hey guys, so this is just a fan fic basically going off on: what if caine and connie met at coates and connie told him the truth? so yeah..i hope you enjoy this! :)
Caine's POV
I walked up to Nurse Temple's office. Diana was walking along my side, Drake was in our room. This was one of those rare times Diana was actually holding my hand, well arm, to be exact. It was more like steadying than holding. But still, its the thought that counts.
I got into another fight again. I got so mad, I clenched my fists and its as if the boy I was fighting began to levitate, and the madder I got, the higher he went. It was at that moment that I realized I had a power. Telekinesis. A pretty useful power, if I say so myself. After I dropped the boy, him not knowing what happened, or that it was me controlling him. Drake stepped in when he was off the ground and started pummeling him while Diana and I walked away. It felt good to be the three most powerful students at Coates Academy.
At lunch, I showed Diana my power. We then realized, that she too had a power. Her power was actually reading other peoples power levels, like a cellphone service bar. Her power is going to be very useful when we decided we need to expand our group. After lunch, we had our one class together, math. The teacher saw me limping a bit and holding my side, I did have to act a little to make it seem worthwhile, and decided to send me to the Nurses office. Diana offered to take me there, and so she took my arm to make it seem like she was steadying me and supporting me. Teachers at this school are so stupid sometimes.
We finally got to the nurse's office. "I guess you can go now" I said.
"How will you get back without me?" Diana asked, smirking. God, I love that smirk of hers.
"I'll find a way" I replied, giving her a smirk of my own.
She laughed, her evil, smooth, nice laugh. I loved that laugh. "I'll just tell him the Nurse told you to go back to your room and stay in bed".
"Sounds good. Why don't you drop by later, so we can talk about what happened today?" I asked.
"Yeah, sure, why not." she dropped her voice "Does Drake know?".
"No..I haven't told him yet. I don't know if I should yet.." I said.
"Don't tell him yet. We should find out how to control and use your power first before telling him, so if he tries anything..." she started trailing off.
"Yeah, ok, fine. I'll get him out of the room before you come. Does 5:00 sound good for you?" I asked.
"Yeah, five is fine. Taylor doesn't mind when I leave at all." she replied.
And with that, the love of my life walked away. I stared at her until I couldn't see her anymore.
Time to go in.
When I walked in, I saw Nurse Temple sit at her desk. She's supposed to be filling in for our Nurse, but I think she's going to take over her job soon enough.
She was looking at her papers when she started to say "Well hello dear, just sit down and fill out this form and I'll get right to you." , then she looked up, and gasped oh so quietly, I almost didn't catch her say, "Oh...my god. Could it be..?"
Connie's POV
I heard someone come in. I could tell it was a boy by the steps. Funny how I could even tell he was 14 without looking at him, his steps reminded me of Sam's. Wait...they were just like Sam's. He was walking in that quiet and sneaky fashion Sam walks in, but in a more calm and powerful way. I start to say the normal nurse phrase, because I'm still looking at the papers on my desk. The birth certificates. The student profiles. Searching for anyone with the name of David or Sam's birthday. When I look up, I can't help but gasp.
"Oh...my god. Could it be...?" I whisper.
It's him. It's David. It's my baby, my son, only now 14 years older than the last time I saw him. I finally found him. My other son. The one I loved so much but was forced to give him up in fear that I would kill him with my depression disorder.
He looks at me quizzingly. Almost like he's trying to read my mind, like he heard me. I hope thats not his power, I know he must have a power, and he's probably starting to develop it now, just like Sam.
"What's your name?" I ask him.
"Caine...Caine Soren." he replies, slowly and with caution.
Caine. What a beautiful name. I must say, it does suit him more than David ever would.
"Now tell me Caine, whats wrong? Are you hurt, are you not feeling well..? Whats the problem?" I ask.
"Got into a fight.."he mumbles. I sigh. I hope he's not a troublemaker.
"Are you hurt badly? Where does it hurt and do you have any bruises or anything?" I ask.
He doesn't say a word. He just takes his shirt off.
I sharply breathe in. He's sporting a lot of bruises on his chest and arms.
"Oh dear" I say.
I get up and get a bunch of ice packs for him. I lay them on his chest and arms.
He sharply intakes his breath, "Thanks" he says.
Well at least he has manners, and with that I smile.
I go back to my seat and take a look at him. I guess its time to compare him to myself and Sam.
Well he definitely has my dark eyes and dark hair. He also has my nose. I sigh, he's still as beautiful as he was when he was a baby.
Now I knew he and Sam were fraternal, but their differences were drastic. And I guess I have to assume their personalities were too, because Caine must've been sent here for a reason, not to mention the fight he got into today.
Caine was a lot paler than Sam, who was very tan, but the paleness really suited him and complemented his hair and face. He was also pale when he was a baby. Sam had light blue eyes, but Caine has very dark eyes, but if you look very closely, you would realize that his eyes are a very dark shade of blue. Sam had dirty blonde hair, Caine had very dark hair, it looked black. Their bodies were a bit similar. They were the same height, and were built the same strong way, but it seemed that Caine might have more muscle than Sam.
Once again I pondered what his powers may be.
Caine's POV
The ice packs were very cold against my skin.
I pretended not to see the smile spread across Nurse Temple's face. I also pretended to not see her examine me, and stare at me closely when she thought I wasn't paying attention. I took the time to think myself. Should I ask her if I could stay in my room for the rest of the day to rest? I tried to ignore the other questions popping into my mind, like the telekinesis thing, or telepathy (I have been feeling like I could feel someones thoughts and feelings, and as if they could feel mine too, but I don't know who, what, or anything), or if she knew anything about my family. The fact that her hair and eyes were very similar to mine didn't help, or that she was staring at my face as if thinking about the same thing.
"Nurse Temple..?" I slowly started.
That seemed to snap her out of her thoughts too. "Yes Caine?" she asked.
"Um..I was wondering if I could get out of class for the rest of the day to go back to my room and rest..?" I asked.
"Oh of course Caine. I don't want you to get any more hurt than you already are. I'll write a note to your teachers.", she took a short while to continue, but then she started to say, "Is there anything else bothering you Caine? You know, I'm not the therapist or anything, even though I'd probably do a much better job of it than she does, but if theres anything you want or need to talk about, Im here." she said.
She's so kind..I almost forgot about my thoughts of her being my birth mother. She can't possibly be that nice and be MY mother. I'm horrible. Even my parents don't want me. Unless ... they're not my parents.
"Actually Nurse Temple..I would like to take you up on that offer" I replied.
She smiled that kind smile, "Pefect, Caine. But please, you can call me Connie.".
"When can I come again to talk?" I asked.
"Is tomorrow after your last class good?" she asked.
"Perfect." I said.
I reached out to take her hand and to shake it.
"Now I think I'll be on my way, Connie." I smiled coldly and briskly.
I started to slide my shirt back on.
"Wait Caine, before you go.." she started.
"Yes?" I asked, the curiosity getting the better of me.
"Take these fresh new icepacks." she smiled. "Oh, and that shade of dark blue in your eyes really complements you"
"Thanks Nurse." I replied with another cold smile, and with that I left her room, a million questions bursting in my mind.
