Location: London, England || Time: 9am

​

Alex's eyes gleamed as she looked down on the busy streets of London. She still couldn't believe that she was in England. Her mind raced with thoughts of what she wanted to do, to see. The more she thought about it, the more excited to became. Letting out a squeal she took off across the hotel room, shaking her roommate. "Come on, wake up! Meeting!" She spit out before running out the room into the hallway.


She had managed to pull together 9 of her closest friends for this trip and she sure as hell wasn't about to let them sleep all day. Obnoxiously knocking the doors of the 3 other rooms they occupied she yelled out. "Wake up! Meeting, my room!" Before moving on to the next. Once she finished she trudged back to her room, slamming the door behind her.


(( Sorry this is so short & that I just threw the whole roommate thing in there. It's gonna be 2 people in 3 rooms and 3 in 1 room. You can work out the roommate situation in the OOC. ))

NiKlaus awoke to a sound banging on his door. He looked around, half-asleep, trying to find where the sound had come from. Remembering it came from the door. He looked down to the blankets that were lying on top of him. They weren't his. He started to freak out until he suddenly remembered that he was in London with his friend Eli. "Of course he did." NiKlaus sighed and then pulled the covers off of him. He stood on his knees only in his underwear and and old summer-camp t shirt. Stretching, he looked to the others in his room and noticed they were also about to get up too.


He wasn't a very grumpy person in the mornings but couldn't help but ask, "Can I at least get a coffee first!" When no answer came back, he sighed and got up from the bed. Putting some pants on and making up his bed only slightly and then walking out of his room. As he opened his door, a bright light came through and shined onto the others that were still in their beds. NiKlaus then walked around and familiarized himself with the place they were residing within. London really was a lot different from America. He then went to the bathroom. While waiting for the others to come along.

Brandon woke up to the sound of Alex banging on his door, he groaned and got up from his messed up bed.


He squinted at the light coming in from the window and yawned loudly. Today was the day. Today they


go and travel around Europe. Brandon hated to be woken up early, but for this occasion he was fine


with it. Brandon grabbed a white collared shirt and pulled on his pants, it didn't take him very long


to get ready in the morning. He headed to bathroom to freshen up and fix his hair.

The banging echoed through the room, starling the occupants. "What the hell..." he said pulling the blankets off him. What was the banging? Alex. The first person to pop in his head, she was so excited for this trip he was too. Vince peered out the window watching the bustling city move about the morning. Hearing the faint yell of Alex calling a meeting.


It was way too early for Vincent. He saw Emma sleeping too. The man strode over to her shaking her a bit. "Wake up, doll" he muttered as he looked for the light switched for the bathroom. Light switches were hard to find in Europe. Emma had to find it for him when they arrived. The light woke him up more though, he stared in the mirror then walked out. Vince was wearing a pair of pajama bottoms with black Scotty dogs all over and no shirt,like he cared though. The guy walked to Alex's room and announced his presence. "I'm here..."

✯Hadley Knox✯


Location: London || Mood: Enthusiastic




​

Hadley awoke to the sound of someone banging on the door. She groaned, the idea of getting up from bed the last thing on her mind. After snoozing for a few minutes longer, Hadley wearily got out of bed. A quick look out the window reminded her of the exciting fact that she and her other close friends were in London. She smiled eagerly, then dashed to the hotel bathroom to take a quick shower. After taking a hasty look in the mirror at her wavy hair, Hadley put on some shorts and a light sweater before she rushed out of the room to meet up with the others.

Alex strode into her room, glancing over at the lumpy mass of her still sleeping friend. "Lazy ass." She muttered. Rummaging through her suitcase she pulled out an outfit and made her way into the bathroom where she changed and fixed up her hair in a messy bun. It was just her friends, who did she have to impress? Through the door she could hear the others starting to file in. She swung the door open, almost making the door nob go through the wall. Jumping at the bang she had just created, she gasped and grabbed her chest as if she had just had a heart attack. She quickly collected her self and stepped out of the bathroom to find Vince standing there. She could feel her cheeks becoming hot, "Oh god, this is embarrassing." She thought to herself. "You didn't see that." She said giving him a smirk. Even though they were friends, she hated looking like an idiot in front of them.

