anabelle took a deep breath a she stepped from the bar, stumbling slightly on the step that she would swear hadn't been there when she walked in. now glad she didn't wear heels and feeling a bit tipsy anabelle strode confidently out into the bustling reality that was new york. walking in silence across the street she looked up at all the unbearably bright lights, knowing they weren't as bad before she'd had a few drinks. of course, then it had been light out which to her didn't make much sense. there were still a few hours of solid daylight before the sunlight would start to fade, turning the city under darkness, though they put up all the lights then. shrugging her shoulders gently to herself anabelle looked down and realized she'd stopped walking. guess it was for the better cause she would have walked straight into the fountain and made a fool of herself.

walking along one of the cobbled paths towards the park closest to the city anabelle broke free from the crowd and froze on the spot when she found herself hoping to see peyton there. shaking her head firmly she pushed her bangs from her vision and continued to walk, remembering a few days ago when they'd met at the bakery. a light smile now upon her lips anabelle quickly frowned. she wasn't actually falling for him, was she? taking a moment to assure herself that the honest answer was no she bit her lower lip lightly as she bought a bottle of water. taking the three short steps to the bench anabelle took a long swig of the water, trying to get the taste of stale liquor off her mouth. her friends always said she was more fun slightly drunk. nor caring now anabelle thought to herself about peyton in the silence, though everything around her was anything but.

surely even if she did like him, he couldn't possibly like her the same way back. could he? popping a mint in her mouth she chewed it thoughtfully, still dead to the world as she plugged her ears with her earphones, letting her iPod blare the music and hopefully some sense into her. Looking up to the blank dark sky she tried to see a star but failed, glancing around her at the people walking by. not to fret, anabelle, probably just the alcohol.

to some, smoking was disgusting. but to peyton, it screamed 'classy' and 'fashionable'. maybe it was because his parents had smoked and he had watched old movies growing up where it was 'cool' to smoke. he'd been smoking since he was a young teenager and had never tried to quit. he liked to imagine he was one of those people in the old movies. but he didn't like people to know about his habit, seeing as nowadays, society frowned upon it. everyone was about going green and being healthy. not that peyton didn't agree or anything. but he still chose to fill his lungs with smoke.

normally, when he was smoking he'd leave his apartment. god forbid you can smell it in there when he has parties. then everyones on the lookout for the culprit. walking down the streets of new york, stepping in and out of the street lights, peyton inhaled the smoke deeply. a few seconds later, he let it all out, walking through the smoke. what had started out as just a walk for a cigarette turned into a little shopping trip. somewhere between the stairs of the building and the sidewalk outside, peyton got a serious craving for rice krispies.

in no time he had left the quietness of the side streets and entered the main part of new york. people started to appear all over the place; locals stumbling out of the bars and tourists watching in awe, as if anyone from new york was famous. he weaved his way in an our of the people, finding one of the 24 hour convince stores. it took no more than five minutes for him to be walking out of the store, biting into the first sweet treat.

instead of taking the quick way home, peyton opted for the longer route, the one that went by the park. just as he was tearing into the second square, his eyes landed on someone that looked vaguely familiar. as he got closer, he figured out who it was; carter, the girl from the bakery. he made his way over to her, stopping in front of the bench. "what are you doing out so late?" he asked her with a smirk. they hadn't discussed their ages, but peyton had a feeling she was a bit younger than him.

[/b] she asked, raising her brows as she realized she was standing now, toying with the hem of her dress as she got distracted.

boy did she have a short attention span sometimes. propping her hands on her hips as she stood there facing peyton silently now. thinking over her response to his question she felt like slapping herself, she'd basically turned his sentence around using slightly different words. her thought train was suddenly shattered when she saw a few clearly drunk guys making their way towards them with no obvious intent of stopping. grabbing peytons shoulders delicately she moved his out of the way a few feet before turning and watching them almost bulldoze another person over as they made their way down the path. turning back to peyton after a moment anabelle noticed her hands still upon his shoulders and felt herself flush, glad her cheek blusher would hide most of it.[/size][/ul]

he could tell by the way she was looking up at him, and the way she stood that she was a bit tipsy, if not drunk. but he wasn't about to get all 'you're-too-young-for-this' on her. after all, he had done things he shouldn't do as well. peyton could also smell the faint sent of alcohol on her, probably from being in a room filled with it. and if the smell and her actions had not already proved she wasn't sober, her answer to his question certainly gave it away. peytons eyebrows shot up as he thought about what she had said. it was pretty much the same thing he had asked, but with different words. wasn't it? shaing his head, peyton licked his lips. he had to get her somewhere safe. well, safer than the busy streets of new york.

he was about to take the few short steps towards carter but before he had the chance to move, her hands were on his shoulders, pushing him to the side. this time furrowing his eyebrows he began to question her but the gust of wind beside him explained everything. he watched as the group of men went down the sidewalk, colliding with almost everything in their path. a small laugh escaped peytons mouth as he turned his attention back to carter. "thanks," he told her, shrugging her hands off his shoulders and gently spinning her around.

he slid his arm around her shoulder, pulling her with him as he started to walk. "so what were you doing before, anyways. that got you like.. this," he asked, glancing at her. carter was shorter than him, but at a height that was comfortable to have his arm slung across her shoulders. he wasn't meaning it in a loving way.. more of a protective way. but to the onlookers, it probably looked like they were together, a boyfriend helping his girlfriend in her time of need.

