Noelle pushed through the heavy dining hall doors and made her way to the seating area- with many plush chairs- where she and her friends usually sat every lunch since the 7th grade. She wasn't the one to skip, but she couldn't bare to go back to Science after that embarrassment and the thing with Carter, so she left the building to go get some fresh air. Now she was feeling better as she plopped down on the chair with a sigh and waited for her friends to arrive.

Sébastien walked into Landon Hall, with his hands in his pockets. His vans squeaked on the newly waxed floor as he made his way to where his sister was sitting. He sat down on the chair she was sitting in, just to make her mad.
"Hello Sis."
He said with a grin. Noelle turned to look at her brother and rolled her eyes. She hip checked him and he fell off the chair.
"Hello Brother."
She said, sweetly and then giggled, helping him up.

Right as the bell rang, Della had picked up her bag, stuffed her notebook and pen inside, and trotted out of the room, waving to Sebsies before she left. Her heels clicking rhythmically along the floor as she walked, a grin on her face. That had been a rather short period, or maybe it just seemed like it had been so short because she had missed nearly all of it. Either way, it was nice.
Flouncing excitedly into Landon Hall, she made her way over to where Noelle and Sébastien were sitting, the butterflies in her stomach kicked into overdrive again. She watched as Noelle knocked him off of the chair, holding a hand to her mouth to stop from laughing out loud at the display. "That was beautiful, Noe." She said as she reached them, flopping down in one of the other plush chairs that were unoccupied.
"How was your first period?" There was a hint of concern in her voice, she hadn't seen Carter in any of the other rooms she had passed, and suspected they had been in the same class. Pulling an apple out of her purse, she took a small bite as she waited for a reply, glancing over at Sébastien once and then looking away quickly. God, why was he so darned cute? She was surprised it wasn't considered a sin, being THAT desirable.

Noelle laughed when Della sat down.
"I know, I try."
She said with a sarcastic grin. Sébastien laughed and sat on the chair opposite of his sister and Della. Noelle looked at Della and then back down at her fingers.
"I was in Science with Carter..."
She trailed off, not needing to explain the rest. Carter probably hated her, but she wouldn't budge.
"... and Steffy and Darin and, erm, Cayden,"
She said, blushing slightly even at the mention of his name.
"It was okay,"
She lied.
"How was your guys' class?"

"Hey, Noe! Hey, Sebs! Hey, Della!" Allegra called to them from across the dining hall, walking over to the usual lunching spot, the smalls heels on her shoes tapping against the hardwood floor and, she was sure, leaving lovely little welts. "Interesting AP lit class, huh?" She grinned at Sébastien and Della. "Anyway, it was hilarious!" She turned her attention back to Noelle. "We got Mr. Blackwell and I spent half the period writing notes to Sebs here. And, missy over there," She paused to nod her head in the direction of Della. "Missed most of the class for God knows what reason."
"Which reminds me! Why were you late, Della?"

Della raised an eyebrow, nodding as Noelle said the name Carter. She didn't have to say anymore for Della to understand and shoot her a sympathetic smile. At the mention of the others, especially her brother, Della raised an eyebrow, giggling softly as she saw the blush already rising in Noelle's cheeks. "Ah, I see. Sounds interesting." She said with a wink, pulling her legs up so that they were over the arm of the chair and resting her head on the other arm.
As Allegra walked in, Della grinned, waving to her and then laughing as she asked about why Del had been so late. "Yeah, I was late for class, really late..." She told Noelle, laughing again softly. "I basically got sidetracked talking to that one lady who works in the cafe nearby, and Blackwell was not amused." She summarized, laughing softly as she explained. She wasn't the type who usually got into any sort of trouble, but this year seemed a bit different.

Noelle laughed and smiled at Allegra. Sébastien grinned when he saw Allegra, still getting that funny feeling in his stomach. Though now, Every time he heard or saw Della, his heart pounded in his rib cage, and he had no idea why. He didn't talk much to Della in class because he left her tongue tied, and he was afraid to say anything stupid. Allegra, on the other hand, was easier to talk to which he liked. Even though Sébastien was sort of a rebel, he didn't feel comfortable when something was foreign to him, and the feelings he had when he was around Della were definitely different.

