Thread: [Brian_dark_angelo] Seducing Love [Dysy]

Things had changed since high school. They had to go their separate ways there was no other choice. At least, thats what she convinced herself. They had finished high school, and had plans to go to the same college together, but by the time they had decided to attend the college, she had backed out of her own accord and left the state. Instead of attending college, she had joined the force she had been a rough girl growing up so she had found a profession to put that brute force to work to make some proper money with it. She was a bit of a tomboy growing up, and that seemingly cute characteristic as a child, had stuck around even till her 20s. She was never one to be caught dead in a dress, and she wore but the minimal amount of make-up just a bit of chapstick and some mascara. Becoming part of the S.W.A.T. team seemed like the perfect job for her, and she was willing to put the work in, so she chased the dream. But even states away, and throughout it all, the entirety of training and actually getting to work there was something that stayed constantly on her mind. She had grown up with a girl they were near inseparable, but for different reasons. Carina had grown up with a girl that was her polar opposite, and while it was shown that opposites attracted, no one really understood how they had stayed friends for as long as they had - and how they had parted so easily, as if all of those years together almost meant nothing. But they meant everything to Carina. During training, she had forced herself to think about nothing but work, forcing her body and her mind to its limits in her training, and then applying everything she could in her work. Somehow in her mind, she thought, that if she focused on one thing, and only that one thing, her work, she could forget about everything else perhaps she could even forget Natasha. And for a while, it worked, all Carina could think about was work, and become a member of the S.W.A.T. team, it was something she had wanted for herself. But, the more she tried not to think about her childhood friend, the more it tried to force cracks into her thoughts to sit, and settle in the forefront of her thoughts. But while it lay dormant, it had festered and grown like a childs nightmare in a closet, until it was something she could no longer hide from herself. And then there was that phone call. They hadnt spoken for three years, and now Carina found herself in the back of a taxi cab, holding a backpack navy blue flannel covered chest, her fingertips pushing dark brown, almost black strands of hair from her brown eyes that darted back and forth from the doors of the car. Perhaps, this was a bad idea? She had left Natasha for a reason, but that very reason was what was dragging Carina back home to her, and back to stay with her for an impromptu vacation of some sorts. Visitin someone special? The taxi cab driver spoke up to her as they neared their destination, but the question only settled heavily in the pit of the womans stomach. You could say that. She muttered softly turning her eyes back to the outside world. When they had arrived, Carina dragged out her suitcase with a low huff and flung it to the curb with a soft thump as she paid her fare and slowly made her way up to Natashas room at least, what she thought was Natashas room. Really, the last time she had seen the girl, they werent living on their own, and this was a new sensation for Carina all she had was her wits and a small crumpled, torn sheet of paper with the apartment address and number. Wiping her hands on her torn jeans, Carina gave a small huff. It wasnt like her to feel nervous, in fact, the girl almost always exuded confidence and almost arrogance 247, but she could feel her hands perspire as she raised a fist to the door and gave three hard knocks. Natasha? She called out. While her voice seemed perfectly normal, her hand only gripped the handle of her suitcase tighter.
