"Yeah I'd say skinny dipping is out of the question." Her words were playful as she took another sip from the bottle, thinking of something else that could occupy their time. "We could play a game?"

"I'm open to suggestions, I tried to go for a swim earlier, but the water is too cold, so I don't recommend that, anything else, I'm in." He pointed out

[violetsilhouettes]

"It's okay if you don't, I'm just glad you changed your mind." She told her friend with a smile. The two of them were able to go out and have a good time and that's what mattered, next time though she'd be sure to see if Christina wanted her son to tag along too and they could grab lunch. Skyler didn't want her to think she had to keep aspects of her life separate, instead just inform her that she could have the best of both worlds. "I'd be happy to try it on for you, but I hope I'll get an excuse to wear it out some time soon."

Christina turns her head to look over at the blonde next to her. "Next time I promise I'll listen to you the first time." She teases. She knows she sometimes tends to neglect those around her because her son is her top priority but with all the tension caving on top of her with Dallas back in town. She laughs as she glances towards Skyler's bags. "Really? I have to see that on you."

[violetsilhouettes]

Skyler didn't need to be at the hospital, but once she caught word of the news she couldn't help but want to stop in quickly to see if there was anything she could do to help. She heard a voice call out and could only assume their words were meant for her, she was the only one in the hallway. "I haven't seen anyone like that yet, I'm sorry." The blonde paused, peaking her head into the room as she leaned against the door frame. "I just got here myself, I've been looking around to see if I can offer anyone a hand. Are you okay?"

status: open where: Aurora Bay Hospital @aurorabaystarter

It would have been smarter to get into the ambulance with Annette; Lucas knew that now, and yet, he still regretted not doing it. Nevertheless, it wasn't long before he was brought into the hospital, much to his protests, even if he was running out of breath, and his arm really was hurting. After multiple tests and a whole bunch of protests from Lucas, he was bandaged up and provided with oxygen, along with a whole bed for himself, even if he knew he didn't need it. This wasn't even the worst thing that had happened to him, and frankly, he was worried.

"Have you seen an old lady?" He asked the person walking by. He wished he could just get up and walk himself; now that the painkillers were working and he was getting oxygen, he felt fine. It wasn't like him to just stay still. "Black hair with grey strands, likes to cuss everyone out? She lived in one of the apartments. Eleventh floor?"

[violetsilhouettes]

"Are you sure? I don't mind sharing with you." She offered him a smile as he pulled out the other bottle, laughing a bit before nodding her head. "I can definitely drink to that." She brought the bottle in her hands to meet his before bringing it to her lips. "What should we do in the meantime?"

@jake-hudson

"You can keep it, I have another." he said grabbing the bottle that was next to him, he still had another one close in case more people decided to join them, or they just wanted to repeat the dose. "Exactly! a toast to not going home!" he said drinking a bit more.

Skyler shook her head as he spoke, figuring he'd try to take away the wins she'd already earned. "You know..." She began, taking the piece of chalk from his hand before she continued. "If I wasn't confident that I could beat you, again, I'd be putting up more of a fight." She returned his smirk, bringing the chalk to the end of her cue as she looked at him. "I can't believe you'd call me chicken when you're the one losing. Let's play again."

"Everybody knows the third round is playing for all or nothing." Major differed, blowing the blue chalk from his pool stick before offering the blonde the piece of chalk. "Unless you're too chicken?" He asked, smirking as he still held the chalk out to her.

[violetsilhouettes]

"See I think if given the choice I'd choose to explore myself — you said it perfectly, it's not every day that you get to be in those places so I don't blame you for taking advantage." She told him, laughing a bit as the next words left his mouth. "Is that your way of getting me to compliment you?" The blonde's head tilted with her words as she allowed her eyes to glance over his appearance once more. "Maybe? I was in a movie called The First Time and landed the lead, but more recently I had a smaller role on Stranger Things where I was just there to be killed off." She explained softly, in the meantime she was working on some new designs while preparing for her next big audition. "I like the way you think, maybe she'll be so jealous that she'll give me the day off."

