This World

"Okay, we can hang out in Sayo's room," Orion told her with a grin, taking her hand into his as he led her upstairs, "He has a cool music collection and a good gaming system. I forget what brand. I think also hid some things there I didn't want my parents to see."

Jennifer

"I'll be in the kitchen if you need me." Jennifer announced as she left Jacob and Jillian.

?

A mysterious figure suddenly appeared in the street, in the glow of a nearby streetlight. It looked straight at Amy as it began to walk toward her.

Jacob

"Oh I will!" Jacob shouted after Jennifer as she walked out of the room. The boy waited for a few seconds, making sure that Jennifer had actually left, before he looked back at Jillian. There was a determined(and slightly annoyed) expression on Jacob's face as he looked at Jillian.

"She's going to cheat somehow, Jillian." He informed the boy, whispering as he spoke. "So we're going to have to cheat as well. We have to keep Sayo and Amy apart until at least eight. I don't care how, whatever it takes. Alright?" Jacob said, not asking as much as he was ordering at this point.
---------------------------
Carla

Carla jumped out of her car as she saw that the street lights flickering. Of course the woman had been waiting outside of Sayo's house, about half a block down so she wouldn't be noticed(but could still use the baby monitors to listen in o the Teens).

She wasn't exactly sure what was going on, but better safe then sorry, Carla knew. And because of this philosophy, she grabbed the gun under the front seat as well. (Even if it might be useless, depending on if anything was actually happening and who would be causing it in theory.)

After making sure it was loaded, Carla began to run down the street towards Sayo's house.

Amy looked up at the figure walking towards her and she wondered if she was seeing things (still drunk) or if it was someone. She was frozen in fear.
-----------
"Um...sure Jacob," Jillian said. He was a little happy that Jacob was trusting him. Maybe this would be a turning point in their pratically non-existance friendship. He sighed wondering if it was going to be difficult and leaned back, taking a sip of some water. He then promptly spit the water out, his face getting a little hot.

"Ahh...um....ahhh."
-----------
"Sounds like fun to me," Zach said with a smile. "Lead the way."

(Spit take!)

"Of course," Orion told his girlfriend with a grin, leading her upstairs. He wondered what the others would think they were doing in Sayo's bedroom. He felt himself grin mischievously. He'd have to "accidentally" make some noise

?

Whatever Amy was seeing came closer to her, now stepping onto the front lawn. It slowly crept over to the steps leading to the porch before it paused and turned its head. It looked back at Amy one last time before vanishing from sight.

Amy blinked in confusion and gulped. She suddenly didn't want to be out here any longer. She was getting freaked out. She stumbled a little as she tried to stand up fast and entered the house.

"That was...bizzarie."

Carla

Carla stopped immediately as she saw the mysterious creature vanish out of sight. Luckily, Amy hadn't seen Carla. So the Girl went back inside, no doubt to find her friends(At least that's what Carla hoped).

"Great." Was all Carla said as she pocketed the gun. Relieved and yet slightly disappointed at the same time.
-----------------------
Jacob

"First time, huh? Not a surprise." Jacob stated as he watched Jillian spit his drink out.

"Whatever, it's probably better if you aren't drunk for this."

?

"You protect her. You protect that vile Girl." a cloaked figure asked, suddenly appearing next to Carla. "Why?"

Jillian shot Jacob a look, but he was kind of happy. Jacob was still acting like a jerk, but he was still talking to him.

"So..." he started, since they had nothing to do now. "Do you really hate me? I mean I never meant to lie to you when we first met. I was just so use to people calling me a girl that I didn't really think how you would feel when you found out."
---------
"I saw we play first," Zach said pointing to the gaming system. "That way I can kick your butt and then comfort you about it."
---------
Amy headed to the bathroom, but she didn't close the door all the way. She sat down on the toliet and took a deep breath.

"Oh, I don't know about that. I have skilled fingers," Orion told his girlfriend with a smirk as he activated the console. It had a racing game in it. Perfect. Impulsively he chose to take the fastest car, the red one, not noticing how much gas it used up.

Sayo

Sayo saw Amy walk back into the house and saw her head over to the bathroom. Sayo got up from the couch and followed her with some concern. He reached the door and lightly knocked on it.

"Amy? Are you ok?"

Zach just smiled. She choose one that had a moderate speed, but a good amount of gas.

"I won't go down easily."
---------
Amy looked up at the door and smiled to herself.

"I'm fine. Just...my head hurts. I don't think I'll be drinking much anymore."

"Yeah. I know. You're a challenge. That's why I like you," Orion told his girlfriend with a grin as the game finished loading and the countdown for the race began. As soon as it hit zero, he banged the buttons on his controller and sped off, passing a bunch of the npcs.

He smirked, "Want to make this more interesting?"

Sayo

"Well, it's good to hear that. Do you need anything?" Sayo inquired.

Zach frowned as Orion passed her, but she was doing pretty well. She looked quickly at Orion.

"How?"
---------
"Do you have anything for headaches," Amy asked. She could look for herself, but she thought that going through people's medicine cabinets was kind of rude.

Sayo

"Yeah, there should be some pain pills in the medicine cabinet." Sayo replied.

"We make a bet," he told her with a smirk as he sped all the way up to first place, ignoring his gas gauge. He continued, "Say, if I win, you... stay the night in my room, not that I'd say anything, and emerge in full view of my parents'."

Zach had managed to get to fifth. She thought she was doing pretty well.

"Ok. And if I win you have to have to come over for dinner. Topless."
---------
Amy stood to get it and wavered a little. She almost giggled, but she was able to focus enough to get over to the medicine cabinet.

"Thanks Sayo."

"Deal," Orion told her with a grin as he widened the distance between him and the competition. He scowled, however, when the game began to beep and he noticed his gas gauge, "Damn it!"

He grimaced as he entered into a pit-stop. He murmured, "No fair."

Zach grinned and started to really focus. She was now moving into third place. She could soon past Orion.

"You're so going down now!"

Sayo

"You're welcome. Do you need anything else?" Sayo asked.

((By the way, whenever we get to the point where another time skip is in order, anyone mind if I go to Christmas morning first, before going over to January? If possible, I want all the characters to spend the night and part of the morning at Sayo's house before going back to their respective homes, so Sayo can give everyone the gifts he's gotten them.))

(It is fine with me.)

((Ok. Oh, and I'm not timeskipping right now, just to be clear. Most likely...soon, perhaps, but not right now.))

(Sounds good to me.)

"No fair! You used a cheat code!" Orion accused as he waited as his fuel bar to replenished slowly. Finally, when it was filled up about 2/3, he banged the buttons on his controllwer and he sped out. He frowned when he saw that he was in 16th place.
