Leigha McNight was bored to tears. Her brother, Devon, had dragged her to The Brewery to "listen to real music and get inspired". Whatever. Leigha had always wondered what was going on in Devon's (possibly screwy) head. Currently, some thrash metal band was playing, giving Leigha a major headache. Leigha preffered indie pop or soft rock. When this night was over, Leigha would cuss Devon out, and tell him next time to bring someone else. She asked the bartender for another glass of cold water, and hoped someone would save her from this boring place.

Ugh, Ocean Springs can be so boring when your new, stuck babysitting your neice all the time, and don't know very many people your own age. Poor Kirsten. She was so tired in the mid-day, that she decided to stop by the brewery for a nice "pick me up" treat. Coffee was probably the only thing that could wake her up right now. She walked through the doors and into the brewery and began pondering the menu for the drink that would hit the spot. She was wearing a pair of denim capris and was sporting a pink and white cami top. Her hair was long and curly in a bun, as usual. Her feet began to hurt as she waited in line, since she chose to wear heels today, but thankfully the line moved rather fast and a nice expresso was soon in her hands.
She turned to walk away from the register, and just as she began making her way into the seating area, some kid on a skateboard ran into her and up went the coffee. Now, since we all know that "what goes up, must come down", it's not hard to realize that the hot expresso spilled all over poor Kirsten's top, bottoms, and even hair, "Hey, watch it!", she screamed at the kid, before her face turned bright red with embarassment. She noticed that everyone was staring at her...great.

Leigha heard a girl shrieking. Turning around, she saw a girl covered in coffee. She tried not to giggle. Standing up, she walked up to the girl and offered a hand. "Hey. I'm Leigha. Need some help?" Leigha was an expert on accidents. She could have you looking like nothing ever happened in five minutes flat.

Kirsten was never one to ask or even accept any help, but seeing as that was she covered in scorching hot coffee, she made an exception when some girl came over and offered a hand. It was way better than having all those snickering people talking about her, anyway. She sighed and then reached for the girl's hands, "I'm Kirsten, and actually yea, so thanks.", she plainly replied as she was lifted up. Once she was standing, she began wiping herself off, "I'm just going to step into the bathroom for a second. I can't take all the staring. You can come if you want though..." she explained, trying not to be rude to the only person in the room who cared enough to help her; Leigha.

"I can help. I'm a fashion disaster whiz." Leigha said. "Oh, I also have some extra clothes in my bag, if you need them. We look about the same size." Leigha said, motiong to here heart-printed tote bag.

Wow. Words cannot explain how realized Kirsten was once Leigha offered her some fresh clothes, "Yea, we probably are the same size. What size are you though?", she questioned as she mentally compared her waist size to that of Leigha's, looked pretty close to the same size to her, anyway. Kirsten giggled slightly when Leigha called herself a 'fashion disaster whiz', "Good because I'd say hot coffee spillage is definitely a fashion 911 situation.", she responded with a friendly smile.

"Well, I'm a four. But these are a little bigger, I think." Leigha said, thinking. "Here," She said, handing Kristen the bag. "Just use whatever's in there." Leigha stifled a yawn. Pulling an all nighter last night probably wasn't the best idea, she thought. Leaning against the bathroom wall, she wondered what her friends were doing.

Kirsten bit her lip softly when she heard Leigha was a four, "I'm about a five, but I'll try it.", she responded as she stepped into a bathroom stall to change. She put the new outfit on and other than the skirt being a little short, it fit pretty decently. She stepped out of the stall and glared at herself in the mirror, "Wow, doesn't look half bad.", she told Leigha with a smile, "Thanks so much. Your a life saver!", she remarked with an even wider smile, "I so owe you, big time.", she finished as she fluffed her hair.

Leigha re-glossed her already glossy lips. Smacking them together, she said "Nah, you don't owe me anything." She said, as a thought passed through her head: how cute Kristen and Devon would be together. A sparkly gleam shone in Leigha's pretty gray eyes. Anyone who knew her would come to reconize that gleam: the gleam that someone was about to get in trouble.

Kirsten smiled again at Leigha's kindness, "Please, let me repay you, somehow.", she pleaded. She felt like how people felt after somebody just saved them from drowning. Okay so that's a little melodramatic of her, but hey...right before Leigha offered a hand, the coffee was burning her skin, so in a way she was drowning in it. She noticed that Leigha gave her a glare that told her that Leigha was scheming up some plan for her, "I know that glare, what do you have up your sleeve?", she teased with a raised eyebrow.

"Ohhh....nothing." Leigha said, with a small smirk. "Hey, I think you should meet my brother. You'd totally like him." Leigha said, trying not to sound like this was a major relationship set up. In her mind, Leigha was thinking: Hmm... Now that Devon has some good potential girlfriend material, he better not go all "Girls suck" on me.

Kirsten so totally knew Leigha was up to something, "Oh I see, you want to fix me up with your brother?...", she replied with a raised eyebrow, "Well you did help me out, I guess it wouldn't hurt to meet him. Do I seem like his type? Tell me something about him.", she remarked, the questions accidentally pouring out one by one. Oh great, now she made herself sound anxious, "Oops, sorry. I didn't mean to go all twenty questions on ya.", she apologized as her cheeks turned red, again.

"Oh yes, most deff his type. And he loves girls who ask questions and people who aren't obsessed with themselves." Leigha said, causally, as if everyday she met a girl with coffee on her and then tried to set her up with her brother. "Oh, and he's like me, but nicer. And a guy."

Kirsten couldn't help but laugh as Leigha bragged about her brother, "Well I'd hope he be on the male gender.", she teased, "I'll give it a shot, where is he?", she questioned as she pulled her own lip gloss out and applied it. Leigha sure seemed set on setting her and Devon, was it?, up.

As they walked out of the bathroom, Leigha dragged Kristen over to Devon and said, "Devon, this is Kristen. And vice versa." And with that, Leigha was off. "Hey. Is my sister trying to set us up?" Devon asked Kristen bluntly.
