Aiden lay at the edge of the lake. He had been here a month and still didn't know anybody. For the first time in his life he had celebrated his birthday by himself. None of his orphanage friends, nobody. He had tried to make friends with people, but they all seemed so intent in their studies that they ignored him. He lay there, by himself, waiting to see what would happen.

Jenn walked alone, at peace for once. She glanced around before heading toward the lake. She caught a small glimpse of someone sat alone, looking miserable. She couldn't sense his emotion or anything amazing... she was just reading his posture.
She headed over, brushing her hair from her face. "Hey..." she smiled, settling near the boy.

"Oh." He said surprisedly as he opened his eyes. "I think I've seen you around, in classes, ya know?" he said. "Name's Aiden, what's your's?"

"Jennifer..." Jenn smiled. "Nice name by the way...." She glanced over at him, careful to guard what she thought... maybe the boy could read thoughts... and that would not be good. She smiled again. "What you doing out here all alone?"

"COntemplating life" He replied quickly. "I like your wings." He said awkwardly.

Jenn smiled softly. "These?" she asked, smirking a little. "They aren't that good compared to Angel's.... my sister's." She extended her wings, showing them off. "Of course they are a lot easier to hide away...."

"Yeah... I suppose." He smirked. "Ever feel like you're the only person like yourself? You know, unique?" he said with a slight smile on his face.

"Never..." Jenn laughed. "I have a sister...." She shrugged. "Angel's kinda unique..." She paused, catching sight of something far off. "Oh hell..." she whispered. "Not now Andy..." It was her guide in the spirit world, which generally meant she was dragged away.

"What?" he asked, not quite knowing what was going on...

"Huh?" Jenn asked, snapping back into herself. "Oh.... nothing..." she lied quickly. "Nothing..."

"Ahh." Aiden replied. "So, what is it you enjoy doing in your spare time?" Aiden asked, trying to boost a conversation.

"Reading, writing.... flying." Jennifer laughed. "How about you? You get up to much in your spare time here?"

"Heh." was all he replied. He pointed out to the water, and there was a strain to it. Ice started to snake across the surface and a nearly perfect mannequin of himself appeared. He strained some more and it bowed in greeting.

"Wow..." Jenn smiled. "That's awesome...."
((sorry total mind-block))

"Yeah... Found out I'm the only one around here that can do that." He said. The mannequin melted as he began talking. "Need absolute concentration to keep it up though." He replied.
