45 mph around corners, Torque wasn't quite sure why he'd agreed to get on the back of the motorbike with his dealer. The man was clearly crazy and Jonathan was rather sure he'd just snorted a line of coke before they came out of the house. If the police spotted them, they would be done for sure and Torque didn't want the cops associating him with dealers any time soon, not if it meant jail.
"Sid, are you sure this is quite safe?"
No answer came back from the driver, he was busy weaving in and out of traffic and speeds high enough that if they crashed, they'd probably be dead. It didn't make it any better Torque was the only one of the two wearing any sort of protective gear. Even then, it was only a helmet meaning his skin would likely end up all over the road should they crash. Red light, oh thank God.
"Sid mate, I've got to be off, this is my stop"
The driver provided no resistance as Jonathan got himself off the bike and handed him the helmet. Sid placed it over his head just after sending Jonathan a quick wink that said 'Any time you need a hit'. Torque was quite aware of the small baggy in his pocket at this time and quickly walked off, in to the nearest shop he could find that was open on a Sunday.
As fate would have it, he wandered in to a McDonalds restaurant and having no reason to leave as soon as he'd sat, he wandered up to the front counter. It all looked so revolting but he had to eat something, he'd not touched food all day.
"Yeah I'll just take a hamburger with fries mate, medium."
A voice mumbled something back about whether he wanted cheese or not.
"Cheese? Foul stuff, not for me, just plain please."
Torque would hand over some cash, take the meal which had arrived at the counter before he'd even gotten his change and find a seat somewhere in the restaurant. Finally, a chance to catch his breath.

Nothing better than to fill the gut, clog the arteries, and increase the blood pressure. For the actual fact that the girl barely got anything to eat at all, much less McDonalds before this was kind of huge. There she was. Standing outside the building. Red sign all lit up from behind, and the yellow arch making her hungrier.
Especially when the door opened and the fresh scent of salted and grease covered tasties wafted out.
*grumble grumble*
Be quiet you!
Her stomach was protesting. This close to food and she hadn't given into it's needs and wants. See thing is when you had a pocket full of change, mostly provided by a few 'take a penny ' trays that you had visited today. Well.. one had to really decide just what you were going to spend your free cash on. If only she could get a job. Then she could earn actual money, but she wasn't sure that anyone would hier her anyway.
And really... Mickey D's?
One would hope she was better than that.
The door opened, by her own pale hand and the grimey girl stepped in. Even though she had moved into the campus on Fremont High, it was still hard for her to get completely clean. First off, she had no money. See above references for job. So she could not afford detergent, soap, shampoo, toothbrush, toothpaste, clean clothing.. and many other things. Thus while she had a nice bed to sleep in, she could only do so much to clean herself up.
Least she got sleep!
Sleep!
Some skinny dark haired lad had only just left the register with a burger, fries, and a coke. Medium sized. Why was everything in three sizes these days? Did they really need to be? Couldn't you just order a burger and be happy with it. But Berlin was not here for the meal deal. She wasn't here to supersize. Oh no. She was here for..
THE VALUE MENU!!
How could you NOT take advantage of that?!
It's a great value!
Moving up to the counter she brushed her blonde girls back. Some of them, the unruly ones. The ones that didn't listen, kept falling from the black scrunchi that kept her tangled locks at the back of her neck.
*grumble grumble*
Impatient bastard!
"Hi! Welcome to McDonalds, home of the value menu! What can I get for you today?!"
Oh wow.. waaaay too hyper to be workin' here.
"uhhhhhh ..."
Blue eyes floated up to the menu over head. Finding the value menu which was this tiny little section on the right. No pretty pictures for that. Hmmm what was the best value though for her dollar. It was important to know these things. Luckily food wasn't taxable. Dollar was a dollar.
"Hamburger?"
"Sure! One dollar please!"
Oh right.. money.
Reaching into the jean pocket of her clothing. Berlin pulled out a huge handful of change. Mostly pennies, a couple quarters a few nickles and a dime! Letting it all fall on the counter she beamed.
"It's a dollar I swear."
Wow creepy look from the Mickey D's lady
The burger was given to her in a fresh paper wrap. Might as well eat here.. but where .. to sit...?
