Ciera tilted her head, "Well, there's the beach, which is absolutely beautiful at day break, there's a super cheap movie theater down town, a couple malls, and a lot of little shops down town. Oh, and there's the board walk," she said with a smile, "it's like a 24/7 carnival. There are games, a ferris wheel, house of mirrors, all sorts of stuff. I love to go down there and just watch others," she frowned, realizing how weird that sounded, "I mean, I like to see how people interact with each other, it's fascinating to me."

"So you like to people watch," Aaron said slowly nodding his head in understanding. "I do to, it's fun to also add in voices and things you think they might say," He said laughing real loud though his laugh wasn't fake at all. "The Boardwalk sounds like a lot of fun, I might have to go there one day," He said thinking he would love to try and draw all the little buildings and the giant ferris wheel.

Ciera relaxed, smiling at his laugh. "It's really fun, and there's a florist who just makes the most beautiful arrangements. If I ever could, I would love to be a florist, flowers are just so beautiful." she mused softly, not noticing how she rambled. "I've always loved daffodils."

Aaron smiled bigger, "Flowers are very beautiful, very hard to draw though," He said knowing every time he attempted to draw even just one rose, he failed. "Well, since flowers aren't your thing, what would you like to do?" He asked.

Ciera looked at him and smiled, happy to finally have met one guy who seemed genuinely nice, plus it was great that they had so much in common. "How about we take a walk down to the pier and check it out? There should be a lot of people about, and a lot to draw."

Aaron perked up and his smile got bigger. "You sure you have time?" He asked getting really excited. He couldn't wait to see the lights, the buildings, and the ferris wheel. "I mean, I would understand if you have other more important things to do." He said hoping she would still want to go but knowing she might not.

Ciera smiled happily, "I have a lot of time to spare today. You wanna walk down there? I think doing that with you would be a lot more fun than sitting around and doing home work."

"Yes, I would love to walk down to the pier," Aaron said holding his excitement back. He held out his arms to let her go first since he had no idea where exactly he was going.

"Sweet." Ciera smiled and got up, walking out of the courtyard and down one of the sidewalks that passed the school. She looked back at Aaron and smiled, happy to be doing something fun for once.

Aaron quickly fell into step next to Ciera, "So, how long have you been attending Tidewater High?" Aaron asked trying to make small talk to hide how excited he was.

"Since I was a freshman," she replied, "but I always stayed in the background until this year, then I started getting involved in school activities for awhile, but now I'm not that involved anymore."

"Did your parents want you to come here or did you decide?" Aaron continued the conversation, shifting his sketch book from one hand to the other. "What activities were you in?" He asked, though he really wanted to ask if she was a cheerleader.

Ciera looked towards the sky and nodded, "My father passed away when I was a little girl and my mom always wanted the best for me, so she convinced me to go here." she lost herself in her memories for a moment, thinking back to when she had decided to change schools, but quickly pulled herself out of the memory, looking at Aaron. "I was on the home coming committee, dance committee, I'm part of the student government still, and I use to play volleyball."

"Oh, I am sorry for your loss," Aaron said, not knowing the feeling of what it was like to loose someone so close. "My family moves a lot because my father is in the Army, that is the only reason I am here," He said trying to lighten the mood. "You were on the committees? Why did you leave?" He asked wondering what could have caused her to do so.

Ciera nodded, "Yeah, well, this blog came out called The Shark Tank and they've been running stories about me being a slut and being used by a guy I know named Stefan, and they always told everyone that I'm a scholarship, so the people who I hung around with, turned on me and called me white trash and kicked me off the committees." she frowned, looking away. The sting of those memories coming back to her.

Aaron nodded "Yeah, I heard about this blog," He said, he had a read a few pieces the blog wrote and didn't care for it. "Well that sucks," He said, very surprised she didn't have friends that stuck around for her. "Well, it worked out for the best in my opinion," He said knowing that sounded wrong "But now you know none of your friends were real, I mean now the friends you make would be real. Or so I think." He said trying to make it sound better in his mind again.

Ciera tilted her head thoughtfully, "Very true, but it still sucks. Now people I don't know me say I'm a whore and say I'm being used by Stefan." she looked down at her feet, frowning slightly.

"Well, do you still hang with this Stefan guy?" Aaron asked turning to face her before being distracted by the bright lights in the distance. "I mean as long as you aren't really with this Stefan guy, then there isn't anything a blog can say to make it true." he added wondering if his past would creep onto this blog and ruin his new start.

"Well not really, we just kinda see each other. Like, if he finds out I'm hanging out with other guys he'll flip a bitch and come find me and yell at me." she sighed, "I kinda have a crush on him, but I think it's kind of fading away now." she looked at Aaron thoughtfully.

"He would yell at you even though your not dating?" Aaron asked feeling confused "Sounds like a very possessive guy, I mean I get jealous but only if the girl is my girlfriend of course," he said knowing he had ruined a few relationship because he couldn't hold his jealousy back.
