Sitting and Thinking.

Randy sat under a small willow tree, the wind buffeting his fluffy dark orange hair. He wondered what had become of Reed. Randy hadn't talked to her since they came to the academy. When he was about to walk up to her once, she heard her talking in a oh-so-sweet voice and the voice of that stupido Kody. Randy sighed and drew his legs closer to him.

Payton was walking through the courtyard when she saw Randy sitting by himself. "Hi Randy," she greeted, wanting to start a conversation.

"Hey Payton." Randy said, no emotion showing in his voice. It was bland, like his hair and eyes.

Payton walked over and sat down next to Randy. "So, what's up?" she asked.

"Nothing." A total lie. Randy kept his green gaze fixed on his black tennis shoes.

"'Nothing.' That is, by far, the best way to kill a conversation," she said jokingly. "C'mon, give me a real answer," Payton said, lightly elbowing Randy in the ribs.

"Thinkin' about Reed." he mumbled.

"Reed. That's your sister, right?" Payton asked, looking at Randy with curiosity.

"Yeah. I hardly ever see her anymore." Randy told her quietly. "Now you're my only friend."

"Hmm," Payton sighed and leaned back against the tree. On the inside, she really was flattered by him saying she was his only friend. "Maybe she's just busy with school and stuff, and new friends. You shouldn't take it personally. And if you want to see then just go see her. There's nothing stopping you."

"I try, but she's always with someone..." Randy muttered. Or that weirdo, Kody is near there.

"So? You can still hang out with her and whoever she's with. You need to be more social," Payton said.

"What if they beat me up?" Randy asked Payton. "People did that to me at home because of my power."

"Everyone here has a power. They're not going to beat you up," Payton reassured him with a smile. "Besides, if they haven't beat up your sister, who has the same power, they're not gonna beat up you."

"Well, I'm not as cool as Reed. And my power is based on emotions." Randy said sadly, hair turning slightly blue.

"You're making this a bigger deal than it is," Payton said sternly, getting a little frustrated with his gloomy mood. "Don't be so down on yourself. I'm sure people will like you for who you are," she said.

"You wouldn't have said that if you were there!" Randy snapped. His eyes flared. "This world isn't rainbows and magic!"

When and where is there? Payton asked inwardly, but she didn't say it out loud. "I never said it was, but sometimes you act like it's next to Hell," Payton replied calmly.

"It is a living hell!" Randy glared at Payton. "You may have had the good life, but not me."

"What do you mean?" Payton asked curiously.
