justin stretched out his leg, resting his weight just above his knee as he began his cool down routine he did everything. sweat was dripping down every inch of his body. god that had been a good workout. that’s was one of the perks of his job, he could do all his training and work-outs for free all in one place. he peered at his watch. it was quite late. there weren’t going to be any students or staff wandering round the school at this time. justin peeled off his shirt and tucked it into his trousers in order to try and cool himself off a bit. he finished his stretches and turned to leave the gym, switching off the lights before grabbing the keys from his shorts pockets and bolting the gym door. as soon as his body hit the coldness of the hallways justin felt much better.
it felt so strange wandering down these halls. everything had felt strange ever since he had got back. nothing had really changed in the small town of trinity since he had returned and yet everything seemed so unfamiliar. justin hadn’t bothered to get in touch with any of his old friends just yet. he wanted to get himself sorted. get his story straight before having to explain where he’d been and what had he been up to since he left. he knew he’d have to face it some time. he knew he’d have to tell all his friends that his parents had been killed. then he would get it. the dreaded sympathy. justin knew people were just trying to be kind but he couldn’t deal with sympathy. that’s what made him upset. that’s what reminded him of the pain and guilt he felt everyday. he hadn’t had to deal with it in a while. the initial few weeks were hard. flowers at the door, people coming in to check on you, seeing if you were alright. justin had to lock himself away and that’s when he got depressed, that’s when…. suddenly, due to lack of concentration, justin bumped into someone and instinctively gripped her arms to stop her falling over. “I’m sorry miss are you okay?” he asked, looking down at her with concern.

[/color][/style][/style][/style] Acadia was not one to spend a lot of time on campus after hours. However, that day she was shadowing one of the counselors who was having a lot to do. She got to see how they handled the students' files and reviewing performance in classes and everything. It was not skills she would really need as a counselor somewhere else; but, if she was going to continue to work at St. Helena's, it could be useful. Cade was not sure of where she wanted to teach, but she guessed that St. Helena's was as good a place as any, despite peoples' generally negative view of the place, at least toward the students. As a teen she had not been allowed to hang out with the students from St. Helena's; but, now that she was working there her parents were so proud. It disgusted her, really. The young woman was so lost in her thoughts, that she was not even aware there was someone else in the halls until she collided with them, making her almost lose her balance, but the other staff member steadied her before she did. Her gaze immediately shot up at the familiar voice she had not heard in ages. "Justin?" she questioned before laughing softly at the fact that it really was Justin. She had never been really close to him, though she grew up with him over at the house a lot, at least until he moved away. Justin was a friend of her older brother's, someone that she was used to having around without really being a friend of his. Though, she guessed they could have been considered friends since there were a few times that the two of them would talk. She was never all that open with him, though; after all, he was Jarred's friend. "What're you doing here? You're back? When did you get back? Does Jarred know? [/color][/b]" Acadia knew she was asking a bunch of questions all at once, but she could not really stop them. Cade was torn between wanting and not wanting to hug Justin. She was never an overly physically affectionate person, but she had missed the guy. At the same time, they had never been all that close so it had the potential to just be weird. Acadia did not want that. After a moment, though, she could not help herself and she hugged Justin tightly. It was really nice to see a familiar face in a place so new to her. It was almost a relief, if she was honest. She did not feel so alone. The young woman enjoyed getting to know new people and everything; but, there was just something good about having at least one familiar person.

Justin looked down at the big brown familiar eyes staring up at him. acadia. Jarred’s little sister. she looked so different. her long brown hair falling majestically down the side of her face, her rd lips curved into a smile. she was so grown up. so different to when justin last saw her. now justin wasn’t going to deny the fact that out of all jarred’s family acadia was definitely the cutest but he was jarred’s sister. jarred’s little sister at that so there was no way he could ever make a move. and anyway they’d never really sat down and had a full blown conversations. Just a little chit chat here and there and an occasional taunting from his part, an occasional punch on the arm from here. nothing big. he never ever thought that she’d be the one he’d first bump in to when he returned. As justin he looked at acadia, a smirk just spread to his lips and he said the first thing that came to his head. ”woah rose, haven’t you grown!” he chuckled softly to show he was only being a tease. he knew it was a bold move to tease the only familiar face around here but he did know acadia well enough to know she’d take it in good jest, even if he did get a punch here and there.
as justin was bombarded with questions, he shook his head, unable to hold a smirk of his face. why was he so happy? was it the familiarity of acadia that relaxed him, that made him feel at ease? Maybe that’s just what he needed, a friendly face, someone to talk to. “woah woah wait acadia. I can’t answer a million questions at once.” justin paused to quickly formulate a story in his head. “well….” he began. “no I haven’t managed to catch up with jarred yet. wanted to get everything sorted, do something first before I start building up my old life you know? I haven’t been here long though. and erm…. as you can see, I’m a teacher. i was doing gym last period.” justin indicated his naked torso and shorts and shrugged with a smirk on his face. he wondered if he’d changed much since he was last here. you wouldn’t have called him good looking before and justin would say he has definitely matured well. he guessed the only thing that had changed a lot was his body. when he moved away he had really started working out, building up a lot of muscle which was only intensified by his parents death when he would go to the gym as some sort of release. now he wasn’t like a body builder but he guessed his body was pretty good. “anyway enough about me. how are you? how’s life been without me coming round and annoying you? and what are you up to? damn now I’m the one asking all the questions” he said with a grin on his face.

