Richard nodded, not breaking eye contact with Syra. "I understand. I can't say I know how you feel, I'm kind of an open book, but I understand the need to distract yourself." He said with a shrug.
Bunny nodded. "Maybe sometime I will. I'm looking for a job now, well...not right now...but...yeah you understand." She blushed, the lightness if her skin making it very prominent. She shrieked in laughter when Christian popped up next to her before laughing. "Thank for that, you know, I haven't laughed that hard in a while." She grinned, biting the side of her lip that was perpetually swollen. She blinked when she felt a slight burning in her hand and she looked down, the little crescents on the back if her hand looked irritated from the chlorine, but she shrugged it off.

"I've never told anyone about what's happened to me," she said softly, "not even my cousins, which is serious, considering I tell them everything." she rubbed the back of her neck, but kept her eyes on his.
Christian grinned at her, water dripping all down his face. "I'll make sure to make you laugh a lot then. That's what friends do." he glanced down at her hands and tilted his head, "Oi, what happened to your hand?"

Richard stared at her. "Just because you tell someone everything, doesn't mean you have to tell them everything." He said thoughtfully. "Just never feel rushed to tell someone it." He places a hand in her shoulder. "Okay?"
Bunny grinned. She lifted one if her hands out of the water, her fingers wrinkly already. "It's just a nervous habit I have. It's not usually this bad though. Like I said before, I've had a lot of stress lately. And not that much sleep." She thought for a moment. "I don't think I've slept well in a good three days." She said thinking back to the last couple of nights.

Syra nodded, "Okay." she said softly, "I want to tell someone, but I don't want to scare them away from me."
Christian nodded, concern flashing in his eyes. "Do you need to take a sleeping pill maybe? It's not good to miss out on too much sleep. I have some extra pills that help me when I can't sleep." he thought back to the nights after his mother had passed away and frowned.

Richard have her a small smile. "Just to let you know, there is no way that I will leave you. No matter what." He said softly.
Bunny smiled. "Thanks, but I'm gonna have to decline. I'll get some sleep eventually." She thought for a minute "maybe this weekend I can catch up on some sleep."

Syra slowly relaxed and smiled at him tentatively. "I believe you." she said softly, "I've just never had to say these things out loud before, and it scares me."
He nodded thoughtfully "As you wish Miss. Bunny." he replied teasingly and swam away from her.

Richard smiled at her. "Don't be scared. You don't have to tell anyone you don't want to, just try not to hold it in for too long." He said before moving back down to the bench so he could work in his math some more.
Bunny nodded before ducking underwater and letting herself sink to the very bottom, and crossed her legs. She stared up at the shape of Christian above her and blew a few bubbles before pushing herself back up towards the surface.

Syra half smiled, "I want to tell you, I'm just not sure how to word it all." she moved over so she was sitting next to him. She set down her guitar and quietly rested her head on his shoulder.
Christian watched her curiously and started to float on his back. "That was pretty impressive Bunny."

Richard smiled softy as he leaned his head in too of her gently. He took one of her hands into his larger one and just held it. "Just take your time." He said softly.
Bunny giggled as she burst through the surface, gasping for breath. She swam over to Christian and stopped by his head. She looked down at him, "what cha doing??" She asked with big eyes.

"Okay." She whispered softly and squeezed his hand, feeling instantly comforted by his much bigger frame.
Christian looked up at her and chuckled softly, glad to see her back to her giggly and happy self. "Just back floatin' How 'bout chu?" he winked.

((Are they going to the masquerade?)) Richard smiled before looking at his watch. "So...it's around six o'clock. You want to go get ready for the hooka lounge? We can go to dinner around seven if you want, then we can go to the hooka lounge." he said softly.
Bunny laughed. "Floating is fun." she ducked under the water and swam over to the deep end of the pool before ducking diving down father. Her lungs burned for oxygen, so she pushed herself up to the surface. She burst through the surface panting for breath. "Personally, I like diving." she said with a raspy voice.

