Giving a chance

An hour went by and the captain came out in the loud speaker, "we are not making a decent on Los Angeles, touch down in five minutes," he said before going quiet. Jasper still didn't stir, he sat motionless. Charles tapped him on the shoulders again and he opened his eyes removing the headphones a smile wide, "were almost there. I can't wait to start your new look," Jasper said as he messed jp his hair. he looked at her and saw her unease though, "are you okay?" he asked her worried.

VIXENS STORM
Clara was lost in her mind, snapping out when the captain spoke. She tried to not reveal it spooked her but rubs her eyes, glancing to Jasper as he finally stirred after so long. "Yeah, I'm fine" answering his question with her cute smile "I hope my hair ends up looking good" she murmurs, letting to down from the bun. Shaking her hair out before running a hand through it to help settle and smooth it out. Now getting more excited at the moment of having something new and different.
-
Jasper watched as she let her hair down, she had beautiful hair, he wasn't sure if he wanted her to really change it but he knew she had to. she was leaving her old life and starting a new one and changing you appearance is the first step to do that. "I rented out Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills, you'll be buying everything and doing everything on that street," Jasper said watching her, wondering if she ever been to LA before. it was the most famous street with the most extravagant shops. he thought of some new sounds while they were in the air, he was excited to share it with Clara but he wasn't ready to tell her just yet. he wanted to first take care of this and later go into the studio here and do some sound plays with her.

VIXENS STORM
Clara tilts her head rather confused as to what this rodeo dive was, her father was wealthy but never took her anywhere. House, school, and work were her life. "Buying?" she questions "With what money? I mean what is it besides my hair I need to change?" she questions looking at Jasper then Charles. Leaving her horrid home life with two young guys that she barely knew already had her a bit uneasy though she trusted Jasper more than anyone. But she still had social obstacles and was raised to be independent, accepting help wasn't easy.
-
He rolled her eyes, he could tell she was going to be a pain about taking his money, "don't worry you can pay me back whenever, you'll be making a good amount of money soon," he said as he felt the plane land they waited a moment before the seat belt sign rang so they can get up. Charles put his laptop away and stood heading for the door. Jasper stood up and waited for Clara, "you need a new wardrobe too, you can't wear your normal clothes out and about when youre with me you need to dress the part of a song writer," he told her, excited. really he just wanted to go shopping with her, he thought girls love that stuff and he thought she needed a new everything to get rid of that terrible past with a bright new future ahead of her. He headed towards the door, "come on the limo is waiting," he said looking over his shoulders at her

VIXENS STORM
Clara could not hide the frown forming on her lips as he gaze casted to the side in thought. She was so use to her old life, her comfy clothes, she already had all that set. Sighing she got up after the boys following them trying to look like she was fine. All she was thinking of was about conversation she would have to endure between her hair being done to her wardrobe. What was she even expected to wear as a song writer? Better be comfortable and not too flashy or she would not wear it.
-
Jasper could tell something was on her mind, but he wasn't sure if she would answer truthfully or not. the limo was waiting outside of their plane, right on the track. Charles was already getting in, the driver holding the door open for them. Jasper getting in he sighed looking back at Clara, "tell me what's on your mind? you don't seem too happy at the moment, if you don't talk to me how will I know im doing something wrong?" he murmured looking down at his hands then back to her.

VIXENS STORM
Clara follows after pausing just outside the plane, amazed the limo was parked right on the track. Why be surprised? He is a star. She walks down, last into the limo. Settling into her seat she looks over to Jasper noticing her change in attitude. Ready to lie just to keep up appearance but she could not, how would he know if she was not honest. Taking a breath Clara let it out "What's on my mind?" chuckling some to relax herself some "What it not on my mind?' changing his question. Her gaze looks at him for a moment her eyes gave off she was frightened of something but were replaced with a filter she always wore when facing her demons of anxiety. "Just not good with interactions in public, I rarely go anywhere beside home, work, and school. I rarely actually went shopping unless online. So to put it all together, I'm nervous" shrugging her shoulders. For a song writer she was verbally not that well with words. "I'll be fine...I'll get over it" covering with a smile.
-
Jasper sighed he knew she wasn't say the whole truth and it bothered him. "there's nothing to be nervous about Charles and I will take care of you," he said placing a hand on her arm, his eyes shooting to Charles then back to her. Charles was typing away on his phone. "there's no one but a few sales people in the stores and you be seeing the stylist, she's great don't worry," he said rubbing her arm to try and comfort her. "I know change is scary but sometimes its a good thing, your life will change for the better." he said his smile wavering slightly. "sometimes even when that change can be bad it can lead to something good..." he trailed off his hand going to his necklace. he shook his head and his smile reappeared. he didn't want to think about that

VIXENS STORM
Clara looks to his touch on her arm following his look to Charles before he continued. She bit her lip to keep herself from wanting more of his touch. Shifting a little she nods "I do trust...you." she clarifies with a small smile. His mention of bad event leading to good outcome made her wonder seeing him touch a necklace she had always seen him wear. At first glace it was apart of his attire but now was it symbolic in some way? She tilts her head wanting to ask on it, his expression gave off otherwise she drops the topic from her mind. "How much farther until we actually can stand on ground for more than a minute?" she questions, changing subjects.
-
He smiled at her glad she trusted him, he was putting his trust in her and he was glad she was doing the same for him. he looked out the window seeing that they were coming up to the street, "were just about there," Charles said reaching into his bag and pulling out a hat and ray ban sunglasses. "here," he passed it to Jasper who put the glasses on and the hat and then placed his headphones over his ears. he then listed his hood up on top of that. "you're going to act like youre with me so if you don't mind walking next to me till I say its safe," Charles asked Clara, as the car came to a stop on the side walk of a busy street. though on the Rodeo Drive street there was a few cops and barrier blocking the public from going on that street. Jasper was about to get out but waited for the okay from Clara that she was ready to go. she didn't need a disguise just yet since word hadn't spread yet about him being here. they were safe

