Taking a Break [OPEN]

[Selena-Rose Matthews]

Selena walked down from her dorm, her guitar in hand, making her way towards the courtyard. Slowly, she took a seat on a bench, setting the guitar against her lap and placing the strap around her slender body. Looking down she started to strum a melody that was familiar to her, been perfected many times over the years. Glancing up, she smirked to see that the few people in the courtyard were now looking at her, seeing what she was going to do next. Confidently, she started to sing, "I stop to catch my breath , and I stop to catch your eye. No need to second-guess, that you've been on my mind. Well I, I dream days away, but that's OK."

Lex decided to spend the day outside and it was a beautiful day to do so. When Alexa was little, her brothers and herself used to be outside all the time. They weren't really ever inside unless it rained. Before leaving, Lex grabbed her notebook and a pencil and threw it into her bag. She raped the bag around her shoulder and headed out. Alexa went to the courtyard where she saw a girl playing and singing. The girl had a nice voice and was good on the guitar. Alexa smiled and approached her," You are really good." she chirped at the girl. She has seen her before and was in some of her classes," Selena right?" she asked the girl.

[Selena-Rose Matthews]

Selena glanced up and slowly brought her song to a close, smiling up the new girl. "Um thanks. It's Selena but just call me Lena." She replied taking off her guitar and gently setting it down. She extended her hand towards Alexa. "Lexa right?" She replied with a smile, hoping she got her name right.

[Alexa Hewitt]

Alexa nodded," Okay then, Lena." she took a seat next to Lena and hoped she didn't mind her sitting. Alexa took Lena's hand and nodded her head once," Yep. You can call me Lex, lexi, or Al even." she gave Selena a smile," Whatever works. Did you write that song." Alexa tilted her head at the question and looked over at Lena's guitar. Nice. Then her eyes looked back up to Lena and then Lex moved a curly blond piece of hair away from her eyes.

[Selena-Rose Matthews]

"Nice to meet you Lex." She laughed and shook the blond's hand. "Um, yeah its been a work in progress for about three years now." She explained with a laugh. Selena was a natural born perfectionist. "I don't know, it's not... not right, I guess." She explained with a small laugh.

[Alexa Hewitt]

"Nice to meet you too." Lex said with a grin on her face. Alexa loved to meet new people and make new friends. It was so Lex. Alexa laughed and nodded," You can't rush perfection. Takes time. I am trying to write a new song too. Now how you feel." Alexa was working on her new song for awhile. She didn't like to show any one her unfinished work. Her brothers, especially her twin Bright, who she shared everything with, wanted to know. She wouldn't say.

[Selena-Rose Matthews]

Selena nodded slowly, her blond bangs falling in front of her eyes. "I know, my brother tells me that all the time. I'm impatient." She laughed her nose wrinkling softly. "You write? That's awesome. I don't write all that often, sing all the time but usually something from a musical."

[/blockquote]

[Alexa Hewitt]

Alexa laughed," My brothers are the ones who are impatient. There just nosey." Alexa said with a shrug," Sometimes a write but usually it's just singing others songs. I love doing musicals too. I've alwasy wanted to do the play Wicked." she said with a large smile," Wha's your fave?" the tall blond asked.

[Selena-Rose Matthews]

"My brother is the patient one. It still amazes me that we're related. We're polar opposites." She laughed. Selena smiled even wider, "Ohmigod, I love Wicked. I would kill to play Elphaba. Defying Gravity is like my favorite song in the whole world." She laughed, glad she found something in common.

[/blockquote]

[Alexa Hewitt]

Alexa nodded," Well me and my brothers are actually a lot alike. especially me and Bright." she told Selena and then added," Were twins," Alexa smiled grew wider as Lena said she loved Wicked," I love all the songs. Though i'd probably be Glinda cause most people say I am a lot like her." Lex gave a small shrug. Though she did like both Glinda and Elphaba's parts.

[Selena-Rose Matthews]

"Twins, that's cool." She said. Tucking her hair behind her ear. "My brother and I are really close. He's really quiet though, I tend to talk way too much." She joked. It was true she tended to talk a whole lot more than she should. "Glinda's song are the cutest. Love Popular, it makes me giggle every time I hear it, its so much fun to sing."

[/blockquote]

[Alexa Hewitt]

Alexa laughed," That's good that you too are close. Is he older or are you?" she asked. Hoping she didn't sound to nosey. Alexa nodded," Popular is one of my top favorites. I love the way Glinda sings it." she said flipping her crazy curls off her shoulders," I want to do the play Wicked, just couldn't find a place that was doing it." Lex let out a soft sigh.

[Selena-Rose Matthews]

"Yeah but two years, he's in NYU right now." She explained with a smile. She missed her brother, and couldn't wait to see him during the holiday break. "Me too! I heard Wicked was one of the plays the school is considering for this years Musical." She sighed happily. She would give anything to be in it. "I'm hoping they choose it."

[/blockquote]

[Alexa Hewitt]

Alexa nodded," You must really miss him. If it were my brother, I don't know what i'd do." Alexa eyes opened wide and shireked with joy," Really? That's amazing! They better do it or i'll go crazy! Alexa laughed," I would die to be in that play" Alexa sighed.

[Selena-Rose Matthews]

Selena nodded slowly before a surprised smile came on her face when she heard Alexa shriek for Joy. "Yeah that's what I heard." She laughed wrinkling her nose slightly. "I really hope they choose it too. It's a great musical." She added with a nod.
