Sarie sat staring over the lake. She had done this so may times last year, but last year seemed like a life time ago. She had changed a lot since she had last stared at the water like this. She was still small, shy, and usually alone but she wasn't the child she was last year.
Many things had changed. People where trying to distort her school. She still hadn't talked to any one about her voice. She wanted to but she didn't want to sound crazy. No one in her family about him for a him it was she knew that. She wished she had a firend she could tell.
Sarie sat there to the place she had once loved to dearly and began to cry she had never been so lonely before. Never not even when she was stuck down that well. She wanted a true friend who wouldn't vanish when she need them most. She sat there for a very long time watching the sun set on another horrible day.

"Stop it" she screamed as another boy ran up to her and said something obscene and vulgar. This was getting ridiculous they made it so you couldn't be a girl without fearing getting hit on. She had come back to school maybe a bit more developed than last term and suddenly she was a magnent for comments like can I butter your muffin sometime. She knew very well what that meant and was sickened by the fact that they would even think it appropriate to say that to someone.
Stomping around she walked out of the castle and onto the grounds. At least there she would be able to hit the next boy who said something to her without fear of some professor snapping at her.
Instead what she found was one of her own it ws Sarie she didn't know her well but she knew of her and for some reason Jules thought she looked like she could use a friend the way she was sitting there looking out at the sun like she had lost her best friend. "Hey there Sarie right? Mind if I join you?"

Sarie looked up unware of of the tear falling down her right cheek. "Yeah, just lonely." She said. She really didn't know what to say. What could she say? She barely knew this girl she didn't know her name. "I'm sorry but I don't think know your name." She said quietly. She didn't want to offend the girl.

Julianna didn't take offense to Sarie not knowing her name. It wasn't as if she was going around advertising it or anything. Not that she kept quiet or anything, but well yeah Sarie doesn't know who she is. So she put her hand out "so sorry about that where are my manners names Julianna Farraday we haven't had much opportunity to talk which is partially my fault, but none the less. If you'd like I can keep you company." Julianna didn't feel like going back in and well it was nice out.

"Julianna , thats really pretty. No I don't mind at all." She stared back over the water. She didn't want to tell Julianna about the voice but she needed to talk to some one. She knew voices weren't ever good signs. She just needed a friend.

A few people had told her that they enjoyed her name, not that she ever thought it mattered just because she was used to it but she smiled at Sarie none the less. "Thanks a lot my mom likes it too" she giggled. Taking a seat next to the young girl Jules couldn't help but watch her. She really looked like she needed someone to talk to about whatever it was that was afflicting her but Julia couldn't make anyone do anything they weren't prepared to do so she just sat there making small talk. "Lovely day isn't it I like it when it's like this, makes you just want to stay out here all day huh?"
Her eyes glanced up to look at the sky all blue and so very pretty. The grounds were always alive but today they seemed rather quiet and that was probably a good thing maybe it would make it easier for the young girl to open up. Julia just sat there and waited.

"Yeah it is nice." Sarie agreed. She hadn't been to the lake in a long time. She missed just staring out at the water some time seeing the giant squid reaching for a breeze. It did that some times it also liked toast which she fed it some from time to time. She smiled. "Do you ever had a day when you think your going crazy?"

"You know what I have actually, just recently to be exact. It's weird when you know that someone just really doesn't like you, though they don't know you and haven't spent any time around you." A tangent she hadn't meant to go on just occurred. The meeting with Professor Edgecombe seemed to come to mind a lot. She thought that perhaps she was crazy. So she did feel like she knew what Sarie meant though this time around it wasn't about her the younger girl seemed to be the one with something on her mind.
"So tell me Sarie why is it you think you're going crazy? Seeing strange things? Saying strange things? Or Hearing things?" Maybe she was trivializing the situation the girl seemed a bit upset, so keeping her big mouth shut for long enough to let the young girl answer Julia just opened her ears so she could listen.

Sarie sighed she needed to tell someone. "You promise you won't laugh?" She asked shyly. She never told anyone before expect for her father. He was the only she trusted to tell she never even told Ashton which on of her closest friends in the whole school. She hoped Julianna wouldn't laugh.
After looking at the older girl she began her story. "When I was little I had an invisible friend like children do, but after I turned 9 I didn't lose him I just stopped talking to him out loud. So my mom don't know that he's still around my dad does. But its not an invisible hes some thing else. He always shows up when I'm doing reckless but not always all the time. I know it sounds crazy but I'm not." She sighed and looked out over the water again.

Predictability wasn't something that Julianna put too much stock in, life would be boring if it were predictable but at the present time it might not be such a bad thing. Sarie's problem was anything but simple anything but ordinary, anything that Julia thought she could understand. Imaginary friends? How many people even kids would openly admit to having one of those? Needless to say that she still saw hers. Julia had no real idea of what to say about that she sort of just stared out into the distance a while trying to formulate some sort of response for the girl. All that came to mind was "you're sure?" perhaps she had been hallucinating or maybe she was just in real need of a friend so she sort of recreated this invisible friend to help cope with it. Julianna was trying to be logical about this it was the only way that this was making sense to her. She stared at Sarie then away again wondering what would possess the young girl to say such a thing.
