the carnival {everyone!}

[Sean Collins]

"Nice to meet you, Jordan." Sean smiled, and then he looked towards James. Sean's jaw dropped. Sean and James talked a few times, but not enough to really get to know each other. "James Martin?" Sean asked, and James nodded. "Long time no see!" Sean laughed. "What a small freaking world! How's it going?" This was crazy. Who thought that after meeting someone in Europe, he would come into contact with them in California again.

[James Martin]

James couldn't believe that Sean was here. "Yeah, great besides the fact that its my first day here and I've already been punched in the face. What about you? How have you been?" "How long's it been.. two years?". He paused, thinking about it. Yeah, two years. Wow. The boys hadn't spoken much, but when they did they got along quite well. James was so glad that Sean was here. At least he knew someone. "Your.. friend over here took good care of me." He said pointing to Ellie, "Running around getting me ice packs and everything. Making a fuss over me." He grinned. He thought she might be his girlfriend but he didn't want to make a mistake of it and make it hell awkward.

[Sean Collins]

"You got punched?" Sean's jaw dropped again, and he quickly noticed the hurt on his face. "Feel better." He frowned, grabbing Ellie's hand. "Ellie always takes good care of everyone." Sean smiled, looking towards her. "I still can't believe you're here! How's everything at home? What are you doing here?" He asked.

[James Martin]

Sean took Ellie's hand. Definitely more than friends. "I live here now. What about you? I can't believe you're here too!" He said. "How long you been here? Look enough to get yourself a little girlfriend I see.". James smiled.

[Sean Collins]

"Seriously? That's crazy! I live here too!" Sean laughed, a grin spreading across his face. "Just a few weeks..." Sean grinned looking at Ellie. "Hey, I'm sure you'll get one soon enough. You were all over the girls back at boot camp!"

[James Martin]

James let out a loud laugh. "Hope so man.". Ellie let go of Sean's had and moved over to speak to the other girl with them, Charlie. He had to admit, both girls were really attractive. "Good work on that one." He said, quietly. Truth be told, James had thought about making a move on Ellie as soon as he met her.. but he didn't have to know that. His eyes went back over to the two girls, appraising the two girls looks. James quickly looked back at Sean. He didn't want Sean to know that he was checking out his girlfriend and her friend. That may not be the best thing.

[Sean Collins]

"She's amazing." Sean laughed, watching Ellie and Charlie talk. Sean glanced back and forth between James and the two girls, and James definitely had that look on his face. "What're you doing man?" Sean asked, scrunching his eyebrows together. "I just told you Ellie and I were dating...but Charlie's all yours...but you know about Ellie and I." Sean folded his arms across his chest.

[Charlie Hudson]

"So I think someone was right about you and sean..but hmm..who could that be?Who could've possible guessed that you two would be together?" Charlie laughed, teasing Ellie. Jordan was still standing with me. He was probably so bored, but I don't know how I'd fix that.

[James Martin]

[HAHA I FORGOT THAT JORDAN WAS THERE. Poor Jordan.]

Oh, crap. He'd pissed him off. "N-No, I wasn't looking at her. I was looking at Charlie." He said quietly. That was true.. to some degree. He didn't want to be in another fight on his first day. His eyes went back to Ellie and Charlie. Charlie also had a guy beside her. Was she with him? He wondered. The guy wasn't even being spoken to yet he was still hanging around to her like a fly. He figured the guy must be into her.

[Ellie Mankelow]

Ellie grinned at her friend. "Ah, I know I know!" "Oh Charlie, it's just been so amazing with him.". She was absolutely buzzing. Ellie looked over at James and Sean. Sean had his arms crossed, something she noticed he did when he was pissed off. James on the other hand, was looking over in our direction. He must have been checking out Charlie. "Charlie, James is totally checking you out.". Ellie looked over at Jordan, and saw him flinch and looked towards James. Ellie was right. Jordan was so into her and James was definitely checking her out. "I'll be back.". She walked back over to Sean, "Are you alright?" She whispered, quiet enough that James wouldn't be able to hear.

[Sean Collins]

Sean nodded a little, not wanting to argue any more today. He already did enough of that with Sienna. "Well just keep in mind that Ellie's taken." He whispered, running his hand through his hair. Ellie came over towards Sean, and whispered quiet enough so James wouldn't hear. "Yeah, I'm fine." Sean put a smile on his face. "Having fun with Charlie?" He asked, hoping to switch the conversation topic.

[Ellie Mankelow]

"You're not fine.". Ellie knew more than anyone how easier it was to just fake a smile and wave it off as if nothing was wrong. "Please, tell me what's wrong.".

"But yes. I am. I had a laugh about the fact that James is totally checking her out." She said answering his avoid the topic question.

[/size]

[Charlie Hudson]

This was absolutely awkward. Charlie wasn't going to assume that Jordan liked her, but the fact that James was checking her out was..odd. She looked at Jordan. "This probably isn't as much fun as you imagined." She explained. "Are your basketball buddies here?" She asked.

[/blockquote]

[Sean Collins]

"Nothing's wrong!" Sean said, before letting Ellie speak. "That's actually what's wrong." He laughed slightly, turning his back to James incase he was for some reason eavesdropping. "Don't judge me, but I thought he was checking you out." Sean whispered, looking around to see if James was anywhere near them.

[Ellie Mankelow]

She laughed. "You're silly. Of course he wasn't. But I think it's really cute that you'd care so much if he was." Ellie grinned. She turned back to look at Charlie, who was now talking to Jordan again. Good. She then looked at James who was staring at Sean and herself. Oddly enough, she felt uncomfortable with it. Ellie knew he hadn't been checking her out before but now that Sean had said it, she felt weird when he looked at her. Weird. She looked back at Sean.
