{{ElizaWB| text = Eliza knew she probably shouldn't push on the last subject, so she didn't bring it up again. "So, Joey..." She didn't know what to say so she said the only thing that came to mind. "Whats your ability?"}} |

{{AlexSteeleWB|text = "Mesmer" he whispered, slightly ashamed.}} |

{{ElizaWB| text = "Whoa, Joey, that is so cool! I always wanted to be a mesmer! Especially after...nevermind. I got this instead." She held up her hand and a ball of water appeared.}} |
|
+ |
{{AlexSteeleWB|text = "After what?" he asked, but since he had stuck his through the water, it sounded like "Awaer ah"}} |
|
+ |
{{ElizaWB| text = "I'll tell you if you tell me your name." She said, grinning.}} |
|
+ |
{{AlexSteeleWB|text = "Nope!" Alex said poking the ball of water "No can do"}} |
|
+ |
{{ElizaWB| text = "Ugh! You're so mean! Why can't you tell me your name? I told you mine!" Eliza said, giving a frustrated sigh. She took the ball of water and dumped it on his head.}} |
|
+ |
{{AlexSteeleWB|text = "Hey!" he said angrily "This is a new shirt!"}} |
|
+ |
{{ElizaWB| text = "Well, I'm so sorry. I didn't know!" Eliza said, sarcastically, with an eye roll. She turned, walked to a different tree, and climbed up as high as she could go without the branch breaking.}} |
|
+ |
{{AlexSteeleWB|text = Alex looked at her very seriously and said "Kids don't appreciate sarcasm"}} |
|
+ |
{{ElizaWB| text = Eliza huffed and turned away from him. "I don't get why you won't tell me your name! It's not like you're some criminal or anything."}} |
|
+ |
{{AlexSteeleWB|text = Alex was able to hid his wince through a teasing smirk "You don't know that"}} |
|
+ |
{{ElizaWB| text = Eliza turned and narrowed her eyes. This kid seemed familiar now. She didn't know why she was only just noticing this, but something was familiar about him. "Why..why did I you seem familiar?" Eliza asked.}} |
|
+ |
{{AlexSteeleWB|text = Alex paled "I- I have to go" he slowly backed away}} |
|
+ |
{{ElizaWB| text = "No, wait! Don't go!" Eliza jumped down from the tree, stumbled up, ran over and grabbed his arm. " Please! Don't go! I'm sorry if I said anything wrong! I just wasn't thinking straight. Everything going on in my life just... " Eliza looked down. Memories started flooding her mind. Memories she wanted to forget.}} |
|
+ |
{{AlexSteeleWB|text = More than anything in the world, Alex wanted to comfort her. He wanted to ask what was wrong and give her a hug. But it was to risky, he shouldn't have stopped to talk to this girl anyway. If she found out who he was... well, she almost had. "I'm sorry" he said, pulling away from her.}} |
|
+ |
{{ElizaWB| text = Eliza felt tears in her eyes. "Fine! I guess I'll just go back to having no friends. Cause no one wants to be my friend. No one cares about me. No one likes me. And when I met you, I thought I'd found a friend. But I guess I was wrong. " Eliza walked over to the tree she had been in, sat down, and buried her head in her lap.}} |
|
+ |
{{AlexSteeleWB|text = "Eliza..." Alex started "I do care about you. I do want you to be your friend. I do like you. But..."}} |
|
+ |
{{ElizaWB| text = "But..what? Let me guess, you don't really think of me as a friend. You wanna know why I have no friends? Because no one likes the fact that I kept to many secrets. No one liked the fact that I used to date one of Foxfire's most.." She slammed her mouth shut and covered her mouth with her hand. She totally did not do that. She totally did not just embarrass herself. She totally did not just imply that she got dumped by a super famous guy.}} |
|
+ |
{{AlexSteeleWB|text = Alex shook his head. He wanted to ask who she had once dated, but he couldn't. "It's none of those" he said instead "I can't put myself in danger". This girl had almost recognized him. Maybe she did, and she was stalling until the Nobility got here. He needed to go. Now.}} |
|
+ |
{{ElizaWB| text = "Why would you put yourself in danger? It's not like I'm gonna hurt you or any thing. I don't even have my imparter on me! There's nothing I could, or would do too you, Joey! You can trust me, I promise."}} |
|
+ |
{{AlexSteeleWB|text = "You don't understand" he said}} |
|
+ |
{{ElizaWB| text = "Oh? What part don't I understand? The part where you don't want to be my friend? Because I totally understand that. No one does."}} |
|
+ |
{{AlexSteeleWB|text = "No!" he said "It's for your safety"}} |
|
+ |
{{ElizaWB| text = "I don't care about my safety." Eliza snapped. "I'd rather have a friend at this point."}} |
|
+ |
{{AlexSteeleWB|text = "Even if your friend was a kidnapper?!" Alex snapped, then clasped a hand over his mouth. He did not just do that. He did not just tell her that.}} |
|
+ |
{{ElizaWB| text = "Yes! Even if they're a kidnapper! I'm sick of having no friends and being ignored! I doubt my parents even care about me anymore! All I want is a friend!" Eliza snapped back, not realizing his mistake.}} |
|
+ |
{{AlexSteeleWB|text = His jaw dropped "You have no idea what you just said"}} |

{{ElizaWB| text = "No! I do know what I just said! My parents hate me as it is, everyone in school hates me, I have NO friends, and everyone I know hates me! I'd rather run away then suffer through it every day." Eliza was almost in tears now.}} |
|
+ |
{{AlexSteeleWB|text = "Well then, here's your new friend: Alex Steele, supposed kidnapper and criminal" he pointed to himself}} |
|
+ |
{{ElizaWB| text = "You--you're Alex?" Eliza asked, shocked.}} |
|
+ |
{{AlexSteeleWB|text = What had he done? "I have to go"}} |
|
+ |
{{ElizaWB| text = "No, don't! I'm not going to do anything to you! I just..was surprised because... " she didn't know how to word this.}} |
|
+ |
{{AlexSteeleWB|text = "Because kidnappers are supposed to be fierce and scary, and the scariest thing i've done is accidently hit you with a flying pinecone?" he said}} |
|
+ |
{{ElizaWB| text = "No, that's not it! I.." She looked towards the ground and blurted out, "I just wish I could be like you. Like, feel free and not under pressure."}} |
|
+ |
{{AlexSteeleWB|text = Alex gave her a questioning look "You relieze I'm constantly worried the Nobilities going to find me and send me to exile?"}} |
|
+ |
{{ElizaWB| text = "Yes. No. I don't know! I just want to feel like I'm free to do what I want instead of trapped."}} |
|
+ |
{{AlexSteeleWB|text = Alex shook his head "I'm sorry. I have to go" and he ran off into the forest}} |
|
+ |
{{ElizaWB| text = "Alex!" She started to run after him, but realized he probably never wanted to see her again now that she knew who he was. Eliza sat down and buried her head in her lap. The one friend who she thought actually cared about her, had just run away from her, and probably hated her now.}} |
|
+ |
{{AlexSteeleWB|text = Alex kept running and didn't look back. He took out his pathfinder and light leaped away, hoping Eliza wasn't following him. But in the back of his mind, he knew all he wanted to do was see her again.}} |