Ryorin's stomach was on an anger-fest for the last thirty minutes and Ryorin thought her stomach might punch her from the inside in order to get Ryorin to hurry. Yes, Ryorin was hungry but her stomach seemed in a slothful mood at the moment. Ryorin couldn't take it anymore as she headed into the nearing restaraunt and found herself in a McDonalds. It wasn't the best place Ryorin would've chosen but at this time Ryorin could've cared less.
Normally, Ryorin hardly went to fast food places. It was true that most places were unhealthy, but that wasn't the reason why. It was that she prefered to eat her own cooking or cooking made by others that she knew. She enjoyed spending time with others and eating other's cooking and sharing her own. Well, she guessed McD's wasn't that different, but she didn't know who was cooking and the food had a different quality to it. However, that didn't matter now.
She waited in the small line, the girl ahead of her ordering hamburger, paying with a handful of coins, all the while her stomach getting even worse. When the order was made and the girl moved, Ryorin quickly stepped forward as the one working there asked for her order.
"Two cheeseburger's, no pickles, an order of ten McNuggets, a Chicken Salad, and a Large Drink."
She wondered if that would be enough for her. After all, Ryorin not only loved to eat but had an extremely high metabolism. Not to mention she might go on a huge eating spree soon as if she had just broken up with a guy she loved. Not a good combination, especially for one's wallet. Good thing Ryorin's family was as rich as they were. She wondered how she might survive on a small budget.
As she payed with a twenty and stood there waiting, her stomach lurched again and on instinct she punched her own stomach slightly, in an effort to calm it down, but only making it worse. Soon the tray was set down with her food on it and she wasted to time grabbing both it and the cup, filling it with ice and Sprite, one of the few soft drinks she enjoyed, before turning, her eyes quickly spinning for a place to sit. Oh god if she could only find a place quick enough to eat.[/size][/ul][/color]

In retrospect, finding a seat proved harder than it may have originally seemed. Many people had recently flocked to get their cheap ass, kill your insides, delicious burgers apparently as near enough every area was taken by some group of people you'd feel rude imposing on. Torque wasn't one to wander round looking for a seat as if he were in a car park finding a space though, he merely stood there and surveyed the area, waiting for the chance to arise.
By now, he and two girls were left stood looking slightly foolish, food in hand and just kind of lingering. SPACE! A family had moved out of one of the semi-circle sofa areas with a table in the center and this left enough space for three or four people. Now Torque wasn't one to race but he wasn't a gentleman either and given that he and two girls were looking for seats, a compromise was in order. He'd catch eye contact with the two girls, flick his head towards the seats motioning them to follow and wander over.
The girls were left with two choices. He wasn't exactly being rude when he had made the gesture, in fact he had essentially just offered them a seat and so they could either follow him, take the seat and see what happened when three strangers were stuck together in a Maccies restaurant or they could stand there looking like complete twonkers. Torque was fairly sure he knew what they'd do, he wouldn't have even bothered with eye contact if he didn't expect some form of reaction.
He sat, squishing round to the back of the table so they would have enough space to go either side of him but not next to each other, ensuring he was in the middle (He liked to feel like a pimp on occasion). Right now, Jonathan was becoming increasingly aware of the small baggy filled with white powder in his left pocket but he'd put those thoughts aside and tuck in to his fries before the girls had seated themselves.
Maybe today would be a good day for picking up a couple of chicks, assuming they weren't jail bait. That wasn't always necessarily a bad thing though.
Kids laughing, babies screaming, parents bitching. It was crazy! Apparently Mickey D's had changed since last she had been here. What happened to the jungle gyms and ball pits. What happened to the outside playground with the spinning wheel. Everything that had once been the last time she and her brother had enough for Mickey D's.
Anyway!
The point was that it was packed. Kids, parents, grandparents, and what not filling every seemingly possible seat. She supposed that she 'could' ask someone if she could join them. But being the fact that she wasn't exactly clean nor was she really good with other people... that miiiight not be the best idea.
The guy though, the one that had moments ago been at the counter before her. Was standing there, with his tray of greasy tasties ready to be devoured still in his hand. And a girl, the one that had gone to the counter after Berlin had left herself. However, it seemed all three were faced with the same delima.
Where to sit!?
They had tasties getting cold people!
