Recap: "I'm pretty sure you're just trying to scare me" I say to Kimberly. "Okay sureeee, you're in denial" she teases me.

Ophelia's pov

The time is progressing, and not a single minute spent resting. It's now the next morning, I had 2 hours of sleep, but I'm feeling awake.... although I sure don't look like it. I quickly get to school constantly spacing out, because of the lack of sleep. I enter class anxiously, what if they all remember the occurrence from yesterday?

I assume that they do remember based on the fact that they're staring at me as I enter the classroom . They all start to whisper to each other like if I didn't have eyes and ears. This continues until someone grabs my wrist, and takes me outside the classroom. What's with people and making me think I'm getting kidnapped. "Are you okay? Do you need me to go inside with you" Diego says. "No, I'm fine I need to learn to do things on my own,but thanks." I say while going into the classroom.

*Diego's pov

Ophelia went into the classroom ,and for some reason I stood outside the classroom just thinking about what happened. "Since when did you care" Elliott says while walking by. "Hmm... interesting question, why ask it all of a sudden" I reply. "Look, if you're trying to get back at me, leave her out of it" Elliott says, while going into the classroom.

*Ophelia's pov

As I'm at lunch, a figure approaches.... I flinch as the figure speaks. "Heyy, I never got your name" Diego says loudly. Why can't people tap on my shoulder like a normal person would. "Oh, I'm Ophelia" I respond. "I'm guessing you already know my name, because you know..." he says smirking . Well great way in sounding cocky. I stay silent so, he proceeds to say "Want to go skating with me after school." "I mean sure, why not" I casually say.

School is now over, and I wait in the parking lot for Diego to show up. He didn't specify on exactly what to do. He soon shows up, and we go to the ice skating arena. Is it too late to tell him that I can't skate, ah I'm an idiot. "Hey, you can go on to skating, I'll get us something to drink" Diego says. I nod my head, and start slowly walking to the ice skating rink, with ice skates. As soon as my foot hit the rink, I start to immediately slip and slide everywhere.

I lost control of where I was going , and it's worse when people who already know how to skate bump into you on purpose. I was pushed super hard and fell bumping into someone. "I'm so sor- wait Ophelia is that you?" I look up to see that it's Elliott, ah the irony. "Wait Elliott, what are you doing here??" I say. "My sister, wanted me to take her ice skating, what about you? Are you here by yourself or...??" Elliott responds.

"Oh, yea I'm here with Diego" I say. "Oh" Elliott says bluntly. "OPHELIA, I HAVE THE DRINKS" Diego yells to try to to get my attention. "I should really get going" I respond. When I looked back at Elliott he was already leaving. I go to Diego to drink our drinks, and went back to the ice skating rink. I start getting the hang of ice skating, but I have lots of learning to do. I started to get careless, and lost my balance. I was about to fall until, Elliott grabbed me, which stopped my fall. We both went through a moment of processing what was going on, until a disturbance occurred.

"Ophelia, what's going on?" Diego says. "Well Ophelia was about to fall, and I caught her. Maybe if you were looking after her it wouldn't have happened" Elliott says. Diego looked back at him with envious eyes. Elliott left and went back to his sister. I find it so cute, that he cares about his sister so much, but it's so unfortunate that it seems like Diego, and Elliott don't get along. The rest of the day went normal, and I went home.

After a tiring day, my heart and my head feel at ease with nature at the pond. I sit down, and think about today, and about life itself. He isn't here today at the pond.... I feel empty for some reason. I sit in peace, and feel a warm blanket touch my skin. I feel him sit down next to me. "How is it, you always run into me?" I say. "Me running into you? You're the clumsy one here." Elliott responds. I start laughing and I respond with "Nah, I think we have a stalker here." "The whole world doesn't orbit around you" Elliott sarcastically says. We continue to talk, and that night was filled with laughter.
