				Lihua paces the hallways of the dorms looking at doorways. She's not carrying much just a dufflebag in which she carried a change of clothing and her Cemetery Gates Razorback guitar. She had made arrangements with the University to move what meager possesions she had not sold off to her dorm room, since she had no one to help her move on her own. Last night had been the last she spent in her old family home. Seeing no point in keeping it Lihua had sold it to another small family.<br><br>She had spent the last week helping the family move in and get set up and in return they let her spend that week there. Earlier in the day they had said their goodbyes before she left for the boat. They had told her that she was always welcome there, but in her heart Lihua knew that she wouldn't go back. She just couldn't face the memories.... It was even so bad that she totally avoided the dining room where she had found her parents that night.<br><br>Shaking her head she rids herself of the memories and stops in front of a door. This was it...A new place to live and a way to continue on. Reaching down she twists the door knob and walks in to the common room. Looking about she finds the boxes with her name on it sitting in beside the hallway to her room. Looking at the slip of paper again she sees the D which tells her she has the last room.<br><br>Though first things first....She drops the duffel and rummages through the boxes til she finds what she's looking for. Picking up the guitar stand Lihua unfolds it and sits it in the corner before laying the guitar in it. It was the only thing she didn't let the movers take along. Then picking the duffel back up she moves to her room and sits the bag on the bed. Opening it up she proceeds to change stripping off her jeans and shirt. Her shoes were already off sitting by the door where she had placed a mat to keep them on. <br><br>Digging through the bag Lihua pulls out a little red pair of cloth shorts and a black tank top. She then pulls them on over her dark purple matching bra and panties. They were an impulse buy since she loved the color so much. Then pulling out a ponytail holder she pulls her hair back out of the way so she can work. A lock of hair that wouldn't reach the holder falls back framing the right side of her face. Last night she had also dyed that lock purple along with the tips of her hair out of a spur of the moment decision.<br><br>Finally ready she heads back out to her boxes and proceeds to sort through them. Digging out her stereo she sets it up of to the side in the common room so she had music to work with. When she was finished she would move it back to her room. Grabbing the first CD she sees Lihua puts it in the stereo and turns up the volume some. Soon Enemy by Venaculas could be heard as she starts to unpack.

				<div class="floatleft">(http://i1087.photobucket.com/albums/j480/Erion2451/rsbtvo.jpg)</div>Teenagers darted here and there and laughter echoed through the halls even over the loud thumping of bass as Nikki slowly threaded her way through the mass of bodies.&nbsp; A sport’s bag hung over her left shoulder, counterbalancing her purse and backpack over the right, and two green suitcases flipped and tumbled behind her as she dragged them since the wheels seemed to have decided not to work.&nbsp; Vibrant red hair, worn loose on her shoulders, stood out like a beacon amongst the chaos.&nbsp; In her left hand she tightly clutched her dorm assignment as if it was a ticket to a sold out concert.&nbsp; The number on the paper didn’t help much since almost every door along the hall was wide open and a number of female students stood in the threshold obscuring the room’s number.&nbsp; The chaos, the people, the noise, it was all extremely overwhelming and yet beyond exhilarating.&nbsp; Nikki found it hard to believe that only a week ago she was in a psyche ward.<br><br>The redhead still hadn’t forgiven her parents for that.&nbsp; She had been the sanest person at the facility and next to that, this hectic jumble of teenagers was a paradise.&nbsp; Even if she hadn’t forgiven them, her parents had insisted upon seeing her aboard the ferry, as if she’d try to runaway or something.&nbsp; Their trust in her was nonexistent and all she had ever done was confide in them.&nbsp; The irony hadn’t been lost on Nichole.&nbsp; It was a good life lesson though.&nbsp; When you were certain something was out to get you, it was best not to tell anyone about it unless there was proof.<br><br>A smirk formed on her lips.&nbsp; The only thing out to get her here was a pair of broken suitcases and a couple dozen excited coeds who most likely were experiencing their first hours away from home.<br><br>Finally, finding her room and actually getting to it she lugged her baggage in with her and dropped it in an out-of-the-way spot only a few steps into the common room.&nbsp; Opening her mouth and wincing as her shoulders slowly recovered from wanting to fall off, Nikki examined the room.&nbsp; Four doors adjoined the common room and from what she could see of the nearest room it seemed like that would be the bedrooms.&nbsp; The common room itself was large, with a few couches, coffee tables, and a kitchenette equipped with a microwave, cabinets, sink, and a mini-fridge.&nbsp; All in all, she was rather surprised.&nbsp; For a college she’d never heard about the accommodations were kind of classy.<br><br>After a moment of resting, Nikki gathered her luggage and dragged it unceremoniously toward her assigned room.&nbsp; The dorm room itself was more spacious than she had expected.&nbsp; It seemed the school was rather well off, which made her wonder how much her tuition was actually.&nbsp; Seeing that nothing seemed to be claimed, Nikki tossed her stuff on the bed to the left of the door and moved to the window.&nbsp; A grassy area and littered with some large shade trees was all the view offered.&nbsp; It was pretty enough in Nikki’s opinion.<br><br>Not caring to unpack right away, Nikki went back into the common room in search for her flat-mates, <strong>”anyone here?”</strong>&nbsp; She yelled as the noise from the hallway seemed to bleed through the walls.<br>

