Agie placed Layla on her shoulder and also attempted to get her luggage. Her trunk was real heavy. Agie managed to finally retrieve it. She got a quill and piece of parchment and started scribbling away. When she was finished, Agie handed the note to Lyra. "Here is my address and instructions on how to find me." She winked. "When were you thinking of meeting up? And should we let everyone know now. Have a kind of party...you may say." Agie giggled. Trouble was in her eyes again.

Lyra's eyes grew wide as she arched her brow. "A party? Mmmm...I like that idea," she snickered and continued. "Yes! Let's do tell everyone and have a bit of fun.". Lyra loved Agie's way of thinking. She then placed her directions in her pocket and picked up her trunk to leave.

"So I will see you as soon as possible," she rolled her eyes and looked over to see her dad standing to the side. "I wanted to meet Christian's mum before leaving.". And with that she gave Agie a hug and took hold of one end of her trunk and waited for Christian.

Christian kept his mouth shut all the way to the luggage compartment. Lyra and Agie looked like they still had things to talk about, even though they had the WHOLE way home to talk. Geez woman and their infallible ability to chitchat. They could talk about anything, anywhere.

Christian maneuvered through the mounds of luggage that was piled in the compartment, his eyes sweeping around to find his familiar truck. Pulling it out from underneath and carrying around, his eyes catching Lyra giving Agie a hug. He snuck up behind her shoulder and peered over Lyra's shoulder at the note. "Did I hear something about a party? I like parties, they're..." his brow furrowed as his eyes caught the words on the note.

It wasn't the words them self, that made him pause. It was the style of the handwriting; it was really really familiar.

Lyra giggled as she looked over her shoulder at Christian. "Parties are pretty cool and yes you did hear something about a party," she spoke as she raised a brow, playfully then frowned a bit. "What's wrong? Being a party pooper already are we?" She laughed as she began folding the note and placed it in her pocket.

She then took hold of her trunk and Niko and his cage and turned back to Christian, waiting for him. "You are still going to introduce me to your mother, right? I mean, I would like to meet the person that is responsible for you." She leaned in a bit closer to him. "I might need to have a couple of words with her about...a few things." She began giggling once more as it was becoming easier to hide her emotional state at the moment...but then again, she was with Christian, the one who could almost always make her laugh.

"I thought you might like that idea." She snickered. "So whoever wants to come along to our PARTY let us know." Agie said, raising her voice so everyone could hear.

"Ok!" Agie laughed, glancing over at her mum, she always got impatient waiting for Agie. "Have fun with that." She hugged Lyra back. "I'll see you soon." She grabbed her trunk and started to head to where Kerry was last seen. Agie also had to write a letter to Josh. She wanted to invite him to the party.


Oh! Agie saw Christians face when he saw her writing. She'd have to be careful. Her hand covered her mouth to stop any giggles from escaping.

Christian kept staring at the spot where the note had been in Lyra's hands. There was something nagging him about that writing...something not good. He looked up and eyed Agie; he didn't trust that girl. There was just something about her that made him not really like her all that much and that was saying something! It usually took a lot for Christian to not like someone.

"I'm not being a party pooper," he sniffed. "I was just...thinking about something..." He finally perked up and smiled, "Of course you can still meet her. Wait, talk to her? What do you mean talk to her? Nothing that'll frame me eh? I'll deny it!" He eyed her cautiously, before walking out of the train with her.

"So, who else are you going to invite to this party of yours?"

Lyra placed a hand over her face to keep the embarrassing giggles away. "Sure thing, Agie," she spoke almost as loud as her twin did. A party would be just the thing to have as she wanted terrible to have Josh there as well, but wasn't sure if the situation would be too much to ask for. Lyra reached in for one last hug with Agie and then...'Geez! What's with the...oh just giggles,' she thought to herself as she waved goodbye to Agie.

Her hand flew up to her face once more as she began to giggle at Christian once again. "You are so silly sometimes," she shook her head with a small amount of laughter as he then seemed to perk up a little more. "What were you thinking-" she paused for a moment as she brought on...the serious look...playfully of course. "Deny all you want but I bet your mother could tell some stories on you." She then reached for her trunk while juggling Niko and his cage once again.

"Well, I'm more than sure that you are invited because I'm inviting you," she paused for a moment as she looked up at him and smiled. "And if Mallory ever shows her pretty little face then I would love for you to bring her along too." She looked back down again as she shook her head once more. "I would like to get on the right foot with her. I met her in the hallways once...first time of course...and thought she was a hoot!" Her eyes glanced to his as she smiled.

Christian sighed, "You're trying to pay me back for the time Vindictus let slip stuff about you, aren't you? My mother's usually pretty good at keeping the stories in, but I dunno. She's usually pretty good at storytelling. I think Mallory's heard a few stories about me already," his ears turned a reddish colour.

