9th November, 2008
Leona was still having problems coping with the growing telepathic ability, and since her parents had heard of a school opening up for the young gifted kids, they were adamant she attend. However, she wasn't sure she wanted to, she wasn't sure she wanted to be apart from her family, especially her little baby sister Laura.
However, after giving it some serious thought, Leona thought it might not be such a bad idea after all, maybe she'd finally be able to make friends who were in a similar position to herself. Right now Leona found herself very lonely when she wasn't around her family. Of course she loved her family and they loved her, but everybody needed that special someone in their life, and right now Leona was confused and didn't know what was happening.
Now, today she found herself at the beach in California, she was in need of a calming walk along the beach. She took her shoes off and walked along the waters edge, looking back and seeing her footprints, how sad it seemed to only see one set, when a little further along the beach she could see the two sets of footprints side by side from the couple walking hand in hand. Her mind opening up to their own and being able to hear the love they had for each other even though they weren't able to tell it to each other.
Leona's heart skipped a few beats at the romance of it all. However, she was only seventeen, not as if she'd never find someone, she had plenty of time. Now she was just trying to figure out what life could be like for her once she attended the school and began to finally get to grips with the growing power. Finally sitting down on the dry sand with her feet in the water, she brought her knees up and she rested her head on them as she went from looking out to the water and back to the couple walking further away from her.

Leon got out of work at the nearby burger shack. He took off his apron and said goodbye to his co-workers. The shack was located at the beach so he though he might go out for a calm walk. The sky was blue and it looked like a perfect day. It would be perfect to get the financial troubles of school out of his mind.
Leon took off his shoes and jumped in the water. It was hot that day so the cold water would give him a little jolt. The waves crashed on him and drenched his hair. Seeing the waves form before they happen made him think about his ability. He was lucky that his power is unnoticeable to the public. Nobody knew about his gift.
After a while, Leon noticed he still had his shirt on, the excitement of swimming in the water got to him. He took it off and tossed it away. It flew at a nearby girl only a few feet away who was walking along the sand. It landed on her head. "Oh I'm very sorry about that ! I have horrible aim..." He yelled out loudly. Leon snapped out of it and realized it was only his ability showing him visions. None of that just happened. It was an awkward moment for him at the moment. He as still holding his shirt and put it on the sand nearby. "Oh- don't mind me... I was just talking to myself..." He turned red.

As Leona sat on the beach, staring out at the water and then looking at the couple who were now so far away she could no longer see their footprints in the sand, she sighed gently, and then watched as a bigger wave came and washed the footprints she could see away. It also meant however, that it soaked the bottom of her skirt, as the wave had come up nearer to where she had been sitting on the dry sand.
"Damn" she said, but then laughed, what was a bit of wet skirt, it would soon dry off, it was warm enough she thought. Suddenly someone yelled an apology at her and said something about a terrible aim. Leona looked at the guy with a raised eyebrow, wondering what he could possibly be talking about.
Okay, she thought to herself. She was about to ask what he was apologising for, until he spoke again soon after telling her not to mind him. She wasn't slow at clocking his red face either, the guy was obviously very embarrassed by shouting out for what appeared to be no reason at all.
This bemused Leona somewhat, and she began to laugh. She forgot how good it was to laugh. "I thought you were maybe talking to an invisible person" Leona shouted at him, she wasn't slow at noticing his remarkable body either, which in turn made her face flush slightly.
"The water nice then?" she asked for no real reason, after all she had just been dipping her feet into it, but there was a big difference between dipping your feet into the water, and actually going for a swim.

Leon smiled gently and relaxed himself from the awkward moment. "Yeah, not too hot not too cold." He started paddling around and laughing. "Hop in, I've got some towels at the nearby burger shack." he beckoned her towards the water. Leon leaned back and paddled with his feed. "Oh this feels great, try it!"
The waves became more calm, Leon saw it happen in his head just a second ago, so it would occur seconds later. He got out of the water and extended his hand. "So you going in or what? It's fine, I'm not gonna try anything."

