I was talking to Claire at her locker and she asked " so you're going to the spring fling right?" And I said " yeah, surprisingly I'm excited for it" and Claire smiled " you can go with Jim and I so you don't have to be alone" and I chuckled " no that's ok, it's y'all's dance and I'm fine going alone" and Claire shrugged " alright it's your choice" then closed her locker door and Mary and Darci came and Mary asked " Jim lake asked you to the dance and you didn't tell us?, hi leslie" I rolled my eyes, of great it's the brat and the so called popular girl and Darci said " spill it C-bomb, before mare and I go ka-boom" then I said " she doesn't have to tell you anything" then she put her hand in front of me to silence me and smiled and I rolled my eyes and she said " there's not much to really tell, except... I sorta asked him." And Darci said " good, girl" and Mary said " excuse me, Darci. Do not celebrate. Educate. That's not the way you do things, Claire, there are rules to being on to of the social food chain, what sort of world do you think we live in?" Then they walked away and I just hand mimicked them and Claire said " if only you knew." And I chuckled then she walked with them and then Blake came up to me and asked " wanna be my date to the spring fling" and I said " boo no I'm dating someone and you're not that someone so get out of my face" and I walked away with Claire, Mary and Darci and Mary asked " so you going to the spring fling Leslie?" And I said " yep" and Darci asked " ohh who with?" And I looked at Claire and she was giving me a look that said be social and I rolled my eyes and I said " with no one" and Mary stopped and grabbed me by my shoulders " HOW CAN YOU NOT GO WITH SOMEBODY? I THOUGHT YOU HAD A BOYFRIEND!" And I said " I do but I don't need a guy to take me to the fling, I can't have just as much fun by myself" then she went silent and Darci said " I respect your independence" and I said " well I didn't ask for your respect". I was in the bathroom washing my hands when I felt something go in my ear but I just shook the feeling off and I started walking out of the bathroom when I heard something " weak" and I stopped and looked around ( a pixie went in her ear so now she will be seeing stuff, just thought I'd let y'all now) then I looked back at the door and saw Xavia " woah uh I don't remember going into my subconsciousness" and Xavia chuckled " you really think you can help your brother defeat Gunmar?" And I said " with enough training I could" and she laughed " oh come on I had the hang of my magix within 4 weeks and I didn't need any potions to upgrade my magix" and I Gulped " I'm trying" and she said " oh I'm so disappointed in you, you're much more powerful than me and yet so useless and weak" " I don't understand why you're saying this, you usually have more faith in me" and she grabbed my face " you may look like me but you certainly aren't me, I defeated so many Gumm-Gumms before I died and you can't even protect your brother from totem trolls" I wanted to cry and she laughed " if you can't fight me how are you going to fight Gunmar?" And I said "w-what I don't want to fight you" then she pushed me down and I said " you're my mentor I can't fight you" " wow I can't believe I didn't see it before how pathetic you truly are" wait that was a new voice, I looked behind me and it was Draal " w-what Draal?" And he kneeled down to me and said " I think we should've this before it even started, I want someone who is strong not pathetic" tears started coming down my face, I can't this anymore, this can't be real, " weak" " pathetic" " lack of emotion" I can't take anymore, I fired at them and put my hands over my head, shaking then I heard 2 people that sounded like Toby and Claire and Claire said " Leslie you have to snap out of it and calm down" and Xavia said " ha like your friends would ever help you" and I couldn't help but just keep crying and made like a fire bird looking like a Phoenix to protect me, " I'm weak *sob*" and Toby said " no you are not" then I felt a sharp pain on my cheek and I looked up and saw Toby and Claire and I slapped Toby for slapping me " ow" and the fire in the bathroom went away and I said " I'm sorry" and Claire said " wasn't your fault, but we have to help Jim" then we ran out of the bathroom and we were going the gym where we Jim and we were so close then apparently Angor Rot was there and closed the door " NO" we slammed on the door trying to get in then it sounded like he was talking to him about something then he just left and we busted through the door and we hugged Jim and he asked " you ok sis?" And I nodded then we kept hugging and we went outside of the school and we were just talking and then blinky came and said " you're alive! Master Jim, I had to run the entire way, with a lavatory stop or two." Then his stomach grumbled, um that's concerning and he said " oh, dear, your automobiles are the most obstinate machines. How did you survive Angor rot?" And Jim said " long story. Have you heard of the inferna copula?" And blinky said " indeed I have.". Blinky was telling us about the inferna copula while we were walking home and now I told Draal about what happened today and he said " well you know I don't think you're weak right?" And I shrugged " yeah but it still hurt" then he put his hands on my cheeks pulling me up on my tippy toes and kissed me then I kissed back and put my arms around his neck then led me to the couch " how about I show you what I really think of you" and I smiled " all right" then we made out on the couch and it escalated from there. I laid on his chest panting and he rubbed my bare back and kissed my head " that's what I think of you" and I smiled and we kissed again.
