[Vela Bella Palaniuk]

Vela wanted to go shopping. She wished she had someone to go with her but the rest of the band was already doing something else so she figured she might as well go by her lonesome self. She looked thought her clothes and decided on a short black dress with a Zipper in the front. She put a bikini under it so she could unzip the top of the dress a little without looking to slutty. She added a pair of heels and grabbed her purse. She had already done her make up in black and purple. Her blonde hair felt loosely on her shoulders. She walked outside and grabbed a cab.

She would find something to do once she got there. She walked first into a coffee shop getting a large black coffee. Then she stopped at a music store to see if there was anything knew. Unfortunately nothing got her attention. She sighed and walked into the sunny street. It was warm today and she whished she hadn’t wore black. What had she been thinking she wondered. As she walked she stopped to talk to a homeless man who was always at the same spot. She had talked to him for the first time years ago. Back then she was not a student but a stripper. A underage stripper at that. He was always so kind to her. never looked at her like she was a piece of meat which was nice for a change. She knew sometimes she dressed to sexy but what could she do about it. She liked her clothes and never went over the top.

As she drink her coffee she walked into a small store that had some vintage type of clothing. She liked to see shopping as a treasure hunt where you never knew what you could find. She was looking for the perfect piece of clothes. She had no idea what it would be but she knew that eventually she would find the perfect one. Maybe a new dress? She wasn’t sure. She rarely went shopping while looking for something specific.

[Jacob Prinze]

Jacob was popping a gum into his mouth as he was wandering around the Mall. He was looking for some inspiration for his new song if possible. Yet, he didn't had any hope on it. It took him a long while in order to get a perfect song out from his mind. He looked around the directories of the mall and noticed a couple of stores that might interest him. Jacob made his way through the crowd before heading towards the escalator. He dusted his leather jacket as many people had bumped against him. He adjusted his shades, hoping no fans would spot him at all.

He reached the floor and immediately avoided the crowds going towards the escalator. He looked around and remembered that he wanted to head to a 'new' vintage store. He chewed on the gum, slotting his hands into the pockets while making his way towards the shop. Just as he stood in the store, he refused to remove the shades and went on looking around the shop, hoping to get something from his slow brain or perhaps some items to bring back to his band or even, himself.

[Vela Bella Palaniuk]

Vela had already picked a few items yet nothing that had made her heart sing. She went into the dressing room to try on a short dress that had cherry print on it. it was rather short and barely covered her ass. She figured it might be good for one show or something like this. As she walked out she saw a strange man wearing shades inside. She raised an eyebrow. She hated when people did that. She liked confidence in someone but this, this was clearly too much even for her. but after one look at him she knew she knew him. He was part of a band and she believed he was part of the same label as her.

She shook her head sending her dark hair flying around her face and walked back into the dressing room. This time she had one a pair of ripped jeans. Their clearly didn’t leave a lot to the imagination as they were ripped in many places. She had on a top that was off on one shoulder and that had the word Poison on it. clearly not really vintage but still it looked good. She walked around the store trying to find some matching accessories to go with it. she turned around as she walked and bumped straight into Jacob. “I’m so sorry.” She apologized to him.

[Jacob Prinze]

Jacob realised he could get them some necklaces or rings to go along with their outfit or some jackets and such. He walked over to the jackets section but not much interest him but there were a couple that did. He grabbed those that he figured would fit his band members before walking over to the accessories section. He wondered what he should get and figured he could try matching with the jackets he decided to get for them. He got a couple of rings and necklace of bones, skulls and some other cool symbols. As Jacob was about to head towards the cashier, someone bumped into him, causing the accessories in his hands fall to the ground.

Jacob scowled a little before picking them up. That's when he heard someone's voice, or the person in front of him, apologising. Jacob soon got his stuff and stood up once again, looking at the person. He broke into a slight smile while removing the shades away to get a better look at the person. "Hey...Aren't you...What's the name again...Vela. You're Vela right? No worries about the accident. It's partially my fault as well. How coincident to see you around here...And..." That's when he realised, he was checking her out but snapped out of it as he knew it was rude.

[Vela Bella Palaniuk]

Vela knew she needed to start looking where she was going. Specially when she heard Jacob scowled a little. She expected a rude comment on his part and was ready to remark something but for some reason when he looked up a smile appeared across his features. He even removed his shades to take a better look at her. “Yup I’m Vela and you are.. Jacob? Right?” she asked him not too sure if she did have the right answer. She could feel him checking her out but didn’t say anything. She had been checking him out earlier when he still had his sunglasses and he clearly was better looking without them.

