The air was crisp and cool around the campus today. Colton looked down as he absentmindedly kicked the fallen orange leave around. It felt so odd being here, at school. All his life he rebelled against institutions like this, he always felt restricted, like he could never be himself. Well then again that was in Canada. Maybe its different in America, maybe he could actually enjoy himself here. It was nice that his best friends went here too, now he wouldn't be the awkward one. He smiled a bit to himself as he wrapped his arms around himself, feeling the warmth of his jacket. His ipod was casually blasting 80's dance music. He was such a gay boy, kinda.
No one was around right now for some reason. It was kinda eerie to see how few people were outside. Well it didn't matter either way to Colt. He needed the alone time. Just to think and clear his mind. It's been rough the past few days and everyday he just gets closer and closer to making some mistake. It was sad but true.
He continued forward, not really caring about where he was or where he was going but soon he ended up at the pool. He looked around for a moment, uncertain of how he got there. Colton was certain that he was going towards the classrooms last time he checked, but then again when you just wander around, its not surprising he got here. He shrugged his shoulders a bit, as he threw his bag filled with sketch pads and some pencils to the side of the pool. He also unbuttoned his coat to reveal a simple white v neck. He shivered a bit as the cool autumn wind gust came through. He then tossed off his converse and rolled up his jeans a bit as he sat by the edge of the pool.
Colton slowly eased his feet into the freezing water. The near invisible blonde leg hairs stood on end as the ice water came in contact with his body. The shivers ran through his body, yet it still felt nice. He kicked his feet in the water a bit, leaning back on his hands. The water made violent ripples that disturbed the astray floating leaves. He pulled out his earbuds and sat in silence. He smiled a bit at it, it was so serene. It was nice. If only life stayed this way.
He glanced around once more and started to slip further and further into the pool. The ice cold water traveled up his body, soaking through his jeans and then his white shirt became transparent. The water hit him hard, it was difficult to breathe, but he didn't get up. He liked this. Solitude was nice. He was tempted to call Conner and Claude up but things have been a bit awkward recently and in all honestly Colton didn't know what to say or do. So he swam.
Round and around the pool he went, fully dressed. It was nice though. He eyes slowly closed for a moment and he simply floated in the giant abandoned pool. He could hear people off in the distance but it was virtually silent. The water pushed and pulled him around aimlessly. He had a smirk as he thought about life. Everything was going good so far, even though he was depressed. Strange but true. In all honestly, everything was perfect. But why was he still so unhappy?
Maybe he just needed someone to love him. He didn't want to be the third wheel anymore, or the guy that sleeps around. He wanted stability, and deep down he knew that. Colton knew he had to stay strong or else that vial of heroin stashed away may empty out. He loved the feeling of it coursing through his veins. He may have quit but not a day has gone by without him think "What if". But right now in this moment, he was in a good place. Colt opened his eyes and stared at the clouds rolling above almost barren trees. It was beautiful in every way.

But I'm not ever gonna know if I'm right or wrong 'cause we're all going in the same direction.[/font][/size][/color] Cold winds were blowing pretty much everything around and misplacing them. Moving them to other locations. Yellow, brown and red colors were the most dominate, and the trees had dropped most of their many leaves, so they were spread all over the place. Everything had a cold expression to it, but the orange glow over all, made up for it.. a little at least.
She walked down one of the paths outside the school buildings, with her hands in the pockets of her black jeans. She had already put on gloves, so her hands wouldn't freeze while beeing outside. To it, she wore a gray sweater and a beenie. She figured, that a jacket probably would be a little too hot though, so that way laying on her bed at home. Her backpack weighed something like a ton, after a long day at school, where a lot of books had been necessary. Now she had to drag them home too. She sighed lowly, when she sat down on one of the white plastic chairs by the pool. and let her bag slip down to the ground. She rubbed her sore shoulder a bit, thinking that she was alone.
A boy was swimming around in the cold water, wearing all of his clothes. She gasped in shock, before jumping to her feet and hurrying to the edge, to get a look at him, and help him. In her mind she already had the fear of him drowning. "Hey hey! Are you alright.. Do you need help" she was fast to say and stumbled over some of the words in her hurry. Then she recognized, who the boy was. Colton. One of Claudes friends. one she had met to that party. She half-smiled, but still with a worry in her eyes. What was he doing in the water? "Are you okay??You're gonna get sick! And I really don't want that to happen" she said, still worried, but honest. She hated when others hurt, no matter who it was, or how small the issue was. And if it was mental of physical.
She reached out a hand to him.

