A/N: Blahh. Okay so I messed up my last update. I posted too much (and it was a terrible tragedy!!). Sorry if it's confusing, but I fixed it now so all's well! :D (Do people even read these things?)
I spent the rest of that day in my room reading, so I when ran into Seth in the halls it was my twelfth day at the Academy. When he saw me, Seth frowned and, after he stopped walking, I walked over to him.
“I'm sorry,” I said. “I honestly have no idea what I'm apologizing for, but whatever I did, I'm really sorry about it.”
Seth stared at me for a second before starting to laugh, “That was the most original I've ever heard,” he said. “And definitely from you.”
I shrugged and ducked my head, “Am I forgiven?”
Seth nodded, “Yeah, of course.”
I grinned, “Yay. Now let's go watch Doctor Who and avoid Amber.”
“Good idea,” Seth said while laughing.

That night, Kelsey and Trip ran down into the training room and tackled Seth and I to the ground, while we were sparring. “Boo,” Trip said as he sat on my stomach.
I laughed, “Hey,” I said.
“Thanks for landing on my spleen,” Seth said to Kelsey.
Kelsey laughed, “No problem. Anytime,” she said.
Seth pushed Kelsey off himself and stood, “Thank you,” he said.
“Ow,” Kelsey said.
We laughed and Trip stood up before helping me up, “Markus said you'd better be sitting at the dinner table in five minutes, or he's going to drag you both there himself,” he said.
Seth and I laughed, “Alright, we're coming,” Seth said.
“But I was about to pin you,” I said, pouting.
“You've beaten me eleven times in the past hour,” Seth said as he chuckled and shook his head.
I tilted my head, “So?”
“You are unbelievable,” Seth mumbled.
I grinned, “I know,” I said. “Now let's go eat.”