She smiled when he said the water wasn't too hot or too cold, sounded the perfect temperature for swimming. Thankfully Leona had known she was going to the beach, so she had put a bikini on underneath her clothes so if she felt like going for a swim she could.
So when he said he had towels and she should hop in, she didn't hesitate. "Sure" she said, as she stripped off her skirt and top down to her pale blue bikini, showing off her perfect figure, and her butterfly belly button ring.
When he came toward her again and extended his hand, she took his hand and smiled, "Yeah I'm coming in, and I didn't think you would be the type to try anything" pity she thought, he was perfectly toned that was for sure. Still holding his hand, she made her way into the water, and as it reached up by her knees, she realised how glorious the water felt.
"This is lovely" she said, thinking whether to just dive right in or not.

Leon smiled as Leona took his hand. "I knew you'd say something like that..." He trudged through the water as it got deeper. The water was up to the girl's hips. And all of a sudden Leon leaned back quickly, falling in the water, his hand still with Leona's. The waves crashed on top of the two. Leon was laughing as they were pummeled by waves.
The water moved slower after the wave calmed down. "So, I still don't know your name yet. Who are you mystery woman?", he asked in a playful tone. And in that second he grabbed her other hand. "My name's Leon Everett. I work at that burger shack over in case you wanted to know how I can get some towels." He gave a pleasant smile to this girl. Leon stared deep into her eyes, trying to evoke emotions within her.

"You did, did you?" Leona asked, when he said he knew she'd say what she said. She kept walking into the water with him as the water got deeper, and then as he was still holding her hand he fell backwards into the water, obviously bringing Leona down with him.
She began to laugh too, as the waves crashed around them. IT sure did feel good to be under the water. "It's lovely" she said again with another grin.
Once the waves were finished and the water became more calm he asked who she was. It was an obvious question to ask, and she was thinking the same thing of him, she didn't know him. She smiled "I'm Leona Stevens" she replied, and then she noticed he had grabbed her other hand, she certainly wasn't about to snatch her hands away.
When he said what his name was, she couldn't help but laugh a little, "How strange, Leon and Leona" but she noticed he was staring into her eyes, she found herself staring back and nodding her head when he spoke about working at the burger shack and how that's why he could get towels. "Interesting" she said, "I mean that you work at the burger shack" she added with a grin as she felt herself flushing again.

Leon smiled and laughed. He saw a vision of a gigantic wave crashing down towards Him and Leona. In his head he knew that the real wave would go crashing down on them both very soon. "Come on, we should get out of the water fast. There's going to be a big wave in a few seconds." Leon stood up and pulled Leona up.
"I'll carry you out okay?" Leon heard the wave coming. It was about 10 feet and looked pretty darn scary to the both of them. He crouched down and asked Leona to climb on his back. he would start running as soon as Leona hopped on. "It's coming!"

Leona looked at him rather strangely when he spoke about getting out of the water fast, that there was a big wave due to come. Raising her eyebrow slightly, "How come you know that?" she asked, and then she began to wonder if he too had an ability like she did. It seemed just about everybody she met recently had a power.
Then he crouched down and said he'd carry her out, so she hopped onto his back, like he suggested, "Okay then" still wondering how he could have known a huge wave was coming. As she looked back, sure enough she could see it, it was massive, she was now pretty glad to be getting carried out of there, but she couldn't help but laugh either.

Leon carried Leona on his back and smiled. "It's gonna get us!" He begins laughing from the rush of excitement and runs out towards the sand. He fell to his knees from fatigue, rushed with the excitement from avoiding a large wave. Inside, he felt kind of sick and nervous. He just carried a pretty girl and held hands with her. Leon couldn't believe he'd gone this far with someone so beautiful.
He remembered how she asked him how he knew, and as in other situations he already had a preconceived response, "Lucky guess I suppose. Really lucky in my opinion" He gave out a nervous chuckle. Leon reached for his shirt and squeezed out some water. "Oh it's still wet." Leon decided he wouldn't need it. It was a beach after all.

