The young black-haired boy silently stared at the flower. He tried to not think about his predicament and instead dove into a memory.
A young girl with long, black hair was playing with a girl with short white hair. They sang and danced, laughed and joked, and collapsed onto soft grass.
"June! My mother's making a meat pie! You should come over and eat with us!" said the girl with frost colored hair.
"Are you sure it's alright?" replied the other, her different colored eyes glittering with concern.
"Of course, silly! Mom and I love having you over! It's not the same without you. And besides, you love meat pie, right?"
June laughed and gave in. The two fell into a comfortable silence, holding hands and watching the clouds pass overhead. After some time, June looked over at the other.
"Hey, Ellie-"
"-I love you." the boy whispered.
Elyon Warvant was trembling with excitement and anxiety. She clenched her acceptance letter in her hand as her train came to a stop at the Gedonlune station.
"Hey! watch it! You're suffocating me here!" the letter grumbled.
"Ah! I'm sorry, I guess I'm just nervous. I'll be more careful, I promise." she said as she quickly released it.
Elyon stared out the window. She had wanted to be a wizardess, like her mother before her, although, not quite the same type. She began daydreaming about a future as a beast tamer, an idea her mother had constantly teased her for.
"Oh, my sweet snowflake, don't you want a more adventurous career? Don't you want to travel, or explore? Invent or create? Why pick something so... boring?"
Elyon chuckled as she remembered her mother's complaints and jokes. In spite of her aversion, towards the idea, the woman supported her daughter's wishes, and helped her to the best of her extent. Elyon began playing with the curls of her long silver hair, when the train let out a loud whistle and she jumped. She snatched up her old bag, took a deep breath, and with her letter leading the way, she stepped off the train and into destiny.
Author's Note:
So, this is my first fan fiction, about none other than Joel Crawford! I hope you're at least interested. I would love some reviews and critiques on how I can make the story (more?) interesting. I plan to follow Joel's route to at least some degree, but I am changing the MC's own backstory.