Finally it seemed that someone was about to move, getting up the vacated the table leaving it empty and dirty. But Berlin didn't mind she had eaten on worse. She'd eaten in a dumpster before because she was too hungry to worry about getting the food out of the dumpster. Not like it mattered. Dirty food in a dirty place. It was all the same really.
Before Berlin could move, the boy did.
Well damn. Maybe it would more prudent to eat her dinner on the way back to the school. But it seemed so .. NORMAL to eat it here in the restaurant. Like other normal people. Which she had never been normal so being so for a few moments was a coveted feeling.
Wait.. did he just look at me?!
Was that a wink?!
Berlin blushed, but she understood the sentiment. She was to follow he would share the large booth table with her, and maybe the other girl too. Berlin's head turned to see the other girl, and she gave her a warm smile before heading over to the table and sitting to the dark haired boy's right. Putting her burger on the table she opened it with her pale fingers. Looking over at the boy she gave him a smile.
It was a short statement. Quick to the point and as she finished and the nugget landed on the tip of her left index finger, it was shot into her mouth.
Perhaps now she'd be a bit more sane and right of mind now.[/size][/color][/ul]

"Torque. Or rather, Jonathan Torque. Jonathan Nicolas Torque if you want to go in to it. People call me Snow. Furthermore, you are both welcome".
He wasn't the biggest charmer but there was a certain tingle in his voice that usually made people want to know more. Perhaps it was the way he phrased his sentences or maybe there was just something about him. For now, fries mattered more. Torque had consumed half a box in a short amount of time, needless to say he was hungry now that he had started. Maccies fries were addicting but not enough for him to resist the taste of that wonderful burger. "Now, I'm not one for fate nor am I the most gentlemanly of people so I'll be blunt, you two girls from the Collective? No offense but you look about the right age, know what I mean?"
He'd pick up the burger, taking his first bite in to it and putting his head back for a moment, thanking God he'd made it to his next bite of meat after that insane bike ride. He'd place the burger back down, slurping the coke and taking a proper look at the girls. One seemed a little dirty as if she'd come from living in a box through a car wash on the way here. She was attractive still though, Jonathan was a little concerned about her age however, not a huge issue for a one time occurrence.
The other girl, much neater although she certainly must have been hungry for her order. A nearby kitchen staff walked past to quickly clean up the table and Torque held out a five dollar note. She was female and she seemed to click instantly there was money in it for her, blushing slightly. "Do me a favour, get these girls some dessert and keep the rest. Now, Berlin and Ryorin was it? Lovely names, care for something sweet? On me although not literally."
The kitchen staff blushed again before listening in to see what the girls would order.

Ryorin. Interesting name to say the least. not like Berlin was a normal name in itself. It most certainly was not. Who named their children after cities or providences. Especially ones that weren't Amercian when they were born and raised in America. Least she assumed so... she doubted they were from Canada when her brother was born, and then Germany when she was born.
That even sounded too far fetched to her.
"Nice to meet you Rin."
Instant nickname for teh win!
Muuuch easier to say than Ryorin. Though pretty.
"Torque. Or rather, Jonathan Torque. Jonathan Nicolas Torque if you want to go in to it. People call me Snow. Furthermore, you are both welcome".
Snow? Seriously?! That HAD to be the lamest nickname ever.
"OH uhhhhmmm... hi."
Wow.. How did someone reply to a name that was a mile long and then followed up with 'people call me snow'. WTF!! He didn't have white hair, he wasn't that pasty, and he wasn't even wearing white! It made NO sense. Whatever... People were strange.
"Now, I'm not one for fate nor am I the most gentlemanly of people so I'll be blunt, you two girls from the Collective? No offense but you look about the right age, know what I mean?"
Oh Collective. That ws the school right? She really didn't pay much attention she just wanted to be normal for a little while. She didn't want to remember living in the box in the car garage she was trying to set out and make a life for herself. If only she could pass. That was the real challenge.
Berlin opened her burger wrapper and shoved half of the burger, which was tiny.. it WAS after all a dollar, in her mouth and chewed it as she nodded answering 'Snow's' question.
"Uh huh."
It was all she could manage at the moment. Now that her stomach was getting the sweet release of food she was already shoving more of the burger in. Barely letting her mouth get a chance to swallow before the next bite was in there.
