Speciosus walked down the street, her hood pulled fully over her head as she walked. She was in no mood to be photographed today. She had been walking down back alleys all day just to avoid people. She found an alley that led to a busier street and leaned up against the wall. To any passerby she would simply look like a person hanging out.
Crys walked down an alley then leaned against a wall. How was she going to pay the rent now?! Her room mate would definitely kick her out. Oh, there was a text from her now.... And sure enough, Jenny had heard about the Starbucks innocent. Well, shit.
Lexa gets outside with Bandit, "Crys....?" She calls out.
She froze... But they wouldn't come down the dar alley. Why would they.
Lexa looks around and starts walking, dragging Bandit behind her. "Crys! Come on. I'm sorry!"
How was it her fault? She was the one that punched the guy! She turned away and began making her way down the alley, shoes echoing on the pavement.
Lexa runs to where the echos were and sees her, "Crys!" She runs to her, Bandit follows.
Crys heard Lexa coming down the alley. "Stop. Just stop right there."
Lexa stops, "I gotta make it up to you...." Lexa says.
"What do you mean make it up to me? That one gig doesn't matter. I've got plenty others. Trust me, I'm better off." She didn't blink so her eyes would stay try and tears wouldn't come.
She looks at her, "Don't lie to me. It's not okay. It's not okay, it's not okay, it's not o-fucking-kay."
((Oh god.. Don't use that sweet talk on me...))
"You want honesty?" Crys raised an eyebrow.
"You want honesty?" Crys raised an eyebrow.
((XP))"That's all I had to say." She says. ((Oh God....))
((I need to remind myself to breathe))
"That was the job I depended on. I just got kicked out of my apartment. I have ZERO skills for the work force, so right now I am screwed. And it is in no way your fault. It's mine for not keeping my fucking temper capped." She folded her arms over her chest. "I didn't even own that guitar in there. My name isn't fucking Sabrina, as you know. It is Crystal fucking Malone, also known as Crys.... You really don't want to know me Lexa, I only bring trouble."

((Me too!))Lexa looks at her, "Do you know who you're talking to? I'm nothing but trouble."
"But at least you have a living. And your dad can support you. I don't have talent like you do, and I can't instantly make it onto the charts like you can." She turned back and started walking down the alley again.
Lexa then says, "Why don't you stay with us?!"
"Do you wanna come stay at the Way house?" Lexa asks again.
"Why not?" Lexa asks. ((I'm close to tears.))
((Same... Do you know how hard that rejection was for me to type?!))
"B-because. I am some girl that you met at a Starbucks. I am a stranger. Who goes around inviting strangers to go live with them?!" She tried to sound confident, but it was a subconsciously weak attempt.
"B-because. I am some girl that you met at a Starbucks. I am a stranger. Who goes around inviting strangers to go live with them?!" She tried to sound confident, but it was a subconsciously weak attempt.
((Yah. XP I'm just stressed and made up my mind about something.))Lexa nods, "But I got you fired."
((And that was???))
"No! I got me fired! I punched the guy! This would have happened sooner or later. I guess it just happened sooner. "
"No! I got me fired! I punched the guy! This would have happened sooner or later. I guess it just happened sooner. "
((I'ma be part tiger next year!))Lexa sighed, "But if I didn't egg him on...."
((You comin to I.F????))
"Just shut up!" She took a few deep breaths. "It wasn't your fault."
"Just shut up!" She took a few deep breaths. "It wasn't your fault."
((For first hour.))Lexa shuts her mouth.
((Eep!! I might see you then!))
"Look, I'm sorry. I'm just... I don't want to feel like some sort of charity case."
"Look, I'm sorry. I'm just... I don't want to feel like some sort of charity case."
((haha, hope so!))Lexa nods, "Okay." She shrugs, "Well, if you need some place to stay, here's my digits." She says handing her a piece of paper.
She stared at the paper for a moment then took it, stuffing it into her pocket. "Thanks."
((Idear! Yay))
((Idear! Yay))
((XD))Lexa nods, "Always avalable. Unless, you know, I'm at a concert."
Crys kind of chuckled, kind of. "Right. So, I might see you around. Bye, I guess."
............. Gone now? Alright!
Hours later ~
Crys sat in that same alley, leaning up against the brick. It was getting dark, but her roommate had locked her out so she couldn't go home...
There was a rustling sound down the alley.
"Hello?!" She called out
"Hiya." It was Steve. Eewww....
She pulled out pepper spray. "Back off."
He continued towards her, a knife in hand. "You were the only chance I had at becoming famous."
Her eyes widened. "Steve..."
Steve's adm swung out, but instead of cutting the aimed place, it cut her wrist.
"Fuck! Steve stop!" He kept coming. She pressed the button on the spray and he began yelling and coughing.
Crys ran. First, two blocks down the street, then cuttin through an alley, then another block. She stopped to breathe and she looked down at her wrist. Blood had soaked her jacket sleeve. Crys would be unconscious before she could walk to the hospital, she knew that... Her cellphone was pulled out of her pocket and she dialed Lexa's #.

Lexa checked her phone, she was shocked and jumped in her car and sped down to where Crys was.
She had taken off her jacket and was using it as a cloth to keep pressure on her arm as she sat by the curb.
Lexa runs over to her, "Oh my God. Are you arlight? What happened?"
"It's nothing. I-I just need it bandaged, that's all."
Lexa looks at her wrist, "Bull." She then tugs her up by her good arm, "We're getting you outa here."
She pursed her lips, but followed Lexa.
Lexa loaded her in the car, Bandit asleep in the back.
"You brought Bandit?" She whispered.
"I never really leave her." Lexa says.
She nodded. Crys moved her jacket so she could see the cut. She cringed and put it back in place with pressure.
When she saw the large building, she tensed. "Wait... Can't we just go to your house, bandage it and be done?"
Lexa looks at her, sighing, "Yes."
"Hospitals really aren't as sanitary as you think, you know."
