Tuesday morning Rachel was woken up by shouting coming from the hallway,
“No, your not well enough yet” Tray yelled standing in front of Kelly with Zack by his side,
“You said that if I rested yesterday I could go to school today” Kelly screamed stomping her foot like a child,
“Tray's right Kel, you have only rested for one day.” Zack agreed
“What's going on?” Rachel asked groggily walking out into the corridor still dressed in her pyjamas,
“Kelly wants to go to school today, but she isn't aloud” Zack explained and Kelly scowled at them both, “Nice slippers” he added noticing Rachel's pink monster feet slippers.
“Thanks” she laughed, “So why is Kelly not aloud to go to school?” she asked,
“She isn't well enough,” Tray explained and Rachel looked at Kelly who was standing with her fists clenched angrily, “she looks fine to me” Rachel said, then held her hand to Kelly's forehead to check her temperature, “She feels fine as well” she said and Kelly smiled moving Rachel’s hand from her head, “Thanks Rach” she said moving around Tray and Zack to walk into the living room,
“Don't look at me like that” Rachel groaned as Tray and Zack glared at her.
“Why didn't you back us up?” Zack asked, “You know she isn't ready to go back to school” he added
“I know she is still weak, but I also know that there is no way that you two would get Kelly to miss another day of school. I was actually surprised you got her to miss yesterday.” she explained, “Anyway you did say that she could go today and we will all be there to look after her” She continued, Tray sighed and agreed that she was right.
“Who does he think he is?” Kelly cried as she sat with Jenny and Rachel in maths, She had related the mornings events to Jenny and was furious with Tray for ordering her about.
“Well Kel, he is you dad” Jenny reminded
“I don't care” Kelly grumbled scribbling down equations,
“Kelly” Rachel sighed,
“He is only worried about you Kel” Jenny said causing Kelly to sigh,
“I know,” she admitted.
“I thought that you were going to give Tray a chance” Rachel reminded
“I am!” she cried slamming her hand on the desk causing Miss Penny to scowl at her,
“Is there a problem girls?” she asked and all three girls sang, “No Miss,” in unison before getting on with their work. Kelly knew that Tray was only concerned for her, but she didn't want to be treated like a baby. When class was over Kelly left the room first not waiting for Jenny or Rachel, she needed some time alone to think.
Zack and Adam were walking towards the library to meet the girls when Rachel came running up to them, “What's up?” Zack asked worried,
“Kelly just walked off, we don't know where she is.” she blurted as Jenny caught up to her.
“We had a little disagreement in Maths and now we can't find her anywhere” Jenny added tears in her eyes, “What if she is in danger or hurt” she gasped.
“Calm down we will help you find her, she is probably in the library” Zack said and they all continued towards the library. They looked all over the place but they still couldn't find her.
“She wasn't in class,” Zack said at Lunch, a hint of worry creeping into his voice.
“Something bad has happened” Jenny cried, “She would never miss a lesson” she added.
“Maybe we should call Tray” Adam suggested,
“NO!” Zack and Rachel screamed, “He will be so angry with us, we were suppose to look after her” Zack explained.
“We will just keep looking, she will be around here somewhere” Rachel said and they split up to continue the search for Kelly.
Max was walking out of the sports gym mumbling under his breath. He had just had another argument with his dad about training. Mr Rhead was adamant that he attended tonight’s practice, which meant that he couldn't go to the warrior house to train. As he stomped across the field to the main school building he noticed someone hunched up under a tree. “Kelly?” he asked as he walked closer to the girl, “Are you alright?” he questioned seeing that she had been crying.
“Yes, I'm just … thinking” she mumbled wiping her eyes, Max looked at her for a moment unsure what to say, it was obvious that she was upset. After a moment Max sat beside her without a word and she looked at him in confusion. Kelly and Max had never been very close, she had only ever seen him when he was with Jenny, but somehow she felt better with him sat beside her. After a few minutes of silence Kelly finally spoke, “This is a little weird”
“I know,” Max agreed but he still sat beside her, “It just seems like you need someone at the moment and I can't see Rachel and Jenny anywhere, so I guess your stuck with me” Max explained after a moment of thought.
“Thank you” was all that Kelly said in reply, “Jenny and Rachel don't understand” she explained causing Max to look at her urging her to continue. “I don't really understand myself” she sighed, “I just feel like I have to please everyone and it's exhausting” she added.
“I know the feeling” Max sighed recalling his relationship with his father.
“I guess me and you have something in common” Kelly smiled,
“Yes, we both have excruciating parents” Max laughed,
“Always being pushed to do what they want” Kelly remarked,
“Always being told that you are never good enough”,
“Never having a moment to yourself”,
“Always being compared and judged”,
“I bet it is horrible to have older brothers who you are compared to” Kelly sympathized,
“Yes, but I don't know what I would do if I found out that my parents had adopted me” Max said,
“It was actually a relief” Kelly explained, “At first I was angry because I had been working so hard to make them proud and they had lied to me” she said, “But then I realized that I didn't have to worry about what they thought any more. I was free” she explained, “But now I have Tray who is constantly treating me like a baby, I have gone from being told to grow up and work harder, to being told to be-careful and that it's to dangerous to use my gift” she groaned, “And I know that he is just worried about me and wants me to be safe, but I just want to be able to do things my own way and in my own time” Max nodded understandingly,
“I can understand how frustrating that would be” he said and Kelly smiled, “Your the only one who agrees with me, Jenny, Rachel and Zack just tell me to give him a chance” she sighed,
“Why do we never talk?” Max asked after another moment of silence,
“I guess I have always seen you as Jenny's boyfriend, who only cares about football and his friends. I always thought that we were opposites and wouldn't get along” she said thoughtfully,
“Yes, I guess we are opposites,” Max agreed and they eased back into their comfortable silence until Max got a text message from a worried Jenny asking if he had seen Kelly.
“I think you are being missed” he said showing her the text.
“Yes, well they will be worried. I missed my last lesson” Kelly said,
“Gosh, that doesn't sound like you at all, no wonder they are all freaking out” he laughed,
“I had better go and calm them all down before they ring the police or worse Tray” she giggled standing up, “Are you coming?” she asked and Max smiled joining her.

Woop Woop Max and Kelly had a little heart to heart :) So what did you think?
Is Tray being overprotective of Kelly? do you think Kelly is being silly or do you understand?
What about Jenny and Rachel should they be on Kelly's side? what do you think about Max being to one to comfort her?