				Lihua had been in her room finishing putting clothes away and alphabetizing her CD collection on her little storage shelf. Needing a break she moves back into the common room to look over what still needed to be done. When they moved her boxes they had set up her bookcases. There were only three one for movies and the other two for books and what videogames she had. Lihua hadn't bothered with a TV preferring to wait and see if any of her other flatmates decided to bring one. She could always buy one later, but she had kept her 360 just in case.<br><br>She just steps into the common room when an unknown redhead yells to see if anyone was there. Lihua could see why the girl had to yell, she herself had to adjust the stereo just to hear it over the noise coming from the other rooms. Finally she just switched it off, because she couldn't hear it from her room. Unnoticed for the moment she take it to look over one of her roommates and the first thing she notices is the red hair, <strong>"Hi! I love your hair, it's such a beautiful shade of red.</strong><br><br>Lihua pushes the lock of purple out of her face, just to have it fall back so she just leaves it there. Frowning at some of the noise that other girls liked to call music Lihua looks at Nikki, <strong>"I'm half tempted to crank some Otep and annoy some of those other girls.... Oh I'm Lihua Xiao by the way."</strong>

				Makoto finally arrived to the building where she would be living for the next few months. Being in a fight with her parents did not do well for her since now she had no support from them. She was being pushed around by every girl in the building trying their best to get to their rooms. Shaking her head she kept walking until she stopped in front of a door with a number on it. Looking at the piece of paper on her hand she confirmed it was the same number so she got in.<br><br>The room was simple, she liked it that way. Being a spoiled rich woman did wonders for her, she learned how to value simple things in life. Her bags were already next to the door, she took the first bag and placed it on the floor, she needed to get out from her clothes and try to wash away her yet lag. She sighed and searched around her bags, first taking out a red bra and panties and setting them on the bed. The next thing she took out was a skirt and a black shirt. <br><br>Walking to the other door she knocked first before looking inside, confirming that there was nobody inside she entered with her underwear only on her hands and the towel. Slipping off her clothing she stretched and locked the door hoping nobody would bother her. She looked at the mirror and sighed, she needed to find something in here to entertain herself on her free time. She walked up to the shower and turned the handle to warm water, she waited a bit until it got warm and then walked inside. <br><br>The water hit her body like gentle flowers, she loved the feeling of the water hitting her body and massaging it. Moving her hands up to the wall she let the water hit her back, her long blue hair getting wet as she hummed out loud. Finally she took out the soap and began washing herself as fast as she could going through all the basic body parts as fast as she could, this was just a quick shower after all.<br><br>Once the shower was over she walked out of the bathroom and got dressed in the stuff she picked out. First she put on her bra and panties. Grabbing the shirt she put it on and then the black skirt as well. Sitting in front of the mirror she&nbsp; brushed her hair as best as she could. Now ready she picked up her keys and wondered outside her room, the people were still rushing around and trying their best to get to their rooms. She began walking trying her best to not bump into anybody as she made her way to the gym, hopefully there would be something there to break her anxiety.

