((This is an RP between myself and Ronnie. The characters in this first post are mine, and Ronnie will bring her character(s) in when she feels like it. ^^ Pictures of my characters are linked at the bottom.)) For once, the weather was nice in Pleasanton. The recent rainclouds seemed to have dissipated entirely, and the sun took the opportunity to go into overdrive on the cozy mid-sized town. It was the perfect day for people to go out and get errands done, or simply go for strolls. One might even say it was the perfect day for a date between close friends. Jennifer took a deep breath of the fresh air as she and Ben walked a park path. There weren't very many people around, but still the air was alive with the sounds of wind and birds. She was glad to be able to hang out with Ben like this. They'd been best friends since elementary school, but they didn't get to be around each other often. At least, that was the case until recently. Jennifer smiled wanly to herself as she was reminded of her recent breakup ... she cared about him still, but he was clingy and sometimes it seemed like he tried to keep her away from her friends. Even close friends like Ben. Ben glanced to Jennifer when she sighed. He had liked her very much for quite a while ... but she didn't know. He couldn't say anything either because he knew she considered him a friend. He shrugged to himself and turned his bespectacled green eyes back to the path, running a hand through his short, light-brown hair. "I think it's just up ahead ... the pond." he said to fill their silence. Jennifer nodded, her dirty-blond pigtails swishing with the motion. "Yeah, I think so ... I haven't been out here in forever, though!" she answered with a chuckle. They were right, for soon the path made a turn and before them the serene pond came into view, surrounded by patchy grass and a few trees. Jennifer smiled, remembering the times the two of them had come here to play since the second grade. There used to be a tire swing, but that particular tree was quite dead and crumbly now. “Awesome, it’s so nostalgic, Ben!” she quipped as she rushed forward to sit in the grass before the narrow shore. She turned to watch him with a grin as he joined her, leaning his arms against the worn-denim jeans on his knees. “Yeah, it sure is,” he answered. “Do you remember when I accidentally knocked you into the water that one year?” he asked with a sly grin and a laugh. “Yes! Oh my gosh, I was so mad then.” Jennifer replied, catching the laughter. Soon the two of them were reminiscing about the good old days, laughing all the while. Jennifer wished they could have moments like this a lot more often from then on. Ben kind of wished he could hold her hand. ~~~~~ JenBen |

((took me forever...But I has finished...FINALLY XDD))
Ross black brows furrowed as he turn towards his friend, Edgar or “Eddie” (Eddie was preferred), in exasperation. “I can’t believe she dumped me…and for such stupid reasons….I’m not clingy…and I’m DEFINITELY NOT controlling!!.” He paused before looking worriedly at Eddie, “I-I’m not, am I?”
“Er…,” started Eddie as he coughed into his hand and averted his eyes slightly, “O-Of course not…Why would you think a thing like that!? Preposterous!”
“Yeah…That’s why I was thinking,” murmured Ross whom was downright oblivious to the sarcasm along with Eddie’s responsive flat look.
Ross gave a sigh as he ran a hand through his thick black and red hair. “I just don’t understand! Why would anyone leave ME! And I just can’t seem to win her back either… No matter how hard I try…Flowers? Nope. Candy? Double Nope…Silly girls and their diets… And Poetry? Don’t even think about it! Nothing seems to appease her….”
Eddie decided to keep silent this time…However, before Ross couldn’t question about this, a familiar laughter rang out through the air.
“Jenny…,” murmured Ross under his breath…But it was loud enough for Eddie to hear.
“Sounds like she’s having fun, dude…” said Eddie quietly.
“….With another guy…,” Ross added bitterly his eyes narrowing as he stormed over towards the laughter…Not bothering to avoid a carefully place garden…It didn’t take long for him to spot Jenny …and the other guy. He snorted as he felt his hot temper rise to molten lava temperatures…
Just as he was about to go and tell her off, he felt a hand on his shoulder…and it wasn’t Eddie…It was the park police.
“Son, do you realize what you just vandalized…”
“Wha…?”
The officer simply pointed towards the trampled garden.
“Son, I’m only going to ask you once…Please leave…”
“But..But...,” he paused to huff and puff, but in the end said …,”Yes, Officer…” He ended with a sigh…
He would get revenge though….He promised himself that…
((I will post Ross's and Eddie's pics up in a min X3))

