Notes: First chapter with the girls! Yeah! Just to let everyone know, I did not get descriptions for every character, so if it's wrong at all, let me know and I'll fix it. Luckily, I have past casting calls, so I just checked those.
And I'm sorry to say that not every girl got the guy they wanted. I tried my best. There are three guys left however…Snoddy, Pie Eater and Jake. The following girls were not paired and may choose either one of these guys or one of the guy OCs who will appear next chapter: Pocket, Libby, Kinlee, Dreamer, Penni, Leprechaun, Catherine, Hollywood and Viper.
However, thank you to those who choose a less known newsie as one of their choices. That made it a bit easier. However, one OC guy is not available, because it's one that my boyfriend sent in. I will let you know who it is next chapter. Also next chapter, I will tell you which boy goes with which nickname.
The All-Girls School…auditorium
"I don't know if this is punishment or a reward," Katelan Erickson, more commonly known as Gamble, mumbled to a girl sitting nearby, her voice full of sarcasm, "Dances are okay, but finding a date…it's almost not worth it."
Gamble shifted her brown-hazel eyes to the front of the auditorium as Mrs. Kreiger continued talking about the upcoming dance. A bit bored by the speech, she played with the tips of her shoulder length blonde hair, which were red and black.
"It's definitely a reward," Tyler Anders, or Rebel, whispered back to her, "The only boys I've seen in months are my brothers and they don't count." She narrowed her dark brown eyes as she looked around the room in hopes of finding something to occupy the time until they could leave. She had dark brown hair with light brown and blonde highlights. She sighed when nothing caught her attention and turned back to the front. Mrs. Kreiger completed her talk about the event a few minutes later.
"Do we have to wear dresses," Amanda Berkley, or Spaz asked when the time for questions came. A jingling sounded as the girl raised her hand, due to the many bracelets she wore. She had brown hair that was longer in the front and shorter in the back. Two long strips of hair framed the front of her face. Her green eyes peered out from blue tinted glasses, waiting for the answer.
"No, you don't," Mrs. Kreiger replied, "It would be nice if you would, but it's not required. In fact, next Friday, we'll be leaving to do some shopping, for those of you who didn't pack an outfit with you. Now, are there any more questions?"
"What about the decorating and music committees," Veralidaine Quincy, or the easier way to say her name, 'Daine' asked, barely heard above the crowd.
"Good question," Mrs. Kreiger told her, "Those interested in helping will meet in Room 117, Ms. Halloway's room, after this meeting is over. She is the art teacher and she will be there so you can discuss your ideas with her. Now…is there anything else?"
The questions went on until finally everybody was satisfied with the answers they received.
"Okay, since nobody else has any questions, I'll let you get back to your activities. Remember, those interesting in decorating and music committee…Room 117." These words relieved everybody as the girls filed out of the room, grateful to be getting away. Whispered and excited voices sounded, echoing throughout the area. The main doors out of the building allowed sunlight in and a few girls blinked as they stepped outside. It was much dimmer in the auditorium.
"Girls, wait up," Brittany Colosimo, or Britts called, running to catch up with her roommates. Gamble and Rebel paused, waiting for her. The last roommate, Alison Manning, also known as Bookworm ran up a moment later, her long brown hair reacting to her movements. Her blue eyes showed her excitement about the dance. She stood at 5 foot 4, just two inches shorter than Britts and Rebel. Gamble, however stood two inches shorter at 5 foot 2.
Britts looked annoyed at the hair in front of her brown eyes. She smoothed down her reddish-brown hair, which was short in the back, gradually sloping to the length of her chin in the front, "Isn't it weird that they waited until now to have a dance?"
"Maybe a little," Bookworm admitted, "I've been here since freshman year and this is the first time they've planned a dance. I wonder why they changed their minds."
Room 117…Ms. Halloway's Room
Ms. Halloway looked out at the group of 6 girls who sat in front of her with a bit of disappointment. She had expected a bigger group than this. It looked like more people were willing to go to the dance than help out.
Only two of the girls looked really excited to help out. Ms. Halloway recognized Catherine Powers, more commonly known as Artist, because of the wonderful art pieces she created in class.
Curly red hair fell to about her shoulders, making her freckles more visible. She wore a white blouse decorated with paint stains and pants with words and phrases written on them with fabric markers.
Daine was the other girl. Her short, curly, light brown hair was done in shaggy layers. Her dark hazel eyes were focused on the front, waiting for the first instructions. Baggy pants, a fitted black graphic tee, and black and white checkered Vans completed the rest of her look. The other four girls, Kylie 'Leprechaun' O'Sullivan, Molly 'Penni' O'Conner, Victoria 'Broadway' Greeves and Kay 'Aqua' Wood didn't look as excited about the project. But…they were there and that's all that mattered.
"Okay, welcome to the first meeting of the committee," Ms. Halloway started, "We have a lot of work ahead of us. Decorations are our main concern, because we have to put them up the day of the dance. music, we can hold off on for a while."
"So," Penni spoke up, her green-brown eyes looking up, "Is this a casual dance or more like a Prom or something?" She wore her curly red hair to the center of her back and brushed it quickly out of her face.
"It's almost like a Prom," Ms. Halloway answered, "It's not as fancy, but it's supposed to be nice…allow the boys and girls to meet, dance, know each other."
"Aren't we meeting them tomorrow," Leprechaun asked. She had bluish-green eyes and curly red hair.
Ms. Halloway nodded, "You are…but not all the girls or guys will have a chance to meet everybody. There are so many of you."
"Why don't we have some kind of performance," Broadway asked, "to welcome the guys to our school." Green eyes looked up at the teacher. Her wavy, chestnut brown hair reached to her shoulders.
"That would be kinda cool," Aqua agreed. She had light blue eyes and reddish-brown hair that just went passed her shoulders.
"I know a lot of people who would help," Broadway continued. A few of the other girls nodded as well, knowing roommates that they could ask.
"Okay, that sounds good," Ms. Halloway stated, "Let's start planning."
Notes: I simply picked out 5 girls to be on the Decoration and music committee. Two mentioned it in the CCs they sent me and I just went through the others and choose which ones might possibly be interested. If you don't want your character to be involved in the committee, just tell me in your review or e-mail me. I will think of a reason for them to quit. On the other hand, if you're interested in helping, please tell me. I put myself in there simply because I never helped out at my Prom, though I wanted to. I need ideas for songs and decorations. Send ideas to me.