[/i] she thought to herself, releasing a small sigh of relief when she remembered her apartment wasn't too far off from where they were. she'd only walked about 5 blocks or so to the bar, and then she'd crossed times square and here she was now.

nodding slightly when peyton had thanked her carter took a small sip of her water bottle before twisting the cap back on. hearing her phone start vibrating in her small purse she bit her lip and read the text, quickly responding she read over her answer to make sure it made sense before pressing send and slipping it back in her purse. looking ahead of her she listened to peyton as they walked, noticing his arm around her shoulders she bit her lip, forcing back a yawn as she walked along beside him silently, thinking carefully over what he'd said. 'so what were you doing before, anyways. that got you like.. this,'

she recalled, taking a little bit longer to do things now as she tried not to make a fool of herself. 'umm, i was...with a friend.' she spoke quietly, choosing not to go into full detail of what she was doing and who with. crossing her arms she tensed up a little as she slowly pressed each of her nails into her sides, trying to rid her mind of some thoughts as she remained tense, keeping her distance from peyton a few inches so their bodies weren't touching apart from his arm still slung comfortably around her shoulders as she glanced over her shoulder for a second before looking forward again, her eyes on the path below her as she trusted peyton not to run her into anything or let her run into anything.[/size][/ul]

leading carter along the streets of the city, it occurred to peyton that he didn't know where he was going. no, that was a lie, he did know; he was bringing her to his apartment. but wouldn't it make more sense to bring her to her own place. shrugging it off, peyton figured if she started to go the wrong way, carter would say something.

he looked around the city, the bright signs and lights catching his eye. even at night it was as if the sun was still out, everything was so bright. but as you got farther from the heart of the city, it started to get darker. thank god there were street lights. they walked in silence with peyton wondering if carter didn't want to be around him. after all he had basically kidnapped her from where ever she was. what if she had been the drunken friend and the sober ones were now looking for her? but she would have said something by now, right?

he looked over at her when he heard her soft voice answer him. "oh. just one friend? wont she be looking for you?" he pulled carter in a bit tighter, trying to get through a tight group of people trying to stumble down the streets. but they weren't having much luck. the girls were tripping over their heels and the guys bashing into one another.

[/i]comfortable with peyton right now, but for some reason she wished she were other places with other people though she wasn't sure why. sweeping her fingers lightly across her face she pushed her bangs from her eyes and looked up to peyton, studying his face in the dim light before sighing softly and looking ahead of them.

seeing the group of people up ahead she grimaced and clung to peyton tightly until they were through the group. one of her pet peeves; being touched by too many people at one time. feeling like she'd forgotten something carter realized peyton had said something. 'uhh, no.' her tone wasn't like a, 'the answer is obvious, you're an idiot' type tone, just kind of distracted with a hint of disappointment. she glanced over her shoulder to see the light of new york getting more and more distant with each step she took. now being able to see the stars speckle the sky carter smiled lightly, this was her favorite part of the park and the city limits. once you were outside it was simply gorgeous. just like new york except, minus the hustle and bustle, obnoxious music blaring from clubs and bars, unreasonably bright lights, drug dealers and homeless people lurking about the dark alleyways. okay, so maybe homeless people didn't lurk but you get the point.

'so, um, where are we going?' she asked gently, knowing they'd passed the turn to her apartment when they went through the mob of people and she sure as hell didn't want to go back there. looking up to peyton expectantly with a cute smile on her face as her brows raised ever so slightly as she watched him, wondering about his age for the first time since she'd met him. he still had some slightly boyish features though he also had a lot of, not so boyish features. she guessed about 19 or 20. she was almost 18, not that far off.[/size][/ul]

smiling, peyton nodded. "just as long as no ones going to accuse me of kidnapping you," he said, glancing over to carter. okay, so he was flirting a little. what was wrong with that? people flirted everyday. hell, people in relationships even flirted with other people. it had become a normal, everyday thing. but he couldn't help it. it was just the way he was wired. if he was attracted to someone, he automatically flirted with them, almost without his control.

he got the sense that they were going no where near carters house from the tone of her voice as she asked where they were going. chuckling, he began to explain. "well, at first i didn't know. and then i figured out i had no idea where you lived. and now i was sort of heading to my own apartment?" his voice rose at the end of the statement, turning it more into a question. he looked back at carter, trying to read the expression on her face. was she angry? would she rather go back to her own place? did she think he was come kind of pervert?

[/b][/color] a little flirt back, no big deal, she honestly had no hopes of anything happening. she liked peyton; as a friend or more she wasn't yet sure of.

hearing him chuckle before he explained carter stayed silent, thinking over his words she looked down when he looked to her. 'sure, whatever is cool.' she spoke sweetly, smilling gently as she looked up to him before looking ahead of them. she wasn't picky about most things anymore, as long as she didn't have to hang around with someone who annoyed the crap out of her for a long period of time she didn't really care what they did or where they went or for how long. biiting her lower lip tenderly carter glanced at her phone, seeing the time she responded to a text quickly before moving a little closer to peyton to avoid running into a couple walking down the path the opposite direction.[/size][/ul]