				Sophia was still quite awed by the building that she was to stay in, but not out of size or luxuriousness, for her family's estate was larger than the dorm building. No, Sophia was awed because she knew that she would be seeing this very same scene over and over for the next few years of her life. Her attire wasn't very formal for her status, just a pair of shorts and a Tee-shirt, her attempt to blend in with the rest of the people around her. Sophia had to exert herself a bit, as the sheer size of her bag was comical, accentuated by her small stature and the extremely expensive looking sun-hat, complete with a pair of authentic Ray-Bans. The students in the hall avoided her for the most part, happy to go about their business and leave her to her own. She had a few jam ups where someone was trying to take a large item past the hallway, and her suitcase was preventing her from maneuvering about them. The door to her common room stood before her, though, and she opened it with a reverence, stepping in to look at a redhead and another girl speaking jovially. These were the first people she noticed to be speaking this way, so Sophia thought it a good idea to join them, a chance to make new friends. Sophia spoke as she walked and stood her suitcase on it's wheel side and placed her violin case on the ground and removed her hat and sunglasses, placing them on the violin case. "Hello, fellow students, my name is Sophia Thorn, Daughter of Charles Thorn, Entrepreneur and CEO of Thorn Incorporated, I am pleased to meet you."The scene was nothing, if not a little funny, when taking into account her mixed price range of items, the regular shirt and shorts combined with the Prada shoes, the clearly marked Stradivari violin case and the Ray-Ban sunglasses.

				Nikki smiled warmly at her flatmate, <strong>"Nikki Drake.&nbsp; It's nice to meet you Lihua.&nbsp; Thanks.&nbsp; I like the purple."</strong>&nbsp; She said before chuckling.&nbsp; <br><br>She wasn't sure what Otep was and didn't want to embarrass herself by asking. <br><br><strong>"Have you been here long?&nbsp; Know who else we're living with?"</strong><br><br>As if on cue, a girl with a large sunhat, Ray-bans, Prada bag, and typical teenage attire entered.&nbsp; <br><br><strong>"Hi,"</strong> Nikki said politely with only a hint of excitement.<br><br>Not all that musical herself, Nikki glanced at the violin, didn't recognize the name, and then looked at Lihua.&nbsp; It seemed like she might just find herself paired with some musically gifted individuals.&nbsp; Her attention, however, ventured back to the face half hidden behind the Ray-Bans while inside.<br><br><strong>"Do you need help with anything?"</strong> Nikki offered.&nbsp; The newcomer had a very large bag, that seemed to dwarf her in compassion, but other than that Nikki didn't see anything to help the girl with, and she wasn't really volunteering to carry that giant bag the rest of the way.<br><br><strong>"I'm Nikki, by the way,"</strong> she said to Sophia before returning looking at Lihua once more.&nbsp; <strong>"Either of you planning on going to the beach later?"</strong>

				Lihua grins, <strong>"Thanks! I just dyed it by impulse something different ya know? Though I just got here about an hour ago, you're the first one I've met...."</strong><br><br>Her attention is shifted as the new girl comes through with an unnaturally large bag. As she introduced herself Lihua's eyebrow lifted a little bit. Did she always introduce herself like that? One would think a person would like to be kept separate from what their father did. Then again it could just be a way to try and impress them, though for Lihua actions have always spoken louder then words. Besides who knows it could be fun having an obviously rich roommate, <strong>"Hi Sophia! Pleased to meet you. I'm Lihua Xiao, you play the violin? It might be interesting to see what we can do putting your instrument with my electric guitar.&nbsp; </strong><br><br>As Nikki mentions the beach she adjusts the ponytail making it so it sits higher up. Then she just shrugs, <strong>"Honestly I haven't thought about it yet. My mind is still on moving in mode. Though I was thinking about walking around later to get my bearings when I was finished. Caffeine will be needed and I was going to see about a TV if no one else had brought one. Though the beach does sound fun, but caffeine first!"</strong>

				Sophia smiled at the graciousness of her two new possible friends. She politely declined when Nikki offered to help her with her things. "Oh, yes, one of my butlers was quite an accomplished musician, he tutored me himself. I would like to play for you some time, but I must be extremely careful with my violin you see, it is worth more than most expensive sport cars. It isn't the Stradivari messiah of course, but it is one of his finer works. The beach would be most pleasant Ms. Nikki, but I must unpack my bags first. You say you want a tv? I didn't think of that really. Would you like one brought in? What size is your preference?" Sophia spoke quite excitedly, happy to have met two kind, middle class girls so early into her stay. She moved into her assigned rooms and unpacked quickly, placing her violin in the large, secure bag and locking it, returning to stand infront of the two women again, sunglasses resting on her sunhat.

