Gifted

Chapter XIII: Not Yet

*JASON'S POV*

Oh jeez.

-Well.. It's a long story, and I should probably tell you later.

-Why don't you want to tell me?, she asks, disappointed and confused.

-It's not time. That's it. That's all I can say for now, I answer, felling sorry that I can't tell her now. Not yet, anyways.

-Well, can you at least tell me why I can't read anybody's minds when I'm out of the camp?

••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

*ASH'S POV*

-Okay, he says. Since your not fully used to having your powers, you don't really have permission to use them yet.

-Wait.. I need to have permission to use my powers?!

-Well, it's more mental permission than actual permission. And plus, your not completely ready yet.

-Fine, I say.

Well, that sucks a little bit.

••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

We get back into the school. Lets hope the rest of my day doesn't suck too.

As I'm walking in the hallway, I pass by my next class, since I need to get to my locker first, and all of a sudden, I thought that I saw Myles.. Wait, was it Myles?!

-Myles?

-Ash? Oh my god, I didn't know that you went here! I just joined the school.

-Cool! So, are you in this class this period?, I ask. Let's hope so.

-Yep. This is quite a coincidence, isn't it?

-Yeah, but what happens if somebody asks how we know each other? That might be a problem.

-Well, let me think.. Oh! Just an old friend, let's stick with that.

-Okay! What's your full name, anyways?

-Oh yeah.. It's Myles Leslie.

-That's pretty simple. So, I gotta get my stuff, see you in class, Myles!, I say.

Then I whisper,:

-Oh. and stay away from Terra, okay?

-Okay, she answers back in a whisper.

••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

*JASON'S POV*

Okay, English time. At least I've got an easy class right now.

I walk into class, and to a surprise, that new friend of Ash, that I can't seem to remember her name, is at the school?! Whoa, this'll be a weird year. Not like it's not already!

Here comes the teacher. Well, Myles is new, so introduction time with the teacher. Great.

-Hello, class. We have a new student, as you can already see. Come up here and introduce yourself, dear.

At least she knows the teacher is nice. At times.

-Ummm.. Hello, I'm Myles, she says nervously.

Ash stands up.

••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

*ASH'S POV*

I stand up. I might as well help Myles, she seems a bit (or a lot) nervous.

-Um.. She's one of my old friends, and she can be a little nervous at first.

-Yeah, she says, smiling slightly at me.

The teacher orders Myles and I to sit down, and starts the class.
