i believe in fireflies

[farrah]

- - - - - i remember what you wore on the first day ,

you came into my life and i thought ,
HEY YOU KNOW THIS COULD BE SOMETHING CAUSE EVERYTHING YOU DO

On the one day that Farrah was off, she knew she was going to make the best of it. Staring out the window, Farrah's brown eyes noticed how beautiful the day was. Watching Keagen as she played with her toys in the floor, she wanted to do something but she didn't exactly know what. Running her hand through her hair, she smiled and asked the little girl. "Ready to go to Laceys?" she asked. The little girl looked up at her smiling and nodding her head. Getting up from the chair and slipping on her white flip flops, Keagen stood at the door with Jerry, her stuffed tiger in one hand and the other on her bag. Keagen loved going to Lacey's because Lacey herself had a little girl around Keagen's age. Shutting the door behind her as the two walked out of the house, locking the door. Farrah felt like she wanted to be alone that day, just going to the park and relaxing. Walking towards the car and putting the little girl in the car seat, Farrah made her way towards Keagen's babysitters house.

After dropping Keagen off, Farrah made her way towards the park. As she got out of her car and just started walking, she pulled the white jacket closer to her body. Her brown hair hung over her shoulders curly, and her brown eyes just watched people as they passed by. Grabbing her ipod out of the pocket of her jeans, Farrah placed the buds into her ears and started listening to Hang em High by nineball, a band she some how discovered on myspace. Running her hand through her long, wavy hair. The sky was clear and the clouds were white. As she walked down the sidewalk, she soon found a place under a shady tree where she could watch the clouds. Her brown eyes started at the sky as she laid back onto the grass. A cool breeze rolled over her smooth legs as she just stared at the sky.

Farrah tended to have a wild imagination. She dreamed of princess and princes, falling in love and living happily ever after. Her brown eyes just stared at the sky as she started day dreaming, but she found herself where she always left off. She was the princess stuck up in a dungeon waiting for her prince charming to come along. Farrah wasn't afraid of guys, she was more afraid of falling in love and thats where her imaginations came into play. She could always fall in love in her own little world and she wouldn't be scared but in reality, she was. Love was a scary thing. It was like being in a war, you pretty much have to fight for the person you want to be with for the rest of your life. Farrah's small body laid curled up as she continued to search la la land for a miracle. The songs on her ipod started changing.

As one song came on, Fireflies was the name of it, caused Farrah to come out of her daydream. She loved the song, it made her feel like a little kid inside as she heard it. She couldn't help but sing along to the chorus. "Before you met me i was a fairy princess, I caught frogs and called them prince, And made myself a queen, Before you knew me i traveled 'round the world, I slept in castles and fell in love, Because i was taught to dream" she started, not even caring who was listening. Her eyes closed as she continued singing along with the song. "I found mayonnaise bottles and poked holes on top, To capture tinkerbell, They were just fireflies to the untrained eye, But i could always tell, I believe in fairytales and dreamers dreams like bed sheet sails, And i believe in peter pan and miracles, And anything i can to get by, And fireflies" she continued. Another gust of wind swept across her body as her eyes opened and looked around the park. Farrah sat up and rested on her elbows, trying to find any familiar faces, but there were none, as she should've known. She was new to Caramel Rivers and had yet toi met someone who could handle her at her best and worst.

Just another day of doing... absolutely nothing. Yeah, sounded good... monotone. Elijah wasn’t sure how he felt. He enjoyed the listless days, but somehow this one just felt... off. He wanted to do something else. He’d woken early... not much of a surprise, as he often woke in time to see the sunrise. He’d stumbled out of bed like normal, nearly running into the side-table, as he wasn’t fully awake until something was in his stomach, whether it be food or drink, it never mattered. He carried on as usual, sitting at the table, facing the window so he could watch the skies lighten, slowly drinking a small glass of tea. By the time the tea was gone, the sun was in the sky and Eli had to admit, he felt much less fuzzy-headed.

The first few hours of the day seemed to crawl by. After blasting out on the percussion for a while and strumming the guitar until he grew tired of it, Eli set the instrument down and left the room. A hot shower later and he was back in his room with a towel around his waist, searching for something to wear. The young man realized after a few moments that he needed to do the laundry, as he didn’t have much that wasn’t dirty. Well, that sucked. He finally settled for a fitted, plain dark blue t-shirt, a slim black Sports Illustrated jacket, and a pair of relatively clean jeans (the mud-stains on the knees didn’t count). He pulled a brush through his still wet hair and glanced around, unsure of what to do now.

The hell with it. He uttered sharply, striding best he could with his leg towards the door and ignoring the pain that sometimes came with it (due to nothing more than the surgeries he’d gone through, as much as he hated it, they had been necessary). It was a nice day, just like he’d thought. Eli walked slowly down the street, enjoying the outside and glad for the fact that there wasn’t many people out. His dark brown hair slowly dried, falling down in his face like usual. Eli didn’t even try to push it back, he knew it was pretty much useless.

His footsteps took him towards the park, and he found himself walking through, enjoying the scenery and remembering certain pleasant and some not-so-pleasant memories. Eli walked a little less than half-way around the park before his leg got to hurting a bit much, even for him who had a fairly high pain tolerance. He found a bench and sat down heavily, leaning back and stretching his legs out, glad that there still wasn’t a lot of people around. His brown eyes, matching his hair perfectly, stared out at the surroundings, taking in everything, and a small smile curled at the corners of his lips.

Notes: Not too good...