				<div class="floatright">(http://katidamo.wikispaces.com/file/view/Angelia+Normal.JPG)</div><strong>Character Name:</strong> Angie Hart<br><strong>Current Location: </strong>Angie's Apartment - Suite 1604<br><strong>Tagging: </strong>None yet. <br><br>Angie gave a contented sigh as she placed the last stack of books on the shelf in her study. As she passed from the study into the hallway then into the living room, Frédéric Chopin poured soothingly from the iPod speaker dock she'd placed on the entryway table. The electrician had been by earlier to hang her faux crystal chandelier in the living room. It was beautifully restored and looked almost real, but the honest truth was that she'd picked it up at a garage sale for eighteen dollars. While he was there she managed to convince him to install her flat screen television on the wall as well. Sheets had been covering the furniture as he worked, and she now felt the plaster dust from the ceiling had settled enough to remove them. First the couch, then the demilune, then the pair of matching blue chairs. Finally she moved to the piece directly under the chandelier. With more of a flourish this time, she tugged gently and the sheet slid smoothly off the black polished surface of her pride and joy. A well kept baby grand piano. It was her most valued possession, and not just due to its cost - to her it was priceless. It meant so much to her to have it here with her, that it didn't really matter that she could hardly play the thing.<br><br>She sat down at the instrument and lifted the cover. With delicate white fingers, she played one note at a time, slowly plinking out a familiar melody. She cleared her throat and sang the words that accompanied it. "Fly me to the moon, and let me play among the stars. Let me see what spring is like on Jupiter and Mars." She could almost smell her father's aftershave as she remembered how he'd dance around the living room holding her in his arms. Her paternal grandfather would sit at this very piano and play for them as they danced. Later she learned to harmonize, and she and her father would sing it as a duet. As she was lost in reverie, her fingers stumbled over the keys. She sighed and closed the cover. If only she'd spent more time learning to play. She made a mental note to try to make friends with someone from the music department. It shouldn't be hard to find a good piano teacher at this university.<br><br>She took a final glance around the living room and collected the sheets that had been protecting her furniture. Without even intending, her footsteps danced along to the tempo of the Chopin étude currently playing as she waltzed the bundle of sheets into the laundry room. She dropped them in a heap in the corner and stepped back into the hallway. She folded her hands and looked around at her new home now that the unpacking was finally finished. It had taken her nearly a week to get everything just right, but now, it was the most lovely place she'd ever lived. She took a few moments to relax and poured herself a glass of Thai Iced Tea.<br><br>She swung open the doors to her private deck and leaned on the railing sipping her tea as she went. The deck was devoid of furniture and she decided to look into having a pair of wicker or bamboo armchairs and a matching coffee table delivered in from the mainland. Surely it wouldn't be as difficult as getting her grandfather's piano here. Now THAT had been an ordeal. As she mused, the salty air wafted in on the breeze and she inhaled deeply. From her 16th floor perch, she could see students as tiny specks scurrying about. Some pushed carts full of possessions, others lugged duffel bags and boxes around. Growing in number was the amount of people who had either finished moving or given up on unpacking in order to make their way to the private stretch of beach. It was becoming a sea of colorful towels and umbrellas. From somewhere down below, she could hear the steady 'wub wub' of bass from many angles. It was a cacophony.<br><br>Despite the beautiful ocean view, Angie still let out a heavy sigh. As much as she longed to join the revelers on the beach, she still had work to do. It was getting late, and she needed to check in at the clinic. There was no telling how many students would hurt themselves lugging around tons of personal effects. Sure enough, the music stopped and was replaced by her cell phone's chirping as if on cue. It was a text from the Clinic's PAT System. (Personnel Alert Text)<br><br>She walked back inside and picked it up to find the words "You are needed at the clinic." in a small bubble on her phone. She turned off the speakers and put the phone into her pocket. In one final swig, she finished her beverage and set the glass upside down in the sink. <br><br>It took her a few more minutes to collect her purse, briefcase, and lab coat before she set off. Despite the fact that the elevators served an exceptionally high volume of students going up, it was pretty easy for her to catch one going down. She was accidentally jostled a few times by frantic students on her way out of the building but she met each bump with an understanding smile and in most cases got an apology. <br><br><strong>&lt;Moving to Sakura Fubuki University Thread.&gt;</strong><br>

