Welcome!

[Jayla Conway]

She growled at herself as she rolled out of her bed. Looking across at the time, her head moved back as she spotted that it was approaching the time she was meant to be meeting Preston. Even if she didn't have time for one, she didn't like to go out feeling dirty so she quickly hopped into the shower and once she'd finished, she jumped out and dried. Rummaging through her closest, she moaned as she struggled to find the correct outfit. Preston was one of these people who against all odds, she -wanted- to impress even if she didn't feel the need to. Pushing back her soaking wet hair out of her face, she quickly found a somewhat summery top(but hey its Australia give the girl a break), some black skinny fit jeans and some fresh underwear. Quickly changing into them, she tugged down at the dress. It was somewhat like the cowboy print that had been in fashion a year or so back but instead of being white, blue and red it was pastel shades of colours. And it didn't look half bad if she said so herself.

After tugging the brush down her tangeled blonde locks, she grabbed her jacket and keys and pratically sprinted out of the house. Her plain black dollie pumps clanking against the pavement as she jogged across the road to the park. It was going to take her a five minute walk and she was already late. All she could do was hope he didn't mind too much and just apolgise until he got sick of hearing the word sorry. Running across the busy road quickly in order to avoid being flatened by a car, she finally approached the park. Flinging on the jacket, she stopped to catch her breath and make another attempt at wringing out the water from her hair.

It failed, but it had been worth a go. Letting out a sigh as she realised this was going to be as good as it got, she began to walk through the park to where she'd arranged to meet him. Dropping her keys into her pocket, she finally spotted his silhouette and made her way over to him. Pushing back a few wisps of wet hair, she covered his eyes as she stood at the back of him. Cupping them so he couldn't see, she bent down and whispered into his ear in a somewhat manly voice, "Guess who?" before smiling to herself. Her wet hair would be tickling his back by now as the water dripped off of it.

[Preston Daniels]

It wasn't often he was up so early, but Preston had arranged to meet someone, and he wasn't going to let that someone down. He got out of bed, ran his fingers through his hair, and then rubbed his eyes a few times. He always had the same problem; he could never get to sleep at night, but could then never get out of bed in the morning. He really couldn't win.

The first thing he did this morning was go into the bathroom and brush his teeth, something he always made sure he did. Showering was a close second, but really not a necessity. This morning however, he jumped in anyway. When he got out, he towel dried his hair and threw on some clothes. A pair of long shorts and a white t-shirt. He put a pair of flip flops onto his feet, grabbed his keys, and left.

The park was only a five minute drive from his house, so he saw no need to drive there. He ran his fingers threw his hair again. It was dry already. One of the benefits of having reasonable short hair he supposed. He walked through the park gates and saw that the bench they had arranged to meet at was empty. He looked at his watch, and saw that he was still early. Whatever. He would just sit and wait anyway.

It wasn't long before she came anyway. He felt someone put their hands softly over his eyes, and speak to him. He smiled to himself, before lifting his own hands and putting them on top of hers. "Let me guess..." he said as he slowly pulled her hands down. "It'll have to be Jaye"

[Jayla Conway]

A grin came to her face as he put his hands over his. In comparision to his hands, her hands were almost as small as baby hands but thats what you got when you were brought into a small family right? Lucky for her obviously. She bit her lip as he said her shortened name. She'd never really liked to be called Jayla, so she'd just made everybody refer to her as Jaye. And he never failed to do so.

"Oh no. You caught me," she said in mock amazement whereas in truth she knew he would guess it would be her straight away. She'd known him since High School for God's sake; of course he'd recongise her voice, even if she had tried to disguise it. Her hand moving so it could be on top of his, she gave her friends hand a gentle squeeze before letting go of it and walking around to the front of the bench.

Taking a seat right next to him, she smiled at him. "I'm sorry I'm late. Did I keep you waiting long?" she asked him, as she pushed her still wet hair out of the way. Grasping the zip of the jacket, she began to pull it down. It was too hot to have it on and thinking back on it, she wasn't sure why she'd even bothered to wear a jacket. They were in Australia for God sake, there really was no need for jackets etc even in winter. Taking off her jacket, she placed it over her lap as she looked at Preston. Oh how she hoped she hadn't kept him waiting long.