"Speaking of Mallory, she usually always comes over to my house for a little while in the summer. Our mother's like meeting up. Shopping, tis what they do best." He chuckled, "I'll be sure to drag Mallory along," he paused to listen to the rest of what she had to say. He smiled a dreamy smile, "She defo is one of a kind..."

Lyra began to giggle once more as Christian spoke of that dreadful day with Vindictus. "That was a complete embarrassment...is what that was," she began to mumble the last part to herself. "I mean, come on. I think you were more interested in those cookies than anything else at the moment." If anything at all, it seemed as though Christian was rather enjoying the cookies that Max offered that day in his office, but then again, they were very good indeed.

"Oh I will be happy as a lark if the two of you show up. there is no telling what will happen so I'm more than sure it will be interesting to say the least." Her eyes shifted around as she waited for him to walk towards his mother. Was he ever going to introduce them? Her eyes then flicked over in the direction of where his mother stood, clearly ignoring the fact that her father was now signally for her to join him.

Maya's head snapped up at the mention of her name. There was Alex - he was gorgeous, of course, but apparently he had a girlfriend. She grinned (This grin was pretty enough to knock out 20 models with jealousy. But seriously? No one ever noticed when she did so, so she didn't know either.) and replied, "If good was awesome and awesome was super, I'd be jumping up and down, screaming from joy." She joked, tucking a strand of her blonde hair behind her ear.

Alex smiled at Maya, which he didn't do much, so each smile meant a lot. He grinned back, "Haha." He chuckled at this, "I hardly doubt you are just that." He said simply. He looked quiet concerned, for a cold-hearted guy, what was happening to him!?

He put his hands in his pockets, going for the usual casual look, and looked around, no-one cared about them two anymore. It was just them, all the others were best friends and having fun, the loners made friends, and had fun of their own kind. This was society, and this was the reality Alex was living.

Maya pretended to mock-gasp. "Oh Em Gee, what did you do to Alex Tae and where did you hide him?!" she joked, rolling her eyes. Seriously, normally Alex was so... Hmm. Let's think of an adjective... Well, stoic was one. Yes, let's just go with that.

Alex was running out of conversation topics and Maya could tell easily - just somehting about his pose. "So... What's your plans for the rest of your life?" She asked, raising both eyebrows. I know I'm going to get tortured with touring for the rest of this year. She thought to herself secretly, still smiling although she wished to cry her eyeballs out .

"I killed him." He said in a mutual tone, "Who cares to be honest? I know I don't." He clenched his teeth as she rolled her eyes, she could be so annoying sometimes. "The plans for the rest of my life?" Alex looked at the popular people, "To get revenge, and ... to die." He aid so simply, the fact is he had no spark, none at all. No light, it was all black and all cornered off. " Yourself?" He said with a sigh.

Maya sighed. He was so blunt, it wasn't even funny. "Hmm. Let's see. Does it count as an enjoyable term away from school if all you do is get cramped in a stupid tourbus and get shipped around so you can perform in front of people and make loads of muggle money?" She asked rhetorically, her tone rather bland. She really just wanted to cry right now, and her eyes did glaze over momentarily.

"Look, can we just... Not talk about this? Please?" Maya asked, in a desperate form of ditching. Her life was just... A complete screwed up mess of things right now that she'd rather not talk about.

Alex glared at her, "Well, lets say the obvious. No." He didn't care, he didn't want to care, he just wanted to be left alone. He didn't look at her so see her eyes glaze over, he didn't know of how he was so arrogant, he didn't care as he believed no-one and nothing cared for him.

"Fine." He said simply, he didn't lighten up or anything.

Maya's tears were quickly blinked away, and no tears had spilled. Good. She didn't care to retaliate at him for glaring at her - she wasn't in the mood for another fight. She knew what her friends would tell her if she talked to them about it - You guys are the exact same but so different... She scowled at the memory and shook her head a bit to get rid of the stupid memory.

He was so cold. And she only wanted just someone who would listen. "Fine." She said stubbornly, her eyes narrowing.

"We." Alex simply started, he brushed some hair out his face and looked at her eyes with his blue ones, "Us." He trailed, honestly, he could be cold hearted a lot but he was also kind.


He stopped saying anymore and watched her be stubborn, he was searhing for something in her eyes and it was hard to find.

The stubborn look vanished. "We...?" Maya asked, her eyebrow raised. What the heck was that supposed to mean? And. Oh my god. Blue eyes. Must not hyperventilate. She tore her eyes away from his, slightly annoyed she'd let someone like Alex of all people get her like this.

Maya watched his expression - mild, but curious for some reason. Annoyed, she shook her head. "This is not working out the way it's supposed to, is it?" She asked rhetorically, murmuring.