				Lihua smiled as Sophia talked about her violin. She had always enjoyed talking about music since it really was the one thing all people could enjoy. It was like a language to her and everyone could understand it, wether it was happy, sad or angry it always had it's own distinct mood, <strong>"It must have been fun learning with a tutor. I had to teach myself and there were time I would get frustrated and want to toss my guitar out the window, but I kept at it. I'm not as fast as I would like to be though... So far I'm at a constant 9 notes a second, but the guitarist I like Buckethead... He tops out at 14 notes a second and Eddie Van Halen can do 12...</strong><br><br>When the TV is mentioned Lihua glances about the room taking in the dimensions and where it could sit. Rubbing her jaw she thinks for a moment, <strong>"A TV would be great then I wouldn't have to con some guy into bringing it up. As for the size I'm not sure... I think a 42 inch might work best, I don't know if a 46 inch might be too much or not.... I do have an Xbox 360 that we can use as a DVD player as well. Though if you all want a Blu-ray player that could be bought as well, but I don't have any blu-rays so I just stick with the 360."</strong>

				Nikki smiled politely at the spoiled rich girl.&nbsp; She didn’t necessarily want to put a label to Sophia, but anyone who flaunted their wealth in the first two to three sentences said to others simply deserved the title.&nbsp; Of course, Sophia couldn’t be that bright if she was telling people whom she had just met how expensive her violin was.&nbsp; Sure the thing was likely locked in the vacuum sealed case, but even If it was more expensive than a car it didn’t have the security system a car had.&nbsp; Not that Nikki would ever steal anything, but it just wasn’t smart to tell people things like that.&nbsp; <br><br>She’d heard a number of stories about college roommates stealing things when she was preparing to go to a school of her choice.&nbsp; Not that Sakura Fubuki (whatever that meant) University wasn’t proving to be plush, it just was a school no one had ever heard about.&nbsp; It kind of made her wonder if future employers would genuinely consider her applications if she graduated from here.&nbsp; Maybe someone somewhere had heard of it, and there was always the chance of transferring after she proved to her parents, and the world, that she wasn’t schizophrenic or paranoid.<br><br>She listened to the two flat mates talk about music.&nbsp; She wanted to hear the electric guitar, especially if Lihua was good.&nbsp; She didn’t care that much about the violin.&nbsp; She’d heard plenty at the orchestras her parents were patrons of.&nbsp; Nikki had been forced to play the flute when she was younger and had been all too happy to be rid of it the first opportunity she had received.&nbsp; &nbsp;She envied Lihua.&nbsp; If she’d been given the chance to play the guitar, she might actually have stuck with it.<br><br>At least she knew who Eddie Van Halen was.&nbsp; No clue about Buckethead.&nbsp; Nikki was beginning to believe that Lihua had a unique taste in music and hoped that she wasn’t one of the girls who’d hate Otep when Lihua finally did decide to play it.<br><br>Nikki shrugged at the size of the television they should get.&nbsp; She didn’t watch much television.&nbsp; There was never anything good on.&nbsp; It’d be nice to have something that played DvDs or Blue-Rays for those occasions when she watched movies.<br><br><strong>”Whatever you guys think,”</strong> she added.<br><br>She really hoped she didn’t have two couch potatoes for flat mates.&nbsp; Lihua hadn’t been very excited about the beach, and Sophia hadn’t even acknowledged the idea.&nbsp; It seemed like the athletic redhead would have to find other people to do outdoorsy stuff with.&nbsp; She had to admit, she was at a loss.&nbsp; Who didn’t like the beach?<br><br>Quietly, Nikki stuffed her hands into her jean-cutoff shorts and leaned against the nearest wall as she listened to Sophia and Lihua talk because she didn’t want to be rude and simply walk back into her room.<br><br><br>

				Sophia, as unused to regular social situations as the next rich kid, didn't pick up on the attitude of Nikki, instead, focusing more on the excitement of finding something in common with one of her flat mates. "I would very much like to learn more about guitar, I haven't had any exposure to the culture, only what i've heard today! But my mother told me to always respect the passions of others. Maybe I could teach you fencing, or upper class dance and etiquette, I very much would like to erase class barriers. By beach, did you mean public beach? I've never been to a beach where everyone is admitted, it might be exciting!" Sophia was absolutely ecstatic, her first day and she would be going to the beach with two middle class friends.

