Kimberly smiled and scooted a little closer when she heard then thunder. "Yeah, its pretty weird." She said hearing her voice waver a little. She did find being scared of cheese weird. It wasn't normal and plus it was just cheese. Eat it and move on. It doesn't have a mouth and it can't hurt you.. Unless your lactose intolerant. "Do you think I'm weak because I'm scared of Thunderstorms?" She asked quietly. She didn't know why most people weren't. It was one of the most scariest things in the world.

Dimitri laughed and picked up the book bag. "I doubt anyone will be around to catch us." He said and than looked at the stairs were his brother ran to. "Hey I'll be right back." He said while slipping on the book bag. He took off up the stairs climbing them two at a time, he opened Scotts bedroom door and walked in. "Brother, were going painting. Do you wanna come?" Dimitri asked hopeful. Scott looked up from the bed and smiled. "Sure." He said and stood up. He didn't want to go, but he could see how much his brother wanted him to. Dimitri walked away and listened while his brother followed. They walked down the stairs together and he smiled. "Two"s a group, three's a party." He said and laughed.

Elaina sat the girl on the bed and sat down next to her. "You seem like a good person to." She said and finally made up her mind. She didn't know why people didn't want to hang out with this girl besides the fact that pretty much everyone is dead. Sh couldn't help but not smile. She loved talking to people even if she had a huge chance of dying.

Rose nodded and couldn't help but saying. "Your a pretty smart guy. Smarter than the people I used to hang with." She said and tears stung her eyes when she thought about her old friends. They were stoners and totally obnoxious, but they were her family and they meant the world. She wondered if any of them were still alive and if so were they still doing drugs.

"It's okay. Maybe I'm weak because I'm scared of cheese." Chris said lightly. "Put cheddar a foot from me and I'll liking be screaming my head off." He added. He was trying to work up Kimberly's confidence. "An really, the chances of getting struck by lightning are very rare. I mean, unless you mean the noise, which you could block out with something."
...
Cassie was close behind them. "Hopefully you're right." She said, regarding to Dimitri's comment about not many people being out there. Hopefully he was right and they wouldn't be shot dead before the morning. Well, even if she was gonna die, she would die laughing in the face of the stupid war.
...
Alison looked surprised. "Really? Thanks, I guess." She said, smiling as well. But she still held her guard...in case this girl tried 'things' and killed them both. And that would be bad. "You're pretty nice yourself." She complimented.

Kimberly jumped again at the sound of thunder. Being trapped in the closet with Chris was better than witnessing the lightning. "I don't like either. I have bad luck so my chances of getting struck by lightning are higher than everyone else's." She said and was practically sitting on top of him now. She found him comforting and she was trying to get as close as she could. She believed he would protect her from this storm.

Dimitri walked out of the door followed by Scott. He could see Scott eyeballing Cassie like she was a potential threat and it made him smile. "Ladies first, Cassie were do you want to go?" He aasked with a smile. He loved the way her new name sounded.

Scott frowned and looked at the girl who he thought was named Noa. "I thought your name was Noa." He said a little confused. He didn't even know why he cared. What was the point she would likely be the first to die in this little three some they have going.

"Thanks." Elaina said and reached into her jacket pocket. She pulled out a small can of Pringles and held it up. She only took a few out of it and they were still pretty fresh. "You wanna slit these?" She asked with a grin. They were cheddaar cheese flavor, her favorite.


(Chris would freak out over those Pringles.)

((-reads what Elaina did- XD Kimberly is sitting on Chris. How amusing. T.T))
Chris could feel Kimberly now literally sitting on him. He didn't actually mind. It felt nice. He thought that maybe that she wanted to get closer to him? Possibly. He took advantage of her on him and pulled her in closer for a hug. ((Chris wanna hug!))
... ... ...
"I changed my name." Cassie quickly said. "I mean, seriously, Noa is a boy's name!" She said in a whisper. "That you've gotta admit, right?" She said. She liked Cassie better, though she still felt like responding yo the name Noa, as well.
... ... ...
Alison nodded slowly. "If-of you're sure." She said. "Thanks. A lot." She told her gratefully. Cheese was better than anything. She wondered if Kimberly had any family. If so, were they alive...or dead? She wasn't sure. "You got any family?" She asked, sound neutral.

Kimberly let out a gasp of surprise and blushed. She shifted in his lap and hugged him back. She wasn't sure why he wanted to hug her, maybe he was thinking about cheese and scared himself. Whatever reason she allowed herself to enjoy it. She missed hugging people. "When I was seven I used to get in trouble for hugging strangers." She blurted out and blushed. Why was she so weird.

(Don't worry Chris, I'll hug you! *Hugs Chris* ^_^)

Scott shook his head and flashed a small smile. "Noa was a perfect name." He said and tilted his head slightly to the right. He couldn't help but wonder were she came up with that horrendously ugly name Cassie. It was worse than the name Noa.

(I like the name Cassie! *Shlaps Scott*)

Elaina nodded her head and pulled a picture of her Mom and little brother. "My dad died before I knew him." She saaaid and pointed at her little brother. "That was my best friend." She said and forcefully held back tears. She grabbed a chip and ate it. She loved Pringles.

(I love Pringles! *Snatches them from Elaina*)

((Yay... I think. T.T *hugs* ))

Chris smiled. "You're smart." He said. "I don't blame them for saying that." He told her. "But right now I don't think it matters that much, stranger or not." He sighed. He himself was sounding weird. "I don't make any sense, do I?" He said.
...
Cassie shrugged. "Felt like a boys' name." She said. "How'd you like to be called Daisy?" She asked, a bit teasingly. If Scott was Daisy, she bet he'd change his name to Scott. She would if she were him. Well, some people she just didn't get.
...
Alison frowned. "Sorry to hear that." She said sadly. "He must've been a great brother." She added. She didn't mean to make Elaina upset. "I have no idea where my parents are." She said. "I never had a sibling." She randomly thought out loud.

(I'm gonna sleep.for a few hours. See you at nine sylestia time? Also I have no school again. I havnt had school in a week. <_<)

((I'll try to get on... Can't get on as easily when mom's awake. XD Lucky... No school. I sill have school. And I also have to correct a test...))

Finn stared at her. " Uhm...thanks? " he said, he was un-sure if she just meant it as a compliment or if she was trying to flirt with him to get something...he mentally slapped himself, no way was he gonna fall for her tricks if she was flirting with him...
