It was well before breakfast, the sun hadn't broke through the pre-dawn yet. Jen had been awake for only a little bit as she hurried from her morning bath. She was careful though, she had learned the lesson about wet feet on tile once or twice with a smack of her butt to the floor. That was not so hot on one that liked to wear the smallest shorts possible.
She was mindful of everyone sleeping as the music her room played big band as the lowest level. Not even the super ears of Rae would hear it. A slide and shimmy later she was dressed in her black mini shorts and hunting halter. Sure these where for night, but she didn't plan on coming back in the house at all today. She had plans.
She stopped and posed in front of the mirror, the secret ways girls did, turning every which way looking for every flaw or blemish. The black looked good against her heavy sun kissed skin and set off the flame red of her hair. Scathach would be proud. As the young and vibrant girl in the mirror looked back at Jenai, she wondered who that was. It was too hard to put into words... it didn't look like the sweet field flower Jen, but a sweet fire rose instead.
She pulled up her hair high into a massive pony tail of red, and the bedside lamp light sparkled on the golden disks hanging from her earlobes. No one ever really saw her earrings... but then, she never had a real reason to wear them. This was her first date, ever, she wanted to look special. Thats what everyone does right? Rationalizing?
At the end of "sleep walk" was the perfect cue, she picked up a bundle under her arms and snapped off the radio. Quietly she opened her door and looked both ways down the hall before she slipped out. She wasn't doing anything wrong! So why was she feeling like she was sneaking out of the house? She just didn't like waking the others up. Rationalizing again?
