Life is hard Isn't it ? [ Romance/Slice of life Roleplay ]

((Alright I read That you jump in as soon as you post your CS correct me if im wrong))


Nick was just getting up from bed he had about a hour to get to the mill, He cursed under his breath and forced himself up and sat on the edge on his bed rubbing his face somewhat frustrated. When he got up he quickly got in the shower and was shocked with the rush of cold water hitting his face it appeared he forgot to pay the bill.


"Great way to start the day" he quietly grumbled


After he got done with his shower he got dressed, smoked a cigerette then drank some coffee it was the way he started his day usually besides the lovely shower he took. He looked around his shabby house then went for the door and steped outside then locked his door. He was wearing his favorite hoodie and a pair of somewhat weathered jeans along with his beanie, he then continued to his car It was a simple 5 person car 3 in the back and 2 in the front and wasin't the worst looking car on the block either. He pressed a button on his radio to see what CD was in the car it was his favorite custom CD he made himself he then smiled then started the car and at full volume one of his dubstep songs played right when the bass droped.


"Shit!" Nick said extremely spooked and quickly turned the volume down and chuckled at his own stupidity.


He put his car into reverse backed out of his drive way and then put his car into drive and headed off to the lumber mill.


((also a side note for some reason I always enjoy to play a bit of a darker character xD ))
 
((Thanks! I'm still quite new to the format of this website and how people do things. I used to rp with friends on deviantart, but I like this website. Adeline is a bit dark herself :D ))


Adeline quickly rose from the ground and apologized profusely. She ignored his swearing and yelling and just continued on. She adjusted the strings on her hoodie while also trying to fix the zipper. She was in a rush to leave this morning, so she threw on a loose shirt that she didn't realize was a belly shirt. In an effort to warm up, she pulled her hoodie around her and shivered.


The plan was quite simple in theory, but would be difficult once put into motion. There was absolutely no going back now. She would first have to collect the money from her bank account, rent a small apartment, get another job, and go on living. She might also have to dye her hair to keep anonymous, she thought as she pinched a chunk of her light brown hair. She'd then just spend the rest of her life forgetting him. She'd maybe meet someone else... She regretted that thought. She couldn't just find someone else. Isn't that why she has this problem? Being single was by far the safest way to go.


Once again drifting off, she crossed the street only to get hit by a car. It wasn't going especially fast, so she only got hit and slid over the hood of the car. Loud dubstep came from the window, and she was so much in shock that she let that happen. She tried to get up, apologizing repeatedly to the driver who she hadn't glimpsed yet.
 
When the incident happend Luke turned down his music and saw the women attempt to get up and heard her apologizeing. He then got out of the car and helped the women up, luke looked tired with some dark rings around his eyes and smelt a bit of smoke.


"Are you alright miss?" he asked hoping she wouldin't cause a scene the man simply wanted to get to work


He then proceeded to pull down his hood and rub his face with his hand in a bit of frustration.


The weather wasin't exactly helping considering it was cold outside and just wanted to get back inside.
 
"Shit," she said, getting up. She cracked the glass in front of the car, and picked a piece of it out of her head. She only left a tiny dent on the hood, though it was still noticeable. She brushed some glass shards out of her hair and tried to fix it.


"God I am SO sorry. Can I do anything to make it up to you?" she asked, knowing she couldn't fix the car or pay to have it fixed. She felt so awful for doing that. She knew ho expensive fixing cars was.


((sorry for the short reply))
 
after she tossed the peice of glass from here head out onto the side walk luke looked over and saw his winshield cracked


"God damn it" He whispered underhis breath knowing it would be a pain in the ass to fix


He noticed she wasin't wearing any makeup and assumed she was in a hurry just as the same as him.


"If you wan't to help me you'll let me use your cell phone" he said a bit frustrated but still a bit sympathetic.


"And mabye we might want to stop by prompt care also (Sort of a cheap hospital clinic) I can give you the ride there sense part of this is my fault." He was cold and could tell she was too he and thought that it was partly his fault and might earn some good karma if he did this.


((I don't mind short posts :3 just sorry if my grammar is a bit screwy at times))
 
She looked at the cracked windshield and felt guilty. "Sure," she said, picking her phone out and handing it to the stranger. She waited for him to use it before speaking again.