"So, guys, I was thinking about throwing a party as a little... beginning of the year kick off."
Noelle said with a small wink, smiling.

Della grinned as Noelle mentioned having a party, nodding her head enthusiastically and grinning again. "Yes, beautiful way to kick off the year!' She exclaimed, clasping her hands together with a smile. That would give her more of an opportunity to be around Sébastien without getting weird. She would be calm, alcohol made her calm. She could picture it already, everything would be perfect!
"Who will be invited?" She asked, pulling out her notebook and getting ready to start actually planning everything.

After the bell rang, she went straight for Landon Hall. She pushed open the door, looking around. Slightly disappointed, but her mood quickly changed when she saw her friends. She walked towards them, calling "Hey pretties!" before seeing Sebs, "and Sebs" she quickly added, laughing. She remembered that Sebestian was Darin's room mate and thought about asking him where he was. She got that thought out of her head, "stupid idea" she muttered before sitting down.
Seeing that everyone was so excited, she raised her eyebrows knowingly, "Party?" she grinned.

Post by Derrick Black on Dec 3, 2009 19:00:47 GMT -8
Derrick came strutting through the dining hall, nodding at all the girls with his usual charming smile. Every now and then he'd stop and lean against a table occupied by some girls and chat with them for a moment, until he looked up to see something else that caught his attention making him move on. He then saw the old group that consisted of Noelle and everyone else. He put on his charming smile and made his way over.
He slowly sat down on the arm of Noelle's chair and nodded to everyone. "Sup guys. So yeah, I couldn't help but hearing you were going to throw a party. You were planning on inviting me I hope. Wouldn't be a party without me." As usual he had to throw in some comment to bring about how perfect and amazing he thought he was. He then looked down at Noelle. "And Noelle, when you going to take me up on that date?" He knew Noelle never agreed or even made it sound possible about a date, but Derrick wasn't the type to ask just once.

Noelle looked at Della, her brow raised.
"Della everyone is invited... Except for freshies."
She said, laughing. When she saw Steffy, she smiled.
"Mhmm. we're throwing one of our legendary Channing parties. I already blogged about it."
She said, excitedly.

Cayden loped lazily into Landon Hall, his laptop bag slung over his shoulder and the tie he was wearing slung sloppily around his neck. He had never been the best at tying ties, and had just decided to give up last year. Not that he didn't look good though. He could pull off a sloppy look with the tie, because the rest of him usually looked pretty good, maybe even a bit above average. A grin came over his face as he saw his sister and friends all sitting around, walking over to join them and dumping his laptop bag on top of Della, causing her to glare at him momentarily before picking it up and placing it on the floor.
"Do you mind, Caydie boy? We're trying to plan a party." She said, sticking her tongue out at him like a child would and then laughing. "I know that, Noe, I mean, I figured, but you know I like to plan things, so I want to write it all down. I don't care how many people there are here, they have to be on my list to get in."
Cayden shrugged, pulling a chair up to join in the little circle they had started to create, a smile on his face. "Party? Who's idea?" He asked, turning to look at Noelle. She was usually the culprit for this sort of scheme. He hoped she was okay after the whole Carter incident and the weird way she had disappeared halfway through Science. Derrick came up to join them, and Cayden nodded to him. The whole group was almost there, with the exception of the dreaded ex-best friend. That hadn't been a fun situation, but everything seemed to have smoothed over now.

Noelle smiled when she saw Derrik.
"DB."
She said cooly, smiling. She rolled her eyes and looked at him. She'd known Derrik since the seventh grade, and he always had a puppy dog crush on her. The thing about Derrik was that he was a huge ladies man. But everyone loved him all the same. Noelle laughed.
"Like I've been saying since the seventh grade, In your dreams, Black."
She said, jokingly.

When Noelle saw Cayden, her knees felt all wobbly like jell-o. She was lucky she was sitting down or she felt that she might have collapsed, right there and then. She smiled at Cayden slyly.
"Well, it's a Channing party."
She said, smiling. Noelle always put her friends first. She looked at Della prepared with her note pad and pen and giggled.
"Uhm, write down on the list the usual suspects... and anyone else you think is fun."
She said nonchalantly.