				Lihua smiles lightly, <strong>"Whatever you think I might be good at... I'll give it a try. I believe I'm tired of unpacking for the day... So yeah let's hit the beach! Maybe there is a good volleyball game going on that we can get into...</strong><br><br>Turning she looks at Nikki, <strong>"The beach was a great idea Nikki! Although I don't have a smaller stereo so we're stuck listening to whatever the people on the beach have on. Seriously why do they have such bad tastes anymore? Get some good old rock and metal going... California Girls would be great to listen to on the beach, although I'm not from Cali..."</strong><br><br>Reaching up she undoes her hair which proceeds to cascade around her shoulders. Taking a couple of steps back towards her room, <strong>"I'm going to change quick... Be back in a flash, if I can remember where I put my bathing suit that is..."</strong><br><br>Heading into her room she leaves the door cracked as she digs through her drawers. Finally finding what she is looking for she moves to her bed and strips down. Leaving the bra and panties on the bed Lihua proceeds to put on a two piece bikini. Like some of her clothes the color just happens to be a deeper purple, but the sarong she wraps about her hip is actually black. Looking around for her sandals she then remembers that they were left out in the common room.<br><br>As she emerges she looks about before spotting the towards the corner close to her guitar. Moving she bends over a picks them up off the ground&nbsp; before sliding them on her feet. Finally Lihua grabs her sunglasses then proceeds to slide them in between her breasts and latching them around her top, <strong>"I'm ready when you all are."</strong>

				It didn't take much to make the redhead perk up.&nbsp; A smile lit her face when both of the other girls agreed to head to the beach, and Lihua had even mentioned volleyball.&nbsp; Okay, so first impressions were never that accurate and it took time to get to know anyone really well.&nbsp; She rocked onto her toes as her hands instantly came out of her pockets.<br><br><strong>"Awesome,"</strong> she said with all the excitement she was feeling.&nbsp; Then glanced at Sophia and gave the girl a shrug, <strong>"probably a public beach.&nbsp; Dunno, haven't been there yet.&nbsp; Though considering we're the only ones around on the island, it might belong to the school.&nbsp; I'd still consider that pretty public.&nbsp; Definitely not nude, though I'm sure you'll only get compliments if you're that daring.&nbsp; Volleyball, on the other hand, we might just be able to find.&nbsp; You play in high school?"</strong> she asked Lihua.<br><br>Even as she waited for her flat mate to respond, Nikki's mind moved to the exact two piece she planned on wearing and tried to remember which suitcase it was currently in.&nbsp; It was likely in one of the two old, green suitcases she'd had since she stayed with her grandmother, on her father's side, for a summer in Southampton when she was ten.&nbsp; Her mother had tried to get rid of the pair of old suitcases a dozen times over and Nikki had put a stop to it each time.&nbsp; They held sentimental value, even if they were old and worn.<br><br>Once Lihua answered, Nikki made a suggestion.&nbsp; <strong>"How 'bout we go change and then talk as we walk to the beach.&nbsp; I'm sure we all want to get to know each other better."</strong><br><br>She wasn't all that concerned about music.&nbsp; Her tastes were pretty mainstream and that inevitably meant that she'd like something someone was playing.&nbsp; If they didn't - they were three cute girls - it'd be easy to talk a guy into playing something they liked, as long as it wasn't too off the wall.

				Sophia rushed off and rifled through her dresser for one of her bathing suits, deciding on a one piece. She swings the door closed and disrobes and slips on the bathing suit quickly. She grabbed two hairbands and drew her long hair into two long ponytails.<br><br>She opened the door and retrieved her sunglasses and her sunhat, meeting her two counterparts, quite obviously the smallest. "A nude beach? I've only ever heard of those, and I wouldn't be so indecent as to show up in a public place disrobed!" Sophia was smiling still, excited to be experiencing all these new things.

				Lihua shrugged as Nikki asked if she played in high school, <strong>"I actually played for two years in high school. Well I should say practiced since I spent my games watching the other girls play from the bench. I was good, but they were gifted though I suppose it happens to a lot of people. I actually played basketball all four years as well. I was one of the better people on the basketball team and my parents made sure I played at least one sport. Then of course they forced me into the singing lessons as well. So I do have some training for singing classical and opera."</strong><br><br>She pauses a moment watching Sophia run off to change, <strong>"Though I don't actually think I could really stand to sing opera and I don't look the part because my boobs are to small."</strong> Lihua gestures down at her top which actually push them up a little and makes them look a little bigger then what they really are.<br><br>When Sophia returns all dressed and makes a comment about going to the beach naked Lihua chuckles imagining all three of them nude on the beach, <strong>"I imagine if we showed up at the beach naked we would get a lot of looks. Then of course we would also probably get offered dates by all the guys there and maybe some of the girls to!"</strong><br><br>She licks her lips of the thought and also imagining the both of her flatmates naked. It was the one thing Lihua had never let her parents know about... It was one thing if they heard her talk about boys, but it would have been something totally different if they knew that she had been attracted to some girls as well. Although her only experience with girls was with her former bassist and that didn't go to far, before the other band members got to practice.<br><br>Shaking the thoughts from her head Lihua smiles, <strong>"Yes let's talk on the way. I still need my caffeine fix as well..."</strong>

