Isn't it lovely?

Max yawned behind the book steepled precariously on his face, light blue eyes opening to stare impassively up at the creamy white pages less then an inch away for a few seconds before closing along with an exhaling of air from his mouth - an melancholy sigh, if you would dare to call it such.

The day was a beautiful breath of spring, a pleasant chance from the normal weather - not quite warm, the kind that had everyone was outside exclaiming over the weather they'd forgotten was possible during the long winter months that seemed to stretch on forever. Max yawned again, the book becoming even more unbalanced and toppling off onto the ground still cold from the recently departed snow.
He took this as a wakeup call, sitting up and running a hand absent-mindedly through his disheveled black hair. He was wearing a rather baggy shirt, with what he assumed was the name of some band stamped brazenly across the front. It was thin, scratchy, and altogether the most uncomfortable thing he'd ever worn. It was, without a doubt, the evil incarnate.

He was also wearing a less evil pair of stained cargo pants, and a ratty pair of sneakers neither good nor bad. But at least they were comfortable, he reasoned, glancing around boredly at the masses of students out to savor the sunshine.
Today, he decided, with feeling, could only get worse; unless, of course, it got better. He sincerely and utterly doubted it would, however - he simply didn't have that sort of luck.

He yawned again, because he felt like it; thought about standing up and decided against it. No, he would sit a few minutes, in hopes that something halfway interesting would fall into his lap. He leaned back against the oak tree he'd been sleeping under, cracking his knuckles thoughtfully.

Callie was out for a walk she smiled and thought about working on her teleportation she hadn't quiet mastered she always ended up not where she wanted... She decided to give it a try again she took a deep breath and closed her eyes and thought of the lake... She then teleported herself... She opened her eyes and let out a scream... she was hanging from a branch on a tree by the lake... not on the ground... She fell towards the ground realizing there was a person below... she tried to teleport but couldn't....

(OoC: Sorry it's just you said the phrase if something interesting would fall in his lap... so bam! :P )

Max sighed, checking his watch half-heartedly. It'd be time for lunch in a half-hour... He could just eat, if - was that a scream? It sounded like it was coming from... Directly above him.

He glanced up, raising his eyebrows. "Err. Miss. Are you -" If she let go...
She let go, of course - she had to, it was the natural order of things - Max didn't even know how or why she'd gotten up there in the first place. His gaze was averted from above him to at eye level, and he simply stared for a few breaths' time before finally grinning half-heartedly. "Good thing I was there, I suppose..." He mused, half to her and half to himself, unsure how to help her up from this situation. "You might have broken a leg." He seemed completely at ease with having a stranger sitting on him - either he was more mellow then he let on, or he simply wasn't surprised by much.

She smiled... "I'm sorry, um.. still working on my teleportation... I focused by on teleporting by the lake... it put me in a tree by the lake..." She laughed a little... "I'm Callie, I guess you must be used to people falling right in your lap..." She said with a giggle...

"Ah." He smiled, coughed lightly. "Teleportation is, indeed, difficult to master." Why was she still sitting on him? Ah well, at least she wasn't heavy. He glanced up to see if the branch was in any danger of breaking off - it wasn't. She just must not have much practice climbing trees...

He thought for a moment, finally shrugging and nodding. "Guess I am. One can get used to anything, can't they?" He held out a hand to the girl, offering a polite smile. "Max Fairbarin." He announced, Scottish accent appearing for just a second to lilt the words noticeably. "Nice to meet you, Callie."

"Callie Remoraz, I didn't know full names were still fashionable." She said shaking his hand with a smile... "I think I'm okay" She said getting up off him... She winced slightly... "I've got to be prepared next time... if I keep falling from random places I'll be dead before the semesters over... How in the world I keep not getting exactly where I want to go is greek to me..." She said with a smiled... She took a step back and winced again...

Max blushed lightly, tilting his head to the side sheepishly. "It was back home... I'm in the habit, I suppose."

He clucked his tongue, although his eyes were trained more on her feet then anything else. "Couldn't have that, could we?" He frowned, motioning towards the ground and "sit down," he half ordered, half asked.

He pressed lightly on her ankle with three fingers, whitish-blue eyes glancing up at her face worriedly. "That hurt?" He questioned, lightly feeling the area to make sure it wasn't sprained.

She winced... "Yeah... but I'll be fine..." She said embarassed that she sprained her ankle by falling because of her poor teleportation skills...

He frowned, cooling his body temperature significantly and resting a hand over her ankle as a makeshift icepack. "You should be taken to the doctor..." He raised his hand for a moment, arching an eyebrow at the rapidly swelling foot. "It's a level one sprain, but you still need it bound, maybe some aspirin for the pain." His eyes swept back up to her face, and he laughed lightly at how embarrassed she was. "We can even make up a story about it being a battle wound, if ya want. Cin ya walk?"

She smiled and laughed lightly... "I think so... But I don't think they'll buy it's a battle wound." She said with a giggle... She smiled... "At least it's not as embarassing as the time I accidently teleported into the boy's bathroom... It was empty but the teacher almost caught me..." She said with a laugh....
