OPEN

The wind ruffled is hair as he walked across the grass dwon to the glimering lake. It sparkled under the moon's light like everything else did. He skimmed his hand acros the surface sending ripples through the water dis turbing the peace that was among it. He sighed and watched the ripples die down.

It was about midnight and he couldn't sleep. He didn't have anything to think about. everything was pretty much fine. He wondered why he could sleep. He walked on around the away from the spot where he had touched the water.

He stopped and looked into the water at his reflection. His midnight black hair looked back at him. He need to do something else wih his hair. he was tired of the emp style black. He thought of dying a lock. Hm.... That would be intresting. He looked at his lip pericing. He was used to it. He had gotten it a long time ago. His blue eyes gleamed at him but inside he wasn't gleaming. He wondered if they were always like that. He sighed and leafed his hand through his hair. He hadn't changed. Maybe gotten a little taller. His face looked a little older but was still pale was ever. He looked down at his black clothes. He never stayed the same. At least his outside didn't. He always changed every year and it was time for that change. First wit the hair and maybe he'd get a totoo. Maybe not. He would definatley start waring more colors. He didn't know if he wanted to change. He sighed and stuffed his hands into his pockets of tight black jeans and wlaked on.

He wore a black shirt with a silver skull upon it. He had tight black jeans. He shoes were black vans. He loved them .He had just gotten them. He sighed and looked around. He thought he heared footstpes behind him but h just hopped it wasn't someon who was goin to gt him in any trouble. The footsteps came closer till they stopped behind him. He sighed and looked up to see who else was out in the pitch black of the night.

[calie]

Calie who thinking about everything under the sun or rather moon since it was so late. So she decided to too see what the lake looked like this late at night. Calie threw on her flip flops and sneaked out of the castle, which was'nt really hard as Calie being so light, didn't make much noise, unless she ran into something. Tonight she managed to make it out without falling, triping, or any other noises, that Calie offen caused. So she walked though the grounds, also without falling, " Wow tonights my lucky night" she said to herself when she was about half way there.

Finally she saw a glimmer she took to bee the lake, She make her way along the trails, untill she was a few yards away. Although she saw someone of the shore of the lake, so she climbed up a near by tree. After watching him for a while she firgured he was a student, maybe her age or so. She climbed down and walked slowly over to him. Praying he would'nt get her into trouble, she finally stood right behid him. He turned to look at her, and she gave him a weak smile..

[brady]

He turned to looked into the eyes of a younger students. He sighed with realeif. He wasn't going to get into any trouble tongiht.... Hopefully. He smiied at her. "Hey, I'm Brady Roylance." He said stickingo ut his hand for her to shake. He guessed she was another person out onto the grounds exploring. He had done al ot of that when he was a first year here. He still does most of that. He grinned at the thought.

He stuffed his hands in the pockets of his tight black jeans to keep them arm. He isghed and lturned his attension back toward her. "so, what are yo doing out so late?" He asked. He couldn't sleep and he always liked looking at this place n the dark with thee only light from the moon. It made look much better. Morep eopl should see it like this.

He picked up a nice flat rock from the ground and brushed the dirt off. He swung it out onto the lake and watched it skip across the surface till it finally sank to the bottom. He contiued on skipping others rocks forgetting the girl was there but he stopped and turned back at her. It would be rude to ingore her. He wondered of what to say. H was trying to get a conversation going..... "How do you like it here?" He asked finally.

[calie]

"So, what are yo doing out so late?"


"I wanted to see the lake" said Calie looking this boy. She studyed him like a textbook before shaking his hand.


"How do you like it here?"

" It's wonderful" she said floping on the ground, falling for the first time tonight. She blinked a few times, coming to terms with her landing. Rocks are nothing fun to land on, she two picked up a rock, and lanched it. Though her rock was less graceful than Brady's, her's not even skiping once, landing as one would in a belly flop. Calie tried again land the same way again, then she relized she had'nt told him her name.


"I'm Calie Stones, by the way"

[brady]

"I wanted to see the lake"

She looked at him carfully before extending her hand forward and shaking his. He didn't mind. She should be careful of who she meets at midnight.... All by herself. He shurred at the thought. Was he trying to get to himself. He wondered why she wanted to see the lake in the dark. She could see it in the mourning for all she said was she wanted to see it. He looked at her closely but than let it drop.

" It's wonderful"

He smilied at her. She fell on the ground on a bunch of rocks. That must have hurt. He made a painful face but it seemed like she was alright. Shep icked up a rock and threw it into the lake. It ploped into the water and sank to the bottom. She tried again. "Want help?" He asked. holding out his hand to help her up and teach her how to skip a rock. It wasn't hard but was easier to start out while standing.

"I'm Calie Stones, by the way"

He nodded at her. He hadn't realised that hse hadn't given him her name. He had gotten pretty friendly but he wasl ike that, He bite his bottom lip playing with his pericing. "Nice to meet you, Calie." He said grinning at her before he skipped another rock across the surface.

[calie]

"Want help?"


" Sure, I'm not very good at anything besides falling" said Calie True too her words, Calie talents, expaned to dancing, painting, the rest contained only falling, triping Etc...


"Nice to meet you, Calie."

" You too Brady" Calie picked up a rock, and handed too him. Calie watched the lake for any ripples, in her books she read about a gaint squid, she wondered if it was still alive. " Hey, is the gaint Squid still alive?" asked Calie.
