Cassie snorted. "No, really? An outdoorsy farm?" She teased sarcastically. "We live by a forest. I used to climb trees a lot."
Cassie snorted. "No, really? An outdoorsy farm?" She teased sarcastically. "We live by a forest. I used to climb trees a lot."
“Awesome. I wish I lived by a forest. It’s outdoorsy and a lot less farm work. That stuff can get nasty. And when I make mom mad I have to clean up the cow manure. You don’t wanna hear about that. But hey, us red heads guy fiery tempers.” Alpha stopped as thy finally reached their destination.
Cassie shrugged. "I used to get lost a lot and I think I spent the night in the woods once. Not on purpose, of course. But, eh, stuff happens, I guess."
Alpha nodded, “Stuff happens indeed. But at least no Lunar Queen is trying to take over the world.”
Cassie snorted. "Yet. Who knows, maybe Cinder's going to have some new traumatic event that leads to her deciding to take over the world. It happens, you never know."
Alpha let out a high pitched giggle before covering her mouth and turning as red as her hair. “Oh my stars. Do you think anyone else heard that. I hate my laugh. It’s so weird.” She rubbed her hands over her face to hide the obvious redness while stifling a moan.
Cassie scoffed. "Oh, honey, trust me, your laugh is one of the least weird things about you," she assured the girl.
Alpha rolled her eyes. “Geez thanks. What else is new.” Her smile was small but true for a second before she turned her head away.
"It's ok, though, you're less weird than I am," Cassie said, shrugging. "So… almost-semi-normal."
“Are you kidding me? Your so normal! I’m part wolf. That’s not normal. Your pretty and normal and look at me- I’m a mess!”
Aytigin opened the door to his room and walked inside, "welcome."
Cassie stared at her for a moment, giving a nod of thanks to Aytigin as she walked into his room. "Other than your ADHD and 'insane' red hair, as you think it is, there's nothing differentiating you from other people. So you're got long nails and longer teeth than most humans. You aren't 'weird,' you're interesting. There's a huge difference. People just never understand me."
Alpha gave Cassie another smile, “maybe weird is a good thing, because really, what is normal? Ya know?” Alpha walked over to the bed and sat down on its plush mattress.
Cassie laughed quietly. "I didn't realize you were a philosopher," she commented drily.
Alpha laughed back “I’ve got layers.” Then came forth an awkward silence. Why is she so pretty? She’s older than you. You can’t have a crush on her. You just became friends! You just met! You just stopped arguing! Straighten up Alpha. But you aren’t straight! Alphas mind could argue back and forth all day.
"Don't we all?" She questioned rhetorically. After a moment of not knowing what to say, Cassie pulled out her port again. Stars, why did she have to be so awkward? But literally everyone who ever existed seemed to be more attractive than her, and she couldn't help but feel awkward.
Cassie snorted. "Yet. Who knows, maybe Cinder's going to have some new traumatic event that leads to her deciding to take over the world. It happens, you never know."
Karina had come back inside shortly after Alpha had. The two girls seemed to have been happy and in a better mood. It was then that she overheard a piece of their conversation. They had moved on from their own families and onto gossipping about hers. Even if it was just a moment, it infuriated the princess. They joked about her mother wanting to take over the world should something bad enough happen. They forgot that she was the one oppressed for most of her life being a cyborg. She knew how bad that was. She freed her people from Levanna. There was an easy opening for her to take and continue the throne. But she didn't. Cinder changed the monarchy into a well functioning government with elected officials and meetings! It was the reason Karina never felt she measured up. But the two had made fun of her mother. After she had helped them. As they walked away with the Aytigin boy, Karina decided not to follow. Seating herself on the floor again, there was only one more person from the group in the room with her. What was his name though…?
Alpha let her hair fall in front of her face as she twisted the delicate ring on her right pointer finger, it’s fake emerald glimmering brightly against the thin fake gold band. She suddenly sat up. “How about we play a game?”
(Heck, I'm sorry, I'm on vacation and my parents are very reluctant to let me leech their internet :P)
Cassie raised an eyebrow. "What kind of game exactly? And be aware that I will punch you if you say spin the bottle," she warned with a teasing smile.
(Same girl. It’s either “do your homework, EBay! (My nickname)” or no service) Alpha pretended to look hurt. “No spin the bottle? Are you afraid to kiss moi?” She finished her words with a laugh when she spoke in hey native French. “Hmmm. I was hoping you had an idea. Oh! What about 2 truths and a lie? That used to be my favorite game.”
(Sup. Anyone around?)
(I am kinda)
(Okok I should be back to normal now, so… hi? Sorry for being gone so long!)
Cassie laughed, shaking her head. "We really are middle schoolers now. Okay, I'm fine with that, but you have to go first."
(no it's okay)
“I haven’t got any better ideas. Ummm. Ok. Let’s see… I had a secret pet mouse once. I have broken six bones. I’m petrified of spiders.” Alpha inwardly sighed in relief as she said everything with a straight face. “Which is a lie?”
