the latest complications

[taint]

*It was midways through the school day, classes wasn't due before the last fifteen minutes of the lunch hour, most people was just kicking back and relaxing, Chandra was one of those. She had settled outside, in the area behind of the school, A cigarette pecked neatly between her lips, who had been moistened a few minutes ago by lipstick, in the colour purple, not a screamish dark or light purple, something neutral. She shifted slightly, legs stretched out as she leaned up of the wall of the building, The bench had lost it's back support during a fight earlier the day, most likely another rivalry betwen the two schools. Brawls were everywhere these days, brutal or friendly, with or without honour. It didn't matter to her, all in all it just boiled down to the fact that it was only a matter of time before something big would happen, a student would die or something equally grotesque. His friends would be wanting revenge and the result was obvious to her. Anarchy, Chaos and most likely a death toll far too high for her standards. She did her best to duck out of trouble, it wouldn't help the situation anything if she tried, there wasn't any neutral ground in this thing, either you were in or you were out. Quite typical really.*

*She shifted her position slightly, bending forwards, resting her weight more upon her feet than on the bench, head tilted backwards, a hand plucked the cig from her lips, allowing her to breathe out a small cloud of smoke, slowly watching it ascend to the skies. It was a nice day in her opinion, not to cold, but not hot either. It was something along the middle of it, at least if you had dressed warmly, she was wearing a black simple dress, covering most of her body except for the arms and one leg, it was open in one side in order to allow her full range of movement, pantyhose and knee socks with tiny skulls on them didn't exactly destroy the image of grace, but didn't support it either. Dark leather boots with a small platform made her just a couple of inches higher. Finally she was wearing long gloves that covered most of her arms, She had gathered her cornrows in a pony tail and finally covered her face with that light blanket of makeup that she perferred having, all in all. She wasn't exactly cold.
Cigarette was placed between her lips again, eyes feel to the ground as she gave room for further thought. She simply decided to vanish into her own realm of thoughts*

As I walked out the school doors I sighed deeply. It was an okay day out, somewhat cold, but not exactly too cold. My nice black suit jacket helped to keep me warm. As i continued walking I looked around at the damage all around. It seemed there was more damage done to this school from all the sensless fights then anything else.

Paying no further attention to the damages I reached into my breast pocket. Pulling out a pack of marlboro king size cigarettes, I rested one between my lips. As I continued to walk I searched through my pockets for my lighter.

Continuing to walk I started to get a little annoyed. How could I lose my lighter, Fuck chances are no one would be out here either.

As i walked forward I looked up to see a rather attractive girl sitting on a bench smoking a cigarette. Without any hesitation I walked up to her and cleared my throat slightly toa nnounce my coming. I did not want to be rude and startle her or anything, since she seemed to be almost deep in thought. I was fairly sure that the loud clicking sound of my dress shoes tapping on the ground while I walked would alert her of my coming, but I just wanted to be sure.

"Excuse me miss, but do you have a lighter I could use for a second?"

I asked her as i took my hands out of my dress pant pockets.

*The systematic noises of a pair of rather loud shoes startled Chandra out of her 'trance' she opened her eyes slowly, a young man or old teenager cleared his throat in the classical 'please notice me' fashion. She would give a small smile and slowly focus upon the man approaching her, fine clothing compared to this school couldn't help but make her raise a brow slowly, he requested a lighter from her. Chandra would give a small nod before leaning to one side, unzipping the smallest pocket of her backpack, she searched around for a little bit before picking out an almost empty cheap and very ugly green lighter, she flicked it a couple of times to check if the tiny amount of gas left was enough, it wasn't. She threw it into the trashcan positioned nearby and mumbled something irritated before standing up, she took a good grab on her own cigarette, pulling it out and leaning her head back to blow out a blanket of smoke. She would not insert the cigarette again, just let it rest between two fingers*

"Sorry, i ain't got a fire for ya darling, but i got another idea. Take a puff like you wanted to light it, we'll just have to cooperate won't we?"

*She smiled softly, a finger beated on her cig, removing the layer of ash to get to the lighted part underneath, then she would proceed to step closer to the man, two fingers kept on the cigarette as she would motion for him to place his cig together with hers, in that way she could light his cig with her own. A trick she had done so many times before, it saved a lot of money if you couldn't afford the gas, one foot slided slightly forwards, making the dress part over it, revealing the leg underneath, the smile would stay on her lips, ignoring the sudden gust of cold that hit her leg*
