❝she was a beautiful dreamer.
the kind of girl who
kept her head in the clouds,
loved above the S T A R S
and left regret beneath the EARTH
she walked on.❞
“ figured i owed ye a compliment after the last party we hung out at. ” he gave an amused grin before habitually running his hand through his once nice, yet now messy hair. “ well yeah … but it’s not exactly surprisin’, i mean i’ve always known ye had good taste. ”
❝WOW that seems like ages ago, doesn’t it? so much has happened since then. but i’m flattered, really. you look really nice too, i’m feeling this tshirt vibe you’ve got going. i wish i could rock something like that instead.❞ a soft smile toyed on her lips as she crossed her arms, almost like she was shielding herself from the compliments. ❝i’m glad i have your approval, you have great taste too.❞
he made a tsk sound , a mock look of comical flattery crossing his features . “ thank you . ” she might as well have said he was the PRETTIEST IN ALL THE LAND .
“ i gotta surprise for someone , but i don’t wanna get IN TROUBLE . it involves me kinda … sneakin’ out after hours . ya wanna pay me for that ? i’d like the prefect schedules for next week . ”
❝ah and who better to provide those schedules than the head girl herself.❞
(…)
❝stay out of filch’s radar, if you must carry out your plan this thursday, i’m on rounds that day. should be easier to sneak around with me. you got yourself a deal.❞
the smoke may have bothered most people
— those not used to the smell or those unaware of its DOUBLE MEANING — but adie remained amused , a small tilt of his head soon following her words . leaning forward further , he slighted to the right as he placed his lips gently against her cheek .
“ we wouldn’t wanna upset our dear friend , now would we ? ”
“ besides , ” he said with smile , placing his cigarette between his lips once again as he sat back . “ i had somethin’ a little DIFFERENT in mind . ”
❝you’re a tease finnigan.❞
shaking her head gently she sat up straight once more, tapping away the ash at the tip of her cigarette. ❝name your price then.❞
“ i LOOK like i got a mirror ? just gonna have to trust me , yeah ? “ the edges of his lips curled upward , a smug smirk gracing his features as he set his tray down . he always enjoyed art , so it would make sense that he would pull out the BIG STOPS at a party .
“ i hate to be the SAVIN’ GRACE for more than half the people here , but ye may wanna keep ya shirt off ‘til the paint dries . as for payment , ” he paused , his smile widening as he tapped away the ash and leaned closer to the red head . “ depends on how drunk ye are .”
❝sure, you’ve earned as much.❞ she rolled her eyes playfully.
❝why not give everyone something to look at anyways.❞
she laughed, her eyes narrowing slightly as she watched him lean closer, yet she didn’t move away. instead, she took another drag of the deadly smoke and blew it in his face, her playful smirk still dancing on her lips.
❝drunk enough that you can take advantage of the moment without feeling bad tomorrow morning.❞
letting his fingers trail softly against the skin of her back , he traced possible designs , toying with various ideas as he picked up one of his painting trays . taking his paint brush , he began to mix colors , eventually setting the cold pigment against his new blank canvas . the music continued to blare around them as he went on with STROKE after STROKE .
her back soon turned into a beautiful neon display , a colorful sunset blending perfectly from top to bottom . random passersby commented on the cool nature of the painting , telling adie that they’d want the same thing when he was finished with L I L Y . he shook his head . it was a one of a kindDESIGN for a one of a kind GAL , he’d tell him .
“ aaaaaaaaand there we GO . ”
soft shivers rolled down her spine as he painted away, her eyes fluttering shut each time his calloused fingers grazed her supple skin. it had been a W H I L E since anyone touched her so delicately and the redhead would be lying if she said she didn’t miss it.
once he was done, the girl turned to face him a soft smile perched upon her lips. ❝so, do you have mirror?❞
❝how does one go about paying you then? a work of art like this deserves some sort of retribution, don’t you think?❞
he watched her with a casual , albeit amused expression etched across his soft features . less than a few hours in and there was already more nudity than most parties . it was entertaining , to say the least . “ alright , the SISTINE CHAPEL it is , ” he joked , tapping playfully on the tree trunk next to him . “ or maybe i’ll induct ye into the LOCAL MC . s’a skull with angel wings and a C L O W N N O S E . ”
“ no , no …. i’ll make ye look nice . ”
❝as thrilling as those sound,❞ she laughed softly, lowering herself onto the tree trunk he pointed at.
❝how about something that will actually make me look like a million bucks. take your time, i’ve got nowhere to be. ❞
without giving a verbal answer , he rested his own cigarette between his lips before pulling the pack from his back pocket . lifting the carton toward lily , he arched his brow . check out the HEAD GIRL .
“ normally this’d be the moment where i’d write my NUMBER on your CHEST . artistic freedom and what not . ” he chuckled to himself , taking a drag before letting a cloud of smoke cascade from his lips . “ but given the lack of phones , i’ll have to come up with somethin’ else . ”
❝thanks, you’re a doll.❞ she winked swiftly, lighting the cigarette and letting out a soft moan of relief was the smoke filled her lungs.
her brow rose as he spoke, a soft smirk touching her lips as he mentioned his number. normally she’d laugh and steer the conversation far away from that subject but after the week she’d had, she reveled in the attention. ❝come on then show me how creative you can really be.❞ she said, carefully removing her shirt while still juggling the cigarette between her plump lips.
he wasn’t sure whether it was habitual or not , but nicotine always helped him CONCENTRATE . so as he sat there , beer on the ground next to the stump he sat on , he held a lit cigarette between his fingertips . set up around him were various bottles of neon type pigment , each opened as he continued to paint designs on whatever students wanted one . the dance floor was essentially a blur of colors thanks to the asshole with the SMOKING PROBLEM .
“ alright , who’s next ? c’mon — chop , chop . ( p a u s e ) what do ye want ? ”
❝for starters, mind if i bum you a cig? left mine up in my room.❞
lily toyed with her fingers, the need for a cigarette clouding the rest of her thoughts. who knew she’d become so reliant. with a soft smile she held up her lighter, visibly ashamed of the way she’d stupidly forgotten her supply. ❝aside from that go crazy. consider my body at your disposal, i’m excited to see what you come up with.❞
