Melody slammed her door and whipped off her glooves tossing then in the middle of her room. She fell down on her bed her tears still red hot on her cheeks. "Stupid feathered pigeon." She groaned then turend on her side.
There was a scuffling near her closet and she sat up immediatly then screamed.
"Shhh!" Chrissie hissed stepping out of the shadows. Melody's hand clapped over her mouth. "Do you want then to catch me?"
Melody dropped her hand. "What are you doing her?" Chrissie yerked her head to the window. Melody gasped. "You broke into my dorm room?" She asked in shock. She then whipped her head to the door a knock on the door startling both girls. Melody jumped up and motioned to the closet. Chrissie got in and Melody inched to door open and peaked out. "Yes?"

"I just wanted to apologize about what happened earlier today. So I'm sorry...and I was curious about your power, what's the green stuff?" Ryan kept his eyes glued on the floor as he spoke. It would feel like a sin if he looked up into her eyes and eliminated all free will. Of course he'd heard more then one voice but he it was none of his buisness and he didn't see why it was important.

Melody dropped her gaze at the spot he was looking at and smiled. "I thought mutant powers reacted to strong emotions." She said softly. She dared not switch on the light. She blushed more out of anger at the mention of her powers and looked up into his face. "Its not a power... Its a curse. I kill with a touch... with a kiss. " She held her hand to him ready to pull away if he dared touch it. "Its poison." She stared down at her hand and the glistening liquid on her fingertips. She could feel her eyes well up once more. "Anything else...?" She asked keeping her voice numb from feeling

"I have no control over my powers because my emotions are constant," Ryan replied quietly. He didn't like the subject. "Yes, there is something else," his eyes stayed locked on a spot on the ground as he stared at it intensly, making sure his eyes didn't travel towards hers. Ryan really did want to know the truth of this next question, but whether she lied or told the truth it was because she wanted to. "Do you wanna go out with me sometime?" It was hard to be any kind of intimate when you're staring at the floor but Ryan seemed to pull it off well as he asked the question he'd been dying to ask.

Melody watched him shifting from one side to the other feeling her annoyance overwelm her. Chrissie was contantly at the back of her mind. She knew Chrissie had come for a reason and she wanted to know why. Then he asked his question and she froze her eyes changing from irritation to surprise. "Sorry?" She asked utterly shocked that he had just asked her out. "What? Like a date or something?" She winched at her words. They sounded childish and it made her blush instantly.
Chrissie listened through the ajar wardrobe door then sighed. Great... just brilliant She thought and instantly felt jeolous of this guy. Melody had always been just hers. This guy was going to ruin everything. She heard the intrest in her friends voice and felt the anger rise with her power. "say no..." She silently prayed.

He smiled as he looked up at her for a split second, "yeah, but njot like a date. An actual one." Ryan had somehow managed to tease her--though he didn't really mean it offensively-- even with such a sensitive subject. "Let me rephrase that:would you like to go out on a date with me sometime?" He was smiling though it was barely visible with his head on the floor.

Melody smiled. "Okay...Um... when?" She asked unsure. "Ryan Look at me... its okay.I'm not about to lie to you anyway." She said gently
Chrissie winced. She wanted to jump out an throttle the boy. Melody was definaitly intersted. If Chrissie just mentioned what happened to Brian...

"There's nothing much to do around here, I'm free right now...and tomorrow...and the day after that. It's more of when you have time for me," his eyes raised slowly to hers and there was a slight smile that sat on his face. "And I know you won't lie to me, I just want to leave that choice open."

She felt the words form in her mind again. "Not tonight. Chrissie's here in my room." She clapped her hand over her mouth and then jerked to fine chrissie had fallen out of the cupboard with shock. Crystal looked up at Melody with an annoyed expression. Melody smirked down at her friend then stood back for Ryan to see. "Ryan This is Chrissie My best friend and blood sister." She introduced.

"I'm sorry, Mel," he blushed, knowing from the expression on Chrissie's face, he wasn't supposed to know she was there. "Hey, Chrissie. It's a pleasure to meet you." Ryan put out his hand for Chrissie to shake and to help her up. Then turned back to Mel. Nto sure whether to leave the two alone or to stay.

Crystal toke his hand and got to her feet then walked over to the door and shut it. Melody sat down on her bed crossing her legs and looking up at Chrissie expectantly. Crystal looked between the two. She gave a sigh. "I heard what that over grown pigeon said. No one speaks to you like that. " She began then shot ryan a dangerous look. "Come with me... Mel. I want you pack your things and come with me..."
Melody gulped gowing pale. "I don't think thats such a good idea Crystal. Where would we go... What would we eat.? Come stay here with me... The money you have is enough for you to get by."She turned to Ryan begging with her eyes again for him to help her convince her friend "And be dictated to like I'm 12..? No thank you...You don't need them we've always just needed each other." Chrissie tried to reason determination now etched in her voice

Ryan quietly mumbled in the corner, "if you never learn to follow orders then you won't understand what it takes to lead." He then raised his voice more, "maybe you have full control of your powers but as for the rest of us...it helps when we have someone to help us get through. I know it seems like it's not important and definitely not useful but I'd rather stay here then on the streets. No matter how they treat me. At least I'm with my own kind, I don't have to hide who I am or act like what's important isn't. Honestly, it's better here." Pentothal said, doing his best to help Mel.

Chrissie slowly turned and listened to his voice. Melody watched her hardened face change into a softer more accepting one. Melody's smile grew. Her mind filled with all the things her and Chrissie could do here. It would be just like the orphanage. Then Chrissie's eyes narrowed again. Without a word she turned around and walked to the window once again.
"Chrissie!" Melody jumped and hurrried towards her. "He's right. This is what you need. Your too soft to survive out there. You stay here with them..." She started to climb out the window. Mel grew silent as she watched her climb down then formed a fist and slammed it against the wall next to the window. "I'm sorry Ryan." She said softly then turned to him. "I think I could do with a little escape tonight."

Ryan watched her fist hit the wall harshly. "I'm sure she'll come back," he looked at her, he wanted to hug her or tell her everything was going to be alright but he wasn't even sure he believed that himself. "As for the escape, I might just be able to help you with that...but it depends what exactly you'd like to do or where you'd go..."

She smiled softly at him and thought about it for a moment."The beach..." She finally said. "The beach under the stars at..." She lifted her hand to glance at the time on her wrist watch. "two in the morning." Her eyes returned to his. "I wanna go lay on the sand with the ocean roaring in the distance and the stars blinking down on me." The truth tumbled out of her mouth in one easy sweep. "I want to talk about you... I want to get to know you..." Melody blushed.
