muse_shuffle April Disc 2 Track 13
13. Every couple nights or so y'know/You pop into my dreams/I just can't get rid of you
Like you got rid of me/Oh but I send my best/Cause God knows you've seen my worst
[‘Fair’ - Ben Folds Five]
"Do you have a crush on me, or are you just bored?"
The boy with the soccer ball seems more taken aback by the question itself than the fact that Molly is speaking to him. But he recovers quickly, the serene 'I know something you don't' expression slipping back into place. "You know that's not why I'm here."
Molly sighs in aggravation. "Then why are you here?" Instead of answering directly, the boy looks down the hallway to where her classmate is standing. "Her?"
He nods. "You know what you have to do. She needs someone who understands."
"Well, why can't you talk to her?" His only response is that same enigmatic smile. "It's not exactly a cakewalk, you know. How am I supposed to start the conversation - 'Hi, my name is Molly and I think you have a power like I do'?"
The boy merely smiles. "You'll know how to begin when the time comes. Just trust yourself."
His final words, "trust yourself" are still ringing in Molly's head when she wakes up from the dream. She realizes how right he is. This is something she can't put off any longer.
