Fallon enjoyed the quiet of the very early morning of a sunday. 5am and i'm up and ready to go...Swimming it is. She thought to herself and sneaked out of her room with a hot pink bikini (profile bikini) and a super baggy hoodie with some sneakers on. Going into the locker room, she peeled off her hoodie and saw a punching bag which caused a smirk to form on her face. She began kicking and punching it, letting out all of her week's frustration and anger. The pool sparkled in the rising sun and she kicked off her sneakers as she gradually got closer to the pool. Tying her hair up, Fallon got onto her tiptoes, arched her body and dived into the water.

The cold rush of the water did nothing to her already ice cold body and she began doing laps. After about an hour, Fallon climbed out of the water and wrapped a towel around her body. The corners of the pool had parts of ice but the moment she left, it steamed and went back to normal. Laying down on one of the sun beds, she breathed deeply in attempts to control her powers. Her thoughts went on a tangent and she stared at the water, not paying attention to anything around her. She began to sing.

''And I told you to be patient,
And I told you to be fine,
And I told you to be balanced,
And I told you to be kind,
And in the morning I'll be with you,
But it will be a different kind,
'Cause I'll be holding all the tickets,
And you'll be owning all the fines.''


Her soft voice echoed in the room and she held her knees closer to her chest as she just got lost in her thoughts. She hoped not to get bothered by the people who constantly pushed her around but deep inside, she wished she had someone to talk to.

No classes, his assignments were all done, he already read ahead in the text's. The only thing left to do was be bored. Wait, he was bored not that long ago wasn't he? Maybe he could go find and bother Kronos. Or maybe he could actually go swimming for a change! He walked over to his dresser, and from the bottom drawer he took out a "Shire-High swim team". He had no idea how he had it, or why he had it, but hey it looked good!

    Making his way to the pool he kept a towel on him, as well as his usual black "tough guy gear" hidden under there. He made it to the pool, and there was no swimming class today! Silus chuckled as he plopped his gear in a locker before walking out and diving right in. The cold water felt like needles, but the adrenalin rush he got was enough to make it all better. His head popped up above the water and he laughed as he shook his head, spraying the area like he were a dog. He immediately took off, doing laps for the hell of it. If only he could remember being the best swimmer at his human school he might have understood his love for water better. But for now he just enjoyed it, stopping to pant as he clung onto the side.

Fallon had her eyes closed when she heard the familiar splash of someone diving. Her gold eyes snapped open and she frowned, seeing Silus.  6am and he's here. Either it's a coincidence or he's a stalker. She thought to herself. As he shook his head like a dog, she couldn't help but laugh lightly. He clung to the sides which caused Fallon's lips to form a cheeky smile. Crawling towards him, she made sure to stop right in front of him and whisper into his ear. ''Boo..'' She laughed wholeheartedly. 

Fallon seemed more confident alone than at the crowded parts of the institute. Tilting her head at Silus, she stares at him with her odd eyes and smiled. ''Hello Silus...Hope i ain't interrupting?'' She said with a raise of her eyebrow whilst she bit her bottom lip. Laying on her stomach, she rested her head on her hands, still staring at him curiously.

"Boo"

"God!" Silus shot back as he started laughing. He forced his eyes shut to prevent anyone form seeing them, knowing exactly what the shock factor was going to do to him. Whenever he was surprised, his eyes would light up green like a Christmas tree. He plunged himself into the water and slowly exhaled bubbles into the water. One...two...three...four...five... With that he surfaced and took a breath in, chuckling. His eyes opened, and they were back to their original color. He saw none other than Fallon laying there. How did she get the drop on him?

''Hello Silus...Hope i ain't interrupting?'' She had asked him, doing her thing. Silus had one eye narrowed to try and keep the sun out, but he was still smiling.

   "No, not-not at all ehehe. How long have you been here?" He asked her as he returned to leaning onto the side, looking right at her still wearing his usual smirk.