 

[Antlered punk]

Vince snickered a bit. "Oh so smooth" he joked at her. He was wearing some

casual clothing, not much. 'What do you want?" he asked pouring some coffee and watching the others file in one by one. It was way to early for Vince, He saw Alex's roommate sleeping and he sighed wishing he was her, sleeping. The room was so clean too. "I'm starving" he mentioned​

 

[lenalove21]

After grabbing a cup of coffee from the lobby, Hadley walked into the room where Alex and Vince stood with awkward expressions on their faces. She smirked at them, then looked over at Alex's roommate, who was still sleeping. Lucky, she thought to herself. Hadley took a sip of her warm mocha and smiled at her two friends. "Hey, guys."

Niklaus washed his hands and walked out of the bathroom to make his way over to where the other members of the group were. They seemed to be in Alex's room where she promised there would be a meeting. I'm sure it was for plans for the day. Maybe they were going to have a group tour through the streets of London? Maybe go to a club later on? Who knew what was in store. This could be fun. Niklaus then walked through the open door to meet with the others. "I... uhm... I hope I'm not intruding, am I? The others seem to still be asleep."

Eli||Mood: Giddy||outfit





Eli just so happened to be emerging from the bathroom as Alex made her first round to wake the crew up. He figured he had some time to kill doing nothing, while everyone else was waking up and pulling themselves together. "Perks of always operating on 4 hours of sleep." he smiled, watching the girl go by. He went downstairs and outside, lighting up a cigarette. 'The sights we'll see today...' he thought, taking in the beautiful setting. Only being half done, he shorted the smoke, saving it for later. When he made it back to the floor where their rooms were, he found that he wasn't the first person there.


"Just the way I like it." he whispered to himself. He caught the door before his best friend, NiKlaus, closed it behind him. "Well, I see everyone else is perkier than a nursing maid in Alaska. What's hold up?" he asked, smiling at everyone--but more-so toward Vincent.

Emma // London, England

​

Emma groaned, rolling over as Vince tried to get her up. Sighing, she pushed herself up, looking around the room, her blonde hair a static looking mess. "Alex...." she groaned, realizing the other girl was most likely the reason she had been woken up. With another sigh/groan, the blonde slowly shuffled off her bed and towards the bathroom, planning on getting ready. Grabbing her clothes from her luggage, she combed through her hair before throwing it into a pony tail and sliding on her glasses.


Stretching, Emma walked out of her room with Vince and towards Alex's room, opening the door in time to see Eli's smile towards Vince. She smirked lightly, walking up to him. "Back off bub. He's my roommate." she told him, her stern tone joking.

 

[WrittenHollowness]

Eli|| Mood: Playful||


Eli smirked at Emma, enjoying her need for early morning banter. She was a feisty little thing, always fun to have a conversation with. "He may be your roommate," he grinned at her, "But that doesn't mean he has to sleep in your bed." He then folded his arms and leaned back against the wall, a smug look enveloping his face. 'Check.' he thought, counting each move like a chess match. He'd been trying to get close to Vincent since they got on the plane. As luck would have it, she was seated right between the two boys, taking the form of a huge obstacle. He'd get around her sooner or later.

 

[izayoiix]

Emma rolled her eyes, a smirk on her face. "Don't need him to. Just don't make too much noise, kay?" she asked, a grin on her face. Yawning slightly, Emma moved so she could lean on the wall comfortably. She enjoyed talking to Eli. He would be sarcastic with her sometimes. Hopefully joking around would help wake her up. God, she was exhausted.

 

[Antlered punk]

Vince's features flushed a bit bringing out his faint freckles, that faded when he was young. The banter made him smile making him feel good and wanted. The others shuffled in with the typical 'Morning' or Vincent's usual. 'This is way to f&cking early to be awake.' His job back home was a night job so he was completely knocked out at home also to add the time change wasn't ideal.


