As I walk into the party with Tara to my left, a wave of anxiety hits as soon as I realize I am actually here. In the same house as him. But not with him. I haven’t stepped foot in this house for over a month, because the last time I was here hurt me more than anything.
“You okay?” Tara asks sensing my mood change “Just nervous,” I say while playing with the ring on my finger
“I’ll be here the whole night, if we get split up just text me and we’ll meet back up,” She says softly and I smile “Thank you,”
“Now let’s go get drinks and have a good time,” Tara says before grabbing my hand and dragging me toward the kitchen. As we make our way into the kitchen our whole friend group comes into view.
I haven’t seen most of them in quite a while, after what happened I just needed time for myself and I’ve only seen Tara, Kat, Sam, Jake, and Devyn. Tara, Kat, Devyn, and I hung out last week and I explained to them why I haven’t been around and they understood.
“Kenna!,” Kat says while running to give me a hug “Wow I feel loved,” Tara jokes
“Shut up, I saw you this morning,” Kat laughs before hugging Tara “Wow, Kenna finally decided to grace up with her presence,” Sam laughs
“I just knew your guys’ lives were boring without me so I decided to come,” I laugh before giving Sam a quick hug “Actually my life has been pretty good,” Kevin jokes and I roll my eyes before he pulls me in for a hug
“We’re doing shots,” Kat says and I nod before walking over to the table where the drinks are. Kat pours four shots, one for me, Tara, Devyn, and herself. “We’re getting you fucked up tonight and you’re going to hook up with some hot random guy,” Tara says
“Hell yeah!” Kat says “To Kenna getting laid,” Devyn says while holding her shot up and we all cheers before downing them
We all made our way into the living room where the music was and where everyone was dancing, at first it started with all of us girls dancing together but the girls’ boyfriends had made their way over to them so I let them be and went into the kitchen to get another drink
“Why aren’t you dancing anymore?” I heard a voice say from behind me and my heart dropped “Because,” I said trying my best to ignore him
“Do you want to dance?” He says and I scoff “With you? No.” I say not looking at him
“Why?” He says “Because I said so,” I said before walking away
“Hey,” Crawford says while walking over toward me “Hey Crawf,” I smile
“How’ve you been?” He asks while leaning on the wall next to us “I’ve been good, How have you been?” I say softly
“I’ve been alright. Why you over here alone?” He asks “Eh, just not in the mood for this party,” I say
“You wanna go outside?” He asks and I nod, He grabs my hand and leads me through the crowds of people. We make it outside and we go sit by the pool
We don’t speak we just sit in silence and look up at the sky “What are you guys doing?” I hear someone say and I mentally curse
“We just chillin’,” Crawford says to Colby “What are you doing out here?” I ask him
“I saw you guys walk out here and needed to make sure no one was hooking up outside,” He says and I roll my eyes “Nah, we ain’t doing that,” Crawf laughs
“Good,” Colby says while making eye contact with me “Hey, Crawf, it’s a little cold out here so I’m gonna go back in,” I say with a smile
“Alright, stay safe,” He says while lifting his cup and tilting it toward me “You too, no drunk swimming,” I point at him
“Don’t worry, I’m all good,” He laughs. I get off the chair and run my hands over my dress to make sure it’s straight “You want a hoodie?” Colby asks
“No,” I say rudely while walking away “Kenna what is your problem,” Colby asks while catching up to me
“I don’t know what you’re talking about,” I say while shutting the door in his face “There you are,” Kat says
“Hey,” I smile “We’re doing more shots, come on,” Kat says while grabbing my hand and pulling me into the kitchen
We do about four or five shots before we all make our way back to the dance floor, this time the girls’ boyfriends don’t interfere so it was just us dancing. I look to my left to see Colby talking to some girl leaning on the wall, I roll my eyes and look away.