Fallon giggled at his reaction but then watched as he went down. Her brow furrowed, seeing his eyes were clenched shut. Must be something to do with his powers...She thought to herself and grinned when he came back up. He was squinting with one eye and she giggled, lifting her hand. A shadow cast on his eyes, blocking the sun and she glanced at him with a grin. Laughing some more, Fallon stared at him glad she had a swim before or her pathokinesis would be a livewire. ''Since 5 am...'' She admitted with a shrug. Rolling onto her back, her hair hung off the edge right next to where he was leaning with a bright smile. Her golden eyes were looking him over quickly and her smile grew. ''What brings you here so early, Silus?'' She asked, voice gentle but filled with curiosity.

"Well Fal, normally when people come to a pool they want to swim." He teased her jokingly. He shook his head and sighed. "Eh- Well honestly I didn't exactly sleep well so...I was up and I was bored. I came to swim 'cuz it's the best feeling in the world." Silus said. He yawned, and moved off to the side a bit, turning around and pushing his palms against the ground. He pushed himself out and scooted back, sitting himself on the ground next to Fallon. He leaned forward and ran his hands down his hair and got the excess water off his head. He looked over at his towel. "Meh" He said as he determined that the fluffy warmth of the towel was too far away. He could air-dry for all he cared at the moment.

     "So how about you, I'm sure you didn't come here at 5 in the mornin' to scare me did ya?" He asked her, attempting to continue the conversation.

Fallon rolled her eyes and laughed as he called her 'Fal'. She liked it. It was new. ''Well when some people come to pool, it's to sometimes push people in.'' She winked teasingly. Listening to his words, she nodded understanding completely. ''I do love swimming.'' She admitted softly, staring at the water with a smile. Silus moved and sat next to her which caused her smile to grow. 

His 'Meh' met her ears and caught him staring at a towel but seemed to give up getting it. Using her foot, she used it to pull her spare one closer towards her and she placed it on his head. ''There you go, lazy!'' Fallon told him teasingly. Tensing at his question, she moved a little and smirked, resting her head on his lap. Her powers were weakened slightly by the water and was thankful for that or she wouldn't have a comfy pillow such as Silus' lap. ''No i didn't come out here to scare you seeing as i was here before you and my powers don't let me see the future. I don't sleep so i spend most of my time in my room drawing and singing so...i decided to change that and go swimming before any people wake up.'' She told him with a shrug and let her hand hang over the edge of the pool, touching the water causing it to freeze and then steam.

She must have picked up on his laziness, because she soon plopped a towel on his wet head. He looked down at her with an arched eyebrow and a semi-smirk. She even said something about him being lazy, which only made him chuckle. She didn’t know the half of it! ”Thanks.” He said as he rubbed his face into the towel, and began drying the rest of himself off. He was very careful to keep the tattoos on his arm covered.

Suddenly he felt a strange sensation on his lap. The same sensation you get when you’re walking on your les that have been asleep FOREVER! He looked down to find that the culprit was none other than Fallon herself. Silus would have said something, but he had recalled when the other mutants had tried to knock the books out of her hands...and when they laughed at her. He could make an exception…just this once. No matter how much of a “Tough Guy” reputation Silus had, he was still a good-natured guy. He just needed to make sure no one else knew he was a softie. He noticed her hand trailing down to the water, touching and freezing it before it turned directly to steam. That is one MEAN mutation Silus definitely didn't want on the wrong end of.

”Huh…nifty.” He said as he lifted his feet out of the water, before any form of frost could get to them. He still felt odd abut someone he barely knew putting their head on his lap as he’s sitting there in a high-school swim team suit. He also began to wonder if that odd feeling was her, maybe she couldn‘t control her mutation, or maybe she couldn‘t help it. After a couple seconds of silence he spoke again. ”So…how’d-ja get roped into Inner Mind AND Biology?” He asked aiming on making causal conversation.

