we need some light.

Bonjour. I am Xavier Light. I am 17 years old. I grew up in France but adventure was always there for me. I love my friends and family more so than anything.

“I haven’t been in any trouble that you would possibly be aware of.” Whitney’s voice laced with laughter as though she were not serious. She might have gotten in spitting fights with a few teachers here and there, and some or most well deserved stream of detentions, but she wasn’t a troublemaker. It followed and she responded just as she would back at sea. Something she hadn’t thought about since the accident Xavier was still just recovering from. Getting homesick was her relapse every single time. “So I haven’t eaten in like twenty minutes. So I’m thinking about heading to the boardwalk. Sound cool?” 

[lightofxavier]

“That sounds even more terrifying than if I did know what you were up to.” He said with a chuckle. He knew what she was like and just hoped than if anything got serious with trouble she could come to him or Will if she really needed help. He would always be there to give it to her.  “That sounds perfect. Lead the way.” He smiled towards her, following along. “So, dare I ask what it is you have been up to?” 

[echoesofthesea]

What did you say? Sorry! I wasn’t listening.

[lightofxavier]

Nothing exciting.

[novelsandcherrytrees]

Ahhh!! I feel like I can fly! Keep me up! Keep me up!!

[lightofxavier]

We’ve not done this since we were kids.

Under Feet Like Ours || Whitier

Whitney couldn’t be happier to have the air getting away from the cold and into the warm temperature she was born and raised in. She could practically feel herself wilting if it had dropped any lower. She had surprised herself for surviving in Washington with Teri and Riley over the holidays a few months back. Whitney would have absolutely gone anywhere Teri needed going. Xavier was almost the same way. Having him back and clear for take off, something she wasn’t even aware he was still doing, made her relax when she heard the news as though she had known. She waited out in the courtyard in her favorite skirt and top she was glad to be able to wear and not freeze when she and Xavier were walking around. “Hey, kid. You all ready to go?”

[lightofxavier]

Xavier like being in the air. He didn’t mind if it cold, hot, dry or raining, he just wanted out. He had been on the road to recovery and now he was free to live his life again. The physio just had to seem him in a few months time for a check up. He was glad to put this all behind him. Maybe now, Will would stop beating himself up about it. He missed his best friend. But he still felt guilty. Putting on some jeans, a t-shit and throwing on a open flannel shirt, he left to go and meet Whitney. “All ready, troublemaker.” He smiled at her.

[fairpiratesheart]

I’m so glad you’re easily entertained. Meet me in the courtyard?

[lightofxavier]

I’ll see you there.

[fairpiratesheart]

Not a serious dinner, or a club that’s too over top. How about we just walk around town and see what we can find?

[lightofxavier]

Sounds perfect to me.

[fairpiratesheart]

Fantastic! Where do you want to go that’s not going to be a total drab? 

[lightofxavier]

I think you are the person to deiced that. 

[fairpiratesheart]

What’cha say about going out then to celebrate? Or are you on some kind of house arrest?

[lightofxavier]

I’m sure a little celebration won’t kill me.

[fairpiratesheart]

Is that where you’ve been captive? 

[lightofxavier]

Sure is.

[lightofxavier]

And the therapist finally set me free.

And Well She Knows || Xavier

[dame-angeletta-blog]

Angeletta clamped a hand on her mouth when she almost swore at the unexpected person she was pointedly avoiding. “Sorry, sorry. I just didn’t expect anyone else to be out here.” Next thing she knew, the person she ended up spending her blue Christmas would be in the cafe. Things were stupid like that. She thought Xavier to be kind and quiet, but people had their limits. She was shaking from far more of the cold at having him mad at her. She hated what she was the product of and wished she could fix it somehow for Xavier’s sake. “Just stressed from, y’know holidays.” She stumbled over her words as she rubbed the back of her neck. “How were yours?” 

