Falling from the sky...literally! (Taylor Miles)

Nick watched as Taylor asked questions about her mother's power. Jaquelline nodded and looked at him kindly. "I am the spirit that was freed from my body before I died. The spirit...it holds the power and after a certain time can use it. For example, Jeda's mother was Diana ofthe Fire or Diana of the Flame. Every time Jeda uses her power, her mother can give her a hand. It is better if you ask Jeda what happened to her, but be aware that she might not tell you. You wish for your brother and father...correct?" Nick shushed her mother and smiled. "Mother will eventually explain it better soon. Okay?"

Taylor listened, though glanced down and shrugged at the mention of his dad and brother. He missed them terribly but it would be too..awkward. What if Geffory asked about his wife, er, ex-wife? That'd be a weird conversation. When Nick spoke he looked back up and nodded. "Soo, granting wishes, eh? That's gotta be pretty cool." He spoke up after a few seconds of rather eerie silence.

Jaquelline shrugged in reply. "It has its days." Nick then smiled and slipped one arm around Taylor's waist. "You look exactly the same. I hope you come visit me soon...okaa-san." She smiled and waved gently in goodbye and took Taylor's hand in hers, leading him into a deeper part of the rose gardens.

Taylor put his hand around Nick's head, resting it on her shoulders, and waved goodbye to the ghost of her mother. "Take care," he called out as Nick began to drag him deeper into the gardens.

Nick smiled and sighed happily, resting her head on Taylor's shoulder.
"So...we got much more time till school ends?" She asked curiously and smirked as she looked up at him with golden-brown eyes.

Glancing up at the sky he squinted, tying to guess what time it is. Then Taylor looked back down at Nick and shrugged. "A couple more minutes," he informered her and laid his head on hers. "This has to have been one of the most interesting, weirdest days in my whole life," the boy chuckled a bit before adding, "In a good way, of course."

Nick laughed gently and stopped walking. She turned her face to his and kissed his cheek.
"That was your reward. Oh, I don't just let my mother meet anyone." She smiled gently then took his hand.
"This was one of the strangest days of my life too...in a good way also." She then resumed walking as they had before.
