[color=fdc68a][center][h2]Rahna Altema[/h2][/center][/color] [hr] She always forgot to tell Eli about why she didn't want him to talk to her mom. And she'll probably keep forgetting every time since they always go out to do something silly. She shook her head slightly with a small sigh, [color=fdc68a]"I'm more worried that my mother would embarrass me instead. Also, you'd never be able to leave if she started a conversation with you."[/color] She replied with a somewhat amused look. She noticed that Eli had spotted the bandages on her arm, she subconsciously hide her injury behind her back, giving him a cheerful smile. [color=fdc68a]"It's okay! Really. I-I'm just not used to the glider yet, that's all."[/color] She didn't want Eli to feel down about her injury. She didn't want to spoil the fun by making him worry about her. He'd endured much worse than this, she knew because she was always the one treating his wounds, but his unfaltering, adrenaline filled attitude is what kept him going, and that's what she really admired about him. She also didn't believe the words that came out of his mouth. She knew her best friend. He was really looking forward to this race. A small darkness swelled in her mind. She was making this difficult for Eli.. negative thoughts ran through her head.. However, his next suggestion eased her conscience a little. Perhaps even amused her a little, because she noticed how long he paused for, ending with [color=ed1c24]"Talk?"[/color] Rahna realized that he never really did anything that was considered 'normal', like talking. Conversations. Perhaps she should've left him to talk to her mom. She giggled when his smile returned. [color=fdc68a]"Of course, I'd love to talk with you~ I haven't really had a day to relax in awhile, so it'll be nice."[/color] She responded finally, giving him a warm smile. She quickly jogged around the corner of her house, retrieving her glider and jogged back over to Eli. [color=fdc68a]"I know it's not very far, but shall we race to our usual spot?"[/color] She suggested with a grin on her face. Their usual spot was only an island away, so it really wasn't far enough to make for a proper race, since it was just a straight line. However, Rahna decided to entertain the idea to keep Eli's spirits up. [hr] [@LostBrotherGrimm]
