Rain

Chapter 14

Daniel's POV:::
Saturday went pretty well. After I asked Jake why he joined the Black Feathers and he tensed up, he didn't really lighten up fully again. But he relaxed a bit.
It's Monday again. The means I have to face Lillian again. Great. I really hope that she doesn't try to talk to me. Because I might not be able to push her away.
I went to school, and I just kept the hood of my jacket up all day. She tried to talk to me a couple times, and so did Jennifer. But it was easy to ignore Jen. I started to talk to Lillian but I caught myself and left. I know it hurt her, but it was for her own good.

Lillian's POV:::
I tried to talk to Daniel several times, but he ignored me almost every time. One time he started to talk to me, but then he said he had to go and he just left without saying another word to me.
I don't know what I did to him to make him hate me. One day we were outside in the rain laughing and smiling together, and just a few days later he hates me. What did I do wrong?
After school I went home and straight up to my room. Aunt Martha tried to get me to eat supper, but I couldn't. I felt sick to my stomach because of the emotions flowing through me. I cried myself to sleep that night. I had another dream about Daniel. In this one, I dreamed that a blonde boy with green eyes, around 14 started hanging out with him. Then I saw a quick scene where Daniel was teaching him how to shoot different kinds of guns.

Daniel's POV:::
Drone called me and told me he needed me to go to the office to continue to train Jake.
When I got there, I found Jake immediately. He was sitting on the stairs that led to the basement. He had his head in his hands and he was tugging his hair.
I touched his shoulder, and he flinched, but when he saw it was me, he stood up and his mood seemed to lift. "What are we going to work on?" he asked me.
"Well, what were you thinking?"
"I thought maybe you could teach me how to shoot? I don't have any experience and I need to know how to work the job."
"That sounds good." We started walking to the room where we practice shooting. "While I'm thinking about it, what do you want your code name to be? It's like a nickname that everyone calls you. Everyone here has one."
"I have no idea. What is yours?"
"It's Raven. What do you think about Robin?"
"That's great. I'll use that."
"Alright then, Agent Robin. Welcome to the indoor shooting range." I said as I opened the door.
He looks at everything in awe. He looked back at me with the look of an excited little kid, but he was. He was only a young boy, but I nodded and he ran in and put on his gear.

The rest of the training session went well. When I got home I immediately went up to bed after telling my parents goodnight. It had been a long day.
I feel asleep thinking about Lillian and how she would hate me if she knew.
