Sorry I've not been able to post, guys :3 I've been really busy in the lead up to Christmas. I don't think I'll be able to manage two characters, so would it be possible for someone to 'adopt' Damien xD So sorry!
Allanah Keirnan
"That's absolute bullshit." A sceptical voice caused Allanah to turn, her long mahogany hair blocking her vision for a moment before it settled into place. Her eyes sparked at the challenge. "You wanna bet?" Her soft voice held much more confidence that one would expect from a girl like her. She addressed a male slightly older than her, one that she was familiar with after meeting him the night before, that had questioned her earlier statement. "There is no chance that you would have the guts to hang off of that." His eyes darted to a place behind the girl, but she didn't need to look to see what he had been gesturing to. Besides, she was that one that had announced the fact that she could hang, upside down, off of the railing overhanging the lower deck of the ship with ease for a whole minute. The drop was at least a hundred feet.
It took her only a few seconds to skip over to the railing, glancing behind her once to smirk at the worried looks on her friends' faces. Placing one steady foot on the middle bar, the brunette swung her leg over, followed by the other. Now that she was directly above the deck below, the first spark of fear flipped her stomach, but she kept a determined face and adjusted her position so that her legs were bent over the top bar. Satisfied with the few gasps below and in front of her, she let go of the bars completely with her hands and swung backwards. Her legs remained hooked onto the railing, but she still let out a joyous cry, her hair hanging down and softly swinging in the breeze. She laughed as the adrenaline pumped itself through her veigns and her arms stretched out wide. "Start the timer!" She called out, her soft Irish accent high with excitement and breathlessness. She remained swinging dangerously, her grey eyes scanning the now-upside down deck for anything interesting. A familiar accent caused her head to turn towards a nearby balcony. She gazed in interest as two seemingly Irish men discussed women, one of the short and reasonably unattractive. The other was tall, dark and certainly striking. Well, at least upside-down he was. She was about to call out to them when two strong hands grabbed her shoulders and pulled her up and over the railing.
"That was a minute." The guy from before's voice was gruff with embarrassment as she pushed past him, running a hand through her hair to return it back to its usual position. In a few seconds, she was surrounded by laughing and whooping friends, giving her high fives and awed looks. "Let's go down to the pool." She announced, untying the ribbon of her throw-over, and began to lead the large group to the pool. It took them only a few minutes to get there. And when they did, they received a lot of pissed-off glances. Allanah's stunt with the railing had not gone unnoticed. Delving into her over-sized beach bag, she pulled out a small bottle of sun-tan lotion, dumping all of her stuff at a nearby sun lounger and letting herself fall back on it.
After applying a light yet safe layer of lotion, Ally turned onto her front and closed her eyes. "Wow... You've not even had one drink yet, Ally?" An amused voice caused the Irish girl to open one eye and scrutinise the person that had disturbed her peace. "I'm just saving me'self for tonight, sweetie." She purred, closing her eyes once more to feel the sun's rays soak into her skin. Her mind couldn't help but wander back to the Irishmen on the balcony, speaking of a party they would be attending. She sighed, Check it out later.
