Chapter 11- What Lies In Your Mind?
"A-are you sure your alright?" I asked yet again.
Solus nodded then turned around, lifting up his shirt. I saw a few bruises, but no scrapes or broken bones miraculously. I sighed in relief, then stopped myself. Why am I being so worried?
He put his shirt back down and sat next to me. Looking at him, I thought about a million different questions to ask him. I started with just one.
"How come you get bruises but you don't actually get hurt?"
Solus looked at me, then took a deep breathe as he began to explain.
"My body, immortality, and blood protect me from harm."
"How so?"
"Well.. hm.. How do I explain this to a mortal?" He thought for a moment. I was slightly annoyed that he called me a mortal. It makes me feel like one more boundary went between us.
"Well, my blood carries special magic. I was born immortal, and so my body is used to staying youthful for many many years. It also makes me stronger, faster, and have better reflexes then someone who is not immortal."
I thought about that. It made perfect sense, considering how fast he got to me when I was falling, and his fight with Jonathan. But something about staying youthful bothered me.
"Then.. if you stay youthful for a long time.. do you always look like this? I mean, like a teenager?"
"Not exactly, but I will look this way for many human years to come. To get you a better understanding, I age every 55 human years. My last birthday was about a year ago"
"That's insane!?" I shouted out of pure surprise.
He smiled and shrugged, a bit self conscience.
"Seriously, you could have gone through college like 6 times by now"
"I already did. Well.. not college. Just school in general."
My jaw dropped. No wonder he was a genius. He knew all the answers.
"Can you be my study buddy?" I almost pleaded. He laughed and smiled.
"Alright. Why not?"
We sat in silence for a bit, questions still floating through my brain. Eventually I got up the courage to ask again.
"Are you an orphan?"
He looked away, and shook his head.
"I have a step-dad."
"Oh.. what happened to your parents?"
"It's a long story."
"I won't tell anyone, I swear."
He was quiet for a moment then sighed.
"Both my parents are angels. My dad died in a war when I was little, and my Mom.."
He trailed off, living through past memories.
"Your mom..?"
He didn't answer me. I decided to change the subject.
"So your step-dad, what's he like?"
Solus looked at me, then looked away again.
"He's... fine."
Something was definitely not fine, but I didn't want to bother Solus with my personal questions. I had a good idea what was going on between them.
Why oh why did I have to be so curious?

Susie went on a walk across See More the park. Suddenly--
The word 'suddenly' adds suspense, and makes you want to know what happens next. You read on, often quicker, to match the pace of the story.
When your ending a chapter, put something that finishes your thought, yet has potential to open up the next chapter. I'm not sure how to make an example of this, so just look at the last sentence or words at the end of my chapters. It SHOULD make you think, make you wonder, what is going to happen next. Or even make some theories in your head for later in the book.
Out of curiosity, what do you think is going to happen next in my book?
@moonston
I hope I'm not confusing. that's one tip.
@moonston
For example, Ash (which can be a boy or a girl), has problems with their magic, and feels like Solus is kind and mysterious. She thinks he is powerful, but holding See More back.
In Solus's opinion (which I don't want to spoil anything so I'll be vague), doesn't feel right in the class. He is different, and everyone knows he's differernt, so he hides his secrets and thoughts well. In chapter 7, he starts taking more notice in Ash, cause she helped him.
@moonston