				Niki disappeared into her own room and began digging through her suitcases to find the blue, athletic, two piece.&nbsp; After a moment or two of searching, the redhead found the suit she wanted to wear and, after closing her door, quickly changed.&nbsp; She pulled her clothes back on over the suit, switched into some boat shoes, and grabbed a towel, as well as, her sunglasses, a hat, and a bottle of sunblock.<br><br>Minutes later she returned to the common room, and she glanced at her flatmates.&nbsp; She felt a little over dressed, but she didn't mind it.&nbsp; There'd be plenty of time to shimmy out of her cutoffs and tee when they got on the beach and she didn't quite feel comfortable walking through the crowded, busy, dorm halls in nothing but a bikini, even if it was a more modest one.<br><br><strong>"You two ready?"</strong>&nbsp; They looked ready to her, but she figured she'd ask to make sure.<br><br>She grabbed her room key and stuffed it into the nylon, black grocery bag with the green recycle symbol ironed onto the front which she'd decided to carry her towel, sunblock, and wallet in.&nbsp; Like she had thought before, they were a group of good looking ladies.&nbsp; She hoped they'd be good friends and the beach would prove to be a good idea.&nbsp; Though she worried about Sophia and her getting along.

				While Nikki was changing Lihua grabbed what she needed and put it in a simple backpack. Mentally checking to make sure there was nothing else she needed she turned just as Nikki got back. She grins at her, <strong>"I'm ready, let's go and have fun while probably breaking some hearts."</strong><br><br>She makes sure all the lights are off before opening the door for the other two. Lihua had been worried before meeting her flatmates, although there seemed to a person down. Absently she was curious about what their last member would be like... Things had gone good so far so she hoped their last flatmate wasn't a pain in the butt or stuck on themselves. It might make for a hard year....<br><br>Pulling her thoughts back she starts looking forward to hitting the beach. Lihua hadn't gone to the beach much back when her parent's were still alive. She had been more interested in her music. Well she still was, but the idea of meeting even more people intrigued her. Hell maybe she could find others and form another band, since her old friends and bandmates seemed so far away....<br><br>&lt;exit towards the coffee shop then the beach&gt;

				Sophia's excitement was almost palpable, but she kept herself in check. Noticing the others had towels and other such things, she rushed off to her room and gathered similar things, returning as&nbsp; quickly as her small, sandaled feet would carry her there. "So we are going to get coffee are we? What sort of standard do the public cafes adhere to? I am afraid that though I went to public schools, I have little experience with public chains. Do you really get so many potential suitors? I have only had one or two! Arrogant prats, really."<br><br>(To coffee shop and beach)

				Nikki shot Lihua a baffled glance after Sophia spoke elite-ese.&nbsp; What the heck was the "spoiled rich girl" going on about now?&nbsp; The redhead had to being to wonder how anyone lived without associating in public, especially if they went to "public" school.&nbsp; What did Sophia do, arrive and depart by private jet?&nbsp; Or perhaps she just rented out every restaurant she'd ever attended and made it private?&nbsp; Perhaps, she simply never ate out.&nbsp; She likely had a butler and private chef, not to mention a taste tester, all assigned to her as if she were the heiress of a country.<br><br>The baffled look switched to an eye roll as Nikki pushed her bag up onto her shoulder and headed out.&nbsp; Beach, sun, and sand, hot guys and refreshing salt water quickly filled her mind as she pushed Sophia's peculiarities aside.&nbsp; The last days of summer were calling and she'd spent far too much time locked indoors of late.&nbsp; At least she hadn't had a padded cell, though she might need one if she spent too much time with Sophia.<br><br><strong>"Coffee?&nbsp; Who needs coffee?"</strong><br><br><span style="font-size: 6pt;" class="bbc_size">To Coffee Shop and Beach</span>