Fallon shrugged off his thanks with a smile. "No need to thank. Just being nice." She always seemed to blush when someone said thanks and now was no exception. Her cheeks turned a rosy pink and she simply smiled. Seeing the odd look on his face when she placed her head on his lap, she giggled and smirked. "Hope ya don't mind, 'tough guy'." Fallon had overheard someone guys and even girls talk about Silus. Quiet and the girls classed him as the bad boy. Idiots. He's just a big old' softie. She thought to herself and grinned wildly as if he knew what she was thinking.

Fallon stared at the water as he comments on how power. "I suppose so...It's a pain. I can't really touch people 'cause of it but if I keep distracted and am touching water, the fire in me is weaker. I just feel cold to people all the time. Froze someone on my first day here..." She admitted with a smirk. The silence felt nice, comfortable even and she looked up at him when he asked the question. "Guidence counsler thought Inner mind would be a good idea to control another one of my powers...Biology simply because they think it'll jog some memories of my school time and 'cause I enjoy it." Fallon replied. "How 'bout you? Two classes with me and you're not hating me? Kind of a shocker. Unless you're stalking me." She teased with a wink and smirk.

Not being able to touch people huh? Definitely explains the whole head in lap thing. But when she put the emphasis on 'tough guy' it made him cringe a little. It's not bad that she knows otherwise, but it's bad if other people, who already have it out for him figured it out. She was dealing with a lot though, especially when touching someone accidentally freezes them. Silus didn't let it show in any way, but at that moment he felt even more uncomfortable with her face being on him. He didn't feel all that uncomfortable for long, he knew he just had to trust her...so he did...for better or (hopefully not) worse.

"How 'bout you? Two classes with me and you're not hating me? Kind of a shocker. Unless you're stalking me." She was teasing him obviously, but the wink she threw in was a bit of a shock. She wasn't exactly shy anymore now was she? Silus began laughing.

"Whaaaat? No! Are you kidding me? No I'm not stalking you...I'm stalking Freddy, the kid with the antlers" He said. He looked down to her and bobbed his head to the right and left as he rolled his eyes. "Well...that'll only last until hunting season...ask me again later, I might stalk ya then." He teased her, though he did look to the water for a moment.

"Nope...don't hate ya yet." He said as he cupped the water in his hand and poured some out onto her head, chuckling a little with a teasing smirk. "Bet YOU hate me now though hehe." he snickered as he watched her reaction.

Fallon looked up at him, grinning whilst he had his little moment of silence. Coming to the conclusion that he may be feeling uncomfortable, she bit her lip hard. ''You know i won't hurt ya...You can trust me.'' She reassured him. Hearing his laugh, Fallon grinned and giggled at his words. ''I'm not sure if i should be scared at the fact you may stalk me later?'' She laughed lightly, staring up at the ceiling.

Whilst he stared at the water, she touched it and a thin line of frost danced around her finger. ''I'm glad you don't hate me...'' She admitted and then frowned when he cupped the water. Feeling the cold droplets land on her forehead, she squealed and shot up from his lap. ''SILUS!'' She shouted and then smirked, looking back at him. ''Hate you? Nah.'' She then dived into the water and turned around, facing Silus with a devious and cheeky grin. Moving her hands towards him, Fallon splashed water on him giggling.

Silus forced his eyes shut and smiled as the water flew towards him. He was partially expecting it to freeze, or steam. When it didn't turn into either of those things, he sighed knowing that his face was splashed with the semi-cold water. He just shook his head and wiped his eyes, glaring right at her.

