===Peter===
"Peter," Lorelei's voice was quickly approaching, "I want to apologize for that last night. I'm sorry for yelling at you like that." She leans against my locker as I put my skateboard away.
I turn to her, "As long as you were ok there. I understand wanting to be alone. But I have to ask, why are you still there? I'm pretty sure that's illegal for your father to say things like that. Or at least child services can take you away." I look to her worried, gripping my books.
"Yeah, but where would I go? Most of my family is gone or can't take care of me or my brother. What if I get separated from my brother? I'm all he has now, Peter. I can't leave because I'm selfish and my dad treats me bad. I…" she pauses, in emotional pain, "I just have to pull through it."
I was amazed she would do that for her brother. She must really love him. My senses go off. "I have to go." I shove my books into my locker and run out the door.
"Peter!" she shouts, stopping me, "Please come back…and in one piece!" I run out the door, finding whatever was going to do this to interrupt such an important time.
===Lorelei===
I race home after school. My muscles aching, I was coughing so much. I knew what was happening, and I needed to get home now. My couch soon becomes hot, and small embers come out. This wasn't good; I was still out in public. Only a few more blocks till I got home.
My palms begun to burn, my head about to burst, it was a long painful experience I had gotten used to. I ran up my footsteps, digging my keys out of my pocket. My hands shook uncontrollably. I stumbled through the door; thank god no one was home right now. I ran up the stairs and into the bathroom, I didn't care about my clothes, I jumped into the shower and turned on the cold water. Heat rose to the surface of my skin and I burst with flames. I screamed as the overpowering flames surrounded my body, my eyes glowed and my hair stood up.
The shower soon put out all of the flames; I turned the nozzle to cooler water, my body cooled off. My clothes in burnt patches, I grabbed a towel next to me and stepped out of the shower. Turned off the shower and changed my clothes into pajamas. My throat hurt and I still coughed out embers.
I rested in bed but was woken by a knock on my door, "It's Peter." He opened the door and saw me in bed; "Did you get sick?" his face was sympathetic. He was adorable.
"Yeah, a bit." I wanted to chough, but held it in. He couldn't see this.
"Oh! Why don't you come back to my house, Aunt May is really good at making me better when I get sick." He smiles.
I nod my head and we both make our way to his house…on the other side of town.
"Aunt May!" Peter shouts as we walk in the door, "Lorelei is going to stay here because she's sick and no one is home to take care of her!" He quick shoves me up to his room. "Just, uhhhh… make yourself comfy…I guess." He points to his bed.
"Thanks." It takes me no time to adjust myself under the warm comforter and fluff the pillow to my head's needs. "I'm starting to feel better right now." I pull the blanket to my chin and turn so I'm facing Peter at his desk.
"How did you get sick anyways?" he moves to the foot of his bed, taking off his watch and setting it on the dresser.
"I don't know, I think it was going around my brother's school and I just got it somehow from him." That was a lie; it wasn't something you get from an elementary. But I really didn't know.
"Well, no offence, but you look horrible." He emphasizes the "horrible".
"Gee, thanks. Because every girl wants to hear that from a guy." I roll my eyes.
He smiles. "I just hope you'll be ok." He grabs my hand and laces his fingers through my own.
We look at each other for a second. I soon sat up. I wanted to kiss him, really. But Peter really deserves more than me.
Peter sits forward; I feel his breath close to my face. He was about to kiss me when he jerks back, "You're sick." He said quietly. I could feel that wasn't it though.
"I brought the perfect get well foods!" Aunt May bursts through the door. Both Peter and I release our hands. She sets a tray of multiple foods on my lap, soup, ice cream, tea, and some carrots.
"Thanks, Ms. Parker." I smile to her and start to eat my hot soup. I melted as the noodles slid down my throat.
She nods and walks out the door, closing it slowly on her way out.
"You weren't kidding, your Aunt is perfect at making me feel better." I smile and already have the bowl of soup half gone.
"Yeah." He sighs, "Aunt May is great." He pauses, "Oh! I have to grab something! I'll be right back." He runs out the door.
I sigh. Good that he's gone. I let out a huge cough and lots of embers come out of my mouth. I continue to cough, looking around the room at the different pictures. Some of the ones next to the bed were the best, or at least, they looked the most important. One of the embers get onto a photo and it catches on fire.
I panic, unpinning it from the wall. I wave it around for a bit, trying to think where it should go. I look at the soup. I dunk the photo in the soup. As I take it out, the pretty picture of Peter and the white-haired girl dripped in chicken noodle soup. I hear footsteps come up the stairs and shove the picture in my pocket.
"Science report." Peter walks in, holding up a paper.
I let out a sighing laugh.
===Peter===
I sat inside my poetry class the next day. All that was on my mind was that I almost kissed Lorelei yesterday. That one kiss would have brought her into a whole new world, it was close enough with Doc, and I don't even know how he found out about her.
"Alright class, sorry I'm late." Mr. Philips walks through the door, "But I have a new student to introduce to you, let us all welcome Holly Holloway." He points his hand to the door, and the most beautiful girl walks in.
She wore purple skinny jeans and a form-hugging tee shirt with a picture of a girl standing in the pouring rain. She had auburn hair and golden eyes. She had red lip-stick on and smiled brightly, "I'm Holly." She waved.
The class clapped and Flash whistled out loud. The class quieted and she walked close to me…and sat next to me.
Oh. My god. She sat next to me.
