SLUMBER PARTY

May 18, 2007 18:41

Claire and Violet had shoved the furniture around in the rec room and set up the projector. There was a table with snacks and sandwiches, and Claire would have given her favorite bear for some cola. There was a make up case and some hair brushes, and some glitter covered decorations...just in case anyone could mistake the teen-girl-ambiance that ( Read more... )

Meet friends, make new ones.

"Tracy." She folds stick thin arms over her chest and takes a look around the room. "I haven't been to a party like this since I was like, eleven." Admittedly, that wasn't all that long ago for Tracy, but this girl- Veronica doesn't need to know that.

"I haven't been since I was sixteen," Veronica said. "I thought I remembered a lot of glitter. It's nice to know my memory isn't failing me in my old age."

"Where did she even find glitter here?" Tracy says, sounding almost awed as she watches Claire flutter around the room and greet the other guests.

Claire was the kind of girl, Veronica thought, watching her from across the room, who could find glitter anywhere. An 09er with a genuine sweet streak, a popular girl. The kind of girl Veronica'd been once upon a time. "Oh, they just opened a new party supply store over in dino territory."

"If it's in a shopping mall, I'm so there."

God, she really misses shopping.

Veronica laughed dryly at that, head tilting back a little. "If only," she sighed, a little ragged, because what had her life come to if she was longing for malls? It only made her miss Lilly and a time when she'd actually liked that kind of thing. "Unfortunately, the island remains without Frappucinos or summer sales.... Unless there's something people aren't telling me."

bookof_lies May 19 2007, 02:14:09 UTC

"I would kill for a Frappucino. How sad is that?" Tracy laughs, her nose wrinkling in amusement, "You're in Professor Lupin's literature class, aren't you? I've seen you there."

neptune_sleuth May 19 2007, 02:18:03 UTC

"Pretty sad," Veronica said, shrugging. "But I've been here over a year and I'd still kill. I don't even remember what they're like." She grinned. "Yeah, somehow I thought that going back to school while on a tropical island was a good plan. But Lupin's cool."

"... Hi." Violet couldn't stop the sudden redness that came to her cheeks, but she wasn't just going to sit around and stare at people. That's not what this was about, when you got down to it.

"I'm Violet." She smiled, and ducked her head a bit in greeting.

The girl instantly reminds Tracy of Noel. Not how she looks. Noel was tiny and pretty but in a week, mousy sort of way, and this girl is striking- if not a little unusual, in her beauty. It's the shyness. The blush. The breathy uncertainty of her voice. This girl would have gotten eaten alive at Tracy's school.

Evie would kill her for talking to this girl.

Well fuck Evie. If she couldn't even bother to show up, Tracy is going to stop giving a shit. Well, okay, she's going to try to stop giving a shit.

"Hey. I'm Tracy."

Re: Getting to Know You violet_ribbons May 19 2007, 01:51:43 UTC

"Nice to met you." She tucked one of her braids behind her ear, and smiled. "Do you know Claire, or did she just catch you somewhere?" It seemed to happen a lot, that way - that Claire just... found you and was bubbly and bouncy and then poof - you were suddenly going to a slumber party.

Re: Getting to Know You bookof_lies May 19 2007, 02:17:37 UTC

"She just found me. I only met her a few days ago."

And Claire obviously only barely remembered Tracy's name.

"I know like, nobody here my age. Well, one girl, but I haven't seen her in a while." It isn't that Tracy's been avoiding Hayley, it's just that she hasn't really known what to say to the other girl lately. Or to anyone, for that matter.

Re: Getting to Know You violet_ribbons May 19 2007, 03:48:19 UTC

Violet smiled wider at that. "Well, now you know me? I'm fifteen - how old are you?" She was still kind of used to saying she was fourteen, since she'd only been fifteen since January. "And there's probably going to be people here you haven't met, which is good, right?"

Re: Getting to Know You neptune_sleuth May 19 2007, 00:28:22 UTC

If Veronica Mars were frank, she would have preferred being alone now, the beating of her heart the only sound. When she'd grudgingly admitted to Sam that she was busy that night attending a slumber party, she'd seriously thought he was gonna laugh himself to death. Still and all, she was willing to give it a shot. Really.

Until she'd arrived and realized she was the oldest person there. Aaaawkward. She would have made a quip about offering French braids, but she was afraid they'd take her up on the offer. Veronica just plastered a smile on her face, shoulders shrugging high. If it got awkward, she could just leave. Right. Affecting a more serious expression, she said, "Are we ready to get this party started?"

Re: Getting to Know You unbreakableteen May 19 2007, 00:31:52 UTC

It was probably the most fortunate accident she'd met LOGAN FREAKING ECHOLLS because when that girl walked into the rec room, Claire shrieked and bounced, claping her hands together.

"Veronica MARS!" she exclaimed, beaming as she rushed the young woman. "HohmygodIcan'tbelieveyou'rehere," she gushed.
