“Hey there. Shouldn’t you be with the others over there? Seeing how they normally flock towards pretty girls, eh? I’m sure they’d just eat you up” She heard the voice before she realised the boy had sat down next to her.
“Oh...ummm... I’m not- I mean, thank you I guess” stammered Cassandra, blushing like a tomato. She hated compliments, she always got really embarrassed and then her blushing made her even more embarrassed. It was a vicious cycle. To give herself a moment to compose herself, she examined the boy. She could only just see his symbol poking out from under his grey fringe; he was a Lucen, cool. She wished her second element was Lucen, it would go much better with Viper than Elpis does.
Now she had recovered, and her face had gone (mostly) back to its normal colour she said “I’m Cassandra” and gave a slight smile. She was surprised someone had wanted to speak to her; she wasn’t used to meeting new people but had assumed they usually gravitated towards the most popular looking crowd.
