Mount Olympus [2]

Nic

I flash a smile, Just think of it being lighter and it will be. No light switch. Mental command.

I glance at Jace and shake my head, grabbing his hand and dragging him out of the house.

"Which way?" I ask.

He points in one direction and I try to look less like a drunken sailor as I walk in heels and more like a professional.

Rayah

Uh...I think you should take the heels off, Nic. And where are we going? I want to know! Pllleaasseee! I Beg, trying to turn the mental light on.

Nic

I stop, throwing the heels in Jace's arms before continuing to walk.

"So weird," he mutters.

We're going to the ceremony. Now...please tell me you at least know what the speech has to be on.

Rayah

I sigh mentally, Graduation. What we've been going through in the war and everything. But just a warning...there's a guy named Trevor there, he has to do the speech with me. Ignore him as much as you can. He annoys me.

Nic

Oh, so I just have to follow what he says then. Right, I can do that, I nod slightly, And....can I light him on fire? I've always wanted to try that.

Rayah

I sigh, No, Nic. But if you want you can throw a fireball somewhere right now. We'll get kicked out if we use our powers there.

Nic

I pout, It's no fun unless someone gets...

I smirk and look at Jace, concentrating fire in the hand he's holding.

Rayah

I roll my eyes mentally, Fine. Burn Jace. Just remember he knows it's you and not me.

Nic

Wow...you just gave me permission to burn your boyfriend, I shake my head, I'm so making sure he knows that later.

Jace yanks his hand away and swears, shaking it in the air.

"Nic, freaking behave," he growls, glaring at me, "Stop the sh*t."

Rayah

You wanted to. And If he knows that later then I am gonna burn you're f*cking a*s and make sure Jackie never calls you again. Just think about that. I smirk.

Nic

I glare at her mentally, or try to, That's so freaking unfair. Did Jace tell you that Avalians only get one kiss per lifetime? One person. There is no moving on after Jackie for me. It's her...or misery driven death. Same were to happen to him, even if he's not truly Avalian, if you two fell out somehow.

Rayah

I chuckle, Sucks for you then. Better not tell him.

I see through my eyes, Jackie walking with her sister, "Rayah!"

I sigh, Can you go over and tell her sister I had to take care of something?

Nic

You are an evil, evil little girl.

I let go of Jace and skip towards them, looking half apologetic and half excited.

"Sorry, I had to take care of something," I say in Rayah's voice.

Two questions: what's the girl's name, and what were you supposed to do that you didn't?

Rayah

Don't worry about it.

Jackie flashes a smile at me, "You look nice."

Aw...tell her I say thanks and same for her. And her sisters name is Vanessa.

Nic

Um...It's going to be very hard for me to keep from saying anything flirty and stuff around her, so we should probably make this short and sweet..

"Aw, thanks!" I gush, "Same to you."