[Preston Daniels]

Preston let go of her hands to let her come around the bench and take a seat next to him. He smiled at her. Oh how he loved it when Jayla was around. It was hard to explain it really. His feelings had sort of come out of nowhere, but it just didn't feel right to tell his best friend that he fancied her. How awkward would that be?

"Oh only like, an hour!" he said, trying to sound pissed off when she asked him had he been waiting long. That was obviously a lie. He had been early yeah, but not that early. 10 minutes max. "Nah I'm just kidding" he said, giving her a smile. "Only just 10 minutes or something" He watched her as she flicked her wet hair out of the way, but didn't comment. In this heat it didn't really matter anyway. It wasn't as if she was gonna catch a cold or anything.

[Jayla Conway]

She bit her lip as he said an hour in what she thought sounded like a truly pissed off tone of voice. "Are you serious?" she said, but it came out in a high pitched sort of squeek. Leaning towards him, she gave him a hug as her way of apology. "I'm sowwie," she told him. But then he told her he was only joking and she stared at him. "Pfft. Making me give you a hug for no reason." she joked. She could sit just hugging him all day long but thats the feeling you get what you fancy somebody. Even if its somebody like your best friend.

Swivelling around so she could get comfortable, she rested her head on his lap not really thinking anything of it. Of course other people who passed might think they were going out, but what would they care. They knew what was going on between them so other people didn't matter. "So." she said. "How have you been Prest?" she asked him with a smile.

[Preston Daniels]

When Jayla flung herself at him in the form of a hug, Preston took no persuading to immediately hug her back. Maybe it was just natural that if someone hugs you, then you do so back. He didn't think so. It was just the fact that this was Jayla, and Preston was crushing over her big time right now. He smiled to himself, before telling her the truth as she let go.

"How have I been?" he repeated as she swung herself around and lay with her head on his lap. How had he been? Pretty down in the dumps lately to tell the truth. Depressing big time over Cassidy, and then Jayla. In all honesty, Preston hadn't been good at all. In fact, he had been far from it. "Not too bad" he lied, looking down at her and smiling. "What about you?"

[Jayla Conway]

If anybody asked her why she was crushing so hard on Preston; Jayla couldn't give them an honest answer. Maybe it was because they were so alike that she was fond of him, she honestly didn't know. He did play the guitar which was always a plus and his smile was infectious as chicken pox going around in a childrens playground. Maybe it was because Preston was well ; Preston.

She nodded as he repeated her question. Preston would probably never give her a straight answer to that question so she never really knew if he was lieing or not. He was the type of guy who could feel shitty as ever but still tell you he was fine and have a smile on his face all because he didn't want you to worry. She liked that but in some ways she wished he'd just tell her the God's honest truth and get it over and done with. She usually found out anyway. "Good good." she replied, not willing to take the matter any further. "Madame Jaye has been pretty good aswell I guess," she told him with a smile. "Just been waiting to see your pretty face, boo" she compliemented him.

[Preston Daniels]

Preston laughed. "Oh, so I'm pretty now am I" he said, looking down at her and giving her a cheeky smile. "I don't think I've ever been called pretty before" It was funny how little things can make you like someone so very much. Maybe it was the little things that made her Jayla, that made him love everything about her. In his eyes, she was just so... perfect.

The way she was laying on the bench made Preston feel comfortable with her, and he let his arm fall down and rest on her stomach. "I would compliment you back, y'know" he looked her up and down jokingly. "But theres nothing really to compliment."

[Jayla Conway]

She smiled as he laughed. Oh how she loved that laugh he had. It was so cute to her. "You sure are handsome." she told him with a smile. "Well hon," she started, brushing some wisps of her hair that was finally beginning to dry out of her face. "There's a first time for everything, am I correct?" she told him. Sticking out her tongue. She prodded his stomach playfully.

Jayla was slightly shocked at how he'd got comfortable so quickly, but she was happy with it. Letting out a sigh as some kids ran past them on scotters, she followed them with her eyes for a second before looking up at him as he spoke. Making eye contact with him for a second as he looked her up and down, she just blinked. "Oh bitch please" she said in a jokey way, the smile never moving from her lips. "You know you want to sexafy me." she said raising an eyebrow seductively.

[Preston Daniels]

He shrugged. "Can't argue with that" he said seriously, before looking down at her and winking. And oh how he couldn't. Yet it wasn't just sleeping with Jayla that was on his mind. For once, Preston knew that he would be perfectly able to spend the rest of his life with Jayla, and not sleep with her once. Not that he wouldn't want to, its just that he didn't want her just for sex. And that was a rare occasion for Preston Daniels.

