Able walked down the hall and heard Kristin laughing, a sound he hadn't ever been able to hear. Walking to her door he stopped when he heard Fade's voice, "Come on, Snips! There has to be something about me that you think is funny."
"Your face is kinda funny... looking." she laughed. Feeling a rage burn within his chest Able clenched his fist, breaking the glass he held in his hand. The shards fell as his nails dug into his palm. "This is not going to work. I won't let it. Kristin is mine."
Able stormed off down the hallway to his room. He walked past room 217 and read the nameplate from it, "Finnigan 'Fade' Lockwood" smirking he took out the tag and tucked it into his coat pocket. He started walking again when he saw Ryan trying to open his door. The short boy was kicking and pulling on the handle as he grumbled about God knows what.
"Kid, it's a push door." Able scoffed as Ryan realized that he was true. He waved thanks and scurried into his room. "I already can't stand that kid. Always happy and go lucky." Able groaned in disgust as he turned into his room. The grey and blue walls were dark and the curtains were drawn closed. There was a wooden desk that had an old computer sitting on it. "Time to see who actually is Finnigan Lockwood." Able sneered as he logged into the Fletcher and Morrison confidential systems with his personal login.
As he typed and clicked, Able glanced to the windows and decided to open them, so he could hear how close Fade and Kristin were getting. As he flung open the drapes he saw them sitting on her balcony just a few rooms down. Her lavender hair dancing in the breeze. Fade was laying on his side with a cocky grin plastered across his face. "We will see how this works out... we will see now won't we?" Able turned back to the computer that had a photo of Fade before he modified his appearance. The teen dug through his files trying to gather all of the dirt he could find. He clicked on a folder and read it aloud;Finnigan Lee Lockwood

Able smirked as he noticed a rock hit his window. "Stupid birds. Always throwing shit at me." he stood and walked to the window and held the small rock in his hand. The rock was tied to a small letter and when Able looked up he saw a carrier hawk perched on the railing of his balcony.
Cautiously, he opened the letter and smiled when he finished. He took a small piece of stationery from the desk and wrote his response, "Don't worry. We will meet soon and our plans will begin."
He tied the letter to the hawk's leg and tossed it back its owner. Holding the rock in his hand he looked back over to Kristin and Fade. They now were both standing with their faces in the wind. They looked to be getting closer as Fade's hand slowly inched around her shoulders. Not having it, Able wrote a warning on the small stone and threw it.
The written message soared through the sky and hit Fade in the head. The confused criminal bend down to pick up the rock and turned it over. Suddenly he looked at Kristin and held her hand briefly before running out of the sight. There was a slam of a door then the sound of Fade running down the hall. Amused with his work, Able turned back to Kristin who was not on the balcony. She was gone. "The hell? Where did she go?" he asked himself as he closed his window and looked back at the door.
He walked out the door, back down to her room, knocked on the door, and found her on her bed smiling with pink dusted across her cheeks. Able had never seen her this happy, her blush stood out against her pale skin and her smile could have lit an entire city if it could. She held her hand to her chest as she faced up to the beige ceiling. Her eyes were closed, she looked blissful.
He couldn't help himself. He walked over to her and lomed over her. He reached out to touch her arm, slowly tracing her skin with his fingers as they lightly touched her. He leaned in to kiss her when she opened her eyes and screamed.
"Able!? What the hell were you doing!?" She rolled off the other side of the bed and held her arm to her chest. He held his arms out and made it seem that she was breathing, "You've been known to stop breathing when you were sleeping. I couldn't tell when I came in to check in on you.""Oh, thank you. Now get out, I'm fine." She ushered him out the door. There was the sound of the lock being turned. "Soon Kristin Fletcher, you will be mine." He laughed softly as he stared at her door, "Soon."
