Aeries watched as Flare walked from Simon, sunglasses covering his eyes just like the first time she had met him. She could have sworn she saw him look over at her, even for just a split second, and decided to go and see what was wrong. Nothing good could be happening when Flare looked as moody as that, or when he wore his sunglasses. Wanting to find out, she jogged after him and followed him to the climbing frames outside the building. 

He was sat on one of them, looking up at the skies above with such a dull look that it was obvious he hadn't spotted her as she walked over. She poked his leg, seeing as he was higher up than her, and he jumped slightly as he looked down at her.

"You're really good at sneaking up on people, you know that?" he said, and she smiled up at him in her usual, innocent way. He moved over a little, and she climbed up and sat down beside him, before looking up as well.

"This place is so pretty, and the people here are really nice. Have you spoken to any of them?" she asked curiously, and he nodded, keeping his gaze on the clouds up above.

"I guess so, but they ask a lot of questions."

"You just need to lighten up a little," she replied, reaching over and taking his sunglasses before putting them on and smiling. "Hey, these are pretty cool!" she said, making him smile.

"At least he's cheering up a little. He really doesn't take to new people very well, does he? Like a dog or something." They both looked down at Simon as he walked over as well, and Aeries smiled down at him as well.

"He was fine when he first met me," she said as the silver haired teenager sat down in front of them.

"Meh, he just likes you," he replied, which resulted with a foot on his head. "Ow..." Flare closed his eyes and leant back against the metal bar with a humoured smile on his face.
