"I'm only doing some of it. You can do the rest." Nathan slid the materials over to her.

Mack accepted the task and started working on it. Being something she knew how to do, she did most of the work without paying much attention to it. Her mind was wandering around her life before the academy.

Nathan glanced at her once or twice while he wrote down the results, doing his best to block her thoughts from his mind.

Mack felt her hands tremble and stoped working, pressing them against the desk, in order to stop the shaking. 'Stop thinking about it, it's stupid' she told herself and restarted working, wondering why such things were comming to her mind.

Nathan noticed the pause and looked up at her. "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine" she said a little too fast, a little too harsh. She sighed, noticing her mistake "Sorry. I'm ok, really." she added, avoiding eye contact

"You might be okay, but something's wrong." Nathan replied, watching her. "What is it?"

"Nothing's wrong with me" she said "I'm just being stupid"

"I don't think so. You did everything correctly." Nathan looked back down to the lab.

"I didn't mean it that way" she told him although she suspected he already knew it "I'm being stupid for beating myself up and making myself miserable about a something that's better the way it is. They're obviously better without me" With the last part of her speech being unintentional, Mack mentally slapped herself for such lack of control

Nathan looked up at her, "It's not so obvious to me. Why do you say that?"

"They're better without me because they're safer without having me dragging all kinds of danger to them. Seriously, it looks like I'm a freaking magnet or something"

"Yup. Mother and father are hunters. They're also archaeologists. Granma and Granpa are hunters too. From moher's side. And there's a lot of whealth involved, therefore I always thought they took it more like a sport than anything else. It's like: Oh, darling, it's such an wonderfull day. Let's go hunt some werewolves, shall we?"

Nathan smiled slightly, "Then I don't see how you could attract any more danger than they already do."
