It‘s clear inside of me

From early on Jude had learned to work with your strengths, and not your weaknesses. So she was always confident, that was a strength, right? If she could keep it from turning into arrogance then she figured she’d be just fine in life. It’s not that she didn’t’t appreciate someone who was confident, but it was a fine line between charismatic and annoying. Usually she looked to spend time with people that would benefit her, not to use them, but to make her smile or people that didn’t take life so seriously. But of course she was usually seen around the kids that did drugs or were far too stuck up for their own goods. Sometimes it’s was just a mystery how one person could hold so much love for themselves inside of their own head. Maybe everyone was guilty of that though, loving themselves too much, it was’t a sin really. The opposite of that would be complete self hatred and contempt for every little thing that was wrong with you, so that wasn’t any good either. These fine lines got thinner everyday, and she had trouble keeping her head above water, let alone trying to live by the rules.

“When are you going to realize I‘m just a lot out of your league?” Jude said, giving a smirk before going back to eating some pizza. She was not as quick with the comments as him, and even if she ever managed to have any affect whatsoever on him she doubted he would take it as seriously as she sometimes took what he said. If she called him a fat lazy whore he’d probably enjoy that, she on the other hand would be very annoyed. “Well I didn‘t enjoy the hand cramps I got from re-writing them all for my own benefit.” she said, it had taken her a long time to write them all out, since her brothers decided not to share the computer. Her family was pretty large considering she didn’t’t even think Rosseau had any other siblings. Sometimes she felt sorry for people that were only children, they didn’t’t have anyone around them growing up that they could bug and tease, could slap around a bit and still be there for each other through thick and thin. But usually that pity turned into jealousy whenever all the hot water was gone or she had to wear hand me downs, again. Considering she was the only girl in the 4 children that was nt at all a good thing. “But, you apparently love the sound of my voice so much, so I could read them all too you.” she suggested, only kidding of course.

Jude finished her first piece and couldn’t’t help but still feel guilty over not waiting until his own mother came out. But she’d gone to bed, so obviously she didn’t’t want to sit around eating pizza with two teenagers, who could blame her? She remembered seeing his mother a few times and always thought she was really pretty, which explained at least her sons good looks. It still left the question of where he got that very unique personality from. Not everyone turned out like their parents of course, but most did. “You looked a little eager their Rosseau, anything you want to confess, like undying love for me? Sorry, I‘m already promised off to another man. Tragic, right? I won‘t judge if you need to go cry or something.” she said with a small smirk, feigning sympathy. Reaching into her bag she began pulling out a few things for the motor, “Is it alright if we build this in here? I mean I wouldn‘t want anything to happen to your precious carpet or anything.” Jude said. It was pretty simple to set up, at least for her, because girls were smart and brought instructions instead of trying to figure out how to swim when you were already drowning, it just didn’t’t make sense.

people usually found matt hanging out with other "privileged" kids. he wouldn't be caught dead around anyone other than people who had a status. of course, he'd find a way to bug anyone else. he found a lot of excuses just to talk to people out of his usual 'crowd', though. people didn't know that, though. he didn't really talk to people about things like that. not even his mom, and they had a pretty good relationship going. oh, i've already realized that. i'm just feeling generous tonight. he said, shrugging slightly and returning the smirk. he kind of laughed at her comment about the hand cramps and wiped off his hands on his pants, making sure that there was no sauce or crumbs on his hands or fingertips. well, i've been known to give killer hand massages. he said slowly, but not actually taking her hand like he usually would. he was too afraid of showing how nervous he could really be. usually, he could tell that someone liked him, and he wouldn't be nervous because he wasn't afraid of rejection. but jude was different, he really couldn't read her at all, and that made him frustrated.