[lightofxavier]

"It's okay." Xavier said in a small chuckle. He noted her behavior and hoped that she was okay but didn't want to press on any further. "I can leave if you want me to. We can pretend this never happened." He laughed waving his hand about. Xavier had lied being back and seeing his friends once more. It was great to have a catch up. "Stressed?" He asked, leaning down to the pet the dog once more as he looked up at the girl standing before him. "Is everything okay?" He asked, wanting to make sure nothing was bother. "Mine were fine." He told her. Everything was great except the worrying about his good friend.

And Well She Knows || Xavier

Angeletta had no idea as to why she was sitting out in the freezing cold on a park bench staring blankly at some dog chasing its own tail. Anything was better than shutting herself in the dorm room by herself, but this was getting ridiculous. She’d avoided the topic like the absolute plague but there was no reason whatsoever she could go on forever. Xavier had a right to know. Even though he and all of the family in the castle had gotten on just fine seemingly without her. She didn’t know where to begin. She didn’t know how to convince him if he didn’t believe her. They barely even knew each other from a hole in the ground. Lettie got up and started back in towards the school when the dog made headway for home itself. Who, on earth should be the first person she see than Xavier himself. “He-hey! Long time no see.” She greeted, wiping the slush off her warn boots. 

[lightofxavier]

Part of Xavier was glad to be back at the school. He liked it here. Not that he didn't like it at home. It was nice to have people back and to help out at the kitchen was always his favorite thing to do of the year. He had promised the woman in charge that he would be back before leaving for the school and nothing had stopped hi breaking his work. He was furthering his studies but he was still so lost thinking of what he would do with his life, so a walk in the snow seemed like the right thing to be doing. He was walking along when a dog came running up to him. "Hey, hey little guy." He chuckled, bending down to pet it. "Oh, bonjour madmoiselle." Xavier smiled at her. "How have you been?" 

[novelsandcherrytrees]

Hey look everyone, it's me,

Clark Kent.

[lightofxavier]

Called it. Gen owes me 10 bucks.

Could've Shaped Heartaches || Xavier

[dame-angeletta-blog]

Angeletta pulled her jacket more around her as she saw Xavier coming around. “Bonjour, monsieur, Xavier.” She greeted in a lilted singsong tone of voice she practiced back at home. She gave an all teeth grin in excitement for going. “Sounds great!” She agreed and began heading out the door. She admired the light gray look that blanketed over the majority of the atmosphere in a wintry fog. Not too bright as summer, not too dark thankfully for them to be going. It was without exaggeration perfect for her. "Do you mind if we walk? It looks so nice out." 

[lightofxavier]

"Bonjour, mademoiselle." He said to her with a smile on his face.  It felt good to feel the air again. Even if it was far too cold the fresh air cutting at his cheeks felt better than the stuffy rooms at the hospital. Everything seemed to be on the way up and that was the mindset that Xavier wanted to keep. He didn't die so clearly someone wanted to keep him here. "Yeah, I can't drive right now, so walking is perfect." He smiled at her, glad that he had some time away from everything else.

Could've Shaped Heartaches || Xavier

Angeletta regrouped and redressed. She didn’t want to seem too excited to go out of the school with someone as opposed to going alone. She had thought getting to spend some time in solitude would have worked for her since she wasn’t required to anymore. She had just gotten so used to that life that everything else seemed unreal to her. Lie that was who she was ultimately born to be. She hoped staying here a little while longer could change that. In the mean time, she waited in front of the school for someone who was from her home to get coffee. Or eat. 

[lightofxavier]

Xavier was finally getting to a good place again. The physiotherapist said that he had made fast improvements and that was something he was happy about. Not for his own sake but for William; he wanted to get better to show him that it was all in the past. A small trip to get some hot cocoa with a new friend was just what he was needing. He was surprised that he never came across Angeletta before. Although, France was a pretty big place. It was always nice to have a home comfort there with him. "Hey." He smiled, pushing his hair back when he saw her. "Hot cocoa it is?"
