this a date? It had to be. Usually, most of her interactions with guys were either at school or at parties. Maybe if things went well at lunch, she would bring him to the party that was coming up. Although Amanda wasn't one to bring people to parties, it was definitely an option. For the most part, she liked to keep her options open and hated the feeling of being tied down, but she would make an exception for him. That is if everything went well, which she was sure it would.
Giving him back his phone and receiving hers, she said, “Well, I guess I’ll see you around school. And, good luck with that girl. I’m sure wherever you take her she’ll love” and with that she started to head to her dorm.

Levi smiled, finding she just accepted his compliment, instead of returning it with a smart remark, He walked with her, listening to her and looking down at her face, He smiled wider, Listening to her words, Again, You've read my mind. He was starting to like her more and more, with eahc second. She was definatley witty, and he liked that about her. Levi always got good grades, no lower than a C. But, he really didn't care about grades in a girl, it was what was on the inside that counts. A little cliche, but true.
"Just wait. You'll come to love a lot more about me than just my psychic abilities"
Oh, beleive me, I intend to. he smiled, stopping as she took his phone and began to enter her phone number, and in turn, he took hers and entered his in aswell. This practically tradition with girls and guys that just meet, exchanging cell phones and entering numbers. He was a bit releived when she said she was cool with the football team, perhaps that would help him out a bit, I'd appreciate that. he said, handing her her phone and smiling.
“Well, I guess I’ll see you around school. And, good luck with that girl. I’m sure wherever you take her she’ll love” See you around, he began to walk backwards, and finally turned around and began towards the center of town. He needed to check out the local cafe's and all. As he passed a few blocks, he came to a cafe, Ventana's? It looked more like a small coffee shop than a place to have lunch. And the fact that there wasn't many people there told him something. He continued, and a closer to campus, was "Snack Shcak." That place looked better, for there was more people, he entered and briefly scanned the place, this is where he may take her... He headed back outside and browsed the town. Getting to know the place before finally heading back towards the Dorm.
