Axel looked down on his sterling silver rolex watch,it had a pale,watery blue face with silver dials and hands. A small thin gold hand ticked merrily around the face,counting for every second that went by,the smallest hand was pointed directly at eight whilst the smallest hand rested on one minute past. It was starting to get late and the whole castle seemed to be winding down as students took their last trips outside,finished their conversations with their friends before heading to their dorms for their eleven pm curfew hit. A perfect time to have a game of hide and seek,it had been kept a secretive subject,only passed between the closest and dearest to make sure that no teacher knew what mischief was going to happen tonight. The castle lights dimmed ever so slightly,obviously to inform the students that it was getting late. Axel couldn't remember how many people he had invited,but waited patiently for them to arrive, his pale, watery blue eyes began to buzz with electricity and excitement as it got later and later as he got more anxious by the second. He wore a faded grey t-shirt that had a picture of scooby doo on the center of it,he had light blue jeans on and on his feet were a pair of white all star converse. Hung over his arm was a jet black coat,it was long and had a hood, it was designed for a guy to wear it but he had no intention of putting it on. Brushing his blonde hair out of his face,he searched the corridor, but no one had arrived yet,sighing with disappointment and anticipation,he walked over and lent on the wall to his right. It seemed like forever,just standing there,not knowing if you had been stood up by a group of your peers or if they were just running late,the truth of it was that only a minute had passed by from when he last checked his watch. Axel began playing with the silver key that hung around his neck on a sterling silver chain,it was boiling hot,enough to give someone 3rd degree burns, but he was used to it,the only thing he wasn't used to as of yet was when the fiber in his clothes would melt and attach itself to his skin or when his clothes would suddenly catch fire,it was mainly long sleeve tops that did that and he learned from experience to avoid him like the plague. Images of earlier flashed in his head, how he managed to burn the pages of that pointless book that gave him information that he already knew and how his key had managed to nearly burn a hole in the table. He remembered meeting Sophie there, she wasn't too pleased about the disturbance he made in the library, but there was definitely a strong friendship there to last a lifetime. After all, the peace and quiet was pretty much his sanctuary as it was hers. Axel smiled, his first three days in the castle and he had already met three beautiful girls;Alice,Sophie and Will. Axel snapped out of his trip down memory lane and listened carefully because he could hear footsteps from the far end of the corridor.