"I'm fine, trust me," she said, reassuringly. Going to the hospital would be a major setback. She should probably get going anyway. This guy looked like he had to be somewhere as well. She felt the back of her head with her finger, looking for any glass shards. She'd take care of that after she had a roof over her head. "But if there's anything else I can do," she said, "let me know."
 
Luke took the phone and fliped it out and made a phone call to his goo freind Frank


"Hey Frank tell the boss man i'm gonna be late some shit went down I should be about 25-30 minutes late" he said a bit angered.


"Yeah alright Luke I'll tell him but he's probably gonna chew you'er ear off agian" Frank said in a joking manner and chuckled.


"He'll probably do it for real this time too" Luke said laughing and smiling a bit then he ended the call


That phone call put Luke in a bit of good mood


"Well can I atleast give you a ride? it's a bit chilly out for a walk don't yeah think?" Luke said
 
She took her phone back and put it back in her pocket. "Yeah, a ride would be nice," she said, climbing into the damaged car reluctantly.


At this rate, she could get the apartment quickly. She had the money in her purse already. It would've been a long and unpleasant walk, and getting a ride would lessen the chance of getting caught.


"What's your name anyway?" she asked, trying to break the awkward silence.
 
He got in the car sat down and started the car he heard her ask the question


"Im Luke Issas" he said in a more woken up tone "how about you whats your name and where are you going?" Luke said questionaly.


He then proceeded to roll down his window and opened up his glove compartment there was a old style blue tooth in there kinda big and bulky along with a sheathed knife and a pack of smokes, He grabed the pack and kinda hoped she didin't see the knife and was about to light one then waited for her to finish talking then finaly asked


"Do you mind" making a gesture towards his cig.


((might have to get off for about 30 minutes or so))
 
"Adeline Myers," she said. She racked her brain for the address for a bit before remembering. "1827 67th street," she said, stating the apartment building she was going to live at for a while.


"No, go ahead," she responded. She wasn't especially offended by smoking. She actually liked the smell a lot. Her grandmother used to smoke a lot, so that might have something to do with it. She grew accustomed to the smell.
 
"Alright thanks Adeline" Luke said


As they were driving Luke hung his arm out the window and would bring it back in to take a puff the rest it back outside and blow the smoke out the window he enjoyed the way the smoke smelled and felt it calmed him but also made him happy in a strange way.


The car was quiet for a bit with the lovely akward silence


"So Miss Adeline what do you do for work?" He chuckled a bit sounding so modest. He continued to take puffs from the cig as they were driving


luke had already driven out of the neighborhood and were driving by various warehouses and hadin't quite gotten to town yet it was still about 5 to 6 minutes away.
 
((Is there a CS for Luke? sorry >_____< ))


"I'm an author," she said truthfully. It wasn't the full truth, but he really didn't need to know anything. It wasn't really any of his business. Technically she was still a hairdresser, but she was in the process of getting published. After that, she'd do that full time.


"How about you?" she asked awkwardly.
 
((Yeah It should be on the thrid page))


"Uh a writer? that's intresting" He said in a bit of a curious voice


"But me I work in the lumber mill not far out of town may not be great and a bit scary but we all gotta do something" He said with a bit tiredly.


"I got a good freind there I work with so makes the work a bit more fun" He said as he made a left turn


"But the boss is a bit of a screw head too" He chuckled


He stoped talking about himself for a minute then proceeded to ask.


"Err so hows your head feeling? not feeling light headed are you?" luke asked feeling a bit like he asked a bad question.


They were already in town and not to far away from the strangers destination.
 
"That's nice I guess," she said, so awkward that she didn't even stop to think she might be being rude. "I agree. Bosses are scumbags," she said, recalling her past and present experiences.


"Oh that? I'm fine. I've had a lot worse," she said cheerfully. She pepped her voice up to cover up what her statement implied. Whatever, she thought.
 
"you've had alot worse?" He said a bit surpised


He put out his cig and placed it in the ash try leaving a trail of smoke in the car


"I suppose you'er right for someone that just go hit with a car and had a chunk of glass in there head you didin't seem to phase by it" He said


It was quiet in the car for a minute


"And put a nice crack in my winshield" he said quietly and a bit flustered sounding


went quiet for a minute.
 