((Syra would go if someone would ask her, and Christian would no matter what)) Syra smiled softly and nodded. "I think that sounds perfect. I'll leave you be to math while I go make myself look human." she quickly kissed his cheek then gathered her things and left, walking back to the girls residence hall with a goofy grin on her face.
Christian righted himself to watch her and smiled. "Diving is great. Especially off the high dive." he pointed up to the diving board that almost reached the ceiling. "it's scary but epic."

((Should Richard ask syra if she wanted to go??)) Richard smiled as she walked off. He quickly finished his work before running over to the boys dorms and into his room to change. He put on a light jacket and grabbed his keys and wallet as he brushed his teeth. He was done in record time and made his way back to the picnic table to wait for syra.
Bunny stares up at the diving board. "Can someone not in the swim team try it??" She asked, looked over at Christian. She really just wanted a rush to try and get her mind off her family.

((Yes! O.O Should Christian ask Bunny or is she going with someone else?)) Syra hurried to her room, her heart beating nervously in her chest. She looked through her closet, soon pulling on a whole new out fit ((which looks like this)) and brushed out her hair so it was straighter and not as messy. Syra touched up her make up then walked back out to the picnic table, sitting down across from Richard. "Ready." she said, trying to calm her nerves. Christian rubbed his chin. "Yeah, it's a rule for only swim team to be able to dive from that height. Do you want to try it or something?"

((Okidokie! :3 you can, Bunny isn't going with anyone right now, she's single.I just have to find an outfit for her if that happens, i've been working on one for Shara...so I'm already in the zone.XD)) Richard smiled as Syra came out. "SO, where do you want to go eat? I'm buying tonight." he said with a grin as he got up and went around the table and holding out his hand to help her up. He looked her up and down, thinking to himself that she looked really cute. 'I wonder if she's going to the masquerade ball?' he thought to himself.
Bunny nodded as she swam over to the edge of the pool and hoisted herself up so she could sit on the tile. "I understand, if you don't know what you are doing you could really damage yourself on the water." she said with a shrug. She looked up at it again, "Maybe one day in my life i can try something like that, I'm just trying to keep my mind occupied." she said with a slight shrug and spinning her feet in the water.

((Haha well he's probably gonna ask her))
Syra smiled back and took his hand, quickly standing up. She couldn't help but feel shy around him, which was odd since she never felt that way around a guy before. "How about we go to Panda Express? They have the best honey walnut shrimp and orange chicken."
Christian nodded and watched her, deciding to take a leap of faith. "Are you going to the masquerade ball?" he asked curiously, slowly swimming over to her but chose to stay in the water.

((Seems legit. :3 Sounds good)) Richard nodded. He smiled, "Sounds good, lets get going." he lead her to his car before opening the passenger side door for her. When he got in the drivers side he blushed slightly, "I'll be honest, I don't think I've ever been to a Panda Express, but I've always wanted to try it." he said with a chuckle as he turned the key in the ignition.
Bunny lifted her head to look at him. "Umm...I guess if someone asked me I would go. I don't normally like going to dances alone." she said with a shrug. "Are you going?" she asked him, suddenly feeling very shy and nervous. If he asked, she would more than likely say yes...but a boy like him has to already be going with someone...

Syra followed and got in his car, offering him a smile. "Well it's delicious, you won't regret it at all, unless you're really sensitive to spicy food."
Christian nodded, "I want to, but I need to ask someone and there's only one person I want to ask, but I wasn't sure if she had a date or not." he smiled shyly at her, wondering if she could guess what he was about to do.

Richard grinned as he pulled out of the parking lot. "Gotta love spicy things. Could you direct me in the right way though?" he asked with a nervous chuckle. "I'm not positive where it is." he said with a laugh.
Bunny felt her heart drop slightly, though she didn't show it. "Oh really? Can I ask who the lucky girl is?" she asked with a smile, trying to hide her sadness. Of course he would already have someone in mind.

She laughed softly and nodded. "Of course, but if we get lost, it is not my fault." she pursed her lips, trying to figure out just where to go and soon got her bearings, telling him where to go.
Christian nodded and pulled himself up next to her. "That girl is you." he said shyly, hoping he didn't sound like a total cheese ball.
