I was distracted from Axl by a huge hand reaching over from the other side of Larissa, resting behind her seat. Rone. I wondered if they were going to step forward from the will-they-won’t-they thing they’d been rocking for the last two years. I hoped they would, because the spark between them was strong. Gods knew neither of them had been able to extinguish it, no matter how hard they tried.
Asher, was on my other side, lazily playing with my hand, brushing his fingertips over it. His eyes were unfocused, gazed off into the distance, and I wondered if I could push into his thoughts and tune in on what had him so distracted. We’d experimented with it yesterday, but the moment I tried to actively hear his thoughts, I got nothing but a solid wall.
We were missing something, and I made another mental note to try and get in touch with one of the supes who might help. Jessa and Braxton might be out though if they were in Faerie, visiting the dragons.
As students started to move around us, I realized the assembly was over and I’d missed ninety percent of what was said. Hopefully Larissa wouldn’t quiz me on how many students were here this year. Ilia shot a smirk in my direction, like she’d had the same thought.
“What’s your first subject today?” she asked, pushing past a few students to reach my side. We followed the crowds out the door.
Reaching into my satchel, I pulled out the ever-changing magical schedule. We looked it over together.
