part one - WHEELS

Henrick had his nose buried in a book that he was so far engrossed within that the sudden THUD upon the cafeteria table took him by shock that he practically yelp out loud. The book he'd been holding flew out of his hands, only to be caught by another pair that belong to the creator of the disturbance. More specifically, the disturber had pounced on the cafeteria table and was now crouched in a frog-like position, holding the book in one hand. curse Felix and his super human reflexes. He tried to narrow his eyes in annoyance at his boyfriend, but movement at both the older male's sides stopped him from frowning and isntead he just looked confused that made Cadence laugh softly.

"Overkill much, Felix?" Gethin asked from the other side of the male.

Felix had friends beyond Henrick. He was the reason Gethin had found sanctuary at Delacroix. Had it not been for him, then the two childhood friends may never been reunited together. For an ex-asylum inmate and an imaginary friend, they were both much more normal than Felix.

Felix flicked his head, moving the strands of hair from his eyes. He was in need of a hair cut, but one didn't seem to be forthcoming on the horizon. He clicked his tongue in reply to Geth while he focused on skimming through the book. "Is this a romance novel?" Felix asked. He took a deep breath as if to read it out loud, but Cadence snatched it away from him and took over reading it for Henrick, a smug smile on her face.

Meanwhile, Henrick stared up at the male that was still perched on the tabletop, arms folding at his chest while he awaited explaination for being rudely interrupted.

"I've had an idea!" Felix began, moving to the edge of the table, closer to Henrick. Legs swung down over the side, either side of Henrick, encaging him within the long, lanky limbs. He leaned forwards, pressing his nose to Henrick's. "And I need your help."

"Judging by you dragging Gethin and Cadence along, its not a completely insane idea."

"I'm insane," Cadence chirrped up from behind the book.

"And I'm imaginary," Gethin added with a crooked grin.

Oh God, they were in on Felix's dastardly plan.

He looked back to Felix, feeling the older boy's breath washing over his face. Being fifteen with hormones rushing like mad through his body, he was doing his all to keep his blush from flourishing like wild fire over his face. It was summer, and Felix was wearing less and less clothes each day. Today his white shcool shirt was unfastened, revealing and expanse of smooth chest. "What's your idea?"

"I need a car."

"What on Earth for?"

"Well, as awesome as Cadence's power was with Gethin, I don't think she can cope with creating us a car," Felix explained.

Cadence shook her head, eyes still focused on the stolen book. "You make it sound like I've tried."

Ignoring her comment, Felix leaned on his elbows, resting them on his legs. "Its beautiful weather, and we want to go off and enjoy some of the French summer. Just be thankful I'm not asking for a fake driving license."

"No, Caddy can create those," Gethin chuckled.

"Yes, because fake I.D.s are my speciality, after imaginary friends."

Gethin laughed and leaned over, vanishing behind Felix's body and out of Henrick's view. He reappeared at his other side, whispering something into Cadence's ear that amde her laugh, and then he stole a small kiss from her. Henrick had to admit that for such an odd couple, they certainly worked well together.

Looking back to Felix, he waited for an explaination to come fourth. When nothing came from the older male's lips, he found himself asking why he needed a car.

"If I told you that, then it would ruin the surprise. You just use those books smarts and such to get us a vehicle. Perferably something like a jeep. I'll sign all the papers and whatnot when you get them, we just need wheels."
