[/size] Rafferty lay in her bed staring at the ceiling. She was one of the lucky people who got a two-person dorm, and even luckier to get her best friend as a roommate. She sighed lightly to herself, she couldn't sleep. Ugh. She was sort of tired, but she just could not fall asleep. So she went to desperate measures.
"hey.. kait.. you awake?"she whispered rather loudly, enough to be heard if she was awake, but not loud enough to totally wake her up. This was definitely one of the pluses of sharing a dorm with your best friend. You can have midnight conversations, provided that they are awake too, but still much better than trying to talk to someone you don't like, or waking a grumpy roommate. She ran her fingers lightly through her dark blonde strands as she sat up. Laying down and staring at the ceiling definitely wasn't going to help.

Kaitlyn rolled over in her silk dark blue sheets. When she heard Raff say her name she rolled over to face her best friend's bed. She rubbed her eyes and then sat up in her bed. "I'm awake now. What's up?" Kait reached over to grab a poland spring water bottle from her night table. She opened the bottle and took a drink, helping to wake her up. Kait ran her hands through her dark brown curls that she would have to straighten in the morning and then piled her curls into a bun and waited for Raff to tell her what was really wrong.

[/size] Raff really wasn't sure what was wrong. To be quite honest she just couldn't sleep. She really had no good reason not to sleep. Her mind was pretty clear, nothing really that should be keeping her up. She shrugged lightly. "Sorry.."she muttered as her friend rolled over and sat up. She really didn't mean to wake her up.
"I can't sleep is the problem."she said with a sigh. "I dunno why either."she now figured she sounded pretty lame. She was just hoping she wouldn't give a "you woke me up for this?" or something like that. "and sorry again for waking you up.. I'm just sort of sick of laying and staring at the ceiling."she said. Well would you want to lay in the dark and stare at the ceiling? Raff looked around a moment grabbing her own water bottle off the night table, taking a sip before placing it back on the table.

Kaitlyn laughed. "Hey I know you'd wake up at 3 in the morning for me any day, it's what having a best friend is for. And maybe you're just stressed, I mean Junior year is known for being hell at regular schools, we have to get through this school work and still manage to be amazingly talented. We go to one of the top boarding schools in the country and we have to do twice as much work as everyone else our age and work twice as hard." Kaitlyn was a master at multi tasking and thought that junior year would be so easy, but it was anything but. Her music teacher was giving her a hard time on hitting a high G which was the highest note possible. Kaitlyn wasn't focused on doing opera, just recording an album and having it go platinum by the time she turned 19.

[/size] Rafferty chuckled lightly as she went into explaining. It somewhat reminded her of a therapist or something, although everything she was saying was true, though raff wasn't really that stressed. Maybe she was and didn't know it. "Yeah.. you're probably right.."she said in agreement. Somehow the topic lead her to think about her day.
"Oh I ran into your sister today...litterally.."She said. "I think that's the first time i've ever really had a conversation with her.. " It was pretty much the first time she had talked to Christine. I mean she had said hello and maybe a little small talk but never an actual conversation.

Kaityn sighed. Her sister always got the attention at home, but things were different here. "Personally, I think that I was adopted, I don't look anything like her. She looks exactly like my mom but with brown hair. Let me guess, you think she's beautiful, talented, and your in love with her already, like my parents." Raff had never met her mom or dad, but knew of them.

[/size] Rafferty shook her head. Christine seemed to have a bit of an attitude. "Nah.. You're way prettier kait..."she said with a slight smile. She knew the feeling. Her sister Rae was always the pretty one in the family. At least Raff was the oldest by like two minutes. Then of course there was Jude who was the smart, not to mention dad's favorite for being the only boy. "I swear parents always favor the wrong children."she said chuckling lightly. "My mum just loves Rae.. and Dad loves Jude cause hes the only boy." She said making a face.
They were in the same boat. The ones who didn't get the attention in the family, but oh well. Here at school they got alot of attention. One of the great things about being popular. Raff made a face at herself mentally, she always felt bad thinking stuff about popularity. It all seemed so shallow. Oh well.
{eh crap again sorry}

Kaitlyn heard her stomach rumble and put a hand to her flat stomach "I'm getting food, you want?" Kaitlyn got up from her bed and walked to the storage closet in the dorm. She got up on pointe and reached to the top shelf to get the plastic container of food. She put it down on the floor and got two diet cokes and a bag of baked potato chips. "And don't give me the crap about how you can't eat this stuff because you do ballet. Your like a stick." Kaitlyn knew that she also looked really thin, but it was natural for her because she had a fast metabolism.

