Get Up (open)

[faleciana]

Cute Outfit


Her movements were swift fluid and precise as she moved her hips to the beat. The club was pumping tonight and Fale had thought it might be a good idea to move her way away from the school and slip her way into the club at which she legally shouldn't have been in, but was. It wasn't to hard to get into this club for many of the people whom came here she knew well. She wasn't sure at first what had gotten her attention here that afternoon when they had gotten a day in Hogsmeade, but now as her body moved effortlessly with the music this evening she knew what it was. Life was pushy when she had a professional dancer for an older sister. Her sister's friend Karder had liked to accomidate her school to keep an eye on her and make himself known as a guy whom was "trying" to get an internship at the school till his "career" took off which Fale wasn't sure was ever going to, but still he had more going for him then she did.

Well that was partially a lie seeing as she had her dancing, slight acting and beautiful voice even if she was the only one in her family who thought she had it. No one else ever heard her sing besides when she was at home. Whilst at school Fale made it out that she was just a hard working student trying to make her way to the top of her class and graduate with good marks so she could go somewhere in life. Her family expected a hard working student and a girl with some kind of talent which Fale thought she had, but for some reason it seemed her family did not.

Finally losing touch with the music as these troubles ran through her mind Fale finally made her made her way through the crowd of people and to the bar. Ordering just a fizzy drink to cool herself Fale sighed heavily and pushed her hands through her hair trying to move her mind away from her seemingly failing life. When her drink finally made it to her she downed almost all of it within two drinks. Her grip tightened on the bottle, but slowly loosened as she lost the urge to break it. Shaking her head the feelings of anger slowly receding Fale got up from her seat and started to make her way towards the mass of dancers once more only this time she didn't quite make it as she accidently knocked into someone.

Given the way things had been going the past week in her life, Erinn was relieved to know that she had work to look forward to. Sure, it was a bit demanding at times being on call for the whims of her boss, but she honestly loved having the distraction of it all. She was at the club dancing most weekends and some week nights and then there were the odd days that she went in to help out with whatever else they happened to need her for. It was a break from all the drama of her life and a chance to do exactly what she loved. The whole environment was upbeat and it was pretty hard to not love being there and taking part in all of the activity swirling about the club. Not to mention, the fact that she was generally loaded down with tips by the end of the night didn't hurt either.

While she was usually on duty dancing or sometimes helping out behind the bar, tonight was something different. It was a little earlier in the afternoon than she was used to showing up, but for whatever reason Nate had asked her to come in for some sort of emergency. She couldn't imagine what emergency there could possibly be in the middle of the day, but she didn't question it. It was about time to get out of the castle anyways. There was too much going on and she needed a break more than she was willing to admit. Pushing through the doors of the club, she was quickly ushered in and towards the back of the club to the dressing rooms for the performers. She very rarely spent time back there unless she was cleaning up, but that wasn't to be the case that day. They needed an extra performer for the afternoon and it seemed that Erinn was it.

To be honest, Erinn was a bit hesitant to go along with it. On one hand, she loved music and singing and all of that. However, she'd also never done it in front of other people and that was a bit intimidating. Apparently she didn't have much of a choice to dispute that fact though, since before she could protest they were shoving her into a new outfit and pushing her out onto the stage. Sometimes, in times like this, there definitely were some things that she could complain about with her job, but she didn't have time to dwell on that fact. Right now she had to put on a show for the afternoon crowd before the club lights turned on and the dance floor was packed to the brim with people. That was when she would have to change into her other outfit and start up on her dancing in the club for the night. A busy night, no doubt, but Erinn was more than willing to put up with it if it kept her out of the castle.

Adjusting the microphone in front of her and sitting her guitar up on her lap, Erinn glanced nervously out into the crowd before she started to play. It didn't take more than a few moments before the crowd disappeared in her mind and all that mattered was the music. It was most definitely a place that Erinn could get used to being and when she finished with her song, Erinn had a light grin on her face. It was probably the best she had felt in quite some time, which she was certainly pleased by. Hopping off stage with a last nod at the crowd, Erinn turned back towards the dressing rooms to change into her next outfit. By the time she was off the stage, the club was already being transformed from the smooth, silky jazz feel and into the popping night club that most people came for. She was a bit disappointed about that, but she couldn't complain, since that would mean the drinks were about to start flowing and she would be able to nick a few over the course of the night.

