fuck off

We’re all stuck under the dome together so it’ll be easier on you if you just get used to it now rather than later.

Or.. we could try to get out, and not act like a bunch of superpussies.

Again, she missed the joke, and instead remained sniffling but no longer sobbing apologies. Vanessa was oblivious to his attempts to try and bring an arm up around her, but she did notice when his body went stiff. At the sensation, her eyes snapped open. It wasn’t until after he spoke did she pull away, her eyes wide and brows furrowed. The falter in his tone was obvious and she was still close enough to feel the rapid pace of his heart. When her eyes dropped they went to his arms, limp at his side. Paralysis.

Considering Vanessa had no sense of humor, and was a bit too shell shocked to pick up on little things like Ryder’s joke, she only shook her head and drew her brows together slightly “No, I’m alright.” Truth be told, however, she was slightly pale. It wasn’t so much that she was disgusted as it was shocked. He seemed to have thrown up for minutes on end, and she could only imagine the pain he was in.. because of her. Throughout the time Vanessa had rubbed his back slightly, saying small bits of encouragement but they were all subconscious. For the most part, Vanessa had been lost in thought, lost in a swarm of guilt.

Vanessa stared at Ryder slightly dumb founded. What else would she be doing? It wasn’t the ‘little girl’ part that got her. In fact, she didn’t notice it at all. She couldn’t figure out why he would ask such a question. None the less, Vanessa barely dwelled on it for more than a second.

Balloons? No, we’re not throwing a five year old’s birthday party. I mean more like loud music and drinking.

Yeah? Not sure we have the supplies in here.

Andrew’s eyes widened slightly when Ryder caught his wrist, but he quick to collect himself in a sneer “No, of course not. -” Andrew was cut off as the shock was sent through his body, knees shaking slightly but not giving out. After a second of biting the inside of his cheek, Andrew finished  ”Even off my pedestal I’m higher than you.”  Betting that his eye contact was distraction enough, Andrew took the opportunity to strike out with his free hand into the stomach of Ryder.

Ryder was half listening to Andrew’s words and half considering the idea of electrocute him right where he stood, the smartass was getting on his nerves, he was so deep into thinking and staring into the other boy blue eyes that he noticed too late the blow directed to his stomach. Ryder let go of Andrew’s wrist and stumbled backwards rubbing his hands over his sore abdomen, he felt the elecricity flowing through his body “Oh honey you shouldn’t have done that” and coiling in his hands. A crooked smile  was all the warning he gave before sending a bolt of lightning in Andrew’s direction.

We should have a party or something. There’s no reason why we can’t have a little fun while we’re stuck in here.

A party with balloons and shit? Sounds fantastic.

Again it was seeing the scattered droplets of blood before them that kept Vanessa from leaving at Ryder’s harsh words. She had to see this through, hold her ground for once. If she had just done that before, Vanessa knew that this situation wouldn’t be happening. If she had just been stronger, she could have kept Ryder from the pain he was in currently.

You don’t look too good. Are you alright?

Yes, totally, this is just my 'I'm forced under a dome with pathetic people' face.

Vanessa wanted to believe that was actually good and that this had nothing to do with the make-shift drugs she had given him. Of course, she didn’t. When his hand pulled away from his mouth, her eyes followed it, rounding at the blood. This was happening too fast. Vanessa didn’t know exactly how long it would take, if the drugs were going to kill him, but it wouldn’t be long.

I’m pretty sure that this is the first time I’ve been sober in at least three months. 

You must've had a happy three months.

Vanessa offered a small laugh at what he said, even going so much as to say “I don’t doubt it - Not that I think you’re pretty now.. Not that I think you’re ugly either I-” Oh dear, what was she saying. Vanessa tried desperately to find a way to be nice without seeming like she was trying to flatter him, which was odd. Didn’t she usually try to flatter everyone?

Andrew could hear the the slight crackle of sparks that ran through Ryder, but despite it he struck out with one of his coiled fists, aiming for the throat. Now usually, Andrew was a man of words over action, and most definitely words over violence. Still, it was something about Ryder that drove him too far over the edge. Andrew wasn’t going to give him anymore tools to play with, anything else to use against him. In mid swing, Andrew opted for his usual sarcastic lash rather than anything holding true emotion “I thought you’d be flattered to be just like me.”

Ryder didn't move seeing the fist approaching him, he collected enough energy and when the punch delivered, he grabbed Andrew's wrist holding thight. He sneered at the sacastic reply and ran his other hand through his hair, feeling it rise lightly in every direction due to static electricity "Me? Like you?" He said and sent a mild shock through the other boy, just enough to be unpleasant.

He hated to admit it, but if he didn’t it would make Ryder think he was correct, and he hated that more “Just like everyone else I had to get a handle on my power..” Andrew’s voice trailed off as he attempted to get a grip on his anger. He was so not used to feeling it that it felt out of place and very out of control. The fists remained tightened at his side, his jaw clenching and unclenching.

"Coming down your pedestal that easily?" He clapped his hands once "Admitting that you are indeed like everyone?" He took a step closer to the man, feeling electricity running across his body, he was getting too excited and now was just a couple feet from Andrew "Too bad mommy is not going to come save your pride, little nerd is all alone in this"
