"I know, it's because of the unbreakable bond you've forged during the very short time that you've been here together." James replied, eating some of his pancakes. "The point is that she was afraid of me."

"So give her reasons not to be"

"I haven't even given her a reason to be afraid in the first place. I'm not going to sprinkle holy water on myself just to make her feel better." James took another bite, swallowed, and then looked at Mack. "You can think what you want, as long as you don't spreading rumors."

"In spite of your impression of me, which I'm taking that it's not the best, I am not the kind of person to spread rummors." She said coldly "So... don't worry, your secret is safe with me" she added with a french accent

"That would be a safe assumption." James agreed, referring to her understanding of his impression of her. "And it's not much of a secret." In the approximate five minutes they had been talking, he had finished his pancakes and now picked up his plate to leave.

"If you say so, who am I to contradict you?" Mack stated before restibg her head back on the table.

"A different Mack than the one I know." James answered, grabbing the apple and orange juice before cleaning the plate and putting it away.

"You're not making any sense now"

James walked back out, looking at her. "The Mack I know jumps at any opportunity to contradict me."

"Oh that" She said thinking about it. "Reason number one: I'm tired. Reason number two: You saved me so I guess I owe you a little more respect. Reason number three: My plan failed miserably, so I see no further use in pissing you off" she stated

"So that's what it takes to get some respect around her." James mused, arching an eyebrow at her. "Your plan?"

"Yeah, she tends to have problems in trusting people. And since you were able to help her with her tendency to atrack trouble, yes, she thinks that you are worthy of her respect" Mack said slightly mocking him "Well, I had come up with a plan to get out of this place. But Cam ruined plan A by saying that they would bring me back if I ran. Then plan B was ruined because I didn't have the means to burn this down. Plan C was pissing off a teacher to the point he or she would want to trow me out"

James smiled slightly, amused by her plans. "I don't think plan A is completely ruined. There might be a few teachers who would go out of their way to chase down students, but I think most of them would let you run. If you really don't want to be here, then I don't think should be here, and I wouldn't stop you.. which is why I think you don't hate this place as much as you act like you do."

"Coming here meant leaving behind the people that mattered the most to me" Mack said with a sad smile "Leaving now, would mean leaving behind some people that already matter a lot"

"And it doesn't hurt to have next to no supervision, free room, and free board." James added, the last too speaking for him since she would have that whether she was at the Academy or home. "It beats going from one run down motel to the next and eating every meal in the first roadside diner you can find."
