Nasir's P.O.V
••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
Abigail and I headed back to the room once classes were over and collapsed on our respective beds, even though I felt like passing out, I couldn't get to sleep! So I just sat there staring at the ceiling until a small voice called out to me,"Nasir?", I debated staying quiet and attempting to sleep but in the end I responded,"Yes, Abigail?" I waited a couple minutes and finally decided that she must've fallen asleep before she replies,"That's not my name." What? What is she talking about? "What do you mean?", "When I was younger people used to make fun of me because of how "fancy" my name was, and It was stupid but it cut me because I loved my name, but I started to calling myself Abigail, I know what your thinking, That's stupid to change your name just because of some stupid kids." I softened because I knew exactly what she went through, "What was your name?" I asked her, she looked over at me and replied,"Ellenor." Ellenor, I mouthed. A wide smile spread across my face as I replied,"I like it a lot more than Abigail." She looked at me smiling and with eyes full of gratitude. I sat up and sat on the edge of my bed, "Now that you've revealed something about you, it seems only fair I correct a lie I told you last week.", she looks at me and is unable to disguise the hungry look in her eyes,"The 3 people who I... I...killed, weren't high schoolers." She furrows her brow in confusion,"Well then who were they?", "I don't know, but the reason they were there had to do with my ability. One of them came up to me and put a gun to my back and said to come outside quietly or they would shoot without a moments hesitation, so I followed them, but when I got outside they pushed me on my knees and two more came out of a truck with machine guns, the one with the pistol put it to the back of my head, and I knew he was going to shoot. So I let my ability out, and not a moment passes when I don't regret it, I know that they were going to kill me but every time I practice making things with my ability I see their faces in my head.", "I'm sorry I lied to you, I just couldn't bring myself to admit to you that it wasn't an accident, you were one of the first real friends I've had and I didn't want it to end by telling you that your roommate is a murderer." I looked down and put my face in my hands, awaiting her judgement. Great, I've just lost my only friend... Why did I tell her? Ugh I don't know I just got caught up in the moment. A moment later I felt a soft delicate hand grasp mine, I looked up at her in shock,"Didn't you hear me?! I'm a murderer! And a danger to everyone around me!" She let go of my hand and instead put her hands on my cheeks and pulled me in for a long kiss, I hesitated for a minute before returning the kiss. I felt something overcome my boundaries and I reached my hands around her neck and tangled them in her soft red hair and and we continued to kiss, she seemed to be overcome as well because she pushed me into the wall beside my bed, and we continued kissing. Finally she broke it off and putting her forehead to mine whispered,"I don't care."