VIXENS STORM
Clara glancing outside as well once her gaze returned to the boys she looked very baffled to their changing of the smallest attire. She shifts feeling left out, wondering if she needed one but then guessed it was the reason they were here give or take, change her identity and also write Jasper some songs. Her gaze hardens some to Charles suggestion of her being next to him not liking him much at this time. She nods her okay with the plan ready to follow out with Charles. Though she did see a barricade, this street was busy guessing other stars or celebrities housed here at times too.
-
JASper saw the head nodding and walked out of the car, Charles waited a bit before following out the other side holding his hand out of Clara for her to take it. "lets go," he said not a fan of it either but knew it had to be done to protect Jasper. Jasper walked past the cops they knew who he was before hand. Charles then lead Clara passed the cops and into the empty street now, it was lines with designer shops and fancy restaurants and other high end things. Charles then signed and let go of her hand. "alright we're good," Charles said looking back seeing that we were far away from the cops. Jasper took his hood down and removed the gear. he smiled to her, "ready?" he asked wanting to take her to get her hair done.

VIXENS STORM
Clara climbs after Charles, pausing a moment to look up at his hand with a roll of her eyes she takes it. Following in his step past the cops, glad to let go of charles once he deemed it was safe. She crosses her arms, turning somewhat away to have a moment to collect herself. Hearing Jasper she turns to him and smiles, her gaze glancing around to see it actually was not that bad here. "Let get rollin!" she laughs walking up beside him "Just don't laugh when my hair is done, please I'm nervous enough about it" she admits half joking.
-
He was glad her mood seemed to change once she realized they were pretty much alone here. "I won't laugh im sure you'll look beautiful no matter what," he told her taking her hand and linking it through his arm so their arms were link together. Charles stood behind them shaking his head, he was more of a chaperone now, he would stay back and let them have their fun for now. Jasper lead her to a salon, and opened the door for her, there was only the stylist there, the store was empty other than that. "Jasper how are you!?" a man that had dyed his hair gray almost was thin and had fake blue eye contacts on. but he was rocking the look. he was also very much gay. "Hello, Benny, im doing fab and you?" Jasper greeted him in the same ton as Benny did. "I see you brought be some fresh meat," Benny said smiling at Clara, "yeah this is Clara she's going to be working with me from here on out, and I need you to do your magic," Jasper said looking at Clara and winking at her, "benny is one of the best there is he does stuff for Kim K and Jennifer Anderson, and a lot others," Jasper told her, wanting to make her comfortable

VIXENS STORM
Clara steps toward him when he takes her hand, linking it around his arm before leading her into the street. She looks all around until they came to the salon, really trying to settle any shaking that may occur. Even moved herself away from Jasper by a step as to not worry him. Looking at the man named Benny she doesn't judge rather enjoyed his look gave her a sense of freedom. But Jasper listing all clients of this man made her head tilts why does it matter that famous rich people like him doesn't mean he is the best just most liked or known. Still she smiles and waves "hello there" her hand absently taking a strand on her hair to play with as if saying goodbye. A cut would not kill her but she was rather use to long hair. "Just don't turn me into a toad" she giggles mentioning back to Jasper saying to work his magic.
-
"oh stop king, you're making me blush," benny giggled smiling at Jasper then looked at Clara playing with her hair. "honey I could make you bold and you would be gorgeous," Benny said leading her over to a chair so he could work on her. Charles then walkedd through the door, Benny turning to see Charles and his eyes shinned and his smile grew, "Charles!" he greeted running over to him and wrapping his arms around Charles neck and giving Charles a big kiss on the lips. Charles quickly pulled away from Benny. "Ben, I'm working," he scolded the stylist. Benny rolled his eyes, "always working," he grumbled as Charles went to sit in the waiting area. "any who back to Clara, what kind of look do you want?" Benny asked her, wanting to get her input too. Jasper looked over at Charles who was back on his phone. and shook his head. Yes Charles was gay as well. but no one could tell just by how he acted.
-
VIXENS STORM
Clara walks over with Benny to the chair, sitting down looking at herself in the mirror. She glances to the door seeing charles and pouts before running red to benny's greeting to the boy. She giggles "Well that's a greeting" looking over to Jasper for his reaction. But Benny returned his attention to her "Um I want to change my look, maybe the color with pink or purple, darker tones" she explains, playing with her hair still.
-
Jasper smiled at her comment, he leaned forward keeping his lips close to her ear, “Charles doesn’t do pda, if you ever want to get your way show him any affection even just a hug and he’ll do whatever you want cause it make him so uncomfortable,” jasper whispered to her quickly then quickly standing back before Benny could hear. He “Sure we can change the color a bit I like a nice purple it’ll go with your skin tone. What about the cut? Keep it long or cut it short?” He asked her wanting to work with her on it and do what she likes. Benny could tel she was fond of her hair and wanted to make sure she was happy
