Chapter 5: in the blood
" it's something else it's the blood their molars blinking like the lights in the under pass where we all sit " — Lorde

As I neared the beloved Kennedy high , my thoughts couldn't help but wander back to yesterday, to the fact that I actually had a good conversation with one of them, I guess he wasn't one of them anymore but still.
We'd been working on the assignment for an hour and a half , I had been writing information down about the more important battles and he was taking notes on culture tradition and overral everyday life at that time.
" can we take a break". He asked I thought about it for a second , we had been at this for a while a small break wouldn't hurt.
" like 20 minutes". He suggested I cocked an eyebrow in disagreement.
" 15 " he bargained, I gave in setting my notebook and pen down on the bed, I felt it as he layed down from the sitting position he was in.
I looked over at the unfinished painting , it looked pretty good. I turned my head to see him just staring blankly at the ceiling. He did apologize, that's more then the others ever did , maybe things are not as they seem.
" so you paint?" I asked breaking the silence
" am I hallucinating or are you actually trying to start a conversation with me". He said all while his eyes stayed fixated on the ceiling
" never mind". I mumbled loud enough to hear.
"I do , I find it relaxing, therapeutic in a way". He answered
" how long have you been at it". I asked curiously
" well ....couple years ago started when I was 13, took a liking to it and it just stuck". He answered , I never pictured any of them as the artistic type.
" what about you ? Any hobbies ?" He asked
" nah I'm a pretty boring person". I responded blankly , hoping he wouldn't pursue the matter any farther.
" I don't think so". He responded which caught me off guard
" you hardly know me".
"I'm not claiming to, I've just had classes with you since freshman year, I noticed your pretty smart, kinda person to make it out of this town" he said
" already got It in the wood works."
" where off to?"he asked
" NYU hopefully, I've wanted to move to NYC ever since I found out about the place". I explained I to found myself looking up at the ceiling
