She stood in silence, she stood in thought. If this was home why was she so restless, if this was home why did she have nowhere to go? Did she ever really have a home, or just a house? She wanted to leave but where would she go? She was sick of questions, sick of everything. Through all these thoughts, nothing ruffled the serenity of her expression. She looked around the bare street, it wasnt a sorry sight but there wasnt much to see either. She longed for amuse but wasnt going to seek it out. Life seemed to lose its meaning at this point.
She was new to this area and didnt know anyone who reseded there but herself. She wasnt eager to meet people, just to maybe see another lost soul. She stood in silence waiting for the faintest sign of life to appear, for she found none in herself, nor in her sad surroundings. A crow flew overhead and gave a shriek. Its muscular wings pushed it against the force holding it down. If only she could defy all her troubles, to break free and just fly away...if only....if only....

This was the perfect picture of tranquility. The sounds of waves laping lazily upon the bank, birds crying out as they flew overhead and every once and a while, the sound of a boat or foghorn, breaking the gentle song. Mingled with these notes was the turning of pages, as a boy read from a novel. Fingers grasped the edge of another page, turning them feircely, as if daring the book to lead him on another quest.
Deep in his book, Kyle Harper yawned. Pausing, he pushed a stray lock of hair from his bright eyes. Gaze swept over the harbour as he surveyed his surroundings. He spotted the girl sho stood a ways off, and debated whether or not he should call out to her.

Her eyes scanned all before her. Momentarily she felt as if in complete peace. The the past flooded her mind, releasing the peace-or rather forcing it out-. Her calm, pale voids spotted those of a boys and met them momentarily. She thought for a moment that she had seen him before but her memory on this subject was clouded.

He smiled shyly to the girl, feeling his cheeks burn with embaressment. His gaze returned to his book, but he was well aware she had noticed him. Nervously, he tossed her a sideways glance.

It was at that moment that Daphne paused from flipping through the colorful pages of her scrapbook. She had sworn she heard a hint of laughter on the harbour's winds. Turning away from the pastel horizon, Daphne noticed a girl and boy exchanging glances down the peer a ways from where she was. One of her favorite things to do was to only imagine what was going through their minds. Did they know each other? Did they go to her school? Her normal outgoing self would approach them. But right now, her entire mind, soul, and body were still in Hawaii. The new place hadn't sunk in yet. She feared it never would...

Kyle sighed, slipping from his crosslegged position on a waterside bench. Hoping his nerves were not to obvious, he brushed a lock of hair from his eyes. "Stupid hair.." He mumbled to himself. It always got in his eyes! Brushing dirt from the seat of his jeans, he moved slowly toward the girl he had exchanged glances with. His voids studied her for a moment, as movement ceased a few paces from her. "Ah, hey." He greeted shyly.

She tooked upon the boy curiously 'Hey...' She replied. She gathered herself and asked 'Are you new?' She was fairly new and didnt know many people yet. 'And, I am Jenna by the way.' She said sencerely. She shook her head a little, to mover her own hair away from her eyes.

"Yes, I'm new." Smiling, he extended his hand. "Kyle Harper."
(( sorry, writers block ))

As she studied the boy's sheepish responses to the girl, Daphne drew the conclusion that the two had obviously never met before. The other girl seemed to have no interest in him. At least he's brave enough to approach her... She thought, feeling incredibly pitiful. It wasn't like her to be an outcast, especially in a brand new place. But she could only imagine herself walking up to the pair and awkwardly stating, "Hey, I'm Daphne." Then there would be silence after the trio ran out of things to say after exchanging shy greetings. Returning to reality from complete La La Land, Daphne sighed and let her feet hang over the edge of the peer.

Kyle sighed, a cold breeze blowing from the water. He shivered. Then, feeling a gaze upon him, he turned to face Daphne. Smiling he waved to her. "Hey!" Voice was stable enough, but it was kind of akward, being the only guy here. Turning back to Jenna, he spoke. "So, what dorm are you in?" Then he hastily added. "You are going to the boarding school here, right?"

Feeling slightly embarrassed after being acknowledged by the boy, Daphne rose to leave, but then hesitated. In order to head back to Kensington, she would have to pass the duo who were standing only feet away. Something as simple as walking back to her dorm suddenly became so difficult. Gathering what little courage she had, Daphne gathered her things into her shoulder bag and got up. She wouldn't answer the boy's greeting. Only walk past him, bashfully. The plan wasn't exactly polite and it completely contradicted Daphne's usual talkative personality, but hey. She didn't know them. And she'd probably never see them again. Right as she walked past, she tripped on her shoelace and fell to the wooden planks of the pier. Her body turned over and a groan escaped her lips. She ended up lying on her back, facing up to the boy and girl.

The thunk of the girl falling to the ground awakened the boy from his daydreaming and he glanced down toward Daphne. "Are you alright?" he gasped, kneeling beside her. He looked up toward Jenna just long enough to reply. "Earth." Looking again to Daphne, Kyle bit his lip. What was he suppost to do?

"Aggh.." She sighed, rubbing the knot on her head. "Yea, I'm fine." While getting herself up and collecting her things, she managed to squeak nervously, "Thanks."
It was at that moment her eyes glanced up to look at him for the first time. He was awfully handsome. For once, Daphne was actually at a complete loss for words. "I, um... well, yea, I... I'm Daphne." Her checks were burning red after falling in front of them. Trying to hide her redness, she attempted looking down.