Throwing off her first outfit, Erinn slipped into her usual outfit for her job and headed back out into the crowd. Even though she had only been out for a few moments, the club was already packed by the time she had gotten back out into the main club. Melding into the crowds, Erinn started to work her way through the club, flirting at some of the people she ran into and generally attracting them to stay and head over towards the bar. It was an easy job, but definitely an exhausting job. All the effort and the dancing wore her out eventually and she started to make her way over to the bar. She never had any issues getting whatever it was she wanted, since she worked there and could generally get away with whatever she wanted. Even if she was young, they didn't seem to care all that much, which she was quite pleased by.

Making her way over there, she slipped around a few of the people, nodding to those that commended her for her performance early in the day and winking at those that were drunkenly flirting at her. It was in one of those moments that she accidentally ran into someone, having not been paying any attention at all to where she was going. Immediately, she hopped forward to help steady the girl, but then stepped back when she saw who it was. "Oh, hey Fale. Didn't know you were around," she greeted, not feeling quite so obligated to reply now that she saw it was a friendly face and not just some random stranger. On one hand, she was glad about that, but on the other, not so much. There were so many rumours, mostly true ones, flying around the Gryffindor tower about her as of late that running into them was something she'd been trying to avoid. Perhaps Faleciana wouldn't be quite so harsh as some of the others though.

Awkwardly brushing her hair back from her face, Erinn looked around a bit for any possible escape route. She was friends with Faleciana under most circumstances, but she wasn't sure at the moment where she stood with anyone. After the debacle at the ball and all the rumours flying about that she was seriously involved with a Slytherin and quite the enemy of Gryffindors at that, it hadn't exactly been the easiest of times for Erinn to be around the Gryffindor tower. Not to mention, she'd been angrily chuckling Quaffles, beaters bats and other such things at Felix's head the past week or so. Which, unfortunately for Erinn, many of the Gryffindors took personally. Usually it was just the younger ones that were a part of his fan club, but there were the other hardcore Quidditch fans that didn't take well to her beating up on their captain for "no reason at all." "Err, I was just headed to the bar. You want anything else? Alcohol's on me," she suggested with a hesitant shrug. She figured she might as well attempt to be nice to at least someone before the entire world ended up pissed off at her.

Fale wasn't the nicest person when people knocked into her, but as she turned to snap on the person whom had so rudely knocked into her as she would normally put it even if it had been her own fault Fale noticed it was Erinn who in all ways she was surprised to see. A lot had flitted around the Gryfindor house as of late not only about the "moody cry baby", but also about how supposedly Erinn was hardcore for a slytherin and had for some reason gone skitzo on the captain of the house's quidditch team. Though Fale was quite sure at least some of the situation was true seeing as someone how every flitt or rumor started had at least a partial truth to them Fale wasn't about to let any of it affect her when she had her own issues with family and school to take care of. If any of them were true she'd let them be as so and not worry seeing as even though she didn't exactly like the slytherin house it was Erinn's life not her own and she could live it how she pleased just like Fale chose to live her life as a black sheep materialistic at times bitch.


Smiling carefully as Erinn helped her out Fale nodded carefully, "Hey Erinn I don't want to sound rude so please tell me if I am and I'll appoligize, but do you work here?" She smiled sweetly and truly kindly at Erinn she knew people who worked here including her sister so really someone working here even with some of the outfits they were stuck in didn't bother her infact it impressed her sometimes the courage some of these girl's had to do such things as dangerous as a job such as this could be.

Looking around at the crowd and then back at Erinn she noticed how nervous she seemed to be right now which made it seem either she was really upset about the flitts and rumors floating around about her or that they were not rumor's, but infact truth's. One way or another as soon as the word's of alchohol is on me came out of her mouth Fale didn't really care. Right now with the way life was Fale would take any offer of alcohol she could get.

"I'd like that..." she said still sounding friendly. Erinn was a good friend of Fale's and no matter what anyone said about her unless of course it had something to do with her was going to affect that. Even if people gossipped about her as well having to do with anything Erinn was saying and or doing as long as Erinn was straight with her and didn't lie about they would always be chill. Rumor's were rumor's nothing more and something like that was never going to get in the way of a friendship, "Hey Erinn... are you alright? Seem a little upset about something... want to talk? I'm a great listener as you know and if it has to do with the rumor's going around just ignore or do what i do and put them in their place..." She then gave a bright big smile to let her friend know she was being sincere.