"Oh that's it!" He said, pushing off the side of the pool, throwing himself in and he started to walk towards her through the water. Within a couple steps he lurched forward and started swimming towards her. He stopped mid stoke on his way and began to float in place as he began to look around. He couldn't shake the though that someone was around, not that it mattered really, but it was still unnerving to think that someone was lurking around. He shook his head and the uneasy feeling went away. Was his paranoia picking up maybe? He looked back to Fallon and shook his head, forcing an arm out to splash her. "I'll let ya off this time." he said with a chuckle. He leaned back and started to float on his back. "I'm too lazy to chase you...I'm gonna float menacingly." he laughed. He began to float, floating right past her with a smrik.

"Rawr...." he said lamely as he floated past her.

Fallon stuck her tongue out at him and watched as he began walking closer towards her. Stepping back, she smirked and then frowned as he looked around. Going underwater just as he aimed to splash her, she shot back up with a gasp of air and smirked. ''This time? Damn...'' Giggling, she floated on her back also and sighed. ''Are all guys lazy or just the 'tough guy' ones?'' Fallon mused before doing a handstand. Kicking her feet causing waves in the water, she went back to floating.

Silus floated past her and she laughed at his lame rawr. Rolling her eyes, she lifted her hand out of the water and waved it slowly causing what looked like snow to fall. As they hit the water, they steamed and she bit her lip, smiling.

"Nah, this is a special trait that only I got." He said, hoping he understood the question as well as he thought he had.

He could just barely understand her question, his ears being under the water lightly made it hard to understand. He thought she asked if all guys were lazy, or just him. He very well couldn't speak for everyone else, but as far as he went he was pretty lazy when he had down time, probably because life was always hustle and bustle. He let out a relaxed sigh when he felt something cold fall onto his cheek, his eyes shot open and he saw snow falling, evaporating into steam as they hit the pool and the surrounding floor.

"You're just full of surprises eh?" Silus asked as he lifted his head out of the water and looked around for her, slowly twisting in the water to stand up. He arched an eyebrow with a smirk and shook his head. "You're something else." he chuckled as he looked around. It was pretty impressive that she was able to do this, though he would have preferred rain or something else. Snow wasn't exactly his favorite...it reminded him of Christmas, the most annoying time of the year. He didn't let his dislike for the snow show though, mostly because it didn't seem to stay long.

Fallon laughed, smiling brightly. ''Interesting..what other special traits do you have?'' She inquires with a raise of her eyebrow. Watching him react to the snow, she grins brightly. ''Nah not full of them...In some ways, i'm quite predictable but i never let anyone know me long enough to get to that point.'' Fallon admitted with a wave of her hand. Tilting her head at him as he arched his brow and shook his head, she blushed at his words. 

Going underwater, she shot back up again and brushed her hair back in the process. ''How am i? Something else...that's an odd thing to be called.'' Fallon said softly. So used to being called Freak and Mute that being called Something else is the oddest. He probably thinks i'm weird now. Oh shit. She thought to herself and began slowly twirling in the water watching as snow only fell on her skin and steamed. Stopping near the edge of the pool, she played with a small puddle on the side making it freeze.

"You're just weird I guess. I mean...you're nothing like the people I'm used to. You're smart, you're pretty funny and you've got one of the most hardcore powers I've ever seen. There's no way in the world ANYONE should be doing the stuff they are to you...but you let them get away with it." He said, a smile, his mouth open to speak again but just mouth just remained ajar for a second as he chuckled. "You're just...a better person than I'm used to meeting. That's all." He concluded smiling a little. She was a better person than he was, that's for sure. If he had a power like that he'd be causing havoc all over the damn school if anyone even looked at him cross-ways. He already did that and his power wasn't even nearly as cool at that. He folded his arms and leaned back against the wall of the pool that same up to his waist. He chuckled a little and looked at Fallon.

    "Don't ever let anyone over walk on you. Seriously. When they push you, you should push back, when they glare at you then put a fire under their sorry butts." He said with a little laugh. "When they call you something like "Freak" or whatever you look at them and say "Damn right!" You are a nice person in a world of idiots and that makes you a freak, Heck I'm a freak. It's a compliment there's few of us, ya' know?" He asked, still smiling at her. He laughed and for the first time in a little while he was actually connecting to someone else...though he wasn't sure how that was going. He wasn't exactly popular for his ability to make friends.

