The Ring.


Jane is 18 and lives in New York. She works in a small art café, filled with art and sculptures. Jane loved to paint and draw, one day she lost her inspiration so she decided to travel around the world with just her paint and art and some money. But first she needed money. So she decided to go to her mom. “But mom I just need money that’s all I’m asking, please?” “I’ll see what I can do but you better take good care of this money.” “Oh mom, thank you so much!” Her mom left the room and came back with a ring. “This ring cost more than a million dollars, you better take good care of this you can take it and exchange it for money.”
“Thanks mom! I’ll call you everyday if I can.” She gave her mom a kiss and left. She then exchanged the ring for money and packed her paints, brushes and art in a bag and left to buy a plane ticket. “That will be 578 dollars please.” Jane handed the money and took her ticket when she stepped inside the plane and sat down she took out her art journal and drew what she saw outside. “Hello, my name is chase.” She turned around and saw a young looking guy who looked about the same age as Jane. He had a camera with him and a suit case, his hand was held out for her to shake. She shook his hand and said, “Hi, my name is Jane you are a photographer?” “Yes, that is why I’m coming to France.” He sat down and turned on his camera and said, “You draw?” she looked down and saw her journal open to a page with a drawing half finished. “Yes, I love to paint and draw. I can draw you if you would be okay with that.” “no problem.” She took out some paint and turned to a clear page as chase was putting his suitcase away. “Just relax and I’ll tell you when I’m done.” 5 minutes passed and Jane finished. “Here you go all done.” “It perfect you are really good.” “Thank you.” “So where do you work?” she thought about it and knew she didn’t want to say she is poor and works at a café and lives with her mom. So instead she said, “I work in an art museum and live in a house in Manhattan.” “I’d like to visit you sometime. Oh and I work as a photographer for models.” Jane almost fell off her seat when she heard a young guy like herself working as a photographer for models. “May I take some photos of you?” “Well I’m not like the models you take.” “Well you sure are like one.” He took pictures as Jane posed for camera then they talked a little more and shared some laughs. Then a girl their age came and sat down next to chase and said, “Chase who is this.” She said in a jealous voice. “Oh Kelly this is one of my new friends Jane.” “Jane this is my friend from work Kelly.” Jane was too busy thinking about the word friend and how great it made her feels. But she quickly said, “Hello, nice to meet you.” Jane held out her hand but Kelly just turned around and took out her phone. “I’m sorry she can be a little like that.” “It’s alright.” The whole plane ride chase and Jane talked while Kelly talked on her phone all the time laughing and saying, “He did? Really? Omg! No way?” when the plane landed Kelly, Chase and Jade got off and walked to the bus. “So where are you staying?” chase asked. “I’m not sure yet.” “Well you can stay with us.” When Kelly heard that she dropped her phone and yelled, “WHAT!! HER STAY WITH US???” when Chase heard her say that he told her to be quiet and said yes. Jane was so happy to hear chase say that but she quickly replied “it’s ok I can find a nice hotel to stay at. But here is my email. Hope to meet again.” Then Jane left before chase can reply. It took Jane a while to look for a hotel but then she found one and entered her room. She found a phone and called her mom. “Hey, mom I landed in Italy, I met a really nice guy my age his name is chase. He is really cute. But he has a mean friend who likes him. And thank you for the ring.” “That’s great maybe you can meet him again one time without her.” “I will, I love you.” “Bye hon, call you later.” “Bye mom.” She stood up and went outside she went on a bridge and took out her art journal and started to paint.

The lake.




