Talon squinted as the sun blinded him hurting his eyes. Kevin had sprawled all over the grass a stack of papers
“So. You need to choose a club you will sign up for after school activities”
Talon was shuffling his cards casually as he stared at nowhere
“I am on the baseball school team. Eddie here is on the swimming club. Interested in any”
Talon wasn’t paying attention so he didn’t reply. Kevin took the that as a no as he kept looking through the forms
“Well we still have time”
Talon stopped shuffling and pulled his deck aside burying his face in his hands
Kevin patted his back” you alright dude?”
Talon stayed still. Uncomfortably still.
Kevin shook him and talon fell down on the ground which caused Kevin to panic
“Shit dude what’s wrong?”
Eddie Ramon was making his way towards them when he saw a very unhealthy looking collapsed Blue haired boy
Talon
“Hey what’s wrong with him?”
Kevin tried to gather talon by his arms which he did easily”he just fainted I think”
Eddie frowned and looked at his friend. Sometimes kevins stupidity drove Eddie crazy and he just wanted to rip those dreads out of his head
“Then take him to the infirmary?”
“How?”
Eddie scoffed
“Carry him on your shoulders man. The guy is half your weight. Won’t be hard”
“Dude that’s gay”
“Dude he fainted”
There was a pause.
They settled with carrying talon by having each of his arms wrapped around their neck as they took him to the infirmary
The received numerous curious glances
“Fuck you”
Spat Eddie
“Next time I’ll carry him on my shoulders”
Said Kevin
“Wise of you”
Down the hallway behind the headmasters door the air was thick filled with fury
Before the headmaster was seated Cadis Etrama with his parents on each side
Cadis brows were tilted up naturally just like his lips were always drawn down wards. A face that expressed no emotion. Indifferent
“Listen Cadis in this school we really want to make sure our students are feeling alright”
“So kicking me out of art club is what will help me?”
He coldly spat his mother clenching her bicep. He knew she was holding her hands back from slapping him
“We aren’t kicking you out. But All sessions with our school’s therapist Christopher are after school hours”
“So you will sign me up there?”
“Cadis, son, I will not have you do drugs and skip classes all for the sake of art!”
His fathers voice rang in the room and Cadis merely twisted a few strands of his hair in his acrylic stained fingers looking sideways where his fathers cold grey eyes looked back at him
Cadis inherited every detail of his appearance on his face. He was lucky.
“So there’s nothing I can do to prevent these sessions?”
The head master shook her hand passing him the paper that had his name written down signed up for therapy sessions
Both his parents eagerly signed and passed him the paper.
There was no way to undo what was written. So he would have to find a way around the problem
Cadis could not risk losing art class
He didn’t like his reputation sinking either

Talon woke up to the faint sound of murmurs. He opened his eyes and looked at this surroundings. Everything was white
He immediately sat up and looked at his wrist the were covered by the sleeves of his khaki jacket
He rolled one up carefully and saw that the bandages were still there. He sighed in relief
He figured he was carried to the school’s infirmary so he was at ease knowing they hadn’t checked his wrists.
He covered the dirty bandages and laid back on the hard bedding causing the sheets to rustle beneath him
Paper sheets.
What the fuck
He heard a woman’s voice talking to another girl. Then footsteps, a door opening and then closing again.
Few seconds later the door repeated the same noise this time however the steps were heavier and the doctors voice seemed to rise up a few cords.
She seemed happy as she chirped “good afternoon Christopher”
“Good afternoon” the man replied in a very low mature voice that brought chills down Talons spine
He carefully got up and tip toed all the way to the curtains drawing them slightly apart to see who was talking
“I heard you have a new students signed for therapy sessions?”
“Yes. Some kind of Cadis. Never saw him”
So he was a psychologist. The school’s therapist. Talon really couldn’t seem to get a good view from his position but for some reason he really didn’t want to be seen by the two
“Oh sorry I wouldn’t know. I guess you’ll be busy from now on”
The man chuckled. A raw chuckle that Talon liked. It reminded him of Dax
“Aren’t I always?”
He heard the doctor giggle and that brought tingles of jealousy to rise up in his chest.
“Anyway I just came to get some of my papers from here and my clip board”
“Oh of corse!”
The female doctor said. He heard the teacher roll backwards as she got up and then shuffling through some drawers
Few minutes later she was done
“Here”
The therapist let out a small sound that must have been a thank you
The door opened and closed again and Talon counted to 10. He only reached 5 afraid he wouldn’t manage to catch the therapist if he were too late
He walked out of the curtains and the female doctor looked at him with a smile
“Feeling better?”
Talon nodded eagerly
“Well classes are almost over so you can go”
“Id rather stay for the last lecture”
The doctor nodded and Talon walked to the door. However it was open before he managed to grab the handle
A thin tall boy cloaked in black clothing walked in as the scent of smoke and ocean oozed out of him
Talon took only a second to appreciate the boys black thin hair as he walked out in the hallways looking around to find The therapist.
Christopher.
He would Ask Kevin about him tomorrow morning
