Fabian Prewett was a nice boy. He was smart, got good grades and seemed to be perfect boyfriend material. When he approached her and asked her on a date she sneered at him.

"No." Her voice flat and cold.

"I know you've been hurt before but—"

"I said no." Elanora looked down her nose and the boy, and despite her being shorted than him, she managed to make him cower. "Who would want to go out with you?"

Fabian dashed away and Elanora felt powerful and strong. She'd just turned down a boy, and she had all the power. It felt great.

"You can't get jealous of every woman that I talk to!"

Elanora glanced over and saw Avery trying to brush off another girl. She sneered at the lot of them and disappeared from the common room. Relationships were not worth it.
