NEW YORK BLOOMS radiantly as the sun begins to rise over the city. While the noise of passing traffic was far from quiet at night, it was terribly loud in the mornings. Kylie-Rose tossed and turned, trying different positions to drown out the noise. She finds a comfortable sport, where New York City sounds like the distance buzz of a white noise machine. However, Kylie's piece is interrupted by the sudden flicking of the hallway lights and her brothers' annoying humming.
The brunette groans loudly and rolls out of bed. Her long brown hair was tangled and it was obvious she had just gotten up. She shielded her eyes from the very bright yellow light of the hallway as she made her way to the bathroom. The door was open when she made it to the end of the hall and her older brother had just finished brushing his teeth. He sees her as he turns to exit and pulls her into a hug.
"Mornin' Sleepy head." He says
"Good morning Casey." She grumbles into his embrace.
He chuckles before pulling away.
"Alright grouchy, you brush your teeth and I'll make breakfast before I head to work."
She grumbles in response, but heads into the bathroom and closes the door. Casey shakes his head amused before heading the opposite way towards the kitchen.
Not long later, Kylie can smell the bacon and eggs as she steps out of the shower. She calmly dries her hair and wraps the towel around her before stepping into the hallway.
"Don't come down here Casey! I took a shower!" She yelled to her brother
"Good you were starting to stink!" He yells back
"Va te faire enculer!"
"What?!"
Kylie responds with slamming her bedroom door. She rolls her eyes as she hears him laugh and drops her towels before heading to her closet. She sighs happily as she looks through her color coordinated closet.
She instantly heads towards the tans and picks a crop knitted sweater. She then turns her attention to the other need of the closet where her pants hang according. She finds her favorite pair, a greyish denim rolled above her ankles. She then turns to the shelving and grabs a pair of white ankle socks and bends down to grab her white Air-Forces. As she gets dressed she turns to her jewelry. She grabs her golden locket and medium hoop earrings (gold as well) and gently puts them on.
She feels more confident as she steps out into the hallway. She makes her way happily to the kitchen, where she finds her brother dressed in a white apron happily flipping pancakes on the stove.
Kylie giggles, which catches his attention. He smiles softly at her, until he looks at her top.
"Go change."
Kylie gives him a sideways look, before following his gaze to her cropped sweater.
"Oh hush you. What I'm wearing is fine!"
Casey shakes his head, but drops the matter. Kylie lets out a huff of disbelief before taking a seat at the small island. Casey gives her a warm smile before sliding her a plate of pancakes, bacon, eggs and toast with a glass of orange juice. She happily takes it and turns to her big brother, who was finishing making his plate. He makes his way around the island and takes a seat next to her. She waits for him to sit down before taking the first bite.
She smiles at her brother, letting him know she was enjoying the meal. They eat in a comfortable silence and once finished Kylie takes their plates to the kitchen to wash. As Casey finishs whipping the island he looks down at his watch and then back up to Kylie.
"Okay kid, I gotta go. Have a good day, get to class on time."
Kylie racks the last pan before walking towards him. The two embrace and Casey places a brother kiss to her temple.
"Be careful, please Kylie. You know my extension, right?"
Kylie looks up at him and nods
"I solemnly swear that I will stay out of danger today." Kylie says raise her right hand.
Casey chuckles and nods before giving her one last hug.
"Okay, love you pipsqueak. See you tonight."
"See you tonight."
Casey grabs his keys before heading to the door, however he stops and turns around as Kylie goes back to cleaning the kitchen.
"Hey Rose?"
She turns back to him with a hum.
"Have a great day at school."
She smiles brightly at him as he closes the door. She turns back to her task at hand, and it doesn't take her long too completely finish the kitchen. She washes her hands thoroughly, before heading back to her room.
She turns over to her night stand as she enters the room, her alarm clock reading, 6:48am. She still had over 2 hours before her first class.
Kylie looked over her neat and organized room. She was quite the minimalist, only keep a small number of items for memories. Amoung those small numbers were the musical instruments she had been gifted before she left Notre Dame. The headmistress thought it best that she takes with her, her musical instruments that had helped her when she had first arrived in France.
Neatly displayed in the right-hand corner of her room were her Violin, Viola, Piano, Electric Guitar and Cello. She smiled happily before deciding to spend her time doing what she enjoyed: playing her instruments. She walked over to the collection, she decided with her Violin; the first instrument she had ever received.
It had been a gift from her and Casey's grandmother; who was delighted to hear that one of her grandchildren were interested in instruments.
Kylie then set up her music stand and music book, before turning to her favorite song to play. She carefully took the Rosewood Violin out of its case before resting it along her shoulders beforeΒ grabing the bow. She then let's muscle memory take the lead as she follows the music along the sheet.
What About Us by Duomo
As she finishes the song, she feels calm and more relaxed. She lets the sweat cool from her forehead as she leans her head back, gaping the sunlight. She smiled at the traffic below her brother's apartment for the first time since she had moved back to America and neatly put away the violin.
She looked down at the city and then up to the sky scrappers and smiled to herself.
'It's going to be a good day.'
ΛΛΒ°β’*ββ·
It's nearly 5pm when Kylie returns to the apartment. After a full day of school, she stopped by a cute coffee shop on the way home to study and unwind a little before heading home. As she closes the front door behind her, she hangs her keys on the key rack, the one Casey refuses to use, and locks the door behind her. She then heads straight for the shower.
After a brisk and refreshing shower she steps into the hallway, a towel wrapped around her naked form. She makes her way to her bedroom and pulls out a pair of sweats and a oversized t-shirt before slipping back into the kitchen to start dinner.
An hour later, an amazing Chicken Alfredo is prepared with seasoned garlic bread andΒ a variety of vegetables. And as if on cue, Kylie listens to the door unlock and in stolls Casey, humming a tune. Kyle leans across the counter, listening to her brother; intrigued.
"What's got you so happy?" She asked playfully
Casey shot her his winning grin before running his hands through hair.
"Oh nothing much, just getting to transport the Shredder to his home away from home."
An exciting look spreads across Kylie's face as she makes her way of to her brother.
"No freaking way! Congratulations Casey!"
"This is it Kylie! My break! I'm going to prove that I'm dedicated and willing and the Academy will have to accept me!"
Kylie wraps her arms around her brother's neck
"I'm so proud of you Casey! Mom and Dad would be too."
Casey looks down to her knowingly, but smiles none the less.
"Thanks kid. What smell's so good?"
I am so proud of myself for completing this! I know my follow through with a ton of these books have been absolutely terrible, but I'm trying to be better about it.
Anyways here's the rest of Kylie's room:
