Relaxing

Amelia opened her eyes... "Okay I've quite frankily had enough of you Percy! I know your bigmouthed. Big this isn't the time or place to get bigmouthed." She tried not to let the blushing be noticable. "Percy remember when we first met in the woods and I was beating up a guy. YOU WANT IT TO HAPPEN TO YOU?"

Percy shut his mouth.... "I guess I'll ponder the thought... silent as the grave." He said shutting his mouth... "Oh look at that I gotta go." He said running off in super speed, leaving a more awkward situation behind.

Amelia was quiet.... She didn't know if she could face him after Percy pretty much pouring out her soul to him. She had lost the blush but was still embarassed.

"Um...I know I mean a lot to you, and um...maybe it might be possible we may be...together. Not now though." His voice was cautious, and somewhat frightened. "We have known each other for what, two days? Back then, people used to get wedded at the age of fifteen to sixteen, so I don't think his analogy was right for our situation. But...you are really nice...I know..." Valentine looked down as a flock of crows hovered over, with a mother and child robin mixed in. "...I want a person special...but...right now...lets just try to make things work out as friends. Lets get to really know each other, before anything else happens. Just before...just to clarify I was saying how we probably weren't made to be..." His voice droned off into his own thought world. "Who knows...by next week we could have already met a couple other friends..." Valentine highly doubted that would happen, especially for himself.

She listened doubting the last part... "Your right, I know that and I don't want to rush into a relationship either. And I know the time we known each other sounds so short, I don't know it's just so..." Odd... Different I can't explain or tell you, I feel so soft inside, I don't know how to stop it either. Her heart started to beat faster wanting so much to tell him the weird feeling she felt.

"Would you like to wash up and meet me at the beach or would you like to stay at your dorm and we could meet at another time?" His voice was hoping, yet somber in a way. It was so odd...why wasn't he like this with everyone. Does she enable something within me? Do people do this? Valentine's eyes dropped to the ground, his feet kicking the leaves beneath him as they crumbled into the air.

"Sure, the beach must be pretty nice this time..." She didn't want to get caught up in her feelings she tried to keep her emotions inside. She looked down slightly. Then chuckled... "You know what I just realized? I look like I got ran over by a truck." She couldn't help but laugh she did in fact look pretty bad. She looked at her shirt which was stained with blood which did look quite gross. Her wounds had completely healed so it gave people a confused look probably seeing her fine they probably would think she killed someone.

"Yea...I think I look like I just stabbed someone, but because I am a guy...well...I'll take my under shirt off later." He laughed at her comment and merely started walking towards the school. He hadn't known of her...shack.

She laughed lightly. "Well all I have to do to those girls at the dorm is give them a evil look and they'll run if they saw me like this." She said with a chuckle.

His eyes looked at the sky, which contrasted with the blood on his shirt, making it seem all the more glorious and heavenly. "I guess I will get into my bathing suit." Valentine paused.

"We are going swimming right?" He was curious as to know whether she was a swimming kind of person. "If not I guess we could walk on the beach." He was up for both, his tone more of an open one. The smell of the blood on his shirt was beginning to stink, making his breath in. "Whew...that is something..."

She nodded lightly, "Sure it sounds great." Then she heard him talk about walking on the beach, she didn't know why it seemed like part of him wanted them to be together and another part kept wanting them to be just friends. This whole thing confused her, walking together on the beach was a thing couples did. Did that mean? No he's probably just being friendly or something.

Valentine looked over to Amelia and wondered, Fates...what are they doing to me? Is fate more emotional than controlling? His eyes looked at her eyes, but managed not to try and stare at her for a long period of time in her eyes. Sheesh! What are you doing!

She felt him gaze at her eyes, she looked at his lightly. Her heart beat fasten she looked ahead. "So when should we meet up and um.. where?"

"I guess we should meet up in fifteen mintues or so, and we can meet...uhh..." He had a hard time with this one, his eyes looked up, wondering where they should meet. "I guess we could meet up at the boardwalk before we go to the beach."

She smiled lightly then she realized something... Was this as friends or was this like a date, what was so to wear? She felt so stupid, she never was asked out so she didn't know if he mean't this as a date or as two friends hanging out. She didn't want to come out looking way off but figured she'd be more embarassed if he mean't as friends and she was dressed up a bit.

Valentine looked ahead and smiled at her remark towards the girls in the dorms. She was so much more...different then them. He shook his head, taking out the images in his mind. "But...ummm...yea..." He tossed a thought.

Should i tell her to get an extra pair of clothes? "Lets go to the boardwalk after. We could...not cheat...but use our powers to get some things." He chuckled and turned towards the dorms which were only less than a eighth mile away.

She laughed... "Okay see ya later then." With that she speedily seemed to vanish, she had started off in the dirrection of the dorms but decided to look in her shack and see if they're was anything she needed. Well it wasn't exactly a shack, just a small abadoned woodsman's house. But she called it a shack since it looked sad and lonely. She entered inside looking around she went to a small dresser and opened the drawer she took out a small necklace. It was her mother's she smiled putting it on her neck.

She had only some of her things in the dorm. She didn't want to go back to the dorm to change but she really should get a bath. She sighed she figured in super speed most people shouldn't spot her. She exited the shack slowly thinking about all that happened this day. It was interesting.

Percy had been walking to. He had a idea that this boy who before couldn't think of him being 300 years old in a 14 year old's body probably wanted to chat with him.

She smiled sneaking up slowly on him, she had foreseen the problem she had memorized his scent by now and found him easily. She tapped his shoulder then appeared in super speed by his side trying to startle him. She had wore sometime simple a plain outfit like any other day except a locket around her neck. She had cleaned up nicely looking like she never fought a vampire and was close to killing herself with a dagger to save people. She looked at him with a smile. She had wore a one piece bathing suit underneath her clothes incase they did or didn't go swimming.

She liked the boardwalk it seemed so different and cheery compared to the forbidden she liked both. She didn't know why everything seemed happier with Valentine. She was glad to have him as a friend, and glad she felt her heart soften around him. She didn't know why she had helped him as much as she had. She looked at the ocean and the sunlight casting it's spell on the water below it was quite beautiful.
