Cynthia was confused. She had asked around, but when time came for the exam she did just fine. She had her head down on the table in the student council room. "You did good." Nathaniel tried to reassure her. "I don't know what your worrried about?"
Cynthia took a deep breath before replying with; "I'm mostly worried about Castiel, and Ken." Nathaniel smiled understandingly. "Don't worry they'll get over themselves soon." Nathaniel sat down next to me looking through a small stack of paperwork. "And thanks for the help earlier. " he added.
"No problem." She halfheartedly replied.
Nathaniel let out a tired sigh, and took out an exit slip. "Cynthia, you need to relax, go home and get some rest." He handed her the paper which she stared it in bewilderment.
"Won't you get in trouble?" She glanced at him sideways wondering if he was the one who had questionable mental healt.
"No, but dont worry about me." He stood up moving to a file cabinet. "Just take care of yourself.
"Thank you, and Nathaniel, Jade can be a really nice girl." I saw his ears turn pink as he looked away flustered. Cynthia genuinely smiled for the fisrt time in a while.
Cynthia walked out into the hallway.
"Cynthia" Sam pulled Lysander by the hand.
"Where are you going?" Ahe tilted her head to the side, and Cynthia dared to think she looked adorable.
"Home." Cynthia replied.
"Are you okay? You don't look too well." Lysander stared at her in concern. Cynthia smiled.
"Just take care of Sam." I replied. He smiled, and noddded. Sam was blushing furiously.
"Don't worry about her." Lysander assured. "Take care." The two walked off leaving me to kick uo my moter cycle, and speed off. She just rode around town letting the wind wrap around her. She noticed the dark clouds, and curesed as the droplets of water started to feel like needles hitting her back. She noticed a bakery, and slowly pulled into the parking lot. There was nothing out of the ordinary... considering it was decorated in a similar way to her aunt's house. The sing said "Candy Love" with a pink, and white cupcake hanging off the "E" of the love. Cynthia walked inside. It was empty, which wasn't surprising because of the rain. Cynthia observed the ornate cakes, bread, and chocolate in the glass case.
"Can I help ya darling?" The sourthern accet was thick. Cynthia turned to see a women with almoat an albino like appearance. Her white hair was tied up losely on her head, and long strands hanging out.
"Yes."
"Alright sweetie,just tell me what you want, or do you want your own design?" Cynthia glanced at her diffrent colored eyes. "Is it my eyes?" She tilted her head to the side.
"One of my friends has heterochromia, so I was curious. " she explained. The pink, and topaz orbs lit up as she laughed.
"I see honey, what can I get ya?" I glanced at the camo cupcake thinking of Kentin.
I thought for a moment. "I'd like to get something for my friends at school."
The woman smiled. "Thats sweet of you darling." She picked out the cupcakes I pointed out.
"Thank you. " I said as she passed me the box. She just smiled.
"It's noth'n darlin, my name is Mia, but you can call me Lyumia, and your always welcomed."
After parting Cynthia sighed of relief that the storm had subsided. Quickly pocketed the card that Lyumia had given her so she could find this place again.
When she got home Jade was waiting for her.
"Hello Jade." She greeted her sister. Her sister quickly stood up.
"Whatever you did, thanks." He sister smiled genuinely at her with blue eyes.
"Aw did you two confess?" I teased knowingly.
"Shut it before I decide to get you a boyfriend." Jade replied.
Cynthia laughed mischivously her amethyst eyes glowing. "I have volunteers!" She cried out as she rushed towards her room.
"Why you!" Jade shouted chasing her sister playfully.
Castiel stood behind the gym leaning against the wall smoking. He blew the smoke out watching it dissappear into the air. Kentin crossed his arms when he saw him. "What do you want?" Casteil snapped. He was in a terrible mood.
"I think this should be settled, for Cynthia's sake."
"Why?"
"Didn't you notice how bad she looked this morning. The bags under her eyes looked horrible. "
"So what do you suggest?" Castiel asked sighing in defeat. "
"... A compromise. "
An: greeting my readers, sorry for the long wait I'm finally getting everything together again.