[/color][/style][/style][/style] She scoffed as he called her "Rose" and knocked his shoulder lightly with her hand. "Don't call me that, jerk," she replied instinctively, using the same phrase she's always used when he would call her by her middle name, knowing it annoyed her. It almost made her wish to be a teen again, almost. She enjoyed being an adult. It gave her a lot more freedom to be... well, just be. She did not live at home anymore, which meant she did not have to follow her mother's strict rules. It was a nice change. Cade definitely enjoyed it. "woah woah wait acadia. I can’t answer a million questions at once." Acadia laughed softly and smiled sheepishly at his response, biting her lip lightly for a moment. She listened silently as he answered her questions and nodded a little. She could see wanting to get things on track. If she had been gone for a long while, she probably would have done the same. Maybe. She was not exactly sure. It was not something she really thought too much about, though. She glanced down a little when Justin gestured to himself. She did not let her eyes linger too long, though she could already feel that feeling in her stomach, the one she used to get whenever Justin was around. That schoolgirl crush had not faded as she thought; it had apparently only been dormant, because Acadia found herself really wanting to kiss the man in front of her, as she had wanted to do many times over the years. She laughed softly as he returned the many questions, and released him from the tight hug she had given him, reaching up to brush her hair back out of her eyes. "I've been good, studying the university. I'm a student teacher here, interning as well," she answered with a nod. It was odd to get used to, knowing that she was no longer a student (well, not high school anyway) as she walked the halls of an academic building. "Almost thought you were never gonna come back up this way and see us. 'M sure Jarred will be very glad to see you. He's engaged, now, d'you know that? Clear... Myron? The girl from the grade beneath you guys. Yeah, they started dating a while back." Acadia was not sure what she thought of her brother's fiance, but she was nice enough to the elder girl. Cade would never be rude to her siblings' significant others. After all, she was not the one that had to like them. She did not expect them to like whoever she ended up with, if she ever settled down. Cade was really unsure if she ever would have the happiness they had. She had never even known love, whereas they had many times by her age. Ah well. She guessed she was just the odd one out. "D'you make it a habit to wander the halls without a shirt on, Mr. Davis? Not sure that it's a norm, even for a gym teacher. Trying to impress someone?" Acadia teased with a soft smile as she absently shifted her weight to one side.

