Lying was something Ashley just could not stand, but it was also something that was very hard for her to pick out. Unless it was blatantly obvious that you were lying to her, she would believe you. This was her mantra: I’ll see the good in everyone until they show me the bad. As you can probably tell, she’s a pretty happy go lucky girl. She’s not the kind you usually find frowning, or getting into fights. She’s the girl you’ll find with her friends making them smile, or with that girl who just got dumped trying to cheer her up. Ashley could never play cupid, but she could play the support. She didn’t like seeing other people upset so she made it her duty to make sure they smiled. Ashley was rather good at making people smile, but she found she got caught playing messenger way to often. That was what she was doing today... playing messenger.

Ashley sighed as she stared at the earth girl in front of her and furrowed her brow. ”You sure? I mean... You really loved his sweater.”

[/color] She said trying to think of other ways she wouldn’t have to face someone else’s ex-boyfriend. The girl in front of her just nodded with a pained smile on her face. ”It’ll keep reminded me of him and... I don’t want that.” She said obviously trying to hide the fresh wounds of a broken heart. Ashley wasn’t even sure why this boy had dumped her. Ashley knew she had spent a lot of her time with her friend consoling her, and eventually getting her to laugh again. She knew there was someone better out there for her, but Ashley thought that her and her boyfriend had been really cute together. She wondered why these things just didn’t work out? Her optimism and need to see the good blinded her from any bad either of the now separated couple might have.

Ashley said her goodbye as she shoved the sweater in her Gir backpack. Her face was scowling as she braved the snowy landscape outside. God, she did not like the snow. Winter was a cold, dead, month where nothing grew. It was a power block and a mood block... well at least until someone started a snowball fight, or started making snow angels. Then it went from dreary to fun really fast. She was told that he’d be in the library, it’s where he went to flirt with those girls that were kind of geeky and had a low self-esteem. Ashley had questioned her friend about it, but she ahd just shook her head and let the questions hang.

Ashley got the library and she shivered. It was a lot warmer in the library than it was outside and Ashley was extremely thankful for it. Sighing, she took the sweater out of her bag and looked at it. It was big, looked warm, and had a hood. She already knew it smelt like a cologne that she liked, it bugged her to no extent that she’d be giving this back to someone who didn’t deserve it. Why give back something that was already given to you? That’s like giving someone you a cookie, you eat it, then decide to give it back... but that was a really bad analogy on Ash’s part.

Ashley looked around for her friend Ex, but couldn’t find him. Maybe he just wasn’t in the library today. It would be just her luck that she had a message to deliver but couldn’t find the person she was delivering it too. She felt herself sigh and just shake her head. If she couldn’t find the guy she was supposed to deliver the sweater to by the end of the day, she was just going to keep it. Not because she wanted to do something that could be considered kind of selfish, but because the sweater smelt good, and she could wear it when it got really cold outside. She made her way over to a seat in the library and just put the sweater down in front of her. She was just going to lean back, relax, and keep her eye out for anyone who even matched the description of her friends ex. She had seen them together a few times, enough to think they were cute, but not long enough to remember his face... only enough to be able to place him from her friends description.

Gabriel looked around the grounds of the campus, and was not thrilled with the snow and cold weather. Why on earth would these people make a school in the middle of nowhere Canada. Gabriel didn’t even like Canada, but he knew he could’ve left after high school, but he hadn’t. Strange as it was, Gabriel did sort of enjoy the solitude the school had to offer. It wasn’t like some normal person would accidentally stumble across the school. It was really out there, so he supposed that was another plus. With that thought, Gabriel took a final drag to his cigarette, threw it to the ground, and stomped it out. He started his walk towards the library to look for a certain book for his report. Gabriel managed to surprise a lot of people with his intelligence; it wasn’t something he liked to let people know. It was something that felt more like a hobby for him that anything else. Gabriel liked to keep his unruly reputation the way it was; untarnished by the fact that he was somewhat intelligent.

As he walked into the library, Gabriel took off his jacket, and let the warmth of the library fill him. He smoothed his hair over to the side, and made his way towards the back. He set his things down on an empty table, then went on a hunt for the right book. It was like a manhunt for a book that was suppose to tell him about something he could care less about. Gabriel let his mind wander while he searched for the book. He started to think of home, and how he wished he could go back for a moment. Not so much for his parents, but for Ms. Emily. He wasn’t sure why he started to think about her, but he was. He hadn’t spoken to her in years, not since he had come to the academy. Gabriel didn’t have much contact with anyone back home anymore. It seemed easier that way for him; to just cut ties with everyone and anyone. When he was done with the academy, Gabriel wasn’t sure where he’d go or what he’d do. Everything was just so complicated for him. He wished it was simple, and that he didn’t have to pick something.

He knew that it wasn’t an option though. Simple just wasn’t for Gabriel anymore. As much as he wished for simple life, it just wasn’t as fun as a complicated one. He was sure that if someone was able to get into his head, they’d think he was crazy. It would explain so much really. Gabriel snapped out of his haze though when he finally found the book he was looking for. He pulled it off the shelf, and started to walk back towards the table his stuff was at. Gabriel felt the rush of cold air as the door opened, and a girl walked in looking a tad bit lost. Gabriel shrugged, and walked toward his table, and sat down. He cracked open the book, and started to read, but quickly became bored. Gabe looked up, and let his blue eyes wander around the room, and spotted the same girl. She seemed to be looking for someone, but Gabriel was not in the mood to help anyone today. That made him sound like he helped people all the time, which was not the case.

Gabriel didn’t like people. Especially the ones that bugged him all the time; that would explain why he was such a loner. To Gabriel, everyone was clingy, and always bothered him. He glanced back down at the book, and knew that he wasn’t going to get anything done, so he closed the book. He stuffed it into his bag, and stood up to put his jacket back on. He grabbed his bag, and started towards the door. He looked down as he was trying to zip up his jacket, and felt as he bumped into someone or someone bumped into him. ''Sorry, '' Gabriel mumbled as he looked up. It was that girl. Again.