It took three bites people, and the tiny burger was gone. Damn she was STILL hungry. How unfair was that. Maybe she could bust into someone's dorm while they were gone, that was always a good idea. Most of these people came from rich families and they could spare a few hot pockets and cans of soup it wasn't like they were actually eating them. They were going out and ordering in, those were emergecy rations and Berlin was an emergency. One of the wait staff walked by collecting trays and crap from the empty table close by when 'Snow' *dumb ass name* hailed her giving her a five dollar bill.
Did he know how long Berlin could eat off of FIVE WHOLE DOLLARS?!
"Do me a favour, get these girls some dessert and keep the rest. Now, Berlin and Ryorin was it? Lovely names, care for something sweet? On me although not literally."
"I do!"
Berlin piped up all too quickly and she blushed. Looking over at the waiter that was standing there waiting for the girls to decide what they wanted. Berlin's eyes shifted to the menu that was hanging up over the registers before she looked back at the girl.
"One of those icecreamy things.. with the oreo on it!"
Ohhh God yes!!! OREO!
Turning back to Frosty. As she decided now to call him since well..Snow was lame. Not that Frosty was better but in her mind it was at least much more comical than not.
"Thankies Johny! So.. you're kinda .. old...er. Where do you go?"
She probably couldn't eat sweets if she tried right now. There was a strange system in her body and how it worked. Every once in a while, and this wasn't about her period, she would get in a certain mode, perhaps three to four times a year, where she would eat nothing but sweets. Perhaps could was a better word. While she tried to eat healthy during that time, sweets were hardly ever healthy. It would go on for three days before it would quit. Perhaps because of that, she really hates sweets other than that time. That doesn't stop her every once in a while from eating a sweet, like ice cream or something, but at this time, there was no way she could.
"I couldn't eat a sweet right now if I tried."
She told the guy, finally realizing that he was at least trying to get something out of one of them with his remarks and while they blushed, Ryorin ate.. She was hardly into men like that, but she let him slide for a minute. She didn't know anything about him and while he didn't have much of a chance with Ryorin, he did have that very small chance. Berlin seemed more interested anyways.[/size][/color][/ul]
So it was yummy ice cream for Berlin and... shockingly nothing for Rin as she had apparently now been named Torque would catch the waitress quickly before she left by raising his hand ever so slightly.
"If my lady Rin here isn't having any dessert, bring over some more nuggets would you? I'm sure we could manage several of them between the three of us"
Jonathan gave that nice guy smile as the girl left, that kind that made you sure he could do no wrong, that made people fall in love with him. It didn't take him very much effort to fake one of those smiles and yet they always seemed real enough. Smiles were all in the eyes, once you knew that then there was no way people could catch on unless they knew you better than that. There was a good chance Berlin and Rin would have caught his little smile as well, the staff member certainly had and she walked away trying to conceal the fact she was turning red.
Turning his attention back to them now that the order had been made, he'd laugh at Berlin's comment about his age. He knew he looked pretty damn good although probably a little his senior considering he was only 20 years of age and he never got IDed anywhere, not even the places that checked if you were 25. Turning his straw in his drink, looking in to Berlin's eyes trying to guess what she was thinking, he'd speak.
"Well now, a little bit bold of you to ask perhaps but considering I invited you here, I feel as if an answer is only fair. I'm attending O' Hare University, it's part of the Collective and I'm only 20 thank you very much"
Torque would grin a little, he knew he could find them both on campus somewhere now if he ever wanted to meet them in the future. Sitting back, he'd finish his burger now, aware that he was becoming more and more hungry. As he relaxed, he somehow wished he had transported the powder in his pocket to a safer location before he had sat down for a meal and a casual flirting session but this was the situation now.
*Clink*
The dessert and the nuggets arrived. Torque made a sweeping hand motion for the girls to tuck in before pinching a single nugget and chewing it slowly having missed the taste of chicken. Swallowing the delicious meat, he'd grin once more, this time to himself, suddenly overcome with the idea of a threesome however unlikely it might be.
"Is this something more up your alley Rin, my dear? Oh and I do hope you enjoy your treat Berlin, I'm rather a fan of oreos myself, that must be delicious".
He knew how to treat his girls right, he spent money of them, made sure they were comfortable. Now he figured he was only a few steps from bedding at least one of them. In reality it was probably a lot further away than that but a man could dream.