There was, admittedly, a part of Erinn that almost wanted Fale to go off on her about everything. She wasn't the type of person that was content to just sit back and take things and that had certainly been difficult for her to just distance herself from it all as opposed to being out there and actively denying all the rumours and attempting to quell them. Erinn certainly wasn't fond of the idea of simply letting it go and she wanted to just start fighting it, but she couldn't. There was enough going on in everyone's life that they didn't need Erinn going about cursing everyone. It was, in a way, somewhat mature of her to be acting like this. Of course, it was unlikely anyone else would see if like that, but she didn't really care. She was getting to the point where she didn't care what other people seemed to think about her and their opinions bothered her less and less every day. Well, for the most part at least. She still had some work to do, but she was getting there and she was quite proud of her efforts.

A grin surfaced on her face at Fale's question and she was rather surprised that she hadn't already told the girl all about her job. She hadn't been working there for long, but she certainly talked about it enough. Even if some people seemed to think it was a bit on the slutty side, she loved it and had no problem blabbering on about how awesome it was to anyone that was willing to listen. "Dude, no. It's all good. I totally work here and it's the best damn job ever," she said with an excited nod. It didn't bother her at all that she walked around the club half-naked and generally flirted at anything with a pulse. It was totally a respectable job in Erinn's book, even if that was a questionable assumption where most people were concerned. There was no denying that Erinn's "moral compass" was a little less straight than most, however, so perhaps her opinion wasn't the most accurate.

The fact that Faleciana seemed to be pretty chill calmed Erinn down a good bit and she slipped into her usual personality. She was much more laid back and had an excitable smile on her face, which was hard to lose when she was there at the club. It was just a fun place to be and she loved when people came to visit her at her job. It made it a lot more interesting and gave her a chance to show off what she did. "Fantastic. I'll hop over to the bar and grab whatever," she nodded. Lightly grabbing Fale's hand, she led her over to a seat at the bar before hopping up on top of it herself and plopping over the edge to the back. Needless to say, the bartender wasn't too pleased by it, but most of them had come to realize that Erinn was likely going to keep doing whatever she wanted, no matter how often they might have complained.

Jostling around a few of the bottles, Erinn came up from under the bar with an armful of different drinks, which she proceeded to mix together. She wasn't a star barkeep by any means, but hanging around the place certainly gave her a few decent drinks that she could whip up. Shaking it all together, Erinn poured it into two glasses and slid one across the bar to Faleciana. "Try that shit, it's pretty good. No name yet, but it's pretty damn good. Kind of tropicaly, almost like an island," she shrugged, taking her own glass to down the drink. Erinn with alcohol was never a good mix, to say the least, since she tended to get a bit out of hand when under the influence of alcohol. However, that had never stopped her before and she was more than happy to continue drinking it up. Besides, a little fun never hurt anyone....usually.

Leaning into the bar as Faleciana asked about how she was, Erinn wasn't sure just how much she wanted to talk about it all. She had been happily avoiding the whole subject for quite some time now and that was just the easiest way to deal with it all. However, Fale did seem like she cared to get the real story and not just flail about how it was wrong and how she was stupid and whatever other things seemed to come up from quite a few of her fellow housemates. "I mean, yeah. I'm good, just...trying to keep out of it all, I guess. Figured it's probably best to stay away from it before I like blow up the castle or something, yeah?" Erinn said with a shrug. Certainly, she wouldn't put it past herself to get irritated enough that she do something rash and probably stupid. That was just how things usually went with her.

Finishing off the drink in front of her, Erinn ran her hand along the rim of the glass for a moment before looking back up at Faleciana. "But uh, I guess they're probably all true, you know. The rumours and shit," she mused. To be honest, Erinn had kind of stopped listening to what, exactly, the rumours had been saying, so she had no idea what was going around the castle by now. However, she also knew that generally when it came to her, they were often true. Since, on most occasions, the shit she pulled was crazier than any of the rumours that they could come up with around the castle. "What all have you heard?" Erinn asked with an interested look. It definitely would be interesting to hear just what the castle had to say about her today.
