Taking chances

big sister figure

Roxy: *had walked in the studio and over to her corner. as soon as she placed her bag down she turned to jasmine just on time to see her massive smile fade so quickly. and like the big overprotective sister like figure she is for jasmine, this made her sad and she cant not do whatever it takes to make jasmine laugh and forget about whatever is troubling her* hey jj! *walked over to jasmine and seen her flinch from being startled*

Jasmine: *looks up and sees her co-worker. she smiles at her, totally trying to act as cheery as possible to she doesnt get asked a million quiestions* hey pinky! *the nickname she gave roxy because of her very pink hairstyle*

roxy: *pulls a spare stool over and sits next to jasmines desk, so she was facing jasmine* hows it going? ...feels like i havent seen you in years! *was clearly exgagerating herself for jasmines amusment*

Jasmine: *did infact laugh at her friend, feeling greatful that she is so good with knowing when she needs a little pick me up* yeah... ive just been recovering at home, you know how it is! *smiles weakly as she thinks back to the past few days of talking about her feeling and having her people find out that she had started self harming*

Roxy: *has a look of sympathy because she knows about jasmines anxiety and panic attacks. she obviously just hasnt found out about how it started or what triggers them. so she just does what she can to keep jasmine feeling safe while they are at the studio together* sorry to hear that jj! *speaks to her in a soft tone as she reaches out and takes jasmines hand in hers and draws lightly over her palm because she has recently discovered that it is one of the little actions that can calm jasmine down if she starts to get into her head* ...would you like me to help you with anything today? just say the word and ill do it! *smiles at jasmine*

*Jasmine was going back and forth in her mind about what to say. she knew that roxy had work of her own that she would need to be doing. and jasmine doesnt wanna annoy her by holding her back like that. but on the other hand she is also not able to ignore how unexpectedly overwhelmed she is, seeing how many new inquires she has gotten in the last few day*

Roxy: *could see the battle going on in jasmines mine just by the glosy look in her eyes as if she is about to cry. so while still drawing lightly over jasmines palm, roxy is quick to come up with an idea that will work best for jasmine* how about i read you the peoples names and what they would like and you can write it all down. then we can just work through the list as much as you want. *smiles encouragingly as jasmine looks back at her with a weak smile and a little nod of her head* alright! lets see what we got here! *wheels herself over so she is sat infront of where jasmines laptop is*

*for the next 2 hours, roxy was doing axactly what she said she'd do, plus helping jasmine with some of the writing so jasmine can have a break every couple of minutes*

Roxy: *was getting to the last few emails on jasmines computer when she saw jasmine subtly wipe a tear out the corner of her eye. So she turned her stool to be faceing jasmine* its ok jj, thats us finished now! *tucked a piece of jasmines hair behind her ear as she takes hold of jasmines hand again, doing the same light tracing over it* your ready for some lunch? we can go and get something from the shop from across the street, or we can go to the cafe not far from here and get a hot drink. its your call! *smiles sweetly*

Jasmine: *takes a deep breath and loos up at roxy! can we just get something from the shop and bring it back here? i dont really feel like seeing anyone right now. *tries not to get in her head and be mad at herself from being like this after such a relaxed morning*

Roxy: *smiles at jasmine* of course! *stood up and put her hand out for jasmine, helping her onto her feet and into her jacket before going over to her stuf and grabing her jacket, phone and purse* come on then! *smiles sweetly as she reaches out for jasmines hand again and leads her out the studio, making quick work of their shopping trip so she can get jasmine away from everyone again*

*jasmine was very grateful for how nice and understanding roxy was. she really likes having that big sister type of figure in her life. she definitely wouldnt have been able to last so long in the same job if it wasnt for roxy. so she is always making sure to thank roxy for even the smallest of things that most people wouldnt even think to acknowledge*

*from roxy's point of view, it is a little different though! the reason that roxy is so quick to be at jasmines side when she needs it, is because roxy has gained a little crush of jasmine over the years of working along side the brunette. jasmine isnt aware of this though because roxy doesnt wanna scare her away. so roxy just tries to do little subtly nice things to make jasmine feel safe and secure. even though it hurts roxy to hear that jasmine already has someone and is most likely not into girls like that*

*as if on cue, roxy was quick to look up from her place and look over to see jasmine smiling down on her phone! its a smile roxy knows all too well after knowing jasmine so long. she tries her best to swallow the lump of jealously in her and joke around to make jasmine laugh. obviously not to much so she blows her cover of wanting all jamsines attention on her* ooh, is that the boyf  *her way of making it sound less threatning that if she was to pronounce the word fully*

Jasmine: *was infact looking at a text she just got from carlos* yeah, it is! *smiles and blushes a little from the thought of carlos*

Roxy: *wasnt really interested in talking about the guy who goes out with her crush. but she puts on a brave face so she doesnt seem like an ass* whats he saying? *fake smiles*

*Jasmine is totally oblivous to what roxy is dealing with so she just carries on and gushes about how much of an amazing guy carlos is*
