Meeting.

(Book + Movie AU)

'I think the others are in there.' said Fiona, pointing at a room across the corridor. B.Miss P and M.Miss P had agreed to meet. So, we were on our way to meet them. But I was nervous about something. It was to do with one of the children.

I suddenly felt a hand on shoulder. 
'You alright?' asked Millard.
'I'm just a bit nervous. What if my peculiarity doesn't work on the other Millard when I reveal it? I don't want to upset him.'
'I'm sure it'll be fine. You can just lie about it, anyway.'
I looked up at him.
'Millard, you know I hate lying.'
'I know. Just bringing it up.'
'We're here!' said Jacob as he opened the door. 'Hey!'

I scanned the room of children and let out a sigh of relief when I saw Millard. Literally, when I saw him. He was visible to me. I could see him.
'Told you you'd be alright.' Millard whispered to me.
I nodded at him.

When introduction was over, (and most of the faces in the room were puzzled) M.Claire pointed at me. 'But then, who is she?'

I stepped forward with my hands together. 'Hi, I'm Katelyn and I often visit them sometimes.'
'So, what's your peculiarity?' asked M.Enoch, slightly stepping forward.
'Yeah, what is it?' asked M.Bronwyn.
'Why does this look so familiar?' B.Emma whispered amongst us.
'Millard, can you come here please?' I asked as he came over.
M.Hugh raised an eyebrow. 'Hm?'
I pointed to him. 'You know how he's invisible?'
Everyone nodded.
'Well to me, he's not.'
Everyone's eyes widened. 
'Wow.' said M.Jacob.
'That's amazing!' said M.Olive.
I smiled at all of them, but stopped when I saw M.Millard. Just as I'd suspected, his arms were crossed and he looked a bit...hurt.
'Millard, you alright?' I said as I came up to him.
He nodded. 'Fine.'
'Sorry, I think he's just a bit jealous that you can't see him.' explained M.Horace.
I gave a confused look. 'Who said I can't see him.'
Everyone's (Movie) widened eyes opened even wider. A few gasps, too. 
I looked back at M.Millard. His eyes were slightly shiny, like he was about to cry.
'Awww, Millard it's ok.' I said as I wrapped my arms around him. I felt him hugging back.
His head came just under my eye. Unlike B.Millard, I came up to the top of his shoulder. So I was taller in this AU, but shorter in the one I came from.

'So,' said M.Fiona. 'Are you and your Millard-'
Our heads snapped in her direction with a 'no.' expression. (Although, she could only see mine.)
She lifted her hands up. 'Nevermind...'
