Chapter 10 - Henry and Bennett

The moment after I said that, the first person, after us, showed up. We stumbled apart and stood up. Of course, it was just our luck that it was Bennett Amastacia. He looked back and forth between me and Henry. And then walked right over to me, smiling.

"Hey Lucille. I thought I told you it was smart to stay away from the Celeborn family." He gave Henry a side look that was so harsh, even I could feel it.

"Yeah, hey Bennett. And I thought I told you I don't listen to other people. I make my own decisions." I make the choice to grab Henry's hand in my own and both Bennett and Henry and even myself look surprised.

"Yeah, back off." Henry finally stands up for us.

By then, more people have arrived, because its 7:55 and school starts in 5 minutes. There are enough people around that it is not a good idea to start a fight, so Bennett blends into the crowd and leaves me and Henry alone.

"Why did you grab my hand like that?" Henry asks me. I stare at him in confusion, really just thinking, what really goes through this mans mind, and then I remember I can go into his mind and see. So I fade from this world and go into his mind. I see confusion for what I am, like for me even if he doesn't know what I am and finally confusion for what we are together. I exit his mind to feel him shaking me, trying to get my attention.

"Lucille, did you go into my mind again?"

"Yes why?"

He scoffs and looks to me. "You realize that is totally dangerous right? Why did you go in this time?"

"Umm no reason. Other than the fact that I wanted to see what was going on in your head." I say, looking away and looking sheepish.

"Lucille! If you go into my mind again and no one is around, then you can get stuck in there."
