Two More Flavors of Dumb [Lilith Malixi]

[lil]

"Maybe you'll remember later. It'll be okay.

[/color]" Lilith offered, wishing she could make him feel better. When the phone started to ring, Lilith took a step away so that he wasn't so close.

"I... can leave,[/color]" Lilith offered, not wanting to interfere with his cell phone conversation. Her desire to leave was only reinforced when she heard Ren tell the person that he was with her. Instead, she watched as he placed the phone on speaker, projecting the voice of the stranger.

"I've heard a lot about you- your brother seems to adore you, Cassy. I'm Lilith- I go to school with your brother.[/color]" Lilith explained. She was smiling, even though Cassy wouldn't be able to see it. Ren could, as far as she was concerned. After she spoke, she looked to Ren, hoping he didn't mind what she'd said. If she had her way, she wouldn't be talking to his sister. Shouldn't it be special time between the two? Maybe not.[/blockquote][/blockquote][/size]

Ren looked at Lilith and mouthed the words 'it's fine.' as Cassy spoke again. So it is a girl! Lilith was it? Well, make sure to take care of my big bro, he's a great person and you seem perfect- She was cut off by Ren. "Cassy! We're not dating or anything, we're just friends." He said as his cheeks turned red, to which Cassy gave a small giggle.

Yeah, I'll give it a week or two. Cassy responded with more giggles. Ren was embarrassed, but also smiling. Him and Cassy always did these kind of things to each other. "Cassy, what are you doing right now anyways?" He asked. Right now I'm talking to you and your friend. So by the way, Lilith, did you know my brother used to be like a girl magnet, all the girls would try to be with him. It was really funny.

Ren looked to Lilith with a goofy smile and shrugged. Cassy loved to tease him about girls. Although, he would tease her about boys, so it was a back and forth. Sometimes Cassy would bring him out in public, and just to totally embarass him she would act as his girlfriend.

[lil]

Lilith blushed. She wasn't sure if it was because of the compliment, or because she was being entrusted with Cassy's older brother. Either way, she did agree. Ren did seem like a great person. To have Ren set the record straight, to clarify that they were friends helped ease her embarrassment slightly. After all, they had just met. The idea of dating anyone, even the boy she'd hugged at the mall, wasn't quite on her list of things to do so soon.

Lilith kept quiet, hoping that if she did, the two would keep talking to each other. When Cassy said her name again, Lilith smiled slightly again, listening carefully before giggling.

"I can believe it. Some girls at the mall seemed ready to fight just because I was standing beside him.

[/color]" Lilith mused aloud as she glanced at Ren, noticing the smile. Hearing the two talk reminded her of the pictures he'd shared already, while that grin only strengthened the image in her mind.[/blockquote][/blockquote][/size]

Also, Ren can really be unsure, so make sure to help him. He hates bugs though, but it's hilarious when he freaks out over then. Cassy said while giggling hysterically. Ren blushed and smiled happily. He loved chatting with Cassy any way he could. His mood always improved when he talked to his sister.

"Cassy, what are you up to these days?" He asked. Well, I actually called to tell you something important. Cassy said admittingly. Ren could only wonder what she was going to say. That is until he heard what it was. I am working on making my way up to be with you at school.

"Wait, you don't have any powers though. How would you get in?" Ren asked puzzled. He was totally confused at the idea now. You wanna wager? Cassy shot back affectionately. Ren looked very surprised now. He wondered what Cassy had developed to be able to get here.

[lil]

"He was showing me some pictures of you two before. I saw one where you were scaring him with the candy

[/color]" Lilith agreed, amused by the girl's giggling. When she noticed Ren's surprised look at the information given, she jumped in to help the conversation.

"If you're coming here, I can't wait to meet you in person.[/color]" Lilith offered. "Maybe you could come on our next mall trip, too. There's a mall not too far away from the school that's a pretty fun place to hang out.[/color]" And, besides, that's where she met Ren, so she could only guess that he liked going there too. Maybe they could see more of the mall together one day. The food court's food was pretty good, to say the least, so there was that. They could go just for lunch to celebrate her arriving. Or... She could convince Ren to take Cassy without her so they could catch up. That seemed like the better idea, though she didn't say so aloud.[/blockquote][/blockquote][/size]

I hope to see both of you soon! I got to go now, Papi wants me, but I'll talk to you some other time. Bye Lilith, bye Ren! At that the beep signaled she had hung up. Ren blinked dumbfoundedly for a bit, but recovered his state if mind with a shake of his head. He felt very happy now that Cassy was coming hopefully.