Fallon blushed deeply and looked away with a furrow of her brow. ''Hardcore power? You really think so?'' She muttered with a shy smile. ''Of course i let them get away with it. There's no point making them madder. It's just a game to them and i ain't willing to play.'' She admitted with a shrug. ''They're pathetic, Silus...You're a good person ya know. Most people avoid me at all costs yet you stay and talk to me. No one really talks to me...'' She said, staring at the water.

''Thanks Silus...You've really made me change my point of view. What's the point of letting them walking all over me? If this is a game...why not win at it?'' Fallon mused, resting her head on the ledge. Damn right i'm a freak...Aren't we all? ''No one is normal here...but they still insist on calling us freaks? I think it's time for me to give them a little...present for their 'kindness'.'' She said with a smirk. Turning her head, she gave Silus a goofy grin and she simply pushed a wave of water towards him. ''I don't think you're a freak, Silus. I think you're a pretty decent lad. I hope we can be friends...but just so you know. I ain't good with friends. I have emotional baggage and missing memory. What a great friend to have right?'' She admitted with a shrug before staring back at the water.

"... I have emotional baggage and missing memory..." She said. His heart froze and his jaw clenched in the back slightly, his body seizing up gently before he let out a sharp exhale. He snorted as he looked down to the waters. freaks with memory problems that love sweaters too big for us...Hell at this rate we could make a club... He thought to himself with a short, half-arsed chuckle.

"The past isn't worth remembering..." He said, it was oddly dreary of a tone, even for him. Then again trying to remember his past was...difficult. When he tried he couldn't get anything... everything from before the institute was a large blur of running colors, trying to pick anything out of it was like trying to decode an Van Gogh....while being blind. The only thing at all he knew was that on December 24th, was the day he could first remember...He remembered his name, his age, and that he was born on December 24th...but where he should have remembered a family, friends...he had nothing. He felt...anger growing inside him, and he shut his eyes, knowing his eyes were going to flare emerald. With a deep breath he calmed himself, and when he was certain his eyes weren't glowing he opened them again. A flake of snow fluttered down...oh how he hated the seasons of snow.

"Yeah..." He said, nodding.

Fallon frowned at his odd reaction and swam in front of him. ''That is true...The future is more important but so is the present.'' She watched as he got lost in his thoughts and sighed softly before getting sucked in her own. Remembering was like trying to look through the thickest of fogs without actually knowing where you're going and she was glad that when the..accident occurred, she had her diary. Thinking even hurt. 

Rubbing her temples, she watched as Silus calmed himself and she urged to touch his cheek but Fallon knew her fingers were as cold as ice and could easily harm him. Swimming back to the edge of the pool, she pulled herself up shakily and sat next to him. Sighing, Fallon leaned down and kissed his forehead softly before grabbing a towel and placed it around her neck. ''Silus...You're hiding your eyes from me. From everyone...Your bad emotions change them, i take it? Why must you hide them?'' She inquires before staring at him. Her hazel eyes slowly began to change to a molten gold.

descriptionCompleteRe: Early morning dip (NC-17)

"The Hell?" Silus chuckled as he felt a kiss on his forehead. The frosty kiss only stung for a second before she was gone, Silus just smiled, keeping his eyes closed and breathing normally. He opened them and arched an eyebrow. If she wasn't making too many friends he's gotta find a way to get her more friends. He thought about introducing her to his buddy Kronos, bur for some reason he didn't think they'd hit it off too well.... who knows he could be wrong though.

