Calling All High Schoolers

Chapter 5

The weekend flew by so fast and it is Monday morning. I didn't tell mom and dad because I did not want them to worry. My grandmother is a very nice lady, but she can kick some serious butt when she wants to. If something important comes from her, you know that it's true. I am going to meet her today after school and Beatrice is going to drive Delilah and I to the house. I want to know, but at the same time I don't. Hours ticked by at school and I wanted the suspense to be over. Lunch arrived and I forgot to tell Delilah about Levi. I have told her about almost everything, but I still needed to tell her about him. Before we grabbed our lunch, I took her into the bathroom.

"Delilah, I forgot to tell you one more thing. Do you remember the boy that came over to our table to talk to me?"

"Yeah, did he say something to you? Are you in trouble? You know that you can tell me anything?"

"His name is Levi and he isn't going to hurt me. He wants to have telekinesis lessons from me. I want to ask Kellin to help me because I have only had my powers for only four years now. Also, I kind of like him. He is into photography like I am and you know how I am with guys, so can you help me?"

"Of course I can Poppy, but can I meet this Levi guy? He sounds sweet and I want to meet him today at lunch."

I took my phone out and texted Levi: Can you sit with me today? I can teach you some things and my friend Delilah wants to meet you.   

He said yes and I mentally squealed. We got our lunches and sat down. I started eating and Levi came towards us. He said his hellos and plopped down into the seat next to me. Butterflies flew around my stomach so, I stopped eating. I began his lesson on his powers when he started to eat.

"So, Levi do you know how to pick things up yet?"

"I am getting pretty good at it. I have been practicing," he said.

"Pick up that salt shaker and if you can do that then shake it over your fries."

He shakily pushed it off the table into the air. He smiled and got too excited and broke it into tiny pieces, he sat glumly.

"This is only your first lesson. I have faith that you will be great. How long have you had your powers, Levi?"

"I found out a year ago on my birthday when I got a new camera and I shattered all of the windows."

"Really? That is why! I have had four years of experience and my dad is one of the most powerful telekinetic crime solver in the state. You just need time to learn. Do you want to come over to my house and practice with Kellin and I?"

"That sounds really nice and Delilah why do you know about her powers," said Levi.

"She just recently told me because we have been friends since we were four."

As we talked more and more I had a feeling that this was so right I need to get to know him better. The conversation gave me chills, but it wasn't the only thing giving me chills. My grandmother still had to tell me what the future of my life would be. Later in the day I threw up because the emotions were getting the best of me, but I did not leave school because I have to know what is going to happen to me.