"Well, I guess that's it." He said with a shrug. "Want to do anything? Like chat, play games, or whatever else." He asked Lilith, a friendly smile on his face. He wanted to make sure she didn't feel forgotten or left out. He never had the heart to make another feel bad. In truth, he would even help an evil person if they were in deep pain or suffering. He was overall a very sensitive person, with a good heart.

He thought about what life would be like had he not been sent here. He would be home, comfortable, with Cassy, but one thing was not right. He wouldn't have met Lilith at the mall, which made him feel like he was truly lucky to be at this school. He decided that he would be happy with his life as is.

[lil]

"Bye!

[/color]" Lilith offered in reply after Cassy said bye to Ren. She was met by the beep, which left her to assume Cassy didn't hear her. She fell silent after that, her gaze shifting from the phone to Ren.

Lilith shrugged when asked if there was anything she wanted to do.

"We can do whatever you want, Ren,[/color]" Lilith smiled. She wasn't the best at video games, if that's what he meant. And board games, especially monopoly, got boring fast. She could only hope it would be fun if she was playing a game with Ren. As for chatting, she was quite content to do that, and equally happy with anything else he wanted to do. She didn't have anything more pressing to do.[/blockquote][/blockquote][/size]

[ticklicous]

"I feel like chatting, if that's good with you?" He looked at her affectionately. His eyes twinkled with happiness at the idea of more quality chat time. He loved talking with friends that he made once he was close to them. Although, he didn't consider it truly close until he really grew attached.

"So, uhm, have you travelled anywhere interesting? I want to go to Alaska some day to do some dog sledding." He said cheerfully. It seems talking with Cassy had put him into a rather great mood. He always was deeply connected to his little sister. He never could forget her green smiling eyes.

[lil]

"Mhm, perfect,

[/color]" Lilith agreed, content to just sit and talk with Ren.

"No, sorry... I wish. My parents weren't very interested in traveling.[/color]" Lilith answered shyly, slightly embarrassed that she didn't have a story to tell. "But there are places I'd like to see. Alaska sounds nice, but I always dreamed of going to New York.[/color]" Alaska just sounded so cold... While Lilith would enjoy a real Christmas complete with more snow than she'd ever seen before, she wasn't so sure she'd like the harsh temperatures in Alaska.[/blockquote][/blockquote][/size]

Ren nodded in consideration of New York. He had been before, it was for a small show he had put on. "I've actually been to New York, I was there for a drumming exhibition." He said aloud. He remembered the very day, he had apparently done great according to the watchers.

He loved playing the drums, it was stopped about a few years back though. That was when he had joined into the ranks of Ashford's school system. "You have any special talents?" He looked at Lilith, a question covered his face. He hadn't heard of many of her talents really.

[lil]

"Really? I'd love to hear you sometime.

[/color]" Lilith smiled. If he played in New York, he must be really good. Instead of pointing this observation out, she kept it to herself. Surely Ren already knew.

"Talents? Well, I was always very good at sports. I was one of the best pitchers every year I played, I usually got the spot because I threw the most consistently...[/color]" Lilith shrugged, not bothering to make a point of the accomplishments or trophies that were now gathering dust in her room at her father's home.

"And I also was a pretty fast runner, as far as running bases or getting down a soccer field. But I don't play any instruments or anything cool like that.[/color]" Pretty fast was a bit of an understatement. More than anything, Lilith was consistent in her abilities. She didn't have these random moments of great speed, but she could outrun some of the other girls all the time, even if several passed her. She could out pitch them, too, and her 'bad days' were farther between. She had a pleasant demeanor, she put her own problems on hold, and she kept her team together with her kindness and the special attention she offered to each of them.[/blockquote][/blockquote][/size]
