META; The Spirit of Change ((Shifter RP))

Maddi

She shrugged slightly, dismissing her confusion "Oh it was nothing. Just thinking." She then stood and wiped some mud off of her butt "I don't know. I came out because I was worried about you." She gave him a small smile through the rain, which was starting to ease of slightly, but it was still dark and damp.

"The things you do for yourself are gone when you are gone, but the things you do for others remains as your legacy."

Ezekiel bobbed his head lightly, still not understanding, but pretending like he did. And boy, did he pull it off. "What'cha thinkin' about?" His stark tone asked, as he nudged her slightly, giving a sheepish smile- which rarely fit the sharp features of the male. However, on his next statement, his gaze softened and he gave a light smile. "That's very kind of you, Mad." He said, his smile widening a bit.

Maddi

Maddi laughed quietly, a grin plastered on her face, "What? Am I not allowed to worry about my room mate? Don't sweat it big boy." She then stood up onto her tip toes before patting him on the head, her fingers getting slightly caught in his tangled hair. She laughed again and then grabbed his fore arm "Come on, let's go inside where we can talk... And plus it's warm and dry in there."

Then without looking back she pranced towards the door, making sure to splash in a few mud puddles along the way. She finally felt like a kid again, but she knew it was not going to last very long. Soon the authorities would find them hiding here, and they would either escape or be sent to camps.

"The things you do for yourself are gone when you are gone, but the things you do for others remains as your legacy."

Ezekiel chuckled, giving his soaking wet hair a shake with a flick of his head as Maddi ruffled his hair. Hopefully he got her face a bit damp. Dont sweat it? He shook his head lightly at her comment, a sly grin forming on his sharp features. He followed along as Maddi gripped his arm and dragged him along. It would be nice to change into a fresh pair of clothes, and get warm and comfortable. Just not his current soaking wet self. Zeke was pretty sure he smelled like a wet dog. "Talk?" He gulped, faking anxiety and superstition. "Oh no, I'm in trouble, aren't I?" Ezekiel said in a mocking tone, looking down at Maddi with a goofy expression.

Maddi

Maddi grinned up at him "Oh shut up you. What's wrong with talking to my dearest friend and companion?" She shook shook her head in amusement. When they reached their home, she wrung out her hair, making sure to splash Ezekiel more than once and then went to sit down on the small couch, not caring that she was still soaked to the bone. Instead she was fiddling with the loose brown strands of hair that were falling into her eyes as she put her hair up into a sloppy bum.

"The things you do for yourself are gone when you are gone, but the things you do for others remains as your legacy."

Ezekiel let out a hearty chuckle, as he continued to fork his fingers through his hair in attempts to fix it's soaking wet state. However, it was little use. His hair was still falling into his icy eyes, but he would soon go inside and dry himself off. Tilting his head downwards towards Maddi, he shrugged lightly; a goofy expression on his face.

"Oh, nothing. It's just Girls 101; When they say "We can talk," or "We need to talk," it's normally something bad." Zeke stated matter-of-factly, as they made their way back home.

Once climbing down the concrete steps, he shook his head with a fit of laughter as Maddi threw her soaking wet self on the sofa. He made a 'scoot over' gesture with his hands before he sat down, leaning his elbow against the arm of the chair. "What do you wanna talk about then?" He asked, his face suddenly a bit bleak and grim.

Maddi

Maddi laughed and scooted over slightly when he sat down, and then stretched out slightly on the small couch, laying her head in his lap. "Well we could talk about anything really. What the weather's like or what's been bugging you all day." She looked up at him with a small smirk, but it disappeared when she saw the expression on his face "Oh. Nevermind then. We don't have to talk about that."

She sighed quietly, looking once more up at the ceiling "I understand you're upset Ezekiel, I'm not as ignorant as one might think."

"The things you do for yourself are gone when you are gone, but the things you do for others remains as your legacy."

Ezekiel shifted in his seat so it would be more comfortable for Maddi, who had now layed her head in his lap. Although he was still damp, it couldn't of been that great of a couch for the young Meta. He only listened to the first part of the sentence, the second he simply disreguarded. "Anything?" He inquired with a slight smirk before continuing. "Tell me about yourself, then." Ezekiel asked with a light chuckle before he fell silent at her last comment. "Dont worry about me. It's a waste of time." He stated simple and direct, seeing no need to advance the statement further; he simply waited for a reply with a raised brow.

Maddi

Maddi chuckled, "Well, what an interesting topic" she said sarcastically "My life was that cliche abusive parenting story. I mean I had a normal child hood of sorts, then out of the blue, Mum came down with pancreatic cancer and died when I was 14. From then on I became the perfect abusive family poster child." She sighed, thinking back to her 15th birthday.

"Jack left me pretty shortly after that and I haven't seen him since. Dad became a drunk and I was basically a slave in my own home. If I didn't do what he wanted, I got beat." She shrugged to herself and then looked back up at him "What about you?"

"The things you do for yourself are gone when you are gone, but the things you do for others remains as your legacy."

Ezekiel opened his mouth to speak, but no words came out. His icy blue eyes were widened, his face growing pale. "I'm sorry, Maddi." The young lad said, his voice merely a whisper. "That cant be easy.. I'm very sorry." Zeke gave her shoulder a squeeze, but upon her next question, Ezekiel chuckled, shrugging it off. "Oh no, it's boring anyways." He chuckled nervously, running his hand across the back of his neck. Oh, really smooth, Ezekiel. Way to evade that.
