-Quiet-Looking for a Boy

[xxsunshine]

Jackie walked through the halls of her dad's hotel. Mr. Jacobbs managed the Hilton located in Ranton. Jackie had always loved that her dad was involved with the Hilton hotels but he was always too busy for her. Jackie only had one more year of school left before she would be ready for the real world.

Once she could Jackie would be outta there. Living with her boyfriend. Whom she would hope to find. Its not like its easy for her to find the right guy. But she was a sensitive and fragile person, a very beautiful person.

Jackie heard a door slam and she jumped. She walked down the hallway to the elavator. She decided to go to her room and get on her bathing suit. Her most favorite place was the hotel pool. Her and her family lived in the hotel and thats what they called it. BUt before coming to Ranton Jackie lived in a different Hilton hotel.

Duke had to get out of this room. He was getting way to bored just sitting around. Watching T.V. was old now and there was nothing else to do. So, why not go to the pool? Isn't that why it was there?

Duke got his bathing suit out. It was just a plain light blue color. He didn't care about clothes so it was whatever. Duke got into the elevator and went down to the ground floor. Stepping off he looked around.

He walked towards the pool area. He sat down in a chair and watched. He seemed to the only one without someone. How much fun. So, now what?

Duke looked around for any familiar faces. He knew there was none. He was new around here. Just flew in from New York. He had to get away from his crazy step mother. That was all the family he had lefted. His real mom died in birth with him. His father was in a car crash ending his life along with his half sister. Now, his step mother was the only one lefted. He hated her but Duke would have to live though it.

Maybe change was a good thing? Who knew.

As Jackie popped out of the elevator with her swimsuit on. She always though she looked nice in a bikini. Her bikini had roses on it. She walked through the doors to outside. It was beutiful out probably around 90 degrees. She saw the most cutest guy she had ever seen sitting in a chair. Jackie rose out of her skin blushing as she walked over to him. She was a very shy person but had changed all of a sudden.

"Hello im Jacklyn." she smiled and put her hand out as he shook it. "How do you like the hotel, my dad owns it so i hope you are having a nice stay here." Jackie added in that she hoped he was having a nice stay. Those here the words her father would say to everyone who passes by him. It always made Jackie swell up with laughter.

She shortly waited for his response waiting to hear his voice.

Duke looked over at the girl who was standing there. He turned to face. Wow she is beautiful. That was the only thought running though Duke's head.

Duke looked into Jacklyn's eyes. He wanted to marry her right then and there. She didn't even know his name though. How smooth of him to look at her like an idiot.

"I am having a good stay. I am Duke." Duke said as he started to love this hotel now. So, the owner as nice and the hotel appeared to be a five star to Duke. All he liked was this beautiful girl, name Jacklyn. How he was glad he came to the pool now.

OCC: Sorry.. My dad is bugging me to get off. So, short post but I will post tomorrow..

[xxsunshine]

He was so hott!! "Thats a lovely name Duke, you are one handsome boy you know." She can't believe what popped out of her mouth. She was beginning to toy with his knee for some odd reason. "What brings you here to the hotel? Are you here with anyone special perhaps a girlfriend?" she couldn't think of a better way to ask if he was single.

She twirled her hair trying to look sexy. She had a way of doing that. She hoped to be appealing him. Someday he could e her future. She laughed, wow is this really her prince charming? "Im glad you are having a well stay." She smiled at him.

Occ: Sry its short as well i have to go my mum is killin me here!

[lilo]

Duke stood up so he wouldn't feel so short sitting down. Duke also felt short just because most guys his age were in the six feet area and he was only five-nine. So, maybe if he stood up it make him fell less... Short.

Duke smiled as he looked at her. "Your not so bad looking yourself." The words flow out of Duke's month like a waterfall. Duke heard himself say it that he just wanted to slap himself. It wasn't bad but Duke didn't say that to a new girl he just met.

Duke looked at the hotel door to see if Mr. Owner was there. Nope. It was safe to keep talking. Some father's wouldn't let their daughters in five feet range of a boy. So, maybe Jacklyn's father hated his daughter with boys.

Duke looked back and smiled again. "I am here because school is starting soon; Ranton High. Yes, I am single. What about yourself?" Duke ask.

[xxsunshine]

"Why thank you." She was becoming so excited bythe second. Would he want more? There were only a few ways of finding this out. She swept her hair over her shoulder. She saw him look around. Probably for daddy she thought. "Dont worry my father isn't at the hotel right now he is away for the school year at the other one we own back home. I only go back home for the beginning duration of the summer." Jackie still had a house back in California. It was a nice home where it was built accross from the beach and the Hilton resort her father also owned. Her mom was back home too until the school year ended. Then her dad came back to Ranton to check up on things and take Jackie back home for 2 months of the summer.

"Yes i am single and looking for the right guy, would you like to take a chance with me? Say tonight at 8?" Yup, she made the move. As Jackie is becoming a new person blossoming every day. "I am going to Ranton High as well, i would LOVE to see you there." Maybe just maybe she really would see him. In her mind her thoughts roamed from place to place seeing him wait for her by her locker. Dreams. She sighed.

[lilo]

Duke looked around. He didn't want a girlfriend right now and nor did he want to go on a date. He wanted to be single for a first few days of school just to keep his mind on that. He was a freshmen so he thought it would be best to keep single and his head focus, just for awhile.

Duke looked at his feet. Here was a beautiful girl asking him to go out tonight but he was being stupid and going to reject her. All he wanted was for her to understand. Maybe she did or maybe she didn't. Duke didn't know which one. All he could do was hope for the best.

Duke looked back up at her. His face smile less as he looked into her eyes. "I'm sorry but going into high school.. I just gotta keep my head clear for the first week. Can I take a rain check though?" Duke said as he looked at her. He knew that she would be always on his mind so it was no point. At least he was trying to make a good first impression to the high school and his teachers.

[xxsunshine]

Jackie felt terribly embarrased. She looked down hoping he wasn't ashamed of meeting her. He was sweet though. And highly responsible. That was great. She had hoped he would be someone like that. But you know they could be friends.

"Oh, well i am very sorry." She said studdering her voice in zig zags. "I hope we can still hang around together. I am usually seen everywhere in this hotel!

OCC: Sorry bad muse -bleh-

[lilo]

OOC: Sorry, I was grounded from the computer. I am back now.

Duke looked down at the ground. He felt sorry but he didn't know what else to do. He was tossed here and told to go to school after his father died in the so called accident. To Duke, it was plan. After all, everything his father did that day was plan by his step mother.

"Sorry, I really just have to have to keep my mind straight." Duke said. He was trying to get a better life then his family has now. The only way he knew to make his his goal possible was to do well in school. Bombing 8th grade wasn't a good start but he was going to try.

Duke looked back up at Jackie. He didn't know what else to say. He really thought she was cute but he needed a future. A way out of his life now. A way from his so called family. Maybe that is why he was here. To get away.

"We came for the pool so let's go" Duke said as he walked over to the pool's deep end. He jumped in like he had been around water all his life. Which was weird. Duke hated the ocean. The pool was alright but he would only swim if he was bored.
