Cara and Lex were riding Rex right below Ero. Cara sighed, “it’s been a day, are you calm yet?” Lex is still clingy to Rex for dear life, “no…” Cara sighed as she reached her hand out to him. Lex looked at her hand confused, “what do you want me to do with that?” Cara looked annoyed with Lex, “take my hand, you idiot.” Lex looked at her disgusted, “and why would I do that.” Cara looked at him even more annoyed and this time slightly angry, “I was trying to make you feel more comfortable on the last day, but if you don’t want to take my offer fine!” Lex looked anxious, “no, wait I’m sorry!” Cara put her hand on her ear, “sorry I can’t hear you.” Lex started to get annoyed now, “I’m sorry.” “one more time?” Cara said with an evil grin.
Lex yelled at her in a fit of anger, “I know you heard me so I’m not going to say it again.” Cara smiled with a laugh, “ok fine.” she reached her hand out to Lex as he grabbed it. Cara pulled him up to where she was, their faces inches away from each other, “you are forgiven.” Lex blushed at being pulled this close to her face. Cara smiled still holding Lex’s hand, “do you feel better?” Lex nodded, “yes..” Cara smiled, “you’re stubborn, you know that.” Lex was butt hurt about the comment, “Yeah so what.” Cara laughed, “it’s fun not having everyone listen to me without a second thought.” “That sounds like fun to me,” Lex replied. Cara shook her head, “it’s not.” “and why’s that?” Lex asked.

Cara smiled with a sad expression, “because, no one is your real friend.” “they’re only your friends for the money, or to talk behind your back.” Lex looked sad for her, “that sounds lonely.” “It was, plus it doesn’t help that my mom doesn’t even seem to care.” “what do you mean,” Lex curiously asked. Cara sighed, “My mom cared more about the prisoners and the war than me.” Lex looked down sad, “Mark, Rouge, and I are all orphans.” “I’m sorry.” Lex shook his head, “don’t be, by the sound of it, you’re pretty much an orphan too.” “I suppose.” Lex looked down remorseful, “I’m sorry for being mean to you before, I’m not always like that.” Cara smiled, “It’s alright.” “Can we start over as friends?” Lex asked nervously. Cara nodded, “of course.”
