I had a terrible dream. In my dream my friend crashed a plane, and people were injured and a woman died, and it was all Jason's fault.

It wasn't a dream. I find myself staring right up at Jason, who looks way too happy, if you ask me. "Murderer," I snarl as I sit up, shoving him away from me. "You're a murderer!" The ground under my butt cracks--okay, probably should have put that a different way--ANYWAY! I get to my feet and glower at the boy that killed a poor defenseless woman. "HOW COULD YOU?" I bellow.

"I FIXED HER AFTERWARDS!" he bellows right back.

"Wait, what?"

"I fixed her. I healed her. Come on, Noelle, I didn't mean for anyone to get hurt! I'm--it was--" he hesitates, looking away from me. There's something he's hiding from me, and I don't like it.

"Spit it out, Jason," I say, putting my hands on my hips and glaring at him. "Because I'm still doubting that we can be friends."

"Yeah? Not nearly as much as I am," he mutters, not looking at me.

"Oh, so that's how you feel," I say, feeling as if he'd slapped me. "Don't want to be friends with the 'princess'. You've been saying that all along, I can't believe I didn't listen to you!"

"Noelle--" he starts out in a frustrated tone. "Don't--"

"Don't what? I'm just finally listening--you're a BAD GUY, and you'd probably just USE me for something in the future, playing on my stupid naive idea that we can be friends!" I stomp my foot like a child, barely noticing the hole in the ground that it leaves. "You're probably lying about healing her--"

"I. Am. NOT LYING!" he bellows, jumping to his feet. The ground starts to shake and rocks shoot up all around him. "And nobody will ever be able to use you for ANYTHING because you NEVER LISTEN!"

"Well I'm listening now, and you're not saying anything I care to hear," I snarl before turning and racing away at top speed. I don't want to deal with him right now!