oh yeah? what makes you think i like the sound of your voice? i actually find your voice annoying. he said, but he was lying through his teeth. some girls had really high pitched voices that did annoy him, but not her voice. it's not that he really, really liked her voice, but he didn't hate it. she sort of sounded like his mom and it was slightly soothing. oh yeah, jude. i have a really big crush on you and i think about you all the time. he said, obviously sarcastically, but it was kind of true. he just rolled his eyes, though, acting like it was the stupidest idea in the world. of course he wasn't going to confess to her that, again, he was afraid of rejection. that was his biggest fear. that, and losing his mom. if he thought about it, he'd probably call himself a dork right about now. so who's the unlucky guy that you've promised yourself to? he asked, a bit defensive-like. he wasn't sure if she was joking about that, or if she already had a boyfriend. he never really asked her before, but he had always assumed she didn't have one. now he was curious. he never really thought about her being with another guy, but now that he thought about it, why wouldn't she have another guy? she was smart (well, smarter than him) and she was gorgeous. he felt a bit scared now, realizing that he had more competition than he thought.

yeah, sure. erm, i think the carpet can take it. he said, a bit distracted by his thoughts- he didn't even say anything sarcastic or tease her. he glanced down at the materials again and made a face. he wasn't really sure what to think about that. he went to get the notes and sat back near her, reading them over. alright, now he was getting it a bit better.. though he wasn't a total genius just because he was skimming over her notes.

As much as she’d hate to honestly admit this, Jude was pretty picky about who she hung around with. Her entire time in high school was dedicated to being the perfect little blonde that others wanted to be, not who she wanted to be. It explained the heavy partying, drug use and all the lies she covered herself in over the years. In her head this made complete sense, the less people got to know her, the better. It wasn’t that she didn’t like other people, she just didn’t With a small smirk she offered her hand out in front of him, “Massage away.” she said, half jokingly. But before she had the guts to actually hold her hand out any longer she pulled it away and fiddled a little with her hair. She wasn’t exactly opposed to the idea of a massage, but doubted he was serious at all. And, well, it’d look a little silly at least if she just continued holding her hand out like a fool, waiting for him to take it.

Basically, Jude would have very much liked to hear what Mathieu feared, proving he wasn’t the god he liked to think he was, in her opinion. Fears and imperfections were what made people perfect, what made them unique and different from the cookie cutters she’d come to expect. Rolling her eyes she ignored the annoying voice comment, wondering what was wrong with her voice. Then she remembered, this was Rosseau here, he would tell a nun she looked fat in black. “Wow, I‘m so glad to hear that I‘m good enough for you to have a crush on me!” she said sarcastically, it wasn’t like he was serious or anything. Had he ever had a girlfriend? Well, she’d heard some rumours about one night stand sort of things, but who didn’t have a few of those flying around their heads these days. Jude certainly had a hell of a time squishing out rumours, however true or false they might be, about her own little flings. When she heard the tone of his voice get a little defensive she looked over with a slightly confused expression, but smiled. “Actually, he’s quite lucky. Not just any old guy will be good enough for me you know. Rich, good looking, quite the kisser. I haven’t met him yet, but I’m sure he’ll be coming along any time now.” she said, shrugging her shoulders. Normally she saved any boy talk for people who weren’t boys, she didn’t know how much the would like hearing about what a girl looked for in a guy. Her eyes curiously stole another glance towards him, he looked a bit upset almost.

Suddenly she felt very distracted, and tried to focus on what she came there to do. “I don’t know how you manage to distract me so much, we need to get to work.” she said, feeling embarrassed when even he began to pick up notes and get going before her. Getting onto her knees she began to assemble the motors together, she was adding on a propeller and testing how it spun when she finally looked up at him with a bright smile. “I think she’s gonna go.” Jude heard a tiny puttering sound, then heard the motor really get going. It was just like working on one of her cars. “Do you want to attach this to the funnel and I can go get some water to fill it up with?” she asked, standing up with slightly sore legs from being on the ground so long. She hoped he understood what was going on from her notes, otherwise this was just going to go very badly.