Leona found herself giggling when Leon said the wave was going to get them. She looked back at it again and hoped not, as it was a massive wave, it would drown her if she got caught in it. "Well run faster" she found herself saying but laughing at the same time. She couldn't believe she was being carried out the water by a handsome, handsome what? Stranger to tell the truth, because that's what he was. She may know his name, but she didn't really know him, yet.
So, he didn't have an ability then, just a lucky guess he'd said, she wondered if she should tune herself into his thoughts, but she decided not to do that. Last time she used that on someone it hadn't worked out too well, and she didn't want something else to go pear shaped.
"Just leave it out in the sun, it will soon dry" Leona said, besides, no point in covering up that perfect body she thought to herself, as she brushed her away from her face and then leaned back on the sand, and turned to look at him and smiling at him the whole time.

Leon laid down alongside Leona. They both escaped the gigantic wave and were now baking in the sand. He turns his head towards Leona and gently strokes her hair with his hand. "Glad you're okay Leona." Leon looks at the shore and sees the footprints they made. The tide slowly erases them. Leon felt happy right now. He imagined paradise would be like this.
Another vision appears. Leona is walking away quickly, looking very emotional. Leon thinks to himself, "Uh-oh, I might screw this thing up. I need to prevent this vision from happening..." Leon's visions aren't definite, they are a hypothetical simulation of what may or may not happen if he doesn't interfere with the course of events. Determined to make this new relationship work, Leon moves closer to Leona and moves in for a passionate kiss.

Laying down in the sun and letting it dry her off, and turning to face Leon she smiled, as he stroked her hair with his hand. Not too sure what this meant, she wasn't about to latch onto it, just in case she took it the wrong way, like she did so often with many other things.
"Well, of course I'm okay, you saved me" she said and grinned looking at him, looking away for just a few seconds, to see the footprints in the sand that they had both made once he had helped her down from his back. Of course the waves washed them away soon after, but she had seen two sets of footprints they had both made. Anybody else would think she was crazy, but seeing the two sets made her smile so much.
They were just lying together without any speech, and then suddenly he was moving in on her and began to kiss her. She wasn't about to knock back a kiss from a guy who looked the way he did, and seemed to have a brilliant personality, he seemed so kind, so she kissed him back. Now this is pretty awesome she thought.

Leon felt a magical sensation, he had thwarted his vision and it was gone. He felt mixed emotions about the moment. He had now kissed a woman he had only just met. The confusing part was, would he begin a relationship with this girl? He had been looking for the right one for years, but could it really be her? Leon's foresight could not simulate the outcome. He could only experience the present.
Leon backed away and laid back down on his back. He took Leona's hand and held it. "Will you be my girlfriend?" He said in the most boyish voice. He had almost no dating experience and just used what he saw in the movies to get this girl to fall in love with him. He would have never saw this coming.

The kiss was certainly magical, of that she was certain, yet at the same time, they'd only just met moments before. In many ways it was romantic, but at the same time, it was scary because she'd never kissed a guy so quickly before. Even that other day when she'd met that other guy and sort of used her powers to trick him, they hadn't kissed, and she hadn't felt bad about not kissing him.
But with Leon, she was pretty sure she'd have felt bad if she'd walked away from this meeting without kissing him. So she was glad he had kissed her and she was glad she had kissed him back. Had he enjoyed it too? She began to wonder. Then when he asked the question, she had to figure he'd enjoyed it as much as she had.
"Well nobody else has asked me to be their girlfriend recently, so I think that means I'm free" she said with a smile, as she nodded her head a little shyly, which was really silly considering she had been kissing him before. "Yes, I think I'd rather like that" she added softly.