He smiled again, something that he made a habit of while he was around her. He just felt so happy, and at peace with himself. "So what is happening in your sex life now-a-days?" he asked her.

[Jayla Conway]

She grinned as he replied to her. "Of course you can't. Me and all my sexiness." she said, rolling her eyes at herself. Preston was the only person she could be around, and act vain without feeling insecure about something or other. Hell, she'd quite happily walk around in a towel with Preston because she trusted him that much. But something held her back. She didn't want Preston and her, if anything happened, to be a mindless fling that was a mistake. She wanted him to want her as much as she wanted him. And if that meant waiting for a year or so, then she'd quite happily sit back and get comfortable waiting.

Now it was her time to shrug. One shoulder shrugging loosely, she let out a sigh. It was absoutetly dead if he meant other people wise. As the saying goes; me, myself and I. And thats what she told him. "Apart from myself, it's got jack crap in it right now." she said with a powt. "How about you?" she asked him. And strangely enough, it just felt like a second nature to be talking about sex with Preston. Why? Because they were both well known for being lovers of flings.

[Preston Daniels]

Preston had to admit, no matter how much he didn't want to, that his sex life was non-exsistent. At this moment in time of course. But it felt good knowing that she wasn't getting anything either. Wow, that sounded pretty selfish, but heh. If he couldn't have her, no one could. "Same here bruv" he said, giving her a look that told her he wasn't happy about that.

As stupid as it sounded, as as much as he did like Jaye, it was wierd for him to say that he couldn't imagine ever telling her how he felt. It was as if he would rather be her friend forever than get together and ruin their friendship over some stupid break up. Preston knew, from previous experiences, that relationships ruin friendships, and he didn't ever wanna lose her. He looked up to watch some kids playing with a football over on the grass in front of them. He started thinking of all of the flings and one night stands he had had in the past, and especially when he had lived in Sydney. There had been so many, and he wondered how many kids he might have in the world, that was a result of all those drunken nights.

[Jayla Conway]

Sometimes she liked to give her body a break from constantly being worked at by other men. It wasn't as enjoyable when all you was thinking about was the man of your dreams and wondering if he would be doing some other girl that you wished you were. She closed her eyes for a second, opening them automatically as he said bruv to her. "Is it that you is calling me a man now ho?" she asked him, cocking an eyebrow.

It was true with what people said about friendships being turned into a car crash when love got brought into the mixture. But Jayla knew she couldn't go along in the world without knowing, even if it didn't work, she hadn't attempted to give it a go with Preston. She honestly felt she was at the stage where she could give up all her flings and hooks up and just be solely for him and let him use her as he wished. And it made her guilty thinking about all the other men she'd been with. She knew she was lucky she hadn't ended up pregnant somewhere down the line. She'd fucked up with protection sometimes and she still had managed to dodge any scares. She was incredibly lucky when it came to that. Looking up at him, she couldn't help but smile and feel all mushy-like inside. "Do you think," she started looking dead into his eyes. "You'll ever found your soul mate?" she asked.

[Preston Daniels]

"I dunno" he replied simply, still not looking down at her, but keeping his eyes on the playing children. A question like that really came down to wether or not you believed in fate. Did Preston believe in fate? Not really. He hated the idea that something was in control of his life. What he really wanted to tell her was that he'd already found his, but he stopped himself, and replied as he looked down at her. "I suppose if you look hard enough..."

Ouch, that was a short one...

[Cassidy Donald]

She shifted in his lap as she waited for him to answer. Not a lot of people really believed that there was just one person for them out in a world of more then a billion. And Jayla was unsure. You could lust over somebody, and be lusted for but it was different from being in love and how was she to know that the love she thought she felt for somebody wasn't just lust? She did hope though that one day that special someone was drawn closer to her, and she already had a picture in her mind of who it was going to be. "So. Are you looking for one?" she asked as she closed her eyes again.

Laying on his lap, she just felt close to him. It didn't matter that she couldn't do all the things she wanted to him like tell him how much she cared or kiss him, she just felt near to him and even that was enough. "Do you want to have kids when your old?" she asked him, quickly adding on "-er" with a smile as she opened her eyes.
