And then all of a sudden she was standing right next to him.
Lewis stared at her for a moment, already trying to read something positive into her actions when she...asked how the orb was. SERIOUSLY?! He took another step away from her, to the side and hence a little closer to Arya, a look of hurt flashing across his face. Refusing to look at her any longer, he returned his gaze to the thing Arya had picked up. The orb, was it?
And why was everybody so interested in this little ball thing?!
.........
But somehow he was curious too. Especially because it provided a good enough distraction. Only when Arya held up her hand to show them again, it was empty. Where did it go?! Lewis at first glanced down at the ground again, this being the most logical place for the orb to have disappeared to. Only it wasn't there either.
And why did his hair feel a little bit heavier than before? Did he have like a leave in them or something?
Reaching up without actually paying much attention, Lewis ran a hand through his hair to get rid of whatever made them feel weird. He had been about to turn around to see if the orb was behind him when he froze as his hand closed around...a round object. Was that...? He blinked a couple of times before slowly lowering his hand again, taking the object with him. It WAS the orb.
"A-are you looking for this?" Lewis asked quietly, putting the orb on his palm and showing it to the others. Could somebody please take it? He really didn't like being the center of attention and he also really wanted to leave...curl up in a ball somewhere - no pun intended.
The orb lit up Lewis Rastig's hair until he removed it from its
touchable nest, and then it proceeded to light up his hand. As if knowing how uncomfortable the orb made the boy, the bright ball rocked gently in his palm and then rolled off his hand and down his sleeve.
It
enjoyed making the students behave strangely and feel uncomfortable. Not that orbs could feel, but if this one could, then it would
feel like playing hide-and-seek right now.
