Our Little Secret

Post LOS
Millard POV

"Children!" Called Miss P. "We have a new peculiar coming to stay with us,"

We rushed to the front of the house excited. Since our ages had been reset, we moved to a large house a couple minutes away from Jacob's house. It's now 2017, and even though we live in the modern world, nothing has changed really. We changed our clothing to fit in, but I still go out naked so that nobody freaks out about floating pajamas.

We gathered in the living room and found that a girl, probably 16 years old, was standing next to Miss P. There was nothing obviously noticeable about her, so I couldn't guess what her peculiarity was. She had long, black hair to her waist and hazel eyes. She looked at us curiously with a slight smile on her face. Of course as she looked around, she didn't see me.

"Children-" stared Miss P.

"You can't call us children anymore!" Interrupted Claire. "I'm nearly 10!" (Ya know. Physically)

"Alright," said Miss P, fondly. "Peculiars,"

Claire nodded.

"Meet Joy,"

Joy. A nice name.

Choruses of hellos rang through the room. "Why don't we introduce ourselves?" Said Emma. "I'm Emma Bloom. Pleased to meet you,"

I ran up to my room and put on some clothes before rushing back downstairs to see Joy shaking hands with everyone as they introduced themselves.

"Hi! I'm Olive! I float!"
"Well, that's very cool. Could I see?" Asked Joy.

Olive happily took off her shoes and floated to the top of the room. Joy stared with wonder and asked, "Can you come back down?"

"Yes! I've been working so hard to control my levitating!" Exclaimed Olive. She slowly, but surly came down.

"Wow! That's very impressive," said Joy.

Joy turned to me and cocked her head. She didn't seem very shocked by floating clothes.

"Millard Nullings at your service," I said and bowed. "I'm invisible as you can see. Well, you can't see. But you know what I mean,"

Joy laughed and said, "Nice to meet you!"

I noticed that she didn't offer a handshake. She probably didn't want to seem rude because she couldn't see where my hands are. I brushed it off.

"What's your peculiarity?" Asked Enoch. Miss P glared at him. "Uh, if you don't mind me asking,"

"Well, I can make myself or anything visible and invisible," she replied. My heart stopped.

"So, you're like a better version of Millard?" Asked Enoch, smirking.

"I wouldn't say better. Just a variation of his peculiarity."

"You'd be able to make Millard visible?" Asked Jacob.

"I could," she said slowly. "But only if he wanted me too. It's his peculiarity, after all"