[/size] Rafferty watched as she got up and grabbed food. Her own stomach rumbled lightly."Food sounds good."she said in agreement. She then got off her bed and sat on the floor, grabbing a potato chip. "At this point I don't care.. I'm starving."she said. Maybe that's the problem. She was awfully hungry. She had stayed late practicing ballet and missed the majority of dinner, only getting a little food.
She grabbed some of the potato chips eating them. She hadn't had potato chips in over a month. She had kept herself on a strict diet for ballet, though of course her diet always seemed to slide anytime there was a party, or in this case an impromptu girl's night in. "God these are god."she said eating more of the potato chips. After a month of not eating them, they sure tasted way better than they used to.

Kaitlyn watched as Raff rapidly ate the chips. "And she eats!" Kaitlyn threw her arms up in the air as if she had just won something. "I've accomplished my goal in life now." Kaitlyn opened the can of diet coke and took a sip. "You have no idea how bad this stuff is for my voice. But I don't care, if you can sacrifice your dance body for one night then I can sacrifice my voice. Besides, it's either eating this or the home made chocolate chip cookies the chef from home sent me and these are way healthier if that makes you feel better." Kaitlyn smiled, this was one of the time she loved about having her best friend as her one and only room mate.

[/size] Raff stopped eating a moment and looked at her, "are you sure you're a music student and not a drama student?" she teased because of the dramatic arm motions she had made. She opened her own can of diet coke and took a sip. "cookies?"she asked after a moment. Cookies sounded so amazing, but oh so bad for you. But one couldn't hurt right.
"Chocolate chip cookies.. that sounds really good.."she said. Well if she was going to pig out she mine as well pig out. She could always work it off in the morning, she needed to go for a run anyways. "Do you think we should have some of those cookies?"she asked with a guilty look on her face. She'd feel guilty about eating them.. but they couldnt just let the cookies go to waste now could they?

Kaitlyn got up and walked back to the storage closet and opened the package that had arrived for her yesterday. She got out the container of cookies and slid it over to Raff over the glossy wood floor and then walked back to where they sat in the middle of the dorm room and sat down and crossed her legs. "And now presenting the delicious chocolate chip cookies and if it wasn't 3 in the morning now would be the time to blast the hardcore rock music. But, I'd at least wait to get kicked out by the second week." Kaitlyn laughed and took another sip of her soda.

[/size] Rafferty nodded in agreement. "Such a shame."she said to the fact they couldn't blare music. She quickly grabbed one of the cookies from the container, and then sat up straight looking at the cookie a moment before biting into it. "Okay.. this has officially made my night." she said laughing. She looked around a moment. "Well we don't necessarily have to BLAST the music.. we could always listen quietly... besides if anyone comes we can pretend to sleep and blame the people across the hall."she said with a grin. They'd probably be exhausted from no sleep tomorrow, but oh well Raff was having fun and that's what she needed.

Kaitlyn grinned. "It's not like they'd kick us out anyway. Your like the prima ballerina and I'm lead vocalist. We're too valuable." Kaitlyn batted her eyelashes and then got up once again to get her iPod Classic from where it was laying on her bed. She inserted the iPod into her black iHome and turned it up to the new single by the Pussycat Dolls 'When I Grow Up' Kaitlyn shook her waist a little bit before she sat down again.

[/size] Rafferty laughed as kait plugged in her iPod. Oh this should be fun she thought to herself. So what if they got in trouble, they needed to have some fun, and blaring music at three in the morning was raff's definition of fun. She laughed even more at the little "shake" she did before she sat down again. "Nice little shimmy there."she said. "you should have considered taking dance"she joked. She looked around a moment, before heading to Kait's iPod. "Pussycat Dolls are great and all but do you know what we need?"she said turning her iPod to the song Wannabe by the Spice Girls. "Brings back so many childhood memories."she said. Raff loved the spice girls when she was little.
