|He reached out, hesitant, and put his hand over Sarah's gloved one. A silent reassurance that here was someone who understood that particular sort of pain. He looked up at the other girl...and winced. Becca.|

She frowns. "Whats wrong?" She looks concerned. "are you hurt? Did t-- nevermind... obviously not... are you okay?"

Sarah nodded. "Just a bad memory." She looked at Jesse's hand and blushed. It was so warm.

|Oh, yeah. Too bad he was gay. Or bisexual. Because sometimes, he thought he could look at a girl and like her, and other times he couldn't. It was a bit of an odd situation for him. He patted her hand once and then removed it, watching Becca out of the corner of his brown eye.|

|He turned to face her fully, the weight of that blue gaze...unsettling. "I know." He hesitated. This girl was a friend of Sarah's..."I..was told...about you, I mean." They could take that statement the way they liked.|

|He shrugged. "Some would disagree, I'm sure." And he quickly turned away, because she was staring at his eyes, and, though she was a friend of Sarah, she was an unknown. He didn't know if she would laugh at him or not.|

Sarah looked at her hand. ~No body has ever touched my hand in a friendly way. If ever, it was to examine or ridicule, but most were too afraid to even come near it.~

She grinned. "I like them. They're cool! I've never met anyone like that... i think they look awesome."

|He was slow to turn back, due to his earlier coversation with Tom. This was the girl he was supposed to decieve? This sweet, innocent girl? She did not have Sarah's untimely wisdom, but there was still something there..."I'm Jesse. Jesse..Brightstone." And he offered his hand. But even as he did, he was looking to Sarah and smiling in his small way, reassuring.|

She shook his hand. "nice to meet you... unless you hate me already." She smiles, jokingly. "Happens alot, you know."

She suddenly smiled warmly, that sugary sweet smile that melted hearts, to herself. ~I have friends again. Becca and Jesse: my friends. How long has it been?~

Becca rubbed her head. "What're you thinking in that incomprehensible mind, now, sarah? Did you get your hands on sugar again?"

|He shook his head, as well as her hand. He didn't hate her. He couldn't. Was this what it was like to have friends? He sighed, letting go, returning to his book. All his life, he had been forbidden to associate with children his age. It was not proper, it made him softhearted, it made him *weak*, his father said. Was this what he had been missing out on...?|