"Are we getting food? I heard from the front desk lady, the 34th street cafe was good. " he spoke leaning on the wall by the window, giving a warm smile to Eli and Emma.

​

 

[izayoiix]

Emma shot him a tired grin. "You heard of a good place?" she asked, her eyes brightening at the thought of some coffee. "I could freaking kiss you. I'm thinking we ditch right now and go eat." she joked, nudging Eli with her elbow, grinning at the two boys. She was so tired. Normally she'd be working from early afternoon to whenever, depending on the day. She was terrible at waking up early, waking up on her own from 7 to 10 AM, drinking at least two cups of coffee before doing anything.

 

[Antlered punk]

"I would if I could, but Alex would kill us if we left with out hearing us out. " he said with a yawn. Looking out of the window and spotted a red double bus. "Emma, remember our game?" he gave her a punch on her arm. "Red bus" he called pointing down below. Vince laughed a bit waking up more, today was going to be a good day he thought.

Niklaus looked to the others himself hoping he would be included. "You don't mind if I tag along, do you?" He said nervously to the others. He


Looked at all of them, knowing he wasn't very familiar with all of them. He eyed Eli then, feeling very awkward and remembering it was he that had just brought him along for the retreat. Niklaus was hoping that he could make these people into his friends but didn't want to press on the matter too much.

Emma pouted, grabbing her arm. "Dangit!" she muttered. "I will get you back..." she muttered to Vince before grinning at NiKlaus. "Course ya can! Vince seems to scared, and," she smirked. "I think Eli would rather stay with Vince." she pushed off the wall, staving off a yawn. "I'm thinking Alex should wait." she stated. "I need coffee. You wanna come?" she asked NiKlaus.

Niklaus looked at the girl with an energetic smile. Once he did, their eyes locked for a few seconds, and through those seconds, he seemed to actually truthfully admire her eyes. They played well with her hair, reflecting both beautifully. He then snapped out of it quickly. "Oh of course! I'm sure they're serving it down in the lobby. " He then pointed out to the hallway making his intentions to leave the room and get the coffee. "Does anybody else want anything? " He looked to the rest of the room, genuinely concerned for his slightly new friends

[izayoiix]

Emma blinked, smiling at him before shooting Vince a questioning look. "Coffee or something?" she asked. She pointed at NiKlaus. "We can go grab it, bring it up, listen to Alex then go eat." she planned. "That work for you guys?" she asked the three males around her.

 

[Antlered punk]

Vincent took the time to scoot in to Emma's seat. Better than standing he thought. "Get me doughnuts " he called out. Doughnuts were his weakness, along with anything sweet for that fact. Eli's hair was so nice looking great with his eyes, god he was such a fucking dork when it came to romance.

​

 

[lenalove21]

With everyone mentioning food, Hadley suddenly felt her stomach growl. She stood and smiled at NiKlaus and the others. "I'll come with you, and help with all of the food if you want," Hadley suggested. She was dying to get this trip started, and was willing to explore whatever England had to offer.

"It's settled then." Niklaus said as he smiled towards Hadley who agreed to help bring the coffee and small breakfast before they set out to explore this unfamiliar city of London. He motioned for the girls to follow as he walked down the hallway and made it to the elevator. The whole place reflected the whole site of London too. It's architecture, it's culture, and even the wealth of the country. Niklaus then pushed on the elevator button that would take him and the girls down to the ground floor. He looked out the window too his left to see the many wonders of London. It was gorgeous and he knew it was all about to be revealed to him. Then the door to the elevator opened.

Emma grinned, nudging NiKlaus gently in the arm. "It's so pretty here..." she smiled, looking around happily. "I'm so happy I was able to come." she said, looking at him and Hadley. She pushed her glasses up slightly, shading her eyes with a hand as she looked around the area. "Vince said 34th right?" she asked the two. "I'm hoping this place is good."