((Yes, thank you Natalie. ^^
Also, y'all have Satal to thank for getting me motivated enough to finish this post.))
As their conversation about the old days continued, Ben glanced away but once. He could have sworn he saw someone familiar being led away by the park police a short distance away. But he couldn’t be absolutely sure. He shook away the feeling and turned back to Jennifer, who was looking over the pond now.
“Hey, Ben, let’s to check out the tire swing tree ... I think we all signed our names in it once, right?” she suggested, her gaze landing on the gnarled, dead old tree.
“Oh yeah,” Ben answered with a chuckle. “That Bobby kid was there, too, right?”
“Yep, and my old friend Rachel,” Jen added. She stood and brushed some stray blades of grass from her pants. Ben followed suit, though he didn’t bother brushing away the dirt. He smirked when Jennifer rolled her eyes at that.
“Boys,” she said simply, though she was grinning. The two walked together to the tree. After searching its surface for a few moments, they found an area with mostly-healed but still defined carved lines. They found their names as well as the names of their two other friends.
Ben chuckled sheepishly. “I forgot everyone used to call me Benny,” he commented.
“I’m going to start again, I think,” Jen answered slyly.
“No, you won’t,” Ben answered assuredly with another smirk.
“You’re right. I’ll forget by tomorrow.” She shrugged. “Well, hey, let’s go walking again for a bit, maybe? I have to go home soon ...”
“Sure thing,” Ben answered easily.
Twenty minutes later, the two were back at the place they’d met up that afternoon. Ben’s bike was still chained next to the bench where he’d left it. Before he could go to unlock the chain, Jennifer threw herself into a big hug. Ben was grateful she couldn’t see that action turn his face a few shades pinker.
“Oh my gosh, we have to hang out again soon, Ben.” She insisted as she stepped back to let him get his bike. Ben made sure he was faced away from her until he was sure his blushing stopped as he stood the bike up on its wheels and kickstand. “I miss you lately ... we never hang out.” Jennifer continued.
“I like that plan,” Ben answered with a grin. “I’ll try to call you, maybe.”
Jennifer nodded. “Cool. Well ... see you later.” She waved and gave him a smile before turning towards the parking lot. She thought a moment, then headed in the direction she thought she’d parked, though of course, as always, she couldn’t remember exactly.
Jennifer sighed as she absently dug her keys out of her purse, glancing at the sky as she walked. Now that she was alone, it was easier for her to think about her more unfortunate recent happenings. She rubbed her eyes and shook her head ... it was no use thinking about Ross now. They were over.

Ross ditched Eddie a whiles back (though it could have been the other way around), as he searched for a small and clean silver Sedan. Or at least he was semi-certain it was a silver sedan. Memory didn’t really run in his family. Something far more secretive and obscure did though. You see… Ross was a size-changer. This recessive gene was extremely rare… even more so than Primordial Dwarfism. With a single whim, Ross would go from being a 5’8 ½” lightweight to a 68’6” tall behemoth. However, changing in public was strictly prohibited by his size-changing coven…and ALL covens all over the world. Coven is simply a term for the size-changer group within a certain area…Covens were made so ALL size-changers had an eye kept on them…No mistakes could be made. This secret just COULDN’T be revealed to general public… Until now.
~~15-30 minutes having passed~~
“EERRGHHH!,” growled Ross irritably as he flung his arms wildly into the air as he searched through the third parking lot. “Why Must Pleasanton National Park have to be so friggin HUGE!” He was so angry he was nearly panting…However, before he went ape shit on a younger boy who was staring at the scene Ross was making, a silver car flashed in the sun, catching his eye.
“EUREKA!” cried Ross nearly smiling before he remembered the “seriousness” of the situation and a scowl quickly replaced it. He stormed over the car. He saw a figure before the car – back towards him. He could recognize those dirty blonde pigtails anywhere. “Jenny,” he all but purred…the coldness, yet also longing was evident in his voice.
He bounded to over to the figure and whipped her around – a menacing look plaster on his face. However, “she” was not jenny, but was another girl entirely.
She screamed. However, before Ross could apologize or anything (though what he really wanted to do was scold her for stealing HIS Jenny’s look….), a large hand collapsed itself on his shoulder.
Ross gulped and slowly turned his head, only to be met with a fist to the face. Apparently, this girl had a scary biker boyfriend. Just peachy.
~~Another 15-30 minutes later~~
Groaning, Ross rubbed his slightly fattened lip and his rather bruised cheek…Though, he was the most thankful he didn’t absolutely lose it there…He couldn’t risk it…at least not yet… About, to give up, he perked his head when he saw another gleam of silver. He looked up to see Jenny! This time the figure whom he thought was Jenny was facing him…so he was certain he was right this time. She seemed to be digging through her purse looking for her keys. Only Jenny could make such an action adorable. Shaking the look of pure desire away from his face, Ross ran towards Jenny.
“Jenny!,” he cried as he was just upon her. Pausing a couple of feet away..His tired look turned to one of hurt…and ANGER. “JENNY! WHAT THE HELL!? I saw you with that other guy….How can you forget about me so fast…!?” He growled/whined with an accusing look.

((Jeez ... I must be really easily amused today, because everything makes me laugh. Including the first half of your post. At least Ross seems to bounce back, eh?))
Jennifer didn’t notice him running towards her right away, but he caught her attention quickly enough. His was a face she was used to seeing, after all. And that nickname, of course; he was the only one who used it, and really the only one she didn’t get grumpy at for using it. She blinked in surprise to see him there, and almost gave him a light smile before remembering that the breakup hadn’t been that long ago. And the fact that he looked right mad.
Jenny frowned at what he said. “Other guy? Who, Ben? He’s a friend, I’ve known him since like the second grade, Ross,” she answered, slightly irritated but doing well in not showing it. “It’s not like I’m going out with him.” That look on his face, so familiar, was getting to her. “You’re not in control of me anymore, Ross,” she added, shaking her head. She started to walk past him to get to the driver door of her car. Her intention wasn’t to just leave him cold, but rather to get away from the conversation before it took a bad turn and had them yelling at each other.
((Bah, short post is short.))

