A lot of things had changed once Aurelia passed a certain age. Things that were once fun seemed......well, they were still fun but she did them less frequently and in more private settings, like playing make-believe or talking about her random, silly notions. Rather than spouting her creative energy off in random hyperactive bouts of silly antics, she had started to channel them into writing stories that she thought about turning into plays. She did other artsy things as well, like painting and clay sculpting. She wasn't that great at either but she liked to them anyway, mainly because she got to be around her best friend, Meadow, and that made it fun. Along with this weird evolution in age came some new, weird feelings that she had a hard time figuring out...especially when it came to Meadow. Aurelia loved hanging around with him but lately she found herself trying to do it more often...or going out of her way to run into him and talk to him. It seemed weird to her but she always felt a light, giddy feeling when she did and felt sad when they didn't talk or hang as much. She also felt oddly more nervous around him and started getting klutzy...more than usual. She didn't understand since he was her bestie and she was never nervous around him before....so what changed?

These weird feelings were just one of the things that frustrated her lately; she had noticed a while back that Meadow had made another friend, a girl in their classes she knew as Pepper Anne Mint. She seemed like a nice girl and liked a lot of the same things that both Aurelia and Meadow enjoyed. These were perfectly valid reasons for her to like the girl.....so why didn't she? Every time Aurelia saw them together, talking and laughing or doing something fun together, she got icky, twisty feelings in her stomach and she felt angry. She wished that Pepper wasn't around Meadow so much and sometimes wished she would just disappear entirely. Aurelia didn't like these feelings and they made her feel sick. All she ever wanted was to be friends with everyone and have fun. These nasty feelings made her wonder if there was something wrong with her.

Today she wanted to find Meadow and have a nice time doing something fun, like painting random things and watch him get paint on his face that would just stay there because he never noticed it and it was kind of cute the way he stuck his tongue out when he was really into what he was doing. She had gone back to her dorm to get some of her own painting supplies put into a bag and headed out to find him, having a hunch where he might be.