“Hey, Kenna,” Justin says “Hey,” I smile as he dances closer to me
“You look really good,” He says and I smile “So do you,” I say and he snakes his hands around my waist
“You know, I’ve been thinking about you for a while,” He whispers in my ear “Have you?” I tease
“I always just thought you had a thing going on with Colby so I stayed away but now that I just saw him with that girl, I know that you’re available,” He says
“Yeah, don’t worry, I’m available,” I smile “Good,” He says while moving a hand up to my neck and pulling me in for a kiss
I move my hands to the back of his neck and run my hands through his hair as he pulls me closer by the hand on my waist. He moves his mouth to my neck and starts leaving trails of kisses
“Okay, that’s enough, she’s drunk,” Colby says while pulling Justin away from me “So am I,” Justin says and I try to push Colby away from me
“Colby leave me alone,” I say while trying to get my arm out of his grip “Yeah, dude, leave her alone, we were having fun,” Justin says while grabbing onto my other arm with a tight grip
“She’s drunk, I’m not gonna let her get taken advantage of,” Colby says and I scoff “She wants this,” Justin says while tightening his grip on my arm and it starts to sting
“Justin, let go,” I say trying to pull my arm away but his grip gets tighter “Why aren’t you telling Colby to let you go?” He says
“Because he isn’t hurting me,” I say while trying to pull my arm away “Let her go,” Colby says to Justin
“How about you let her go and we get back to what we were doing,” Justin says “How about no,” Colby says
“Whatever man,” Justin says while letting my arm go and I let out a sigh of relief “Are you okay?” Colby asks while grabbing my arm and looking at it
“I’m fine, don’t pretend like you care,” I roll my eyes before trying to walk away from him but he steps in front of me
“You’re drunk,” He says “So is like every person here, plus I’ve barely had any drinks,” I say
“Well you’re never the type to get drunk and hook up with random people,” he says “I did it with you,” I say, and his face drops
“That was different and you know that,” He says and I laugh “Sure it was, now if you’ll excuse me, I need to go find Justin again,” I say trying to walk around him but I feel arms go around my waist and suddenly I’m thrown over Colby’s shoulder
“Colby put me down,” I say as he walks toward the stairs “No,” He says as I wiggle in his grip
We make it up the stairs and to his room and he sets me down in the middle of his floor “Colby what the hell,” I yell
“Why are you so fucking pissed with me,” He says raising his voice “Are you dumb,” I say pissed off
“Colby, we hooked up, so many times, you treated me like your girlfriend, and told me I wasn’t allowed to hang out with other guys. You told me so many things that made me fall in love with you. Then when I told you, you had the nerve to get mad at me for having fucking feelings!” I yell
“I told you that I didn’t want anything serious!” He says “I know, and that’s my fault for thinking that you’d get over yourself and realize that you do deserve love but clearly I was fucking wrong,” I laugh
“You hurt me, Colby. I poured my heart out to you and you had the nerve to say I was never anything to you and you just used me to pass the time,” I say “So don’t get mad at me for not wanting to talk to a guy who made me feel like shit about myself,”
“Kenna,” He says softly “No don’t even fucking say anything,” I say while walking past him but he grabs my hand and turns me around, and pulls me in to kiss him
I push him away “Fuck you,” I say before walking out of his room and back down to the party. “You okay?” Tara asks me
“I’m perfect, you wanna do more shots?” I ask and she nods
Glad to see Renaissance art form in today's mainstream media. This is the opening credits of second season of HBO's limited anthology 'The White Lotus'.
The work is titled Renaissance. The music is composed by composer Cristobal Tapia de Veer. While it seems at first glance that these are legitimate pieces of Roman art, they were actually designed by the creative team Katrina Crawford and Mark Bashore, with the help of illustrator Lezio Lopes. While images of actual historical paintings from the Villa Tasca in Palermo, Sicily were used, the final design adds latent details. Even though the title cards last under two minutes, they tell a complete narrative about a haughty society that collapses under the weight of its indulgences.

TELL US AT LEAST THREE HEADCANONS ABOUT YOUR CHARACTER:
Stella began dancing when she was 4 years old because she was full of energy and her mother wanted to find the young girl an activity that she enjoyed. She began training in ballet and tap. Eventually she also began taking hip-hop, jazz and contemporary. By the time she was 9, Stella threw her focus into training in standard and latin ballroom when instructor Shirley Ballas visited the studio to teach a routine to some of the senior girls.
Stella knew she always wanted to teach. It was just something she was always good at. It began by helping to teach steps to the younger girls at the studio and eventually tutoring at the high school. By the time she had graduated, she knew she wanted to be a teacher. She kept top marks and earned a full scholarship to University of Georgia.
Upon graduating, Stella was offered a position at the same elementary school she once attended in her hometown. She happily accepted and has been there since. She loves her job and the kids she gets to teach.

OTHER INFORMATION:
What is their hometown?: Atlanta, GA
When is their birthday?: October 30th
TELL US AT LEAST THREE HEADCANONS ABOUT YOUR CHARACTER:
Sage is the only daughter born to her parents, Al and Katrina Fitzpatrick. She grew up in a cushy lifestyle thanks to her parents' careers as realtors in the Atlanta area.
Growing up, Sage always loved a good party. She was invited to every single party growing up and was often asked to help plan them as well. So, it was only natural that she turned it into a career. After graduating high school, she got a job assisting one of the top party planners in Atlanta. After a few years though she got bored, deciding that she didn't like working for someone else. She wanted to be her own boss. She continued working though and enrolled in Atlanta Metropolitan State College and majored in business to learn the ins and outs of starting her own party planning business.
After graduating, Sage went for a road trip along the coast with some friends to celebrate. It was on that trip that she settled on launching her business in Savannah. From there, she found an apartment to rent in nearby Sutton River, choosing to make the commute into the city each day. Since starting her business, she has built up quite the clientele thanks to her friends and connections from Atlanta. She's received raving reviews, having yet to disappoint a client while planning an event.