Ross snorted at the “It’s not like I’m going out with him”.
“That’s bullshit and you know it!,” he began with a growl. “I heard the way you laughed and giggled with him. You were never that way with me!” He ended – the accusing tone from earlier never leaving his voice.
However, her “You’re not in control of me, Ross” stopped his ranting dead in its tracks.
“Wh-what do you mean!? Not this shit again! I know I’m not in control of you, dammit...”
‘Doesn’t mean I can’t have some influence…’ he added to himself in thought.
He quickly cut her off from her car…Placing his hand on the hood..whilst still glaring heavily at Jenny.
His look softened slightly, “Just where did I go wrong…”?” He asked in almost a whimper.
But, just as quickly his look as softened, it just as quickly went back to anger.
“Is it because you always had feeling for this “Boy Toy” of yours!” He roared as he lifted his fist and banged it down on her car…However, what he didn’t realize was some of his “powers” had “leaked out” giving him some of the strength his..er…larger form had. This cause the car to violently bounce a bit as the metal under his fist groan and bent under his hand. Needless to say, there was quite an indent in Jenny’s “baby”.
Ross just stared at what he did in shock…Not believing he could be so stupid… His mouth opening and closing with no words coming out – kind of like a fish.
Finally finding his voice, he sqeaked, “I gotta go!” And with that he ran off into the distance…Cursing himself out not too silently – gaining stares from the many park-goers.
((Meh! Sorry for taking so long..I lost all inspiration last night Dx....but I gained some of it back, partially, this morn' :> ))

Jennifer narrowed her eyes at the accusations, her face becoming slightly pink with indignation. Never laughed like that with him? Who was he kidding? She scoffed when he tried to defend himself over being controlling. 'Like hell you're not,' she thought to herself.
She raised her eyebrows and stopped in her tracks when he tried to stop her from going. It was her turn to glare as she turned to him crossing her arms, though her glare was significantly less intense than his. She took a deep breath and almost answered his whispered question, allowing her expression to soften ever so slightly. But instead, when he continued in a yell, she drew back slightly.
When he smacked the car, Jennifer flinched back again and squeaked in surprise. "Oh my gosh, are you ... o-kay?" She automatically started to ask, thinking that he must have broken his hand or at least hurt it badly. Instead, she also stared in shock at the damage he did to the car. When he ran off, she glanced after him, then back at the car. She huffed and looked to the sky dismally. "Dad is gonna kill me." she muttered to herself. But she had other things to worry about. Ross was not okay, and she at least had to make sure things would be alright.
Throwing her keys back in her bag, Jennifer took off after Ross, as quickly as her not-made-for-running boots would allow. "Ross! What the HELL just happened?! You don't just take off after something like that!" She called after him, hoping he would hear and completely ignoring the onlookers. She slowed to a stop, knowing she wouldn't be able to catch up. "What went wrong? What went wrong?! You don't f***ing TRUST ME, that's what went wrong!" she screamed angrily, letting her frustration come to the open. She fell to her knees, exhausted, and stayed there to take several deep breaths. This was definitely not how she'd envisioned her day ending. Thankfully, passerby knew better than to get in the way of her "alone time."
((Meh ... I don't mind the wait. I take a while too, sometimes. ^^
As for this one ... can you really blame her for trying to go after the guy who just smashed her car? Heh ... >.<; But Jen is not much of a runner, the silly goose.))

“Fuck! FUCK! FUUUUCCCKKK!!!!!” Roared Ross as he visibily yanked at his hair was he was running and running…and running. He couldn’t continue this conversation he couldn’t…He’s LOSE himself…He just knew it!
However, an equally exasperated shout/scream by Jenny caused him slow momentarily.
“What went wrong? What went wrong?! You don’t fucking TRUST ME, that’s what went wrong!”
This brought him to a complete stop.
He didn’t trust her? HE didn’t trust her!? What kind of fucking explanation is that!?
“GODAMMIT, JENNY!” He snarled as he felt his bones pop and vision to start to blur. The process had begun.
However, just as quickly it had started, it had stopped as soon as a hand was pressed firmly on his shoulder.
Nearly foaming at the mouth so to speak (yet still calming down some), Ross whipped around to see a familiar red-head – Eddie.
“Don’t do it, dude…,” warned Eddie threateningly.
“But-but-but…,” started Ross before taking a few deep (and relaxing) breaths…and then sighing. “Fine…Whatever,” snorted Ross, “Let’s just go, ok?”
However, Ross’ words and thoughts were two different things entirely. In his mind he questioned to himself. ‘Tonght? Yeah…The night is always better…’
((Ok...So I decided against having him giant-ize himself right away....he needs proper equipment first ...like *coughs* proper clothes U,U...Can't have him running around in the nude, yeah? xDD))