"Any emotion at all that causes me to freeze up or mentally stall...more or less. I don't need to hide them, I choose to because they irritate me and when they turn like that they get sensitive to light, and the sun is literally RIGHT THERE to give me a migraine." He explained with a chuckle, she didn't need to know it was a white lie, though he could feel nothing but self-loathing when thinking about his eyes. He hated snow, he hated his eyes, he hated his power. Hell, the only thing around here he even remotely liked at the minute was Fallon and the pool. Bonus points for the two being together at the moment. Suddenly he heard a few voices off in the distance a bit. He rolled his eyes and scoffed as he looked in the direction.

"I'm starting to look like an old man..." he said looking at his fingers, which were beginning to prune up from the water.

Fallon blushed and grinned at him before kicking at the water. ''Your eyes are pretty cool. If you don't like 'em, wear sunglasses. Makes everything a lot easier..'' She suggested with a smirk. Just as she said there, her own hazel eyes turn into a molten gold as her powers began to get more..out of control. Her toes that were in the water began to form ice around them and she quickly tucked them under her. She laughed lightly at his comment. ''Get out of the water then, idiot!'' She teased, still laughing and grabbed her own towel and sunglasses. They were blacked out and she placed them on to get rid of the sun glaring into her eyes, making them look like a feline. She smiled down at Silus and patted the place next to her. ''If you don't want to look like an old guy, get out!'' She couldn't stop laughing and she simply grinned happily.

"You think? I mean, does it make me too predictable? I don't like to be predictable." He said with a form of pseudo-seriousness that showed his sarcasm off rather well. He swam to the side of the pool and pushed himself up, and he began to walk over to his towel, his body freezing. This whole getting reacquainted with the air SUCKED. He opened up his towel and ran it over his head, his hands moving back and forth as fast as he could, drying his hair rather quickly. Though when it came to the rest of him he simply wiped himself down and wrapped the towel around him. Fal must really like to laugh. Though it made him think of her introduction in Biology. It irritated him in all honesty, though he was going to ignore that...for now.

     "Wow...who let the Hyena in?" He teased her as he sat down on one of the handy little benches that were scattered about. He took in a deep breath, the smell of chlorine making him cough a little when he exhaled. Of all the things Silus loved about swimming, Chlorine was the one thing he hated.

Fallon rolled her eyes at Silus' sarcasm and simply laid back to lean on her elbows. ''To be perfectly honest...if you wish to keep this tough guy persona. Perhaps sunglasses would help...It adds mystery to ones character.'' She smirks playfully. Watching him as he dried himself, she noticed that someone irritated him but she couldn't put her finger on it. ''Ya alright there, Silus?'' She asks with a smile and a raise of her eyebrow. Blushing at his words, she threw her towel at him and glared jokingly whilst a grin teased the corners of her lips. Staring up at him as he coughed, Fallon simply watched the sun dance on the water.

Fallon was giving HIM advice on looking tough? Irony left a rather funny taste in ones mouth. He started to dry himself off, thanking Fal in the process as he started to hum a little. He wasn't even exactly sure of the tune, but he had heard it somewhere. He thought a little bit about her sunglasses comment, and while he liked the idea... the whole adding mystery thing he hated. He already had enough mystery as it is, adding more might make him disappear!

"I...will have to try that some time." Silus said with cough, one that was rather...unhealthy sounding. He looked to the clock, and realized he had spent more time here than he was used to, and with the smell of Chlorine teasing at his lungs. Of course it wasn't always like this, for some reason it's rather unpredictable. He noticed that Fal seemed to be just watching the water. Taking a quick seat on the chair he coughed again, more of a violent hacking. He sighed, at this rate he'd need to leave soon or he'd be coughing all day... "That's nice..." he sneered to himself, a little hint of disgust in his voice. He shook his head and watched Fal who watched the sun dancing off the water. "If I gotta do the sunglasses thing, we gotta get you a new look. Nothing personal, I like the look...but trying to "fight back" looking pretty and nice doesn't exactly work." He informed her, nodding his head for extra effect. He let out a small cough quickly before clearing his throat.
