What Am I Doing Here? ((Dani))

[Seoras Reinard]

"What am I doing here?"

Oh, Seoras was bored with a whole bunch of capital letters. Bored and miserable, a bad combination.

He was sitting on the floor up against the wall, wishing he could be somewhere else. It was the last period of the day an he had it free. His brother was supposed to be driving him home, but first Terri had to go talk to a teacher about something after the final bell rang, so he was stuck here for at least an hour if not two. Seoras could've walked home, but he was tired and didn't feel like it. He hadn't really been sleeping lately after the whole fiasco with Lindsay, Angel, and Artemis, and nearly the whole school knew about it because all the jocks blamed him for Artemis beng arrested. It wasn't like she actually received a sentence or anything, and he had fought harder than anyone to keep it that way.

What he needed was an intelligent conversation, preferably with someone who hadn't already judged him. "What are the chances of that here..." he thought bitterly. He sighed and stared at the floor, registering but not caring when he heard footsteps echo slightly down the hall toward him.

Dani sighed her stupid car just had to break down that morning and daddy had refused to pick her up saying that it was her fault that the car had broken down by not taking proper care of it..pfft she had taken good enough care of it it was just an old piece of junk.

She continued down the hall she was going to have to leave at some point and pouting wasn't going to get her far as it was useless when her father made up his mind to do something.

She stopped when she got futher down the hall why was a guy sitting there she shruged and decided that since she was stuck there she might as well stop mopeing and talk with someone "Hello there" she said to him

[Seoras Reinard]

Seoras heard a voice and looked up. Wow, someone talking to him without threatening him, that was new...

"Uh...hi...names Seoras Reinard, who are you?" he said out of habit. Ah, she would probably know who he was now, there were enough rumors floating around amongst the people who didn't know enough to see the whole picture, aka most of them. "And if you don'tmind my asking, why are you still here? It's last period, and you apparently have a free..."

[Danielle Smith]

Dani smiled at him "I'm Danielle Smith..it's nice to meet someone out here in the hall" she said to him with a grin yeah she was mean normaly but right now she wasn't in the mood to be cruel or anything just friendly.

"I don't mind you asking..my car broke this morning and my dad had refused to pick me up..I just got the stupid thing and it keeps breaking on me" she said with a shrug seeing as she really didn't care if people knew her car was a fancy junker it wasn't all that bad if it was running.

[Seoras Reinard]

"Wow, guess she really doesn't know...or she could be just toying with me. Whatever, it doesn't matter..."

"Ah, see, I can't have that problem, I don't even have a car. I'm waiting for my brother to get out of class and drive us home, but he has to go somewhere first so I'm stuck with nothing to do for a while..." Now what? Conversation wasn't really his strong point... "How are you going to be getting home if you don't have your car?"

[Danielle Smith]

"Well my car is my mom's and she isn't known for treating her cars al that well but I didn't want to complain and not get one for my sweet sixteen" she said with a shrug "I figure I'm going to have to walk home or beg a friend who has a car..most likely walking though as my friends aren't the nicest in the world you know" she said sliding down the wall to sit beside him "Hey be glad you have a brother to take you home after school even if you've got to wait me I'm a only child and my parents are super busy with themselves" she said with a slight scoff at her own metioning of her parents.

[Seoras Reinard]

So, her luck wasn't so good either...though his was far worse. "What sort of friend won't give a friend a lift? If you want, I can have Terri drive you home. He won't care, I'm paying gas this week. Where do you live?" he asked, running his hand through his hair. The bracelet he still needed to get sized right jingled at bit on his wrist and the sun winked off of it for a second. He blinked, a little startled, to vanquish the spots from his eyes.

[Danielle Smith]

She laughed slightly "Well the kind of friends who are popular and stuck-up that's who won't give a girl a ride when she needs one" she said with a small sigh at the end yeah yeah she knew that they were only her friends while she was at all popular and would toss her away at the drop of a hat but it's the only place she felt accepted.

"Oh thanks for the offer it would suck to have to walk anyways..I live not too far away that's why I was going to try and walk" she said with a grin.
