(They are in the orphanage and comet is 4 years old)
*Comet's POV

I have been here since I wad born. I am 4 ,and girls don't like me because of my "birth mark" in my right hand palm, but boys think its cool. I heard from the office (they teach the 4+ kids their education) that their would be a new boy coming in the orphanage and he had a hard time forgetting what happened to his family. But I still hope he would be my friend.

"Children! " one of the caretakers yelled in a soft manner." There will be a new kid coming in ,and I want you guys to be nice to him, please." I was so excited to meet him, I thought to myself.
I raised my hand,"Um... may I go to the restroom." "Yes you may" she told me with a soft and quick voice.I jolted towards the door and ran to the girls bathroom with my hood on. While I ran, I got a small peek of the new boy. But when I did, he looked like a shadow....

* ??? POV

When I stepped in , I saw the walls where colorful and had many pictures of different kids. The caretaker was holding my hand to take me to my class room. I was hugging my cat plushie with my other arm because I was scared that kids won't like me because of my "birth mark" in my left hand palm. I also had some ripped clothes so I was also scared that they would make fun of me. Just when I thought of that , a girl looked like she was running towards me. I squeezed my cat , but then noticed she turned to go to the girl's restroom. I then thought she was cute or pretty even tho she had a hood on. But still, she might not want me to be her friend. I sighed as I entered the classroom with the caretaker.

*Comet's POV

I finished going the restroom and went back to the classroom. Usually a caretaker takes a child to the restroom but they trust me on going back. When I entered the room, I saw the new boy. He had ripped clothes long hair( just enough to cover his eyes) that was also fluffy. He also had a cute cat plushie and was holding it by his chest like if it was his soul.
I sat down and he started to talk. " M-my name is Eclipse. I am 4 years old and I love to color and draw." Some boys started laughing at his name and made fun of him because of his plushie. One of the caretakers shushed them and they became quiet with a grunt. The girls ( in the other hand) looked like they liked him for how different he is from the other boys. It seemed that he acts shy because of his family he lost. Maybe...

* Eclipse's POV

The girl that I saw earlier seemed the only one who actually wants to be my friend. Not like the girls who like me for my cat and not like the boys who think I'm weak. She actually seems like she wants to be my friend , is it me just thinking that since I like her? I really don't know but I think she might be nice to me.
"Comet, since you like wearing boy clothes and always have extras. Why don't you give some to Eclipse here?" Right in that point , I felt nerves to meet her. I stood still when she walk towards me. "Come on , you need new clothes and its almost lunch time." She smiled and took my hand to show me where to get clothes.

*Comet's POV

I took eclipse from the hand to my room. All the rooms have bunk beds and I was the only one that doesn't have a roommate. He might be able to be my roommate. When I got inside , he looked around and I started grabbing clothes for him. When I gave him the clothes, I noticed he couldn't since he had his cat."Can I hold your cat so you can go change." He nodded slowly and gave me the plushie.I hold the cat as if it was a baby. Afterwards, I took Eclipse to the boy's restroom so he can change.
