"Do you like it here?" I ask pristine.

She nods thoughtfully before answering "they have a lot of fun things to do, i like talking to Mac, shes my therapist here. It sucks being the youngest though."

"Your too young to be feeling this pain." I whisper.

She smiles sadly "i had to grow up fast."

Her voice is still so small and delicate but yet so mature and knowledgable.

"I wish i was as strong as you." I say. She seems like shes gone through a lot, but shes holding up so well.

"I wish i was pretty like you!" She smiles and leans over to hug me.

I smile down at her, shes so adorable how could her parents not love her to the moon and beyond?

"Thank you." I lightly whisper in her ear.

"Alright now i would like you to get to know each other, become friends, know all those little things about each other." Naomi says.

I look over to Percy and as if he senses me looking he turns his head and stares back at me. I smile and silently ask him how its going.

He lips back that its great and something else but i couldn't understand it.

It looked like he said blubber but im pretty positive that cant be right.

"What?" I mouth back laughing slightly.

I stare intently at his lips waiting for him to try again...

"My Blatter just bursted and im ganna flip a fish?" What the hell??

I give him a weirded out look and he rolls his eyes getting up and walking over to me "i saiiiidddd my partner is awesome and we get along really well."

I look at him blankly. "You my friend are horrible at lip sinking."

He pushes my shoulder lightly "shud-up, you butt-hole."

I smile "whatever shuck face."

He shakes his head and goes back to his partner.

I watch him as he leaves, he sits down and smirks at me, i stick my tongue out at him childishly.

Idiot.

I look to pristine to see her already studying me. "What?" I ask.

"Youuu liakkeeee him!" She squeals.

My eyes widen and i shush her "no! We are friends! Just met him a few days ago! He is friend zoned!" More like i fell head over heals for him instantly.

But no body needs to know that.

"Mhhmmm!" She says sassily then starts singing "Luna and percy sitting in a tree!! K I S S I N G!!! First comes love! Then -

I quickly put my hand over her mouth and glare at her "what do you think your doing!?" I whisper yell.

I look to percy and see him laughing his head off.

Oh this is just fanflippentasic!

Even Naomi is smiling!!

I look around and see everyone staring at us with smiles, for the most part, i mean one girl is glaring but what can you do?

I look down to my lap and blush.

I start bouncing my leg from anxiety.

Strangely im not feeling panic but more so just normal shyness.

After everyone gets back to their own partner i look back up at pristine to see her wiggling her eyebrows at me.

I shake my head "your a meaner." I laugh.

She giggles and jumps onto my lap and puts her arms around me.

I smile and look to Naomi, she seems a bit surprised but quickly covers it up and smiles at me.

I wonder what that was about.

After therapy we had to go to our rooms to get ready for bed.

Before i could leave Naomi called me back.

I internally groaned. Why cant i just go and sleep peacefully!?

I walk up to her slowly "yes?"

"So i noticed how fast Pristine warmed up to you, she is a very sweet girl but shes never been that open to anyone. Especially that fast." Naomi explains.

I nod my head slowly not really understanding whats so important.

"She has never really told us why shes here. I know she has the eating disorder but their is more to it, but she hasn't told anyone. She never opens up enough. Shes scared, i can tell. I was wondering since she feels so close to you, do you think you could try to figure it out?"

Their is no way im going to spill the beans on her life. Its her life, her story to tell.

"Students shouldn't have to do this and i know that. Although luna i think you could really get through to her. You could help us help her." She says professionally.

"No. Im not going to earn her trust just so you can know her story. When shes ready to tell you she will! Im not going to be your personal spy!" I say and then turn around to leave.

"Im sorry Luna! I shouldn't have asked it was wrong!" I hear her say before i close the door behind me.

I roll my eyes and pull back out my map, time for bed, finally!
