*Sjin is joining in this chapter so yeah read it and find out more*
Zoey's P.O.V:
It was a few weeks since the start of school and Rythian hadn't come back, Earth was gone as well. Lom had told me that they were taking a mini holiday at the beginning of term. She told me that they often did this. I got up from my desk it was the last lesson of the day and as the bell went I decided to go get a drink. I got distracted by something on the opposite wall from me as I left the class. I stood slightly in front of the wall behind me looking at the text on the opposite wall. It was getting later and the corridors were empty by now.
Sjin's P.O.V:
I had recently joined this school. I only just joined and I was on my way back to my flat. I realised that to fit in I needed to be a bit of a bully then people would see me as tough and a good man. I decided that round this corner I would push over the first person I saw. As I turned the corner I saw a girl standing in the hallway staring intently at the wall in front of her, I smiled she didn't look like a mage so I wouldn't get into any trouble for it. She looked weak enough not to fight back. As I passed in front of her I pushed her down onto the floor heavily and she let out a loud "Hey!" and I smirked and continued walking. I rounded the corner and saw a man with a purple mask on the lower half of his face "Well Hello there… Why did you push that girl over?" He asked me and I knew I was screwed I tried to go around him but without moving he was in front of me "Zoey are you ok?" his eyes did not stray from mine as the girl replied "Couldn't be better"
"I'll meet you in the Mage room ok?" the boy asked still looking down at me. I heard footsteps run off down the corridor. "Technically, school just ended and technically the teachers can't tell us off when we are out of school" he told me and I gulped knowing I had messed with the wrong people "Earth" he called and a girl popped up beside him "Show him what you've got" the boy told her and she nodded and a purple ring of flames surrounded us. "Hey Rythian leave him alone" A man came up from behind me and gestured to the boy in front of me "Sips I don't let people off so easily" came the boys reply "Fair enough but seriously man he's new" the man who I presume was Sips replied.
"Earth" Rythian shared a look with the girl and they lifted their hands "Send them back to where they came from" he muttered darkly and suddenly we were hovering above the ground. Then we flew through the door and up into the sky then plummeted to the ground our fall was slowed and we landed gently. "That is for messing with my friend" Rythian's voice came into my ear but he wasn't there.
Zoey's P.O.V:
I couldn't believe it he was back, Rythian was back! I went into the mage room and sat down the door opened and shut. Rythian walked in and I leaped up and ran and wrapped my arms round him "I missed you" I cried into his chest and he tightened his grip on me "I did too Zoey" he told me and I pulled back from his chest but didn't let my arms drop "Then why didn't you come back sooner" I asked tears still falling from my eyes "I couldn't it drove me insane but as much as I wanted to come back me and Earth had to see our family, as much as I told them I had to come back they protested and told me that they hadn't spoken to us properly. Being away from you made me ill I went pale and didn't get any sleep. We managed to get away today and I can't be happier to see you" He smiled down at me and I collapsed into his chest again. "Never leave again" I told him and his smile faded "I can't promise that" he told me and I decided not to question and just enjoy being in his arms. A while later we walked off back to our flats side by side "See you later friend" he smiled at me and he turned to leave "Yeah friend" I muttered "What was that?" he asked turning to me pausing by the entrance to his flat "Nothing" I replied with a bright smile and he returned it and opened the door to his flat. I went inside my flat as well.
"Zoey where the hells were you it's getting late" Lomadia exclaimed as I shut the door behind me "I was with Rythian" I replied and she squealed "Oh mi gosh he came back, and you spent the evening with him" she ran over to me "Lom we are just friends" I told her sternly and she sighed "You are hopeless Zoey" she told me as we went up the stairs to bed. I sighed "what is it?" she asked and I looked at her "Every time he says friends I just wish we were more I think I really do love him Lom but what do I do?" I asked her and she hugged me "Wait it out, I'm sure he likes you too, but he's back now, you can spend your time getting to know him." She smiled and we went into our separate bedrooms and I went to bed.
*OOOh Zoey wants to be more than friends. Find out next time what happens.*