"During football season? God, it kind of depends on how the coach is feeling and how soon we get to the place we are supposed to play at." Chase shrugs. "I think I would much rather explore the place we are playing at. It's not every day you get to fly anywhere, ya know?" Arching a brow, a slight smirk curves his own features at her words. "Don't you mean it's a welcomed pretty sight?" He raises his water up to his lips, taking a long sip of it as he glances towards the entrance then back to the blonde in front of him. "Have you been in anything I would have seen?" He asks. "I like to think I have some good ideas." He chuckles. "Ah, should we take a selfie to make her jealous?"

[violetsilhouettes]

"I knew you'd change your mind as soon as we stepped inside, the deals are always out of this world." Skyler had a bag hung on her arm, happy with her finds of the day within the small store. She understood that in Christina's life someone else was her main priority, that's what came with being a mother. Nonetheless Skyler enjoyed giving her the chance to focus on herself more, taking her out to do something solely for her benefit. "I got that pink silk dress we saw from the window, I couldn't pass it up once I saw it was my size."

outside sea glass boutique w/ @violetsilhouettes

Christina walks out of the boutique with Skyler. "I was feeling a skeptical about the shop but you were right." She says as she holds up the handle of her bag. She had been trying to be better about overfilling the apartment with stuff her and Colt didn't need since it was a small place for the two of them. He was five now so he was a little more mellow but his toys were his lifeline and the last thing she wanted was to have stuff and take up too much room but when the blonde suggested they go to the boutique... She couldn't say no. "What did you end up getting again?"

[violetsilhouettes]

Skyler looked over at him and offered a smile, taking another sip before handing the bottle back to him. "The sound of the waves mostly, it's so much better in person rather than a recording at home." The blonde explained with a smile. "Now with your company, I won't need to go home any time soon."

@jake-hudson

He smirked when she accepted his drink. "What brings you here?" he asked, he had no idea how he ended up there, but she didn't seem to be as drunk as him, besides he wasn't going to question why, he was glad to not be drinking alone anymore

[violetsilhouettes]

"The waves are pretty good company." It was one of her favorite places when she needed space or her thoughts were too fast. Skyler wasn't a stranger to big parties and crowds, but she loved the finding the balance in between both. "I'd love to." The blonde responded with a smile, taking the bottle from his hand and bringing it to her lips.

"Not anymore." he pointed out, it had been a few years since he came to drink on the beach, mostly because he was out of town, and he didn't normally drink alone, he always threw big parties at his place, but this was unplanned. so drinking on the beach it was. "Wanna join me?" He said offering the bottle to her

[violetsilhouettes]

Skyler stepped out from the party to get some air, the alcohol circling through her body needing a minute to settle without music blaring in her ears. Her eyes looked out at the sky from the balcony, taking a minute before looking over at the man beside her. "Is that your way if asking me if I have a lighter?" She questioned with a laugh before nodding her head. "Yes is the answer to both questions." The blonde continued before digging in her pocket to pull out the object in question to offer it over. "Are you enjoying the party tonight?"

CLOSED starter for @violetsilhouettes where: a house party in seabrook

It's… sometime during the night, Asher's lost track after the third jungle juice mix he's downed, and without a new phone (yet) or a watch (like he'd ever wear one) how could he know? It's the right level of tipsy now where he doesn't feel like his stomach is going to threaten to empty its contents but everything feels bright, like the sun is shining everywhere even when the stars are in the sky outside.

Speaking of, they look pretty, he thinks, as he fishes in his pocket for his cigarettes and a lighter, producing neither. The other person on the balcony catches his attention, Asher waves to her. "Hey hey! Excuse me, uh, do you smoke at all?"

[violetsilhouettes]

The sound of waves crashing against the shore always seemed to calm the blonde's mind. Though there was nothing particular circling around in her brain that was bothering her, it still felt like a relief to walk near the water. She spotted someone nearby, taking a few steps closer to spot a familiar aurora bay face drinking alone. "Depends on how daring you are." Skyler said with a laugh. "Do you usually come out here to drink?"