"Yeah. It wasn't that bad. If I went under the car I could've died," she said, smiling. "It doesn't even hurt. I promise," she said. Did it hurt? Yes. However, it wasn't that bad. She'd certainly had worse and she'd probably have worse in the future.


She picked another shard of glass out of her head, trying to scrape dried blood off some of her hair. It wasn't looking amazing today because she was in a hurry, but now it looked significantly worse.


"Yeah, sorry about that," she said apologetically.
 
"Here let me take that" Luke said then proceeded to take the shard of glass from Adeline and drops it out the window


They eventualy get to Adelines stop at the other end of town


"These apartments don't look too bad" he said


"Or well the outside dosein't look all that bad" He laughed a bit


The apartments were shabby with a sketchy looking ally way next to it


"Well Adeline I will see you around" He said giving his good byes to the women he met


((No one else is on posting xD ))
 
She realized that they arrived at her stop. "Yeah, they're a lot nicer than they look, and thanks. I owe you," she said, lowly getting out. "And if there's anything else I can do about the car, give me a call," she said, handing him a phone number and walking off.
 
"Alright I'll do that" Luke said then discarding the phone number into his pocket


He turned on his radio playing the dubstep decently loud but tolerable and started driving pass some sort of music store then hitting the road that would take him outside of town.
 
(geez why not make 2 more pages while I'm gone xD Moonlight you can tell me whenever to meet at the park)
 
It was Leon's first day in Japan. The air felt different, even the ground beneath his feet. He had arrived here past one in the morning, so exploring was definetely out of the question. Leon was staying with his cousin who could fortunately afford room in his apartment. And though the affect of jet lag still lingered, Leon was taking a walk around to get accustomed to his surroundings.


So this is what Japan is like... he thought. He made a turn, and found himself attracted to a music store. Can't remember the last time I had new music, Leon pushed open the door. The first person he saw was a girl behind the counter, listening to her music. "Good morning," Leon greeted her. "Do you recommend any songs from a band? Three Days Grace or Breaking Benjamin in particular. But if you have a different band in mind, that's fine too,"


((And alright Braxto :D I think I'm about ready))
 
When Lucas passed the music store in his car he saw a small group of younger people in there and continued to drive by


"Man I rember when I was 16 not a care in the damn world" he said with a bit of a smile.


He eventualy reached his destination at the lumber mill outside of town and parked his car in the gravel parking lot.


He then headed straight for the Mills locker room and got dressed in his work clothes and he headed down to his staion with Frank their job for the day was to take the metal detectors across the logs before they got processed and try to find any nails or strange items of that sort.


As the logs droped violently into the slots and began rolling.


"Hey Frank how many days have we been accident free now?" Lucas Yelled out


The mill smelled of wet wood and also that dry wood smell for some reason it always comforted Luke


"Uh I don't know Luke" He Yelled back


Frank then looked over at the digital board It said 35 days


"We been accident free for 35 days nows" frank yelled


"And If you don't inspect these damn logs better it's gonna reset to 0 here in a minute" He Yelled to Luke


The 2 men chuckled and laughed.
 
Shira opened one eye and took her headphones off. She looked around groggily, swallowing a little to clear her dry mouth. "Huh?" she moaned, looking at the time. It was way past her shift and she jumped, ignoring the voice of the male in front of her. She held up one finger, signaling his silence, and looked around. Behind a half closed door she saw her co-worker's feet resting on a table in the break room. She shook her head in anger. He hadn't even woken her up!


"Sleazy son of a..." She looked at her customer and trailed off, smiling half-heartedly. "I'm not even supposed to be working now but... you have a good taste in music." She fingered the chains on her black jeans. "Well, we have the new Three Days Grace album. If you just get that I'll bet you can find everything you need. A lot of people argue it isn't their best music but I'm not so sure about that."


Shira rubbed her eyes and laughed down at the counter. "God I must seem like a wreck. We're actually very professional here." She glared at the door to their right briefly before sighing. "At least, most of us are."


((Every one's going on with their business and I'm still in the store huh? xD ))
