AFTER I RETURNED TO the others, Charlotte helped us to practice ‘Energy meditation’.

Which appeared to just be regular meditation, except with focusing on your magic instead of your breathing or whatever.

The thing was, meditation was boring.

Like, really boring.

Like, ‘I would rather claw my skin off than sit here a moment longer,’ kind of boring.

And it didn’t help that my magic was restless, too. The part of it tied to nature made it bouncy and volatile.

I suppressed a groan as we continued to sit, in silence, as I was supposed to be taking deep breaths to calm the flow of magic.

There was nothing ‘calm’ about the electric hum within me, and I knew if Lena or Willow had been there, they probably could have helped.

But no, neither Charlotte nor Natalie had elemental magic.

Or ADHD.

I opened my eyes to see both of them sitting still and serene.

I was fidgeting with the buckles on my armour, the rhythmic clicking of the buckle the only thing keeping me even vaguely sane.

With my eyes open, I was the first one to see Lauren approach, my already restless Energy crackling just under my skin.

I wanted to tell her to fuck off before she got anywhere close to my friends.

But I focused the last of my self-control on not doing that, knowing full-well that Dana would take Lauren’s side if it came to an argument.

Natalie hadn’t said as much the day before, but I knew that, in her shoes, that would have stung just as much, if not more, than Lauren’s words.

No, drawing attention was the last thing we needed.

But I didn’t know how else to get rid of Lauren.

If she had buttons to push, I’d focus on them, but she was so confident, I hadn’t sensed any weakness to zero in on.

Of course, even if I could, while this was a sound strategy, it also presumed that I could pull off a subtle game of jabs without just losing my patience and yelling.

Which was not my experience...

I’d never been good at dealing with bullies. I wore my heart on my sleeve, and it made it all too easy for them to realise that the way to beat me was to just wind me up until I snapped.

Something that didn’t take very long.

I could see that Lauren was doing the same thing to Natalie now, but... I’d only ever made things worse for myself by speaking up.

I didn’t want to do that to Natalie.

“Having fun?” Lauren asked as she approached, breaking both Charlotte and Natalie out of their concentration.

Charlotte glared at her, while Natalie had a slight crease in her brow.

“Meditation is not intended as a form of entertainment,” Charlotte said, her voice a little more formal than usual, making her sound like a professor. “It is intended to aid in channelling magical Energy.”

“Which is why I never bother, and why Amelia looks bored out of her mind.”

My cheeks flushed red in frustration. Yes, I had been bored, but that didn’t mean that the technique was bad. I was just bad at focusing like this.
