Beatrice walked up to the roof, on a calm gentle night, and in her hands she held a book, and a pen. Stars were out with a bright moon, making the snow on the ground shine. She stood at the edge, and her hair blew around with a small gentle breeze in the air. She smiled slightly, then sat down where there was no snow, and she opened the book she had, which was really her diary. She turned it to a empty page and began writing in it with the pen she had, every no and then she looked up and about then back writing.

After awhile she closed her diary, and thought for a moment, and she curled hair around her finger, in thought. After a bit, she opened her diary again and this time she was sketching the world below her. Though it wasn't the greatest, because she was never really good using a pen, but right now she didn't care, she just wants to draw and think about what is going on.

Ember rested peacefully atop of the roof, where there was the least amount of frost. The air was brisk and the wind was strong enough to blow her hair over her face. She smiled and slowly sat up. Her back was damp from laying down in water, so she produced a small flame to dry her back quickly without burning it.

Ember suddenly noticed something. A girl had appeared on the roof and had sat down and began writing in what Ember guessed was her diary. The girl stopped for a moment, than went back to her diary. Ember slowly got up and made her way to the girl and said, "Hi." nicely. "So, what are you doing?"

Beatrice stopped sketching when the other girl came over, and she looked up at the girl and smiled. She looked the girl up and down, and thought for a moment, before answering. "Hello..." She said also in a nice tone. Then thought a bit more, wondering if she should answer the girls next question.

"I was writing... but now I'm sketching." She said and nodded to the ground below as if she was telling the girl that she was drawing the world below.

Ember sat down next to the girl and siad, "You like to draw? So do I." They way the girl had nodded downwards, Ember figured that she was drawing things below her. "My name's ember, by the way."

"I rarely draw... But I still do really like it." She said. Ember? Nice name, Beatrice thought to herself. "Nice to meet you, Ember. I'm Beatrice." She said, offering her pale hand to the girl.

"It's nice to meet you Beatrice." Ember said, taking the girls' hand connecting it with her own. "Are you new here?" Ember hadn't seen her around the campus before, so either Beatrice was new or just prefered to remain in the shadows.

Beatrice nodded. "Yep... I'm a new one here,though I wish I wasn't. I've never been to a school, and here it makes me nervous." She said, and she looked out at the ground below, and sighed. She didn't know what to expect from this school.

Ember nodded her head in agreement. "Yeah, I know what you mean," She said. "I always hated being the new kid too. Feeling so nervous adn scared and not knowing anyone. But then I met someone and it wasn't so bad after that. I got used to being the new kid. My dad made me switch schools four times."

Beatrice listened. She had a father she thought. Mordechai was mine, she thought more. "Four times? That's a lot." She said. "Did you like changing schools that much?" She asked, straightening up in her sitting position.

Ember sighed. ¨Yeah, I know. But after the first two times I sort of got used to it.

¨Honestly? No, I mean, I always had to start over and I wouldn't know how things would work, so it was hard. But I knew that there was no avoiding it, so I had to be brave and suck it up." She paused for a moment, thinking back to when her father would approach her saying, 'I got a new and better job sweetie'. It made her want to break into tears, but she didn't want to cry in front of Beatrice, it'd be a little embarassing. Though she couldn't prevent that one tear drop that escaped. Hopefully Beatrice didn't notcie.
