A song and dance [Scarlet;Open]

[Jay Davies]

Jay sat on the edge of the stage, his legs dangling off the edge. He mouth was curiously devoid of a cigarette. He stared accusingly at the culprit of this, the smoke alarm that he couldn't quite reach. He assumed that it must get turned off for a lot of performances, because they used smoke, but right now it was on, or so he assumed, and there were two things he didn't want. The first was to risk setting it off, and the second was to move somewhere else. Therefore it was the alarm's fault.

He kicked his Vans clad feet againt the stage, his thin legs, wrapped in skinnies banging them also. On top today, he had a T-shirt, with a fightstar hoodie on top, to ward off the cold, and to conceal his arms. His face didn't hae any makepu on, but his hair was nice and crazy, just how he liked it. He sighed, wanting to smoke one of the marlboros in his pocket, then leaned over and picked up the falcon acoustic guitar laying next to him. He lay it across his lap, and picked the bottom E, fiddling with the peg till it was in tune. He repeated this for all the others, then strummed them with his fingernail. Jay reached into his pocket and pulled out his favourite pick, the holographic Nightmare before Chrismtas one, and wondered which song to play. Finally he strummed a chord, then began to play a rather a hawthorne heights song.

"The Time has come now
When we must figure out
Driving north or going south
Growing up or falling down
And as we pull ourselves together,
We can't help but be torn apart
And we'll alwyas have eachother
Just like it was from the start.

When five become four
And four become one
You're not just passing on
You're passing on all the fun we had
You made us laugh
We only cried but once
You made us laugh
In photographs, on display for everyone"

Jay finished and sat there, thinkingjust revelling in the aftermath of a song well done. Then he heard footsteps approaching...

[Scarlet Fernando]

Scarlet was walking along the halls behind the theater when she heard an acoustic guitar playing, and a voice softly singing her favourite Hawthorne Heights song. Wandering into the vast space of the theater, she saw a thin frame sat on the edge of the stage, hunched over a guitar, and she found she couldn't help but hum along as she wandered over.

Scarlet recognised this boy as Jay, the guitarist of a school band. She'd only smiled at him a few times, and was a bit nervous to find herself alone with him, but she went and sat by him anyway, still humming. She waited until he'd finished playing, before speaking. "That's my favourite song, you know" she smiled, and bashfully pushed her hair out of her eyes - a nervous habit. "Do you know Ohio Is For Lovers?".

((O.O.C sorry it's short, can't think -__-))

[Jay Davies]

Jay saw a prettygirl, with bright red hair come wandering over. Whereas in the past he'd been embarrassed by his singing, he was now quite proud of it. "It is?" he said smiling. "Well I'm glad I made you happy." he said, giving a flirty smile. He recognised her as Scarlet, a girl who coiuld sometimes be seen with Taylor's sort of crew. Probably similar cliques, Jay told himself. "Yeah I do know it. But I get tired playing,. What would I get in return?" Jay ased with a coy smile.

[Scarlet Fernando]

Scarlet blushed softly and pushed hair hair out of her eyes again..she hadn't realised how much of a flirt Jay would be, and she felt herself easily flirting back. To such a blatent question that it the past would've sent her running, she found herself shifting closer, nuzzling her nose softly against his cheek and giving a teasing giggle. "Well I don't know..that would be kind of up to you wouldn't it? I mean..I don't know how much I'd have to do for you to ask such a..big..favour of you.." she smirked. "Or..I could even.." she paused softly "play it myself." and with no other warning, she lifted the guitar away from him and sat back, laughing.

[Jay Davies]

Jay laughed out loud, partly at the fact this quite small, pretty girl had just stolen his guitar, and partly because he was suprised at how readily she flirted with him. He jumped up, off the stage and onto the floor. "Go on then. Play" he said smiling. "By the way it's Scarlet isn't it?"

As he spoke he moved away from the stage, till he was a distance form the alarm, and pulled his pack of marlboro out of his pocket. He popped one in his mouth and lit it, inhaling deeply and smiling.

[Scarlet Fernando]

Scarlet smiled at Jay's laughter, and strummed a chord. When he asked her to play, she panicked slightly. "Yeah..uhh..can I play something other than Ohio Is For Lovers? I don't know it on guitar..I was bluffing in hope you'd play it!" she laughed at her awkwardness. "You're pretty good, actually" she flirted, smiling. When he checked her name, Scarlet felt a warmth run through her body, feeling proud that he'd asked. "Yeah it is. And you, I presume, are Mr Jay Davies?" she quirked, before settling down to play.

"Well you done done me and you bet I felt it
I tried to be chill but you're so hot that I melted
I fell right through the cracks, now I'm trying to get back

Before the cool done run out, I'll be giving it my bestest
And nothing's going to stop me but divine intervention
I reckon it's again my turn to win some or learn some"

Although she'd been scared about singing infront of Jay, and terrified about what he's think of her voice, she relaxed into the familiar song and sang a bit louder.

"But I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait, I'm yours

Well open up your mind and see like me
Open up your plans and damn you're free
Look into your heart and you'll find love love love love"

She smiled up at him, waiting uncertainly for a reaction, but not before wrinkling her nose at the cigarette that now rested between his lips. Scarlet had never tried smoking, but the smell reminded her of newly tarmacked roads, and they weren't exactley the nicest scent in the world.

[Jay Davies]

Jay smiled. "Well as I don't know what you'd do if I said no, I guess I will let you play something else. See, I'm a nice guy."
Taking a drag on his cigarette he blew the smoke out, attempting to make rings; he made blobs. "Awwww," he groaned dissapointedly. He giggled when she said he was good. "Actually?" he asked teasingly. "The tone of suprise?" he said laughing.

When she knew his name he pulled a slightly puzzled expression. This expression intensified when she began singing...he wasn't sure of the song. He waited till she'd finished playing, popped the fag in his mouth and clapped quietly. "Bravo," he said, exhaling smoke. "You sing well. What song was it?" he enquired. Due to the lack of a bin, Jay pulled the marlboro pack back out, and tossed the butt of his back in there. Then he went back over to Carlet, doing a cartwheel part way for good measure. "Wow," he said, almost to himself. "I did one while sober."


[Agent:2]

[Scarlet Fernando]

"Yeah...I guess you are.." Scarlet smirked, when Jay said he was a nice guy. He did seem to be after all..he was cute and played guitar..what else did you need in a guy, eh?

When Jay asked about the song, her smirk intensified. No way..are you telling me that the great Jay, guitar maestro of the Last Torniquet, doesn't recognise a song?!" she laughed. "Actually fair play, it's probably not quite your scene. It's 'I'm Yours' by Jason Mraz."

Scarlet giggled to herself at Jay's cartwheel, and applauded him. "I gave up gym in 3rd grade after twisting my ankle. Don't laugh! It hurt!" but despite her warning to him, laughed herself. So..what other tricks can you do monkey boy?"


[Agent:1]

[Jay Davies]

Jay smiled. "No, not quite my scene. So what wpould be your scend?" he asked curiosly.
Jay didn't laugh when she said about hurting her ankle. That is, he didn't laugh until she siad don't laugh. Then it burst out of him. "I can do quite a lot of tricks." he said smiling. "I can do more when i'm drunk though. But also there's also all the tricks that I can do that aren't really suitable for the public." he said with a little wink. "So have you heard us playing? The last torniquet?"

(O.O.C Sorry it's short....you rushed me )