Justin laughed at Acadia’s reaction. Oh god it was way too easy to wind her up. As he tapped his shoulder lightly, Justin clutched it in mock pain, teasing her further. His stuck out his bottom lip like a child pretending to be in a sulk. “That really hurt y’know.” He could no longer hold his act and broke into a cheeky schoolboy grin. He felt like such a child again and it felt so good. He hadn’t had this sort of friendly banter in what seemed like years and it was fun to see Acadia also revert part to her childish ways. I've been good, studying the university. I'm a student teacher here, interning as well Justin raised an eyebrow. He was impressed and very pleased for Acadia. He couldn’t believe the coincidence that the pair of them had picked the same school to work at. Justin found his eyes surveying the figure in front of him. Had he always had this feeling in his stomach whenever he saw Acadia? It felt like he was back at High School, a little school boy crush on the prettiest girl in the school. Justin couldn’t lie to himself. Acadia was now insanely attractive and he found the butterflies in his stomach growing stronger as their conversation went on. He just wanted to hug Acadia and maybe even kiss her. No this was ridiculous. He was an adult now. He didn’t have silly school boy crushes. Justin suddenly realised he was biting his lip, something he did when he was having an internal battle with himself. He quickly released it, cursing to himself and wondering how long he’d been doing that for.
"Almost thought you were never gonna come back up this way and see us. 'M sure Jarred will be very glad to see you. He's engaged, now, d'you know that? Clear... Myron? The girl from the grade beneath you guys. Yeah, they started dating a while back."Jarred engaged? “Oh the little bugger. We’d always have arguments about who was going to find that special girl first. I always thought it’d be me somehow. Jarred didn’t seem like the settling type.” Justin tried to picture the girl who Jarred was engaged to. Suddenly it clicked. “Her? Ugh he could have done better. Shit. Sorry. Don’t tell him I said that and sorry if you’re like best friends or something… oh man I’m an idiot.” Justin shook his head in embarrassment, he should really think before he spoke out loud. It had just been instinctive. He did feel so at ease with Acadia. He felt he could tell her anything really which was stupid because he hardly knew the girl. God what was happening to him? “Please don’t tell me you’re engaged or something too. That’d really make me feel like a complete and utter unwanted idiot. I haven’t even been in love yet. I mean who wouldn’t love this beautiful face?” he teased, stroking the side of his face as if he was the vision of perfection before bursting into laughter. Even he couldn’t keep up the ‘egotistical jerk’ act. D'you make it a habit to wander the halls without a shirt on, Mr. Davis? Not sure that it's a norm, even for a gym teacher. Trying to impress someone? Justin laughed and shook his head. “Honestly I didn’t think there would be anyone here at this time and I’d just done a work-out so I was really hot so I just thought it’d be nicer to keep my shirt off.” Justin shrugged his shoulders, with a smirk on his face. “Why Miss Potter, were you looking?” he teased back, smirking at her.

[/color][/style][/style][/style] "Oh, whatever, it did not," replied Acadia with a scoff as she flicked her bangs out of her eyes. She knew that Justin was teasing, as was she, which was evident in her voice. Still, it amused her, because she knew that if she had honestly wanted to, she probably could have hurt him and pretty easily. Cade was not some wimpy little girly girl that did not know how to throw a punch. Her brothers saw well to that. There was no way they were going to let her go through college, or even high school without being able to properly defend herself should the need arise. After all, big brothers could not always be there. She could not keep from laughing softly as Justin seemed surprised that Jarred had settled down. Cady really was not all that surprised. She knew her brother well, and had always pegged him as being like the rest of her family; quick to settle down. She was the only one who had yet to even have a decent relationship. Her siblings were all engaged or married, and her parents married young. It made her feel like she was running out of time; but, she did not want to just settle for someone she did not really love, either. "Don't worry about it, I don't like her, either," Acadia replied with a shake of her head and a slight frown. Honestly, she loved her brother dearly. She just hoped that he was not making a mistake. She did not want him stuck in a relationship he really just wanted to get out of. That would break him. She frowned a little more at that thought. She really just had to hope for the best, she guessed. Maybe he would come to his senses, or Clear would prove them all wrong. Acadia laughed softly as she shook her head when Justin asked if she was engaged, too. "No, not even close." She had never been in love, and there was no way she was going to marry for any reason except for love. It just would not happen. Cade was not that type of person."I mean who wouldn’t love this beautiful face?" Acadia hummed softly as if thinking it over, tilting her head to the side slightly as she looked him over before shrugging as she stood up straight again. "I dunno. Me, possibly," she replied, her voice showing that she was just teasing. Honestly, she had more than once thought that she could easily see herself falling for someone like Justin. Of course, that could just be that silly schoolgirl crush talking, too. She would not dwell on that too much, otherwise she would end up blushing or something out of character. Justin did not need to be let in on her thoughts anytime soon, if at all. No, she planned on keeping those to herself. "Well, you can't blame a girl for lookin', can ya?" she replied, struggling to keep a straight face as she grinned at him, rather obviously looking him over, if only for show, though she rather enjoyed it in all honesty. Justin really did look good; he always had. Cady laughed softly and tucked a loose strand of hair behind an ear before she said, "D'you wanna go grab some coffee or something?" She almost asked if he wanted to go get a drink, meaning alcohol obviously; but, that would probably not end up so well, and Cade really did not want to have to monitor herself if she was going to drink. She was known for being a bit clingy, and up close and personal when she had alcohol in her system. It was honestly the easiest way into her bed, getting her liquored up. A few people had figured that out already, but Cady really did try to keep that as infrequent as possible.