@aurorabaystarter

Jake wasn't sure how he ended up on the beach or what time it was, it was still dark, and the place was mostly desert. He remembers he went to Oasis, he had a lot on his mind and he just wanted to forget about everything for a few seconds, one drink wouldn't hurt, but one turned into a bottle and now he was listening to the waves in the distance. "Do you think the ocean is too cold for a swim?" He asked when someone walked by.

"Do you still manage to get gym time in or would you rather explore the new places you're in?" She questioned, her eyes catching sight of the smirk on his lips and offering one back in return. "It's a shame you don't get more time to yourself, you've been a pretty welcomed sight." She shrugged off her words casually, letting her blue eyes meet his. "I intern with this local designer, but I do a bit of acting as well." Skyler explained as she leaned her elbow onto the empty machine beside them. "Maybe that's why?" She paused, giving herself a moment to look around before giving her attention back to him. "Your agent should start listening to you, get the team some extra exposure." The blonde teased, shaking her head in response since she didn't really pay attention to sports. "Rams...my boss is a fan, obsessed superfan that made her own calendar with your faces on it. Now it all makes sense."

Chase laughs. "Once the season starts I'll be lucky if I have free time to anything. I feel like a teacher who gets three months off." He smirks as he twists the cap of his water bottle open, raising it up to his lips and taking a long sip of it as his dark orbs focus on the blonde in front of him. "What do you do for work?" He asks, wondering what made her schedule so jam packed. He closes the water bottle, holding it by the tip of the bottle between his fingers as he tilts to the side, shrugging his shoulders. "I'm the kind of guy that pretty much watches the same shows multiple times once I find one I like." He glances past her just to get a good look around them before looking back at her. "I keep tellin' my agent my face was born to be on one but unfortunately no... If you watch football, that's why I would look familiar. I'm the Ram's Quarterback."

[violetsilhouettes]

"Noted, you don't like being the one wearing them?" Her eyebrow raised, blue hues not moving from his as he spoke. The more she looked at him the rest of the bar started to disappear around her, their plans solidifying in her head as the playful tension built between them. "I'm not opposed."

“Think of it as an incentive.” Skyler smirked, the tequila being the perfect way to possibly spark more chemistry between them, his response already inching them in the right direction. "Besides, I've got to see if you can handle taking a shot without making a face, It's a right of passage."

The blonde could see a night worth remembering in their future, beyond the drinks on the cool counter top it was just out of reach. She grabbed onto one of the glasses, holding it out as a smirk spread on her lips. "Bottoms up?"

"Not end up in handcuffs," Lennon said, hesitation void from the space between her question and his answer. He seemed to tilt his head along with hers as if to not break the pact they began to weave together. "Unless, that's something you're into."

His nodded towards the glasses laid out in front of them. Lennon wasn't blinded yet, but the small glaze over his impulses had been melted away under the drinks he had consumed. To start up again would only land him in on the asphalt, but he wouldn't mind.

"Is this some liquid courage for you to keep up?" He smirked.

[violetsilhouettes]

"Alright fine, best out of three." Skyler told him with a smile and shake of her head. It didn't take much convincing since she was having a good time and was glad that her aim was on her side. If not she wouldn't of been so eager to give the man another chance to beat her, but she was enjoying the company. "So I've beaten you twice and if i lose once you want me to get the tab?" She questioned playfully as she looked over at him. "The winner might need something extra, just in case."

— OPEN STARTER ; the reef bar

"Best out of three?" Major asked, racking the balls in the triangular frame at the foot of the pool table. He wasn't ready to admit defeat yet—despite having already lost the previous two games. "We can even make it interesting," He rounded the table, buffing his pool stick with the blue chalk. "Winner picks the next bar, loser pays the tab." ( 0 / 6 ) @aurorabaystarter
