James and I would meet today. Ava Paige told me that he wasn't always stable to be in public places. His entire family was killed by the Flare, trying to get him here. They sound brave but I'd like to think that he tried to save them. If he wasn't a coward, he could've most likely saved them.

He was a nice looking boy, light brown hair with a goofy haircut, his eyes stayed a dull brown and his smile was always forced. He didn't like to smile or laugh or talk.

Ava Paige sat us down and told us that for another year, we wouldn't have to worry about death, because in that year, we would both separately be trained differently.

"James I'd like you to say something Audrey." Ava Paige asked him and he shrugged.

"Come on James." I encourage but I see his eyes drop to the floor.

"We practiced this James." Ava Paige told him. "Hello Audrey."

James cocked his head up. "Hello Audrey."

"Hi James." I smiled.

"Very good." Ava Paige clapped her hands. "I'll be scheduling another session like this every week."

Ava Paige left us alone and I smiled genuinely at him, WICKED is good.

"Are you liking it here?" I asked.

"No." James shook his head.

"Why?" I questioned.

"I've been sent here to be hired as an assassin." James sighed. "That doesn't sound like saving the world to me and you act like I am not hired to kill you."

"I make the most out of it."

"I'll see you in a week Audrey." He got up and left the room.

"Bye."
