Colors

Dilan went pale. "D-don't tell her! I'm not v-very used to being in... y-you know." He stuttered, turning red. He scratched the back of his head and sighed. "G'night." He walked out the door and ran smack dab into Sasha.

He turned even redder and walked off. "What's up with him?" Sasha asked, giving her friend a quizzical look. She shook her head and flopped onto the left bed.

Mercury smiled “wouldn’t dream of it bud” she called out after dilan , when Sasha asked what was up she smiled. “Just a small talk with dilan , nothing much talking about this girl he likes” she said thoughtfully

Sasha put on a straight face. Why did I even bother having feelings for him? She went into the private bathroom and changed into the clothes that Dilan's mother had given her and Mercury. A little while later, she curled into bed.

Little did she know, that Dilan was thinking about her this very second!

She curled up with Sasha on the bed “you mustn’t tell dilan I said this. He likes y....” she said as she felt herself losing energy quickly and grabbed a limb looking at it as it lost all color.

Sasha gasped, "Oh my goodness! Are you okay!?" She shrieked.

she blinked dazed and nodded “I think I’ll be ok” she said shivering

"Are you sure?" Sasha said, "I could get you water or we could go to the doc." She got up from the bed and headed towards the side table. Pouring the full jug of water into the cup, she handed it over to Mercury.

She took a sip of the water “I’m ok sasha it’s just the energy from the plant drained so it drained my energy. I’m used to it but that was way to much energy to drain” she said worried. “No don’t get the doctor I’m fine”

"Oh, okay." Sasha breathed. "I can understand, you know. My energy drains when I have vision." She nodded and laid down on the opposite bed; the one with the balcony, leaving Mercury on the other.

She nodded “yea it happens all the time , I just don’t get why there was so much energy drained and plants dropping and losing color” she said to her frowning slightly

Sasha sighed. "We'll figure it out tomorrow. We need to have some sleep."

She pulled up the covers right up to her chin and wished Mercury a good night.

She nodded and got under the covers of her bed and sighed softly trying to figure out was that what happened could have happened as she fell asleep

Ka-ka-doodle-dooo!!

Sasha shot up. She looked around, trying to figure out where she was. Then, she saw Mercury and it all clicked. She rubbed her eyes and stretched. She got off the bed and did some more stretching. A few minutes later, she looked out the balcony and saw the entire town resume their daily work from a whole night of sleep.

Children going off to school, parents going to work, horses neighing, chickens clucking and the smell of baked bread was already in the air!

Walking into the washroom, she changed into some clothes that she had bought with Dilan's money. She still had to pay him back.

Mercury woke up and got up looking around tiredly and sighed , she pulled her bag to her and got out her clothes putting them on quickly and walked out of the room quickly

Sasha came out of the washroom and noticed that Mercury wasn't there anymore. She guessed that she already went downstairs.