“Jane is that you?” she turned around and saw chase. “I couldn’t see you well behind that mime.” They both looked at the mime who pretended to someone was slapping him. They laughed and then Jane stood up. “I was drawing the lake.” Chase walked near her. “Yes the lake very pretty.” They walked off the bridge and toward the water. “Want to take a dip.” Jade said. “A dip?” “Yes a dip.” Then she pushed chase in the water. He swam up and started laughing then Jane laughed to. Then chase took her by the leg and pulled her in. She swam up the surface and started laughing harder. Then a police officer came and yelled at them in Italian. They laughed and came out of the water running as far as they could then they both fell to the ground laughing. They stopped when they saw Kelly. Chase stood up and so did Jane. “What are you doing here? You are supposed to be at the photo shoot.” Chase looked at his watch and said. “Oh no, I’m late I got to go. See you later.” He gave her a kiss on the cheek and left. Jane was filling up with joy, until Kelly said, “He’s mine and he likes me only, and stay away from him.” Jane getting mad said, “No he doesn’t he likes me and me only except for his family, but you know what I mean!” Kelly marched away and left in the fog. Jane looked in the sky and saw the clouds turn grey the sun faded away and a light drizzle came. She walked to her hotel taking her journal and paint with her. She took a shower and dried herself off.When she put her clothes on her stomach growled so she decided to go to a café near to grab a quick snack. Finding a café was really easy and quick for Jane.
She was drinking tea and looking out the window. She was really bored then she remember she bang her pencil and journal. So she took it out and started to draw the pretty starry night. Then she went back to her hotel and fell asleep. The next morning she went around Venice painting and drawing but she didn’t feel any inspiration so she decided to go somewhere else and that was Paris. She picked Paris because it was beautiful and chase was going there next. “It’s really great that you’re coming with us.” Chase said while putting his suitcase under his seat.

Kelly and chase

.

Kelly, Jane and chase were all in their seats and chase offered for Jane to be in the photo shoot there shooting. When they got off Jane sat in the grass and started to draw while chase was taking pictures of her and Kelly was complaining. They went to the photo shoot and Jane changed in her photo shoot clothes and makeup she was supposed to be a goddess. After they finished they went to eat and then went to their hotel. Jane went to wash her hair. And chase was with Kelly, “Kelly why don’t you try to be nicer to Jane.” “I am nice to her.” “Why don’t you hangout with her tomorrow?” “Me? No way!” “Come on for me?” when Jane stepped out she put on her clothes and came out of the shower. Kelly kissed chase and Jane opened her eyes. “Huh?” Jane looked at them both and took her paints, art and journal and ran out crying. “Wait, Jane she kissed me.” Chase pushed Kelly out of the way and ran to Jane. Jane said goodbye and ran out. Jane was to far away for her to hear chase say, “Jane, I love you.” She wiped her tears and went inside another hotel, she called her mom and told her everything. She then went outside and started to draw, but she still had no inspiration and bought a plane ticket to Greece.

Greek boys!



When Jane landed she decided to forget about chase and Kelly. Her mind was totally cleared when she saw Greek boys. They were all over her. She saw one Greek boy who wasn’t all over her but really liked her. His name was Adonis and he invited her for dinner. Even though Adonis made her laugh and smile, chase was the only one who made her laugh till it hurts and smile till her cheeks hurt. But chase wasn’t here. Adonis was, they sat down and ordered what to eat. Adonis was an artist too. After they ate they went outside in the grass to draw the sunset. “It’s very beautiful.” Jane said while putting her drawing down to watch the sunset. Adonis knew English and replied “yes, very just like you.” Jane blushed, but no matter how much she like Adonis she knew chase was perfect for her. So she got up and gave Adonis a kiss. “I have to go.” “Why so early?” “I’m sorry Adonis I’m in love with someone else.” “I understand.” “You do?” “no.” Adonis gave Jane a big kiss and in return Jane slapped him. “I told you I can’t.” Jane left and sent chase a email saying sorry and for him to meet her in England. She bought a plane ticket and went to her hotel were chase was supposed to be. She waited and waited but Chase didn’t come with tears down her cheek she looked down and saw her art journal and a pencil.

Drawing on England.



It’s been a while since Jane drew, and that’s why she came her. So she went to a café that she thought was the most prettiest and she drew it. She looked at it for a while and then gave it to the owner of the café who hung it up on the wall. She then looked at it for hours while drinking coffee until she heard someone calling her name. She walked out of the café and saw chase. She ran up to him and hugged him. “Jane, I’m so sorry she kis-.” Before he can say anything else Jane kissed him. Stars started to appear they both sat down and Jane drew the sky and the buildings towering over them. As his arm was around her and they were laying down watching the sky. She got up and went toward a building it had a sign near it that said welcome to England she took out a pen and started drawing on the sign. “What are you doing?” “You’ll see.” When she finished she showed chase. She drew a starry sky with building and chase and her kissing. “It’s beautiful.” He took her hand and they walked to the airport. “So did you get any inspiration yet?” “Nope, I think the inspiration was back