"So, do you girls like a man in uniform? School uniform that is, I don't mean to imply anything rude of course, merely curious about your opinions on our uniforms. Of course."
It seemed Rin didn't want any sweets, well Berlin would have happily eaten her share but instead it seemed that Frosty would like to rather order her more nuggets. She had the figure of a model. So that left a few options. She either puked it all up, took pills, was addicted to drugs, or maybe... she just was lucky!
"Well now, a little bit bold of you to ask perhaps but considering I invited you here, I feel as if an answer is only fair. I'm attending O' Hare University, it's part of the Collective and I'm only 20 thank you very much"
Berlin chuckled. It probably was bold to ask but it wasn't as if the guy was a girl.. or WAS he... the song LOLA began chiming in her head. La.. la. .la.. Lola! Berlin chuckled again at the sound of the song, maybe the boy's name would change from Frosty to Lola now. Afterall, he was almost too pretty to be completely male. Or maybe he was one of those people that were confused. He was born with boy bits but the inside was girl bits!
OOoooo! Drama!
"What do you study at the university."
TASTIES HAD ARRIVED!!!
Ohhh yeah. There in front of her was the holy grail of the tasties. Had she the money on her own she could live on a McFlurry. There was just something amazing about it. There was even calcium in it, good for the bones! If your bones weren't already so deprived that they probably didn't even get the calcium because off of the over abundance of calories went straight to making her body run. She would probably need a nap after this. Pulling her McFlurry closer to her, she opened the lid and got her spoon out.
It was red!
Gently she scooped up a generous amount of tasty into the spoon and then shoved the spoon into her mouth. OMG!! TASTY overload! "mmmmmmmm" she groaned loudly as she began to eat again and again.
Wait a tick!
Nuggets!
Berlin reached over and shyly plucked a nugget out of the communal nugget box that Frosty/Lola had gotten one out of moments ago. Taking two, she quickly moved back before someone could get pissed that she had taken them. But she was starving, dipping her nuggets in the flurry she began to eat them hungrily. God she was hungry! It wasn't fair that she was homeless but that was the life that she had gotten for herself and she wouldjust have to figure out how to make ends meat some how.
"Is this something more up your alley Rin, my dear? Oh and I do hope you enjoy your treat Berlin, I'm rather a fan of oreos myself, that must be delicious".
"Oh oh it's tasty! I promise it is! Here! have a bite."
Scooping up a generous amount of her tasty McFlurry she moved the spoon over to him so that he could just lean forward and take a bit. She wasn't afraid of his germs or eating after him afterall she had eaten after worse, it was just one of those things that you did when you were homeless and had to eat. If he took the bite she would giggle and return to her own flurry again, and if not she would pout and take the bite herself.
"So, do you girls like a man in uniform? School uniform that is, I don't mean to imply anything rude of course, merely curious about your opinions on our uniforms. Of course."
Man.. in.. uniform. Berlin shrugged.
"Uhhhh I guess so, I don't really have much experience I've only attended one day at school and to be honest I wasn't really payin' attention to the people around me. I got lost." A blush crossed her features at the confession of this. "But, I supose on the right kind of body a uniform would be hot."
She said to Torque as well as the staff member. Well, she could eat a lot and it was going to get digested and she was going to work it all out later during training. There wasn't anything bad that would really come from this and it wasn't a bad thing to gorge oneself and enjoy ever now and then.
The smile from Torque came, and Ryorin felt a little bit from it, but it was hardly nothing. Ryorin wasn't the type of girl to look for good qualities in a guy and judge guys just by that. She just spent time with them on friendly terms and if she ever started to feel more towards the guy, she did. Looks hardly mattered, even though they were a plus. She remember when she first met Cain. It wasn't the best of meetings but as the two spent time with each other she started to like him more and more. He did look handsome, or hot, whichever was the better way to put it, but it hardly effected her decision and it was why no guy would look better to her than Cain until she did love someone more. She hadn't seen him but she still oved him.
So, Torque went to the University. He did look quite old compared to the two, with Berlin probably fifteen or sixteen and Ryorin eighteen. He was likely in his low twenties.
Ryorin grabbed a single nugget from the new order and popped it into her mouth as she finished the burger. She still had another burger and the salad to go and she was hardly close to being full. Sometimes she wondered if she had two or even three stomachs.
"A man in uniform? It doesn't really matter to me. Of course, you could say I'm different from other girls in looking for guys."
Oh, that was a bit of an understatement. She was far different.
"Of course, if I knew you a little better, than I just might like it."
Herself, she hated uniforms, at least the female type. She just could not adjust to the shoes and how the shirt and blazer felt.
Berlin obviously seemed to return her own flirts to his. God, Ryorin felt different in that regard. But she liked being different. Well, now that she thought about Cain, perhaps she wasn't THAT different.
She would ask a question just after Berlin asked hers.
"So, what do you like in girls?"
A simple question, but it could very well lead him into a trap, although with how he was acting, she doubted that. She was into this to have a bit of fun.
She smiled as the question came out before popping a nugget in in a sort of laugh.[/size][/color][/ul]
The more time passed, the more Torque had come to realize his company for both current and recent situations had brought out a considerable amount of lust in him. It was only fair to say he was well on the way to being an official titled man whore. For now though, he'd simply roll with it, picking up girls where he could and using them for his pleasure.
He had no intention for commitment unless it was an open relationship and there was something in it for him and by this, Jonathan merely meant constant sex and money. He wasn't a prostitute nor an actual whore but he'd be damned if he didn't try and collect for his 'savings' wherever he could, that was important and life was far too short for morals.
Nipping the bite of food he had been offered, he'd shoot the girl a mischievous grin as she giggled away to herself and lick his lips, making sure she'd notice the flash of lust in his eyes. Pinching another nugget, he'd chew, swallow and in a very cheeky motion, take a sip from Ryorin's drink, his smile reflecting how cheeky even he thought it was to do so. How she would react was a different matter but it entertained him at least.
QUESTION TIME
"I'm not a huge fan of school uniforms myself although they are great things. Anything that sticks to the 'tight shirts and short skirts' rule is rated highly in my books. My girls on the other hand? Well they'd have to be charismatic and able to speak their opinion but they'd also need a sense of obedience"
Torque would toss one last nugget in to his mouth, eat it quickly and continue.
"When I say shush, I like a girl who understands... exactly what I mean."
The entire thing was one big sex hint but the final sentence just laid it out on the table, especially the emphasis on the word 'exactly'. He'd sit back now, grinning and feeling glad he was in the middle of the two girls as he looked either side of them for reactions. He wasn't expecting them to pounce but as long as the message had gone through, he'd be pleased.
He was good in bed, he knew it. He wanted them to know it as well.[/size][/color][/font]

There was nothing like, a nice round table, people to eat with, and communal nuggets. This was when life had a good moment. See Berlin's life was filled with the kind of moments that most often.. she either couldn't remember or didn't want to remember. But to be honest, this was kind of nice. Sitting here with people she had only just met.. incase you're new that's Johnny and Rin, and eatin nuggets... icecream.. and havin' a blast.
Rin it seemed not to really care either way on the uniform topic. To Berlin it didn't matter. Clothes were clothes. She had learned a long time ago that they really didn't mean jack. Sure people could spent fortunes on them, but unless you had something inside.. something that made you someone.. .well then they were just decorations.
Like Bling!

Obedience?
Huh!? So he wanted to dominate the girls that he was with. Now, thing was, Berlin was shy and giggly and cute. But she had lived on her own for most of her life and she was not about to let some skinny dark headed, nugget eatin' boy tell her what she could or could not do. Besides, women should be able to do as they pleased and speak their minds when they wanted. What it sounded like he wanted was a woman that would be independent and opinionated when he wanted her to be and shut the hell up when he didn't.
Get a mail order bride or something Lola!
"When I say shush, I like a girl who understands... exactly what I mean."
Exactly?
Huh?
Welllllll Berlin was lost now.
But deciding not to let on to that fact she went back to her tasty oreo treat. The fact that he had flashed that.. lusty.. glare.. thingy at her a moment ago when he took the bite she had offered him was not lost on the girl. And it kept replaying in her mind over and over again. Berlin decided to give the boy a bit of her own medicane. Lifting a spoon of her tasty she turned it upside down. Blue eyes flashed up to meet his eyes for a moment as she slid the spoon into her mouth, taking the icecream with her tongue before sloooowly pulling it back out.
Take that Lola.
A grin on her face as she returned to her icecream.
"Well what do you look for in a guy, then Ms Rin?"
