The Academy: A School for Metahumans [Closed]

Almost everyone seemed to be paired up. Jason was suddenly once more painfully aware of the fact that he was new here. He scanned around trying to figure out who he would ask. Most of the people who had come to know were partnered up so he was basically screwed. Alright I can at least play it cool.

"Alright guys so who wants to be my partner?!" He sound loudly with a wide grin, that served to hide his self consciousness. He hoped someone took him up on his offer, or he'd look like a total dumbass.

Jason was a little taken aback. He hadn't expected her to be this open, but he was pleased. It was nice to talk to someone on a deeper level. He felt sad for her. In fact he could feel her pain. Jason's empathetic sensory ability was incredible, nothing compared to Ashleigh's, though he could still empathize. He crouched down and looked into her eyes with a very serious gaze.

"I know that feeling very well." He said seriously. "In fact..." He wondered what she would think of him when he told her... But he realized that she had opened up with him so it was only fair that he did the same, despite potential consequences. "You see I've never really fit in anywhere..." He started cautiously. "Because of my abilities I was always able to do better than everyone else in an environment where people were used to being the best. So they hated me for it. Not only did they hate me for it, they punished me for it." He said, his tone slightly leaking resentment. "And then one day I realized I had the power to punish them back." He said, trying to keep his voice even. "So one day I did. I punished every last one of them. I was angry, I was spiteful, and even more than that I was cruel." He said trying not to take pleasure at the thought. Jason was wary of how much he enjoyed stuff like that, and didn't necessarily like it. "So yeah I know all about that part at least. And the justification, and even pleasure?" He whispered. "That was the best, and worst part" He finished in a low voice.

"You have an incredibly heavy burden to bear Ashleigh, it doesn't make you weak for not being able to carry it all on your own yet. I'm fact, I'd wager that you're the strongest of all of us." He said pointing to his temple.
@Stern Algorithm
Vedikas sudden interruption startled him causing him to jump slightly.
"Ready as I'll ever be." He said cracking a smile and standing back up.
As they headed back in he whispered "Just knock next time, I have trouble sleeping sometimes as well. you're not the only one haunted by their past." He whispered low enough that only Ashleigh could hear.

Oh shit! Jason almost said aloud when Paulina appeared out of nowhere. She must've heard what I said. Jason thought nervously. He decided to play it cool.
@Thundercrash
"Oh hey Paulina." Jason said trying to sound casual. Before he could make an attempt to cover for himself another girl came over.Yeesh this Liam guy is a real chic-magnet. Jason made a mental note to ask him his secret later. The girl politely introduced herself, she seemed nice enough.
@Dusksong
"Nice to meet you Korie, the names Jason Blackwell." He said. He hasn't told anyone here his last name before, but she introduced herself like that so it seemed fair that he should reveal his. Not that it really mattered anyways. He almost began to read her, but he stopped himself. Sometimes it was nice to leave a little to the imagination. Plus he know he felt odd when the people here read him.

"I...I'm sorry everyone. I need to get out for a minute." Ashleigh said suddenly before quickly exiting the gym. Jason didn't want to overstep bounds but he figured she could use... well something, he wasn't sure what yet but he was gonna find out. Ignoring the thoughts of judgement that would surely be passed on him upon leaving, he went after her out of the gym, not caring if he was late. She didn't seem to notice him approaching as he heard her low whisper.

"Are you really weak?" He asked, making his presence known.
"Or do you just bear a heavier burden?"

Jason could feel people gazing on his very soul, his cognitive acceleration gave him some type of 6th sense that he hadn't exactly figured out yet. It seemed nearly everyone in this school could either read him with supernatural ability, or sheer skill, and it annoyed him. He felt like his thoughts might never be private here, and it terrified him. He wouldn't call them nosy however, he did the same thing. he just wasn't used to it being the other way around...
@themerlinhawk
"Nice to meet you as well Liam." Jason replied evenly, pretending not to notice eyes flickering from him to Ashleigh. He could almost hear their questioning, to which Jason had no answer. Damn, its only been a day, and I'm already getting 'the look'. Obviously he had never had much experience with girls, so despite his ability to project confidence, and even casually flirt from time to time, he truly was just making it up as he went along. As to a question of interest? There was a difference between attraction and interest, and He himself wasn't sure, but that didn't mean he didn't want to find out. The only person Jason had trouble reading was himself...
@caits
He felt bad for the boy he came to know as Allister, it sounded like he had had a much rougher night than him. "Yeesh man, that sounds kind of miserable." he interjected sympathetically. "I sure hope they haven't begun looking for a way to shut me down." He chuckled nervously. His eyes quickly darted around the room, praying Paulina hadn't overheard, and taken that as a challenge.

Fuck. Me. Jason thought as he looked at his clock. The color drained from his face as he realized how much he had slept in. Jason could already hear a lecture from Paulina. He had no problem with breaking the rules, or even getting in trouble, but he preferred it be a more important cause than that of a faulty alarm clock. He jumped out of bed and made a Wild dash for the bathroom, bolting into the shower after throwing his clothes aside. As the hot water ran down his body, his thoughts drifted to the previous night.

He had been woken by nightmares of his past. The thought of 'the word' sent a shiver down his spine, despite the fact that he liked his showers hot. He had sensed someone lurking outside his door however, and discovered none other than Ashleigh through the peephole. He dared not open the door, risking him looking like a creeper. So he had tiptoed back to his bed, and waited. He was kind of disappointed when she didn't come in, and eventually fell back asleep. But now he realized she had only known him for a day, and probably wasn't yet comfortable entering his room at whatever ungodly hour it had been.

After coming out of the shower he checked his schedule, if he hurried he could make it to gym. He quickly slathered on some deodorant and sprayed on some of his the cologne his father had given him 2 years ago, that he wore nearly every day. Throwing on his gym clothes and grabbing his bag he threw open his door and darted down the hallway. He actually made it to class with time to spare he realized as he burst through the gym doors. His loud entrance quickly attracted glances from other students. His cheeks flushed slightly as he scanned the room for a familiar face. Ashleigh caught his eye, as she was engaged in conversation with a boy he had seen yesterday. He looked around for someone to talk to but everyone else seemed busy as well. He wasn't the type to butt in on a conversation but he didn't want to risk Ashleigh catching him standing alone in a corner watching her from a distance again like some stalker. Seeing no other option he began to approach the two.
@caits
"Yo Ashleigh!" He shouted casually as he made his way over. He quickly made an attempt to introduce himself to the other boy as he reached them. "Hey I've seen you around, but I don't think we've talked before. I'm Jason by the way." He said, extending his hand forward for a handshake.