Just as Colton was closing his eyes, hoping to rift off into a cozy nap while floating aimlessly in the chilly pool, he heard a voice. "Hey hey! Are you alright.. Do you need help?" Colton was slightly startled at the sound of another after quite a long time of silence. He pulled himself forward, no longer floating but instead treading water. It a moment for the chlorine to stop fogging his vision but the first thing he saw was bright read hair as she spoke again, "Are you okay??You're gonna get sick! And I really don't want that to happen". "Angela? Hey what are you doing here? Yeah yeah I'm fine. Just wanted to take a swim is all," he was lying. He watched her extend her hand towards him. He grabbed it and pulled himself up, bracing the concrete pool deck so he wouldn't pull Angela in. The moment he left the water, the cool wind went through him, sending shivers down his spine. He would have much preferred to have stayed in the water. Why did she come? It's not like he was drowning, just taking a swim. Kinda. Colton just wanted some alone time, not that he did now that Angela arrived. But she was sweet and meant alot to his friend so he couldn't really push her away.
His wet clothes stuck to his skin, all of it was basically transparent which was kinda embarrassing as EVERYTHING could be seen. His hair was plastered to his forehead, little droplets fell on the ground. Colton tried to speak through his chattering teeth but that proved to be quite difficult and unfortunately he had no other clothes besides his coat which he did NOT want to get wet. It was dry-clean only after all. " Do you have a jacket or anything? I'm f-freezing" He stuttered a bit as the cold came over him. His wet hands tried to warm up his arms to no avail. Wow he was stupid for taking a swim in a icy cold pool.. with all his clothes on.

But I'm not ever gonna know if I'm right or wrong 'cause we're all going in the same direction.[/font][/size][/color] Angela chewed on her lower lip by the sight of him. She helped him up from the cold water and into a cold wind. Damnit.. Why should the summer end? She glanced around and smiled back to him after a quick look after other people. Angela? Hey what are you doing here? Yeah yeah I'm fine. Just wanted to take a swim is all. she raised a brow, looking very skeptical by his excuse. Who did take a swim in an icy pool, wearing all their clothes? Not one with the head in order. "Hey Colton. Just finished school and needed some time to relax" she replied politely and tilted her head to the side. "It's really not the best weather to go for a swim in all your clothes. Seriously, you'll get sick". Her voice was gentle and caring, but yet she managed to keep her voice a bit teasing.
Polite as she were, she kept her eyes off places, where she wasn't supposed to look. His clothes had went transparent and once, she had looked through his T-shirt, but discretely. Now, she kept her gaze locked with his. Do you have a jacket or anything? I'm f-freezing. She bit her lower lip again and thought of it. She didn't have her jacket, but she did have her sweater though. It was oversized and probably would fit him alright. At least, it was too big for her tiny body, but it was hot and soft and she loved it. She took it off, and reached it towards him. "You can take this one.. Do you live at the dorms?" she smiled shortly, shy in her own cute little way. She ran a hand through her long red hair, ignoring the shivers from the cold wind. She had worn a long sleeved shirt underneath the sweater, so she could manage to keep herself in an alright state. Opposites him. "We should get you into some dry clothes. I'll make you some soup or something"
- oh yes, Angela in her best state. She cared for basically anyone and didn't care about herself at all. As long as the people around her was happy, she didn't mind her own life being as well as shit. Now, her mission would be to make Colton feel alright again. She barely knew the guy, but it was a matter for her heart. He was close friend to her boyfriend, which meant to her, that she should be extra attentive around him. Not that it was a burden to her. It was nice taking care of others.