She wondered how coincidental it actually was. She often meet people while shopping but then again she was a girl and she probably spend a lot more time in stores then Jacob would. “So what brings you here” she asked him as she grabbed a necklace that had a cross on it and tried it on. She wasn’t too sure if this was the look she was wanted to go as but then again she had no idea what look she was looking for. They didn’t have a concert planned soon.

[Jacob Prinze]

Jacob looked at the things he was having and clearly not in a good condition to be standing around and talking with people. He told Vela to wait for him while he placed the items at the counter before walking back to her. He smiled as he spoke to her. "Yeah, that's me." Jacob was a little glad that she knew his name. He didn't want to probe how but he was just glad she knew somehow. Jacob noticed her trying a necklace on which might not really suit that outfit of hers. He rubbed the back of his neck wondering if he could help her.

He definitely didn't want to be rude. He took a piece with a thunder-shaped cross of a necklace and handed it to her. "Why not try this...And to answer your question. I'm here to shop for my band members or hopefully something for me. Though most importantly, getting some inspiration for my songs. What about you? Shopping?" Jacob slotted his hands into his jacket pockets while watching her holding the necklace he passed to her, wondering if she would try it on.

Vela nodded when Jacob told her to wait for him. “well it a pleasure to really meet you, I know I had seen you around before but it’s clearly not the same thing.” She said. Usually when one band meet another they weren’t really friendly. It was like they were afraid that one band would be better then the other one. And well Vela was part of Cherry Bomb and she knew they were not the best. It was not that they were completely awful either. But they just had to fight harder then most people to prove themselves.


She was a bit surprised when he handed her another necklace. Some people might have been offended by something like that, but Vela liked the help she was getting and beside this piece that just had been handed to her was rather great. She tried in on and looked over at Jacob. “how does it look?” she asked him. “It’s quite nice of you to get stuff for the other band members. And yes shopping, I figured I might need some new clothes eventually so why not start today.” She laughed a little.

[Jacob Prinze]

Jacob smiled while looking back at the table full of necklace, if she was not fond of that, there could be some others which might be favour of. He was glad she took the necklace from him and tried it on. As she asked how did she look, Jacob turned and looked at her. He nodded while speaking to her. "It looks matching. Great. About what you say earlier...Are all bands so...I don't know...Like keep themselves?" Jacob looked at her while wondering before snapping out of it.

Jacob laughed along slightly before speaking once again. "Yeah, well, since I'm out here, I figured I could get something for them. I mean without them, I might be nothing. And I see, it's natural. And guess what, you found me." Jacob chuckled slightly before holding it back. "Sorry, that was not amusing at all." Jacob coughed a little before rubbing the back of his neck, feeling all embarrassed.

She shrugged a bit at his question. “Not always. But we mostly see each other at concert and meeting. And during those times, every one wants to be the best so there is a lot of friction.” She said taking the necklace off and putting it to the side. She didn’t want t let it get mixed up with another one as she planned on bying it. “But I’ve seen some out of work related things and most of them are quite great…”

She nodded. Cherry Bomb was not her band. The other two were fully part of it. it was their band but she knew that often there was one person in the band that was consider the leader of it. the one that had started it all usually. “she laughed when he said it had no been amusing at all. “you are quite cute you know.” She told him. She could see him blushing a bit and it was really adorable.

[Jacob Prinze]

Jacob cleared his throat before slotting his hands back into his pockets. For certain reason, he dared not look at her when she was looking at him. He moistened his lips while his eyes wandering around the shop, yet it still fall onto her. He nearly choked when she mentioned he was quite cute. He slammed his palm on his chest before rubbing it. "Uh...thanks? Not knowing if it was a compliment or tease but I accept it."

Jacob shook his head before looking back at her. He recalled something she mentioned earlier. Though, he could not probed into her band affairs. It might not be the right thing to do. No matter how much he wanted to know what she meant, he still had to keep it low profile. "So...That's all you're getting?"

[Vela Bella Palaniuk]

She giggled when he said he wasn’t too sure if it was a compliment or not. “Let’s say it’s a bit of both.” She told him. He was different then the other boys she had meet before. He was kind of innocent or something like that. It was quite nice. She smiled at him. “nope I’ve tried on a few outfits” she told him pointing to a changing room that had lots of clothes in it. “I’m not done yet.” She added.

“How about I give you a catwalk show?” she asked him. “I could try on clothes and you would give me your honest opinion.” She mentioned. It would pass the time and of course it was always nice to have someone tell you if something was right on you or not. Beside she could see the way Jacob was looking at her. she wanted to toy with him a little bit.
