Not because of the danger involved, but because of the rebel factor. Climbing this thing isn't rebellious anymore. I was actually terrified of climbing it, afraid I would fall to my death, but as long as I kept my head tilted to the sky, the wind making the ladder creak made me feel like I was flying. My fingers scraped the dusty, dirty metal of the top of the ledge surrounding the water tower, and I paused for a moment, turning my head to face the surrounding fields as the wind whipped my hair in my face, the breeze warm and inviting. The sun was high in the sky, warming the top of my head. I heaved myself on to the ledge and rolled up against the tower, basking in the sun. I was wearing cut-offs, which came to about my knees. I wore lacy, black leggings beneath those, which met at my high-top black converse. I had on a Nirvana concert t-shirt, black with that yellow smiley face. My hair was pulled back out of my eyes with a five-second pony tail that I had crammed in before ascending the ladder, but I let it fall loose now that I was up here. Actually, now that I was up here, I had no idea what to do. I was still a little uncomfortable at the academy, and it's not like I had very many friends in Gatlin High. I didn't have anything to do in my spare time, except practice my music. And, no matter how much I loved it, that could get boring. I supposed that I could just try to figure out more about my power. I had been dubbed an 'Empath'. The summary was that I could borrow others powers. Yeah, how awesome would that be? Not very. I mean, I need to study up on a whole bunch of other powers. How come I couldn't have landed with x-ray vision or something like that? Leaning back, I rested my head against the warm metal of the water tower. Maybe I could take a nap or something for the time being © melly welly from caution 2.0 | LYRICS BY FLORENCE & THE MACHINE OUTFIT: HERE | --- WORDS | NOTES: THEY GO HERE |
